50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Jersey City

“Pho was amazing.. 10/10..“

“Wonderful restaurant with beyond wonderful and fast service...some of the best pho I have had in forever! And the server was so wonderful to put up with our group. The amount of food you get is beyond amazing and delicious! Definitely would come here again and would recommend it to everyone!“

“We’ve lived next door for a while now and I’m not sure why it took us so long to try out the food from here.

Ordered fried fish báhn mi and grilled chicken noodle bowl for takeout.

Both items were phenomenal.

I’m not much of a sandwich person, and other báhn mi’s I’ve tried have not been standouts. But this one is. The bread to filling ratio is perfect, and the bread they use is just really good bread. Flavourful, generous, filling and delicious, I think I may love báhn mi’s now.

The grilled chicken noodle bowl was so refreshing! It served genuine flavours and really fresh vegetables.

Generous portions, fresh ingredients, authentic flavours, I’m excited to eat my way through their menu.

So glad to find another neighbourhood gem.“

“A friend suggested this place to us while we were eating at another Vietnamese restaurant. Came for lunch. Ordered a few things to try. Spring rolls, beef satay, spicy chicken wings, a bahn mi, and a pho. The food was not bad, however, there we things that made me lean towards not enjoying the meal.
The spring rolls were ok. They did fall apart easily, and the peanut sauce bordered on almost being peanut butter as it was so thick.
The beef satay was good in itself, but came with more of the thick peanut sauce and not a satay sauce.
The spicy chicken wings were overly salty, as i found myself eating them along with the lettuce spread underneath them to calm the saltiness down.
The bahn mi... I was really let down. The bread was similar to a large hot dog bun. Not crispy. Not fluffy. But more like a processed bun. It ruined the whole thing. And its a shame because the insides tasted really good.
The pho. The broth was the overall winner. My husband would come back just to order the broth. But he mentioned the meatball was more like an Italian meatball and not at all like the bouncy asian style of beef balls he was used to.
The service was very polite and quick. But the food was an overall miss.“

“Came here for the first time and had a delightful experience. The service was quick, the staff were attentive and the food was fantastic! The wings were crispy and flavorful, the entrees had just the right amount of spice, and the coffee and matcha milk cake are worth going for by themselves. Highly recommend, I will definitely be back!“

“I came about this restaurant driving on the 440 in Jersey City and looking for something to eat and Walla I found my to go place, whenever I want to eat Vietnamese food this is my place to go! Love the Food, the workers very friendly and the atmosphere. I have been there numerous of time and will continue to go there. I love their Mi Hoanh Thanh, Pho Tom, Pad Kee Mao with Beef,Bun Tom Nuong Cha Gio, Goi Cuon and of course their Delicious Mango smoothie to die for!!!!!! lol.“

“my favorite item is their fried rice- it is five stars! i’ve only ordered the veggie pho which is good but obviously won’t be as good as the original. their banh mi is also pretty good. their service is always friendly and their owner is super nice!“

“The Corner Pho has delicious food and the service is great ! The owner Quang is so gracious !!“

“Always delicious and very knowledgeable about allergens if you ask“

“Had a group dinner for a friend's birthday and absolutely LOVED the place! The ambiance was so cool and I could have stayed there all nice. Friendly attentive service. Great neighborhood spot!“

“My god! the bartender, the one who the grey hair is definitely a 90/80!!!His specialty Lechee Martini was to die for!! way better than the tattoo guy! But the service from all was spectacular! please come by and give this place a shot! Great pork chop!! Will return!“

“Obao is one of my favorite restaurants in NYC! I have never been disappointed here. Best atmosphere, staff, food, and drinks all for a reasonable price. Highly, highly recommend!!! Especially the calamari 😋“

“i’ve been here 3 times so far and not once was i disappointed. always consistent quality and friendly service.
i’ve been ordering the pate&bone, morning glory, and sugar cane shrimp for starters. pho ha noi is one of the best pho in the city imo, i’m sure i’ll try other things on the menu eventually 😂
i appreciate their right amount of seasoning, everything tastes balanced and flavorful.
will be going back for sure.“

“The Best Pho in NYC, the broth is delicious & Service fast and friendly. It been my 3rd time here. I was not disappointed. I recommend all my friends.“

“My banh mi was high quality and well priced, I would definitely return here in the future.

