50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in Seattle

“Great ambiance, nice food, good drinks.“

“Do yourself a favor — EAT AT LOTUS POND. (1) Carpool to Lotus Pond. The more the merrier. (2) Appetizers: You can’t lose. Everything is good. Me? I eat the Imperial Rolls. Get two orders of the egg rolls aka Imperial Rolls — one order won’t be enough for 2 people. Start there, you’ll be very happy. Also order the pork belly on the skewers please, No regrets. It’s very good. (3) Noodle Soups. Every bowl Is a winner. Pho is great, no question there. However, you absolutely must eat the SEAFOOD with special Red Noodle. (4) Early enough during the day, drink the Viet Ice Coffee. (5) Too bad they don’t have enough staff/hands to make the BANH CUON but they make up for it in many ways. Try everything on the menu. I’m not a relative. I don’t get money or fame for recommending Lotus Pond. I just know authentic good food when I see and eat it. Try it. You will leave with a full, joyous stomach … you will be very satisfied. Happy eating!“

“We stumbled upon this little Cafe while waiting for a train to come in. we had the Bánh mi drip! Absolutly amazing,so much flavor!!! the broth to dip in was so yummy! I'd drive the 4 hrs to eat here again!“

“The food is so delicious 🫰I love it.If you come to seattle you must try it .“

“Hands down, the best pho you’ll find in Seattle! This place is killing it! I’m incredibly lucky to live in the neighborhood and I’ve been coming here since the day they opened. We were one of their first guests in those early days and eat here so much the owners know me by name! If I were qualified to give food awards, this place would win my 2024 Best of Seattle award! 🥇👏🏻✨ Ps. They do not accept reservations - it’s first come first serve. Around 6pm, they go on a waitlist and a line starts to form outside. Don’t bother calling to get on the waitlist - they won’t even do that for me! You have to show up in person to get on the list.“

“Really good sandwiches. They take a bit of time to make so order a bit more ahead of time than you'd think, assume the pickup time listed on delivery apps will be at least 5 min too soon, or visit on a nice day when you won't mind the wait.“

“Very happy that we went to this restaurant for our pho cravings! The location is (sadly) a bit dodgy but once you are inside you will be greeted by the lovely staff. Pho tasted like my mom‘s: cooked with a lot of love. 💕 if you are around this area you should definitely try this place! Highly recommended 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“10/9/2021 Recommend? Yes. I arrived right after they open with my luggage because I was starving from my long train ride in from Whitefish, MT. The server was super nice. He got me hot tea and banh cam to settle in with. I ordered bo bia (autumn rolls), vegan pho, and roasted pork banh mi (to go). The banh cam had a thick dough and it was huge. Two of those could've been a whole meal. Everything I ordered was delicious and they were so kind! My favorite was definitely the banh mi. It was even good after I had refridgerated it. The best part was the vegan butter and vegan pate. I absolutely loved it, best vegan banh mi I've had.“

“awesome food and great,very friendly service!“

“We have come here for many years. It been awhile since we came back. We like their new menu looks like it been recently updated. We ordered our usual of: -Vietnamese Sweet & Sour Catfish Soup -Catfish in Clay Pot/Stew -Rice Today we also tried: -Crispy Oysters -Salted Fish Fried Rice -Three Color Dessert -Thai Dessert It wasn't too busy today, we got a table right away for a family of our. The servers were nice and friendly. Our desserts were bought out first, and soon after the main dishes. Our usual dishes is the tasty as usual. Our favorite as a family is the fried oysters. Our young kids liked it best with the sweet sauce (not spicy). The sizing of the oysters are large and it tasted excellent. Overall, it was a wonderful dining night with the whole family. We will be back as usual! We highly recommend this place! They got some of the dishes we love that keeps us coming back for more!“

“Order at the door and the seat you. Party of 6 or more they auto charge gratuity incase you aren’t anticipating it. Food is great. They don’t come to check on you but probably due to covid/social distancing. Easy atmosphere. Parking is very limited so be prepared.“

