Taste good nice herbs and spices which compliments the add on K-Town Throw down Gochujang chicken
Love this place! So many vegan options. Chickpeas are delicious, not too spicy. 10/10!
Their Miso Kimchi ramen is good and comes with a bowl of miso soup. This place is right across a dining hall and there were... plenty of seats when we were there. Awesome place to eat! Read more
Fairly priced and food is decent enough. Nothing stands out as being amazing to me but I keep coming back anyway...probably... because there's a good balance of vegetables and it seems somewhat healthy. I've had the food truck fave, the namesake banh miand I've also created my own bowls. Would prefer it if they put more sauce for the rice bowls, I can tell the flavor is therebut to me it's a bit too subtle. They get quite busy during lunch hour so try to come right before or after to miss the crowds! Read more
I heard that Bon Me was the first food truck in Boston and you can tell by their quick and efficient service. I got my food it... seems like instantly after I ordered it. Every part of it tasted fresh and delicious. The carrots we're cold and crisp and thepulled pork was hot and juicy. I got the Food Truck Fave which is listed with a 2 fire rating but I didn't find it all thatspicy but I've been told that I often rate things much less spicy than others might. I was not upset, the dish was delicious andI would definitely recommend it and Bon Me. Read more
Bon Me won't disappoint you, but it also won't blow you away. I've had most of their menu across several locations; what you... get at one Bon Me is going to taste the same as what you get at any other Bon Me. They mainly sell four kinds of dishes: Sandwiches, salads, rice bowls, noodle salads. SANDWICHES: These are the classic bánh mì sandwiches that Bon Me is namedafter. One of my favorite foods. Personally, I look for three things in a good bánh mì: crunchy bread, cold + crispvegetables, cilantro, and a slightly spicy sauce. Bon Me hits all of these points, so I'd call it a passable sandwich, but itcould be improved. The bread is crispy, but the sauce isn't viscous enough. It ends up pooling on the bottom of your sandwich,soaking the bread and dripping everywhere. It could also benefit from more daikon radish mixed in with the carrots. The sauceis lightly spicy and definitely flavorful, but again, too watery. All in all, it's a good sandwich. Fix the problems above,and it's a great sandwich. SALADS / NOODLE SALADS / RICE BOWLS: These are all in one category because they're extremelysimilar. You have a main ingredient (lettuce, noodles, or rice), with a protein and a bunch of toppings. If you go with thesalad or noodle salad, I suggest the miso lime vinaigrette. You won't be disappointed with any of the proteins. None of themare over-the-top, in-your-face with flavor, but I'm assuming may be to allow the other ingredients in the bowl to come through. If they have it when you go, I recommend the Suchuan Peppercorn Chicken, or the Miso-Braised pulled pork. They have a rotatinglist of special proteins, so be sure to go back every now and then and try something new. You'll end up spending between $8-9for lunch if you don't get a drink, which is average Boston lunch price. For the food you get, it's an average value. Youwon't leave hungry, but you won't leave over-stuffed; the portions are well thought-out. The staff is always po Read more
