Best casual viet place in Cary!…read more Can't beat the price,taste, quality, and service! I come here at least once a week for lunch, but tbh I can probably afford to eat here daily :) I'll be coming by more often bc WOW! They do a great job. Their lunch specials are great, egg rolls fresh, pho is OK. The meat is chewey and can see the powder in broth. Cheap but phoExpress or PhoKitchen serve a better pho. BUT this place is called Bee Banh Mi and I still stand by their sandwich. Best banh mi in the area. Fries are awesome. Everything else is very good but the pho meat is chewey Thanks so much team! Get a banh mi or a lunch special, or bao buns, fries, egg rolls, fried rice. FYI Shabu shabu is a style of meat cut that cooks as soon as it hits soups, if bee banh mi can cut their meat thinner (nice knives + nicer meat quality), they can raise their pho price to 16-18$ and sell more! Literally just the meat thickness is the thing that throws off the Pho. Anyways, good job team, you guys cheer me up every lunch.

This is 5 star not because it's the most amazing restaurant or banh min of all time, but because it…read moredoes exactly what it's supposed to and doesn't pretend to be more than that. 5 stars because: - quality and quantity of food for the value keeps me coming back (and I'm Vietnamese, grew up in California) - it's quick and accessible from my workplace I wouldn't come here to impress someone, but I would bring them here if we wanted some viet food that tasted good and doesn't break the wallet. Lunch special is the best--$11.50 for a banh min, drink, and side. Employees take care of you but not overly motherly. That's all I really need for my lunch breaks. In case you're wondering what I get. I do the pork banh mi, Thai tea, and Cajun French fries (comes with sauce). I upgrade to nem nuong when I'm stressed and want to treat myself. Honestly, the restaurant feels akin to other family owned Vietnamese restaurants I've eaten at with good food at good prices. If you want fancy and clean and instagramable, don't come here. If you just want a solid place with solid eats at a price, this'll hit the spot nicely.

The also has all the side condiments you would want to go with your pho which is hard to find around here. The service was also amazing, they sat us down quickly, took our orders almost right away, and the food came out in about 10-15 minutes. The restaurant itself was well decorated, bright, and clean. I will 100% be coming back when I am in the area.

Vietnamese Sub…read more Venue: medium sized place for sub/sandwich place. It's order - pay and you can seat yourself place. Food: tried Paris bahn mi in Orlando and decided to try here as well. Ordered grilled pork bahn mi and Thai green tea. My honest opinion, I've had better and worse. The meat portion inside the sub is good. However it is lacking in flavor within the meat marinate or the sauce inside the sub. So far the banh mi from pho Thien phat has the best bahn mi in Cary in my opinion. The Thai tea lacked in sugar and very strong tea. I typically order less sugar at boba shops but I did not here just wanting to taste the original flavor of the house, I was not impressed. Service: you order, pay and pick up your food. The lady from the kitchen brought the hot subs out for us which I thought it was very kind. Price: well- the price of food has two versions: cash price and credit card price. Sigh...

A pretty standard place if you're trying to get some Vietnamese food. The pho was pretty average,…read morenothing bad to say about it, but also nothing particularly great. The Banh Mi used a softer bread, which I appreciate, but I know some people prefer the harder baguette bread. I would say its worth getting if its near you and you just want a place to eat at.

The menu is pretty extensive, although I have to admit most of the time I go for the pho, because…read morethere are not a lot of good choices in this area. That being said, the pho would be good in any area. The broth is rich and developed, the accoutrements are good and fresh, nice been sprouts, super fresh basil, nice jalapenos. You can go for the tradition pho tai to a number of specials with lots of entrails, if you like that sort of thing (not for me). Also, the gyoza and spring rolls are very good for appetizers. My peeps always get something different, but not talking for them, except that they say that their meal was good. Service wise, they are very nice, fast, and polite. They generally check back to see if you need anything, but if you forget, the place is small, so just give them a head nod or a wave and they will come over. The inside is nice, and comfortable, with lots of large and small booths and tables. I will always go back their for my pho fix.

Delicious!! This was…read moremy first time having ramen, and my friend suggested we go here, and I'm so glad we did! Noodle Blvd is located in a spot that you could easily miss, but it's easy to get back on track. I pulled into the gas station parking lot beside the restaurant, then just turned right into the restaurant parking lot. The parking lot is fairly small, so be warned about that. My friend was there when I arrived, and he sat at the bar. When I walked in the door, I was greeted with smiles and waves. It was very inviting, which is fitting for a ramen restaurant. My friend ordered us Lychee Margaritas, and oh my goodness, it was so good! We decided to visit right at opening on a Saturday, so the bartender was still preparing some of the ingredients needed for the margarita. The bartender informed us that it's usually better once a key ingredient sits for a while, but I loved the drink regardless. I ordered edamame for an appetizer, which came quickly and was good! Since I've never had ramen before, I asked our server what he recommended, and he told me about some of their most popular dishes. He told me the N9. Chicken Curry Ramen was a favorite of his and the patrons, so I decided to order that. It came quickly, and I was immediately in HEAVEN upon my first bite. I loved every bite after! I decided to play it safe with the spice and got level 2, but I can definitely go up a level or 2 since I love spicy. Highly recommend, and I will be back! Worth the drive from Clayton, where I live.

