50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Carmichael

“I go here about once every two weeks . I love the food or just for the shake with the boba . I recommend this restaurant to neighbors who live in the neighborhood and bring people from out of the state when visiting . The atmosphere and cleanliness is impeccable . The receptionist / waitress has got to be the most unfriendliness person I have ever met in my 84 yrs of life . It is impossible to even get a friendly smile let alone words or a “thank You” . It is a big turn off. I have neighbors who will not go there because of her. It is hard to ignore .“

“had lunch with the girlfriend and we both enjoyed our lunch. will be back and recommend all to try 🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“The place is always clean The people are always nice The pho is fire I love the number 33 sandwich My family and I drove all the way from the mountains to have mama’s. It feels like home“

“Bún bò Huế is delicious, convenience location, great service 👍🏼“

“The food is excellent. It’s always fresh. And always hot.“

“We just enjoyed probably the best Pho we have eaten. Service was quick and the food was excellent. I tried the honey ginger tea and it was so good hot. The peanut sauce served with the spring rolls was warm, and the brisket in the pho was thicker cut and very lean.“

“The best Vietnamese Pho cuisine ever!!!“

“Out-of-this-world delicious!

I was craving authentic Vietnamese crispy pork egg rolls, but ended up ordering so much more—and I’m so glad I did!

We ordered the wings, pho, pork egg rolls, and beef skewers, and every single dish was absolutely fantastic!

The LaSam Combo Pho was loaded with incredibly tender meats, fresh vegetables, and a rich, flavorful broth that was simply outstanding. The wings were perfectly crispy, with just the right balance of spice and sweet honey glaze. The beef skewers were tender with beautifully crisp edges, seasoned to perfection and bursting with flavor.

And the pork egg rolls? They absolutely hit the mark! Golden, crispy, perfectly seasoned, and exactly what I had been craving.

But I have to give a special mention to the fish sauce. It was so flavorful, perfectly balanced, and not overly fishy in the slightest. In fact, it was so delicious I could have practically drunk it on its own!

The restaurant was clean, comfortable and the staff extremely friendly. Every dish exceeded my expectations. Fresh ingredients, incredible flavors, and food clearly prepared with care. This place absolutely nailed it, and I can’t wait to come back and explore more of the menu!“

“The best garlic noodles with fish sauce fried chicken I've ever tasted! A must try! Portions were also generous. However, the pho was just okay.

2026 Update. Noodles are still the best! The peanut sauce wasn't that peanutty and the spring rolls tasted better with the hoisin sauce.
Met the nice owner and family who were eating in the booth next to us.“

“My wife and I found that the quality of food and service were absolutely fantastic!!“

“My husband and I often have Pho after our Dr appointments at UCD. We had an amazing lunch two weeks ago and were so impressed, we had to go back! I had the Seafood Pho and husband had rare steak Pho. Wow! The broths were very different and very tasty. The service is awesome and the staff great. They are friendly and attentive. The restaurant is clean and inviting. It’s very well lit . The prices are reasonable and portions grand. This is their 35 th anniversary. You will not be disappointed.“

“10/12/2021 Recommend? Yes. Let's get straight to the point: BEST VEGAN BUN BO HUE. That's it. I'm Vietnamese and since my vegan journey of more than 2 years I haven't been able to find a satisfactory bun bo hue. My favorite ones ever have always been in Viet Nam at a little stall in the market or the neighborhood house that makes it to sell. Here I ordered bun bo hue and cha gio. Do take my review with a grain of salt because I had been hungry for daysssss, well really just 1 day because I was on a train. Lol. The bun bo hue here comes with a paste and you should definitely add it to your bowl. It has banana blossom as a veggie to add, but in addition to that I would also love some morning glory. The broth was well seasoned and not overly sweet like a lot of over bun bo hue and the mushrooms, tofu, and "meats" have well absorbed the flavor of the broth too. The cha gio (eggrolls, spring rolls) were fine. I didn't hate it, but I didn't think they were extra great either.“

“I've been coming here since their old location since 2002. I come for the food, and the sense that these are my "aunties" making the food. I don't know another place that sells pork belly banh mi, but here. If there is, I doubt it would fill up the sandwich as much as they do here. The duck salad and lotus root salad is so refreshing too!“

“Everything we ordered was good! Will definitely comeback ❤️❤️❤️“

“Top tier customer service. you can tell the owner really cares about the experience and wants his restaurant to succeed. He spilled a very minute amount of soup on his serving tray and not even on my table and he gave me an extra broth on the side.

