50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in San Antonio

“This is my second time coming here and it’s totally worth the drive from Austin! The bánh mì is always fresh, flavorful, and packed with goodness. The bread is crispy on the outside, soft inside—just how it should be. I tried the egg bánh mì this time and it hit the spot. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Definitely one of my favorite bánh mì spots now!“

“This family-run pho restaurant has excellent food prepared with great care. Prices are very reasonable and service is prompt. If you like pho, you should give them a try.“

“The food is amazing and the service is incredible! Definitely a go to place for us now. Haven’t had pho since we left DC six years ago. FANTASTIC!!!! 5 stars for sure!“

“Great food. Great people. We’ve enjoyed it for years!“

“Found this lil place one day coming home from hospital when in San Antonio I really do not like or I mean didn't like Pho but ones I was here man I love it and I have gone back everytime I get a chance when in San Antonio the owners are very nice love their Taro desert and their food is so good if you ever go let them know I recommend them I give it a 10 out 10“

“Excellent food and service. Clean and quiet atmosphere.“

“Great food and relaxing ambiance. My wife and I enjoyed our Friday night here and we had an awesome experience!“

“The food is amazing and great service. Must try!“

“We decided to try Taste of Asia and ordered take out. The beef pho was delicious! But what really impressed us was their customer service. Once we got home we realized they accidentally left out the spring rolls. We called and asked for a refund but they said they were unable to credit the card back over the phone. The manager offered to make it right if we went back in. We declined since we were already home. A few minutes later, the manager calls back and asked us for our address. He ended up personally delivering them to us!! We are impressed and will definitely be going back.“

“Quality food and multiple choices, this place has fast become one our favorite places to go eat lunch.“

“I have never tasted pho like this, I am a pho enthusiast so I have eaten at many different places. I guess pho tastes different depending on the region. My partner also did not like their pho, they said it tasted gamey (beef brisket and flank). The pho I got was the beef stew, it tasted like I was straight up eating bbq water, it was very sweet and there was minimal salt. It did not have the aromatics I’m used to and instead it tasted as if a sauce was put in to flavor the soup. The dishes are not cheap either, each dish is 10+, I went home and grabbed a pizza after.

Hello! Update. I decided to give this place another try and I got their regular brisket pho, it was very delicious and flavorful. Their boba tea was also tasty :-)“

“it was very good will be back“

“I've tried over 20 pho places in San Antonio and this place has the BEST tasting pho. The broth is clean and flavorful. It's so good. The staff had been nothing but nice and attentive to us every time we came and the service was fast. Had the veg and tofu pho, it was good but def second fiddle to their beef pho, but for 9.99 you can't beat the price.“

“Loveeeeee the chicken pho! I’ve been coming here for probably around 5 years and I have never once had a bad experience. The food takes less than 10 minutes to come out, is always super hot and fresh, and always tastes delicious. The environment is super friendly and welcoming, it’s perfect to bring the family to eat all together, and even better just coming in by yourself! Our waitress is always nothing but sweet, polite, and on top of her game. Great place.“

“Our 1st time in this restaurant. We've been in San Antonio for 2 years now. This place is a stand alone building. By far is the best Pho we have tasted in San Antonio. We were greeted with 2 smiling faces. There was 1 gentle man sitting eating when we got there. Our server was more than happy to answer questions about what we ordering. We had Pho and egg rolls, and they were delicious. We ordered Egg Foo Young to go. As we sat there I tell my husband we may be short in giving a tip. I said to him that if I had to sit there and wait for him to come back from home to get cash, then I will. The service given to us was an A+. Thank you ladies for your awesome service. Just a quick add on. Our server said to us that if we didn't have enough cash we could come back the next day. Love ❤️ ❤️ you Miss for saying that thank you. They don't do credit cards, just cash or check. We will definitely be back ladies.“

“Today I had the best grilled pork egg rolls with peanut sauce. I’ve had breakfast here several times as well. Very good boba tea too so I highly recommend this cafe. The photo is from a lunch visit.“

“I've always been curious about this place since we pass by it after getting groceries. I love Pho, so one day I figured I should give this place a try. I walked in and was greeted with excellent service. I ordered the Chicken Pho and regular Thai Tea (no Boba), all to go. They told me it would be about 10min to get ready, so I sat down in the nearby waiting area. I wasn't in any rush and wasn't keeping track of time, so the speed was of no concern to me... but it definitely felt like it was less than 10min, which was nice.

