So I decided to finally stop in when I was nearby for work. But they're obviously known for is their banh mis. My sister had brought back the grilled pork sandwiches home and have had that and it was wonderful. Since she doesn't like pork belly I decided to order this for myself. The baguette has a nice crunch to it but also where it's not sharpen cuts the roof of your mouth. The box has a cool design so it doesn't get steamy and ruins the texture of your sandwich. They also put pickled vegetables on the side and a bag so you're able to add a little or as much as you would like. Everything is very tasty and what a great mouth feel you have from the pork to the veggies to you the bag get and also the sauce and clearness they're all works together very well.

The inside is pretty small, so it might be hard to find a spot to sit and eat if that's the plan. My friend and I were lucky to find a seat, but it would definitely be easier to take to go.

AWFUL is the one word I can describe about my experience with this restaurant. My husband suggested that we try this new place out. At first entering inside the environment takes you back 50 years which is sort of interesting. The wait for our food was 40 minutes! this is pretty grueling especially when you have a toddler and a baby who is hungry! It got us even more angry when my husband was calming our daughter down as the wait was getting too long and saw the plates that we later were served was our plates sitting on the serve counter for at least 10 minutes! After the long wait, to get what we did NOT order was tickling our patience. The food was so bad and worst off not fresh. We complained to the waitress of the bad service and without trying to hear or understand our situation, she excused the restaurant that the bad service was because they were really busy. The restaurant seating was about 90% full but if they couldn't really handle that then they should seek more staffs to be able to serve the customers. I would not suggest this restaurant to anyone. A waste of your money and service is horrible. read more

Strongly suggest you avoid Bun n Burger on Tuesdays (the owner's day off). Food was marginal. Ordered my potatoes well done and crispy and they were served white and soft. I returned them for more cooking and 15 minutes later they were returned to me in nearly the same condition. Breakfast service was so slow I could have ordered lunch before I got my check. Two people asked if I wanted more coffee and neither of them brought it. I love Bun n Burger on days when the owners are here but I won't come back on Tuesdays. read more
