This is my favorite takeout pho place! I've ordered from here multiple times…read more I would always order the summer roll, spring rolls, and sliced brisket pho. The summer roll has the right amount of spring and always lots of noodles and lettuce. The spring rolls always arrive still hot and still so crispy and good. The pho will come separately, a container of the soup and then another container of everything else. The soup would always still be hot! I always pour the soap into a bigger bowl that I have and then put everything else in. It never disappoints!

You know when a place has a limited menu they take care of all their foods. We ordered a pork bahn mi and a chicken bahn mi. An order of pirk dumplings and 2 drinks. The lychee drink and the taro milk drink with boba. The taro drink was creamy and light when drinking. The lychee drink was like a lychee flavor soda but so refreshing. Definitely get the lychee if you are unsure as that is what the worker recommended when i asked. The dumplings were small but yummy with their homemade sauce. I wish they were bigger but no other complaints. The bahn mi's were delicious i got the prok and the flavoring were juicy with their homemade sauce pickled carrots and cucumbers slices balancing it out. The bread was so crispy i throughly enjoyed. I will stop by again another time for the delicious Pho smell that was at the restaurant.

Everything was great. The mi quang was a huge portion with tons of pork, quail eggs, and shrimp. Meanwhile the bo kho had super tender beef and was very fragrant. Loved my Viet coffee and the salted lemonade was so refreshing. Great spot for some casual Vietnamese food in Brooklyn!

The aunties are mentioned often in other reviews, and that's because they're amazing. They'll gladly explain what you need, especially when it comes to the super tasty (and extremely inexpensive) deserts that populate racks and the drink fridges here. Some are sweet, some are sour (the deserts, that is), they'll let you know. Honesty since a cake here is $5, you can afford to try everything! How on to the main reason that you came, the Banh Mi. You literally can't go wrong with any of the eight main sandwiches here. I've tried them all so you don't have to, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't. The bread is crispy, the ingredients are super fresh, and the tastes combine perfectly. The decor is perfect for this kind of spot. No frills. There are three tables and a bunch of chairs. It's exactly what I want in a takeout type place. They concentrate on the food. So, to wrap this one up. Go. I'd say that I'll be back, but I've been coming here for years. If you haven't, it's time to start.

Em Vietnamese Bistro A Vietnamese comfort gem hiding right under the Brooklyn Bridge! Em…read moreVietnamese Bistro brings Chef Ly Nguyen's take on elevated Vietnamese comfort food and tapas to a bright Front Street corner -- think 24-hour broths, shaking beef, and cocktails that actually match the food. ATMOSPHERE: The space feels modern-cozy, not touristy. White marble tables, teal booths, pendant lighting, and a backlit bar make it bright for lunch and glowy for dinner. It's built for lingering -- solo noodle missions, date night, or a post-Brooklyn Bridge walk catch-up. Locals treat it like their neighborhood living room. SERVICE: Family-owned by Dumbo native Patrick Lin, and the team leans into that hospitality. Servers know the menu cold, especially the gluten-free labeling and the QR visual menu you can scan for allergen transparency. Big love to the staff who check in without hovering -- they walk you through spice levels and broth styles like regulars. FOOD: Comfort food done with precision. Everything tastes slow-cooked because it is. What to get... - Cha Gio - Ly's Chicken Wings - Oc Xao Dua - Com Suon Nuong - Muc Chien Gion DRINKS: The cocktail game is strong, and they have a full bar. What to get... - Perfume River - Prosecco ACCESSIBILITY: Street-level entry on Front St with roomy booth seating. Step-free entrance. It's easy to navigate inside. The bathroom is fully accessible and big. ADDRESS: 57 Front St, Brooklyn, NY 11201 Thank you for having me, @emvietnamese

The bun thit nuong/pork vermicelli ($18) was just what I wanted and needed, and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of grilled pork that was provided. And by the overall size of the meal. It was excellent to eat! In addition to the pork and noodles, there were cucumbers, pickled carrots and daikon, ground peanuts, and fried shallots. Yum. I'd return when in the area again to try out some of Em's other dishes!

During my…read morelast visit, I sat in the front dining area, so I didn't get a chance to see how far the restaurant extends towards the back. The restrooms are conveniently located in the middle of the space. The staff were all efficient and constantly on the move. We had reservations for 2pm, and the restaurant was already packed when we arrived. We only had to wait a few minutes while our table was being cleared. The staff apologized. For drinks, we kept it non-alcoholic and ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee and a lychee fizz. To eat, we shared the papaya salad, rice cake omelette, grilled pork bun bowl, and the wok seared beef pho. Everything we tried was so flavorful and well prepared. One thing to note is that if you're planning to visit on a weekend their banh mi is only available from Friday to Sunday until 6pm. However, we go there on Sunday and ordered around 2:30ish and it was already sold out. So I suggest dining in earlier.

While the noodles came quick, the sandwich took about 20 minutes AFTER the noodles came. The sandwich was for my 4 year old since she's not the biggest fan of noodles. She was hungry and quite upset for the whole duration. The staff did come and informed us multiple times it was coming. But it took a total of 20 minutes for it finally come. The manager said it was a communication issue between the servers and the kitchen staff since we did request for the toppings to be on the side. They did apologize multiple times and did not charge us for that sandwich that took forever to come. If it weren't for that incident, definitely a solid 4 stars. Would I come back?

I have dined here so many times @5 years and can brag about the consistency of the summer rolls, pho, banh mis and bubble teas. I have savored and loved every meal here. I usually order and take to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Your receipt now has an order number and an automated voice calls it out she. It is ready. The restaurant is small and I usually sit outside on their bench and wait. The place is packed today on a day when it feels like early summer has arrived. I waited @10 minutes for my shredded chicken Banh mi and walked straight to BBG to dine Al fresco. ( the size of the banh mi is two meals on one imo) Banh Mi Place is a great grab a meal to go to whatever destination you need to get to. Consider me a loyal Banh mi babe!

It's flavorful from all the sauce, but a bit messy to eat. There's decent amount of fillings, but not very even, so you would get a vegetable bite and then a meat bite. It's a decent banh mi and gets the job done though.