Roast pork was a little inconvenient take out style though, would prefer a larger bowl with everything mixed rather than meat, rice, and vegetables separate“

“Check them out!! Very good pricing.“

“Amazing food - highly recommended!“

“I've had Bahn Mi's all over NYC but this place is the most flavorful. They pack the sandwich with well marinated veggies, the meats are always tender and bread is nice and crusty. The prices are reasonable too at $11. I wish they offered appetizers too like fried spring rolls.“

“WonderPho is wonderful!! We found this restaurant on our recent visit to NYC and it has to be one of the best Pho restaurants we've been to in the country. The portion sizes are excellent, the service is outstanding, and the flavors are rich and delicious! The entire crew was so kind and welcoming, especially Jeff who take such good care of us tableside! We will definitely be back anytime we are in NY!!“

“Saigon Social is an amazing Vietnamese restaurant in the LES of Manhattan. Owned and operated by Helen Nguyen who uses her wonderful restaurant to prepare food for those in need for various organizations in NYC. She is a wonderful person and an amazing chef using her classical training to prepare amazingly authentic and forward thinking Vietnamese dishes. It’s a must visit!!!!“

“Obao is one of my favorite restaurants in NYC! I have never been disappointed here. Best atmosphere, staff, food, and drinks all for a reasonable price. Highly, highly recommend!!! Especially the calamari 😋“

“We were running late for our reservation, but the staff still welcomed us warmly and got us seated right away. The service was fast, friendly, and attentive throughout our meal.

We ordered quite a few dishes, and everything was delicious. The flavors were authentic and reminded us of the food back home in Vietnam. The portions and prices felt very reasonable for New York.

One of our favorite parts was the outdoor seating. Sitting on the sidewalk in small plastic chairs felt just like being back in Vietnam, enjoying street food on a busy afternoon. It created such a fun and nostalgic atmosphere.

If you're looking for authentic Vietnamese food, great service, and a unique dining experience in NYC, Mắm is definitely worth a visit. We'll be back the next time we're in New York!“

“what an outstanding Vietnamese restaurant and hidden gem I found near my hostel while touring New York Central Park area. I ordered the fish noodles with extra bread donut and the bowl portion was huge I felt so full from it. They have my go to classic Vietnamese dishes like Pho, beef vermicelli noodle combo, Com Tam as well as Banh Mi. There are also some exotic small dishes I have never seen before so very original. The friendly reception and staff were excellent and the atmosphere was special with almost a full house for dinner. I will be going back for dinner tonight.“

“Tasty & Tasty & Tasty & Tasty Beer“

“A great place to eat I love their pho chicken sandwiches but best of all their curry chicken soup is really good as well.My son introduced me to this place and it's been a favorite of mine ever since. 😋 👌 😊“

“The betel rolls and the pork apps were so good! The pho is delicious as well. I enjoyed my drink but wish there was more chilli salt.

Best of all, is how sweet and smiley the waitresses are. I know how hard the service industry can be, and smiling your way through it can be a whole ‘nother task. Thank you for providing us excellent service with a smile 🩵“

“The pork belly banh mi is the best banh mi I’ve ever eaten ngl. 9.8/10 it j wasnt cut all the way and the veggies ended up being all on one side 😭 the fried spring rolls were delicious too, highly recommend getting those two items. The ribeye banh mi was okay and the original one too. The coconut cream viet coffee is nothing too special and the summer rolls were very refreshing and great to snack on with the peanut sauce. But I will definitely be ordering the pork belly banh mi again.“

“The BEST sandwich in NYC. Thank you for bringing fresh and homemade foods to Brooklyn.“

“my favorite vietnamese restaurant in the area—this place has gotten me through for YEARS. pho broth is so flavorful and the staff are really kind. recently brought a friend here who has a lot of allergies and they double checked with the kitchen and gave specific recommendations, honestly the most accommodating restaurant ive been to.“

“I'm somewhat of a Pho and Vietnamese food fanatic. Having lived in Brooklyn nearly all my life, I've been to nearly ALL Vietnamese restaurants (86th st, Ave U, etc) but having moved I haven't tested this place out.

All I say WOW! I knew the food was going to be good as soon as I walked in and smelled the aroma. I got it to go and 30min later it was still nice and HOT.

The Pho is AMAZING, the portion is HUGE (I couldn't finish it) but ain't letting it go to waste (on a walkabout digesting my food now haha)

I can't wait to try some of their other dishes but I would HIGHLY recommend this place for the Pho. Thank you for making my day better :)

PS their to go packing is really good, didn't have to transfer the pho to another large bowl as it already comes in one!“

“JoJu puts a modern spin on the Vietnamese sandwich, and I’ve enjoyed it several times now. One thing that stands out is their finely shredded đồ chua instead of the more traditional hand-sliced pickled carrots and daikon. It gives the sandwich a different texture and a milder flavor, which may actually be more approachable for people who find stronger pickled flavors off-putting.

