Vietnamese Restaurants near Long Island City

“Yummy yummy Good service Nice place“

“I came here for a bite with one of my friends after a morning workout class and it wasn't a bad spot! Located just on the outskirts of central LIC, it's a bit out of the way, but not hard to get to. They have some bar/window seating, but no tables. It's much more of a casual pick-up spot, if anything. Service was fairly quick.

Their menu contains banh mi, spring rolls, vermicelli bowls, and a variety of drinks (as well as baked goods in their displays). I got their grilled chicken and pork banh mi and my friend got their pork banh mi. Overall, it was better than I thought and not bad at all! The bread was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and super warm. They were generous with the portions and gave lots of veggies, which I loved (I wish their pickled carrots and radish were just a bit crunchier though). The marinade for the meats was also well done! I would note that they used American mayo (as opposed to Vietnamese mayo) for the banh mi, which was super noticeable to me. Overall, not a bad spot for Vietnamese banh mi in LIC.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Drinks are extremely unique and delicious. Loved the use of the shrimp paste in their drinks. It adds just the right amount of nuance in a drink. Banh mi was also delicious and it was great that it came with a side of truffle soup. Earth and Nicky were fantastic at the bar. Cant wait to come back with friends soon.“

“Around 6:30 in the evening on weekdays, the store is almost full, business is pretty good, and the store also takes a lot of takeout orders.
The two of us ordered a bowl of mixed beef pho, a fried spring roll and a pork bun, and were very satisfied with everything. The fried spring rolls were very hot when they were freshly fried. They were crispy on the outside and filled with minced pork. They were delicious with the dipping sauce. There are three pork buns in a portion, and the fillings are crispy pork belly, pickled radish and sweet noodle sauce. This combination is unexpectedly harmonious and very satisfying. It is my favorite. The beef rice noodles contain beef tendons, beef slices and beef balls. There is not much meat but a lot of rice noodles. The soup is sweet and has a bit of Chinese medicine. It is just right for two people to share a bowl.“

“Check them out!! Very good pricing.“

“Amazing food - highly recommended!“

“Love the food. Staff pretty friendly. Sometimes I call in ahead to order. Love their popular #1 bbq pork, and I asked for extra spicy which is a good level spicy for high spicy tolerance ppl lol. I think there's no bathroom available. There's sitting area but limited.“

“The sandwiches and appetizers are so good. The meat is not over cooked and just melts in your mouth. Perfect meal for a cold rainy day. I do have to say the pho is not good though. Not very flavorful, we tried the all beef pho and the duck noodle soup which were both a miss.“

“Came in for the Pork Belly Banh Mi and was not disappointed by any means. Bread was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside as it sopped up the juices from the pickled veggies and the sauce. The sauce is mild on the spice with a little tang which complimented both the pickled veggies and pork belly incredibly. Last but certainly not least, the star of the show, the pork belly was sooo tender it basically just melts in your mouth. 10/10 definitely recommend!“

“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!!!!“

“We really enjoyed our experience at Mam! We didn't have reservations but they were able to accommodate us within 10 minutes of our arrival. I know we werr very lucky, but the team seemed incredibly efficient which I am sure was 80% of our luck. ;)

The staff was friendly and helpful in explaining what we were eating and how Vietnamese people typically eat the items. Each dish we had was fabulous in its own way. I particularly enjoyed the eggplant and fried vegetable rolls.

