Vietnam 81 Restaurant

Actually Google brought me here. I like Vietnamese food specially rice n vermicelli bowls so thought give it a try. Got nothing but disappointment. The egg rolls were served immediately after ordering. They just heat it up. Not fresh. Too oily n greasy. The vermicelli bowl with charbroiled chicken was tasteless. Same goes with the rice platter that also came with same chicken n soup. The only thing I liked was the soup. It was lunch time n there was 2 only people except us. The servers were busy eating n didn't bother to ask if the food was ok or not. They have bunch of noodles soup in their menu. And the review is good. If i ever come back I'll try the soup on my own risk

If you find this review you have found a gem. This place is great. Vietnam 81 is owned and operated by locals. The food is amazing and the drinks are awesome too. I must recommend #28 which is a wonderful vermicelli dish. The spring rolls are amazing and the smoothies taste like they were picked off of a tree. Fresh and wonderful are the words that come to mind. If you like coffee, order a Vietnamese Coffee. It is amazing. Highly recommend and I always go back.

Best pho around!

Couple times this week they’ve been closed website says they’re open and they don’t answer their phones.

Pho was great! The man who was our server was very sweet as well!

I was in Portsmouth and craving Pho. Google brought me to this place. It's right of George Washington Hwy. We went on Saturday afternoon, and we're seated served right away. It's a basic establishment, nothing fancy and somewhat dated. We ordered the egg rolls for an appetizer. I had the chicken pho and my friend ordered the pork and rice. The egg rolls were good, but a little too greasy. The pho was excellent. I had the small and it was more than enough. My friend enjoyed his meal as well. This will definitely be my pho spot in Portsmouth. Their prices are very reasonable/affordable.

Yaaaa…. This is pretty bad compared to other pho places I’m sorry I tried to like it but the egg rolls scared me the hell away. How did you get them to taste like that? Caused a scene at work spitting them out super greasy too

By far the best Pho I’ve ever had, the beef broth is phenomenal and clear, the tofu is perfectly cooked and all of the vegetables are fresh! I always get the fresh spring rolls as well, which are flavorful and the perfect size. The service is so friendly, and they are a wonderful small business to support if you love amazing Vietnamese food, the best of your life!

The food is fresh and delicious. I ordered the vermicelli noodles, grill pork, and egg rolls. I ate the tempura ? before I could take a picture. You’re greeted once you enter. This place is great!
