8 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Charleston

“Oh. My. Goodness. This place is off the chain. Three people. We shared veggie dumplings (wanted to drink the sauce. I ordered spicy garlic lo mein (see photo), friend 1 ordered garlic noodles with chicken, friend 2 had the KFC wings. The flavors are so complex and so good. Perfect noodle texture. Uniquely fabulous combo of the sweet-savory-slightly spicy wings and a smooth and savory blue cheese sauce. And then there's the Vietnamese Coffee. Amazing. I exclaimed about it out loud.“

“Probably the best pho Downtown, Charleston will get for the next decade. Not sure if this was intended but they know how to cater to their surrounding demographic. Without the beansprout garnishes, the broth has too much additives that needs to be diluted down to eatable levels for normies. However most of the customer base are college students and that should be palpable for them. Authentic connoisseur would atleast appreciate the availability of this dish in the area despite pricing, comparatively.“

“I found myself with lots of luggage and a short wait for an Uber in front of Bon Banh Mi on Spring St. - perfect time for a quick bowl of cold noodles with pork dumplings. I eat often at the shop on Ben Sawyer, so it was an easy decision. The food was quick, well prepared, served with great consideration and southern manners, and I didn't have to leave my little bright colored patio table on the Spring St sidewalk for one thing. A lovely little lunch in the sunshine of DT Charleston! Props to you! One more Bon Banh Mi to love in the area!!“

“I have never posted a review in my life. But I have seen negative reviews from people about very frivolous things. I just got lunch for my wife and the young lady that served me was the most professional and courteous person I have ever met. I am posting this so that the owners know how fortunate they are to have her in their business and hope they appreciate what she brings to their business. Her name is Fiona and I am glad to have met her. Thank you Fiona!“