Budget friendly pricing. I paid less than 20 to get a pho bowl with beef flank, beef balls and BEEF RIB. I couldn’t finish and had to get togo and I am 155lbs. (bowl looks small, contents are not 😭)

Food is also very delicious and not too oily. tastes fresh and I don’t feel like knocking out from food coma after a big meal.“

“Very tasty sandwiches. Great coffee.“

“This is the best place in town for pho! I come here once a week . lol! Finally we found the best pho! Thank you!!! I can only finish half a bowl though. I have to bring the leftovers home. Great service!“

“I had a great experience here. My friend loved the pho and I enjoyed the fresh rolls (GREAT peanut sauce) and tomato & tofu. There was some confusion bc of the language barrier but we ended up getting some free and very tasty soft tofu pudding. I want to go back soon to try the “egg” rolls and get noodles. I forgot cash so I had to go to the atm at the store across the parking lot. Everyone who worked there was so nice to us too!“

“Absolutely Delicious food 😋“

“I have been here several times by myself, today was the first time that I took one of my Asian friends the true test. I am glad to say that I was correct this place is above average in food quality and just below perfect in customer service. I definitely would recommend Pho Viet. They were definitely observing social distance procedures, and it didn't effect the great customer service.“

“Pho City is hands down the best Vietnamese Pho sopt in the greater Sacramento area. It's not just a cool restaurant to dine in, it's great if you want to take away your food as well. The beef pho is the best dish in my opinion, but the chicken soup/pho is just as good. The egg rolls are exceptional. This place came highly recommended and did not disappoint. I recommend to you figure out there. One minor knock is that it is the most excitement pho in Sacramento. But, it's worth every cent.“

“My favorite place to get a nice bowl of noodles. The chicken noodle is delicious. I love my mom's chicken noodle but when I'm looking for more flavor, this is where I go. No disrespect mom. It feels healthy and tasty. The why noodle is nice and soft and the chicken has flavor. The broth is flavorful while feeling clean. And the ginger sauce is my favorite. It's also one of the more affordable places to get food.“

“This is the only place that sells fresh Banh It Ram. The outside looks like a hole in a wall but then when you walk inside it’s modern looking and it’s pretty clean. But I will say it’s not like a traditional restaurant where they greet you and a host leads you to the table. No one greeted me, so I had to walk to the cashier desk to order. An older Vietnamese lady who didn’t speak English took my order. She gave me the menu and I ordered the Banh It Ram ($9.50) and the Pho Tai Nam small bowl ($15.95). I waited about 10-15 mins for my order. The pho came out first. The broth was pretty good and rich. The meat was very tender too. They served my pho with shredded cabbages instead of the normal bean spouts which was different to me. I definitely like how there is all the different sauces, spices and fish sauce bottle on the table after going to a place where they didn’t have any it was very reassuring. Then they gave me the Banh it Ram. They serve you 3 big pieces and side of fish sauce. I thought it was good. The dough was very chewy and the pork inside was very flavorful. It was also very hot. Dipping it in the fish sauce enhances the flavor. But I wish it was crispier. This is the only place that serves it fresh so the second time I came here, I got two rice plates and another order of Banh it Ram to go because I wanted my boyfriend to try it. He thought the mochi was good and the filling was flavorful. For the rice plates we ordered number 39 and 40. Which had the grilled pork chop and charbroiled pork, shrimp cake, eggs, rice and vegetables ($18.95/each). The rice plates were very delicious. It was very filling and it was good for left overs. I would probably come back here to try the Bun Bo Hue and the other dishes. I do wish it was cheaper but that’s how it is now. Still very good though.“

“Wonderful food order Beef rib pho even though there is little mix up but they fix it right away and even give us a beef ribs as a comp and Combination pho and had great customer service and very friendly. Have alot of amazing choice of food in the menu cant wait to come back and try more! and have cute little private cabana to sit outside and outdoor sitting if you dont want to sit inside, but if you come inside there plenty of tables and they huge bar and even stage for live music and karaoke with even VIP table like your at the club.“

“The best Chinese food i have had and the servers are very polite. Inside the restaurant the surroundings are more than you expect after you pay most times I pay less than $20 for me and my wife. Never had a long wait and as nice as it all is not too many people there always quite.“

“Firehouse Restaurant is an absolute gem! This historic steakhouse delivers a beautiful, elegant ambiance paired with outstanding steaks and a fantastic menu. The service was amazing from start to finish—special thanks to Nick for going above and beyond and making our experience truly exceptional. Highly recommend for a special night out!“

“Driving in the evening, I decided to try this Vietnamese restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. The dining room had a relaxed atmosphere, and the staff greeted guests warmly. The pho had a comforting depth with balanced spices and a clear, well-crafted broth. Fresh herbs added brightness, while the noodles remained tender without becoming soft. It’s a place where the simplicity of the dishes highlights the quality of preparation.“

“great pho, awesome service..will be returning to try more. highly suggest egg roll deluxe“

“menu is light, simple and easy to decide. Service was friendly and fast! Beef pho broth was tasty too.“

“This place was amazing! Service was fast and the waitress was very kind and patient! Food was out fast and don't even get me started on the food! Heaven-sent with the first bite!! My friend and I were going to take pictures but couldn't resist the food for long! 100/10 coming here again!“

