I'm pretty disappointed since I had them package my food one waited about 20 min for them to package it up for me and two I still had two very large beef ribs left over and once I arrived home I noticed they did not pack those up only the noodles and broth which is pretty outrageous considering you're paying a hefty upcharge for the beef ribs. So be aware when they're packing up your food that they're packing up EVERYTHING.

I ordered a regular Pho Dac Biet, and right away, I noticed the portions were very generous. The…read moreThai basil leaves were absolutely ginormous, and they gave us plenty of them alongside very fresh limes, which I appreciated. The bowl itself came loaded with meat--they definitely weren't skimping to save money here. The meat-to-noodle ratio felt great, and every bite actually had substance instead of leaving me fishing around for toppings. As for the broth, I landed somewhere in the middle. It wasn't quite as clear or light as I personally prefer, leaning toward a fattier, milkier undertone that almost reminded me of a Vietnamese pho take on tonkotsu. The flavor itself was undeniably very good, but the richness may have been a bit too much for me personally. One way I usually judge how much I love a pho broth is whether I want to sip the bowl down to the very end, and this one wasn't quite light enough for me to want to do that. I've had richer and deeper pho flavors elsewhere, but I still appreciated the flavor profile here and could absolutely see why this place is so popular. It feels hearty, comforting, and satisfying in a way that clearly resonates with many people. Despite how packed the restaurant was, the atmosphere ended up being surprisingly pleasant. Service moved very quickly, which honestly impressed me given how busy everything felt. Even with the crowd, I didn't dislike the spacing or setup at all--the restaurant still felt comfortable, and the sound of people enjoying their food all around added to the lively, welcoming energy rather than making it feel overwhelming. Overall, Pho Phong Lưu ended up being one of those places where I completely understood the hype, even if it didn't become my personal favorite pho spot. While the broth leaned richer than my preference, I still enjoyed the experience and definitely look forward to trying other dishes next time.

Soup is flavorful and they are generous with their steak and tendon portions. We will be back to try some more items on the menu.

I love Vietnamese food so I was excited to check it out. It's a counter restaurant and they bring out the food. Thankfully, there was vegan options. I got the veg pho with veg broth with a water. The restaurant is clean, no weird odor, with plenty of seating. The pho arrived to the table. A big bowl of hot soup filled with fresh vegetables. Savory rich broth, whew! You can't get any better than that. The whole meal was delicious! The vegetables were so crisp and cooked to perfection. I didn't get a soup spoon to drink the broth, but had to drink it like cereal from a bowl. The tofu was tasty as well. Very yummy. It tasted like it was Houston quality, but I had forgotten for a second that I was in South Austin. This restaurant did not disappoint!

Living near downtown and East Austin made it surprisingly difficult to find good Vietnamese food,…read morebut luckily, Saigon on 7th served a pretty solid bánh mì. As someone who grew up eating Vietnamese food and has bánh mì often, I wouldn't say it's one of the best I've had. However, it came with all the traditional Vietnamese cold cuts and garnishes you'd expect, and it definitely hit the spot when I didn't want to make the drive up north. I always ordered mine with extra pâté, which increased the price quite a bit, but was worth it for the extra richness and flavor. I also decided to try their ramen once, and it wasn't bad either. Overall, Saigon on 7th is a convenient option when you're in the area and craving Vietnamese bánh mì.

But it also has egg and scallions and pate; overall the combo is satisfying. Separate from takeout, we decided to go for an early dinner. Their Crab Vermicelli Stir Fry is surprisingly sweet, with sweetness as a prominent flavor. It features plenty of crab bits. I also grabbed a Skillet Combo. It came with two runny side up eggs, pate, two types of cured pork, beef gravy, and a handful of cilantro. The baguette came on the side, as did the mixed salad of lettuce and tomato. The salad had some dried shrimp, fish sauce, and a slightly sweet dressing. The restaurant itself is located in the Chinatown Center on N Lamar. It's a small corner shop. Lots of mirrors and glass. The staff are friendly enough. Unfortunately, they've closed, and it looks like another restaurant will be opening up in its place. The situation leaves me unsure about where to go to satisfy savory sticky rice cravings.