“I stopped by here for some quick food before a Seahawks game, and I was incredibly surprised by how good this place was
I got the Grilled Pork Bahn Mi, and what surprised me the most was how cheap it was. Compared to how expensive everything around me was, the fact that I could get this for as low as $10 instantly drew my eye. Considering this price, I honestly wasn't expecting much, but this actually turned out very good

I've had a bunch of pork bahn mi's in the past, and this definitely ranks up there as one of the best.
The baguette is super crispy on the outside, yet it didn't feel chewy or hard to get through like you'd often feel with bread that is too hard. Despite the crispiness it was still not too difficult to bite through and get through both sides of the sandwich
I loved the amount of mayo slathered across both sides of this. When making a sandwich like this, sauce is exceedingly important because the risk of making the sandwich feel dry is high. However, in this case, it added to the flavor a lot

The vegetables as a part of this were really good too
The highlight of this sandwich was the pork. It was in relatively large circular pieces scattered throughout, and was abundant throughut the sandwich. This pork was cooked really well, super fatty and flavorful, and you could tell it was recently grilled because of the char marks on the outside - which just added to that grill flavor. It was fantastic

For the price, you really can't beat how good this was, and it was pretty filling as well

Overall, a tiny place that offers an incredibly good version of this classic sandwich. 9/10“

“Menu is awesome, quick services and good food!“

“To-go Pho $20 (steak + brisket). Super fresh, clean, and lots of meat. I hate when pho comes with hardly any meat but Pho Viet Anh has LARGE portions. The pho broth is on the sweeter side if you prefer that style. Everything is clean and nicely packaged - One size pho.“

“Shattuck and Tristan were great!“

“Love it here! Great neighborhood spot. Service is quick, everyone is really friendly, great casual vibe. The food is good value for the price and they have the best wings I’ve had in Seattle (fish sauce wings specifically).
We have liked everything we have tried on the menu“

“Whole in a wall Authentic Vietnamese cuisine. Not downtown Seattle kind of menus which u have to pay additional $ for extra meat ! 😂“

“Delicious brisket pho for lunch today! Server was nice and service was great!“

“Good foods. Will be back if I’m in town“

“super small hole in the wall, no seating but very, very helpful service. I didn't know a lot of what was being offered and the person behind the counter was very helpful. he gave me recommendations and explained what was in each item, the food was delicious and the chicken wings are divine!! very affordable pricing!! 10/10 recommend!!!“

“Best broth in the Rattle. Lemon grass chicken was perfect and the tea was great. No complaints. Cheap as chips“

“Try the Obama Noodle...it’s really good!“

“❤️❤️❤️ best sandwich best price!!“

“Best Pho in Cap Hill! You can taste the love in the broth. Have been going to this place for years since it was a cross the street. So excited that they re-opened in this new space. The atmosphere is great and always wonderful service run by the family.
You must try the pork fresh rolls, they are incredible! Relativity inexpensive prices for Seattle. Can't speak highly enough about this place!“

“A very interesting blend of flavors. Ive tried about 1/4th of the menu now, and theres a lot of things ive had here ive never seen or tasted anywhere else.

I honestly couldnt define the genre here, other than to say its a fusion of American and Asian items, in the most delicious of ways.“

“love this place! fresh and clean“

“Best place for lunch in Georgetown hands down“

“Recently tried it cause it was close to my home and it is quickly become a stable of my diet. Good for for very reasonable prices“

“Low key and authentic. Good spring rolls, pho, and rice dishes.“

“I loved this small place on Beacon Hill. I was visiting from Detroit and saw it as I walked from the train to where I was staying. I went in an hour before they opened without realizing it, and the friendly owner invited me to come back at lunchtime. I'm glad I did. The owner greeted me again warmly. I had veggie pho with tofu and a Vietnamese coffee, both absolutely delicious. The servers were friendly as well. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Not much atmosphere, but very friendly, satisfying food, and reasonable price. If I'm in the area again, I will definitely go back.“

