“Definitely the best Pho joint in Philly. This is one of the Pho 75 mini-chain restaurants starting in DC & Northern VA area (7 corners). Solid broth, chewy noodles and loads of different cut of meats. Add-on prices are also reasonable ($2.5 for meatballs as an example). Service is just meh... but you don't come here for service....“

“My first time having their food which came highly recommended from a picky foodie, like myself! We did takeout which was fast and the young lady was extremely nice. The vegetable rice, sweet chili wings and shrimp rolls were delectable! Not one complaint! I will definitely be back!“

“Been coming here with my wife for over 10 years now. My first introduction to Bun Bo Hue (Hue style beef noodle soup) and, even having been to Hue, in Vietnam itself...this is still one of THE best bowls of Bun Bo Hue I have ever had. It is flavorful, spicy, full of herbs and meat and spices. The Vietnamese style coffee (Cafe Sua) is great too, an amazing morning option in my opinion.
I don't believe they serve much else, but considering how good the Bun Bo Hue here is, they don't need too. The place is small, there are only a few tables, so my advice is to get here early, you will be thankful you did!“

“Came here with a friend for lunch and the food was both VERY reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. I got a mango-jackfruit smoothie and tried some of my friend's lemongrass tofu - both were fantastic. Will absolutely come back if I'm in Philly again!“

“It’s a cute cafe. Banh Mi is good . Love how they use seeded bread. I like the blended espresso and my daughter likes the cookies & cream.😋 The catering food was delicious . My guests liked the shrimp tapioca wrapped in banana leaves. Spring rolls was very stuffed with lots of meat . Highly recommend this place!“

“Corey’s is the best Vietnamese food we’ve ever had outside of Vietnam. And, Corey is quite possibly the nicest guy on earth. The food is phenomal, the service great, and you can feel great about supporting a family owned local business!“

“Cuối tuần lại ghé Vietnam Restaurant & Café, gọi một tô phở bò tái nóng hổi kèm ly cà phê sữa đá thơm lừng. Ăn xong uống thêm ngụm cà phê là thấy tỉnh táo, cả ngày thoải mái hẳn. Quán ấm cúng, đồ ăn thì chuẩn vị quê nhà“

“Went here for a date night before the ballet. The food was excellent: our waitress Hannah suggested the scallop appetizer (with bread to soak up the sauce afterwards!) and the tiger prawn entree, so we got those and the shrimp pancake cups. She was right! Those meals were fantastic. Eating here was a real treat. Great food, great drinks, great service. We'll be back. Thanks Hannah!“

“The food here is amazing. My fiancée considers this the best Bun Bo Huey she has ever had. After discovering it in the way to DC we made sure to stop by on our way back to Connecticut and get Lunch as well as some to go. We plan to visit again in a few weeks when we make our move to DC.“

“My favorite Vietnamese restaurant currently because there are so many good options here. Bún bò is a must try. It smells really good and the broth is very well-seasoned. The taste is very different from the bbh at other places. Another must try is bún mắm. Although they only have cabbage and lettuce and not the typical veggie that comes with bún mắm, it is still very good. You get roasted pork, fish, shrimp, and squid. Mì vịt tiềm and hủ tiếu khô are also delicious. The meat in bún chả is tender and well seasoned, but the noodle is not that good, a bit overcooked. Also the bowl is really small so it is hard to eat. Although it is called phở cyclo, but phở here is meh. The wait time can sometimes be long and it's a pretty small place.“

“Just had the best banh mi sandwich of my life! Bread was warm and flaky, filling was spicy but not overwhelming, everything was fresh, and it came out in the time it took me to go wash my hands—all for under $6! I stumbled on this place with no expectations, but cannot WAIT to eat here again.“