You place your order at the front before being seated, which was an easy process. The staff was friendly, and the food came out quickly. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue, and my husband ordered the Sip Pho. Both broths were rich and flavorful. The portions were generous, and they definitely did not skimp on the meat. My Bun Bo Hue came with a beef rib that was tender and delicious. One unique thing was the noodles in the Sip pho bowl--they were slightly thicker than vermicelli, which was different but not a big deal. For drinks, I ordered the Matcha Green Thai Tea. It had an interesting flavor combination, but the matcha taste was a bit overpowered by the green Thai tea. It was still enjoyable, though slightly too floral and sweet for my personal preference. The prices were very reasonable, and they offered a great variety of pho, vermicelli bowls, rice dishes, and appetizers. Next time I visit, I'd love to try the egg rolls since I noticed many people ordering them. The only downside was parking. There are about six spots in front of the restaurant, with additional parking in the back. It was a little difficult to find a spot, likely because we visited on a weekend. Overall, I would definitely come back again.

The restaurant was busy especially since it's so close to UT. I got the vermicelli with lemongrass beef. My friends ordered vermicelli with both beef and short rib, beef bao, and pho. This was my first time having vermicelli with fried egg, but I liked it. The meat tasted like teriyaki beef jerky which I was fine with.The portions were pretty big too, so I had a good amount of leftovers to take home. They have a little sauce bar in case you need extra fish sauce like I usually do. My friends had no complaints about their food and thought it was decent! Sip Pho was good but nothing special in my opinion. I'd probably skip this spot next time I'm in Austin.

I've been to this place many times and every time, I love it!…read more First of all, I just love coming here the seating and the space is so relaxing and such a perfect place to eat and talk. And honestly it's better than any fancy restaurant out there. I love the amount of plants in the space and the TV plays cooking videos and it's so nice to watch while waiting for your food! Speaking of waiting for your food, the food comes out super quick! Within 1 minute of ordering my drink, it came out! And a couple minutes after follows the food. The service is amazing as well, the servers are super sweet and are very quick to serve you and get what you need. The menu offers a bunch of things, appetizers, main dishes, desserts, and the drinks! I love how the desserts and drinks are also Vietnamese (most of the time I notice restaurants tend to have the basic selection of fountain drinks and desserts, but this restaurant has a wide variety of drinks and desserts so you can try something new every time you come here!) Most of all, there's a bunch of vegan dishes which I absolutely love. The food is always delicious I've been trying the vegan dishes recently and I love them a lot (as someone who doesn't like vegan dishes normally)! The chicken pho is also so delicious it tastes better than I make it at home! So much flavor. The drinks are so good as well. They also give you a big portion and I normally have leftovers, but the portion size is amazing for the price that you pay. It's definitely more affordable and such a bang for your buck. This is definitely a spot to try and trust me, you'll probably fall in love! If I was an Austin tourist I would definitely hit up this restaurant. I could go on and on about this restaurant.

It's one of my favorite childhood dishes! I also enjoyed their bun thit nuong cha gio many times as my other go-to order. I believe my mom enjoyed the banh xeo and pho ga when I took her here the first time she visited Austin. Service is usually quick and the music or TV was never too loud. The noise level in general does go up as it gets more busy but not overwhelming. I wish I still lived nearby to get my Viet food fix!

I ordered their bum bo hue $16 and it was delicious. The broth was to die for. It was super flavorful and the spice and salt levels were just right. Not too salty, not too spicy. I've tried tons of bum bo hues in CA and dallas, and I would have to say Tan My is in my top 3, which says a lot! My husband ordered their vermicelli with charcoal broiled beef rice noodle bowl $15 and he says it tastes better than Pho Bac in richardson; iykyk. Overall, 10000% recommend. They are located in a really small plaza with a really small parking lot so I would definitely recommend carpooling or getting there early. Service here was great and it was nice that the young guy would check in on us.
