Super delicious pho. Opted for the rare beef and brisket pho and it was scrumptious. Well worth the $14 and they'll knock off 5% if you pay in cash. read more

Binh Duong - Rare beef and brisket pho $14 - Vietnamese Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

Best pho place ever!!! Everything else is also great but I have never had pho better than what they serve here

A gem tucked away in a strip mall! This place is just 5 stars all around. I've been coming here for years, before Pho became a trendy item. This place is family run and they just renovated their locations to more of an updated look. Service is great, as everyone is attentive of your needs and they check in often to see if everything is to your liking. Now. the food! Delicious and fresh! From the egg rolls to the epic Pho broth that's made overnight, it's like magic in a bowl. Perfect for the chillier nights and the cold vermicelli noodles are refreshing during summer nights. Spring and summer rolls are perfection as well. Each entree is cooked to you liking ams they don't skimp out on the portion sizes. Def a must try if you are in the area! read more

Binh Duong keeps getting better. Spring rolls and summer rolls have always been good; now they're better. They give a good robust plate of salad for their pho. The banh mi is great. Service is excellent. It's expanded so there's usually no wait. Great Vietnamese juices and shakes. read more

Summer rolls were good but the broth of the pho was subpar, needed more flavor. Spring rolls were really good

Bihn Duong has been a staple of Vietnamese cuisine in north NJ for decades. Coming into for a hearty bowl of pho and crispy spring rolls is all I could ask for. Parking can be rough on the weekends in the small plaza lot, but I definitely recommend this place. read more

It's alright, the beef and shrimp were dried and flavor was off. Service was very good and quickly, but the quality of the food is not $$.

Delicious Vietnamese food. I always get the beef pho. The broth is heaven. The quail appetizer is great. I also love the noodles with mixed seafood. I have eaten here many times for years and I've never had a bad meal. read more

Pho beef noodle soup was good..:staff was friendly and nice .:: would definitely be back to try other dish if I am in the area... place looks clean and d busy read more

Amazing food, amazing service. The owner of the restaurant is a very sweet lady. She makes you feel welcomed and like her own family. I can with some relatives from out of town and they tried Pho for the first time at this restaurant and loved it! read more

Friday Lunch (12:45pm-1:45pm) Table for 2 I've been here multiple times before as it is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in NJ so far! This is located in a small plaza with other stores that share the parking lot, so finding parking is usually a pain. There is one gender-neutral bathroom hidden behind some curtains. There are a lot of options and I definitely want to try other things on their menu! ****CLEANLINESS**** - The table, food, utensils look/feel pretty clean - Sauce bottles aren't sticky like at other restaurants I've been to - However!! I get a little grossed out when I see the servers' fingers in the plate/bowl almost touching the food - especially if you can see that their hands/fingernails are dirty :( - The bathroom doubles as their closet for cleaning supplies so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ****SERVICE**** - We were seated, ordered, and served all our food within 20 minutes - Was not crowded when we got there, but I could tell it was starting to get busy when we were leaving - Other times I've been here there would be a wait and the place does not have a proper waiting area except for 3 chairs by the door - One of the servers was having a whole conversation with 2 diners at the table next to us - but usually the servers don't talk much - Workers passed by our table a couple times and saw we were done eating, but did not rush us to pay or leave (could be because it wasn't busy yet?) - There's a server that I see every time I come here, and I think he memorized the whole menu ****FOOD**** *01. Cha Gio/pork spring rolls ($5.95) - They have the best Vietnamese spring rolls I've tasted! I always order them when I go here - Plate comes with 5 little pieces (good enough for one person - I ate all of them, but can be shared if you're ordering more food) - I love the crispy wrapper - The pork filling is cooked nicely and has a good texture, but might not be that flavorful on its own - Tastes sooo good when eaten with everything (lettuce, mint, and fish sauce) *21. Pho Tai/pho with rare eye of round (small: $7.50) - I always order one of the beef pho when I'm here (they have different options for beef) - The thin slices of beef are laid on top of the bowl and served rare, but pushing the beef under the hot soup cooks it quickly - Meat was tender - Tasty and comforting - I always put the extra add-ins (bean sprouts, lime, Thai basil) and the hoisin sauce and sriracha to any bowl of pho I eat - Finished the noodles and meat, but had a lot of soup leftover *24. Pho Ca Vien/pho with fish ball (small: $7.50) - (Not my order) - Apparently tasted yummy and the fish balls were tender, but a little on the rubbery side *87. Ca Kho To/braised salmon ($12.95) - (Not my order, but I tried some) - Served with rice and a salad - The salmon was served in a small clay pot - Fish was tender, juicy, and flavorful - Tasted like they used oyster sauce- had some sweet and salty flavors ****DRINKS**** *131. Tra Thai/Thai iced tea ($3.00) - I always order Thai iced tea at Vietnamese or Thai restaurants - Sweet, cold, and refreshing - No complaints! - not sure if they didn't serve us water because they forgot or because we ordered other drinks ****PAST FOOD ORDERS**** *04. Banh Xeo with meat ($9.50) - crispy crepe filled with shrimp, pork, mung beans, bean sprouts and served with lettuce, mint, and fish sauce - They put more shrimp in their banh xeo compared to other restaurants I've been to - Big serving size for an appetizer - definitely something to share - I love the crispy outer shell of the pancake (other places don't serve it crispy!!) and the softer inside - Can be messy to eat when you start cutting it up and try to wrap it in lettuce - Overall yummy and I always order it when I'm with my family *C2. Com Suon Heo Nuong ($8.50) - Tasty and tender pork chop (on the bone) with rice and some cucumbers and tomatoes - Tastes even better with the fish sauce - I don't remember tasting the lemongrass, which is unfortunate because I love that taste. But still a yummy dish read more

