I absolutely love Crispy! Of the Banh Mi places that I have tried in Charlotte, Crispy is easily my favorite.
So far I've tried the #1, #4 and #12...#12 is my favorite as I tend to trend more towards a pescatarian diet. They use tilapia which is fried crispy and well seasoned. When paired with the crispy bun, the spice of jalapeƱos and coolness of pickled toppings, it is a very unexpected level of delicious.
If you're not a fan of pork, Crispy offers chicken and a vegetarian option.
If that's not enough to convince you, there's a list of refreshing drink options from smoothies, fruit teas and fresh lemonades. Plus, the customer service is always superb at Crispy at either location.
Heads up...both locations are quite small. I would not recommend either for groups but don't let that deter you from trying the best Banh mi in town!