I don't think I have ever had Vietnamese food, but based on my experience at Mam I will plan to sample more.“

“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 😋“

“Chef Papa is an authentic Vietnamese spot and I loved the food here. The beef pho had a rich, flavorful broth, the fried chicken was crispy and juicy, and the spring rolls were fresh and delicious. The beef sandwich was amazing and definitely a highlight. Everything tasted authentic and well made. Highly recommend if you’re craving real Vietnamese food!“

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

“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. 😋 👌 😊“

“Tasty & Tasty & Tasty & Tasty Beer“

“I regret not having captured an image of my meal. The Com Chien Sao Mai dish, which consisted of House Special fried rice with Ginger fried rice, shrimp, chicken, and spam accompanied by a pork chop, was exceptional. I intend to reorder this dish frequently due to its perfection. The culinary expertise displayed was evident, and the meal was prepared with evident care. I highly recommend this establishment, rating it a 10/10.“

“I came to Em Vietnamese Bistro on a whim, craving something warm and comforting on a cold, snowy day, and I am so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt inviting and calm. The space is relaxed and spacious, with beautifully lit lighting that creates a cozy, welcoming vibe. It is the perfect place to enjoy a hot bowl of soup.
I ordered the Bún Bò Huế Đặc Biệt after our server, Mint, shared that it was her personal favorite. When I asked her to help me choose between the spring rolls and wings, she genuinely recommended the spring rolls, and I truly appreciated her honesty. Her warmth and attentiveness made the experience even better.
The food did not disappoint. The broth was incredibly rich and flavorful, with a generous variety of meats that added depth to every bite. The spring rolls were perfectly crispy and, just as promised, absolutely delicious.
Overall, Em Vietnamese Bistro was a wonderful experience, from the ambiance to the service to the food itself. I would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for comforting, high quality Vietnamese food.“

“Pho Table in Bensonhurst is a welcoming Vietnamese restaurant that offers comforting and flavorful dishes in a relaxed neighborhood setting. The space is simple and clean, with a casual atmosphere that makes it a good spot for both quick meals and relaxed dinners with friends or family.

The pho is the highlight of the menu, featuring a clear and aromatic broth that tastes rich without being overly heavy. The noodles are tender, and the toppings like sliced beef, herbs, and bean sprouts add freshness and balance to the bowl. Other Vietnamese favorites such as spring rolls and rice dishes are also well-prepared and satisfying.

Service is usually friendly and efficient, helping create an easy and comfortable dining experience. Overall, Pho Table is a reliable place to enjoy authentic Vietnamese flavors, especially if you’re craving a warm and satisfying bowl of pho in Brooklyn.“

“The food here is soo good. Every now and then I stop buying food outside because food is way too expensive and sometimes it’s just not that good. I was so hungry and walked by and wanted to finally try it after having passed it a few times… No regrets at all!!! The staff there are so patient and chill. I got the lemongrass chicken rice bowl and it was just so good. Decent prices, clean shop with seating, good flavorful food. Dk when I’ll be back but I’m excited to try some other stuff“

“Tried their OG Banh Mi, and WOW.... the baguette was incredible, easily one of the best Banh Mis I've ever had. The coconut cream coffee was also delicious and paired perfectly with the sandwich. Can't wait to go back and try more from the menu.

One tip: instead of waiting in line for hours, I ordered online for pickup. super quick and convenient. That said, I'd love to dine in next time to enjoy the full experience.“

“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!!“

“Nice place, good food, great service!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Such a cute and cozy spot! The food was super yummy, the vibe was chill and comfortable, and the staff were so kind—especially Pim, who made us feel really welcome 💕

I had the crunchy spring rolls and shrimp summer rolls (no pics because I was way too hungry 😅), then the Pho Dặc Biệt, Hanoi-style Banh Mi, and finished with the most perfect Flan Cà Phê.

💥 I dare you to try the Pho—the portion is HUGE and totally worth it! Trust me, you’ll leave full and happy 😊“

“Great foods especially pho; highly recommended!“

“Walked by this place and laughed at all the oddly translated phrases adorning the cart. Fresh cooking, real taste, good mood food. Then I got a Bahn Mi and let me tell you, it tasted fresh, it tasted real, and it put me in a good mood.

