“Antonio was great. Loved the chocolatini and smoky old fashioned. Pleasantly surprised with all of the good vegetarian options. The spicy creamy vegan ramen broth was the best.Vegetarian options: 3 vegetarian ramen options and several other options like impossible meat bun and tacos.“
“My husband and I went here and were seated right away. The service was excellent the entire visit. We wanted to try as many things as possible so we ordered from their pre fixed menu option. Our table was pretty small So the table got really crowded fast! Food was pretty good, the fried fish was surprisingly my favorite. Meal ended with a dessert too. Nice touch. We will definitely be going back and requesting a booth instead of the table because we rarely order one or two items.“
“We went to check out the new Padaek in Arlington after having been to the Falls Church location a few times. This one is nice, service is amazing, and the food is good. Buuuuuuttttt, it's different...I like my food spicy, and knew to order it "Lao spicy". When it arrived at the table, I could see that it just had a bunch of chilis added. This gives it a bit of spice, but is more like a level 3 out of 5. It was just lacking the heat as when ordering spicy at the other location. Obviously, they don't want to overwhelm their guests with spice, but if you're asking for that level of heat, you obviously want it. Oh well...it's good, and the flavors are tasty...but the other location feels more authentic.“
“It is rare for a vegetarian restaurant to endure the time and I hope this restaurant can do it. Since my mother discovered it, she has already been back multiple times. That alone speaks volumes. Others should try and decide for themselves.“
“Restaurant is very clean and well organized. The soup was spicy but it was perfect for the cold weather. The Pad Thai was excellent with fresh bean sprouts. The vegetable dish with tofu was pretty as well as delicious.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options available“
“Food was pretty good though I think this is the first restaurant I’ve ever been asked to leave due to an incoming reservation. We (party of 3) were in the process of leaving anyways but being asked to leave when we’ve been there for under 45 minutes from our own reservation and sitting down at the table. Left a bad impression on an otherwise pleasant experience.“
“So tasty! Went on a rainy Saturday as a party of four, and ended up hitting them during the lunch rush. The entire time the line was out the door, so I knew this place would be very good. I ended up getting the number 6 beef pho— Tai Nam Gan. The restaurant is cash only and the ATM happened to be down during our lunch, so we ran down the street to a different ATM — I’d recommend coming prepared for that. The price is VERY good and we’ll be back!“

“Stumbled upon this absolute gem while exploring Eden Center. All four dishes we got: tofu pad Thai, beef drunken noodles,beef boat soup and pork belly with green beans, were amazing! This is the definition of a hole in the wall and we are so grateful we found it! We are already planning our next trip!“
“Yido is tucked away behind an office building off of Route 7, so it's not the easiest to see from the street. There isn't too much seating, but I went during a quiet time, so there was no issue.They've got this really nice sushi combo for lunch (3 rolls for $16) that my friends and I took advantage of. My favorite roll was the salmon skin roll, which was seasoned very well.I also got a beef ramen, which was pretty good.Overall, a good spot worth checking out! Pricing is fair too.“
“The dumplings are absolutely delicious and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The noodle dishes I could take or leave.If you have family that follows a halal diet, this is probably the closest you'll be able to bring them good, authentic soup dumplings and it's not a bad induction at all!The ambience here is great, they offer a mix of floor, terrace, and table seating.“
“We've gotten delivery from this restaurant a number of times and it's always delicious. The mushroom forest and crispy chive cakes are particular favorites, but we've also had the pad see ew, panang curry, khao soi, and herbal falls and they were great as well. I'm so happy to find a place with khao soi - had it in Chiang Mai and it's hard to find in Thai restaurants around here.“
“Easy five stars. There is so much passion in this little place. It feels like a home cooked meal. Pretty much is. The owner is so kind and welcoming. It's a glimpse of what I wish more businesses were like, with charm, quality, and love of the craft of tea making and food. It's a cute little place with lots of personality. I can see this place becoming very popular.“

