12 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near San Rafael

“Unironically the best Vietnamese food I’ve ever had. The staff were incredibly friendly too. The B2 and spring rolls are absolutely amazing. Restaurant was pretty quiet (we were the only customers there the whole time), but is definitely a hidden gem.“

“This is the best Bahn Mi sandwich I’ve had in the Marin… dare I say the Bay Area. The menu is limited and the decor is simple inside but the owner and staff are super nice and friendly. They make sandwiches quickly. And the bang mi sandwiches are amazing. I think it’s the bread. Their bread is great.

Menu is limited to chicken, tofu/veggie, pork and ham and cheese banh mi, but one they make incredible sandwiches.

Highly recommend this place if you’re craving Vietnamese Bahn Mi sandwiches.“

“Before today I was certain that there were no good Vietnamese restaurants in Marin. Then I tried Pho. What a find.

Very simple basic menu, but everything was perfect. Flavorful, fresh, generously sized, good service. Everything was right. We are talking San Francisco - San Jose level of excellence for Vietnamese food. I used to think you had to go to the City to find great Vietnamese food, But now we have it local here in San Rafael. The other Vietnamese restaurants around town can't even compare. This restaurant is now on my short list. Coming back. Five star.“

“From the moment I walked in, I knew this place was special. The aroma of simmering broth instantly pulled me in, and every bite lived up to the promise. The pho was perfection — rich, fragrant, and full of depth, with tender slices of beef and perfectly cooked noodles. You can taste the care and tradition in every spoonful.

Whether you’re a pho fanatic or trying it for the first time, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again!“

“The best sandwiches around!! I tried #2 & 5. Like them cuz they are the least bready, most crunchy sandwiches. The meat is flavorful and the crispy crunchy veggies really add a lot of texture and flavor. This is not about atmosphere, it’s all about flavor & texture.“

“They have the best food. Anything you order will amaze your tastebuds. We get 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ service every time. Course it helps we go every weekend!!“

“Ordering is done via a pad - no cash! And : NO TOILET. That is had. And it is a dine in location. I thought that is a requirement. Also, traditional banh mi is $11.50 but if you order it, it has a $1 surcharge for a traditional banh mi. Makes no sense and seems like a scam. Place is nicely designed. Clean. Wait is a bit longer than in comparable places. Food is good. It won some BEST OF MARÍN awards. The announcement that your meal is ready is done HOA a DMV like loud announcement….“

“Best broth ever! I door dashed the rare steak and brisket (pho tai chin) for lunch today, it was amazing 😫 I had been feeling a little sick all day and I think this broth cured me. I want to buy the broth and just drink it. Also when it got delivered to me the broth was hot and they included plenty of toppings, some sauce, a lime slice, and utensils with a napkin. Very yummy thank you very much for the delicious meal. 😊“

“Really good food - we got the Korean fried chicken banh mi, which had a nice sweet heat to it. And the curry tofu was also nice and crispy. My sister literally was drinking the salad dressing. Also they were very nice, making us a half veggie and half chicken banh mi.“

“Best Banh mi EVER. Mill Valley location has perfected this sandwich. Good quality meat, portions of each individual ingredient- spectacular. And I'm dying to know what was in their chili oil, it was very unique and flavorful. I get bbq pork but the flavor somehow still feels traditional to a patay. Will be patronizing often, I recommend you do too.“

“The spicy beef and pork pho heat turned down is my favorite. The potstickers are back to corte madera level. Prices are very fair. My daughter makes ua come up 20’mins north and its still worth it. A nice jewel on Grant Ave to enjoy. The Lychee Pork (or Chicken) and the Fish Pot are also fantastic.“

“Amazing people, helping the community during the Corona Virus pandemic💖 Great boba drinks and the ability to make items gluten free!“