Simply the best! The best Vietnamese food I've had in NJ. The staff is so kind, everything is delicious. I hope they expand and can offer more tables. read more

Their food is delicious especially the noodles soup u should visit bin dhong pretty delicious good

Great food and exceptional service. Vietnamese fried rice is a must try, combination Pho and pork chop are the dishes I would recommend.

Food is always amazing here!! Service is always fast and ready. Small business and parking is always hard, car pooling is best for this location. Inside is small and loud, but turn around time is quick!!! Hope you enjoy the spring roll!! read more

Probably the only good pho in Bloomfield, NJ! The parking lot is small so you need to park on the street cuz it can get overcrowded. It's in this shopping center with a bunch of other restaurants and an Asian market. Make sure you know what you want cuz the waiter dude is not going to wait. I got the combo- I think its the number 1. The fried spring rolls were pretty good too. This review is based on pho in the bloomfield area. I would NOT compare this to like Philly pho cuz this would not even compare. DECENT FOR BLOOMFIELD JERSEY PHO. read more

Binh Duong - After new owners and staff food does NOT taste the same.time to go to the other spot in hillside spot. - Vietnamese Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

I love pho and always on the lookout for local places to try. We came in for a late lunch on a Saturday around 2:30pm, and there were a good number of tables filled. Of course we started with spring rolls, which were on point. Moving on to the noodles, I had pho with grilled pork, and my hubby had the rare beef pho. We also ordered extra noodles which conveniently come on the side, so we were able to share as well as pack up leftovers. The portion size was generous to begin with. The most important part of pho is the broth, and unfortunately, their's is very bland. Even though the noodles and protein were good, it's just not as enjoyable without a solid broth. Not sure if the broth needs to simmer longer, have more salt, or what, but it was plain - had to add a ton of hoisin and chili sauce. read more

It's been about 4 years since I reviewed Banh Duong and they just reopened for indoor dinging recently so I will give an update. The menu has changed a little. I didn't see size options for the pho like they used to have. However the food here is still great. I got a spicy chicken dish with peppers and onion that was delicious. The pho is great as usual. Spring rolls, summer rolls. Everything here is still on point. They haven't missed a step. I am not Vietnamese, but can imagine some of these dishes being served to me in someones home. It is always a surefire good sign when you can taste the love and soul coming from the kitchen. Food that (in most cases) be prepared quickly but packs true flavor is always a winner. Another plus is their chili oil. Most places don't pack heat like theirs. I am glad I can have some chili oil that actually packs a nice little punch. You don't have to travel outside of this area to get great Vietnamese food. Just go! You won't be disappointed. ENJOY!!! read more