I also appreciate their choice of bread. It still has a good bite, but it’s not overly sharp or tough the way some banh mi bread can be, which makes the sandwich much more enjoyable to eat.

The proteins are very well seasoned and marinated. You can really taste the lemongrass and BBQ notes, and overall, it’s a great product. I’m leaving 4 stars only because I added lemongrass chicken to the BBQ pork banh mi, and the extra protein portion felt a bit light considering the added charge. I understand it’s a small business and costs are always a factor, but as a customer, I’d probably skip the add-on next time unless the portion is a little more generous.“

“I honestly can’t remember how many times I’ve been back to this place, but that probably says enough on its own. The food here is genuinely excellent, especially the chicken pho. The chicken is tender, juicy, and full of flavor, and I really like how a squeeze of lime lifts the broth and makes it taste even brighter and fresher. The portions are generous, the service is consistently good, and the restaurant is always clean, well-kept, and nicely decorated. I often come here for lunch with my coworkers, and it has become one of those reliable spots we keep returning to. If there’s one downside, it’s that the restaurant only opens from lunchtime onward, so sadly it’s not an option when I’m craving a good bowl of pho in the morning.“

“love this place, 2nd time ordering. first time was delivery and this time I picked up. the pho is so delicious and includes sauce and toppings. banh mi and spring rolls are also other favorites that i’ve had twice. will definitely come back!“

“Nice and warm. The food was Delicious!!n definitely will be back!“

“So happy I stumbled upon this restaurant - spent 2 weeks in Vietnam over Christmas and this brought me right back! Pho is just as amazing as in Vietnam - have tried a couple of places since back but this is just the best❤️
Very reasonable- super nice staff - very busy take-out but so nice to eat there too ! My new go to place when in the area and I will walk out of my way to get there !“

“Fantastic Food with both traditional and original Vietnamese dishes!!! Cash only but worth the visit every time!“

“The Best Pho in NYC, the broth is delicious & Service fast and friendly. It been my 3rd time here. I was not disappointed. I recommend all my friends.“

“Great foods especially pho; highly recommended!“

“Very friendly, welcoming, low key restaurant with GREAT prices and equally GREAT food! If i lived in East Village this would be my go-to. They do not use soy sauce and many peanuts for those with allergies. Compared to other vietnamese places they are very accommodating to many diets, but at baseline their menu is safe. Amazing prices.“

“This is a food cart, but I’m still trying to find a better banh mi in the city! Recently tried some highly rated downtown options and let me tell you it was nothing compared to this cart! Also: very nice owner, great prices and freshness of ingredients.“

“Friendly service, clean shop... delicious sandwich“

“The food is so gooddd. I have the spicy pork bar buns and the Lemongrass Chicken Bahn MI sandwich. Can you say Delicioussss.love love love. I live in East New York BK and came all the way for thisssss. Never been here before this was my 1st time and I'm going back...#littlemo'sisgood“

“Excellent food and a wide variety of options. Have enjoyed everything we’ve ordered.“

“This place exceeded my expectations in every way. The menu offered many delicious options, and each dish was full of flavor and carefully prepared. The service was professional and quick, and the staff maintained a positive attitude throughout our visit. A wonderful restaurant for both casual dining and special occasions.“

“great Vietnamese sandwich and a lot of variety.“

“Món nào cũng ngon , sẽ quay lại tiệm .“

“Delicious Banh Mi and refreshing drinks. Learned today that they make the bread in-house; literally mind blowing 🤯. The bread was crisp and crunchy, pork was perfectly marinated, and the veggies were fresh. The price was very economical considering the value.“

“Their grilled pork bahn mi (extra meat, extra mayo) is still the best banh mi I’ve had in the city after 5+ years here. Doesn’t hurt too that the staff is so kind and the prices are great! Really a takeout/delivery spot - there’s not a lot of seating. You won’t be disappointed!“

“We are local Viet here. I think we found our new Viet restaurant we can frequent. We dined here twice already over the last two weeks. Foods are surprisingly fresh and authentically good in taste. Dishes are generous in portion. Give them five stars to hope they would stay afloat for us to have a good viet restaurant near by.“

“Pho has great flavor and there are a lot of boba options to choose from. One small recommendation could be to allow people to customize the sweetness of the boba.

Knocking off a star because this place is quite slow. It consistently takes 20-30 mins for pho to come out even when the store is empty. The employees look like they’re working hard the whole time, so I think management probably should try to figure out a way to speed things up operationally.

Also the “contact us” link on their website is broken (which is why I’m writing this review instead of emailing them).“
