“ Solid Take out only Bahn Mi spot. Friendly and fast service. Tasted fresh- bread was crunchy, there was a good umami flavor of creamy sauce, and crunchiness of vegetables. Fair amount of meat. Inside is clean and has a few seats to wait for your food. No indoor seating to eat your order and there is only street parking. ”

“ Low-key, family-owned, take-out only spot with fabulous food that is the BEST Vietnamese food in the state. The primary chefs are from Vietnam and are NOT messing around when it comes to flavor and portion size. I recommend the banh mi to-go or the home-made pho on a cold day. Their Vietnamese coffee is also a must-try for an afternoon pick-me-up. Friendly and explained everything to me. Decor is nothing fancy but that's not what you want in a take-out place anyways. I will be back here often...maybe even weekly...or more... ”

“ OMG this is the best banh mi I've ever had, but to be fair I'm not a connoisseur. However I know great flavor profiles and this sandwich really nails it! I tried the regular classic banh mi and it had the right balance of ingredients. I'll be back to try other banh mi, or the pho, or anything really! ”

“ Food: Lemongrass chicken banh mi, BBQ pork banh mi and shrimp summer rolls. We had wanted the lemon grass beef banh mi but, unfortunately, the person in front of us got the last one. The lemongrass chicken turned out to be juicy and flavorful. The bread had a perfect bahn mi texture and the jalapenos, pickled diakon and carrots and mayo were well balanced to get a sweet, savory and spicy mix. Great portions for the price. We did take out but service was prompt and friendly. ”

“ Such a quick spot for a Banh mi for lunch, I've had seen my friends eat here and wanted to give it a shot. I got the cold cut Banh mi and it was delicious. ”

“ Much better Banh mi at this visit than last. I prefer if the baguette fresher but nevertheless the Banh mi is full of flavor. A pretty good sandwich all around. This cafe now is cash only. ”

“ Excellent vegan bahn mi at this hole in the wall shop. One woman was working and she was busting her but because it was busy! Vegan bahn mi was delicious with fried tofu with a glaze, vegan mayo, jalapenos, pickled daikon and carrots. Their vegan Thai ice tea was awesome, too ”

“ We've been here quite a few times since covid hit and it's never disappointed! It's always quick, affordable, and so unbelievably good. It's a grab and go but there are some benches inside and the women who work there are always super nice. The sandwich is on the perfect bread that's hard without cutting your mouth, the meat is perfectly cooked and it's always just juicy. Love love this place - def try it if you are anywhere close! ”

“ Update to my July 2022 review, from when I first discovered Banh Appetit! It's become one of my favorite locals, and I want to be sure that everyone also knows about their wonderful, wonderful pho. Now that fall has set in here in Maine, don't you want some delicious soup to warm up? Yes, you do--and if you're a fan of pho, you want to order some here. Today I had the brisket, which I think is my favorite so far (I've also had the steak and the chicken, both also terrific, and they usually have shrimp and meatballs too; you can also mix proteins if you like). Pho connoisseurs know that it's alllllll about the broth, and I can attest to the savory, delicate flavors you'll find here. This is the real deal. This is seasonal, and it isn't showing on the menu if you pull it up online--so just pop on by and see what they have that day. And one order is easily two portions, so great value on top of great flavor! ”

“ Ordered a banh mi with cha lua only. Really enjoyed it! There were plenty of veggies included. We also shared a green Thai iced tea, which was very refreshing. It had more of a vanilla taste than the usual orange Thai iced tea. There's not a lot of seating (just a few outdoor seats) so it's probably better as a takeout place. ”
