23 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Bladensburg

“On our way home from visiting Wash DC, we stopped at this place for dinner. It was conveniently located right off the BW Parkway (I-295), in Bladensburg. The restaurant is located at an intersection, in a small old building. It looked like a converted gas station. The parking lot is very small, maybe 10-12 spaces. Inside, the dinning room is also small with limited seating. People that came in after us had to wait for a table. The menu is very simple. The only appetizer was cha gio or egg roll. The entrees included pho, bun Bo hue, and 2 rice dishes (chicken or pork chop). The pho came in 3 sizes: children, small, and large. I got a large #5 pho tai nam. Both my wife and daughter got the bun Bo hue. The food came out hot after a short 5 minute wait. Both noodle soups came with a good amount of noodles and meat. Both broths were flavorful and authentic tasting. My wife was impressed with their bun Bo hue, noting that it was better than her own homemade version ( which I never heard her say before). We left this place happy and full.“

“Possibly the best food I’ve ever had in the DMV meets incredible service. They didn’t have the dessert we wanted, so they comped us the one we chose instead. Also, as someone who is sensitive to gluten, dairy, corn, and peanuts, eating out is often extremely tricky and limited, but I was able to choose from maybe 70% of their menu, which is super impressive. Great spot if you have dietary restrictions and want a lot of options.Just a note, you definitely want a reservation. This place is busy for a reason!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-, dairy-, and nut-containing options are clearly labeled. Ask about other restrictions if you have them.“

“The ambiance and food was immaculate! Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and made appropriate food recommendations for our party. I enjoyed the Shrimp Thermidor as a starter and Cumin Lamb as my entree. They were both delectable, I can't say one was better than the other. I'm ready to go back!“

“Generally everything was good, I just wasn't as happy as I'd like to be for spending about $50 pp with tip for a beer, dinner, and shared appetizers. I will try to visit again and try the pho. Service was relatively quick. The place is very small and won't seat partial parties. It got quite crowded so be prepared.“

“I have been following these guys since they were a food truck parking behind Kmart in Annandale. So nice to see them expand with such a prime location. Parking is free on the weekends around the corner. Lots of comfortable seating outside. I had the OG Pork Belly on Roti --- Great seeing you Danny.“

“Great Vietnamese in DC! I got the Fresh Summer Rolls and Grilled Lemongrass Chicken Rice Plate for $22. The Summer Rolls were really good and great quality. Came with a yummy thick peanut sauce that complemented the lightness of the rolls well. The lemongrass chicken was very good and had a satisfying flavor. The rice with it was good, you can’t go wrong with rice. I don’t know why, but there was also large cucumber, tomato, and lettuce pieces that came on the plate. I ate those separately, but the carrots and onions there went well with the chicken. The service was extremely fast. I was talking with this older lady who said the Pho Ga cured her illness, and before I knew it, my food was here. Great service and the atmosphere is nice but it was a bit crowded by the front desk. Overall, though, I give it 5 stars and will be back to try the Pho Ga.“

“Honest, clean, delicious. That's how i'd describe this Pho place. The pho broth is very crisp yet rich. But on top of the excellent food, I was very impressed by the attention to detail by our server and the overall honesty of the restaurant. The tip is calculated pre-tax (one of my pet peeves is restaurants calculating tip post tax). Will definitely visit again in the future!“

“Funny enough, this place was mentioned in a Reddit thread for hidden gems in DC. The food was highly praised, and the original poster gave a special shout out to the website (I highly recommend checking it out; it’s seriously a delight).This was enough for me to check it out for myself, and it was absolutely fantastic. Super reasonable prices, the girl who made my food was so sweet, and everything I had was delicious. I got a pork belly bahn mi and chicken spring rolls with peanut sauce.Solid food, solid experience ?“

“Hien was so welcoming and funny! We had amazing food in a relaxed atmosphere at an amazing price. I highly recommend the Vietnamese food options! We will definitely visit next time we are in DC.Kid-friendliness: We had four children with us and they accommodated their pickier palates without missing a beat.“

“Discovered this gem while searching for pho, and I'm amazed I hadn't noticed it before. The pho was fresh and flavorful, especially enjoyed the veggie option. The ambiance was relaxed, with enjoyable background music. It's clearly popular, as several guests arrived shortly after me. While I didn't have a drink, it appears they offer a selection of beer and wine only. The spacious layout makes it ideal for groups.“

