Bomb as bahnmi softshell crab and shrimp and the bread is on point with the crunch can't wait to go back again.

We came in about 10 minutes before they close. And I felt really bad but they were very, very friendly and nice about it. I think they usually mostly cater to lunch customers because they closed at 6 PM. I asked the employee what the most popular sandwiches were and she told me it was definitely the crispy chicken bacon banh mi. We ordered that and a spicy pork shrimp banh mi. Both were excellent! I really liked the bacon one more and my partner really preferred the pork shrimp one more so it worked out. Both were a 10/10!!! Crispy fresh fluffy bread. Not stale at all. And about $35 for both sandwiches and a can of Coke. Beware that crispy chicken will cut up the roof of your mouth though. It was worth every bite!! And they were so big that I could only eat half. Saved the other half for the next day and it was just as delicious. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in town and it's not too late. read more

Not your average Vietnamese fare. An Asian meets American twist without compromising the flavor. This spot used to be on the weekly rotation when I worked in the area. My favorites are the Thai chili shrimp & pork bao and their spicy torched shrimp & pork rice. Their portions are generous and they do not skimp on the meat. The only criticism I have is that the bao bun does start to fall apart getting soaked with the juices from the meat and sauces. Food is usually ready within 5-10 minutes. A very casual spot to grab a meal with ample amount of seating if you choose to dine in. There is some parking directly in front of the store but there is more towards the back. Definitely recommend this spot! read more

Great place! Wanted to find a good easy lunch spot for my 2 kiddos and friend with 2 kiddos between Covington/Kent and Puyallup and found this with a quick Google search. We got here at 1230pm on a Thursday, parking spots right in front of building. Friendly worker took our order at the front. I ordered the Crunchy Chicken and Bacon Sandwich. Sandwich came out in less than 10 mins. Prices are a little high, but the sandwich was BIG! Easily was almost a foot long and filled with meat and toppings. Flavors were top tier, chicken was indeed crunch as advertised. Restaurant was pretty much empty, but there are about 4 tables for seating. There was a high chair for my little one, which is always worth mentioning. 5 stars and will go back to try more flavors. Thank you! read more

Pho is a winter comfort food but I never had Bahn Mi until tonight. Urban chops was my delicious entry drug. I had the slightly sweet and gooey fried chicken and bacon Bahn Mi. Delicious. We took it to go because they were close to closing. Get there early! They close at 6 peoples. The Vermentino is my bougie add and a good pairing. Sparking is probably better. read more

We got the lemongrass chicken and a lemongrass pork. The portions are huge! The banh mi is filled with protein and the meat is marinated and full of flavor. The lady at the front was nice and helpful to accommodate for shellfish allergy. The restaurant itself is a little dirty and could use a deep cleaning. Pretty good sandwiches tho! read more

Stopped in for quick lunch and left with a full belly and a smile on my face. The crunchy chicken bacon bahn mi was out of this world delicious. The sauces, textures, and flavors were simply perfection. The lemongrass chicken noodle salad was also superb. Their dressing was notably better than others and the chicken was super flavorful. Casual ambience, food is served in single use plastic items, and they only have plastic ware. read more

My partner had a pork and shrimp banh mi and I had a fried tofu noodle salad. My salad was so fresh and delicious! It came with a delightfully sweet sauce that stimulated my appetite. My partner loved his pork and shrimp banh mi. It was perfectly seasoned and grilled and the bread was crumbly toasted and soft in the middle. If we're in the neighborhood we will absolutely be back especially since this seems it's a family owned business. read more

There are about 8 parking spots right outside of the restaurant. Everything is self serve, you order and pay at the counter first, so no service for the guests For the portion vs. cost, it's definitely great value. There are plenty of seats on the inside if you don't want to take it to-go and eat in the car. The interior needs a little freshen up for sure. Other ways, it's solid for a fast food spot read more

This spot makes some of the most creative sandwiches around. Tasty. I need to go back soon and add some details to my review, but can say this... this is a great spot read more

The amazing food keeps me coming back. I just wish they would find time to make the eating area more appealing. So messy.

The Thai chili shrimp and pork Banh mi is not for the faint of heart. Perfect marriage of flavor and heat. Bit on the pricey side. The baguette is so good. Will be back for more. There is some inside seating and a decent sized parking lot. A condiment table with carry out containers is a nice touch. They can do something about the ventilation and the cleanliness of the restrooms Please support this minority owned small business. read more

I got the bao bun sandwich to go, I didn't expect it to be so big! It was the size of a burger.

