The search is over, Banh has become one of my favorite banh mi spots on the UWS. I first time I went with some friends we shared the bac biet bahm mi, beef pho, and bahn chung chen (crispy sticky rice cake). And I keep going back for the Bahn mi’s, each one is good from the BBQ pork to the mushroom!

Don’t take my word for it, they have been reviewed by New York Times (post: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/10/dining/banh-vietnamese-shop-house-review.html), The Infatuation (post: https://www.theinfatuation.com/new-york/reviews/banh), and Eater NY (post: https://ny.eater.com/2021/1/14/22230731/banh-vietnamese-shop-house-opening-upper-west-side)! These reviews are more extensive and also go into the history of how the restaurant went from a pop-up in the Bronx to a restaurant on the UWS!
