50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in Chicago

“The Mi bo kho was genuinely the best thing I have ever eaten. I wish i couldve personally thanked the chef. Incredible depth of flavor, huge portion, and an assortment of extras to customize the flavor. My friend got the Bun rieu and loved it just as much, great seafood flavor and light but flavorful broth. We shared the bun xeo and loved that as well, especially with the added herbs and sauce! The entire staff were so kind and welcoming. Do not miss this place if you are in the area! And come hungry- you will want to eat a lot.“

“excellent food - we both the spring rolls and the egg rolls. the crab fried rice and vegetable salad with rice noodles were also really tasty.“

“I stopped in here on a very hot and humid day for lunch. I got the BBQ Pork Banh Mi and the Passion cooler. They were both delicious and came out quick. I think I came in not long after they opened, so I was the only one dinning in. The Staff are friendly and I'll come back whenever I'm craving a Banh Mi.“

“The food is made fresh and so delicious.“

“That curry dish was absurdly delicious.

Not cheap but I don’t mind paying for excellent quality. Drinks bumped up the tab but were mid teens each. Pretty standard. The wings were also standouts and prawns in chili were also good but that curry….“

“Best pho and spring rolls on Argyle“

“🚨 New favorite spot alert in Downtown Naperville! 🚨 Discovered an amazing gem that’s now a go-to for both lunch and dinner. The food? Absolutely incredible. My top picks: 🍗 Ginger Chicken Perfectly seasoned with ginger, grilled onion, and soy sauce – so flavorful and satisfying. 🍜 Pho They’ve nailed it! Each bowl comes loaded with onions, scallions, cilantro, and all the fresh fixings like basil, beansprouts, and lime on the side. Comfort food at its finest. Bonus: They’re open for lunch, which is such a win! Highly recommend checking this place out if you’re in the area. Downtown Naperville just keeps getting better! 🙌“

“This was my fist time at 4 Seasons and everything was amazing! The food was so good and so fresh, I’ll definitely be coming back. Lee, who I think is the owner, was so nice and welcoming. My girlfriend and I split a banh mi pork sandwich along with some noodles, pork, and spring rolls.“

“🎊🏮⛩️ Happy Lunar New Year!
Chúc mừng năm mới! 🐎🧧🥠

This my first time dining at King Pho. My friends have been here before and recommended for us to meet up here.

We ordered Phở Tái, Bún Tôm Nướng, Spring Rolls and Crab Rangoon. It was plenty for 3 people and took some home. They also have a huge menu with Smoothies and Bubble Tea. I looking forward to trying the teas and other menu items“

“Absolutely wonderful, some of the best and affordable Vietnamese food in Chicago! Service was super friendly, a person in our group has an allergy to green onion. The staff went out of their way to redo the food and even come out to apologize! No one even does that?! The food had amazing flavors and while I wish the Bun Cha Ha Noi was served in a bowl with the fish sauce broth, the flavors were excellent. Atmosphere, feels like I’m in Vietnam with my chill RnB playlist (Malcom Todd, Daniel Caeser, Bruno Mars), doesn’t get much better than that. Could not recommend this place enough! The 5pm opening time is not to be mistaken! Also, if you come order the Bo Ne, Bo La Lot, or the Pho Seafood. Truly a wonder deep in the heart of the Chicago.“

“This is such a hearty broth, so many warm spices. It was the spot I just went to because it’s open late, but upon trying other Pho spots this stayed at the top. The meat is always such high quality. And the wait staff is are very warm and accommodating.“

“The 3 different Banh Mi’s I’ve had here were ok. Bread was the best part. Everything was fresh but protein lacked flavor. The crab rangoon’s were the best thing I’ve ordered from here. Crunchy with a lot of filling. Fried rice was just ok. Staff was upbeat and friendly. I’d give it a 7 out of 10.“

“Friendly staff unique menu. Very child friendly. Made good. Use of the space hot chocolate, fried chicken and donuts were out of this world delicious… overall a unique one-of-a-kind experience was had“

“Hoanh Long in North Park is straight fire. Hit it up for lunch – kicked things off with two shrimp spring rolls, then a massive beef pho and spicy lemongrass stir-fry with tofu. Broth legit rich, stir‑fry packed with flavor, and the portions were huge—perfect Chicago-style appetite. Chill café feels, service super friendly, and parking’s doable before 7pm. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Tasty!! One of the only places in the city where I could find banh khot- it was perfectly crispy and tasty. The cashier/server was also very kind and attentive! He was alone but held things down very well and was consistently checking in and refilling our waters. Overall a clean, cozy space with tasty food. Would come again!“

