50 Best Vietnamese Restaurants near Kenmore

“Nice, no frills Pho place. The Pho House Special or "dac biet" was very good. The broth was flavorful and the meat wasn't dry. Even tasted like the beef balls were homemade. Some of the best pho I've had in WA.Got a couple of sandwiches too, the grilled pork and grilled chicken. The bread was fresh and crispy, the meat was flavorful, and the pickled veggies were crunchy.The view is amazing. Sit by the window to get a view of the water and Kenmore Air Harbor.Don't expect much from the service. You place your order and they bring it to you but you get your own water and utensils. They clean up after you though.Good, simple, place to get Pho with a unique view.“

“I have been here almost every single morning since I’ve tried this coffee place! I am totally addicted. I’m going to be bringing everyone I know here, it truly is the best and everyone who works here is so genuinely kind and helpful ❤️ also incredibly quick, quality service for the volume of people they can have! I am so happy to have found this place, I get the iced Salty Coffee please do yourself a favor and go here!!!“

“Absolutely love this place. Family owned, Banh Mi’s are great. Growing up in a Vietnamese household, we’d come up to Seattle from Olympia to get banh mi’s. Rise and shine is one of the restaurants that replicates that same taste I remember. Highly recommend.“

“I visited this speakeasy on a Friday night with my husband on recommendation from friends. It is a very small place and mostly seatings are around the bar. Didn’t sound appealing to me but believe me it was fun! I would recommend going in small group of 2 or max 4. I don’t think they accept reservations but we got a table within 10 mins of putting our names. The drinks are amazing! Very flavorful and well made! I loved the dua dua coconut if you are a coffee fan you must try the ca phi tini! Cooling water is also refreshing. In terms of food, we had pho which is made in pho bac downstairs. We also had the tofu rolls and the broccoli cheese dip. My only critic is that the dip came in much later and we were full from the pho so couldn’t do justice with the dip. It was pretty cheesy and heavy. Overall fun time proof being I forgot to click pictures of the drinks ;)“

“Do yourself a favor — EAT AT LOTUS POND. (1) Carpool to Lotus Pond. The more the merrier. (2) Appetizers: You can’t lose. Everything is good. Me? I eat the Imperial Rolls. Get two orders of the egg rolls aka Imperial Rolls — one order won’t be enough for 2 people. Start there, you’ll be very happy. Also order the pork belly on the skewers please, No regrets. It’s very good. (3) Noodle Soups. Every bowl Is a winner. Pho is great, no question there. However, you absolutely must eat the SEAFOOD with special Red Noodle. (4) Early enough during the day, drink the Viet Ice Coffee. (5) Too bad they don’t have enough staff/hands to make the BANH CUON but they make up for it in many ways. Try everything on the menu. I’m not a relative. I don’t get money or fame for recommending Lotus Pond. I just know authentic good food when I see and eat it. Try it. You will leave with a full, joyous stomach … you will be very satisfied. Happy eating!“

“This is my favorite spot in Greenwood. The phos and the beef salad are excellent. And, the portions are big. Each time we visit I leave very full. The first time we came on a Friday around 6:30 and had to wait about 45 minutes. Since then, we've arrived earlier at 5:30, and there hasn't been a wait. So, it's all about coming it at the right time. Even if you do have to wait, I think it's worth it.“

“Randomly stopped in to meet friends. So beyond impressed. Everything was outstanding. The food, the service, the drinks, the atmosphere, and did I mention the service. John was by far the best bartender I have ever met. I mean that in all sincerity. Next time I’m in Seattle I’ll be stopping in !“

“The atmosphere is bright and cheerful. The staff are friendly and helpful. The food is fantastic! I had the #1 pho noodle soup. The bowl is huge, and there was surprisingly alot of meat in the bowl. The broth! The broth was amazing and a perfect balance of flavors. Highly suggest eating here!“

“Best Banh Mi sandwich I have had in as long as I can remember. I only ran in to order, I didn’t dine in but the place is SUPER CUTE on the inside and the service I did experience was also equally amazing! 11/10 would eat again! (I ate my sandwich before I could take a picture of it)“

“Will always be in support of more pho shops opening up in Seattle! Stopped by for a quick lunch in the middle of a very cold day and immediately felt the warm embrace of that hot broth. Everything tasted super clean without compromising flavor, which is truly hard to find these days. Didn't expect to enjoy the pho so much because it's a relatively small and unassuming shop. But it is ran by the sweetest family who got my food out in less than 2 minutes. Definitely a great additional to this area of capitol hill. Would highly recommend.“

“Love this place! Seating is a little tight because it's so popular but their food is pretty good! Very affordable and always consistent with the taste and flavor. I would recommend but I don't want others to visit so I don't have to wait. lol“

