Terrible quality ingredients. Grilled pork pieces had bone (how you have chunks of bone in paper thin pieices of pork idk), and was mostly fat. Beef was mostly inedible gristle, some of which was the size of walnuts so hard to miss. Food was extremely bare bones, like kitchen ran out of ingredients. Both chow fun and bun noodles were half clumped. Some bun noodles weren't even cooked, with portions of hard but wet noodle chunks. Chow fun (normally chow fun is more of a brown shade from sauce) was very white, literally no seasoning just oil mostly. Very little mung sprouts and a few green onion pieces. While noodles were 5+ layer clumps, at least they were not hard and under cooked like the cold noodles. There were 3 chunks of beef that turned out to be pure gristle and 2 pieces of thin tiny bits of beef that were partially thinly sliced gristle, and only 1 actually appropriately thin sliced beef that was still not great but somewhat passable. Can't believe they charge for the stingy amount of beef, quality aside. Have seen better at asian supermarket prepackaged foods section. Bun was just a smattering of carrot batons and generous amount of cucumber (this was fresh) chunks, a little bit of brown tipped mung sprouts, and a layer of browned lettuce strips, yuck. Normally this cold vermicelli noodle dish is served with loads of julienned veg and fresh herbs. The amount of grilled pork pieces (including gristle and fat) was like a heaping tsp amount, not even a Tbsp! 4 very small shrimp (bigger than ones in an Oregon shrimp cocktail but not by much) on a skewer. Cha gio was extremely greasy, and fyi did not use the rice paper but chinese spring roll paper. Portions were on the smaller side. Definitely the smallest plates/bowls of chow fun and bun we have ever seen ((and we normally order half size pho/bun etc. when its an option), not even considering the stinginess of the other components. We had to spit out the fortune cookies, they had an odd off odor and taste. Really regret not having gone to Jade Dumpling (not perfect but safest choice for asian food cravings in Eugene), and just foregoing the chow fun craving. Minor side note: Agree with other reviews that it isn't the cleanest. Went to 4 tables before finding one with napkins, napkins holders/utensil trays all needed refills. Had to wipe down our table before sitting down bc there were some black sticky shavings? Everywhere. And this was at opening time. Sauce containers were very sticky and had to hunt down extra napkins to handle them. After wiping the outside and opening a lid, decided against using any.

This is as real as I've experienced it. Incredible food. Big portions. Season and spice to taste at your table with chili oil, paste, salt, sugar, and soy sauce.

This is a very warm, cozy, and friendly restaurant, with delicious, simply prepared home recipes. The crispy pancake with shrimp is perfect!

Love this place. I've been eating here since I was a kid. Although the portions are a lot smaller than what they used to be sadly. It's still very good.

If you're craving authentic Vietnamese flavors, Vietnam Restaurant is an absolute gem — and home to the best special beef noodle soup (pho dac biet) I've ever had. The broth is unbelievably rich and aromatic, with deep layers of beefy goodness and just the right touch of star anise and spice. Every bite of the rare steak, brisket, tendon, and tripe was tender and perfectly cooked.
Fresh herbs, lime, and crispy bean sprouts made it even better — and the portion was generous. Warm, friendly service and a cozy setting sealed the deal. This place isn’t just good — it sets the bar for pho in Eugene.

Mediocre pho in Eugene. I’ve been here many times and tried a variety of dishes, but the food consistently falls short of authentic Vietnamese flavors. The atmosphere and service are what you’d expect from a casual hole-in-the-wall spot, but the recipes seem adjusted more for Eugene taste buds…. True pho lovers understand a “ pho dac biet” experience.

I had the #6 Pho and it was delicious! Prices were great, I'm used to spending $16-$20 a meal but prices were less than $15 a serving. Our waiter was attentive, amiable, and quick. I will be back!
Their Chashu Ramen and Singapore rice noodle are amazingly good.

Let me tell you this place is quiet. The waitress doesn’t go and check on you BUT that’s because they know their food is so good that you will not need anything else and they let you eat in peace!!! Hands down best Pho I ever had !!! 10/10 for sure

This was the worst restaurant experience of my life. The outside was dirty as was the inside. The food took forever despite the fact that they weren’t busy. When the food finally arrived it tasted off, like it was going bad. We left without eating very much and my stomach still felt funny after. Just be warned…

The staff are friendly and the service is fast. The ambiance is low key and the vibes are chill. Vietnam restaurant has the best pho I've had in Eugene l, and I believe I've tried every other pho in town. It's soooo goooood.
