    the picture shows a grilled chicken banh mi & beef bulgogi banh mi w/ some garlic salt fries. the fries could definitely be fried a bit more but the sandwiches were both delicious!! the chicken was juicy and the bread was perfect - crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. the bulgogi was sweet and tender - not overly sweet though. service was quick and the shop has enough seating for about 10 small families of (2-4)!? giving four stars instead of 5 because of the cleanliness of the tables and seats - it is self clean after you eat so the tables were super sticky .. we had to clean it with hand sanitizer ourselves prior to sitting down.

    Beef bulgogi banh mi and took the fried egg from the rice plate

    Really enjoyed our food from here. We tried the fried egg rolls, the popcorn chicken and rice dish and beef bulgogi banh mi with extra aioli. All of the food was delicious-5/5 on all accounts! My son barely let me try a bite of the egg roll!! We also tried their lychee drink w rainbow jelly and Viet iced tea. The tea was too strong for me but it's my first time having it. The lychee drink was really refreshing and the right amount of sweetness. The popcorn chicken had a nice flavor profile of salt pepper and some briny taste! Super crispy and flavorful. The beef bulgogi sandwich was also great w tender meats and lots of fresh veggies, the bread was crunchy and fresh. All of our food was brought to our table within 10 min of us ordering at the counter. 10/10 would recommend for your banh-mi cravings!

    Nice clean cute interior, employees were masked. I ordered fries (good spicy Mayo dipping sauce) , viet fish sauce wings (very yummy, on the sweet gooey side ) , coffee frappe (perfectly made-- creamy and yummy), and lychee kumquat tea with 25% sugar (still sweet but refreshing). They also have Vietnamese sandwiches and a limited appetizer menu (fried squid, popcorn chicken...etc). In harvest green area close to grand Pkwy.

    Bulgogi Banh mi, spicy tamarind wings, espresso brown sugar with oat milk

    Clean and casual vibe. Friendly customer service. -Pho broth was flavorful, would definitely recommend 8/10 -Tamarind wings: Flavor was amazing, very similar to twin peaks spicy Thai chili wings. The wings were not crispy and definitely could have been cooked longer 4/10 -bulgogi bang mi: meat was cooked well, good flavor, classic Banh mi. -espresso brown sugar oatmilk: I got it with less sugar than the regular which made it just the right level of sweetness. Definitely better than Starbucks, would get again! 9/10

    Combo Banh mi

    First time trying Om Nom Cafe! I got the combo Banh mi and really enjoyed it. The bread was toasted perfectly and the pork was savory and flavorful! I also had an original milk tea with boba that was pretty good. Not the best, but it could be because it was watered down after it was brought home. Still, a solid spot if you want some tasty Vietnamese sandwiches!

    Interior still the same as last year but with less tables and more spread out due to pandemic.

    Overall great banh mi and other selections for being in Richmond so no need to drive to Chinatown (10-15 minutes away). Drinks are always delicious. My go to are always their kumquat with tea and boba. Boba are cooked well where it's still chewy and not stuck to your teeth. Ambience is always clean and simple for dining in or just chilling with family/friends. Every time I come here, I always see the owner. Not sure if she ever gets a day off! Prices are reasonable, considering the locations and not that many competitors in the area (as of right now). The only thing I dislike is the drinks don't have that typical plastic seal on top so when I do order a lot to-go, it can get quite messy with the big open on the top of each drinks.

    For someone that's used to eating at Don's on bellaire, this place is not bad for the area! I love how they cut the ends of their banh mi so it's not hard and easier to eat. The meat is flavorful and bread is the perfect crisp. As for the bulgogi fries, I like how have some sauce on the side in the case you would like to dip. Fries are nice and thick. The only downside is that there was not that much meat, especially when you're paying $7+ for it. The staff was kind and attentive, I would come by again when I'm craving banh mi and not wanting to go to bellaire.

    Delicious the best BahMi in Richmond Texas so far! The popcorn chicken is so delicious as well and the fries too love it

    Passion fruit green tea and jasmine green milk tea

    Still love this place. Just here to add the the fried egg rolls are superb and so is the Thai tea (go ahead and get the big one, you're welcome). Again, the best banh mi I've ever had. Super filling, always kore than enough protein. I always ask for extra carrots and aioli. Please stop by and support our Richmond small businesses!

    Om Nom Cafe is a delight to the neighborhood since there really isn't a Bahn Mi place located around the Harvest Green/Aliana area of Richmond, TX. Yes, there are Vietnamese restaurants, but not a "Casual, here for a quick bite" kind of place. The space is clean and modern and the service is friendly. The location just opened so they told me both times I came here, that it will take 10 minutes or so to make my sandwich. I'm okay with that, as long as it's good. I'm sure as the place matures, that may change, or it may not. In either case the bahn mi was good. Was it the BEST I ever had? No. IMO that honor goes to Vietwich in Stafford. They USED to be close to this neighborhood but moved away. So for now, we have Om Nom and it's not bad. TRY IT. They also serve bubble teas and such which I have never tried, but they are affordably priced. I need to come back and try the soups which seem to be offered once in a while (off menu). By the way, if they ask if you want to add a fried egg-- just say yes.