“First time here (2/22/25) and it was great. I had beef Pho and my wife had shrimp and chicken fried rice. Both were fantastic. Her fried rice was one of the best I’ve had in a really long time. I’ll def be back for that. The pho broth was great. The only thing different here than other places I’ve had Pho was that they didn’t give me mint with the jalapeño and bean sprouts. The service was a little slow as they were pretty busy but the owner was very apologetic. Almost too much but it was greatly appreciated because normally you don’t get that type of treatment. Even though the food came out slow he was top notch with keeping my water filled which is my primary must when it comes to restaurant service. And although it was just him working the front of the house he was serving everybody so attentively. And I think his wife was the only person in the back of the house. They did a wonderful job. Also that gave s a small salad that was quite tasty. I don’t know what kind of dressing it was but it was pretty darn good. Oh and we had the veggie spring rolls and chicken kabobs, both also good.“

“This spot absolutely rules. They have the best tofu bahn mi in South Philly (spongy on the inside and crispy on the outside). Authentic as you can get and they’re very kind and quick with service. Tiny inside if you plan to sit in but they do have tables and do take out. Highly recommend!“

“seems like a family owned restaurant! I’ve never had chicken pho before so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the broth was fairly similar to beef pho but cleaner. Their pho bowls are one size only, but it is very large. We got two bowls of plain pho with 1/2 chicken the first time we went, and our total was about $40-$50. 1/2 chicken was definitely a lot for two people, so we ended up getting 1/4 chicken today (total of $27) and it was the perfect portion. They serve cold tea, which was very nice and refreshing. Parking is difficult to find on weekends, but the lot is generally empty on weekdays.“

“I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant for dining any day of the week, with frequent visits of up to three times a week. The staff's exceptional hospitality, kindness and assistance keeps me coming back. They are truly kind individuals. Dzung, Tam and Jonathan are the best.“

“This food is some of the best food in Philly. Arguably the best and most authentic Vietnamese food in the whole city. My boyfriend and I have been eating here for years, and the food is consistent in always being delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. The menu is small, focused, and the drinks are always amazing and pair well with the food.
The owner and chefs are always so friendly, welcoming, and take pride in their food.
We can tell that they season and grill all of their food fresh.
Seriously- this place is the top Banh Mi in the city.“

“I love the food here. But i went there tonight around 730 and it was frigid outside. Just as we were sitting down to eat our food the worker decided to open the doors to carry all the outdoor furniture in then kept them open while he changed trash outside too. Not a care in the world for how freezing it was for his customers. It was extremely disappointing. We drive like 25 minutes to eat here. May be a while before we do that again.“

“Nam Phuong is definitely a go too for traditional Vietnamese comfort food and many choices to pick from with their extensive menu. We opted for the family dinner of 4. This is the best options that includes appetizers, various options of fish, beef, soup and dessert. The clay pot fish and lotus salad is so good. Service is quick and friendly. They have so many waiters ready to refill your water and take away empty plate. They keep an eye on your rice too in case you need more. Only complaint is the restroom. It needs to be clean daily and ensure no foul smell. Warning, you will lose your appetite if you use the restroom then return to the tables. Overall good dining options around Washington Ave. Food is ok and nothing fancy. Price is fair.“

“This is a great Vietnamese restaurant in Philly. I would recommend chicken knuckles to try. They have a large menu and most of it good. The drinks selection is also big to try from along with non alcoholic drinks. This is one place I saw sugarcane juice in Philly.“

“I’ve walked by this spot so many times, and it seemed every time I was hungry they were closed (closed on weekends) but today I finally stepped in. I ordered 2 bánh mìs and a Vietnamese coffee. Pete, the owner/operator of the spot was the only one there and we instantly jumped into great conversation about the music scene in Philly back in the late 90s. We ended up knowing a lot of the same people. Philly is a tight knit group. So even before eating the food I was already a fan of this spot. Pete served me his special take on Vietnamese coffee while we talked and he made the sandwiches. The iced coffee was excellent, but different and less sweet than Vietnamese coffee I’ve had in the past. He also used ice cubes made of coffee which was an added bonus for a coffee junkie like myself. After we talked for nearly 20 min, I walked home with my sandwich and WOW! Such a solid bánh mì! I told him to make it like he would make it for himself (spicy) and he knocked it out of the park. I’ll be back and I’ll be bringing all my music friends here when they are in the neighborhood. I highly encourage Olde City residents as well as Philly locals to give this place a try!“

