The Omai Special is the bánh mì that carries our name. Winnipeg food accounts keep pointing to it for its flavour and well-balanced spice — an easy first pick if you’re searching for bánh mì near you in River Heights.
Bánh mì is the classic Vietnamese sandwich, and the Omai Special is our namesake version. Since our soft opening on Grant Avenue in July 2026, it has been one of the most talked-about items on the menu.
Local restaurant accounts have praised its flavour and well-balanced spice. It makes a quick lunch near Grant Park, an easy dinner on the way home, or a hearty partner for a bubble tea.
Omai Tea is at 1389 Grant Avenue, at Grant and Waverley in River Heights, a short trip from Grant Park, Crescentwood and Tuxedo. We’re open every day from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. for dine-in and takeout, and you can order online for pickup.
Round out your order with a Roasted Rice Milk Tea with Egg Foam, a Coconut Matcha or a Vietnamese Coffee with Signature Cloud. Want a second sandwich? Try the Grilled Lemongrass Chicken Bánh Mì.
