Rau Bistro: Vietnamese Street Food

The beef carpaccio was a bit too much fish sauce compared to other Vietnamese restaurants. I’ve had better in other places. The pho broth was not the best, I like to have it OG so I can taste all the flavours. Didn’t really have depthness to it. Pretty bland. I’d recommend going sate for more flavour. Ice coffee was great. Rolls were great. Very filling vermicelli dishes. Overall very good. Just wished their pho broth was better because this place would be a 5⭐️

Food here is excellent and tastes authentic, with standout pho, other noodle soups and vermicelli bowls Bun Thit Nuong, etc.). We also tried the Beef 7 Courses, which was a fun experience and very tasty. Good service, pleasant atmosphere, overall a great Vietnamese spot.

We might’ve found the best vermicelli in town yet. They also have very tasty boba drinks as they use fresh fruits. It is a great spot for Vietnamese cravings.

The vibe of this place is super cute, and the service was quick and friendly. I ordered Soup 1 Pho dac biet and Soup 7 Bun bo hue (The picture with a red circle of spice is the BBH). I was really excited to try it out since it had a 4.7 rating, but the Bun Bo Hue did not really hit the mark for me. It did not taste as authentic as others I have had. The broth was a bit bland, even though it had the usual Bun Bo Hue smell. It kind of tasted more like pho broth with some fermented paste added in.

The pork slices looked more like BBQ pork with that red pink edge, which surprised me since I was expecting the usual white pork belly. The beef slices were really overcooked and tough, but the ham and pork blood were so delicious! I think this dish would make more sense if it was advertised as a version of Bun Bo Hue rather than the traditional kind. It was not bad tasting, just not what I expected. I did not love it, but I am sure other people might.

The pho broth was really tasty, but the noodles were a bit overcooked and some of the beef shank tasted as it had gone bad, so I just picked those out. The beef slices were also pretty overdone. I probably would not get the noodle soups again, but I do want to try the rice dishes next time as they look amazing when I saw other people get it.

I did get the mascarpone Vietnamese iced coffee and it was amazing. Perfect flavor and a great portion for eight dollars!! I would definitely come back just for that drink.

Food is decent, staff are friendly, atmosphere is nice and well- maintained. A decent choice for those nights when you have a hankering to 'go for pho'.
