“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!“

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

“Nice place, good food, great service!“

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

“This place is cozy and makes for a nice place to go out with friends, dates or even alone! I went in by myself and tried their banh mi, which despite not being like what you would find in a typical Vietnamese spot, was super tasty and I highly recommend it. Use my photo as evidence of how good it is, I ate half of it before I finally took a photo, haha. The bread itself was soft, it tasted fresh, and the filling wasn't overly spicy or bland, it was just right. The baked goods looked tempting and I might have to try them next time.

Service wise, they're great. The staff will let you know how long you'll wait for items and they are good at what they do, both in the front facing customers and in the back prepping.“

“Su was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made our whole experience feel special. Her service was excellent, she was always one step ahead of what we needed, and her warm personality really stood out. We had a fantastic experience thanks to Su and would definitely come back again!“

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

“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“

“I’ve been eating at this restaurant for over a year now, and honestly, I absolutely love it! I’ve never been disappointed.
The service is always super fast, and I’ve always had a great experience with their customer service. The lady who answers the phone whenever I call to place an order is always so nice and attentive. She always gets my order right, and I’ve never had any issues with her or with picking up my food.
And their sandwiches NEVER disappoint! My favorites are the Spicy Grilled Chicken and the spicy sardine sandwich. They’re honestly so good!
I’m genuinely grateful to have this place so close to where I live. Whenever I want something good, quick, and satisfying, this is one of the first places I think of, whether it’s for lunch or dinner.
After more than a year of coming here, I’m still a happy customer. Definitely recommend! ❤“

“I takeout ordered the Bun Cha Gio Thit Nuong and it was absolutely fantastic! The sliced grilled pork was some of the I’ve had on this dish, the noodles were excellent and overall there were flavors I haven’t experienced at other Vietnamese restaurants in Brooklyn. Looking forward to coming back and dining in person soon!“

“Really recommend this Vietnamese restaurant :)“

“I had the bulgogi banh mi and it was delicious. Crusty bread, nicely seasoned beef, and fresh, crispy vegetables. The Thai iced tea wasn’t made with the sugary syrup you find in most places - it was sooo good. Unfortunately I don’t live in the area but if I find myself there again I’ll definitely visit.“

“Hi,

I previous left a comment about the ribeye in my ribeye pho being raw. I apologize for that comment as I had not realized at the time that is how it would typically be served. I felt my review needed to be updated after learning that info. My pho was delicious! Just a good refreshing noodle soup. Will be trying their other items soon“

“SUPER cute spot. I love the semi-underground vibes. Wood decor. So so cute.
The food was good! Not like outstanding but super solid. Exactly what you expect from Vietnamese.

The calamari was good!
The bun spring roll bowl was good.
The pho was good.
Nothing blew my mind but all solid.“

“I just ordered a smoked Brisket Pho, the Brisket was well cooked, the Broth was savory. Highly recommend!!!!!“

“Absolutely loved this place! My sister and I ordered the shrimp pho and beef pho. The food was so good that we forgot to take pictures until we were almost done eating. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles were fresh, and everything tasted amazing. The shrimp pho was my favorite, and it paired perfectly with the jasmine iced tea. Great service, cozy atmosphere, and definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to.“

“Pho was great. People are friendly. Priced very well. Saw another person enjoying the rice dish and told me how savory the meat was and was a great mix with the salad and rice. Will try next time with the sandwich. Interior is minimalist but the food well makes up for it.“

“This was the most delicious bowl of Bun rice vermicelli salad I've ever had. Perfect balance of noodles, herbs (mint AND basil, not or!), sprouts, cukes, and delicious pan seared beef. All in abundance, topped with a generous helping of crispy fried shallots. Highly recommend.“

“Excellent banh mi, I’m surprised because I’m usually not so impressed with NYC vietnamese cuisine!!! Really kind staff. Thank you!!!

Sorry for the bad photo it smelled so good I started eating without thinking“

“If you looking for authentic Vietnamese food, you will not be disappointed.
Bahn mi is so good and fresh, the fried spring roll is delicious (small order is not enough), and Ban Xel is my go to dish. Iced Vietnamese coffee is sweet and strong.“

“It’s a no frills venue but the food is authentic, great quality and really tasty. Also pretty cheap. I’m actually annoyed I’ve lived in the area for 2 years already and no eaten here before. I’m officially a regular now. It’s definitely a takeaway kind of place, but it’s right by the park you can’t go wrong.“

“I just ordered a smoked Brisket Pho, the Brisket was well cooked, the Broth was savory. Highly recommend!!!!!“

“I was around the area and hungry and came across this place. I ordered the classic sandwich and it was amazing. Bread was crispy and flaky and packed with the right amount of fillings. The watermelon juice was sooooo refreshing and delicious. I could not stop drinking it. Would honestly come back for the watermelon juice alone haha“

