50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Covington

“Everything I've ordered from here has been delicious. I would just say if you get a sandwich make sure you eat it within an hour or the bread starts to get so crusty it kind of grates up your mouth. The sandwich tastes so good that you'll probably just keep eating it and deal with the pain.“

“I had lunch with two friends here today and it was soooo good! We had the spring rolls with grilled chicken, Mongolian beef, wonton soup, and the salad bowl with grilled chicken. ALL amazing!“

“Love the food here, service is great and easy modify foods“

“The best Pho place in Kent WA and the Seattle WA area. The food is amazing. Other places that I have been have been mediocre. I have been to at least 6 places in the Kent Seattle area.“

“I am a huge pho connoisseur and been to many spots around the great Seattle area (mostly south in federal way, Kent, Renton) and this is my new favorite spot. Service is always great, clean and modern interior, and the pho is 🔥🔥. Price is fair compared to other spots, and if you come with friends and family they have a variety of other options like phad thai and teriyaki. Highly recommend if you are in the kent-east hill area!!

To those bigger eaters like me (I go all out on pho) the large bowl is definitely a Large bowl with ample portions of everything: more noodles, meat, and soup. And again the service is always amazing and kitchen staff are always on point with timing and quality.“

“Veggie pho! OMGoodness so good! Loved this meal!“

“wow, traditional dishes are good, but fusion dishes are better in my opinion. Fusion dishes show the creativity and outside the box thinking. Tried my first sandwich today and will be returning to try others. If you love Binh Mi this is the spot.“

“My office ordered here for a big to-go order on a cozy, rainy day, and they were so accommodating! An order for 7 people was ready in 20 minutes and packaged securely. We ordered Pho Tai and Pho Nam, grilled pork Bahn mi, a bunch of egg rolls, and the sweet and sour pho, which was amazing if you like to explore flavors, dont shy away from it! All of our food was great, there were no complaints from anyone. 10/10 for these guys, a true hidden gem in Tukwila, WA! Fair warning: their chili oil is no joke. I would buy jars of this stuff. Edit: this place is under new management so this review is no longer accurate“

“My favorite pho spot so far. I love that there are vegetables in the soup base in addition to the veggies you can add on your own. Staff is friendly. I would try the steak pho either Korean noodles or glass noodles, both are good. I love extra bean sprouts, jalapeños,and spicy chilli sauce! Expect to pay $15-20 per person“

“Had an amazing experience at Renton Bistro! I came specifically to try their Vietnamese food and ordered the grilled pork chop with broken rice (cơm tấm đặc biệt), and it did not disappoint.

The pork chop was perfectly grilled—juicy, flavorful, and slightly smoky with that authentic Vietnamese taste. The broken rice was soft and paired so well with the pickled veggies, fresh garnishes, and fish sauce. Every bite felt balanced and comforting, just like a true Vietnamese home-style meal.

Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe was clean and welcoming. If you’re craving authentic Vietnamese cuisine, Renton Bistro is definitely worth a visit. I’ll absolutely be back to try more dishes!“

“The atmosphere is great, they’re very courteous as you walk in the door. Big Ben, is what I call. The owner, absolutely amazing person and the oxtail is outstanding! Two thumbs up.“

“I had the beef teriyaki and my husband had kaee Mao dinner soo delicious! Very kind people who are invested in your experience and making sure you enjoy the food they put their heart into. If you enjoy this type of food at all, this is a must to try!“

“My favorite phoody place in Seattle/Renton area, super friendly staff, amazing food & clean“

“The peaceful atmosphere here combined with delicious food makes the meal memorable.“

“I've been to almost every pho place in kent and renton and this might be one of my favorites already. The server was nice and let me sub chicken instead of shrimp in the spring rolls, which were way more affordable than some places! An appetizer should be exactly the price of these appetizers, I'm pleasantly surprised at the prices here. I truly hope they don't go up anytime soon. The chicken pho was also delicious (i asked for grilled chicken). Overall a pleasant restaurant, and I will be back for sure! I will say one small critique, is there was no music playing.“

“I loved the food. Even when I spilled my tea, they cleaned the table for me and prepared a new one and didn’t change the price . The people also had really good energy having a conversation with us talking with a lot of enthusiasm and also being funny.“

