Banh Mi Galang

The Banh Mi is amazing here- I would recommend eating in, maybe read a novel on your lunch break. The employees are always so kind & inviting.

Ordered the grilled chicken and rice to-go. While the flavors were on point (loved the sauce it came with) the chicken ratio to rice way wayyy off in my opinion. There was not enough protein to balance out the plate, and it seemed overpriced because of this. I think there are other Vietnamese food options that have much better portion sizes to justify the price better!

The people that worked here were super sweet and the food was delicious, they had some of the best banh mi bread I've ever eaten! The only issue was that the food was overpriced, I had to pay +$1.50 for paté and +$2.00 for extra meat, there was also an option for a fried egg for +$1.50

This little shop is located on the corner of HMART plaza. Parking was easy and the restaurant had seating (limited due to size of shop). It seemed like people came in to order to go but we came in and dined in. We got banh mi's and chicken potstickers. The beef and pork banh mi's were good but for $9 a banh mi, expecting to have more meat. Also, I didnt see much mayonnaise and the pickled veggies could've been pickled more. The potstickers looked deep fried and not pan fried- interesting, but flavor was there. I am from houston so definitely have had better banh mi's but for austin, this place is decent (giving 4 stars as the bread tasted good and veggies were fresh). If there was 3.5 stars, i'd give that. Bit expensive for portion.

I ordered one of their vermicelli dishes and my Mom had their basic Pho. I can only write about my dish. It came with bbq pork, shrimp and egg roll. It was delicious to me. The sauce that goes with it is also good. Also the staff people were nice. I'm trying to remember if you're supposed to pay first or pay after. The reason why I say this is because the woman behind the counter kept pointing to come to the front. The service was nice and the staff were friendly. I have to say the only thing I didn't like was the strong pine sol smell when they were wiping things down. When we first walked in, it was empty and they were wiping things down. But I know cleanliness is a must. Not a big deal but it was not favorable to smell to me anyway. I'd try it here again.

There are peanuts served with the vermicelli and fish sauce. I didn't mention my nut allergy when ordering banh mi but I had no issues.Plenty of parking nearby. They have a nice little bookshelf inside too.Ordered via Toast To-Go. I was shocked to find pate is not included on the banh mi by default and costs and extra $1.50!We ordered a pork and beef banh mi with no modifications, and shared half of each. Both of us greatly preferred the beef banh mi (3.5/5) because it was more juicy and flavorful than the pork banh mi (2.5/5). The pork banh mi was dry. Overall, both banh mi were lacking in protein for the price. The bread was good but smaller than other banh mi I've had, especially at the price. Vegetables seemed solid, though do be aware that the jalapenos aren't de-seeded. Overall, I'd say the banh mi are average and on the pricier side.

Simple order. Totally wrong. Not sure how to say to improve other than more attention to detail.

This small Vietnamese restaurant being right next to H-mart is easily missed due to it being in the shadow of a giant but the food here is very good. Authentic flavors and lots of flavor. The interior is small so don't expect to dine in with more than 4 people but their banh mi is great as a take out. There was a jalapeño in there which did catch me by surprise (it was at the ends of the sub). The pork had a really nice subtle sweet marinate which went really well with the cucumbers and carrots! The bun is toasted as your order is made so no need to worry for soggy buns either!

Stopped in for lunch today because we found this place on Yelp on our way to Cedar Park. Nice restaurant, right off 183, friendly staff. Menu is not expansive but varied enough for most people. We zeroed in on the Bahn Mi sandwiches. I had the combo (with ham/pate, etc.) and also ordered a pork spring roll. The pork spring roll was really good, nice and plump and the pork was 'wrapped' around the veggies and the rice paper covered it all so you could see how much pork you were getting and it was a generous amount.Now for the main event. I loved everything about the Bahn Mi *except* the bread. I'm very picky about my Bahn Mi's and, although it *looked* like real french bread, it was not what I'm used to. First the insides... lots of stuff and appropriately portioned so that you get a little of everything with every bite. I love it when a restaurant pays attention to that type of detail, it really makes a difference to get that spectrum of flavors in one bite. Also, the meat/pate portions were generous, moreso than other Viet places, and the right amount of jalapenos as to not be overly heated.So, the bread. It looked like French bread but when I eat my French bread *anything* I expect to have a mess of crumbs when I'm done. No crumbs here so if they're calling it French Bread, I'd suggest they change their recipe to make it crumbly on the outside and soft on the inside like many other Vietnamese places do. So we bump you for 1 star on that important part.I'd definitely come back, if I'm way north again, as there are other menu items that look very worthy of trying.Lastly the prices for the sandwiches are very fair. In fact, we felt like almost all of their menu items were not Austin prices yet so I hope they don't get greedy like some other Viet places and unnecessarily start charging big city prices!

Very nice staff! Owner of the restaurant made our sandwichesI ordered 3 of the beef. Tasty, as the veggies were refreshing along side the subtle but flavorful pickled veggiesPlenty of seating. Please be patient for your order as she makes your food as it's ordered for maximum freshness!Will definitely be back.
