Our favorite spot to go to for authentic bun rieu. It’s hard to find good bun rieu in South Florida, but this restaurant delivers! Vietnamese people frequent this establishment all the time, so definitely authentic. Their fried chicken is the best.

I have been eating street food overthere for 2 years and sometimes have problems with sand in the oyster but I didn’t complain. However this time they cheat customers so terribly, I order chicken baby eggs (trung non) but what they gave me is chicken stomach (me ga) with the price of baby eggs, my boyfriend asked why only 4 baby eggs and not lots of baby eggs like before, they said because that chicken didn’t make much baby eggs. They think customers are stupid to know what food they’re serving to us, the chicken stomach is only $4/plate and everywhere in market but chicken baby eggs are $20/plate for the supply only. Don’t cheat the dinners anymore

As soon as I saw the children size chairs and tables outside I knew this place will have authentic food ? I had written down some dishes names from last visit to Vietnam and I was surprised to find them here. The lemon grass clams was on spot. I wanted to try the Phá lấu Bánh mì but the cashier asked me if I liked tripes and I wasn't too sure if I would like it, when I had it in Vietnam it was delicious but I didn't know it was tripe back then ?Anyway, if you want to try authentic flavor this place is recommended, tofu, grilled clams, were excellent too! Maybe venture trying the Phá lấu and let me know if you like it!

Love the crab soup aka bún riêu. I failed to take a few pictures as it was so yummy. If you are looking for an authentic Vietnamese food, this is the place to be.

My friend and I got the Hu Tieu which we both loved and ate all of it. The broth was flavorful & complex and the squid was so tender, not chewy at all. The tofu was the perfect fry texture, but my friend who is Vietnamese wasn't all too impressed with the flavor of the lemongrass. For all those out there reading this, make sure if you go during these cooler nights, the restaurant has limited inside seating. Only 4 tables inside , a lot the seating is outside mind you.

I came to checkout the snails. My mom got the quail. Everything was amazing! My mom is a picky eater and ate the most saying how good it is. The surprising thing is how pricey everything
Late entry - About a year ago or so, this was the place for us to go. They had the best vegan ramen soup around town. Unfortunately, they have taken it off the menu, and hopefully, they'll decide to start making it again. If you go on the weekend or later evening this place is packed. They are worth the drive if you're interested in great tasty ramen. The staff is always friendly and helpful too.

We came here 3 times during the 3 days/2nights stay in Miami (and it took 45 minutes with traffic to get there from Miami). That to say how much I love this place!!Being a street food lover, before getting to Miami, this is a MUST visit place for me!! The hours need to be updated! They now open on Thursday as well!!I always saw a diverse group of people who come here, although the food is very authentic! I has always been cautious with Vietnamese restaurants that are not catered to Vietnamese clients. I would say this place a unique exception.First of all the food, with my many visits, I got to try the following- Oc huong- Chao Long- Hu tieu- Sua bap (corn milk)- Bun rieu- Ngheu hap sa- Tra bi daoI love everything we tried but if I have to pick my top 3 absolute favorite, that would be chao long, oc huong and corn milk! Being Vietnamese I know it is not easy to make this rice soup without a weird smell lol! That could only happen with skill (of course) and fresh pork intestine!!Oc huong (snail) I know it has a fancy name that I don’t remember! The snail is really good and really really fresh! The corn milk and tra bi dao were also amazing! They came in cute little containers with the handlesThe food here reminds me so much of my childhood!! And there are many dishes that you cannot find easily at different parts of the country. I would also love trying trung ga non (young chicken eggs) but my tummy said no! No more room hahaha! I am excited for the next time I come back to Miami! We probably need to stay in Fort Lauderdale instead just because of this place!! And how much Vietnamese street food means to me (bring pieces of my childhood memory back)The restaurant is small but very nicely decorated and offers sittings outside! Even the restroom is nice and clean! We didn’t have to wait long for our food to come out!The service was AMAZING!!! We were talking about how you can tell if the person you are meeting at a restaurant is an owner or not because of their ownership, care and how they treat the clients. The young woman that we met all 3 times we were here was so nice and attentive. She went above and beyond for an amazing experience! If she didn’t tell me about “the owner” I would have thought she was the owner! Kudos to the great team they have here!!

I can't believe I've never reviewed Mama Tofu before. I've been several times whenever I hit up 545 Banh Mi Cafe and Mama YaTai Donut. You can't miss this place because they have the cute little tables and chairs, just like they have in Vietnam! The scooters out front are for show. Hehe. This spot is a legit Asian street food spot.So my Asian friends always talk about Mama Tofu and the authenticity of the dishes. They talk about the snails and lemongrass tofu all the time. Went to a party where someone brought the lemongrass tofu and let me just tell you...it's damn good!!! The tofu is extra crispy and the fresh grated ginger with that sauce is perfection. No joke, I come here specifically for the lemongrass tofu and it never disappoints. If you can, eat it immediately because it's the absolute best when it's fresh and hot.I've also gotten the Bun Rieu, which is a difficult Vietnamese dish to find almost anywhere. Very rare. Kind of like Mi Quang which is another one of my faves. The Bun Rieu is one of their most popular dishes here and my first bite reminded me of my parent's cooking. They use to make Bun Rieu all the time and this was very nostalgic for me.There are so many good items on the menu I need to come back for like the Cua Rang Muoi (Salty-pepper crab), Mi Bo Kho, Hu Tieu, congee, and Rau Ma (pennywort) beverage.

This place is sooooo good! If you’re an exotic food adventurer and love seafood, this is the place to go! Their salt and pepper snail is really tasty, packed with flavor. You have to order their Hai Nam Chicken, we promise you won’t stop after taking your first bite and this may well be the best in South Florida. The Mama fried tofu, calamari, and wings are great apps to start with. The Lemongrass Chicken Joints are unique and very addicting! Remember to pick up their refreshing, homemade juices and teas, can’t find it anywhere else.10/10 recommend, definitely will be back!Instagram: @thesofloduo
