Banh Mi Hanoi - Boutique-Counter Restaurants in Villeray-Saint-Michel

Banh Mi Hanoi

Opens Today at 10 am
(40)
Villeray-Saint-Michel, Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie

Review Summary

Overall, Banh Mi Hanoi draws mixed but mostly positive impressions, with many noting the banh mi are flavorful and generously filled with meat and considered a strong value, and several reviewers calling it among the best banh mi in Montreal, while a few feel tastier options exist at lower prices elsewhere. Service is often described as friendly and quick, making pickups convenient after a long day, and some reviews praise specific offerings like the Hanoi style, the pork version and even a croissant banh mi. On the downside, there are cautions about issues such as bones in the chicken banh mi, occasional hours closing early or seeming unreliable, and a problem with a green plastic thread found in a sandwich. Beverages are less favorable, with bubble tea described as excessively sweet or undrinkable and the matcha milk tea noted for a gritty texture and odd pearls. A light note about a bowl of vermicelli with herbs being fresh and satisfying with a good portion rounds out the overview, illustrating strong flavor and energy but some inconsistencies in drinks and hours.View restaurant profile
