Viet Citron is the best Vietnamese restaurant in the area! Their Crispy Pork Belly is better than most bbq specialty shops.

Their pho is flavorful. The roasted pork in the banh mi was juicy! The drinks are great.

Overall, an amazing experience!

Chicken banh mi every time! It's so good. The avocado shake is also delicious. We don't live close by, so we stop here whenever we are in Burlington. Wish there was one in JP!

I’ve never been so disappointed when ordering from a restaurant than I am with this place!! As many pho restaurants around here, I chose them. I specifically asked for not spicy and no chili oil. How did they give me? Extra chili oil and then another spicy sauce with the hoisin mixed in this was for takeout so I didn’t see that I had no hoisin sauce until I got home. That’s where all the flavor comes in then it specifically asks you on the website to add utensils to the order if you need them, which I did And they still didn’t give them to me I’m staying at a hotel!! I spent $40 on a bowl of pho that I can’t even eat!! Even when you’re detailed and specific they still mess it up what’s the sense of adding a comment onto your order if they don’t read it?? Never again!!! There are too many full places in the area for them to mess up that bad

The staff was very nice. My pho had decent flavor, but the rare beef in it was very overcooked. The fresh squeezed limeade was good.

If you're craving authentic Vietnamese flavors, Viet Citron is a must-visit spot! While it leans toward a grab-and-go vibe, their food speaks volumes. Here's what we tried:

🥖Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi (8/10)
This was a solid take on a classic! The artisan Vietnamese baguette was perfection—crispy outside, fluffy inside. The combo of pickled veggies, jalapeños, cilantro, signature aioli, and garlic soy reduction hit all the right notes. The flavors were spot on, but the pork belly was a little too fatty for my taste (also they use a lot of fish sauce so if you arent into that either this may not be for you!). At $12, it’s a great deal for a satisfying sandwich!

🍜 Pho (10/10)
The *star* of the show! Their pho is on another level—cooked for 48 hours, and you can taste every bit of effort in the broth. Rich, aromatic, and comforting, it comes with a side of fresh veggies and dipping sauce. Whether you’re new to pho or a seasoned fan, this is a must-try. A bowl will fill you up for the day, and at $18, it's worth every penny.

🥟 Spring Rolls (9/10)
Crispy, golden perfection! These fried delights were light, flavorful, and impossible to go wrong with. A great appetizer to share or enjoy solo.

If you're shopping at Burlington Mall, skip the food court and head here instead! A giant bowl of pho or a fresh banh mi will leave you satisfied without breaking the bank.

Great food!! Fresh and legit Vietnamese food. The only thing was that their service is a little slow. My husband got his food first and we waited a little bit longer before everyone else's food came on the table. But, food was amazing!

Ordered online. Arrived there at designated time but was told that it is not ready and I was told to wait and will be called when the order but no one called for 15 minutes. The food was sitting in the back for 15 minute, all cold.

The food is excellent here! Ordered take out on a Saturday night, although the food took a little longer than expected it was totally worth the wait! We ordered the chicken pho and well done beef pho. Super flavorful, large portions and steaming hot!

My go-to in the area for Banh Mi, so delicious!

Adorable interior with plenty of space to enjoy your food onsite or to-go. Be sure to check the hours as they are a bit wonky.
