Delicious food at a great price! This is a great spot for picking up a quick but filling meal. I got the pork belly bowl with half rice and half salad. The pork belly has great flavor and they give you a nice portion. The pickled veggies and sauces to add on are great too! read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Pork Belly Rice - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A staple during my college years, I stopped by Sizzle & Crunch this past weekend. Craving banh mi, I was initially going to go to Saigon Deli. However, it was closed, so I went right around the corner and went to Sizzle & Crunch instead. As iconic as Sizzle & Crunch is, their banh mi is not the best. They don't toast the bread roll, so it tasted cold and unfresh. They also don't add pate, so it lacked flavor. For $11 after tax, their banh mi is definitely not worth the price I paid, especially since there are more affordable and better options right around the corner. Despite my banh mi review, they are best known for their bowls and plates, as I frequented them during my college years. I will definitely get that the next time I visit Sizzle & Crunch and update my review! read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Grilled Pork Banh Mi - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This review is just based on the mango frosted Swirl drink that I ordered. I passed by this shop and the mango frosted caught my eyes. I ordered one and when I looked at the process of the making it I just like did I made av wrong choice? After it is done I am like this doesn't looks like the drink on the picture. About the taste I expect a bit sour and sweet and it is just sweet. I also expect mango taste and I just don't taste any mango. I just think I made wrong decision to order based on the picture without checking. I just cannot recommend this drink as I threw away most of it away. For me at least make it more to the mango flavor and the sweet and sour taste. Looks like the store is famous with Banh mi and rice bowl as I see many orders of those. read more

Sizzle & Crunch, the Vietnamese Chipotle, is a staple of my college experience and hasn't changed much! Out of many visits, I think I've gotten food poisoning once before which was not fun, but the food is good value and delicious, so I kept coming back. Fast, relaxed service with self serve utensils. Smaller seating area available with a restroom available. Can't go wrong with any bowls here, make sure to get the green sauce if you don't have the cilantro tastes like soap gene! Would personally go elsewhere for banh mi primarily due to cost. They taste great but might as well get a bowl. read more

Although the line was long the food was delicious, we got a chicken Bahn mi, tofu bowl and Thai milk tea. The Thai milk tea was not filled all the way and was mostly ice:( it was good but not worth $6.99 with no toppings. read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Thai Milk Tea $6.99 - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

It wasn't sizzle nor crunchy lol Deli/ subway style way of getting your banh mi, nothing wrong with that but the bread wasn't toasted... so there was definitely no crunch and was cold. The grilled pork itself was fine has texture but the pork belly was sad and had some kick to it ... it was very it textured and all I could taste was the slight kick but none of the usually umami flavor that comes the the pork fat... For $12 a banh mi there are definitely better places, no pate, no crisp bread .... Very do not recommend ... maybe their plate dishes are better? read more

I hear all the time that Sizzle n crunch is like Chipotle but for Viet cuisine and I feel like it's accurate. Definitely not your most authentic Vietnamese food but it's crazyyy good. From my experience the workers are always generous with the servings and there's plenty of seating in and outside the restaurant. read more

A friend and I ordered take out and it was ready within 10 minutes! Super fast and delicious food. We both enjoyed the chicken rice bowl with egg, the fish sauce was a great addition to the veggies! It's fresh, quick and filling! This is a great healthy pick me up if you need something that's convenient. We didn't try their drinks but next time I'm in the area I would love to try their lychee ice tea! read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Grilled Chicken Rice - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Decently priced Asian flavored food that hits the spot. I got the pork rice bowl which was about $11. The pork has a wonderful char flavor, super tender as well and chopped into chunks for each bite. I love the mix salad to help freshen up the taste and bring some brightness. The veggies are fresh and crisp as well. I like some spiciness so I got jalepenos in mine but next time I would omit this because the seeds get everywhere and surprised me with very strong spiciness in random bites. You HAVE to get their fish sauce with your order! It's the perfect mixture of sweet, sour, and umami. I ordered online but I noticed when picking up the order in person that the online price was about $3-$4 more before any service fees (on Fantusn at least) So for those who like to order beforehand and pick up in store, just be aware. read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Grilled Pork Rice - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This was highly disappointing. Beforehand, I assumed that this would be a banh mi and maybe simple com tam restaurant. However, this experience was comparable to Chipotle-very quick/sloppy and unauthentic. I ordered the pork plate, which vaguely resembled Vietnamese grilled pork + com tam/broken rice. We went later in the day with no line. Yet, the employees still slopped and spilled the ingredients into the small container. I typically never complain about com tam, but this was far from it. Unlike the actual dish, everything tasted too greasy. The pork should be seasoned and juicy, but instead, it was mostly fat and drenched in a Korean-like sauce. The broken rice ended up soaked in the sauce, too. Normally, the vegetables are cut larger and eaten on the side, but these veggies are shredded and diced. This is ok. However, I would have loved for the carrots to be pickled like do chua. The only thing I liked was the fried egg. On top of that, for a small bowl, it was quite expensive. Overall, I suggest a more intentional approach and cleaner flavors. read more

