50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Mclean

“Tyson Center’s Chinese fast food hot pepper sausage is recommended by many people. I ordered one portion and it was really good. The price of 13 dollars a portion is quite cost-effective. You can add a portion of large intestine for an extra 5 dollars. The lunch box is the main meal and rice. There is no Other side dishes are a bit monotonous when eaten alone, and the taste is a bit heavy and needs to be mixed with water. The fried udon is just so-so, and the dumplings are okay.

Parking: There are many in the mall“

“Delicious flavorful food with friendly service. Plentiful omnivore and vegan options. One of my favorites in all of Alexandria.“

“Excellent food. Authentic Vietnamese taste. Very clean flavors.“

“The menu was extensive and slightly $$$. Drinks were pricey. However, surprisingly the portions were sharable and delicious! Presentation was fab. The 3 of us shared a whole fish(1-2 people 2lbs) and a risotto. The fish dish was presented beautifully w lettuce, basil, cilantro and threaded noodles w a sauce to make lettuce wrap with the deboned whole fish. It’s was a fabulous meal!“

“The pork and the lemongrass chicken banh mi do not disappoint. The beef pho hit the spot for a cold and rainy night. Definitely will be back for some more fried bananas! 🍌“

“Little Saigon is a friendly and welcoming white-tablecloth restaurant offering an extensive Vietnamese menu of deliciously prepared and graciously served appetizers, entrees, and side dishes. On this, our first visit, we were seeking pho, and were amply rewarded with generous snd delicious servings of both a chicken pho and a beef pho, and our vegetarian Spring rolls were a great start. We’ll return soon to sample more of their enticing menu.“

“Hi. I’m here right now enjoying the food. And to be honest I was very stressed. Mr Michael gave me a magic drink and now I’m writing this review. Everyone don’t missed the the drink, desserts and lovely music. Hope you like it as much as I do.“

“Came back today for a delicious lunch! Food was hot and fresh. The egg rolls are so crispy and delicious like nowhere you’ve had before! I got a delicious egg noodle dish with chicken and shrimp and enjoyed it with all the sauces (except sriracha which I’ve tried before). Loved the addition of bok choy. Yum! Tried a little of my wife’s phổ and it was also delicious and authentic with such rich flavor. We also got an iced coffee with coffee flavored jelly and it’s so bold and flavorful and balanced. The decor is cozy and fun - love the lanterns!“

“Phở ngon , thơm , giá công bằng👍“

“I had a full meal at this Vietnamese restaurant. The spring rolls were about the same as any other pho restaurant but the broth for the wonton noodle soup did not disappoint. I got it with pho tuoi since i like the fatter rice noodles. I finished my entire bowl!“

“This place is the absolute BEST!!!“

“Located inside the Eden Center Mall, this is an authentic Vietnamese restaurant with a large menu and friendly service.

I have been here twice in the past a few months. It seemed to be more crowded during lunch time. During dinner time, we were seated immediately. There were also a few small tables outside in the hallway.

The beef noodle soup is a must. I also like Bun Nem Nuong. I am not familiar with Hue food, but everything we tried was tasty. Some of the food can be very spicy though.“

“We greatly enjoyed our meals tonight. My daughter had Pho and my son and I had Bun.“

“best bun cha ha noi in town.“

“We had a memorably great experience at Chay Restaurant tonight. The atmosphere is beautiful and whimsical, with big lotus flowers on the wall and hanging woven basket lights. Every table in the restaurant was full, and the service was excellent and is owned by the most delightful and hospitable couple. Finally, the food was outstanding. We got an appetizer, salad, 2 mains and dessert and everything was delicious. The creativity and thoughtfulness that the owner/chef puts into her food was evident in every dish. The food was nourishing and so dang tasty. We will definitely be returning!

Dietary restrictions: Super accommodating for gluten free and have abundant vegan options“

“Was craving Vietnamese food on a Friday night after a long week, and ended up picking Present due to their extensive menu options. Ordered a noodle dish (bun rieu), a salad dish (goi hai san trai thom), and a beef dish (bo luc lac) to share. Everything was flavorful, but the pineapple was my personal favorite, both in terms of flavor and presentation. The noodles in bun rieu could have been better since some parts were stuck to each other and/or broken. The restaurant is spacious, with peaceful decor. The service was decent but a little too aggressive–they kept asking if they could take things away while we were still working on the food. Overall, I can recommend Present if you are looking for a Vietnamese option in DMV.“

“Looks nice and modern inside. Service is fast! The one cool thing is they do take credit card. Rotisserie chicken here is our favorite. Broken rice is also good. Beef cubes is my son's favorite after rotisserie chicken. We've been here a few times and also order to go often.“