“I’ve been to Pho Cali many times now and every experience has been nothing but exceptional. The food is absolutely amazing and the atmosphere is quiet and comfortable. I even order it through delivery and still receive the same piping hot tasty quality you would expect with a dine in experience. Pho Cali is a MUST try if you’re in the area- gotta love small businesses 💗“

“I recently visited this cozy little cafe and had the most incredible pho and beef chow fun. Being from Asia, I really appreciate the chef's dedication to his Craft. The Pho broth was super rich and flavorful, simmered for hours with fresh ingredients. I'd definitely skip adding the different sauces on the table to the broth so you can appreciate its flavor. And the beef chow fun? So good! The chef nailed that smoky wok flavor. This cafe is a gem that really showcases authentic Asian food. I can't wait to go back !“

“Very authentic Vietnamese food in an Asian plaza. The food was great!! Had the pho, short rib and pork chop!! All were cocked perfectly to my liking. Got the little ones a spring roll they really enjoyed it. The broth in the pho was very tasty also, we will be back next time we are in Philly .“
“My bf is from vietnam and when he misses good home food, we come here!! We’ve tried a good amount of dishes but the ones we recommend are: Banh Canh soup noodle, Mi Quang, Banh Tam Bi, and the Banh Mi with Cha siu. All are very solid choices. The food is authentic, and prices are reasonable. Also the owner is super friendly we love it here.TDLR: It feels like your Asian mom or dad made you a delicious home cooked meal. Would recommend.“

“Review is based on the pho woth meatball + eye round.
Meatball and eye round tasted great together 2/3.
The broth was thin and had almost no flavor however. Some people may prefer less flavor, but I prefer more 1/3.“

“Decent Vietnamese food in Philly city center. I really like the taste of their congee, I think it is because of the ginger. However, I don't really like the dồi. Bún thịt nướng is okay and portion is huge. This bánh bèo is probably the best I have had, but homemade is still better. It took them forever to bring this out tho and no communication about how long this would take was mads.“
“We always come for the hoagie and coffee, grab and go. Don't be fooled by the lackluster neighborhood and surrounding area, Vinh Long Cafe is an amazing Vietnamese cafe and restaurant that is surely overlooked and underrated. It is a secret gem in South Philly. The Vietnamese iced coffee is made perfectly and the Vietnamese hoagie is unbelievably fresh and authentic. One reason it doesn't get the visits and accolades it deserves is probably due to its environment. Often the cafe seems to be filled with only local friends or family just hanging out. Sometimes the place is completely empty and they play traditional news or music. It doesn't seem too welcoming to those who don't speak the language, but don't be intimidated as this is just the traditional ways of the people there. Just walk up to the owner - who is always at counter - and ask for a Vietnamese hoagie and coffee. They make the hoagie on order right there in front of you. It's fresh and as authentic as it gets. Eat there or take it to go. It's worth the try.“

“So I Typically order the tofu hoagie from Tais which is amazing and I've gotten many friends hooked on it, but I thought that I should try their tofu veggie pho and see how I like it.First of all, it was arguably the best noodle soup I have ever had. Full of tofu, cabbage, bell pepper, onion, and broccoli, as well as the add on sauces, lemon, and Thai basil, it was super filling and made me wish I had more.The broth is light but flavorful and the Thai basil had a bit of an anise and minty flavor go it, but when I added the tomato sauce/base to the soup, the Thai basil became spicy almost.So this dish is one that will fill you up and repeatedly change flavors10/10 recommend“

“Have eaten for Bo Ne a great deal. Love the food and have lived in Vietnam and food is very much on par with the actual Vietnamese Restaurants in Ho Cho Minh City and Hanoi. Can not say anything bad for the place. Have frequented since first opened and the original owners.“
