34 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Lexington

“Tried the Khao Soi Chicken Noodle Bowl, and it's delicious. However, I deducted one star because the front staff (a young lady) seemed unhappy about my decision not to tip for a takeout order, which I drove 10 miles to pick up. Additionally, there were too many onions in the bowl; I had to discard them while eating. Furthermore, this is a takeout-only establishment, and they don't mention that anywhere. Otherwise, it’s a decent casual restaurant.“

“This is such a delightful place to come for a drink, a meal, and a date night. The Eaves is a terrific setting for an intimate 2 or 3 person evening. The entrance is a bit tough to find in Bow Market - though after entering, it's to hide the high quality atmosphere that's inside.

We got drinks after being seated and we're impressed by the flavor of drinks indicative of a cosmopolitan feel.

The food was most impressive. The spice level was very high and was balanced with the wonderful flavours provided. The vegetarian salad was a good starter, followed by ceviche and finally, the duck. That duck is still something I am thinking about - tender, juicy, and with just enough spice that makes me want more.

Our service complemented a wonderful evening. The staff were always attentive to our needs, happy to answer questions, and ensure we had a great time. Though it's a bit pricey, The Eaves deserves 5 stars, a bigger place, and another visit from us and others. Thank you for such a great time and hope to come again soon!“

“I stopped by for a BBQ pork Bahn mi around 7pm on a Wednesday. It took less than 10 mins to order and get my sandwich. I noticed 3 to 4 tables were occupied. Which is a good sign. The customer service was great. It was a bit hot in the restaurant and there was a pedestal fan. Perhaps add another, especially for a hot day. The sandwich was excellent. I highly recommend this place.“

“Expect delicious food, chill vibes, and super friendly (fast) service! I will be back! I ordered the pineapple fried rice with chicken, and the Vietnamese iced coffee. Both were absolutely delicious, the iced coffee was very good, strong coffee with the sweetness of the condensed milk. I recommend if you’re looking for a delicious, and quick meal!“

“Good banh mis, would highly recommend taking it to go for a picnic. The beef, pork, and tofu were all flavorful and the ratio of ingredients was right.

The jalapeños were for some reason super spicy. Nice staff and cool vibe inside“

“Great food and service equals great value!!“

“We consider ourselves foodies and ordered take out last week and the food was delicious! In addition the staff was super friendly and gave some great advice on what to order. Great portion sizes. Today my husband and I returned and dined in. Again, the food was so good and people working there were so nice! We will definitely return as well as spread the word to our friends. Go Viet Citron ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!!!“

“If you are ordering for pick up DO NOT use their online ordering system through Door Dash. There’s a $3 surcharge for just picking it up! I also wish the restaurant made people aware of it on Google.

My order was missing fish sauce so I called the restaurant and Molly the person I reached was really helpful in getting the situation resolved.“

“This small shop has really good banh mi! I'm a vegetarian, and have repeatedly gotten the tofu banh mi, but I've taken people here and they have enjoyed the pork and chicken banh mi as well. The staff are always super nice. I would 100% recommend this place for the food and pleasant customer service.

Vegetarian options: The tofu banh mi is really good.“

“We always do take-out, so I can't really comment on service or atmosphere in the restaurant, but they are always quick to get our take-out food ready (15-20 minutes). The food is delicious. We get a variety of soups, noodle dishes, and appetizers. We've never been disappointed. Consistently great food.“

“My family loves Banh Mi Cafe! We have tried all different menu items here and everything is consistently delicious. Highly recommend the Vermicelli Bowl, Fresh Spring Roll, Banh Mi, Kumquat Ai Yu Lemon Basil Seed drink, Peach Tea, Ube Flaming Brown Sugar Crème Brûlée drink, Macarons, and Vietnamese Fermented Yogurt!! Nancy’s always so warm and welcoming. We feel very lucky to have such a gem in Watertown.“

“My gf and I traveled a good 45 minutes to get here and it was totally worth it! I had ordered the Pad Thai and it was super delicious. I also had the Thai iced tea and although pretty sweet it was very refreshing and worth getting. I'll definitely be coming back with her soon!“

“Food is delicious and great price“

“The food is always so satisfying here! Lots of vegetables. Vegetarian dishes, soups.! I had lemongrass salmon today.. my mom had the kimchi rice. Friendly service. Don’t forget about the Thai tea? I have never had a bad dish year. I have been coming for years.“

“This is a great take out spot, and the prices CANNOT be beaten ! Consistent, delicious, and cheap-what more could you want from a Viet place? Maybe better parking, but not a far walk/stroll from the municipal lot. Did I mention fast? They ONLY do take out, so find a nice picnic spot or bring it home. Bahn Mi holds up for a long drive“