“I’m in town for a few days from suburban Atlanta, where we have a pretty good Thai food scene, but this place is my new favorite! The Tom Kha soup, with its significant overtones of lemon is outstanding! The Basil Fried Rice is made with a hint of chili pepper that really rings my bell! And the Wonton Soup, something I might usually take for granted, was the best I ever had! Five Stars and Two Thumbs Way Up! I’ll be back! As a Governator of California once said!??“
“I placed an online order for pick-up. The site was very user friendly, I had no issues placing my order.When I arrived at the restaurant, the employees were super kind and greeted me right away. It was very clean inside and super cute.My food was made right away and I took it home. It was still hot. Very delicious. Highly recommend this place. I ordered the panang curry with chicken. This was my first time here and it won’t be my last.“
“Solid option for some authentic dim sum, some nice selection for one person or to share, I highly recommend the braised pork on rice and the A&J wonton soup, you will not be disappointed with those options.The staff is friendly and helpful, and it's a great lunch spot if you are in the area and not too pricey either.And of course the scallion pancake is delicious.“
“Holy wow this place is amazing. It is unassuming, but the service is fantastic and everything tastes out of this world. I loved my Thai Iced Tea, and I highly recommend the crispy duck and the duck curry - easily one of the best duck dishes I've had in my life. 10/10!“
“Best Taiwanese food we have found in Maryland! Better than two other (primarily) Taiwanese restaurants in Rockville. We were too busy eating and did not take pictures. Restaurant owner and customers were speaking Taiwanese to each. It brought me back to memories of Taiwan. ?Gave 4 stars only because I would have liked the noodle to be more al dente.“
“Things to note:* only pho soup* can order small or large* can add a bowl of noodles on the side* cash only* no veggie soup options; so don’t ask* family/large group friendly restaurant* parking can be limited and people tend to drive a little recklessly —> so park far and walk off the extra noodle carbs on the way back.It’s fantastic, flavorful, and fresh!The noodles are great, the meat is tender, the coffee ????? slaps. I got the iced Vietnamese coffee with the crack- milk (condensed milk).It’s a family restaurant. Big groups, kids, and hungover college students reside here.Service is quick. Sat down, ordered, food came out in 5 minutes! And it was packed!Once you’re done, just go up to the counter and pay. Cash only.You can walk next door and grab rice cakes, tapioca cakes, or sesame balls. Can also grab Bahn mi for dinner later. The ? is ???.“
“Went here for lunch on a weekday, so it was not busy at all which I love. My family comes here to eat whenever we go to Eden. We got a bun mang vit and com tam bi suon cha. They came out pretty quickly. Loved both dishes! So delicious! Make sure you dip the duck meat in the ginger sauce, soooo good. The duck meat is nothing without the sauce that it comes with. My husband loved his com tam as well. Meat was well marinated.“
“November 2023 - I've visited Hai Duong many times over the years. Menu has increased and it's a solid restaurant for pho and rice dishes. Though the last time the boiled chicken was dry. Friendly staff, quick to respond. Clean. Do recommend.“
“I am sure Korean food is the best when tasted in Korea. That's why I'm not a big fan of Korean restaurants abroad. However this one, Rice Bar in DC satisfied me for real. 다만 제 느낌에 1회용 숫가락이 좀더 크면 좋겠고 젓가락에 일본어 적힌 점이 아쉽.. 그래도 또 들리고 싶네요.“
“Honeygrow restaurant always cooks my stir fry meal ? to perfection and the ingredients always taste fresh. The restaurant is clean and the service is quick. The kiosk machine is easy to use in order to place your order. The staff are helpful and always very friendly to speak with.“
“Went here for casual lunch with coworkers and had not been before (but a coworker had been here before) and was super happy with what we got. I got the garlic rice veggie bowl with peanut sauce. I liked the crispy tofu, garicky rice, and the vegetables were perfectly cooked. My only regret was not getting the crispy spring rolls. I really enjoyed the large portion size for price and if you cannot finish you can get lids that they have to go.Lunch is really busy and it’s chaotic but it was fast given the lunch rush and it’s super casual. I am looking forward to going back!Vegetarian options: Has veggie options“
“Cozy and quiet spot for flavorful Japanese food and small plates (izakaya)They have a large menu and nice staff. Plus, there was some soft jazz playing on the speakers.I really loved their kitsune udon! Broth tasted rich, each topping tasted fresh, and the noodles were cooked perfectly chewy.“
“In town for a conference, got there when they opened at noon and was immediately seated in a sunny window spot. Ordered the drunken noodles, it came out in five minutes and it was perfect! Will definitely be back the next time I'm in DC!“
