50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Takoma Park

“Exquisite cuisine complemented by a charming atmosphere! Their house-brewed Vietnamese coffee tastes and smells so good. The new soft-shell crab with tamarind sauce is so yummy and reasonably priced. I will definitely come back for their delectable chimichurri steak. I will definitely come again to try out the banh mi and other lunch options as well as other authentic Vietnamese items. I love that with a menu brimming with authentic Vietnamese dishes, they also offer a tempting array of vegan and exotic options. It's a great addition to the modernized Takoma Park.“

“Little Saigon is a friendly and welcoming white-tablecloth restaurant offering an extensive Vietnamese menu of deliciously prepared and graciously served appetizers, entrees, and side dishes. On this, our first visit, we were seeking pho, and were amply rewarded with generous snd delicious servings of both a chicken pho and a beef pho, and our vegetarian Spring rolls were a great start. We’ll return soon to sample more of their enticing menu.“

“delicious. service is otherworldly, unlike any place else really. only knock is limited menu, which on the other hand makes ordering really easy. elegant, simple, clean, and, most importantly, the pho broth is the best“

“Phở ngon , thơm , giá công bằng👍“

“I recently had the pleasure of discovering Hello Vietnam, a Vietnamese restaurant located in Rockville, MD, and it was love at first bite. I cannot sing enough praises about this hidden gem. The standout dish at Hello Vietnam is undoubtedly their "phở thố đá sườn bò". This is hands down one of the most special pho dishes I have ever had the pleasure of savoring. The beef ribs are cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. The broth is rich and aromatic, and the noodles are perfectly cooked. It is a true symphony of flavors that is both comforting and oh-so-delicious. There are many other options that are as delicious such as “bánh cuốn”, “bánh đúc, “bún bò Huế”, etc. The best part? The prices at Hello Vietnam are incredibly affordable, making this culinary delight accessible to all. Beyond the exceptional food, the customer service at Hello Vietnam is truly top-notch. The staff members are attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. They know exactly what is expected of them and go above and beyond to ensure that every diner has a memorable dining experience. Their warm and affectionate demeanor makes you feel right at home, adding an extra layer of charm to the overall dining experience. The location of Hello Vietnam is also quite convenient, making it easy to find and access. The restaurant itself is spacious and clean, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere in which to enjoy your meal. Whether you're looking for a quick lunch or planning a leisurely dinner with friends and family, Hello Vietnam has you covered. I have had the pleasure of dining at Hello Vietnam twice now, and I can confidently say that I will keep coming back whenever I am in town. The delicious and unique dishes, exceptional customer service, convenient location, and welcoming setting make this restaurant a true standout in the Rockville dining scene. Don't miss the opportunity to experience it for yourself – you will not be disappointed!“

“This is the kind of place you want spend your money in. small family run, soft shell crab is heavenly and really never had a less than fantastic meal there. For us no better Vietnamese food than Nam Viet. great service too.“

“B + overall. Food was excellent. No photos sorry.

We ordered a Pho dish, a Vermicelli noodles dish, dumplings, and tempura shrimp. All were very good.

Service was fair. Vermicelli noodle dish came out first. 4 minutes later the appetizers. And the Pho never came. We had to go ask for it twice before getting it.

It’s not a “nice place” by any means. Open room, tables. Take a number at the register. They bring the food. Bathrooms were dirty. No paper products.

Food was very good though and worth the money and the trip in. All were very tasty and well prepared.

Recommend“

“Fab place for food and drinks. Great staff and good value“

“I ordered the Pho Tai, Gau... OMG so good. I ordered delivery and it was still fresh. There was no option on the third party app to request extra limes so I called to requests and the individual on the other end was extremely kind. Back to the food, it was GREAT as delivery... I can only imagine it is phenomenal as dine in and piping hot. Bravo.“

“My girlfriend and I went on a mission to find the best Pho in Maryland. This is 100% it. You can smell it the second you enter the front door. The service is so quick and so kind. The food is extremely consistent. Whatever recipe they use is the best!!! And the quality of the fatty brisket is perfect🤌“

“All I can say is .... wonderful pho at this restaurant. Definitely reconmend!.“

“Fast, casual, and flavorful.