“Bun Bo Hue. Very good. I can’t believe you have this much competition of good viet food in a single location of Eden center. The BBH is a perfect spice level. Not too spicy but enough to let you know is there. The only difference is they don’t give you a whole pork feet but have pieces of pork feet without the bone which I was happy with. Broth was on the slightly sweeter side. It is still very good. Big fan and will visit if I have a chance.“

“I got the chicken pho and made it extra spicy. It was so good and full of flavor! Such generous portion! Service is a bit slow only because there is 1 waitress and she is also checking people out and handling delivery services. But she was absolutely sweet! 10/10 will definitely go back.“

“This place is known as best Pho noodle place since 90’s for locals and taste still the same !!! We are all glad that they came through the pandemic without change anything such as “cash only” business model and not having ordering system.“

“what amazing good and service my guest loved at as i did again.“

“The location of this restaurant is difficult to find, as a first-time guest. The dishes were very unexpected. I had beef rice, the beef was tender and juicy, the seasoning was sweet, and the rice had a delicious crispy crust due to the high pot temperature. Pork Spring rolls is also a dish worth trying. The seasoned pork and crispy chips are perfect in taste.

Parking: Because there are many shops here and sometimes they occupy the parking lot for events, parking spaces are difficult to obtain“

“All I can say is .... wonderful pho at this restaurant. Definitely reconmend!.“

“Their pho’s quality is consistently good. Except they should provide disposable chopsticks for hygienic reasons instead of reusable plastic ones. Don’t get their sandwiches (bánh mì) because they taste awful. Bread are old and brittle, meat has freezer burnt taste. My advice is only eat pho here. Staff are not friendly but will get you what you ask for. 5% off if paid cash.“

“The pho here is pretty good, and the service was pretty quick. Quicker than some of the pho restaurants I’ve been to. If I had one thing that could be better, it would be for the the beef tripe in the pho to be a bit softer. It felt a bit tough, and sometimes felt like I was choking on it. Also, the summer rolls was great, but I was disappointed that, despite saying no peanut sauce, they still served peanut sauce. At least it was corrected.

I give points for service because my friend was stuck in traffic, while I came about half an hour earlier, but they accommodated him by allowing him to order ahead and have the food delivered to the table while he was en route.

Vegetarian options: They offer vegetarian rice vermicelli, and veggie noodle soup.

Dietary restrictions: Could do better with accommodating people with allergies.

Parking: Parking is a bit cramped and can be restricted because of the nearby Trader Joe’s.

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids’ size pho with choice of well-done flank or meatballs.“

“Really tasty food and very friendly people! Would recommend especially the pork belly tacos!“

“The food is great. I came with some friends to check out the place and try the foods they had to offer. We got seated right away and took our drinks. We ordered some spring rolls which were decently priced for the size which it was accompanied by some dipping sauces. We also ordered some pho and they had chili oil, Sriracha, and hoisin sauce. Overall the time it took to get all our food for 3 people was no longer then 10mins“

“my favorite hole-in-wall thai ! finally i found a Thai place with a curry sauce that features great veggies + meat, decent portions, and silky smooth. The pangang and green curry were delicious...the green curry was great but the pangang was chef's kiss. We also got the Pad Thai and combo basil fried rice... excellent! As if that wasn't enough...there were chics kicking a** behind the counter. Li, her sister, and a young girl were all very friendly and quite the cooks in the kitchen.
PS at first glance the parking looks terrible but there's more & better parking behind the building.

Great job ladies! I'll be back!“

“Món nào cũng ngon , sẽ quay lại tiệm .“

“I must say their banh mi is one of the best in USA and Canada. Yeah, I love banh mi, so I eat lots of places. However, I saw the young woman who's a cashier there, picks up a new bread that falls on the floor and puts it in with all the breads that they are making for customers. I was shocked to see that. I will call them back to talk to the owner or mgr about that.“

“Ordered jasmine tea, grilled chicken Banh mi, vegetarian fried imperial rolls and the non fried vegetarian spring rolls. I have no complaints at all, the food was fresh, delicious and satisfying. Staff was cordial, patient and polite. The entire restaurant was clean, well lit and comfortable to sit in for a nice meal. I will definitely return 10/10“

“Good food and good atmosphere.“

“Best Bun Bo Hue (translates to English as Spicy Vietnamese Beef Noodle Soup) in the DMV. This is a little hole in the wall restaurant located in Eden Center. We usually have the duck salad to start. In case you haven't had the opportunity, Bun Bo Hue broth tastes rich and deep, spicy, with a hint of sweet, citrusy lemongrass. Be sure to add the fresh herbs to your bowl, they really enhance the flavor of the soup. The sliced cabbage adds texture and crunch while the noodles are perfectly thick and chewy. I highly recommend taking the drive to Falls Church for this dish alone.“