The Chicken Pho was very delicious! With it being ordered to-go, I could put in as much or as little of any of what they provided to me into the broth, which was quite nice. I did add a fair amount of the red sauce they provided to help enhance the flavor and give the Pho a little heat to it, which was wonderful. Usually, when I get Pho, I can never finish it all and eat the remaining amount later, but this time I ate it all! I was craving it more than I thought, I guess, haha!

The Thai Tea (no Boba) reminded me of my trip to Thailand with the Thai Tea I had there. It's that good! If any place serves Thai Tea, I will gladly order it because it's my absolute favorite drink now. The fact that the first sip of it put me back in my memories of touring the markets of Ko Kret and buying a cup of Thai Tea from a local there... that's how you know it's good!

I highly recommend and definitely look forward to visiting again! :)“

“Best Vietnamese food in San Antonio. I grew up in Westminster California and missing Vietnamese food and this place does an amazing job at being authentic.“

“Always hits the spot! I never leave without getting the crispy egg rolls perfectly golden and packed with flavor. The meatball pho is my go-to: rich broth, tender noodles, and those meatballs are on point every time. Consistently delicious and always satisfying. Heavenly Pho lives up to the name!“

“Took the kids and wife for dinner.
Atmosphere is nice but tables are a little cramped.
Service was really amazing. Our lo mein was cooked horribly and was rock hard the first time. Server helped clear it up fast and it was amazing the second time around.
The pho was amazing with fatty brisket and flavor.
Highly recommend this spot for a good warm bowl to bring ya back life.“

“For my first visit, last week I ordered 2 take out sandwiches. The Vietnamese sandwich and the beef sandwich. Both sandwiches were served on the softest freshest bread with delicious meats and wonderful veggies! Some of the veggies were pickled and so very tasty! Service was polite and attentive. It was a full house on Friday but I didn't have to wait long for my order. I look forward to trying more menu items.“

“This place is fabulous. when we moved to this side of town, we needed a new Asian place to eat at. My husband and I chose to eat here and by the first bite, were amazed. With covid, we haven't eaten in since BUT we have ordered takeout MANY times. Let me tell you, WHILE THE FOOD IS SERIOUSLY AMAZING, the service.. genuine, humanly good service of these folks is just.. beautiful. Theyre seriously so nice. Which honestly, makes this one of our go to spots and we will consistently recommend this place to others.“

“My family and I wanted to get Vietnamese food, but we decided to try a different spot instead of our usual Pho Kim Long. The restaurant itself is very “hole in the wall”. There was giant fan instead of AC, and the menus were a bit… “well-read”. The lids of the condiments were also rather crusty. However, if I know anything, it’s that many unsuspecting or even dubious places have immaculate food. Pho Thien A wasn’t exactly immaculate, but it was definitely tasty. My mother and sister’s phos were both decent with plenty of meat. I’d actually say they put more meat in their pho than most other establishments. I had the bun Bo hue. The broth was a bit lacking in flavor, but the meatballs and “ham” were absolutely tasty. My brother git the grilled short ribs. He said they were very delicious, but the amount of food was disappointing. The fresh spring rolls were quite good and had plenty of filling.

The only actually BAD thing was that the Coke Zero cans we received were expired by 3 months… we didn’t notice until after drinking them, and they tasted okay, but that should really be checked by staff more often.

Overall, not a bad spot for decent Vietnamese grub.. maybe just check the dates on your beverage cans, though.“

“Awesome spot for pho in San Antonio. Small place but food packs a punch and the service is quick. Came here for lunch and I got my food in less than 10 minutes. What blew me away was the flavor. Staff is friendly and patient. Prices are great. Can’t really ask for more. Great small spot“

“This is an amazing restaurant. The food is made fresh from scratch every dish. This a must dine place or to go place. This is a ten star restaurant with the family style place very basic but extremely“