The service was good, waitress was pleasant, no issues there…read more A busy weekday night, a loud group at the big table in the middle didn't bother me as I was at the bar. The short rib ramen was good, but the noodles were short, like they were cut or made short on purpose. The shrimp shumai was disappointing. Small bite sized portions, but they were soft. After cutting into one, I found out that they use rice as a filler with a bit of shrimp. I've never seen rice used in shumai, unless it's Shanghai sticky rice shumai. Also got a unagi don togo, it was good, just a bit small on the portion of eel, but it's hard to mess up an unagi don.

The only thing we felt was missing from the menu was an ability to do both in one meal. A half pho, half banh mi option would be a perfect addition to the menu and has been seen at other similar establishments. I opted for the pork banh mi and it was good. The bread was both soft and crunchy as French bread should be. The pork was decently portioned and the accompaniments were great including the aioli. It has a combo meal option with a drink and fries so I also had peach bubble tea. It wasn't as sweet as I prefer, but still good. The service was quick and attentive. They came to the table to take our order or you can order up front to go. It's super casual as it is in a shopping center and it was clear they got a lot of to-go orders. I would definitely be back and glad we happened upon it!!

My husband and I came here for a late lunch after moving to the area a few months ago. The service…read morewas genuinely excellent -- the staff were incredibly friendly, patient, and thoughtful. There's a sign noting that food may take time (this isn't fast food), but everything came out in a reasonable timeframe and in the right order: drinks, appetizers, then entrées. We even witnessed the staff handle a very rude customer with impressive kindness and professionalism. The restaurant is simple and spacious, and we had plenty of room for our mobility devices without feeling in the way, which we really appreciated. We ordered the salty lemonade, strawberry shake with boba, rice cake appetizer, meatball pho, and combination fried rice. With tip, the total came to about $80 for two people. Overall, the food was good, though the pho left a bit to be desired. There was a slight sweetness or something missing from the broth, and the noodles absorbed a lot of liquid in the leftovers. It wasn't the best pho I've had, but not the worst -- the search for the best pho in the Triangle continues. My husband loved the fried rice and finished it entirely. The menu is extensive, so I'll try something different next time. We'll likely return since it's close to our apartment and there's plenty more to explore on the menu.

We opted for the shrimp spring rolls (fresh) which were delicious, and the peanut dipping sauce was also great. I opted to make my own rice bowl with lemongrass beef and lots of veggies, which I loved. My husband loved his pho, as well. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the ambiance was clean and fun (I liked the art on the walls). We bought bottles of water before realizing they had cups and a cooler in the corner, so that's the only thing I'd do differently in the future. Very good!

My Mom lives in Raleigh and comes often. She was so excited to have us try her favorite Pho spot…read more The outside and inside are not very fancy, but it gets the job done. We were seated right away, the server was super fun and friendly. There are for sure regulars that come here. The server knew a lot of people by name, for pick up orders and sitting inside. The Pho is for sure the best thing on the menu. If I would have only had the Pho it would have been a five star experience. I however had the combination and bbq chicken Banh mi Sandwiches and the shrimp spring rolls. The spring roll was crispy on the outside but still frozen on the inside. They remade it and the outside tasted like burnt oil and the inside was still cold. The Banh mi Sandwiches were full of super fresh veggies, I loved that! The downside is the combination one had no Mayo so I had to ask for some. The other downside was that the bbq chicken one had no sauce at all and very little chicken. Again, the veggies were really crunchy and fresh which I loved. Overall I would for sure go back for the Pho, it was delicious. One of the best broths I've had at a Pho spot.

The service was friendly. I was greeted as soon as I walked into the store. It's a small space, so there isn't to much to it. They were cleaning (rather sweeping the floor) and stopped to greet me and take my order. Everyone had on masks that I could see in front. In the back, I did see after ordering a few without their masks on (if that's something you need to take in consideration, then take as needed). They woman that took my order, washed her hands and gave me a menu. She wanted to know if there was anything in particular I was looking for and if I would be dinning in or take out (if you do take-out, they ask that you make your order and then return to your car to await for the food). I explained I just wanted something to go and from there I looked over the menu. When I asked about how some of the items were prepared, she quickly explained and never gave any attitude or anything about my many questions. From my questions, she gathered that I wanted something along the lines of vegetarian and suggested about four different dishes that I might like. Since I wasn't tooooo hungry, I went with the Nem Chay Cuốn Bbq Vegi Spring Rolls (2): Soft rice paper wrapped around bbq Vegi, & lettuce, served with house special sauce. Total: $5.41 What a treat! These were so fresh and tasty! Great mixture of herbs, noodles, and tofu. Nothing was too overwhelming - all just right! The dipping sauce!!?! I could drink it (well, maybe just use it on MORE rolls!). From what I gathered from my visit, it was a good spot for something simple. I do have friend that comes here every time they come to town to order their shrimp fried rice - they state it is amazing. So, there are two dishes that I can tell you about - the rolls from my personal experience and the fried rice that my friend raves about without any shame!

We did BBQ pork skewers for appetizers and pad lao - pretty similar to Thailand's pad Thai. Both were really good! They had this ube cocktail and it was very delicious. Happy to find this in NC of all places :) Now the other offender is that they claim to be an "authentic" Asian restaurant and misspelled "banh mi" but then showing "banh" correctly on the menu item not too far from it...