I've been here three times and I love it. It's the place I didn't know I needed. I love how imaginative they are with new types of banh mi, such as crab, shrimp and ginger. And, they have a choice of bao bun and a french roll for what the sandwiches are served on. The service is great and the people are kind. My only criticism is that I wish they offered appetizers. Often I want more food, but there isn't an easy way to get one and a half dishes. read more

Came here after seeing it being in the top 100 sandwiches in the country and it did not disappoint. I got the soft shell crab and shrimp banh mi and thought it was really good. My partner ordered a pork and shrimp bun bao and it was the size of her head, but still good. I ordered pickup for lunch and it came out pretty quick so the service was good. Ambiance was also pretty good even though I didn't eat there. I would definitely come back read more

Amazing spot for creative banh mi or bun flavors. The portions are super big and I was amazed at how large the bun sandwiches are. Would come back if I wasn't just in town for vacation. read more

The two sandwiches my wife and I shared from Urban Chops are probably the best sandwiches we will have this year. We shared a crunch chicken with bacon sandwich on a bao bun and an urban pork sandwich on a bao bun. I honestly couldn't tell you which was better but they were both unbelievably good. Each individual component of the sandwich was executed masterfully. The chicken and the bacon was crunchy and tender. The pork was tender and juicy and had a crispy sliver of what I think was fried pork skin. Excellent. The service was acceptable but not exceptional. I'll give them a pass considering how delicious their food is. As for the ambiance the place is very very casual. Just come in however you are. read more

Let me just say that the creme brulee is literally to die for. We are so sad we can't get down there often enough do to them closing right after work hours. But I def recommend ordering more than one because you won't be able to get enough of it. read more

When you think bao, you think a small thing that fits in the palm of your hand. Here, it's essentially a big burger which is awesome and great value. The crispy fried chicken and bacon bao is filled with vegetables and sweet sauce which I thought went well together. The one thing I noted was that the bao falls apart and so it's a bit messy - I would recommend eating in for that reason. Overall great lunch place and I would come back again! read more

Was able to stop by urban chops today for a late lunch and decided to try the Thai chili shrimp and pork banh mi. I have been here before and have enjoyed the food so I was shocked that it was empty. Parking is right in front of the store and if busy may be hard to find parking. You order at the counter and seat yourself here with self service water station and sauces. Warning: this is not your standard banh mi you get at Saigon deli or at a pho spot. This is banh mi on steroids with creative fillings that you can't get elsewhere! Additional warning: this sandwich is pretty spicy. I love spice and use Thai chili a bit when I cook so I enjoyed this but I could see this being too spicy for a lot of people. I ordered and paid short of $20 for the sandwich after tip. When my order was ready my sandwich was near the size of a football. The bread was fluffy and crispy. The meat was very flavorful and plentiful! There is visible Thai chopped chili throughout the sandwich. It was delicious and had a very strong kick to it. Shrimps were bouncy and the pork was very juicy and tasty as well. Overall I'd get this again if I feel like something spicy and would give it like an 8.4/10. read more

The reviews don't lie. These are the best non-traditional banh mis you will find. Although they are pricier than regular banh mis, they fill the sandwiches with a lot of the protein. Therefore, it's worth it to me. We tried the spicy shrimp and pork sandwich, 10/10! I would especially get this if you like spicy. Something else that blew us out of the water was their crème brûlée. The best crème brûlée I've ever had!! That's def a must try. I can't wait to return and try some other items on their menu. read more

How have we lived in Auburn for this long and didn't know this place existed. Went for lunch today and OMG, the best sandwich I've had in many months. The crispy calamari on one of their buns, absolutely amazing. My husband had the urban pork and our friend a noodle salad. These are non traditional but who cares. I'm going to ask next time I'm there if they can make the noodle salad and put the calamari on it. I don't care what I have to pay. read more

Most banh mis are good, but the banh mis here are great! Otherwise, my bf wouldn't have driven me to this place from Renton! I really loved the coconut shrimp curry banh mi coz while its different from other banh mis I've had before, the basics were stilll done well - the bread, the pickled veggies, the spread. And they're pretty generous with the shrimp and the pork. I'm excited to go back here and try other items on their menu! read more