“My wife and I ordered take out. She's a foodie and harsh critic but had nothing but glowing reviews for the dishes we ordered. We usually get pho from a few other spots on Aurora but we're going to stick to this place for the time being. Very impressed! Pairs well with Rainier “

“If they have words for how incredible this food was they have not been uttered yet! Mind Blown!!!!! Came up from Portland, OR to visit a family member who is ill and stumbled upon this restaurant. Never been, didn’t know you needed a reservation, so we sat at the bar. Once the food came, I completely understood why a reservation was necessary. Anybody giving less than 5 stars is crazy!“

“Very friendly, lots of vegan and vegetarian options for bahn no, main dishes, noodles, desserts, drinks, and package snacks. Also happy to cater to plastic – free preferences. Will definitely eat there again!Vegetarian options: And vegan options too!“

“Nice pho spot in Shoreline WashingtonThe combination is delicious and reasonably pricedThey also give you a lot of bean sprouts to add into your soupThe spring rolls are also very crispy and well-madeService here is fastThis place has a small parking lot on the side for convenience“

“Phó shop owned by a mom and pop literally. They have big portions and great food. Small restaurant, but packs a punch! Parking can be kind of a challenge, but its worth the hassle.Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options, like veggies or tofu“

“Super good! New owners, took our orders fast, brought out the food fast, amazing food and taste. Portions are worth the price as well! Super good stuff and I took advantage of their 20 percent off sale for their grand opening! 10 outta 10 for sure, will be back soon! They do fine in and take out I believe and you dont even have to worry about covid 19 in that restaurant because it's all clean and socially distanced ! Love it and it's close by too. Good luck on the new business!“

“Lee and her team are fantastic. The bahn mi sandwiches are delicious. They catered a pta fundraiser party for a local sps school parent community. She was easy to work with, flexible, offered helpful suggestions, and reasonably priced. Would use them again and highly recommend!“

“Awesome plant based, vegetarian, vegan options amongst a menu loaded with delicious meat based "standard" fare. Pretty amazing cocktail menu as well. Attended a 12 person family dinner on a Sat night as the only vegan- everyone went home well fed and happy.Vegetarian options: For appetizer and main entree, I had at least 2 options to choose from as a vegan. Banh mi sandwiches, tofu noodles, kale & quinoa salad are some examples. I was satisfied with the number of options, their presentation, and most importantly, their taste.“

“A little hidden gem in Bothell.Ban mi sandwich was house made pork. Original nice flavor.Spring rolls were on point and at 5 dollars for two amazing!Pho was also very good according to my brother and only 11 dollars!This blew me away, best Philippine flavors in a long time! Top notch food“

“Everything was great! Ten out of ten! Friendly and thoughtful staff, food tasted delicious and the atmosphere was great! We needed to decompress from a long morning of walking and activities, and they gave us a space to do just that. So grateful! Will come here again!“

“First time back in years and it's every bit as wonderful as I remember. First came when it opened a long time ago and fell in love. Used to come multiple times a week after soccer and there's nothing better to replenish. They haven't hiked prices anywhere close to what they could have and i was amazed to see how cheap it for the quality in 2024. Go here you won't regret it.“

“This place was amazing! Electric attitudes from the staff and great service. Timing of ordering was great from the drinks, to the appetizers and the entrees. The atmosphere is also wonderful and homelike. We ordered the crab Rangoon, fried pancake, spicy Kimchi calamari, a vegan Bahn Mi sandwich, and the Pho Combo. Everything was really fresh and the portions were plentiful!Vegetarian options: A lot to choose here for vegetarians/vegansDietary restrictions: Tons of vegan options“

“Vegetarian Pho is excellent. Flavorful broth, lots of veggies and tofu.Tofu spring rolls some of the best we've had. Fresh, great flavor and texture (with a little crunch inside). Peanut sauce good, not too sweet like some others.Vegetarian options: Excellent Vegetarian Pho and Spring rolls. Bun (noodle salad) is great also“

“This is a wonderful place to grab banh mi and coffee in Fremont. My daughter had the bun and I had a dark soy sauce tofu banh mi and everything was perfect. We also had a mango smoothie that was so thick it almost didn't fit through the straw and one of the most delicious and lovingly made double espressos I've ever had. Too bad I didn't take pictures but I was so hungry I forgot.Vegetarian options: Delicious tofu banh mi options.“

“Was craving pho and didn’t feel like spending $18+ on a bowl, so decided to check out this no-frills restaurant! I got a large pho with steak (I think it was $14.50) and my friend got the lemongrass chicken rice plate (around $13).The pho was really delicious. I have had a lot of pho before and I will admit, I’m really picky about broth. But this one did not disappoint! Hot, flavorful, and comforting. It also had lots of beef.The lemongrass chicken had amazing flavor and was really moist. The side salad was really fresh as well, which was a pleasant surprise.What lacks in ambience is made up for in exceptional food. I felt like I was eating a home cooked meal.I will definitely be coming back soon!“