“I absolutely love this place! Total hole-in-the-wall (as the best places are) and incredible food. Family-owned! They have online ordering for pickup or delivery, AND btw if you’re vegetarian, they have a vegetarian broth for their pho so 💯 just saying. Pictured here are the 5-spice chicken banh mi, cole slaw salad, and some home-brewed Thai iced tea 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 Also, I normally get grandma le’s egg rolls and oh my god 🤤 highly recommended!“

“My absolute favorite! I have a slight obsession with bahn mi sandwiches and Pho Aroma has my favorite - perfect ratio of meat to bread to veggies. I also love their rice dishes and recently tried the crispy noodle stir fry which is my current obsession! The owners are also the absolute kindest people and it’s just a really cozy places to have a meal.“

“Pho Vietnam deserves to be a contender for one of the best pho cafes in North Seattle. After spending the entirety of my life eating pho around the greater Seattle area; this is the most consistent, no-nonsense, soul-affirming bowl of soup I've found, by a large margin.

The nuoc cham that arrives with their egg rolls is made in house with pepper flake and grated carrot. They do not add corn syrup. It should also be noted, the carrot is an extremely well thought out way to balance the fishy-acidic sauce.

Their chili paste at the table is also house made with what seems to be palm sugar. It is delicious. Use one of the small sauce dishes they provide table side and pair it with their hoisin.“

“And great Vietnamese food.“

“im vietnamese was craving viet rice dishes and been looking for a good viet restaurant. Found Pho My Chau 2; one of the most legit and best vietnamese places in fedway.“

“We visited Aroom with our family and absolutely loved the experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the coffee is excellent, and the interior is very stylish and thoughtfully designed.

The service truly stands out attentive, kind, and genuinely welcoming, which makes you want to come back again. A special thank you to the team: our little son accidentally spilled his hot coffee, and they immediately made a new one for him. That level of care really touched us.

Wishing you great success and continued growth in your business. We will definitely be coming back - Aroom has become one of our favorite coffee shops.“

“I live close to here and come here often. Everything I’ve ever had has been really good to great. The calamari is fantastic. Dont expect them to wait on you hand and foot. They give you the menu take you oder after a few minutes and will fill your water if they see its low. They are not gonna ask you if everything is good every 5 minutes. Great place to come eat in a very chill environment“

“friendly staff, great coffee. Will definitely be back for more.“

“We regularly visit this spot for a pho lunch or dinner :) The owner is always very friendly and kind. The pho is very tasty. If you’re in the mood for extra veggies, try the “vegetarian pho” (which includes broccoli, cauliflower, carrots) & add meat for a couple bucks extra! Great value, taste, service & hospitality.“

“What a wonderful spot and a perfect stop after visiting Kubota Garden. The dining room was clean and spacious, and the service prompt and friendly. The bun bo hue was delicious and a welcome change from the salt bomb broths I’ve become accustomed to from Vietnamese noodle soups in Seattle. The flavors were nuanced and not too heavy or salty. I especially enjoyed the tender pork knuckle and the (homemade?) small meatballs flecked with what tasted and appeared to be makrut lime leaves. An easy place for kids - my 5 year old slurped up his plain pho.“

“service was excellent. food was superior. highly recommend“

“I was going to buy a teriyaki next door but it was closed so I decided to check this place out. I ordered the grilled chicken with rice and it was delicious. I also ordered the tofu banh mi and it was better than Saigon deli in my opinion. I will go back again to try other food.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — Ramie is Vietnamese cuisine, reimagined.

Not your typical pho, bánh mì, or vermicelli stop — this is heritage transformed into art. Chefs Trinh & Thai Nguyen spin tradition into something new: small plates with big personality, seasonal ingredients, and artistic plating that feels like storytelling on a plate.