    Much better streamlined ordering. Go to order here is the Grilled Banh mi and Taro slushee (frozen drink) with Lychee jelly. The quantity is really decent. Could they do rewards on phone number instead of remembering to take the card each time, perhaps?

    Grilled pork banh mi, (lack of) seasoned fries, limeade

    Grilled pork banh mi was delicious and served on good, crusty bread, but it needs more meat. Seasoned fries were hardly seasoned but came out hot. Loved the limeade. Service was friendly. Will be back.

    Came back to my go-to banh mi place around my work. About $7 per sandwich isn't too bad. I love adding extra pate and butter on my sandwiches. Pork banh mi is usually my order but they offer many diff things as well. They just recently started doing pho on fri/sat/sun for only $12!

I really wanted a fried chicken sandwich but they only have grilled chicken sandwiches. They offered to use chicken tenders but I declined and went with a burger instead. Ketchup is kept cold. I like that. Bacon cheeseburger was fine. The burgers appear to be frozen patties. The bacon was salty and cooked well, not too crispy and not floppy. The lettuce was shredded, could've used more. They put both mayo & mustard on their burgers. The hickory burger was ok. You couldn't really taste the bbq sauce. Tots were cooked extra crispy. Luckily that's how I like them but most customers probably would've preferred less crispy; like my husband. The crinkle fries were also a little too crispy for husband. Not too crispy for me. Overall the meal wasn't bad. It's what you'd expect for a small family grill. Fairly priced for the economy we are in. Two combo burger meals ran us $30.

That's when we came across Cup N Char and noticed they offered Detroit-style pizza--something neither of us had tried before. We stopped by to order in person, and right away the staff made a great impression. Everyone was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant itself was very clean. There were also a few groups dining in, which gave the place a nice, welcoming vibe. Since we wanted to try a variety, the staff recommended ordering a half-and-half medium pizza, which turned out to be the perfect suggestion. We went with half Italian Mob (pepperoni, onions, banana peppers, and sausage) and half Grassy Chicken (chicken, onions, and banana peppers). Both sides were flavorful, with the Detroit-style crust really standing out--crispy on the edges and soft inside. We also ordered the chicken wings with the original hot sauce, and those were a great addition. The flavor was rich and buttery--definitely a must-have alongside the pizza. Overall, the portions were generous, and we loved being able to mix and match flavors. This is a spot we'll definitely be coming back to for takeout pizza and wings.

It's not cut into squares like traditional Detroit pizza and it's not quite as over-the-top thick. It's more like a slightly thicker than normal crust with charred edges. When I first arrived, my brother and his friend had been there for a bit and already had a couple of pizzas. I nabbed a slice of each and thought both were perfectly fine, but not really remarkable. In fairness, they had been sitting out for about 20 minutes at that point. I then ordered a supreme for me and my friend to share. At first, I had kind of a similar outlook as the slices I'd tried earlier: just okay. But as I kept eating, it really grew on me and I enjoyed it. The table shared some pizza rolls and some fries, which I snacked off of and enjoyed. Overall, I wish this place wasn't so far from my house because I'd love to try it again, but it was a good experience for our group overall.

First, tonight my family and I came into the restaurant and were not greeted by any hostess or employee for about 7-10 minutes. We understood though because everyone seemed to be in a rush since it was busy. We patiently waited then we were finally seated. Our server took our drink orders first as usual, got us our drinks then walked away. We waited a good while for her to come back since we were wanting to order an appetizer, and that took forever. Once we finally were able to place our appetizer order, it took another 10 minutes for it to come out. Again, we tried our best to be nice since it was busy. Now to the meals.. we put in our order for our dishes and proceeded to wait about 30-35 minutes. There is only 3 of us! Once everyone got their meals we realized it just.. wasn't the best. - My mother ordered a customized pick 3 meal, her roasted chicken sandwich didn't have any roasted chicken, she said it was all lunch meat? And her bread was as hard as a rock. The "truffle fries" that she had to pay extra for didn't have any truffle, when asked about it.. we were informed it was just truffle "oil". What. Lastly, she didn't even receive her soup. They forgot about it. We had to remind them about the forgotten soup for my mother to finally receive it. She said it was not even good. - My mediterranean chicken bowl was..okay, but I did notice that last time I was here I had a good amount of chicken. This time.. I had barely any chicken. We received 0 REFILLS on our drinks, so by the time we ordered dessert we couldn't even finish it since we were so thirsty and the chocolate was so rich. In the end, the rush died down so much where once we sat up to go we were wondering why service was still awful when no one was in the restaurant. The manager did come to apologize, both our server and manager were very nice. They decided to take off the sandwich from our bill and remake the sandwich and soup to go. Once we got home, my mother realized the soup in our to go package was actually the correct soup, and that at the restaurant she has no idea what soup they brought her. Overall, this experience tonight has been awful. We went home thirsty and hungry.