“A Remarkable Dining Experience – Wok This Way Sets the Standard Wok This Way is an absolute gem that exceeded all my expectations, both in terms of food quality and service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made me feel instantly at home. The restaurant’s ambiance is a wonderful blend of traditional and contemporary, creating a cozy yet vibrant setting that perfectly complements the delicious cuisine. The food was nothing short of extraordinary. Each dish was prepared with a level of care and precision that showcased authentic Asian flavors while incorporating modern twists. The variety on the menu was impressive, offering everything from classic favorites to unique chef specials. We sampled a few different dishes, including the savory Kung Pao chicken, the aromatic Thai basil stir-fry, and a perfectly crispy spring roll appetizer – each one was a standout in its own right. The balance of flavors was impeccable, and the freshness of the ingredients truly shined through. You can tell the kitchen team is passionate about their craft, and it reflects in the quality of every bite. What truly elevated the experience at Wok This Way, however, was the top-tier service. Ricky, who not only served us but is also the owner, brought a level of hospitality that was both professional and heartfelt. His attention to detail was exceptional – he made sure our glasses were never empty, checked in to see how we were enjoying each course, and even took the time to share stories about the restaurant’s journey. It’s rare to come across a place where the owner takes such a hands-on approach, and it made our visit feel incredibly personal and special. Ricky’s genuine kindness and dedication to providing an outstanding dining experience were truly a blessing. Overall, Wok This Way offers more than just a meal – it delivers an experience that lingers long after you’ve left. The combination of outstanding food, an inviting atmosphere, and remarkable service creates a dining destination that sets a high standard. For anyone looking to indulge in delicious Asian cuisine served with a side of heartfelt hospitality, Wok This Way should be at the top of your list. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to try more of the mouthwatering dishes on their menu!“

“We ordered the ginger fish , Wonton soup , and spring rolls . The first round we ordered Ginger fish and wonton soup. We couldn’t believe how good that food was we went BAK and ordered more lol . So good , so fresh , wonderful customer service no long wait . We will be back!“

“I love the traditional Vietnamese/coffee house vibes. When I lived in Houston, these types of places are on every corner, and the food/drinks are delicious. I'm so glad to have found a good spot in San Antonio. Bahn-Mi's are unmatched for San Antonio and their drinks are also amazing! (I had the pomegranate lychee green tea today.) Cannot recommend this spot enough.“

“Great god and great prices, definitely love this place.“

“This was my first time coming here with my brother and sister-in-law. They've raved about this place for a while now.
The food was awesome, I got the Pad Basil. Very tasty, maybe the best Pad I ever had! Large portions and great service.“

“Very nice staff. Love their vermicelli!“

“Been coming here for over a decade. It's our go-to restaurant when we cant agree where to go. Food is consistent, comes out quickly and the portions are large enough to have leftovers for lunch for work the next day. The service is great!“

“My favorite restaurant in SA! Come here almost every week!“

“The Brisket Pho was phenomenal! Great service, fast and clean.“

“The food served nice and hot. Service was excellent!“

“1st time eating at China Sun! First impression was on the cleanliness of the restaurant! Awesome. Then our server was so nice. The food was the best we’ve had in a while. Came out steaming hot and plentiful. Prices were fair. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Great customer and even better PHO!!!“

“Ive never had Vietnamese before coming here. This was a great place to start it looks like a family owned buisness so service was slightly lacking: we never got refills for our drinks (but im not sure if its because they charge for each refill) my husband got the Curry Chicken - C21 & I got the Pho steak -P4. I really like my pho it had flavor and if you want you can ask for it spicy. NOTE- The portions sizes are BIG so do not come thinking its a small portion.“

“The service here is amazing. The pho tasted so good and I had some scallops with shrimp and veggies with a side of white rice that came with it and it came to a total of 30 bucks :) they're open 6 days a week, closed on Sundays. The place is very clean and even the cook came up to our table and made sure we were taken care of without being annoying (some places check on you too often) we'd totally come back again!“

“We had the appetizer sampler which was a great size and each item was good. The egg rolls were my favorite and my husband loved the potstickers. He had the pho with beef and really enjoyed it. I ordered the cashew nuts with chicken and it was really good. The vegetables were cooked nicely and the portion sizes were good. Their sauce work is great and they have a decent depth of flavor. We'll probably be back to try more!

Vegetarian options: Most entrees have a choice of protein, so can easily pick to leave it off or maybe do tofu.“

“I love this place! I’ve eaten here since the late 80s. It’s sad to see them struggle after Covid, but they’re hanging on. Please eat here! Support local! The food is amazing in spite of the building being run down. Their wine selection Bo’s INSANE!“

“Best Thai in Kendal always absolutely delicious! :-D“