Binh Duong - Summer rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

Went with my roommate for takeout. The dining room quite crowded, but the atmosphere was relaxed and fairly quite for the number of people in the restaurant. If you can I recommend bringing cash because you will get a 5% discount. We both got the Grilled Lemongrass Pork Patty Bánh Mì and it was delicious!!! The vegetables were fresh and crisp and the pork was flavorful. Each bite had the perfect ratio of bread to pork to crunch. I appreciated that the sandwich was DIY where the vegetables and meat were packaged separately because it prevented the bread from getting soggy and the vegetables from weeping. Would recommend to anyone interested in a refreshing and seemingly healthy sandwich! read more

My family and I were in the area on a Monday afternoon and was looking for a place to eat. We found this Vietnamese restaurant nearby in a small suburban strip mall with very limited parking. We had to wait about 10 minutes for us to park 3 cars. To no surprise, the restaurant was packed and we had to wait 20 minutes for a table for 7 people. The tables and chairs were so cramped on top of each other. The menu was super hard to read for someone who is not Vietnamese. The English is in such a tiny font and we had trouble finding our usual Vietnamese favorite staple dishes. Good thing the waiter understood a little bit of Cantonese. The menu prices are pretty cheap compared to other New Jersey Vietnamese restaurants. The thai iced tea was really sweet. The three colors dessert was also not good, much like a carnival ice with syrup. The summer rolls appetizer did not taste so good. The filling was very dry and stale. I ordered a large house combination pho and the noodles and soup were not the best either. The soup was watery and not flavorful enough. There was a lot of beef, but also very dry and tasteless. The rice dishes have two types: rice platters and entrees. Be careful, because we ordered the entree version and the portions were huge. If I say that you must eat in this town, eat here because there are not many strip malls and not too many Vietnamese food options. Otherwise, I would advise you to drive further for a better Vietnamese restaurant. read more

This is our go to Vietnamese restaurant. The pho is amazing, as are all the dishes we've tried. On this visit my wife had the #22 Pho Tai Nam with rare eye of round and brisket and I had the #26 Pho Thit Heo Nuong with grilled boneless lean pork. Both are always amazing. As an app, we had the #10 Tom Chien Khoai, crispy batter fried sweet potato nestled with shrimp and served with lettuce, mint and fish sauce, also delicious. For dessert, the #136 Che Mon, sweet rice pudding with taro and coconut milk is our favorite. The atmosphere here is not fancy but the food is always great. This is a BYOB. read more

By far the best Vietnamese food I've found between northern New Jersey and Manhattan so far. I can actually eat a whole bowl of pho here (which they give you a big portion of meat with) AND want to drink up all the soup, because the broth is actually really good. The bun bo hue is also good and authentic (even if it ain't like my momma's). I'm a fan of the egg rolls and grilled pork chops also, if I'm not in the mood for all things soupy. Love the avocado and jackfruit shakes. Everything tastes like it should. It's great. Makes me happy when I'm homesick. Oh, except for the canh chua ca. It's too sweet sometimes and they don't even use the right type of fish. (Hint: it's not supposed to be salmon fillets). The service isn't all that great but that should be pretty much expected at most Vietnamese establishments. Still, much better than anything you'll find in Chinatown that's for sure. read more

Binh Duong - Vietnamese Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

The Pho is brilliant, and needs no boosting on here. Alas, everything else is kinda lacking. The so-called lemongrass dishes lack any zing and the chicken cabbage salad always misses key ingredients (where's the chilis, cilantro and mint? And why are they stingy with the grated carrots?) Still, in the absence of regular flights to Ho Ch Minh City or Melbourne's (Australia) western suburbs, I'll take what I can get for my fix. read more

I came here after a night of drinking. Pho is the best hangover cure, but only if it's legit. This place was solid. I enjoyed the Pho Dac Biet and felt immensely better when I finished the bowl. The pho noodles were cooked to the right texture and their were a good amount and variety of meat in the bowl. I appreciated that they didn't shy away from some of the cartilage and make the dish more Americanized. Two other people in my party ordered the same thing, and one got the Bun Bo Hue. No complaints from anyone, though the BBH needed a touch more salt (so I was told). I saw another person getting the Sinh To Bo (Avocado shake) on my way out. My only regret was not ordering it too. It looked perfect! Another time... read more