✨ Atmosphere & Vibe
Modern yet intimate. Capitol Hill energy with warmth: chic décor, cozy lighting, curated cocktails, and plating that feels like fine art. Small enough to feel personal, upscale enough to feel special.

🍴 Food & Menu

Not a huge menu, but curated for different palates.

🌿 Vegetarian options are clearly available.

Bold flavors, innovative twists — this is Vietnamese food through a creative, elevated lens.

Happy Hour (5–8 PM) = oysters, bánh tiêu hollow bread, pickles, seasonal bites.

👨‍👩‍👧 Kid-Friendly? Best for adventurous eaters and teens. Small plates and creative plating may not hit with very young kids, but the vibe is welcoming.

♿ Wheelchair Accessibility Accessible entrance + seating, attentive staff.

🚗 Parking Capitol Hill = limited street parking. Paid lots or rideshare recommended.

✨ Insider Tip
Book a reservation. The menu is evolving, so try a new plate each visit — and don’t miss the cocktails, which are as refined as the food.

Ramie isn’t just dining — it’s Vietnamese culture redefined for Seattle’s future. A must-visit for anyone who wants to taste heritage with a modern edge.

“Oh my god! Where has this place been all this time?! Amazing food, huge portions, and great prices. On top of that, they don’t ask for tips, which I really appreciate. It instantly became one of my favorite spots in Seattle. I ordered twice in the same day! Thanks so much for the hard work.“

“Broth is always great and fresh ingredients always used, never ever disappointed here. The outside isnt the most inviting looking (barred for safety I assume) however don’t be shy. Inside is clean, fully equipped with all your soup needs lol. Owner is a really kind Uncle. Recommend for sure. 😊“

“I’m a bit of a pho snob (shout out to SF’s Kevin’s Noodle House #2 - iykyk) and this is hands down the best pho I had had in Seattle. Broth was robust. Noodles were the best consistency. Extras were fresh. And the staff was incredibly welcoming. I made the mistake of going to A Nam Pho on 35th. Never again!! You can feel the care that goes into a plate of food here. 10/10 recommend.“

“Good banh mi

Bread and quality of meat were both good. My only complaint was that there's too much meat, but most people probably like that.
It's got a typical low-key Asian restaurant atmosphere. In other words, it's not polished nor pretty. But the food is good.

The coffee was good, though a bit heavy on the condensed milk.
There's free jasmine tea and chili oil set out.“

“Delicious food and friendly service“

“Vietnam House is one of those places that feels like a weekend family gathering — no frills, just the comfort of well-executed classics. Their specialty is Cơm Tấm (broken rice), and the menu gives you plenty of ways to experience it.

The go-to order is the Cơm Tấm Sườn Nướng ($11.99) — tender grilled pork chop over fluffy broken rice, simple and satisfying. For something richer, the Cơm Tấm Sườn Bì Chả ($13.25) adds shredded pork and steamed egg for a full trio of textures. If you’re hungry, the Cơm Tấm Đặc Biệt ($14.99) stacks pork chop, shrimp cake, egg, and meatloaf — a full Vietnamese sampler on one plate.

What makes this spot stand out is the portion size and value. Plates run $12–15, come loaded with rice, pickles, and sides, and leave you more than full.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Come here for hearty broken rice combos when you’re craving comfort food without any pretense. It’s not fancy, but it’s exactly what you want from a neighborhood Vietnamese joint.“

“The number 25 Chicken Pho (rice noodles with chicken in chicken broth) was the best thing I have ever had. It was flavorful while still being simple. It wasn't super filling, and my mom and I determined that the medium and large sizes are mainly a difference in broth, not noodles. So consider adding extra noodles to get more food. Our server was very nice and easy to talk to. The food came our fast and was hot and fresh without being too hit that you couldn't eat it. The atnosphere feels comforatble and similar to a hole in the wall place, though it was open and had plenty of room. 10/10 recommend, I wish I lived closer so I could go more often. I didn't get a photo before I ate it all, but here's my after to at least show the broth :)“
