46 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in New York

“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.“

“We went for my husband's birthday with some friends, and were seated at a beautiful booth. The food and drinks are delicious. As a south East Asian American, I felt that the cuisine was spot on and loved how all the flavors mixed together from dish to dish. The ambiance is charming, the decor is so beautiful, and the staff is friendly and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“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.“

“Check them out!! Very good pricing.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!!!!“

“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. 😋 👌 😊“

“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 😋“

“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.“

“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.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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.“

“Really amazing food! We ordered Caramel Pork Banh Mi, Beef Bulgogi Bowl, and Kimchi Fries. Fantastic flavors and it just hit the spot after walking all over NYC. I ate the bowl before taking a picture because I could not wait. It just smelled so good. The spicy mayo sauce is so addictive and the fries were crispy and delicious. It's a small shop so there may not be enough space to sit if it's busy. But I would 100% be back the next time I'm in the city.“

“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.“

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

“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!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“great Vietnamese sandwich and a lot of variety.“

“Delicious food and cool atmosphere. My place in NYC“

“I love the #5 but it’s almost never available whenever I visit. Ugh. But I’m still giving tenten 5 stars because when I am lucky enough to order #5, I forgive them immediately. Other menu items are super flavorful, too. Also I love their condiments. Please please please sell your hot sauce separately!!!!!!“

“Amazing food !!
truly feels like Vietnam. The soups were incredibly flavorful and the noodles were perfect. The place was very busy, which says a lot, but everything moved fast and smoothly. It’s a small spot, yet super efficient. The soup bowls are huge portions, which we loved. We also tried the banh mi and it was delicious. We found this place by accident while walking and ended up having such a great experience. Would happily come back again.“

“Fish banh mi is the best fish sandwich I’ve ever had in my life. The fish is SUPER fresh and tender/flakey, the fish fillet breading is not too thick, the fresh made house baguette is soft (not stale at all), the pickled carrots also tasted fresh and not like they’ve been sitting around like other banh mi spots. Love they have a wide delivery radius and go downtown. The fried chicken banh mi is flavorful too but spicy.“

“Great Pad Thai! I am so glad I chose to go to this restaurant I had no idea it was here because of until I was right outside of it. I enjoyed my food and the staff provided great and friendly service. Food is also at a great price especially compared to the place next door. Will come again!“

“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 😋“

“Tasty flavorful and delicious the bread is to die for“

“Twin Tails is excellent Thai-Vietnamese fusion. Excellent-tasting natural food every time with great sauces, spices and textures. I've tried probably close to half of their menu by now. Relatively fast service even when busy. Availability is good - have always been able to get a seat with no or minimal wait (but we'd like to keep it that way so don't share this place with too many people). Convenient location. Not too noisy or crowded. Nice interior decor and vibes. Very reasonable prices given all aspects including food quality. Some tables are slightly small (depending on how much you order), but if you sit on a sofa or next to the windows there's at least more space to place unchecked belongings, etc. Something for essentially everyone on the menu, whether you're pescetarian (like me), a regular omnivore, carnivore or herbivore (vegan/plant-based).“

“Short Rib Pho was delicious..definitely coming back“

“Small restaurant but packs a huge punch. The Mama Pho was amazing. Broth was flavorful, beef and beef balls were tender. Bánh Mi was also great, the bread was crunchy but soft. The iced Vietnamese coffee was a perfect accompaniment to the food.“

“Excellent food excellent service! Everything was so fresh and delicious.“

“My favorite 🍜 place in the 🌎 😋“

“I have found this place by chance. It's quite close to my place, but if you don't really look for it you won't find it. It's take out only. They have pho, bun bo, ramen and curry soup, along with bahn mi and other bowls. I loved the beef pho, and I really appreciate how they adjusted it to my taste. The portions are huge and the price is the best around. I would recommend trying all of their soups!“

“Large portions and pretty delicious. The pho came in a large bowl. The vegetable spring roll was also good but had only one shrimp per cut roll. The bahn mi was probably my favorite. It was flavorful and filling. For the price, I'd definitely come back.

The service and atmosphere is good too. We went during lunch time and there were only a few other customers there, so it was very nice and quiet.“

“It’s easy to miss Mama’s Cupboard because of its sub-street level location. But you’ll be pleasantly surprised by its jazz bar ambiance. Thumbs up for the fried rice bowl lunch special ($14 plus tax). The crispy tofu remained crispy because it was placed on top rather than cooked with the rice. The Thai iced tea was served after the food came out, a bit odd when drinks are usually served first. Please note that the suggested tips are based on the taxed total.“

“Came here for the pho and was not disappointed! Prices are great, portions were generous and food was delicious. I had the eye round pho; my vegan friend got the veggie pho and loved it! Definitely on our list to visit again 😋🍲“

“Visiting Just Pho You was a good experience I order the beef short rib pho my added meat was brisket. The broth was amazing, the meat was so tender. As an appetizer I had the lemongrass wings, very eye appealing I wish it was a little more seasoned but it was okay not completely bad. It was happy hour on drinks and appetizers, so that’s a plus. The atmosphere was good, it’s not a huge spot but still nice. It was a cold day and inside was cold as well but having soup made up for being cold.“

“It's not the kind of place you can have a big group of people eat, it's a pickup spot. The banh mi sandwiches are really fantastic. Service is quick, efficient, and to the point. I always bring people here to impress them and it never disappoint.“

“Very good selection of pho and Vegetables dishes where we go for vegan dishes and quiet spot that many people pass by. On the quiet block of Grand st.
The atmosphere very asian and service is a little rude but the food deliveries in large bowls.
We love the vegetarian choicest like the water spinach and string beans over rice dishes.
Also have so great lunch specials deals.“

“The food wasn’t expensive, and it came really fast!! The restaurant is also clean and the service is good. However, the broth wasn’t super flavorful, and I added a lot of chilli sauce just for flavor. This is a good option if you’re looking for a quick bite.“
