Pretty good for midtown wasteland
The restaurant is a good option for people who work in midtown. It's not fabulous nor authentic, but it tastes good!

great take-out and eat!
Im a fish-eating vegetarian so passed this place many times assuming they didnt have anything i'd eat. I finally reviewed their menu and saw a tuna sandwich or wrap - EXCELLENT. No mayo but their is a sauce that is used instead. Great flavor and the amount of tuna was so much that i couldnt eat both halves at once. Great taste and i imagine for those carnivores out there the chicken, beef, or pork are equally tasty!

An Oasis
In a desert of good lunch places, this place truly stands out as a favorite. Both the sandwiches and lunchboxes boast really fresh ingredients, ample portions, and fantastic flavor. For under $10, you get a great lunch. Perhaps it's not authentic, but that's not necessarily what I'm seeking--it's bold and delicious, and I'm thankful it's in the area.

Enjoyed it!
I have never had a Vietnamese sandwich before and judging from some reviews I still haven't. I can only judge them by how I liked it and I really did. The first time I went I had the banh mi and I have since had the BBQ Pork sandwich as well. I thought the ingredients tasted very fresh and while $8 may be alot for a sandwich in mid-town it is not that crazy. And it is very filling as well. The people that work there are very pleasant and the place is very clean. All in all a nice edition to the neighborhood.

Pretty Mediocre Food
Look, I know we're not in Chinatown, we're midtown, so I'm not comparing Boi's sandwiches to real Vietnamese sandwiches, but instead taking them at simple face value. That said, they're not so good. The Bahn Mi sandwiches are WAY too bready. The service is way too slow. With 3 people ahead of me on line, it took 20 minutes to get my sandwich. Also, it would be helpful to have service people who spoke some English. It took several trys before the guy making the sandwich understood "no avocado." I don't think I will go back there again.

Not bad for the area..
The sandwiches are decent and the prices are what they are, considering this is midtown and not Chinatown. If you work in midtown and are lucky enough to have a 2 hour lunch, then better to go to Chinatown to get the real stuff. But for me, this isn't bad. This is coming from a vietnamese girl whose family owned a Vietnamese sandwich shop..

unusual alternative to a ho-hum midtown
Vietnam was a French colony for many years, and baguettes are sold by baguette street vendors in Vietnam, and cafe au lait is part of their culture. I agree with Woodstock: The menu may not be entirely authentic, but I welcome an unusual alternative to the ho-hum midtown deli/saladbars. I found the chicken sandwich DELICIOUS because it captured some signature Vietnamese flavors (fresh basil, spicey and sweet). The sandwich was served warm. The eat in area is elegant and I plan to go back for more. (They also deliver.) Also try BOI (the restaurant) which has excellent food and beautiful ambience (though kind of pricey).
