    I had a great experience at Banhmi Vietfood! The food is delicious, fresh, and full of authentic Vietnamese flavor. The banh mi is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside, with tasty fillings. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and serve with a smile. Definitely one of the best Vietnamese food spots in town — highly recommended!

    Super delicious! Everything was 10/10. The bahn mi was so fresh and the summer roll was amazing. I was surprised by how delicious the lemonade was and the iced coffee was great. Hope to visit again soon

    We went here as a party of 8 to celebrate a birthday. The staff were lovely, food was amazing, and portions were generous. The iced and hot teas were so tasty too! Very reasonably priced considering the high quality of the dishes. We’d recommend this restaurant to anyone - such a great addition to the town :)

    Popped in for lunch. Homemade banh mi and a coffee. Loved the wee metal drop set for the coffee. Nice brew as well. The pork in the bahn mi was delicious nice, crisp, fresh veg as well. Service really quick as well. Will definitely be back. Believe you can bring your own wine or beer as well.

    Just back & was really impressed, Vietnamese isn't my favourite food, but I wanted to try because I've heard lots of people raving about here, first impression, it's nicely decorated inside & spotless. We had the spring rolls to start with, they were really crispy with a nice dipping sauce, I had the prawn curry & it was pippin hot & full of taste, my wife had the chicken curry & really enjoyed that aswell, the only negative i would point out, there could be more on the menu & offer a bit more variety, the kitchen staff & the waiter was really attentive & couldn't do more to make us feel comfortable.

    So lucky to have a restaurant like this in Kilmarnock. Food is amazing, so fresh and clean. Service is amazing. We sat in and enjoyed the spring rolls, summer rolls, mixed stir fry and chicken pho. Everything was fresh and delicious. Staff are so attentive and friendly. Couldn’t finish it all so got a doggie bag which was just so well packed, better than a regular take away! Even gave us free chop sticks. Vietnamese milk tea is delicious similar to bubble teas. Even got complimentary oranges. Definitely will be back!

    A hidden gem of a restaurant in Kilmarnock. Glad to see a place that serves authentic food and is at the convenience of the high street. Had a Ban bo Hue and a vegetable stir-fry, both of which were fantastic. The proper Vietnamese coffee was absolutely divine also. Prices for the portion size are very reasonable and the staff are so pleasant. Definitely making this a regular spot and others with a taste for authentic, real food should do the same.