“I wish I could give Pho Viet Anh more than five stars. It is a fantastic place for a quick snack before a Seattle Kraken game. The best part is that Pho Viet Anh is a quick walk to the Climate Pledge Arena, less than a 10-minute walk. Everything we got was delicious and filling. The pork and shrimp salad roll was outstanding, a great start to the meal, and the icing on the cake was the King Special noodle soup. The next time we are in Seattle, we will make a return and try the other items they offer.“

“Everything is delicious. For a long time we just ordered Bahn Mi sandwiches because they were so delicious. The bread is crackly and soft and the ratio of meat to veg is perfect. Tonight, however, we tried the egg noodle chow mein, the teriyaki chicken, egg rolls and potstickers. We were not disappointed. Everything was great. Happy full bellies! Plus the service is wonderful. Everyone who works there is a delight.“

“The pho is really freaking good, and the prices are the best for what you get. The atmosphere is non existent, but at these prices and quality, I'm fine with that.Great lunch spotWheelchair accessibility: I don't think a wheelchair would have an easy time navigating the tight space...“

“Let me write this review real quick. I missed breakfast, and I was **** near starving by lunch. I searched for some foods spots, and this place showed up. I looked at the menu, and I couldn't decide between the Cod burger or a Pho bowl. I decided to go in and ask about the choices. Pleasant service to say the least. I ended up going with the Cod burger. Let's just say I'll be back here at least once a month for a Cod burger, guaranteed. Good portion size too. I was satisfied.“

“It was my first time going and I loved the crispy imperial rolls. They are so freaking good. For lunch I got Singaporean Noodle and it came with chicken and shrimp. I wasn't a fan but I've never had it before. I will go back to try their pho dip steak sandwich. It looks so freaking good.“

“Been here twice, definitely my go to place for pho.As Asian I have my own way to tell if an Asian restaurant is good, that is their play list! Those who have pop western music from 80s and 90s hardly go wrong. And if they play festive music during LNY, you can trust them. I came here in summer and during LNY recently, their playlist checked the boxes.I like rare beef pho. The soup is SUPER good, light yet flavorful. Sliced beef is think and tender. Make sure to stir the pho quickly once you get them, they might stick together at the bottom of the bowl.My partner is vegetarian, his egg noodles soup base is different from mine but it is also light and flavorful, kinda sweet. It also comes with lots of veggies and some firm tofu.“

“It's a great spot with great Pho. Very friendly and good customer service with tasty food. They have a chicken Pho with vegetables broth, a great combination for those who don't eat beef broth. Their vermicelli plate is also second to none. Huge portions with a very fair price. Highly recommend.“

“I've never been into the restaurant...we have gotten delivery several times. It's so yummy! Just so yummy! I am vegetarian, and all of the dishes that I've eaten have been amazing. My kiddo likes the smoked pork rice bowl with an egg on top! Great value for the price! They don't seem to be engaging in shrink-flation, which I appreciate!“

“First time I've been here since the owners changed from Bamboo Bowl and it's definitely a huge upgrade. The menu has definitely expanded. The pho is clean and tasty but what I enjoyed the most was their homemade cream puff. The staff is so friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience better. Definitely will be back and hope others will support this business.“

“My favorite place! After trying so many vegetarian pho in Seattle I was finally able to find the best one :) They have the best veggie pho broth which in my opinion is the most important thing when eating pho. I couldn't recommend this place more, I've been a regular customer for more than a year, I walk in and they already know my order, all the staff is very friendly and always super attentive, thank you pho than!!“

“One of my favorite places in the city to grab a quick Vietnamese bite. Been getting take out here for the last 6 years and have noticed the price increase due to covid and inflation, but still “affordable” compared to other options around the “

“Update: Pork belly now has skin? And cooked differently...? Definitely not as tender. Hopefully this was just a one time thing!Pho Tai Nam is incredible. Pork belly with broken rice also incredible. Best pho in Seattle, in my opinion. Caramel chicken wings worth a try. Very good. I think they have a weekday special.“

“This is one of my favorite dessert spots! All of their drinks and chè are amazing, and the pandan waffle is a dream. I like the red bean combo, taro lover, Bambu combo, Fruit addict. So many great options to choose from. I've ordered the pandan waffle at other locations, but they never compared to this location. Theirs is always big, crispy and chewy!Việt owned and operated! I miss Nhu, but everyone is kind and great.“

“I got the chicken banh mi, which was delicious. The pickled vegetables were crisp, and the the flavors were really balanced, so I could enjoy all of them.When my food was ready, a person from the restaurant called me to let me know, and they were very polite. I was in a rush, so I couldn't get a good sense of the atmosphere of the restaurant, but it seemed pleasant, and I certainly plan on going back to dine in when I can.“

