26 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Allen

“Portion sizes were on the smaller side, but overall, I’d definitely come back. The meat was tender and well-cooked, and the overall quality of the ingredients seemed pretty decent. One unique thing about this place is that they don’t bring out the usual plate of bean sprouts, basil, and other garnishes that typically accompany pho.

The spring rolls were tasty — the pork especially stood out — though they were a bit smaller than expected. The atmosphere was pleasant and family-friendly, with a nice little play area for kids. Overall, a cool little spot worth checking out.“

“A good place for pho and family homemade food on Stacy Rd in Allen. A friendly and relaxing place to have quick lunch and dinner. They serve delicious pho noodle bowls, beef or chicken pho, fried rice and noodle dish and authentic Bun Bo Hey (Spicy Hue Pho). I came for a pho but saw they have a good looking bun bo hue. Gave it a try and it was good. Spiciness level at 9 but you can ask spicy level 5 or 6. I might have to come by for beef pho and summer shrimp rolls for full review. If you are Asian food lover, you find this place good with food Vietnamese and Chinese cuisine. Reasonable price and fast friendly service. Come by and check out yourself. The staffs are friendly, good server Sky and big shout to Duong, the chefs and family staffs. Good job keep Vietnamese to Allen community. Good food to enjoy but need improve cleanliness in restroom that would be 10/10. Highly recommend for visitors, local diner or Asian food lovers 🍜

Update: Come back for beef Pho. Very good and fresh. Highly recommended for any pho lovers.“

“The lady was annoyed with me once I got my take out order bc I asked for soy sauce, mind you it was my first time there and everything looked so good, I like a little substitution sometimes... I wasn't rude though. Lol dang... The food was fire 🔥 though, I'd go back and order from her short answer giving self!“

“Our favorite go-to Pho place. Haven't tried anything on the menu that we didn't like. They also have the best Vietnamese coffee! Definitely recommend!“

“Bún bò Huế is very delicious ấy Phở Tây Đô Texas“

“This restaurant has really good food by the night I went there they were seriously understaffed. I felt bad for the hostess/waitress/manager because she was very nice, especially for the stress she was under. The veggies (bean sprouts, lettuce, carrot slivers etc.) were super fresh and delicious. The cha gio was perfect and my com thit nuoung was perfectly cooked and flavorful.
I have to go back another time to see what they are like fully staffed.“

“Absolutely amazing sandwiches!! Super fresh ingredients.“

“Best Pho in North Dallas. Owners are great people.“

“Great food and ambience!🍴👍“

“Most tasty Pho around. Bold flavors and this location never disappoints.“

“Review from a sick person:
I have 3 kids. We were treated to the stomach flu 2 weeks ago by a play place we took the kids to, so I ordered pho for myself for delivery. It was so much food I couldn’t finish it so I drained the broth to save the broth in the fridge to drink later. The broth was a complete gel… absolutely solidified. This tells me the person making the broth knows what they are doing as it has all the collagen in it. It’s a quality broth.

So now here I am today. We got invited earlier in the week to a kids birthday party at Chuck E Cheese. I’ve had a fever for 4 days now and took a home flu test. I tested positive for Flu A. I am going to get more pho just for the broth. They offer a noodles and broth only option which is perfect for why I am getting soup. I live 2 minutes from this place and I am writing this review because I’m thankful for their broth and never want them to close. My son is in kindergarten so many more sicknesses are ahead of us.“

“Wonderful fresh food. Nice ambiente.“

“This little gem gave us a fantastic end to the week. Cozy and simple, the food tasted like it was made in a grandma's house—tasty and rich. The staff was very polite, sweet, inviting, and pleasant. The PHO was delicious, with meat of excellent quality, and you didn't feel the need to add much soy or spice to enhance the flavor—just a little hot sauce zing. The noodles were good, and silverware was offered as an optional accompaniment. There were plenty of parking spaces available, and it was easy to find one.“

“My husband and I were struggling to pick a place to eat in this cold weather, but one review (and the picture!) totally sold me. We ended up trying the trio sampler with meatballs, shrimp springroll, and the crunchy eggroll. The meatballs were a little small, but the flavor was on point. The price difference between a regular and large Pho is only $1…so of course we went big! Zero regrets — the Pho was delicious and perfect for this cold weather! Overall great service & food!“

“TLDR; food is amazing. Staff is great. Location is busy. Atmosphere is a bit cramped and noisy.