“Bubble tea and their pastries are amazing! I had the matcha cheesecake and it was delicious! Love the staff over there!“

“I just ordered a smoked Brisket Pho, the Brisket was well cooked, the Broth was savory. Highly recommend!!!!!“

“This is the place I always want to go when I’m in Park Slope. The vegetarian pho is beautiful, the ambiance is warm and cozy, and it’s the perfect spot for lunch with a friend. The doors, the natural light, and the breeze make the whole space feel so inviting. I first went many years ago, and it continues to be consistently wonderful.“

“Delicious Vietnamese food! Every dish we ordered was full of flavor, especially the broth—it was incredibly tasty and comforting. Everything tasted fresh and was very appetizing. The restaurant was also very clean, which made the dining experience even better. Great food, a clean atmosphere, and friendly service. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Small shop, priced well. Got the classic banhmi and a Vietnamese iced coffee. $15 before tip. The last banhmi & ca phê sữa đá I ate was in Ha Noi so I tempered my expectations but was pleasantly surprised. They seem to have made a very good effort with the resources available. The ground pork on the sandwich was heavier/greasier than what you’d expect but the essence and core flavors are captured quite well. The iced coffee misses the trademark bitterness of real Vietnamese coffee but again is quite close for the other side of the planet. I will be eating here again.“

“This has been favorite Vietnamese spot in NYC for years and I’ve tried quite a few. The flavors, service, vibe are all always spot on. I appreciate that each dish speaks for itself in demonstrating how the staff knows what they’re doing. From vermicelli bowls to banh mi sandwiches and anything else you would like, you’re bound to enjoy the dining experience.“

“Absolutely delicious Pho Ga & buttered clams. Great staff who was attentive & hospitable, knew the menu, & offered fantastic recommendations. One of the best pho meals I’ve had & best service. Highly recommend. I & my 7 year old daughter we’re there & we both absolutely loved it.“

“Been going here for years it’s a no frills vietnamese restaurant that serves solid food. I never really had a bad meal here but it’s always been to go. Restaurant is your hole in the wall spot, staff is always friendly and ordering takeout out is always fast. Their chicken curry bread is delicious, beef cubed over rice and grilled chicken with rice are my go to.“

“Staple local Viet spot that is 24 hours. No frills on the rest of the menu but their pho soup base is comparable to some of the Chinatown viet restaurants. Fittingly for Williamsburg, a bowl can run you $17-22....steeper than what I'm used to but the portion is very generous. See my hand for size next to the standard bowl size.“

“Stumbled upon this cozy and delightful resto. Got one of the lunch specials - a Banh Mi roasted pork sandwich and mint tea. Perfect on a blustery fall day. Every yummy sandwich starts with good bread and theirs is freshly baked and slightly crusty and holds up to the meat and veggies in between. They don’t hold back either. My sandwich had a generous amount of savory and flavorful roasted pork along with the julienne carrots and other veggies. And service was kind and efficient. Could smell the deliciousness of my sandwich on my R train back to manhattan. I really enjoyed this sandwich and will definitely stop in again.“

“Delicious food... beautiful hip, relaxed atmosphere!!“

“Honestly, what is not to like. They are consistent! The pho is like a B, but their spicy banhmis are so good! they are always reliable in terms of delivery and I can’t say enough about bad days turning around because they’ve been reliable.“

“The chicken lemongrass php was delish. I could smell the aroma of the lemongrass which was tantalizing!!!“

“The food was really good, especially the banhmi it was fresh, flavorful, and filling. Everything came out quickly, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. Great food and great service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Pho Vietnam — Avenue U, Brooklyn

In the lively stretch of Avenue U in South Brooklyn, where bakeries, noodle shops, and dim sum parlors compete for attention, Pho Vietnam quietly holds its own as a neighborhood favorite for Vietnamese comfort food. It’s not flashy, and that’s part of its charm. The dining room is simple and relaxed—exactly the kind of place where locals drop in for a warm bowl of pho on a cold Brooklyn evening.

The menu leans classic: steaming bowls of pho with fragrant broth, crisp spring rolls, and the familiar staples of Vietnamese street-style cooking. The pho itself is dependable and deeply comforting—clear broth layered with star anise, beef, and herbs, served with a generous plate of basil, lime, and bean sprouts.

But the real standout here isn’t only the pho.
It’s the Vietnamese pork chop over rice.

The plate arrives with a beautifully grilled pork chop—caramelized at the edges, smoky from the grill, and resting over a bed of fluffy jasmine rice with fresh vegetables on the side. The meat is juicy and savory, but what elevates the dish is the house fish sauce dressing. Instead of the usual small dipping cup, the restaurant places the sauce in a bottle right on the table, letting diners pour as much as they want.

And once you start pouring, it’s hard to stop.
The sweet-savory sauce soaks into the rice, brightened with garlic and a hint of acidity, turning every bite into something addictive. It’s one of those small but thoughtful touches that makes the meal feel generous and personal—exactly the type of detail that keeps neighborhood regulars coming back.