“I recently dined at Anchovies and Salt, and I must say, it was an amazing experience! The food was absolutely delicious, showcasing the best of Vietnamese cuisine with a unique twist. Each dish was flavorful and beautifully presented, making it hard to choose a favorite. The environment of the restaurant was inviting and cozy, with a vibrant atmosphere that made for a perfect dining experience. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. If you're in Seattle and craving some incredible Vietnamese food, I highly recommend checking out Anchovies and Salt. You won't be disappointed!“

“Alway love banh beo chén , bánh xèo , canh chua cá kh to , many many good food here“

“This is a hole in the wall type place. Idk why people are expecting 5 star location-this isn't that. You want 5 star establishment with 1 star prices? Yall trippin. What it is-is a family establishment. Inflation is high so of course you gotta go with the times. The food is always on par, catering is amazing-prices are always lower than any other vietnamese shop. Banh mi is about $7-8 bucks which is nothing compared to some that charge upwards to $11-15. The pho hits at home when I add my chili oil to it. The vermicelli bowl is fresh, delicious and ginormous for under $20. Love My and her family!“

“Came for lunch, was seated right away and brought water. Ordered Bun dac biet, and spring rolls. Amazing food, and great service. I highly recommend. (A little sad I didn't order the pho, everyone was getting that and it looked and smelled great!)“

“Always clean always good!“

“Banh mi was great not what i ordered but still good, got a lychee slush i could tell it was not the real deal. Not bad but not great. Banh mi for sure legit. Maybe their other drink would be better. Will try again next time. No rr for customer a cute tiny hole in the wall. Good vibe and energy.“

“First time trying Vietnamese food, loved it! The gỏi cuốn chicken spring rolls were fresh and excellent, and the bánh mì chicken sandwiches were really delicious with great flavors and crunch. Food overall was top notch. Thanks for an awesome meal.“

“Highly recommend Hot Pho! Fast friendly service and good size portions!“

“As a preface, im a fatty with a love hate relationship with bahn mi. Grandma used to make it for me as a kid but everytime ive gone out for it, its just not the same. Usually the bread Explodes on contact, and I wear the sandwich.

Not the case here. Not only is the bread softer (not soggy, soft), its Way richer in taste than I EVER get 😭

Not only that, but usually I order 2. Im currently staring down the barrel that is my second bahn mi, and although I have the strength to finish, im absolutely going to need a nap. These puppies are Yuge.

Also, generally I just skip reading the menu and order as there's not much variation. Here, I got EGG IN MY BAHN MI!!! And its PHENOMENAL. Literally ruined every other spot ive ever been to.“

“Pho Lam is currently my fav pho spot in the kent area and ive tried almost every vietnamese restaurant within a 10 minute drive from Willis st exit. They make spring rolls with chicken which I like. I've had better pho broth, but only because I've been to like 50 pho restaurants. The server was very nice as always, and i quite enjoyed my meal :)“

“The owners are stand-up human beings. My loved one was homeless in the Auburn area one winter, and they consistently treated him with kindness and genuine concern. I have never forgotten their compassion. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant.“

“go to place for my item Pho#15. Bang for your buck!“

“hola amigos. I'm gonna miss my favorite plate, p2 with chicken .“

“Good service good food friendly staff“

“A total gem hiding in plain sight. Appa Sushi is easy to miss — it's tucked into a strip off a busy road (just off 516) — but don't let the unassuming location fool you. The service is spectacular. We rolled in mid-ride on the Green River Trail, and when we mentioned we wanted to eat in the nearby Riverview park, the staff were absolutely delighted to help and packed our lunch to go without missing a beat.

One warning: the portions are ENORMOUS. Thinking we'd be starving after biking, we each ordered our own bento box — big mistake, we could easily have split a single one. They pile on the rice, and I swear there was half a chicken in the chicken teriyaki. Super-nice staff, quick and easy service, and food that way over-delivers for the price. I can't wait to go back.“

“Food super good , so much interesting“

“Pork and shrimp crispy rolls“

“You guys ruined everything as customers.
They no longer serve real pho noodles because of you guys! Yes! You!!!
What do you mean “Pad Thai noodles”?
What do you mean they don’t have “regular pho noodles” here.
They literally put up a sign months ago saying they had two different types of noodles for you to choose?!?
I already had a bad feeling this wasn’t going to end well.
My God—your so-called “regular pho noodles” are actually hủ tiếu / kuteo noodles. Back then, restaurants in the US couldn’t afford fresh pho noodles, so they used hủ tiếu as a replacement. Just because you got used to it doesn’t mean you get to ruin it for everyone else.
Buy a ticket, go to Vietnam, touch some grass, and see what real pho noodles actually look and taste like.
I love this place to death—and I mean it. I’ve been coming here ever since my banker introduced me to it, and only here. Only this place. Because of their noodle options, and because their broth reminds me so much of Southern pho in Vietnam.

