So Ba Vietnamese Restaurant

I loved the Dau Hu Rang Muoi (fried tofu). This dish will turn the biggest tofu critic into a tofu lover. Also, I ordered the Pho Xao Chay (vegan) rice vermicelli noodles, and it was delicious. Will be back for more!

I just have to take a moment to shout out Soba Vietnamese Restaurant for the amazing positive energy and warm, welcoming atmosphere that seems to be the new standard there! I’ve left a review before, but I couldn’t pass up the chance to share another after today’s experience.

Ben, who took my order over the phone, was exceptionally pleasant and calming, and that same welcoming spirit carried over when I picked up my food. It’s rare to encounter such consistent kindness and professionalism, and it truly made me feel valued as a customer. Whatever changes have been made at Soba are definitely working, because the difference in the customer service experience is light years ahead of what it used to be.

Kudos to Ben for going above and beyond, and to the management and entire team for creating an environment where patrons feel like they truly matter. Whether dining in or taking out, it’s clear that Soba is committed to making every experience exceptional. Keep up the great work!

So Ba be so gooood. The spot for perfectly spiced pho. You can smell it cooking from the outside. The fried tofu made me like tofu again? 90s hip hop on the speakers makes it feel like you’re in NYC. Wish I found it sooner.

Food: My short ribs had burnt ends but the non-burnt pieces were good

Service: I sat at the bar so my service was okay. The one star comes from a group who sat in the bar area but wasn’t served. That group eventually left. Another group sought to sit in that same place and the bartender lets that group know that she will come by

Update: the food is still amazing. The drinks were good. The service is even slower than before. Only one really helpful server, the other guy you practically had to beg to come back and after he dropped water. We got our own menus. Asked to have our drink order and appetizer order taken. The nice guy that brought the app is the one we asked to take our food order. The check was the only thing fast. We still go because the food is great. There was a wait when we left, so others love the food, too.

Fun place. Food is always good. Have been at least a dozen times and the food has never disappointed. I enjoy taking out of town guests. Service is typically slow. If that bothers you, sit at the bar.

We were in the area and got takeout from So Ba. We ordered through GrubHub which sent confusing texts about order ready, but not the fault of restaurant. I was greeted by first person I saw. The staff were polite and it only took about 15 mins from placing order to receiving our food.
The food was packaged beautifully. Spring rolls were fresh with good peanut sauce. The pho was separated which made it easy for us to make our own bowls at home. The pho…delicious! This was different from most I’ve had as there were background spices in the broth which made it very flavorful! All of the meats in the pho were tender and tasty. The prices were very reasonable. Will eat here agin for sure!

I've been coming here for over a decade and I'm so disappointed in what this place has become. Service is absolutely horrific. Probable the worst service I've had in Atlanta horrific. I actually came 3 additional times before today before posting a review, but it just got worse every time. Food is great, so it's unfortunate.

The food here is really great! However, they need to decide if they want to be a takeout restaurant or a full service. We say for an hour waiting for our appetizers, to be told that the kitchen was prioritizing takeout.

Truly one of my favorite go to spots. I’m obsessed with the fried tofu with extra veggies dipped in hoisin sauce, and I personally am on a chicken pho kick. Love their broth so much. Honorable mention to the filet and fried rice too. Vibe is good, usually always spots to sit. Service can be inconsistent but there are a couple great ones in there. It’s a delicious eav gem.