Service- you look at the menu through a QR code and either order at the counter or if employees is not busy (with Togo orders) will come over and take your order

Food- pho was so tasty. The broth was full flavors and great portions of protein and veggies.

Space- the space is small and simple. About 8 tables, clean.

I will come back and even order takeout!“

“Absolutely delicious! Staff were friendly, food was prepared quickly and was so flavourful. Highly recommend.“

“Amazing Pho I definitely will be back“

“I had a full meal at this Vietnamese restaurant. The spring rolls were about the same as any other pho restaurant but the broth for the wonton noodle soup did not disappoint. I got it with pho tuoi since i like the fatter rice noodles. I finished my entire bowl!“

“Their pho was tasty, and the banh mi was good, although the pickled vegetables could have been a bit tangier and more generous.

The vermicelli bowl was pretty good too, but the pork didn’t seem to be charcoal-grilled, so it lacked some of that smoky flavor.

The summer rolls were also good.

Overall, a very good Vietnamese restaurant.“

“The workers are all lovely and kind, we chatted while my food was being made. The prices are as normal as any other price, and the food was pretty good. I got a pork sandwich, perhaps I shouldn't have gotten it so spicy but other than that it was enjoyable. Totally reccomend!“

“this was the BEST pho I’ve ever had!! I got their Banh Mirria Sandwich, and it was the most delicious thing i ate all week. The bread was soft and fresh, the beef and cheese were scrumptious. Highly recommend! I’ll be following them around the US for the rest of my life“

“We ordered the pho tai bo vien, grilled pork rice bowl, beef vermicelli, and shrimp spring rolls. Each item was delicious, and tasted crafted and made with love. The pho broth in particular had an incredibly rich and deep flavor. Definitely worth a try!“

“The pho here is great! The broth is warm and flavorful and the meat cuts are perfect. Their garden rolls were so fresh and tasty as well as their chicken crispy rolls! We had to order more towards the end 😅 parking is decent compared to the amount of dine in space available. Staff was nice and attentive by refilling drinks, taking our order and providing more information on the menu. The Beef Pho we got was #19 and was a generous serving. Would highly recommend!“

“great spot for authentic Vietnamese food , I frequently come here for the quality & friendly experience. highly recommended 10/10“

“The broth is so rich and flavorful that there’s no need to add anything else to it. Portion sizes are appropriate and hosts are kind and understanding. A literal hidden gem. Atmosphere is colorful, quaint, and homey. Would absolutely recommend !!!!!“

“ordered delivery. pho was perfect summer rolls were good and plentiful size for 12 year olds appetite. had combo pho and shrimp pho very pleased. wish I could get this where we live!!!“

“Walking into this spot, you are immediately welcomed by a cozy, inviting ambiance and excellent customer service. It is a Vietnamese spot, but the kitchen is run by an all-Salvadoran crew. Having traveled to both El Salvador and Vietnam, experiencing this felt like a beautiful, unexpected cultural fusion that made me feel right at home.

The food completely takes you back. We started with the summer rolls, which were exceptionally fresh and delicious. For the main courses, I ordered the beef special pho, and she got the vermicelli bowl loaded with grilled shrimp and grilled honey lemongrass pork. While my pho was deeply comforting, rich, and a great reminder of the amazing food out in Vietnam, I have to admit I was incredibly jealous of her dish—the vermicelli bowl was absolutely out of this world!

To drink, I tried the iced tamarind topped with peanuts. It is fantastic and heavily reminded me of the refreshing tamarind drinks we enjoy back in the West Indies.

Between the top-tier food, the warm atmosphere, and the friendly service, this place is an absolute five-star neighborhood treasure. I highly recommend it!“

“Quite literally my favorite restaurant in Maryland the owners and staff are so kind and friendly and they always greet me with a smile. I have been coming here since I was just five or six and hopefully continue I’m no longer able to.“

“Good food and good atmosphere.“

“My husband and I finally came here for the first time last week and we’ve been back twice since. The green tea drinks are super fragrant, summer rolls are refreshing, and the pho is Viet-approved. Literally craving it again as I write this!“

“great food and service, was awsome and very filling 😋“

“This was my second time having Pho. I got the shrimp Pho. It was so delicious! The service was nice and attentive. The restaurant was clean. I’ve always loved downtown Silver Spring. It’s vibrant, diverse and good food! Definitely recommend!“

“Great but about just as good as their Rockville counterpart. Favorful soup and fresh veggies. The area here unfortunately isn't as safe feeling so we'll have to stick to Rockville.