“Got the chicken vermicelli bowl for to-go!WOW, I really didn't expect that!!! Quick service and amazing food!!I was so surprised by that location because you wouldn't expect the great food. Very fresh and delicious!Now, I just wanna come back here to try more.Casual ambiance with friendly service.“

“The food and service are amazing!! The server is so kind and helpful, she works very hard to ensure you feel taken cared of, and she is also so so funny! Price are very reasonable and the food is all so yummy and fresh! Highly recommend to anyone wanting some authentic Vietnamese “

“Absolutely delicious banh mi sandwiches, and under $10 which is hard to find. I got the grilled pork and my boyfriend got the lemongrass. The bread was not too hard, the amount of veggies were perfect and the meat was marinated so well. Both really good and will definitely be back.“

“Fast service and decent pho. I get the large and they tend to give a lot more soup and less noodle than needed so I feel like it would be good to get extra noodles. The broth is pretty good and tends to be flavorful. Nothing really special though.“

“Good coffee, tea and salads. Nice location, bright & clean environment, usually a place to park right outside on the street. Friendly and helpful baristas. They do often play the music a bit too loud for my taste, but overall, I recommend the coffee shop.“

“At first, I was very confused by this kitchen concept. There are multiple restaurants in this location, and they are all takeout / delivery only. They mainly rely on delivery, and are all on multiple apps. They have lockers and a self pick-up and self ordering system for no-contact. This is NOT a traditional restaurant and there is no seating at all. Recommend ordering ahead of time because again, there is no place to sit or wait inside the restaurant space. There is a bathroom though. The food, however, was quite delicious. We ordered the pork vermicelli bowl, tofu vermicelli bowl, tofu spring rolls, and shrimp spring rolls. The spring rolls are marketed as appetizers but can honestly be a full meal too. The peanut sauce it comes with is delicious. I ordered at the store and waited for my food. Everything was packed super well and perfectly ready to eat by the time I got home. In fact, I ate it so quickly I forgot to take photos. With an order of $35+, it comes with a free green Thai tea. This is a special type of Thai tea that has an herbal flair to it. I like it very much.As it's in Udistrict, there isn't much parking except street parking, but there is a loading zone spot for pickups.“

“This is your above average pho and Vietnamese food joint. This place is clean and well kept. The staff are awesome and very accommodating. Prices generally are on the higher end, but what do you expect, it's Seattle. Dining area can get crowded, but highly recommended to try if you're in the area.“

“Great family owned business that takes pride and care to make sure I'm 100% satisfied. They literally know exactly what I want everytime. Also, they make sure they ask me how was my meal after each time. When I give constructive criticism, they are diligent to make necessary changes to suit my needs. A+business! You guys rock!“

“Went to Time 4 Pho for the first time. It was very delicious ?. Ordered their bbq pork spring rolls and steak/meatballs pho. Flavors were on point, the pho’s broth is very flavorful, and everything about it was perfect!!! Customer service was friendly!!! Highly recommended! Love love love it ?“

“In shortNeighborhood pho joint with a straightforward menu. They're delivering the goods for a fair price.In longThis is a bustling strip mall on an even-more-bustling 4-lane thoroughfare into Mill Creek. The parking lot is always packed. Especially on weekends, you can often assume that the pool hall/sports bar in the corner suite is drawing most of that traffic. But like most of the smaller businesses here, Pho Hoang has some reserved parking and you can hook it straight up. There's pho available at a couple spots within a few miles, but there are a ton of subdivisions and apartment complexes right around here. I was not at all surprised to see well over a dozen takeaway orders leave the dining room while I ate, and to hear a constant clatter from the kitchen, even though I was the only person eating in.You walk in to an open dining room with minimal decor. Dozen tables, acoustic drop ceiling, simple art. No muss, no fuss. Pay station in the back, tell 'em how many in your party and ya have a seat. No TVs I don't think, no music playing. A couple big potted plants. Seemed like the staff was mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, plus somebody in the kitchen and daughter at the pay station. Everyone is super nice, chatting warmly to each other in Vietnamese throughout my visit. I felt like I was visiting people in their home, in the nicest possible way. For my first time in, I got the usual steak and brisket. A small was filling for sure. You get an old teapot with a teabag steeping in it if you ask. They bring you a chilled plastic bottle of water when you sit. The broth was good stuff here. Rich and marrowy, nice and clear, good balanced spices. Everything in it was as it should be--tender meat, chewy noodles, nice flavor to the meatballs. The meatballs were a nice surprise, actually. The condiments were all in good shape--crunchy sprouts, very juicy fresh lime, super-aromatic basil. They don't bring you jalapenos or cilantro, and I didn't ask for any so I don't know if they stock it. But it was a perfectly satisfying bowl of soup as it was. I was out the door with a good tip for barely $20, happily armored against a cold damp day.“
