“The absolute best bun bue hue and the area. Soup has very good authentic flavor and very good portions. Bun bue hue did not disappoint. Maybe the best bun bue hue I've had in the area. It was my first time here found them on uber eats and went to pick it up cause it was cheaper. Can't wait to try there all beef traditional pho. I've literally been to a majority of pho places in there area this was is top quality. The restaurant name bistro speaks for itself.“

“I have dropped in a few times now. The soups have been fantastic. Tom Yum lives up to being a classic. I also loved the main entrees Pad Thai and Drunken Noodle. The environment is very friendly, clean, and relaxing. The owner, and staff, greet customers with friendly smiles. I can let go of stress with each visit. I am planning more trips to eat my way through the extensive menu and enjoy some great smiles. Great selections available to share dishes.“

“I went to this place for my birthday and I have to say that it was a great experience. My family and I shared the Bún bò Huế (spicy noodles), hoành thánh chiên (fried wontons), Gà xào húng quế (Thai basil chicken), and Bánh hỏi đặc biệt (Vermicelli platter). The food was so good, my favorite was the Bánh hỏi đặc biệt. The owner went around to every table and checked up on everybody and our waters were being refilled constantly. Everyone was really nice. They don't typically do anything special for birthdays, but the owner gave me a free mango sticky rice!! Even after we paid and started to leave, the owner came out to us and recommended the ice cream place next door. I really appreciate family businesses and loved to see that traditional foods are still very accessible to people with dietary restrictions. I am 100% visiting again.Dietary restrictions: Many of their dishes can be made vegan easily and they have a glutton free menu.“

“Best vegan restaurant in Washington DC. I like spending my outing time there. It’s an amazing place the staff are nice and welcoming. I prefer eating mom’s tofu & brown rice with a mango smoothie when I go there. Please try that I am sure you will love it.“

“I did a carry out. Being my first time, I was given recommendations by what looked to be an owner/operator. He was very accommodating as was the young lady present who was doing most of the cooking. The food were fresh and delicious. A huge thumbs up!“

“Ordered take away on line and it was ready when I walked in. Ben searching for a place with a decent vermicelli bowl. This is the best I’ve had in the area. Service was friendly and quick. Online ordering was quick & simple. Definitely will order from here again.“

“Was a unique experience with exquisite cuisine perfectly seasoned with the right amounts of spices. I was blown away by the flavors in yhe food. The environment itself was surreal as if walking into Hello Kitty world with silk curtains for additional privacy for those dining in booths. Otherwise seating is open. Regarding service, you order at the front desk and pick up your own food when ready. However, the clerk is highly knowledgeable about the menu offerings. Highly recommend experiencing at least once.“

“Really cannot say enough good things about Little Saigon. I’ve never had an issue with parking, and always feel comfortable and well taken care of when dining in. The staff are very friendly, and they tend to have fresh flowers on the tables, which is a sweet plus.I always order the chicken pho and the broth is insane. It’s clear and not too oily, you really can’t go wrong. I also have ordered the spring rolls which are again, so so good. Recently ordered the stir fry lemongrass tofu which was such a treat. It’s hard for me to go to other places because I love their pho broth so much.Parking: About ten or so spots in front of the restaurant.“

“The meal was exquisite. The dishes were well presented, creative and delicious as well as showing upon rather generous, dare we say it, North American portions. Our server (and others passing) was/were fantastic but we did sit at the bar and not at a table. This was a choice that we consciously made because we were celebrating our 19th anniversary sans children. Intimacy. A few reviews complain about price or the lack of selections on the menu. All we can say is: post-COVID prices have gone up significantly but that is true for everything that we, as a community, consume today. It might be harder to stomach the price increases for discretionary expenses like a fancy meal. In any event, please do not expect 1980s or even 2019 prices. Secondly, yep, it is pricey, but it is worth every centime. The "limited" menu is what really good restaurants do, not to gouge you, but to spoil you with a core set of dishes that will tantalite the palate of almost every true gourmand. NUE hits the mark rather well. Finally, one kink in the armor, is how food is served today and how waitstaff interact with customers. Partly caused by the clash of generations, e.g., servers and the served may have 30 to 40 years between them, partly because due to COVID the new wave apparently did not get to learn from the OGs who did not return to the hospitality business sector, and is likely partly due to the pace of life in the DMV as practiced by folks with maybe too much money. That service process part needs to be ironed-out, but it is not just an issue at NUE, but at most, if not all, DMV fine food establishments. We, for one, will be back to NUE very soon. We just need to save up for it and we won't have to wait a year.“

