Review Summary

Banh Mi 79 earns strong praise from diners, with Pho Satay with roast beef described as perfect, delicious and flavorful, and the overall food repeatedly called unmatched and amazing. Diners highlight the Vietnamese sandwich and other menu items such as banh mi and pad thai as very delicious, with pad thai often cited as a standout and even the favorite by far. Delivery experiences via Uber Eats are praised, and portions are described as large with a generous amount of condiments, prompting some to plan an in person visit. Caramelized pork is suggested as a tasty pairing for pad thai.

Banh mi un peu plus classe que ceux de Paris mais moins de goût. Ils sont bons mais ne valent pas leur prix. Ceux de Paris sont moins chers & plus goutus. Ça dépanne pour un repas non gras.

Le prix affiché n'était pas le même que le prix facturé (hors taxes) sans aucune indication ni explication. Un service plus rapide est attendu d'un comptoir à emporter. Bien que les marinades soient réussies, la portion des garnitures dans le bánh mì pourrait être un peu plus généreuse. Sachant que malgré l'inflation, le prix a presque doublé en 5 ans.

Had an incredible takeout night! The vermicelli bowls are exquisite & the spring rolls are divine. Definitely do try the banh mi as well, it's their signature dish!

My comfort takeout restaurant! One of my absolute favourite restaurants for banh mi & noodles - I keep coming back for more. The caramelized pork udon noodles are divine, & I always get the fresh spring rolls to accompany them.

My craving for a savory Banh Mì sandwich led me to the doors of Banh Mì 79, conveniently located in a bustling yet accessible part of the town. The ease of finding a parking spot set a positive tone for the experience ahead.

The interior of the restaurant exudes a subtle charm, with a warm & inviting ambiance complimented by the courtesy of the staff. My order, a spicy lemongrass beef Banh Mì, was delivered with efficiency, & its size hinted at a satisfying meal. The first bite into the warm, crispy, yet soft bun set the stage for high expectations.

However, the unfolding experience did not fully align with the initial promise. The distinct flavor of lemongrass was absent, a notable omission that made the sandwich fall short of authenticity. The coriander, although fresh, was poorly presented, hanging untidily out of the sandwich. The toppings were sparse, & the beef was chewy, not offering the tender, succulent bite one would hope for.

The request for a spicy kick was inconsistently met; the spice was concentrated on one end of the sandwich, leaving the other bereft of the desired heat. Each bite presented a fluctuation between the contrasting worlds of spice & blandness.

In conclusion, my visit to Banh Mì 79 was a journey through highs & lows. The restaurant delivered on speed, service, & the quality of the bun, yet faltered on flavor consistency, presentation, & meat quality. The experience, although not entirely unpleasant, was ultimately unremarkable – satisfying the immediate hunger but leaving the deeper craving for a truly exceptional Banh Mì unmet.