“The Dac Biet soup was so tasty! The beef was a little chewy but everything else was perfectly cooked. I ordered a virgin pina colatta which I loved!! I also tried a Cosmo, it was pretty flavorful but a little too strong. I will definitely come again soon, I loved the look and comfortability of the restaurant.“

“My boyfriend and I stumbled upon Siagon Babylon and it has easily become one of our favorite Boston restaurants. The plates are small and I recommend getting a couple to share (tapas style). We loved that each dish had classic southeast asian flavors, but was so unique. You will not find dishes like this anywhere else in Boston. Excited to come back for more!“

“Excellent food and service! Will try it again soon!“

“Best PHO IVE HAD SO FAR ❤️“

“Their pho salad cured salmon (5/5) was one of my favorite foods from my Boston/Cambridge trip. It was a unique dish that I'd never seen at any Vietnamese restaurant before and it was so good! While toppings were cold and fresh, the noodle was warm and it was delicious. Strongly recommend it!

Turmeric golden latte was just okay (3/5).

Everything is self serve here - you get in line, pay for your food, find yourself a seat, and go grab your food/utensils/water when they call you.“

“the pho is good and mochi donuts are decent (they're appear to be a mix of standard flour and glutinous rice flour deep fried), but the portion sizes relative to the price leaves a lot to be desired

the amount of pho you get is roughly the same size as a giant instant noodle soup cup and the mochi donut is the size of a standard donut but about triple the price...“

“Great food and staff! Will visit again!“

“Food is great, ordered a pho and a spring roll 😋“

“Great beef & noodle Pho Salad 😋“

“Not variety of options for vegetarian people, but my non veg friends loved their foods! The fried rice is just average.

Editing after been here tens of times, this is my favorite Thai place around. Their thai tea- oh wow, super. Khao soi and drunken noodles are my favorite. Fried rice is my go-to option for Thai cuisine, and theirs isn't just as good as their other items mentioned above.

They make you wait until the full group has arrived, so prep if you don't want to wait in the cold.“

“Great beef & noodle Pho Salad 😋“

“Came for a late lunch with a friend. So many great options, ended up deciding on the Tom Yum Noodle soup. Surprised with the topping choices, but the pork and fish balls were tasty. Broth was good but not enough, noodles not fully submerged even. Could’ve had more of that familiar tang of Tom yum as well. Friend had the pho, had a taste and the broth was so nice and rich. Overall really good and looking to try the pho next time!“

“Went on $1 wing Wednesday with a group of four, great experience. They are very upfront with the fact that you must order a drink/side to “unlock” the wings. $10 each for beer and another $10 for some wings, each wing uniquely large and delicious. We will be returning on a very near future Wednesday.“

“Got lunch here for the first time while working on the field in the Harvard IT department. I work around the West Campus a lot so I'm looking for more lunch spots. The kiosk is easy to use and navigate, the wait time was short. The pho was great and made for a nice warm bowl of broth and noodles in this cold weather. The noodles are well cooked. The broth was hot and had good seasoning. Lots of toppings and meat. My note of no lime and ginger was fulfilled.

However, my only complaint is that I also ordered a Brown Sugar boba milk tea and had to immediately spit it out as the taste of spoiled milk hit. I had my colleague at the office try it and he too also noticed it didn't taste like Brown Sugar boba milk tea and compared it to spoiled milk. I'm not going to give a 1 star because the review doesn't deserve that, but just a -1 for my drink. Might try again another day...but thanks for reading my review!“

“? God willing ?, ? the company needs no introduction ? and dealing above the excellent, and a great speed in the achievement and I thank the honorable and decent manager of the company A_ Ehab for the good reception, the upscale dealing, the cheerful face, and the smile to all customers, may God increase the likes of him ??????“

“Delicious.

Papaya salad ✅.

The restaurant has a lot of windows which allow in a lot of natural light.

Large menu with offerings besides pho for those that are not inclined to pho.

The food is fresh and very flavorful.

I would come back anytime.“

“Food is warm and cozy on a rainy night! Everything we’ve ordered is always prepared quickly and with care, and tastes just as you’re hoping. Portions are generous and always piping hot. We keep coming back!

Vegetarian options: Most items can be made vegetarian with tofu or just veggies.

Parking: There always seems to be free street parking right outside.

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of options for picky kiddos.“

“It was delicious speedy clean polite staff loved the place definitely going back with the family.“

“Pho # 1 Woburn has some of the best Pho is MA. Highly recommend number 40, lots of different cuts of beef, and the broth is delicious. The medium is plenty of food, left satisfyingly full. The shrimp toast app is our favorite app as well. Salty and umami you can't stop eating it. For seafood lovers, number 46 is excellent with lots of different seafood in an excellent broth.“