“We gave Mari Sushi Bar and Lounge in Herndon a try for my husband’s birthday, and it is now my favorite sushi spot! Everything was incredible-fresh, flavorful, and filling. Hands down the best dynamite roll I’ve had, and even the fish I usually pass over were so good I kept going back to them. The sauces complemented the fish perfectly, I highly recommend giving them a try.“

“Local family operated restaurant in Springfield focuses on pho and banh mi! I ordered the pork belly one and the chicken banh mi to compare the quality of the ingredients. I did notice that they mislabeled one of my sandwiches and received the cold cuts banh mi instead of the chicken banh mi which I was a little bit disappointed about but the sandwich was good. I also got their iced viet coffee with lychee jelly and my goodness was the coffee strong cause it had me up for hours! The use of ingredients from the bread to the vegetables and garnish are definitely high quality. What I admired about the location is the passion I saw from the family to make sure they gave to each customer even though they were a bit backlogged when I was waiting for the food. Ambiance wise they have plenty of tables for you to seat down and enjoy your meal. This is new to me but they have shelves along the counter with what I assume are Vietnamese pastries, definitely will do some research and try some next time. They have a bit to work on the logistics and the layout in the restaurant for better flow behind the counter but I look forward to returning to try other offerings on their menu.“

“Wow, what a beautiful restaurant and the food was so delicious. I love the decor and plants. The staff is outstanding. Their attention to detail is amazing. I loved my dish. I had vegetarian crêpe and a garden roll for an appetizer. Both were delicious. Also, the Vietnamese coffee was yummy.“

“Pho Golden 5 Stars in Springfield deserves five stars for its excellent food, friendly service, and clean environment. The bun bo hue, grilled pork rice, and pho were all delicious, and the staff made us feel welcome. Despite the quiet atmosphere, the service remained attentive. A standout choice for authentic Vietnamese cuisine in Springfield.“

“I went in to order food to go and it was so fast, maybe 10 mins tops before I got my food and was headed on my way. A few other reviews said the people working here have limited English, but the woman who took my order had no problem chatting with me while I waited - she was super nice and welcoming! The menu has an English side and a Vietnamese side that match up, so you can just show them the number of what you want if you ever run into anyone with limited English. I'm not familiar with many Vietnamese dishes, so I'm excited to come back and keep trying more since the tofu dish I got was SO good!Dietary restrictions: The whole menu is vegan“

“This establishment is located in a former Pho restaurant, and I am pleased to dine here because it offers both Vietnamese pho and dim sum. I believe that these dishes cannot go wrong. Additionally, I am very satisfied with the service, and the cleanliness of the place is impeccable.“

“Lantern House is a cute casual restaurant with a festive decor, a surprise find in a strip mall. If you are searching for Vietnamese-style crispy spring rolls, this is the place to go. Their other dishes are good too but the spring rolls really stand out. I give them 4 stars only because I haven't tried many dishes. I order mostly the spring rolls and other appetizers on the menu because I love them so much!“

“Ordered shrimp garden rolls : they were pretty tasty. Little bit of wilted lettuce but good overall all. Fresh. A- Ordered shrimp fried rice : nothing special but good. C Ordered an everything pho (non seafood) : the soup came out Luke warm.. I was expecting a big bowl of "steamy" pho and received a bowl of disappointment... was sad.. D- Ordered the 76-86$seafood platter (forgot price) : Served on a huge tray. Again... food wasn't pipping hot as expected. Lobster was a tad bit rubbery. Shrimp were all small.. crab legs were average and both other crabs I ate were just ok.. meh. Everything was DRENCHED in garlic. I love garlic but damnnnn, I like to taste seafood too. Crawdads produce little meat. D Service was nice . A Overall sadly I will not be dining back at crabby noodles. Perhaps in a year or so I'll try again. "D" grade..“