Service is fast and cordial. The atmosphere is inviting and business seems always busy.“

“This place is the absolute BEST!!!“

“it was ok, not too pleased with the ambience, lacked lighting and heat.. it was open early, that was a plus for this place“

“The food and service are consistently good. They never fail. Love FSG.“

“Ordered for delivery. The food was so spectacularly delicious. Ordered dumplings, fried rice, and stir-fry noodles. All fantastic. Highly recommend. It also didn’t take as long to receive the food as the website said it would take.“

“Pre-paying for food and tipping for food you didn't get yet is total BS!“

“Korean BBQ sandwich came out hot and with fresh toppings pretty quickly after I ordered. But it was a bit bland, I wish it had more flavor. The payment system is a little confusing, order food on one, then take the receipt over to pay and then you have to use a different system to order drinks. But staff is very friendly and helpful.“

“I LOVE this place! It surprised me to see the number of less-than-stellar reviews, as I’ve had nothing less than a great experience at Ba Le. I’m terribly picky so I can’t comment on the foods and drinks other people order, but I’d wholeheartedly recommend a #12 shrimp sandwich and a mango smoothie! The sandwich is DELICIOUS (I don’t even particularly like sandwiches) and the smoothie is refreshing and lightly sweet. The two people I’ve seen at the counter have been nothing less than helpful and kind, and it’s relaxing and quiet inside. Definitely go and give it a try!“

“The food here is outstanding! Hanne had just created a new fried banana dessert and invited us to be the first to try it—it was absolutely amazing. The prices are very reasonable, the service is warm and personal, and the quality of the food will definitely keep us coming back. I highly recommend giving this place a try. You won’t be disappointed!“

“this was the BEST pho I’ve ever had!! I got their Banh Mirria Sandwich, and it was the most delicious thing i ate all week. The bread was soft and fresh, the beef and cheese were scrumptious. Highly recommend! I’ll be following them around the US for the rest of my life“

“I was with one of my best friends, leaving Ikea, to be honest, and we both realized we were hungry, but I couldn't figure out what type of food I wanted. We were just driving and I saw this place out of the corner of my eye. I knew my friend liked Pho, but I have always been on the fence with it. I decided to check it out anyway and I am beyond thrilled we went.
Let me start with the atmosphere and service. There is a comforting aspect to the way this place is lit, the beautiful blinds, and the nice breeze coming in from the door. The staff was so incredible that I could write an entire review on the service alone. I ordered the one with chicken, brisket and shrimp and we walked around as I waited for my food. I forgot to mention they were closing in 40 minutes. We came back and my friend asked if he could taste the broth. His eyes lit up on the first taste. And the second. And the third. And the forth. You get the picture. He was on his was to the curry place for carry-out but immediately changed his mind and placed his own order. The restaurant was closed at this point but they graciously told him to order and had us sit at a table to eat despite being technically closed. We met the owners (hi David - didn't get the wonderful lady's name) and he said to stay as long as we liked.
This was truly the perfect cap to a lovely day and I strongly encourage everyone to check this place out. These owners are new (4 months in, I believe she said), and the changes they've made are clearly for the better. I wish I could give 20 stars for the hospitality. We will be coming back again and again.“

“Really really good banh mi and pho!!! They make the best golden crepe (banh xeo). This is my favorite Vietnamese place in the DMV because they are fast and the food is very authentic and worth the price. I’ve been coming here for over a year and I always crave the food.“

“Great service and great food. Place always is clean. Good portions of food.“

“Everything was delicious! We especially loved the combo fried rice! The staff was friendly and professional. We stopped by on a whim, but I wish we lived here so we could become regulars. We had no idea we were going to get such quality, authentic Vietnamese food in Arlington!“

“Spot on broth. No condiments required. Hold my beer.“

“love it here! great asian options in a comfy location!“

“Amazing Pho I definitely will be back“
