Is "love at first bite" a thing? Because if so, I think I just caught some feels.
We were driving by one day when we noticed that this place seemed to pop up over night in place of Bambu. Interesting. When we first walked in, by all means, it still looked like Bambu. We got a honeydew smoothie and a coconut juice with our two banh mi for our impromptu picnic at the park. The drinks came out first and it was pretty underwhelming to be honest. I wouldn't come back for drinks. But wow! The banh mis are so yum mi! *gets pelted by French bread for the bad pun*
They're just as good as Banh Mi Bistro Vietnamese Eatery out in Phoenix but at a lower price point. We got the Urbanh Sandwiches, oppose to the basic banh mis which are a dollar cheaper, at $5.50 a pop and it was worth it. We're talking huge sandwiches with layers of meat, a ton of pickled vegetables, and a generous amount of jalapeños and cilantro. The B1. Dac Biet Urbanh Special was good but the B4. Ba Chi Pork Belly... giiiiirl! I see you! Lookin' all thicc and juicy... I ate half a banh mi and was fueled for the rest of the day. It was bomb.
So yeah, four stars! The drinks were a miss for me but the banh mis are delicious. They still have chè for those of you who miss Bambu.
I'm a fan for Urbanh!
Note: They can and do run out of banh mi randomly throughout the day.
