If you're in New York and craving Vietnamese food, head to Mekong. Their pho with beef is flavorful, the spicy chicken wings are a must-try, and the spring rolls are crispy perfection. Trust me, you'll be delighted you went – the food is absolutely delicious! ?

This is hands down the best Vietnamese spot in my neighborhood. Great food, great service. Whether I'm dining in or ordering delivery I always go for the beef pho and the crispy spring rolls. Delicious food, and great service.

Be careful when eating here. They have unethical practices. We ate here 2 days ago and the bill was $47 and I tipped $10. okay. 2 days later i receieve a notification from my bank asking "did you tip 40% at Mekong BK?" so aparently they went back to my receipt/bill and changed the tip to whatever they liked. Just based on principles, i hate this establishment and i hope it burns down. If i didnt get a notification from my credit card/bank they would've gotten away with tip changing. screw this place. The food was expensive and the portion was for half a person. the coffee was trash, watered down and unfiltered. and again when you eat here make sure 2 days later they dont steal from you by adding extra tip. they hope you dont catch it.

Celebrating our engagement week at Mekong BK was an absolute culinary delight! Amidst the backdrop of Fort Greene's upscale dining scene, this unassuming gem stole the show for me. Unlike the glitz of Michelin-starred establishments we also visited that week, Mekong BK's charm lies in its dedication to real, flavorful experiences rather than fancy interiors. As a gourmet and someone passionate about food and cooking, I was genuinely impressed by the consistently high quality and freshness of the dishes.From the crisp calamari au beurre, artfully presented over fresh lettuce with a savory lemon pepper sauce, to the tender fillet mignon accompanied by crisp watercress and a special sauce, each bite was a testament to the authenticity and passion behind the menu. The beef tartare, infused with ginger, added a delightful twist that appealed to my taste buds. In the midst of celebrating such a special occasion, Mekong BK provided an unforgettable culinary experience that outshone even the Michelin-starred venues we explored during our engagement week. And let's not forget the Vietnamese coffee – a perfect ending to a week filled with extraordinary flavors. Mekong BK has undoubtedly become a treasured memory in our journey together.
Nestled among the chic restaurants of Fort Greene, Mekong BK stands out as my preferred choice, focusing on a genuine culinary experience rather than relying on flashy interiors and branding. The restaurant's charm lies in its commitment to consistently delivering high-quality food. From the crisp calamari au beurre with its savory lemon pepper sauce to the tender fillet mignon paired with watercress and a special sauce, each dish speaks volumes about the authenticity and dedication to flavor. The beef tartare, featuring a hint of ginger, adds a unique touch to the menu. Mekong BK invites you to savor the real experience, where the focus is on the menu's delightful offerings rather than superficial aesthetics. And, of course, the Vietnamese coffee is a must-try, rounding off this unpretentious yet extraordinary dining experience.

Mekong is probably one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in New York. I highly recommend the pho it has a lot of flavor, and the beef goes best with it.With that you should definitely get the spicy chicken wing because the sauce they put on it is one of a kind. For a side also get the spring rolls. I’ve been a chef for many years and they have mastered making the spring rolls. It’s hard to make them because if it’s not tight when you fry it will bubble explode.Definitely go to Mekong if you want a good meal.