The food here is fantastic. It's either a sandwiches or plates of food Vietnamese style. I ended up going to this place because the line was long outside, which is always a great sign. There's some seats to the left of the register, but not a lot. read more

Amazing fast casual joint for Viet. Heard a lot of good things about this place so I'm glad I got yo try it. I got the Grilled Pork Rice Bowl and it was sooo delicious. I love the balance of rice, meat, and veg. There were some straight up pieces of fat, which I didn't love, but they give a massive portion overall so I can overlook that. The workers are also super friendly. Will definitely come back! read more

Coming all the way to UW and turned away at the door because they decided to close earlier than claimed however they are letting people who place order online walk right in to pick up sounds crazy to me. read more

Sizzle and Crunch Vietnamese grill is a great, healthy version of Vietnamese street food. There are options from vermicelli bowls, rice bowls and banh mi sandwiches. I got the rice bowl. If you are familiar with Chipotle, it's similar where you have a base and protein and the toppings are your choosing and free. It's a great deal and reasonably priced. The food is pretty good and filling. The service wasn't exceptional...pretty basic. I wouldn't consider the restaurant a place to dine in. read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Beef rice bowl - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Had lunch here with a few friends, and it was so amazing! Had never been to this place before, but I had heard so many great things. You order at the front at the cashier, and it's very fast. I got a bowl with chicken and a lot of other veggies, half rice half salad. It was extremely filling and I couldn't even finish half the bowl. A great price to considering how much they put in. They were also very generous with the meat portions. It's a pretty small place but inside there are some tables in the back. So it might be hard to find a table if you have a large group and it's during rush-hour. Overall, the service was really good as well. read more

Omg best find ever!!! 16.99$ after tip and tax and you are leaving full!! Food is always fresh and staff super friendly!! I work close by and eat there very often, don't go when I'm there my break isn't that long read more

One of the best parts about banh mi is the satisfying crunch when you bite into it, so the untoasted hoagie roll they use for their banh mi really takes away from the experience. We got the grilled pork, and the pork was decently seasoned, but not the smoky grilled pork I'm used to with typical banh mi. In addition to not being authentic, it wasn't the best tasting in terms of sauce (no pate) and toppings ratio. Maybe I'll try their bowls some day, but if you're looking for a good, authentic banh mi, try Saigon Deli around the corner! read more

I rarely give out 5 stars but this place really hit the spot! Not only the food is tasty, the concept, the pricing and 'healthy' food is worth a five star mention. Agreed with Thao, an inspiring Yelper, this place is an Asian Chipotle. It is the 'burrito bowl' if you get the rice bowl here. The chicken rice bowl with eggs is the perfect comfort food. I just tell them 'everything' as in I want all the veggies topping after I choose the protein. The shredded carrot is the marinated carrot you get at Vietnamese restaurants, very refreshing. The acidity from the sweet and sour taste of the carrots makes the salad portion of the bowl appetizing. The green sauce is the perfect 'dressing'. The sunny side up style egg just perfectly complete the taste, texture of every bite. I cannot wait to go back to try out the other proteins although the chicken was amazing. Service like any 'fast food' or chipotle is super fast. Don't expect much either the ambiance with just a few chairs on bar stool. It is best to grab and go as I can see a line at peak hours. Yes! Please open one in Bellevue!!!! It would be 'dangerous' for me as I'll go every week. :) read more

Amazing Vietnamese restaurant near the university! A small place with some tables in the back. Got lucky and snatched a large table for our group. Ordered at the front, and the staff was friendly! Got the grilled chicken bowl, and it was SO enormous. Was not able to finish it all. The meat was fresh, as were the veggies. The egg on top pulled it altogether. The sauce was really good too!! Also ordered a lemonade, which was very tasty. For the price and portion size, this place is amazing!! read more

Sizzle&Crunch - Grilled beef rice bowl with all the toppings! - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

As a Vietnamese person, this is possibly the worst banh mi I've ever had. The bread, which is essential to the identity of this kind of sandwich, is entirely wrong. It's like a hoagie roll. I had their banh mi at the SLU location last year and that bread wasn't great either but this is on another level. There are Vietnamese bakeries and delis that make Vietnamese baguettes in Seattle that can supply so this is not excusable imo. Other Vietnamese restaurants can get the right bread, why not here. As for the fillings, it's ok. Ingredients are fresh. Not the most flavorful but it works. I also had a rice bowl here, reminiscent of com tam. Rice bowl was much better, though fish sauce wasn't the best either. Workers were kind and speedy so I gave a star for that. At the end of the day, it's like chipotle to Mexican food. It's not authentic really but it works I guess. I'm not gonna come back when there's other smaller Viet restaurants in the u-district I can support read more

The "OKAY" health department rating is a bit concerning... but we decided to give it a shot regardless. Glad we did! It was quite filling and delicious after a good bouldering session.

