Located in the heart of San Francisco’s Richmond District, Cafe Bunn Mi is a cozy little spot that feels like a home away from home. The moment you step inside, you’re enveloped in the warm aromas of slow-cooked meats and freshly baked bread. It’s the perfect place to grab a quick lunch or meet up with friends for dinner.

Imagine sinking your teeth into a crispy baguette filled with tender grilled pork, pickled carrots, and daikon, all held together by a tangy slaw made from shredded cabbage and cilantro. The flavors meld together in perfect harmony, each bite a masterclass in balance and restraint. And don’t even get me started on the broth - rich, savory, and infused with the deep umami of slow-cooked bones. It’s a bowl of comfort that will leave you feeling like you’re wrapped in a warm hug on a chilly San Francisco morning.

The sandwich at Cafe Bunn Mi is more than just a meal - it’s an experience. Each bite is a carefully crafted symphony of flavors and textures, with the crunch of fresh herbs giving way to the tender softness of grilled meats. And then there’s the broth - a rich, velvety elixir that adds depth and complexity to every spoonful. Whether you’re in the mood for something light and refreshing or hearty and comforting, this bowl has got you covered.

A casual and welcoming restaurant with a mix of modern and traditional decor, a large window on one side that allows natural light to enter