“Been supporting this place most of my teens and college years, I recommend this place to anyone looking for a lot of variety such as , pho , Banh Mi , snacks , drinks and anyone looking for ready to go food. Come early sometimes lines can be long. Expect delays too , sometimes they are short staff and get help from security which really is a great help to them.“

“Me and my mama would always stop by to get some pho here when I was young. I grew up eating here and I would always get the same meatballs and noodles. We used to be regulars and the lady that always served us was so kind. She had a very beautiful smile. Thank you for being a part of my childhood.“

“been yrs since I've dined. Will certainly be back on my circuit of restaurants. Great food service. very enjoyable“

“They famous with their tofu that has mushroom, rice noodle. They only accept cash. The inside is small and dark. It's kind of un- organized, it seems like many things happening althoug there's a line. The line, place making order and payment is kind of messed up.“

“The food in this restaurant is amazing and it’s truly reflex Vietnam cultural. The service is very well and people at restaurant are really friendly and nice and they gave me the most wonderful time there. I would recommend this place for people who has intend to visit Sacramento.“

“The food is super yummy! I’ve been here various times now and have tried the combo chow mein, shrimp pho, orange chicken, pork bun, and fried egg rolls and everything was delicious and FRESH. The customer service is 10/10 too as I needed help ordering the pho that I never had tried before and she was very patient and kind helping me figure out what I wanted. The restaurant doesn’t have a lot of foot traffic but do not let that deter you from trying this place. Definitely a hidden gem.“

“If you aren't familiar with TK Noodle, buckle up! Order a number one, ask for the pork rinds, throw some things (condiments) at your table in it, and enjoy. People don't come here for the ambiance nor scenery. It's good food, quick service, and then get. Other folks are probably waiting on your table. Also, just park in an open spot, even if it's a trek in.“

“reasonable price and good goods. staffs are nice“

“Yesterday 9/11/2026 I was getting ready to have dinner with a friend at this restaurant and a cockaroach came out and was on the table. When I told the server they got rid of it but seemed like it wasn't a big deal. Then I told the person at the register and they acted like nothing. Just wanting everyone to know there is roaches in this restaurant.“

“This place is a very good spot. Very well rounded in all the food. The portions are good and very reasonable for a dinner date or just lunch out with the girls. My kids like it, that’s how I found out about it. The waiters understand the orders well and are one point with the orders and food.“

“Would give this like a 4.5. Coffee was amazing, I had the egg custard coffee, 10 out of 10. I had the house special banh mi, portion was huge for the price and the bread was really good, but the ham was a bit gelatinous for my liking and the sandwich was a little dry.“

“This has been our favorite Chinese restaurant since 2024. The food is excellent, making this our preferred place for dining out.

The staff is on the smaller side but they are very kind and handle orders effectively. We've enjoyed many celebratory moments there.

We have never experienced a unreasonable wait time for food, they are actually pretty quick, and the staff has always been kind, so I don't understand why people are quick to lash out on this business.“

“I got the bun bo hue it was really good on point. Very fast and the staff was really nice!“

“I’ve been going to this place for almost a year and I enjoy every aspect of it. I enjoy eating delicious food (perfect in the heat and cold). The people working there are nice and finish making the food at a decent speed. Love bringing my friends here whether they’re also from Sac State or at a different college.“

“A group of 40s #privateevent #celebration #congrat!“

“I really enjoyed my visit here! If you’re looking for a Vietnamese restaurant with a lot of food options, this is definitely a place to check out. The menu has plenty of choices, so there’s something for everyone whether you’re craving traditional Vietnamese dishes, something hearty, or just want to try something different.

The food was flavorful and had that authentic Vietnamese taste I was looking for. I also really enjoyed the atmosphere. The place is well decorated, clean, and has a welcoming vibe that makes you want to sit down, relax, and enjoy your meal.

The business owners were also very friendly and welcoming. You can tell they care about their customers and take pride in their restaurant. Great food, lots of options, friendly owners, and a beautiful setup all in one place.

I definitely recommend giving this Vietnamese spot a try. Whether you’re coming with family, friends, or just looking for a good meal, there’s plenty to choose from. I’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu!“

“Everything is good and i am happy with dinner here. Voted 👍👍👍“

“We ordered some Oysters. And the oysters were delicious. ✨FYI- BUT the workers & order taker, you guys DEFINITELY need to have better communication with your staff & workers. We waited 20mins at the restaurant while the staff members were clueless on our order that we ordered 45mins beforehand. Not knowing we have to go to Oyster Bar in Natomas to pick up. We came from EG. And the staff at the restaurant had no clue & didn’t believe us our text conversation we had with the employers, the ones we contacted for the Oysters order. After about 30 mins wait. We finally got our oysters. But we made sure we counted them. Becuz the employees were NOT friendly. And seemed like they were bothered. But Happy 4th!!“

“The food is amazing! Portions are good size. Best pho and egg rolls in town. Try it and you'll be hooked!“
