TAO banhmi cafe - Bakery in Thao Dien, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City

Top notch food and service, local and authentic. Free wifi and smiley cashier :) Check out the outlet store in the back for some crazy good deals on vietnamese fashion

Very warm welcome and service mind. Good taste and delicious. Mango Passion smoothies is over expectation 😀

One of the best banh mi’s I’ve had. Bread and portions are delicious. And price is great! Highly recommend. Plus in one of my favorite areas of Ho Chi Minh City.

내돈내산 This is the worst banh mi I’ve ever had, especially considering the high price. I came after reading the reviews and ordered what the staff recommended. As for the bread itself, the crust was extremely thick and hard. You need a lot of jaw strength just to take a bite. The filling was even more disappointing. I ordered the most expensive menu item, hoping for the best experience. The so-called Japanese beef was very tough and almost impossible to chew properly. The bone marrow sauce had no noticeable marrow aroma or any distinctive flavor that could justify the price. The fried shallots were of very poor quality, as you can see in the photos, clearly not good ingredients. I took one bite and left the rest of the banh mi untouched because it was simply inedible. As for the drink, I ordered a matcha latte. Even the sticker with the shop’s logo was placed upside down, which already showed a lack of attention to detail. If that’s the case, it’s not surprising that the drink itself had no matcha aroma, no milk flavor, just the taste of ice water. I read the reviews before coming, paid out of my own pocket to try it, and I won’t be returning. Coincidentally, the customer sitting next to me that day also ordered a banh mi, couldn’t eat it, and left it unfinished as well.

The beef sub it’s big size. I ate the whole beef sandwich.