“Currently our favorite place for pho. There are so many pho places in NoVA but always hard to find good ones. So glad we found this place. We have been coming here to dine or ordering DoorDash from here almost every week for the last couple of months. Fresh ingredients, flavorful broth, good quality meat, always friendly service, competitive price, rich serving size and probably the cleanest and modern pho restaurant I have been to. What more could you ask for?“

“The food was very good and the service is speedy. Nice menu with some interesting choices. I had the rice noodle bowl with chicken and spring roll. I've had this dish many times at many other Vietnamese spots. This one was very good. Too many bean sprouts in my opinion. But, I don't like bean sprouts. Great sour/spicy fish sauce. The chicken was not dry and had good flavor. I will go back to try some other things.“

“Things to note:* only pho soup* can order small or large* can add a bowl of noodles on the side* cash only* no veggie soup options; so don’t ask* family/large group friendly restaurant* parking can be limited and people tend to drive a little recklessly —> so park far and walk off the extra noodle carbs on the way back.It’s fantastic, flavorful, and fresh!The noodles are great, the meat is tender, the coffee ????? slaps. I got the iced Vietnamese coffee with the crack- milk (condensed milk).It’s a family restaurant. Big groups, kids, and hungover college students reside here.Service is quick. Sat down, ordered, food came out in 5 minutes! And it was packed!Once you’re done, just go up to the counter and pay. Cash only.You can walk next door and grab rice cakes, tapioca cakes, or sesame balls. Can also grab Bahn mi for dinner later. The ? is ???.“

“Had an amazing experience at this mom and pop restaurant. The service and vibe was akin to being at your asian grabdmother's house. Their specialty here is their broken rice platters. I had never tried it before and it was absolutely delicious! The meats had a bit of sweetness which paired amazing with the umami of the fish sauce on our rice. The ban bo hue was also delicious it was full of flavor and the meats in the soup were delicious. Overall a fun experience my best recommendation is to come here with an open mind particularly if you are new to Vietnamese food.“
“I’ve been on the hunt for authentic, mouth drooling bun rieu and the quest has been lackluster until I found this place. Walked in and immediately greeted by a lovely auntie, the owner and chef. She told me it’s a one woman show, and I can tell she put a lot of love in her cooking the moment my bowl came out! The crab meatball was massive and you can tell she used lump crab meat! There was also a unique herb that I haven’t seen provided. I can tell she doesn’t skimp on quality! Honestly, the prices were reasonable given the portion and quality.Even the complimentary iced tea provided was top shelf! It was pandan infused green tea that she said she imported from Vietnam from her personal family. Wow wow I’ll be back to support her!“

“The Pho Bo was wonderful! The taste was delicious, the meat and vegetables fresh perfectly complimentary to the meal. I do however regret my eyes being larger than my stomach and chosing the large size over the small size, but I ate my money's worth. I ordered a sweetened ice expresso that although tastey was not worth the price due to its size. (See pic below). But overall the restaurant was good. Clean seating, glasses, friendly staff, and I didn't even have to wait long for my food. Plenty of noodles and broth! 10/10 would come here again, based on what I've seen on other people's drinks like mine they are small, so just take that into account before buying because it is not like the pictures. I paid 16.95 (Small was 14.85), for a large pho bo bowl and could not finish it, I did notice that it costs 50 cents for each takeout container so if your a small eater either starve a few days before or prepared to chalk out some money to take home the leftover goods.TLDR:Good food, fresh ingredients, alright pho bo prices, disappointung drink size vs costWheelchair accessibility: Sidewalk is a little lacking in maintenance and a slight hill but you can make it here in anything with wheels. Minimal to 0 difficulty.“