You guys are absolutely crazy.“

“3rd time coming here and have always ordered their amazing pho!

Staff is very nice, place is quiet but a good kind of quiet. It's a very comforting place to bring family and friends to eat with.

Never had any problem with parking.“

“Pho Tai never misses, but the Southcenter location? It just hits different. The broth is everything — rich, clean, and layered with flavor in a way that feels like it’s been simmering with real care. You can taste the depth in every sip, and that’s what makes or breaks pho… and they absolutely nail it here.

The noodles are cooked perfectly, the meat is fresh and tender, and everything comes together exactly how you want it. But honestly, it’s that broth that keeps me coming back. For some reason, Southcenter just does it better.

If you know good pho, you know the broth is the soul — and this spot gets it right every single time.“

“Such a great spot! The owner is incredibly kind and generous, which makes the whole experience feel so welcoming. The special fried rice is honestly the best, flavorful and perfectly cooked every time. And the egg rolls are delicious too. Also, super quick!“

“This place is fantastic! It's more of a sandwich shop than a deli but they do have some grab and go items as well. I got the grilled pork sandwich and it was huge and I can never eat the entire thing but I nearly did because it was so delicious. The bread is fantastic, they give you like an entire french loaf, the meat was juicy and the vegetables were fresh. I'll definitely be coming back!“

“no frills pho place that has really clean & yummy pho! surprisingly the noodles were the star of the show, broth and meat was also good but the noodles were perfectly chewy- not overcooked but not undercooked

their chili oil is also spicier than most but very yummy“

“We have been coming here for a while now. The owners here are so kind to me and my kids. We love the burgers and fries here. The menu spans from burgers, to pho, to Korean, to fish and chips. Great place to swing by to pick some comfort food if you don’t feel like cooking dinner.“

“Decent broth (does have MSG) , they do jave other MSG free options ok the menu. The friend rice can use some help bit overall it's decent.“

“Sandwich (Banh Mi) is delicious“

“Love the poker room and the food is fantastic
I was thinking about starting a poker vlog and was wondering if management would let me film there I’d call but it’s something I’d rather discuss here or via email if you guys have one“

“Had the absolute best drinks there! Beyond thankful for the recommendation I received that brought me here. The employees were pretty slammed with orders but were so kind and worked quickly and efficiently to get us our order. Now more than ever, I understand patience is key and honestly so much more necessary than most believe. I comment the team at Mia and More for filling our cravings. Would absolutely visit again and have already recommended to others.“

“Ordered a pork Banh mi it was good, wished it had few more strands of cilantro but otherwise it was pretty good. Ordered Thai iced tea and a taro bubble tea, both great! I wasn’t a fan on their broth, I usually get flank meat but they only have steak. Will be back for more Banh Mi and drinks!“

“Bambu Desserts & Drinks absolutely delivered on the dessert drinks. The chè was refreshing, creamy, and packed with texture. I loved the mix of jellies, beans, fruit, coconut, and shaved ice — every sip tasted layered and fun. The ube ice cream on top was a standout and made the whole dessert feel extra indulgent.

Perfect spot if you’re craving something sweet, cold, and different from the usual boba run. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was that I wished the flavors were just a little richer overall, but I’d still come back again. Great treat to share with friends on a warm day.“

“Okay, so I checked out Pho Saigon in Kent last night. It was pretty busy for a late night spot, which was good. I got the #3 pho and honestly, it was a pretty standard bowl – decent broth, but the noodles were a bit tough and some of the meat was chewy. The veggies were fresh though, which was nice. The atmosphere wasn’t amazing, a little dark and a bit worn down. They have a boba place next door at S Level Tea, and seriously, their Thai tea is way better. Just a note – they only take cash, which is a bit inconvenient.“

“The best in the NW. Good dealers, food, and games. Promotion is the best in town. Why would you play anywhere else??“

“Located outside of Lam's Seafood Asian Market, this place offers to-go only
I tried #2 Roasted Pork Belly. I was imagining crispy pork belly, but it's actuakjy super soft and fatty meat in the sandwich, which was still enjoyable. The full size is big, but mostly filled with pickles and vegetables.“

“I googled Burnett's Pub to check the open time and it showed a permanent closed notification. Does anyone know if this is true?“