We ordered the V6 pork and shrimp vermicelli, P1 beef combo special, S1 Chicken soup, and Spicy Seafood soup.
All were amazing, delicious and fresh ... Though it took 30m to get the soups out, the vermicelli bowl came out in about 10 mins.“

“Hands down one of the best bowls of pho I have ever had in front of me. The broth is rich, flavorful, savory, and kind of sweet. DO NOT EVEN GET ME STARTED about the portions. The bowl, I fear, was the size of my big head (kind of). My family usually does not get pho, but they really liked this place. The Banh mi here, guys, please get it. I haven't tried Banh mi from other places, but even my uncle (big fan of Banh mi) loves it here. The Banh Xeo here is really good too! Overall, this place is amazing. Right now, as I am writing this review, I yearn for the food here.“

“Both locations are good but this spot has better parking and more space.

Food:
Grilled Pork Banh Mi. My go to banh mi. Fresh bread and savory pork.

Pork Spring Rolls (2) were delicious. One of the few places that balance the amount of ingredients instead of loading it with vegetables and noodles where you don’t even get enough pork per bite. These were great!

Asian approved 👍🏼“

“I was looking for a Pho place in this area and this seems to be the only Vietnamese place around. There are a few other places but they seem to be Thai places that also serve Pho. I love Thai food but I prefer to get my Thai food from a Thai place and my Pho from a Vietnamese place. I've been here a few times before so I knew I'd at least get decent Pho.

First, there was one main server and she is awesome at handling the whole area. She took our order right away and we got our order quickly.

The Pho definitely hit the spot. The last time I was there was maybe closer to summer so not the ideal time for have a steaming hot dish.

Last time I got the beef stew with bread. The bread was amazing, so good!!! The stew was good but didn't not as good as the Pho when the weather was cold.

If you want good Pho, I would definitely recommend giving this place a try!“

“We've passed by this place a million times, I finally decided to check it out with my husband(he's NOT open to trying new things). The food was FIRE!💯 Even my husband loved it! We each had a bowl of Pho with a shared side of wings.“

“Popped in tonight for some pho with the family, of course the kid had chicken fried rice...... smh.... He confirmed yumminess at the proper rice-a-tude levels and was very happy with his choice.

The wife had the shrimp pho and left the bowl cleaned to bottom. The report was tasty, brothy, and it didn't taste like a shrimp trawler parked on a salt lick. She was very happy indeed.

I had the beef pho, added in all the goodies including siracha. I chopsticked, slurped and spooned with abandon. It was awesome, subtle, and didn't taste like burning. I enjoyed myself big time.

The owner(?) was super nice and one hard werkin' pho maestro. Kudos to you my dude. Everyone left happy with a full belly and heart.“

“First time visit -
Went here for late lunch/early dinner with my son. I ordered chicken pad Thai and my son chicken fried rice. Both very good portions for the price. Extremely yummy & fulfilling! Added jalapeños to my chicken pad thai 😋“

“Lua Kitchen is a fantastic Vietnamese spot in Garland that delivers on both flavor and presentation. The food is fresh, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. We tried several dishes, including vermicelli bowls, rice plates with grilled meats, and a fried rice topped with a perfectly runny egg—everything was flavorful without being heavy. The bun dishes were especially good, with crisp veggies, tender meat, and a great balance of herbs, fish sauce, and crunch.

The menu has a wide variety of traditional options, portions are generous, and prices are reasonable for the quality. The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and comfortable, making it great for casual dining or a relaxed meal with friends. Service was friendly and attentive.

If you’re looking for authentic, consistently good Vietnamese food in the area, Lua Kitchen is definitely worth a visit.“

“Very nice atmosphere with nice diverse music. Pleasant staff! Food is very authentic and fresh! Beautiful dishes. Price is comparable to other Asian restaurants in north Texas-to be expected. I love the desserts!“

“We stopped in for Pho on a totally random day and were blown away! The broth was rich, flavorful, and clearly prepared the right way. The meat portions were generous—much more than most competitors in the area. This spot is truly a hidden gem and definitely a must-try!“

“super good food owner is friendly and very helpful plate portions are huge you gotta try the oodles and noodles“

“It's so calm and the food freaking slaps!!!
Granted, you won't be welcomed with like smiles or anything; and there's an angry asian lady. HOWEVER, that's how you know the food is gonna slap 🤣 She's just a pro but not rude.
Been coming here for years! The quality and value just can't be beat!“