“I’ve ordered from them several times, and their food is always good. Last time, I made a mistake on my end with the online order, and they were incredibly helpful in fixing it for me, and even called to confirm the fix had gone in. Above and beyond service!“
“My wife and often escape our condo office for their tasty and inexpensive lunch. We also get delivered food from them. No delivery charge, but we tip the driver well. We love their eggplant dishes, meaty spare ribs, duck and so far almost everything on their extensive menu.“
“4.5 StarsI have been here a few times and each time was very good. It is my go-to local Thai restaurant. The decor is simple, clean and bright and the space was quiet enough that we could carry on a conversation without being distracted. Service was very good and I’ve never had to ask for a water refill. The flavors are always incredible. My dining companion and I were hungry, so we had the Panisa soup: was incredibly delicious and left satisfied.Parking: Parking spots fill up quickly closer to the restaurant as it’s located in a relatively busy shopping center, but more is available near the grocery store.“
“Went there tonight for a take out for the first time to trying their food! As a Chinese who born and raised in China, their food is so damn good! tast very good! Very authentic! The waiter's attitude is also very good! Come with friends next time! ! !“

“Pho Hai Duong is a fantastic spot in Annandale for fresh Vietnamese flavors, and the folks that run it have a very welcoming energy!Their vegetarian options are fantastic, especially the Bánh Xèo Chay, which is a delightfully crispy crepe filled with tofu and veggies that you wrap in lettuce and dip into a deliciate and savory yet sweet sauce. I'll definately be ordering it again.If you dine in, they're very attentive, service is quick, and the food comes out piping hot. The dining area has a warm glow from the lighting, and it's very clean and cozy. If you order take-out, everything is packaged really well for transit.10/10 would recommend!Parking: They're in a strip with other businesses, and have a large parking lot.“
“I have tried pho restaurants all over Virginia. I've had friend's grandmothers and aunties hit me with the homemade pho. I thought I had greatness but hands down this place kicks all the others in the booty big time. The broth is so clean and flavorful. I've had it hungover and I left the broth out; not one piece of congealed fat from how clean it is. Whoever is making this broth must be protected at all times and I want to send her birthday presents“

“Can I give this restaurant six stars?I loved everything about this pho restaurant. Their spring rolls were great, their pho was perfect, and the service? Way better than I would have thought possible. Let me tell you a story.I was eating, enjoying about a half bottle of Sriracha and chili sauce with my pho, and the server would just roll around and refill my water as I kept chugging. I had an urgent work situation and was on my phone, went up to pay, and left. I had a freak-out moment and drove back to ask if I'd left my wallet in the restaurant, and they bent over backwards to try to help me find it. A server even helped me dig through my car to look for it!So, dismayed and not having found it, I drove back home. Parked my car and it was on the floor under some clothes in the back because I'm an idiot, but still. How great is this place?“
“I ate here for the first time last week. I got a bowl called the drunken Italian and it was quite good. It was just the right level of spicy for me for lunch.Their menu is a good size and they seem very open to changes and alterations to fit your tastes. They are a good lunch time price point on a street with a whole lot of pricy spots.Not much seating so plan on getting it to go, maybe on a nice day to sit by the waterfront.“
“The food was great and so was the service. The cashier that helped us out was very friendly, he was walking around cleaning the entire time we were there and he even checked up on the tables to make sure everything was okay. Will definitely be our go-to noodles and company!“
“For several years my family and I have been coming to Pho restaurant. As you step into large restaurant you notice a sense of freshness and cleanliness. Our favorite server Tony has the upmost professionalism bringing top quality service, very respectful, polite and with great customer service skills. We admire everyone’s dedication to making sure customer leaves happy with the service. Among various delicious food, we recommend crispy chicken wings, veggie spring rolls and beef pho soup. Tropical fruit tea and passion fruit tea are our favorite drinks :)“
“We were craving spicy noodles and this place didn't disappoint. The Chongqing noodles were spicy and full of peanuts, the cold noodles my colleague ordered were full of vegetables. We also tried the spicy pork soup dumplings and the normal pork soup dumplings and both were great. I especially loved the chili oil on the table.“
