Huong's Bistro

Crema's Take
“Huong's Bistro is a Vietnamese spot that nails the essentials with standout bánh mì sandwiches loaded with real flavor and creative specialty drinks like their memorable durian milkshake that'll have you forgetting to photograph it. The friendly service moves quickly, the space stays clean and well-presented, and they're not afraid to get adventurous with coconut and lemongrass-forward flavors that keep customers coming back for more.”

Atmosphere is average but I wouldn’t expect much anyway. Service is fine. However the food compared to other restaurants with the same food items is not as good. It’s largely lacking flavor and quality. Also the price for the Bahn mi sandwich is very high compared to the amount of meat placed in the sandwich. Then they stuff it with vegetables more than anything and I’m not fond of them doing that. Especially considering the price they are charging for the simple Bahn mi sandwich. IMO the pickled veggies are not even the right flavor profile. It was my second time buying a Bahn mi and both times I didn’t like so I won’t try again. I once had the smoothie and it tasted good but that’s it. I doubt I’ll be eating here again.
I found Huong's Bistro at the Saigon Food Festival where they had a little tent. I ordered a chicken banh mi and it was honestly delicious. A banh mi seems simple to make but there's actually a lot that goes into it. The bread has to be soft but also provide a nice texture, the pickled veg needs to give some acidity but not overpower and the chicken needs to be well-seasoned and cooked properly. It was all done very well here. I didn't go into their restaurant but even in the tent at the food festival, I could tell the food was made and kept well. It was sanitary, well-labeled and you can tell the folks who work here have a lot of pride in their food and how they present it. 10/10 would recommend.
Very friendly and attentive quick service. Not to mention, both the BBQ pork and the Lemongrass pork bánh mì subs were absolutely delicious and flavorful. I would definitely recommend it, and I'll surely be back for more, Thank you.
Came here because they had durian milkshake and they were fantastic. Unfortunately, we drank the whole thing before I had a chance to take photo of it. The place itself was really clean and well presented.
Clean place, good service, delicious lemon grass sandwich, and try the coconut it is so good it is has inside a mix of coconut milk with yelly. I will buy again this foods.
