14 Best Vietnamese Restaurants in Pittsburgh

“My friend and I went here on a whim this last Sunday around noon. I had never gotten food from here before but had heard really good things about her banh mi. There was no one waiting when we came up and we were able to place our order right away. We each got a banh mi and it was $8 each. They only take cash. They had a table available if you wanted to eat your food there which I would've done if we got pho. The banh mi itself was flavorful but not what I was expecting (I was expecting the traditional banh mi with pate and all the usual instead of just the roast pork). I thought the pickled vegetables that came with it were delicious and really balanced out the pork well.“

“A wonderful and delicious addition to the North Hills. I was so excited to try this place out when I hear about them and the food did not disappoint! Food was FRESH, veggies were nice and crunchy and the bread was crusty and delicious. I got a chicken báhn mì. The chicken and it was tender and well infused with the lemongrass flavor. Perfect sandwich to take to the park. Will be back to try the whole menu.“

“Actually perfect pho. I tried the bun bo hue which is a spicy beef pho with round noodles. It was... ACTUALLY PERFECT. Every element was spot on. Optimal spice and salt levels, impeccable broth flavor, good amounts of beef, and plenty of garnish. I went to Bae Bae's cafe earlier today and got a bahn mi and it was... hideous. Soft bread, almost no meat, and doused in way too much spicy mayo. I didn't get a bahn mi here at Maiku but I can already tell based on the quality of the pho that it would absolutely destroy Bae Bae's. Oh and the bahn mi at Maiku is $4 cheaper. The staff was personable and friendly. The environment is very casual which is how you know the food is legit. The food came out in less than 15 minutes. Overall this is easily the best food we've had in Pittsburgh so far.“

“First time visit and had an amazing experience! The food was incredible and the service was quick!Parking: The Strip District has always been a difficult place to find parking..once you finally do though, it's worth it.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps at this establishment like most businesses in The Strip.“

“My brother in law turned my wife and me on to this place for lunch. Everything was made to order and very fresh and delicious. The Pho, Salad and Banh MIi sandwich were to die for (but don't). You are going to want to go back for more LOL! The staff is very nice and the service was great.“

“Pho is my love language! And my favorite place is New Saigon in Dormont. It's a warm restaurant on the corner of Potomac and Glenmore. I usually park on the street but there is also a pay lot behind the restaurant. Take out is fast and the inside booths are cozy. I usually get a hot tea, crispy spring rolls and pho. The deep broth, fresh herbs and crunchy bean sprouts are flavorful and satisfying. Truly one of my favorite places to warm up in Pittsburgh.“

“Overall decent Pho, the broth was flavorful and the portion was big.I also had steamed dumplings and pork wraps. Both came with accompanying sauces.Other than brining my main meal right after receiving my appetizer this place is decent.Not sure if I’d return.“

“I love the uniqueness of Ca Phê. Not only can I get my typical caffeine fix (coffee, tea, espresso, the usual), I can also crush my sweet tooth with yummy bubble tea and satisfy my appetite with tasty Vietnamese food. Get there early to grab a seat. Lunch time has always been a very busy time for them in my experience. I imagine this is a wonderful place for a takeout order.“

“My first time at this spot and I will be back sooner rather than later! I got the beef pho and it was fantastic as well as the fresh shrimp summer rolls! It was a beautiful day so we sat outside! They were some of the kindest souls working there and I'm so happy to support their small women owned business“

“Pho Minh - the best tasting Pho in Pittsburgh! This is a small unassuming restaurant on Penn Ave that is huge in flavor and value. The beef pho (#14) broth is amazing with complex flavors and just the right amount of acidity. We added the entire plate of toppings. The grilled pork with spring roll over rice noodles (#43) was also tasty. A colorful, satisfying, inexpensive and delicious meal. The menu has many options and it is vegan friendly.“

“the spring rolls, pho, and boba were all top notch.“

“Hands down the best Vietnamese food I have had in Pittsburgh. Pho is flavorful, but my favorite is their Bahn-Mi sandwhich. They are massive, use fresh French bread, and are only 8$. Very casual atmosphere but the food is top notch. Don’t miss this place!“

“Love this place so much and the value and quality of the menu is worth the money you spend for it. I have ordered here numerous times from seafood kimchi pho to the pad thai to their calamari appetizer, it's all been really tasty and worth the price. Parking is even lovely as well since there are a lot of spots compared to other options places.“

“Stopped in on my way through town, was craving some pho and this place didn't dissappoint. Service was great, food was great, and the vibe was welcoming. Parking can be a little tricky but standard for the city. I'll definitely go back if I'm ever in the area.“
