Vietnam 81 Restaurant

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!

I support local business, especially there are very few Viet reataurants here. There are not many residents in this city, most residing in Norfolk Military base. I guess they speclalize "Pho" here, not many options but I cant demand more from a local small restaurant. A married couple runs this family business so I guess it could be little waiting time in busy time. But when I checked in, it was less busy so I got served pretty fast. Recommend. LOVE symbolic "Ao Dai" of Viet culture.

The food is absolutely amazing, authentic, and fresh! I literally came here three days in a row! The owner is so nice and the service is fast. 100/10 recommend! This is the only vietnamese spot that I go to. Vermicelli bowls and the egg rolls are so worth it! Their Taro Milk Tea is heaven sent!

The food was just ok. We ordered egg rolls that were supposed to have shrimp in them and they did not. The owners were very kind.

***Please give a like ??, if you find this review helpful***.. This place is the definition of a hole-in-the-wall joint. Just meaning the location and the overall atmosphere gives that vibe. I didn't find anything that would stand out here enough to say that this place is definitely worth experiencing . I thought everything was just ok ??‍♂️. The parking, the service, the atmosphere, the food, down to the owner and workers were all just ok. Usually places like this excel at something, usually the food is to die for or the staff is very nice. For me, the staff did not engage at all except to take my order and take my money. This is fine but when you see the engagement with certain customers and not others, it sends a red flag. Especially if I'm asking questions and interested in your culture. So for me, everything was just ok and experiencing this place once was enough for me.

Parking: Parking is very limited and right off a busy street.
