Banh Mi K

Banh Mi K on Brighton Avenue serves Vietnamese sandwiches, pho and rolls. The classic bánh mì combines Vietnamese ham, pork meatloaf and pâté, with pickled vegetables, cucumber and herbs among the sandwich toppings. Tofu is another filling option. If you want to adjust the heat, the ordering menu lets you add fresh chili or spicy sauce separately.

Pho comes with a choice of beef or chicken and the usual plate of bean sprouts, basil, lime and chili. Fresh summer rolls offer several fillings, including tofu, and come with peanut sauce. It’s an easy menu to approach as either a sandwich lunch or a bowl of noodle soup, with rolls to share between people ordering different things. The shop is at 108 Brighton Avenue in Allston.