Service is friendly and unfussy, and the pace is quick enough for a casual lunch or weeknight dinner. While Avenue U has no shortage of dining options, Pho Vietnam stands out for its honest cooking and comforting flavors.
Come for the pho, stay for the pork chop rice—and don’t hold back on that sauce.“

“My wife and I have been coming here pretty much every Friday for years now, and it’s easily one of our favorite lunch spots in the city.

The banh mi never disappoints. I always get the roast pork and my wife always gets the roast chicken. We’ve tried other things over the years, but we always end up coming back to those because they’re just so good. The bread is always fresh, the fillings are generous, and everything is made to order.

The summer rolls are also unreal. We order them almost every time, and the peanut sauce they come with is so good I could probably eat it with a spoon.

Then there’s the boba. I always get the lychee, my wife gets the Thai tea, and it’s become part of our Friday routine.

There are a lot of places to get a banh mi in NYC, but this is our spot. If you’re anywhere nearby, do yourself a favor and grab a sandwich.“

“Perfectly plated goodness. My mind and body felt elevated instantly. the environment was so alive and oddly I matched the pink ambient lighting perfectly.“

“My lady recovering from a cold and was craving some soup. Wanted to get something a little different than chicken noodle... explore a little we like to spice things up. Pho for her and a classic sandwich for me. Do you know you what Vietnamese ham is? Neither do I, but it set me right..try it sometime. Great service fast and sat in a nice chair while my order was ready. Great at home date night we watched Gilmore Girls never seen it but its good“

“I was here last week for a food event/car show(?). The line and wait to get inside was not all too bad minus the stray rain showers that came down once in a while. Food was amazing but the venue itself was not well ventilated so I had to catch myself going outside after a short while.“

“I have been here many times over many years since I was a teen for the delicious pho, Vietnamese coffee, seafood rice dishes and most especially…. The Vietnamese spring rolls. Guys please understand and listen to me when I tell you that these are the best Vietnamese spring rolls I have ever had. I think about them all the time. These are not from a box from Costco.

These are fresh, handmade delicious crispy juicy Vietnamese spring rolls. I have tried having at other places and the flavor doesn’t even come CLOSE. I hope this place stays open my whole life so I can always have those delicious spring rolls.

The pho is also my favorite pho I had anywhere. The prices can’t be beat as well :)“

“Stang Thai is one of my top takeout choices. The food is always packed beautifully with zero spills, and it arrives steaming hot. The summer rolls with peanut sauce are the perfect fresh starter, and their noodle dishes have the best texture and seasoning. Plus, they actually pay attention to the spice level modifications you ask for. Highly recommend!“

“The Vietnamese sandwiches at Little Thanh Đa are really good and definitely the highlight of the visit. The bread was fresh, the fillings were flavorful, and everything came together really well. If you’re looking for a tasty Vietnamese sandwich, I would definitely recommend giving this place a try.

That said, don’t come here expecting great customer service. The service was not very welcoming or attentive, and the overall experience could be improved. It feels like the food is the main reason to visit, rather than the service.

Overall, I’d give the food 5 stars, especially the Vietnamese sandwich, but the customer service needs improvement. I would still come back for the food, but I hope the service gets better in the future.“

“Had the Bahmi with the Brisket and it was very flavorful. Ordered when we got there and dodnt wait long and had a great conversation with the staff. #chipotlejacketsforeveryone #equalrights ���“

“hands down best Vietnamese I ever ate. I would eat it every day.“

“Go to chinese food spot. Hands down probably best chinese food in brooklyn. Food is always on point and vegetables are always fresh and crunchy. Fried rice is actually fried rice and not yellow. Lo mein is always very flavorful and garlicky. One time my grub hub carrier never showed to pick up my order and they called and had their own delivery guy deliver it after they were already closing. When the food arrived our food was kept piping hot and was still incredible. Extremely well priced and overall great customer service. Never been disappointed.“

“The bubble tea is great no complaints for the flavor! I personally hated the Taro bubble tea (tasted like a candle) but it was my first time tasting it, and my friend who I had it with told me that there was another bubble tea place in Manhattan that also had Taro bubble tea but it tasted completely different and way better. Other than that, bubble tea is delicious! I go here all the time with my friends and we all love it! Definitely recommend the mango, or passion fruit, or lychee, or even peppermint with milk for winter! Each of these you can have tapioca pearls or substitute it with different things like lychee or mango. I've never tasted any of their actual food except for the spring rolls which were good. The atmosphere is great, somewhat cozy and calm. The service is good because it goes really quickly and smoothly apart from one time I ordered boba and I expected them to know that I wanted tapioca pearls because who gets just the actual drink without the pearls? So they gave me it without the pearls but the cashier was very helpful and gave me my order without me paying extra! Overall great place definitely recommend just don't get the taro!!! :)“
