When do you open. Google says 11 am open today. It's noon and you are closed. Help with updated hours please

They are usually open at 11 am, so I agree with Eric, they are probably out of town. On the other hand, I recommend making the effort to go back. The food is excellent and the family is very congenial.

The best Vietnamese I’ve ever had and I’ve had a lot. Get the pho and a meatball or pate bahn mi with extra meat. The owner’s wife is usually cooking and she’s incredible. The owner is usually serving. He’s the sweetest guy and he’ll give you tips on how to beat enjoy the food. It made me excited about Vietnamese food 10 years ago and when I returned to STL after a 5 year absence I was ecstatic to see the owners still there and the food was just as delicious as when I had first tried it. God Bless this place and its owners.

Amazing vegetarian/vegan fare. You gotta try the Joey B if you are in the mood for a vegetarian sandwich, I recommend extra 'meat.' Crepes are outstanding as well. Service will take a while, be prepared to wait. It's not the nicest ambiance and they don't have a soda machine, but the food is worth it.

Banh Mi So translated must mean heaven, because this food is out of this world good. I had pork spring rolls and spicy beef soup that were to die for. I'm so glad a local recommended this place!!!! They have a larger beer called Tiger that was really good as well. I highly recommend this place.

Went in at opening 11 a.m. Older gentleman very nice seemed to be all alone. Ordered Beef pho and spicy beef soup with vermicelli noodles, and an order of egg rolls. We also ordered a sandwich to go. Egg rolls took 30 min to arrive they were soaked in oil and the wrapping was so loose it fell apart at first bite. The oil was obviously old because they were very dark. The soups arrived 20 minutes later. Old condiments on the table along with old bean sprouts were brought out. The pho was bland the spicy beef was sweet not spicy. The sandwich was the most disappointing. Barely had any filling! One piece of meat very little veggies. It was as light as a feather! The bread was the only redeeming quality. All in all if I could give 0 stars I would.

Absolutely delicious. The environment is very cute and comforting. A great mom n pop restaurant. There are plenty of vegan options and the mung bean spring rolls are a delicacy. Definitely bring something to do or have a lot to talk about with your company because it will be a little bit of a wait, but well worth it

This is a family-owned and family-run restaurant. The wife is in charge of the kitchen and cooks all meals while the husband takes care of the dinning room area. Last time I was there, it was just the two of them running the whole place so don't be surprised if there is a long wait involved but I can assure you it will be 100% worth it. Best pho and spring rolls I've ever tried. They have the freshest ingredients and most tasty food. We talked with the owner and he goes to the market himself every morning to buy fresh produce. Prices are very reasonable and portions are very good size. If wait time is a concern I would suggest not going during a peak time.

They claim to have the best Spring Rolls in the city. They are good, but then I'm still working on comparing the other SE Asian restaurants in the city.

This place is the jam. Can't order over the phone very easily from some of the online menus' veiwible over Google because they fill out your order ticket using the number code from their in-store menu. It is amazing food that is worth waiting around for coming in to order takeout or if you're dining in.Sauces come with nearly everything and are an awesome addition to Vietnamese classics.The gate all the way to the left is the only one that is ever unlocked on the fence around the patio so don't be deterred.

Amazing! VEGAN friendly! The food and service was great. The atmosphere was exactly what I like as well, laid back and not too fancy. The owner suggested that I try the mung bean spring rolls instead of the tofu spring rolls that I would usually order. I was hesitant at first because I wasn't sure how beans would work in a spring roll. But, he convinced me and I am so glad that he did. There were no loose beans in my spring roll, but instead, a very delicious homemade tofu like substance made from mung beans instead of soy beans. SO GOOD! I'm not sure if anyone else does this, I wish they did. One of the other great things about Banh Mi So 1, is the very vegan friendly menu. Eating actually vegan (or even vegetarian)Vietnamese food can be hard with unknown broths and fish oils, but this place clearly marks on the menu which dishes are vegan or can be made vegan! Thank you Banh Mi So 1, for becoming my new favorite spot in St. Louis for Vietnamese food!

One of the undiscovered gems in So St Louis City!The vegan crepes are Divine; the fresh-grown on site herbs, and homemade soy sauce are Ambrosial!A true family owned and operated establishment which has been turning out extraordinary fare for decades.The Veggie Ham and Mung Bean over fettuccine, and The Joe B., with extra meat, are particular favorites.

This place is an amazing family-owned locale that provides amazing hand-made meticulously curated food at a great price. Dewey, the son of the owners is the best server. This is perhaps my favorite restaurant. I tend to categorize, but every time I go there I'm so satisfied and happy it's ridiculous. Their sandwiches and apps are bloody amazing. And the atmosphere is so chill. It's wonderful.

First and foremost, the food directly reflects the love and passion that the owner possesses. Everytime that we have visited here, he comes to our table and tell us about his life and how hard he has worked to obtain what he has. This man works harder than anyone I have ever met in my life. He has a passion for his food and for those that choose to consume it. Much love to this place and that man. I am honored to exist on the same planet as him.

We ordered beef pho (#9) and spicy beef soup (#12). The spicy beef soup was much better than the pho, definitely would return for spicy beef soup (not pho). It was not hot spicy just very flavorful and completely different broth than the pho.

Not only the best (and most affordable) bánh mì thịt in St. Louis, but some of the best BREAD in the area, too. Crunches and cracks when you bite into it, with ingredients that are incredibly fresh.

Good food, but the customer service has really gone down. We used to love this place when we lived in St Louis. So much so, that when we went back, we wanted to make it our place to have a friend's dinner. Unfortunately, their new policy is that if you have more than 4 people, you have to make a reservation and order everything for the table when you make the reservation. Since we had several couples meeting us, we couldn't do that. We showed up to an empty dining room where the owner, in a very impatient and salty tone, told us of the policy. He very impatiently accommodated us until there were more than 4. Then, since we couldn't order for everyone else coming, he agreed that we should leave. Very sad that we will not be going back there. It used to be one of the highlights of our trip.

This is one of our favorite places, ever. Amazing vegan options! Favorites: spring rolls... the tofu and the mung bean are both delicious. The vegan egg rolls are another favorite. Highly recommend the vegan Joe B sandwich, the vegan pho, vegan spicy beef and vegan curry. I'm sure everything else is wonderful as well but we have a hard time ordering new things since we we love our favorites so much.
