I am fortunate enough to have a Lotus Banh Mi a few blocks from my job. Recently I was in Naperville for the first time and came across a location there just as my hunger levels were peaking.
The food at both locations is fresh and delicious. I typically get the veggiecado banh mi, and will happily return!

Delicious food! I’ve been a fan of Lotus Banh Mi since my student days at UIC. On a cold winter day, nothing beat their hot and flavorful Pho soup. And in between lectures, I’d often grab a Banh Mi sandwich and iced coffee to go. Hands down, it was the best food on campus.
Recently, I was walking through downtown and spotted a new location, they’ve expanded! I’m very happy! The food is still fresh, vibrant, delicious, and affordable. So glad to see them growing!

Their soy glazed wings and spring rolls are the best!! Service is typically pretty good. Have gone periodically since 2018 and has never disappointed me. Food is delicious and fresh.

I saw this place near my workplace and said I would try them one day so on 10/7/24 on a cold Chicago afternoon and stressful day, I decided to treat myself and try them.
I placed my order to try the regular size (they have large also) Beef Pho (Beef, rice noodles, bone broth, onions, cilantro, beansprouts, basil and lime) and a Pork Eggroll. The food is behind clear glass so you can see what it looks like. Staff was helpful and friendly. I got my food and sat down towards the back of the establishment. Place is very clean. I then counted my lucky stars because I noticed that they sell Joe’s sweetened drinks which are the BOMB! I got my favorite, the mango lemonade and they were nice enough to give me a large cup of ice for it.
It was time for the moment of truth. I tasted the pho and it was so delicious! Hot, flavorful and yummy. Hit the spot on such a cold day. The eggroll was equally as delicious and the sweet and sour sauce that they gave to go with tasted homemade.
I felt so welcomed here. They had very soothing music in the background so the atmosphere allowed me to just sit, relax and enjoy my food. I remembered arriving close to their closing time. I told the gentleman working how good the food was along with me needing to hurry up because I knew they were closing soon. He told me not to rush and just take my time and I let him know how much I appreciated that because my day had been a rough one. I stayed and enjoyed the rest of my food and the chill vibe inside.
When leaving, I thanked the staff and told them I would spread the word about them to my coworkers to give them additional business. I’m really looking forward to coming back as I enjoyed everything I had.
Sidenote: I have visited there to get their chicken pho as a carry out order. I was really impressed how everything was packaged. The broth is separate from the other ingredients so it will be fresh when you are ready to eat it. Thank you Lotus Banh Mi. The pho tasted just as good carry out as it does dining in.
All in all, I HIGHLY recommend this place. Definite A+ in my book. See you soon!

It’s hard to find great pho in the downtown area, but this place delivers. The pho is flavorful and satisfying, and the spring rolls were tasty too. Service was great and very quick.

Very calm and relaxing background music. Each category of food such as Bánh Mình, Phở, Rice bowl, Noodle Salad, Salads have a 3 to 4 simple items to choose from. A simple but elegant design like Tesla model. Line moving through is pretty fast. Recommend and will come again

I haven’t had pho in a long time so I decided to give this place a shot. The beef pho was excellent! I ordered a large and it’s BIG. I managed to finish it but next time I will get the small. 🙂
