High Lúa in Williamsburg continues to offer solid Vietnamese cuisine, with standout dishes such as fried spring rolls, Bun Bo Hue, and fresh Banh Mi. The pho remains a highlight, featuring a homemade broth that is slightly sweet but complex, though some find the portion of noodles smaller than at other restaurants. Customers recommend adding chili oil for an extra kick. The noodles can be thicker than expected, and some reviews note that the chicken pho could use more chicken, while the special beef pho was served a bit cold. The Viet iced coffee is quite sweet, and while some reviews mention a coconut latte that is too bitter and sugary, the iced coffee has received positive remarks. Service is friendly and attentive, even during outdoor dining. The cozy interior can get crowded, with a communal table and bar area that takes up space. Overall, High Lúa brings authentic Vietnamese flavors to the city and is worth a return visit for their delicious food and welcoming atmosphere, especially with vegan options like tofu that are highly praised. The chicken wings are crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the pork belly in the bun cha is noted as very good, even if the noodles felt a little stale.