Stumbled upon this place which can be easily missed. It's your typical, no frills, just plain good ol' fashion viet. Coming from NY, there are surprisingly no good viet restaurants, but I do have some good pho comparisons in colorado, cali, texas, washington and canada. These other cities have heavily populated vietnamese communities so you'd expect some pho'nominal viet food so my palate for vietnamese food is pho'king on point. So how did this place compare to these other known cities for excellent vietnamese food you ask, it was legit. I could easily say it's authentic and as traditional as it gets. From the soup broth and the assorted slices of tender meats, it did not disappoint in anyway. The porkchops were fresh and nicely grilled to a juicy perfection. Overall, if I'm in the area, I'd definitely come back pho'real. Stay fat mother pho'kers read more

Binh Duong - Add them beefballs pho'real - Vietnamese Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

Nothing beats steamy hot pho on a nice cold night. I heard about this place thanks to a friend's recommendation was happy that we came! We went on a Friday night and it was pretty poppin. It took about 20-30 minutes for us to be seated for a party of 5 and we came in at around 7:30. Even after we left there were piles of people coming in. The menu was pretty vast with lots of options for everyone! They have rice dishes, crispy noodles, spring rolls, and more importantly pho. The pho comes in 3 different sizes and you can pick from a few different types of meat that they had. I ended up getting a combination because I wanted a mix of everything and was happy with my choice! I also got a large size which was perfect because I was very hungry that day. The pho was delicious and really hit the spot! It's not the best pho I've ever had but it is very solid and for sure gets the job done. The service was pretty decent. I was worried that it would be bad after seeing the reviews but we were attended to well. It might just vary on who is working. Parking was terrible. That lot gets beyond filled but thankfully as soon as I pulled up someone was leaving making my life a lot easier. Overall great spot! I will for sure be back for more. read more

There are a few restaurants I go to at least once every other week. Binh Duong is definitely on that list. I pretty much tried their whole menu but there are a few items that stand out. I highly recommend the dishes below. *PHO- The Pho here is amazing! The broth is well seasoned and clean. The thinly sliced meat is always fresh and their noodles are perfectly cooked. *FRIED SPRING ROLLS- Super crispy served with fish sauce and a side of lettuce. *PORK CHOP OVER RICE- The pork chops here are very tender and marinated in a slightly sweet fish sauce. Service is always quick and efficient. If you decide to dine in during the weekends expect to wait around 15 mins for a table. read more

Great viet food in the area, however not a fan of the location/waiting area. Unfortunately located in a small plaza with very limited parking. When we arrived, the place was packed and there was pretty much no where to wait inside the restaurant. Luckily, a couple gave us their number so we were seated in a reasonable time. In terms of food quality/price/value, this is definitely 5 stars. It was refreshing to see prices this low. The rice vermicelli was surprisingly cold, but paired well with the warm pork and hot spring rolls. Strong and bold flavors with the pork and rolls, and I would put this above other viet places I've had that cost more. The only real turn-off is the location/parking situation. However, would definitely come back or possibly consider delivery options in the future. read more

The best pho restaurant in North Jersey! It's in a crowded shopping plaza and parking is limited but it's worth the wait! It's a small place with only a handful of tables but you can tell how popular it is based off the amount of people already dining and the stacks of takeout to go. Definitely recommend getting the Thai iced tea with the House Pho. Their broth is delicious and hearty - perfect after a hangover or a bad cold. read more

Binh Duong - House Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Bloomfield, New Jersey

Love the variety here and they do everything so well. The broths here are clean and the meat is cooked just right. Tried both the combo pho and Bun Bo Hue, both were tasty and filling. My preference would be the Bun Bo Hue because the broth had a much deeper flavor. My favorite item here would be the Banh Xeo, which is a fantastically crunchy Vietnamese crepe/omelette hybrid. The outside is super crunchy and inside is filled with pork, shrimp, and beansprouts. Put a little mint and fish sauce and you have a bite with perfect taste and texture. It's listed under appetizers but portion is almost good enough as an entree. Shoutout to Kevin W. for recommending the spring rolls. Much better than the other stuff I haver around where I live and I would easily drive the 30 minutes to get these done right. Order comes with 5 piece, which is a bit odd since most tables are either 2 or 4 people. Better bring your fighting gear to get that last piece. Plan some extra time to account for the parking situation. Seating is also limited so be prepared to wait a little bit, especially during peak hours. The food is worth the wait. read more