“Today I was in this place, and my first impression when I saw the beef soup I ordered was that it was very good, abundant and light, we also ordered some wings with the sauces on the side, and the frying of the wings was on point, crispy and juicy inside, it has been a very good experience, pleasant music and very good service. We hope to return soon.“

“My boyfriend and I have become regulars at Pho 72! All the dishes we've tried have been consistently very good (the pho broth is amazing — I usually get the Pho Tai Chin Nam) and the family that runs it are friendly and attentive. This is a yummy, reasonably priced, low-key place to grab dinner in Columbia Heights. Highly recommend!“

“Came to check out this spot for the Hong Kong waffle. Unfortunately they don't serve it anymore. ( they should remove it from their website). So we try the pho and the rice dish instead. U gotta order first then take your seat. Menu pretty simple. Phô , rice or noodle dish or bánh mì. Everything was fresh. They charge 50 cent for to go container.“

“Everything was flawless. The food was topnotch. The atmosphere was incredible. The service was second to none. The prices were incredibly reasonable. The crispy mushroom pancakes aren't a lot of food for the money compared to other dishes which give you basically two meals but the taste is worth every penny.“

“Amazing meal and evening! We had Alex as our waiter and he was so passionate about the food and gave great recommendations of plates and they did not disappoint! The flavors were fresh and clearly made with such love and care. We were seated outside on a beautiful spring evening and everything was fantastic. Topped off with flan made by his mother we will absolutely comeback and counting the days!“

“Great food! We love coming here for lunch, the pho and vermicelli meat dishes are delicious the best in DC and you can’t beat the service. Everyone who works there is so kind and always has a smile. Definitely will be back, it is one of our favorite spots!“

“I don't come to bars often. This place may be changing that. We were part of a large group. Tons of orders for drinks and goods being placed. The staff was very professional and fast. I'm not sure how they got everything right. The fried Rice with shrimp eggs and corn was delicious. Too many places over cook fried rice. Not an issue here. Run of the mill beers like Corona , Stella and Heineken are quite affordable as well.“

“We ordered the beef meatball pho and pork chop with rice. Pho was not bad. It wasn't too strong on the msg but also wasn't too clear. Rice dish wasn't too salty and pretty balanced. Food quality was ok. Price was also ok for the portions that they gave us. Overall, not bad experience 4/5“

“I’ve gotten pho to go here a few times and every time it is delicious! The broth has a great flavor and they give a lot of noodles and shredded chicken. The crispy spring rolls are delicious and the staff is very friendly. It’s a little pricy but definitely one of my new favorite pho spots in the area.“

“after grabbing my fav coffee at Little Hat Coffee down the street (inside Streets Market) i stopped by for lunch! phonatics pleasantly surprised me! the pho broth was rich and truly delicious. the portions were generous, and i found myself unable to finish my meal. their summer rolls were a great size, four huge half-rolls. the place offers a decent amount of seating, and the staff is really nice and attentive just a heads-up: payments are made at the counter!“

“Excellent and friendly customer service with delicous fresh pho. I stumbled upon this little place randomly as I like to explore little side streets. Their location is near the Wheaton Metro. A very cold day arrived and I didn't want to cook so enter Pho cravings. They did not disappoint and were extremely willing to accomodate me as I literally came in about 5 minutes before closing. Brought the pho home and it was delicious. I followed the recommendations of other reviews and ordered: Saigonese Golden Crepe - Banh Xeo Hue Spicy Lemon Grass Beef Soup - Bun Bo Hue Fried Imperial Rolls Pho Tái*, Gầu . slices of eye-of-round steak and fat brisket Everything was delicious (especially the crepe...though it is big). Will definitely be back to try the Bahn Mi and other non-Pho items.“

“This should not be take out or delivery. They use cheap containers that have to be kept straight 90 degrees any tilts will make your pho spill. Best eat at the restaurant for optimal experience. With the carryout container spilling due to tilting was a messy affair.“

“Fast service. Great if you're in a time rush but still want some Asian food. Food is decent and there's a nice variety of Vietnamese food. The food always comes hot whenever I come to this restaurant. The seating is fairly close to each other but there is a lot of seating. The restaurant is pretty clean. Overall, would recommend.“