“Their banh cuon is freshly made and delicious. Staffs are super friendly. We also often order take out trays for family parties. It’s much easier to park in the back lot of Eden center and they are the first store from one of the back entrances.“

It is a little pricier than the usual spots, but it is well worth it, and you can taste the quality of ingredients they use.The service is awesome, and they are very efficient.I love watching the Vietnamese cooking shows and the fish tank while I enjoy a meal.Try the Salted Plum Soda, it's my fav, I always get it to go for later, as I am so full after my meal.“

“I have eaten here a few times and am eager to return! Vegitarians and carnivores alike will be at ease here. Alex is an easy going, attentive professional who adds just the right touch to this establishment.The pho is the best I've had in this country. The spring rolls are crispy, generously filled and are available in 3 flavors including vegetarian. The pho broths also offer a number of different tasty bases including incredible ox tail and vegetables.One person I dined there with was very happy with their shrimp bowl. My son is a full on pho connoisseur and rates this place as a strong 2nd favorite in the country.It's not a place you go for the ambiance though it's not at all distasteful, just simple. If you are a sauce fan, ie for spring rolls, don't hesitate to order a second container.“

“Why hasn’t anyone raved about their Bo la lot? This place smells like heaven when you walk by it. So much that is how I got drawn in. The beef is so juicy and tender. And the sauce that comes with it is delicious, it has hints of ginger and garlic. Definitely a must try. I grab a tray to go every time I am in Eden Center.“

Thank you for the excellent lunch!Dietary restrictions: Thanks for having spring rolls and sauce free of peanuts and pork! Loved it“

“Their nem nuong is a solid choice for lunch or dinner; whenever I am at Eden, I always order some for my husband. Their nem nuong is made fresh to order, and takes roughly 15-20 minutes to be ready. It is served with a special orange sauce, that is different from your typical peanut sauce or nuoc mam. It contains a grilled baked pork, lettuce, herbs, and a crunchy egg wrapper INSIDE the roll. The crunch egg wrapper is made different with each place that you go, but will always be the best ingredient in your nem nuong roll.“
“The pho here is great, but the other dishes are also really really good. It's always difficult to choose between pho and something else. It's still our go to pho place with the added benefit that you can get something else other than the pho.“

“Food was excellent and came out super fast. Pho had LOTS of meat - the large bowl had enough meat to be practically a meal for two. Iced espresso was served with the ice separately so it didn’t get watered down before you drank it, came out with sugar on the side so you could make it how you liked. Definitely not fancy in terms of ambience but everything was clean and the toppings were fresh & not wilted or mushy. For the amount of meat you get the price is very reasonable. (No pictures because I was starving and the food did not last long enough for a glamour shot)“

“The chicken is great and the owner is super nice with his services ! Hainan Chicken rice should be your must try and under $10 is an unbeatable! It’s halal chicken too!!!! Came with their homemade chicken broth when you dine in. Their fire grilled chicken legs are my favorites! Ordered the Vietnamese style chilli chicken noodle soup today and was so surprised about it! The soup is sooooo delicious and portion is as always amazingly great! You should not miss this place!“
“I must say their banh mi is one of the best in USA and Canada. Yeah, I love banh mi, so I eat lots of places. However, I saw the young woman who's a cashier there, picks up a new bread that falls on the floor and puts it in with all the breads that they are making for customers. I was shocked to see that. I will call them back to talk to the owner or mgr about that.“

“All Pho options are amazing. It was the coolest winter day and we decided to try this restaurant. We were so happy because we love Pho, and the big surprise is that this restaurant is a Fusion with Latin dishes. We ate amazings Cheese Pupusas (El salvador), Inca Kola (Peru). It was amazing to find in one place a variety of great food from Vietnam (Kind of spring rolls, but the doug was clear, sorry I don't have the name) The Phos we all tried were delightful. Service was incredible. I hope the neighborhood support since we need more like this restaurant♥“