The food was delicious,healthy and so tasty. The sauces were yummy, meat was tender. We got a pork bowl, pork belly bowl and a bahn mi

Food 8/10 Service 8/10 Ambiance 7/10 The food tastes fresh and healthy. Definitely a nice post workout meal. Portions are also great, but flavor can get repetitive. Workers there are great. Place is a bit small and can get packed during lunch/dinner time read more

Only rating the good because I ordered delivery but I will definitely be eating here again. I decided to try it because the rice bowls looked fresh and tasty. It did not disappoint. I got the pork which had a few fatty pieces but personally I love that so it was a plus for me. The veggies were super fresh and the sauce was pretty tasty too. The meat portion was generous and I feel this is a good deal overall. I even have some leftover for a late night snack! It it's this tasty delivered, I really need to get in to try it as soon as it's made. YUM! read more

I would not call the sandwiches they make here Banh Mi's. The bread is too dense and not toasted, the carrots do not taste pickled, and overall, the sandwich lacks flavor and expectation. Like comparing Taco Bell to authentic Mexican food. But the ingredients tasted fresh, and the workers were nice and quick with the orders. read more

I ordered through Uber eats for weekday lunch pick up and that was mega clutch. There was a line out the door (about 10-15min wait) when I arrived because of the lunch rush. The location is right off UW campus so the streets are pretty busy and hard to find rare parking. My order was ready and pick up was easy. It looked like a Vietnamese chipotle style place with very little indoor seating (2-3 spots) so definitely for take out spot. 10/10 Pork Bowl $16/ 2bowls (UBER EATs BOGO) regularly $11/bowl in store - YO this place is must go if you're in the area! They loaded the bowls to the cover and each bowl had double protein portions! There's a mix of rice and veggies and the green sauce was bomb! Add their fish sauce as well for the authentic Vietnamese flavors! Overall super value even without the ubereats deal, really good, large portions. Definitely coming back. read more

Got the pork belly banh mi and it was alright. The flavor is good but it definitely is very soggy. This time around, the entire baguette was like a giant crouton and had no chew. I've had it in the past and it wasn't like this so I guess it varies. The location is conveniently located next to UW so it's a quick spot to grab a bite. I would recommend the bowls over the sandwich if you were to check this place out. read more

Sooo good here and I come all the time with my friends. Love the green sauce that is given with the veggies and I always do half rice half salad with the beef. The food is amazing, it is not really a place to sit and eat as it is pretty small, so we often do take out. They are card only and have quick service. read more

Nothing special here, just convenient. The person taking our order was polite and helpful as she was the one making our order. At the counter to pay, we had to repeat our order of what we had. After receiving the order; I noticed napkins about 18" from the cashiers hands, so I ask for some napkins. She told me that they are over there, across the lobby and past people in line. Instead of giving me the napkins that she literally would not have to take a step to get, she inconvenienced us by having us squeeze by people to get them and then to squeeze back to our tiny table. It is a college place, so the friendliness is not overwhelming or abundant. The meat inside was poor quality and we had to remove about 1/3 because it was mostly fat. The sandwich was wrapped with the sauce on the outside of the bread, so it was difficult to hold and very messy. We did not finish our lunch. Not worth a return visit. read more

so quick service + big portion = tasty meal! I love coming here and this is another place I'm really shocked I tried for the first time in my last year of college lol but now it's a place I will always crave. I've only ever gone when I'm super hungry so I've only taken out food instead of sitting down to eat inside but I do think they have tables I've just never seen anyone sitting down. Line goes super quick and there's a fast feel within the atmosphere. read more

so much food for the price! the meat is tender, the veggies fresh, and to top it all off the green sauce alone is something to come back for

This place is like chipotle but the Vietnamese version. Service is good and quick. I got the beef rice/salad bowl with all the fixings, fish sauce & green sauce and an egg. They definitely don't skimp out on the beef which I can appreciate. The beef is cooked to medium and very flavorful. I enjoyed the green sauce. Great place to go to have a tasty meal but still feel like you're getting your veggies in. Small seating area inside but it seems like a place most college students grab and go. There's also cute outdoor balcony area when the weather is nice. There's a bathroom indoors but very dark but serves its purpose. They play a lot of old school music here which I enjoyed. Great place, would recommend! read more