I've been trying to find a good Viet place to eat out at because when you're in Jersey, your choices are very limited. I came here based on the great reviews and I thought the food was just very mediocre. It could be because I didn't get the pho, I don't know? But I ordered the Bon Bo Hue which is my favorite Vietnamese dish and I thought the meat (the pork) did not taste fresh at all. I also ordered the Thai tea to drink which was good but nothing special - just like any other place. Parking could be a little challenging even though it's in a lot. The parking lot is shared with other businesses and it's small. I came here on a weekday night and had to wait for parking.  Upon walking in, the restaurant was popping! The restaurant itself is pretty small and there is no décor. This place is definitely a hole in the wall; people definitely just come here for the food. I came here with just one of my friends and we were seated at a 6 person table because that was the only available table. In the middle of our dinner, one of the staff members asked us if it was okay if 2 other people sat at the same table as ours. We didn't mind this, but I just wanted to let you all know that this place can get cramped! Would I come back? I'm not dying to come back but if I did, I would definitely try another dish, probably the pho. If you like to eat Bon Bo Hue, I personally like it better at Saigon Pho in Parsippany. Service was quick which is always a good thing. It's probably better to come here earlier because it gets busier later on in the night. FYI - credit card minimum is $15. read more

I've been to many places in New Jersey and New York for pho. I will definitely say I have not been to every place, but as Binh Duong is one of the top if not the top place I'd go around this area for a nice bowl of Pho on a rainy cold day... (or even a hot sunny day, it does not matter)! I cannot rave about how much I enjoy the pho here. My favorite ones are the beef pho which include the house special (a combination of rare, well-done, brisket, tendon and tripe), flank steak, and the beef bowl pho. As for other menu items, you cannot go wrong starting off with either the spring rolls, summer rolls, or fried calamari. If for some reason you are not feeling pho when you are there, I've had a number of their dishes over the years that I enjoy. My second favorite is the sauteed beef cubes with rice; simple yet satisfying. Other dishes that I have enjoyed include the grilled pork with vermicelli and spring rolls, the lemongrass chicken, and their variety of casseroles (either shrimp, salmon, or pork). In addition, if you are specifically not going there for pho, come during lunch time because they have many of the rice platters on lunch special, so they are cheaper. As for drinks, you cannot go wrong with the Thai iced tea! Over the years, the decor of this place improved, if you noticed over the years, they renovated the place, which allows for more tables and business. Take note that this place is closed on Tuesdays, I always hear about people trying to come here on that day. And if you are looking for a website, the best you can get is go to their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Binh-Duong-Restaurant/116262125060815 The page has a couple pictures and their full menu for you to look at. read more

Best vietnamese food in NJ! Maybe the best I've ever had. I have been coming here with my friends for several years now and the food is always excellent. Definitely recommend getting the grilled pork. Any dish with grilled pork is fantastic. I usually stick with the classic pho though. The shrimp rolls are also to die for, and you can order "half" orders (we usually do this bc we come with an odd number of people and then no one has to share :P). The peanut sauce they come with is so good I could drink it. My only complaints are the long wait to be seated, understandable though. The service is a little slow, the food usually comes out quick but sometimes i feel totally ignored when I wanted to pay the check. read more

Great tasting pho for a great price. Their spring rolls and jackfruit shake are delicious too, and everything comes out very quickly even when they're busy. I deducted a star because the restaurant seems really dirty and the wait staff is far from attentive. Note: Credit card minimum is $15. read more

We were big fans, and hadn't been back in awhile due to not being in the area, decided to treat ourselves. We were craving Binh Duong hard. What a disappointment. I ordered grilled lemongrass pork with noodles, pretty sure they gave me spam and a sheet of noodles stuck together. Not good. Husbands Pho was decent not great like he would previously devour. The spring rolls were good. Sad the food has changed. read more

Excellent Vietnamese food in the heart of Essex County, amazing. The food is authentic, delicious and really fresh. The Pho is really great. I've had the Pho with grilled pork chops (2), you can't beat the price either, $8.50 for a huge bowl of soup with a side dish of two thinly cut pork chops that are seasoned to perfection. All the dishes I've had here are fantastic, the Lemongrass Beef over vermicelli, the spring rolls, summer rolls, all amazing and price is really phenomenal. The restaurant is also packed with Vietnamese people, which is an excellent indicator of the authenticity and quality. There's a fantastic Chinese bakery across the way in the same shopping center, I suggest you check that out too, bring home some dessert after. Can't go wrong here, try everything, check the photos here if you're unfamiliar with the cuisine. read more
