50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in Seattle

“Great ambiance, nice food, good drinks.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“It is wrong that we pretend that the bánh mìis only supposed to be one way. Often folks want to”cheapest best,” or you’ll get one in a sit down restaurant that is beautiful but less than the sum of its parts. I really enjoy Gion because while it may cost a bit more, it’s actually a fair price until you try to finish the whole sandwich. Then you’ll find it’s a great price. But not too big to eat, fresh, thoughtfully balanced, and served warm. Best of all is the bread. The bread is so good that on the rare chance I finish my bánh mìthe next day, the bread still tastes fresher than most sandwiches.“

“Previously a 7 year resident of the community, I was tipped about this restaurant by an area resident 3 years into living in Seattle back in 2011. After the first time ordering, I later became a frequent customer. Definitely, a good place for Pho in Seattle!“

“awesome food and great,very friendly service!“

“One of the best Pho Tai (steak) that I’ve ever had. I’ve lived in Asia for 16 years, so please believe me when I say this Pho is legit!

- fragrant, aromatic, and clear broth. Not too salty like other Americanized Pho.

- TONS of beef (I got extra beef for $6, totally worth it)

- beef thinly sliced and perfect

- thin rice noodles and not overloaded with noodles

- stocking the original rooster sauce

- quick and polite 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!“

“I don't claim to be a banh mi connoisseur, but this was the best banh mi I have ever had. Totally not expected from a little stall in a grocery food court.
I've also had their shrimp fresh rolls and fried fish balls before as well which were also tasty. I'll have to try the pho next.“

“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.“

“Wow. Hands-down one of the best meals I’ve had in Seattle.

Ramie is a perfect balance of sophistication, beauty, balance, and flavor. Every dish honors the Vietnamese cuisine in ways that are comforting and familiar, yet also elevated and unique. It’s truly an art!

Some fan favorites from their menu tonight includes:
- Scallop with salted egg yolk sauce
- Betel leaf beef
- Manila clams with milk toast

Pro Tip: you MUST get dessert. Chef Trinh is one of the best pastry chefs in town, and you don’t want to miss any of her creations.“

“Shattuck and Tristan were great!“

“the waitstaff is very nice and my to go orders are always prepared pretty quickly. i also love the decor in this place and it’s a super chill place to hang out with my friends. the prices are pretty decent for seattle. i like the lychee smoothie, banh mi, and vietnamese coffee here.“

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

“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.“

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

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

“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!“

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

“Went here for the first time a couple days ago and it won’t be my last!! I only got a couple Banh Mis and some spring rolls, but they had so many other yummy foods that I want to try. The best part is that the prices are SO affordable, please go try it out for yourself!“

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

“❤️❤️❤️ best sandwich best price!!“

“Strictly a pho place, no other Vietnamese dishes besides egg/spring rolls. Bare bones atmosphere.
Fried egg rolls pretty basic, I prefer when they are served w lettuce wrap, herbs and veggies.
Pho tai was delicious, very healthy portion of meat. Fast friendly service. Good price. Yum 🥣“

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

“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“

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

“Aroom is the best Vietnamese coffee in Seattle! Even tho they are always busy and full of life they make sure to take care of all their customers! I messed up my online order today and they made my drinks again and didn’t charge me again. Their service is top notch and everyone should make sure to visit aroom when they’re around Seattle or their other location up north!“

“The restaurant provided a very positive experience especially for my friend with whom I dine it here. She was having a hard time and probably hadn't any food in 2 days. Also it was last time I was eating with her so we really wanted something wholesome and homely at late hours of cold night.

I took a veg pho and I really cherished it. The Spring rolls were also great. I was great to see the food left a smile on my friend's face.

Loved the service and ambience. Highly recommend.“

“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 am so glad they reopen literally just across where they were originally!!! they have the ABSOLUTE BEST Veggie Pho. my partner and my friends would get the non-veggie ones and they always say its the best pho around Seattle. We all always finish our order, soup and everything. trust, theyre that girl for sure.“

“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.“

“Oh, some excellent pho at this spot. Got a medium number 13 with the tripe and brisket and I mac’d on it greedily. Nothing like good pho! Sauce is a lighter/sweeter style, not as herbaceous as pho can be.

Service was fast and the guy was nice and a good server. Always happy to find a place I like! Atmosphere is aight. Nothing wrong, but a room of smudged mirrors with pop songs from 2007 blaring can be a little funny, but i liked it overall. 👍❤“

“Best place for lunch in Georgetown hands down“

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

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

“Went to Thein Phat on Rainer ave south for the second time and wasn't disappointed at all.

The pho broth was very good and the spring rolls were just right.

When you have the chance please go and support this local restaurant which is run by a mom and daughter team.“

“Always good service, very friendly. Food is hot and tasty. It’s a treat to eat here.“

“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.“

“100% RECOMMENDED!

It was our first time dining here. The food was DELICIOUS, HEALTHY, and FAST. We are so amazed by the portion, too! We have enough to pack home for a second meal! The veggies were very fresh, the meat was full of flavors, and they had rice, noodles, and bread for different starch choices.

The staff were very friendly! No can complaint at all!

Oh right!! We love it so much that on their ordering machine, the tip suggestions were 3%, 5%, and 8%. Like, brothers and sisters. Can you recall the last time you saw that in an ordering machine? Last time I checked, the ice cream shop and coffee shops suggested 20%, 25%, and 30%. Ughhh, even for this reason only, I'm dead on supporting CrackleMi, not to mention that their food and people are so great“

“Pho is one of the best I have had in Seattle. I personally doubt you will have anything bad here, Spring rolls are always fresh. One of my fav spots!

Quick, fast and delicious 🤤! Service is always amazing 🤩!“

“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. 😊“

“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.“

“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“

“Literally amazing. One of the best banh mi’s I’ve had!!! I got the pork one and you can still taste the grilled char on it (in the best way). It’s incredible flavorful and just as good on day two!

Highly recommend CrackleMi! Can’t wait to try their other dishes.“

“Great with allergies. Very good service and reasonable prices!“

“This is one of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants in Seattle! They also have wonderful coffee. They are fast, the restaurant is always clean, and the food is great. I have posted a copy of the menu as the prices are excellent for the middle of the city.“