“This is great Pho, would totally recommend. Awesome fast service :)“

“We ordered the spring rolls, summer rolls, number 86 chicken sautéed with lemon grass and chillie, and the pho deluxe! Overall the experience was really good. The server was super friendly and attentive. The spring rolls were crunchy and warm and the phó had a good amount of noodles although I wish there was a bit more soup but still good. My friend really liked his food. He is a super big fan!!“

“my grilled chicken bánh mì was super delicious. thank you! I just wish you'd bring back the tofu in the vegetarian certain so my husband would have some protein in his!“

“Đồ ăn hải sản, Miền Trung style, nhậu rất ngon. Có karaoke ? chơi thoải mái.Unbelievably affordable price, the sizes of the King Oysters came out looked stunning. The overall dishes look and taste great. Must try!!I did not mind the small and lack of table spaces, it made this place feel more cozy, warmed, and welcoming with the additional karaoke. The open vibe is truly unique to stores commonly found across southeast Asia. I will come back with more friends.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had lunch at Pho Saigon 75, and the food was fantastic! The restaurant is new, clean, and has a comfortable atmosphere. The service was friendly and welcoming, which made for a great dining experience.

I started with the gỏi cuốn (spring rolls) as an appetizer, followed by the phở and mì xào giòn (crispy noodles). Every dish was delicious, flavorful, and fresh. I definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for good Vietnamese food in Fairfax!“

“Great food - Nhung mon an thuan tuy cua VN, tuyet voi.“

“Cafe Trung Nguyen truly impressed us with their mouthwatering pork and chicken grilled skewers at our company meeting! The flavors were so irresistible that not a single skewer remained. The owner and staff exhibited exceptional reliability and efficiency in fulfilling our catering needs. I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to savor their authentic cuisine firsthand!“

“I love Chè Bà Ba , chè Thưng“

“the absolute BEST pho ive ever had. i crave pho sate at least once a week and have never been disappointed when i go. very consistent food quality and service. ive introduced all my friends and family to this place and they’re all equally as obsessed as me! the fried tofu pho is my go to!“

“My wife and I had dinner there on the way home from DC. The Pho was excellent and they gave us so much we took half of it home to have for dinner the next night too. Really good!“

“Came in on a quiet Friday evening and was greeted by the gentleman behind the counter, promptly seated and given a menu. I asked him about the salted lemonade, and he told me they pickle the entire lemon so it's very salty. Boy he wasn't kidding - it was like a sports drink; just what I was looking for!

I ordered lemongrass pork and rice and the food came out shortly after my drink. Pork was crispy and well seasoned, a big pile of shredded carrot and a healthy portion of rice rounded put the dish. Everything was hot, tasty, and brought out quickly.

I'll definitely come back to try a bahn mi next time!“

“This is the best venue in town for organizing a reception or a small party. We were a group of old friends, about 40-50 of us, coming from all over the states. For $50/person, we partied from 5:30PM to midnight. Food, drinks, music ... you named it, all are excellent. The owner even came out and did some shot with us. Some of us have not seen each other for 30-40 years so you can imaging how "loud" we can be :-) ... All in all we had a good time. Next time, you need to have a private party, just ask for the bar area ... it can hold 50 to 60 very loud and obnoxious adults - with an outside area for smokers (cigars and all ...) Service can be slow if your crowd is all over places but we can grab water bottles from the bar and even serving our whiskey shots our own styles ... so who is complaining? :-) we had so much fun that they even forgot the charge the corkage fee for a whole case of wine we brought in. If you expect a full-service style like a wedding reception, I guess you have to work with the boss a little earlier ...“

“So far the best food ever!“

“My girlfriend and I split a dish because we get too full when we have separate dishes . The employees were kind enough to give extra meat . We really appreciate you guys, we always get treated right here and the food is 100/10! Muchas gracias !!“

“Amazing Pho! 20/10 would recommend! I got the combination pho with well done and rare brisket, tripe and some others. The quality of the noodles are high, cooked to perfection. Springy noodly but not too firm. The broth was exquisite to say the least packed with so much flavor. Each sip is like a flavor blast to the palate. The meat portions are very generous. Tender, flavorful, scrumptious brisket. They’re nice people with amazing food. If you’re craving Pho get your Pho king behind to this place! Because they are the king of Pho! Pun intended!

Vegetarian options: They got everything.

Parking: So much parking you could bring your entire family.

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s the first one to the left so it’s easy to access. With two openable doors.“

“I rarely write reviews but I just had a very good experience at Pho Golden Cow yesterday (thursday) that I have to write a review today. Not only the food was amazing but the service was what inspires me to write a review. I came in for lunch and the pho was super yummy and comforting on this rainy day. I was helped by a middle age man, I think his name is Liem if I remember correctly, and I was so impressed with his service. He greeted me so nicely when we came in and even though I kept asking many questions and changed my order, he still happily helped me, explain different types of meat for me, and continue to provide excellent service the whole time. My meal was really good but the service made me feel so warm and at home. I will definitely come back next time for this excellent experience.“