Cannot recommend this place enough, its just a delightful place, pretty quick service unless its super busy but its rarely longer than 5 minutes. Nice guys running it, I'd try more of the menu but the special baguette gives me no reason to try anything else. Maybe one day.“

“Pho was amazing.. 10/10..“

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

“Very friendly service,cute little shop with beautiful decorations and art. The house limeade is refreshing and sweet and the Bun bo hue was the best I ever had it was hearty and delicious. Favorite Vietnamese in the area.
2nd visit was just as good this time got the pho supreme its so delicious and warming especially during the winter and flavor is on point. Limeade was less sweet this time but still refreshing.“

“Omg this literally the best pho ever.
I had a LARGE beef brisket pho. The broth is to die for. That is a good thing after a hangover. The shrimp spring rolls are a good appetizer. The chicken and shrimp fried rice was amazing. The chicken noodle soup was the best ever. He had grilled chicken. My boyfriend needed this to revived himself. Chicken soup is good for the soul. The kind that says you matter and makes you feel you're blessed.

As soon as we got in they greet us with smiles and good tea. That's why we needed after a good night. Real soup is to the body what peace is to the soul. Soup is a symphony of flavors dancing on your tongue.

Thank you for having us and serving us with warmth greeting.“

“I've tried every single Vietnamese restaurant with Banh Mi around the Historic Downtown area and this place has the best sandwiches. Very sad I don't live closer to pick up the food or I would order more often. I've ordered dozens of times and the food & service has been consistently great. Highly recommend!“

“I have been to this place every other day the past month, and countless times before that. The food is mouth watering, this is coming from someone who has been to more countries than holes on his body.

The staff are also very friendly and willing to accommodate reasonable requests! I love Pho Express!“

“I am a native SF Bay Area woman with specific needs - and Banh Mi Place hits. Over the last 4+ years, I consistently enjoy the classic and braised beef as well as a grilled pork sparingly. Their summer rolls are filling and the peanut sauce is close to perfect.

I don’t often order pho from here, however I will pick up a side of broth almost every time I order.

Staff is attentive, communicative, and sweet.“

“I have to say this place is now one of my absolute favorites. It’s been a week and I’m still obsessed with the food. I’m heading back as soon as I finish this because it was that incredible.
We found it by accident—the amazing smell pulled us in while heading to a nearby café. We both got brisket pho: my husband with extra noodles and meat, me with lemongrass spicy broth and extra meat. The flavors were perfect, tender brisket, just the right kick. We were too busy savoring to talk at first.
Our server was so sweet and offered us free sodas on the house when she heard it was our first time. The vibe was cozy and relaxed.
The french fries looked amazing next door—next time we’re sharing them for sure.
If you love Vietnamese food, go! Everything was spot on. Can’t wait to be back 😊“

“Hola la Pho is a health conscious and vegetarian’s dream! This is going to be a place I look forward to ordering from again and again.

I ordered the Pho Chay to go and it was EXCELLENT! They package everything separately with care keeping the broth separate from the noodles, veggies and noodles and toppings as well as a great selection of sauces and toppings were included.

The broth is so flavorful and the vegetables are crisp and fresh. The portions were generous. I am over the moon with how excellent the food is!

Picking up my order the restaurant was clean and service was nice and prompt. I loved it here and will be back thank you!“

“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“

“This is by far the best Vietnamese restaurant in Manhattan! My whole family loves it, and we constantly crave their food! We love everything on the menu. The chef/owner is phenomenal, and Emily has been so incredibly kind to us every time we 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 😋“

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

“This place was such an incredible find. Easy street parking is a definite plus. Service was spot on, even as a large group. Everything we had was amazing, especially the spicy lemongrass soup. It was so good, we got one to go! The flan was the best we have ever had as well. Great prices, great value, and overall a great experience. Will definitely be back the next time we head to JC!“

“Popped in last night with 4 young adults. The staff were super friendly, really helpful and the Food was probably the best that I've had in NYC this week. Great range of food, reasonably priced and massive portions. The food was super quick arriving but we did not feel rushed at all and enjoyed and lovely evening. Would Recommend!“