“Hands down the best viet food in Chicago. From presentation, flavors, and fresh herbs. They easily set the standards for what viet food should be and no place on Arglye can compare.“

“I searched far and wide for fresh soy milk (unsweetened and sweetened) and tofu & this shop has that + pandan soy milk, tofu pudding, lemongrass fried tofu, & more. If you’re in argyle definitely worth checking out. Apple Pay & card accepted, though it’s good to pay in cash if you can. Great prices (2.75 cash for some lemon grass fried tofu)“

“I come here often for Vietnamese iced coffee and Thai iced tea - they make the best of both of these that I’ve had in the city.

The curry chicken banh mi is very good. The lemongrass chicken though was very dry and could use something to make the bites go down easier, but that’s my one and only complaint about anything from here“

“One of my go-to’s in the city. The bo ba lot sausages are delicious whether in a banh mi or spring roll. I always recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the argyle area or wanting a relatively inexpensive lunch/dinner option for delivery.“

“I had dinner at Le Colonial Chicago during my visit, and it was an exceptional experience from the moment I walked in. The restaurant has a beautiful, elegant atmosphere inspired by French-Vietnamese heritage, creating a space that feels both sophisticated and inviting.

I ordered a few dishes to share, and every plate was beautifully presented and full of flavor. The ingredients tasted fresh, the seasonings were well-balanced, and each dish showcased a nice blend of French and Vietnamese influences. The cocktails were also expertly crafted and complemented the meal perfectly.

The service was outstanding. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and made thoughtful recommendations that enhanced the entire dining experience without ever feeling rushed.

One tip: make a reservation ahead of time, especially for dinner, as it's a popular destination. If you're dining with friends, order several dishes to share so you can experience more of the menu.

Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Le Colonial Chicago. Thank you to the entire team for the outstanding food, impeccable service, and elegant atmosphere. I would happily return on my next visit to Chicago.“

“It was our first time there and we had a great experience. Food was delicious. Service was great and friendly staff. Everything is made fresh to order including their ginger green tea and cherry pomade.“

“Great food and great service“

“Skip the pho and try the kimchi stew!! Lowkey better than my mom's. Kimchi is super ripe making the stew so good! Perfect for those cold Chicago days. Owner is Korean and super friendly, he always comes by after I get my food to chat a little.“

“This place is special to me because it’s one of the few places in Chicago, from my experience, that has sugarcane juice. I think they add some lemon to it. I’m a big fan, it’s balanced and refreshing this way. Their lemongrass chicken bahn mi is so delicious too. The cherry on top is the great service I get every time I come here. They serve the food to your table and the lady at the cash register is always nice.“

“Our 1st time there we got the chef special, which is sort of like a sampler plate. Almost everything was delicious. The pho was out of this world. The meat was delicious. The shrimp tofu thing was delicious period. The sausage was so interesting and different and yummy. The sweet sauce was yummy and out of this world. I can't wait to go back and try other things. My partner had the shrimp with vermicelli, and he loved it. The jasmine tea is great, but I'll bring splenda next time. I don't know the name of the dishes but I just read the English. I Highly recommend this small size restaurant.“

“I want to go again! I’m 5 hours away so I better start driving now.“

“We tried Pho no. 1 Brewing tonight and we were really happy with it! We’ll be back again for sure! The Pho was a little sweeter than I expected, but it was my first time having it so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The beef skewers, egg rolls, and wings were amazing. All four of us left full and happy! Definitely recommend!“

“Very relaxing place to sit and enjoy Pho soup“

“The food is made fresh and so delicious.“

“We stopped by for a quick dinner, and it turned out to be a great choice. The pho was delicious, full of flavor, and the fresh shrimp rolls were just as good. Everything tasted fresh, and the portions were satisfying. We really enjoyed our meal and would definitely come back again to try more dishes from the menu.“

“This place just breathed new life into me on a day that was...A LOT to say the least. So tasty, thanks y'all! ✨“

“My first time there, and the food was great. Service was okay. But large portions- they’re very busy but try their best to accommodate everyone. Clean restrooms and restaurant. I would go back.“

“Excellent selection. Great atmosphere.“

“Amazing, Merry Christmas!!“

“This place is always a winner with their delicious drinks! So unique and so satisfying! Love all the textures and combinations! I would try everything if I could!“

“I was the last customer of the night I got there right before closing the lady was so nice my dinner was great I will definitely go back.“
