Edit:
This time it was better though they looked like they were closing 45 minutes before their closing time.
The fries have improved but the portions are smaller. I still love the fried chicken bao.

This is probably the last time I will be visiting banh mi boys, since the establishment open. It was my frequent hang out spot with the great feeling of warm baos and crispy kimchi fries. The quality has been deteriorating ever since it expanded from one location to two.
The banh mi is definitely questionable, the meat was either going bad and they dose it in sauce. Not to mention, the grilled chicken banh mi was missing the chicken. Only a sliver of the protein was found.
The fries were definitely better but for a while the fries were very soggy and not crispy, so definitely a hit or miss.
The seating is limited, there is always a line, and the place is filthy as a poster mentioned below. I mean there is dust behind the lighting in the seats and sometimes there is crumbs of a banh mi someone left behind.
I really wanted to love this place because it had a great story! I tried the kimchi fries way back at cne and it clearly is taking a sky dive downhill.
