incredible food, I've been looking for an authentic Vietnamese restaurant for a bit. great hospitality, and incredible food. can't wait to be back soon!! read more

Came back for the second time and this was truly a place where we can call home. We all got the pho tai and it was truly an authentic bowl of pho. The owner was so sweet and came out to talk to us. My friends and I kept raving about this place because the hospitality was amazing. As nursing students we can never find a place to study but here it was a different vibe. Very welcoming and very busy. Thank you for letting us try your food and we will decently be back to see the owner again :) read more

Man oh man, what a hard review to write here. Obviously I came for the name, what a fun and funny name. My family and our friends who were in town from England. We HAD to go so they could tell everyone at home. We got there and it was so silent in the dining room. Silent like a library.... My friends young children all of a sudden, by comparison to the vacuum of noise, sounded like steam trains blaring through intersections nonstop. We should by the reception counter for about 5 minutes before one of the staff finally welcomed us and told us where to sit. 3 other staff members had seen us and were visibly NOT making eye contact. Now, we are sat and going over the menu. About 6 minutes later, our waiter had come to ask if he could borrow one of our 5 menus for a new customer, explaining they don't have many menus. (Well, sure, no problem, we will share.) **weird though** *The waiter is on something. His mannerisms are weird, maybe he's just high, but he did some weird things with his foot and he sounded stoned. * Ok, he's back to take our order. Honestly he is nice as can be and patient. My family ordered both types of spring rolls, a dry vermicelli noodle, a pork, rice, egg dish and a #44 beef pho. He explained in great detail, a soursop beverage that my son wanted to try. It gets fun here. In a few spots in the restaurant, they advertise buttons/pins and shirts you can buy. How fun and funny to have a in that says "I survived Bich Nga". The signs say to pick which number of button you want and tell the waiter, so I tell him I'd like the number 1. Well. They don't sell them there. He says to order off of their Etsy or their social media. What a big bummer. The name is too funny to not have this for sale right there. My friend was especially bummed to not have one to bring home to England. Oh well I guess... they're missing out on this awesome way to make some extra money. Next he took my friends family's order, a pork and egg dish, a duck soup and a chicken noodle soup for their young kids. The food came out as it was done so it left our meals a little staggered but that's ok with me. Our spring rolls were super good, the dry vermicelli was good but a bit unexciting, it came with a couple sauces that were fantastic. The pork, egg, rice dish was phenomenal, seriously soooo good. Then he brought out my friends family's food. He came over about 10 minutes later to check on us and I told him we were still missing our pho. He was shocked. Went away for another 10 minutes and came back and checked on us. We were pretty much done by now. I told him we never got our pho but to go ahead and take it off the check. He was shocked and said "no, no" he came back with the duck soup that our friend had ordered and told us that they accidentally gave our soup to our friend and here is his soup.....(?) I don't want duck soup. My friend was cracking up as her husband had been commenting the whole meal about how he did not like his soup(my pho). He was full so handed a gently consumed bowl of beef pho towards our side. We tried it and it really needed our personal touch but as we were full now, I don't feel I can honestly review the pho. It was bland as it sat. So, duck soup, we had to try it as we were paying for it. It was good. Very oily as duck is, but tasty. The duck itself was not my favorite but the broth was very flavorful. Ok, another 20 minutes has gone by and we don't have a check. The library patrons are growing more and more annoyed with the freight train of children who are bored off their butts now. My friend and I take the kids out of there to freely make noise in the parking lot. On our way out, we walk past the "cashier" who again, AVOIDS EYE CONTACT. ???? We were so excited to be out of there. The whole vibe is off. The food is great. If you're looking for a perplexing experience that comes free with good food, I recommend you try this place. If you're looking for good food, great staff and a great ambiance, save yourself from coming here. I wanted to write a rave review but man was it just too awkward. read more

We visited Bích Nga and they were clearly short staffed, so food and drinks took a while to come out. That part was a bit frustrating, especially since everything didn't arrive at the same time. That said, the house special vermicelli noodle dish was absolutely fabulous. The portion was huge and easily shareable, which ended up working out in our favor since we shared it while waiting for my partner's meal. I'm honestly glad it was that big because it held us over. If you have some extra time and don't mind a slower pace or dishes coming out separately, the food is definitely worth it. read more

Cafe Bích Nga - in front of restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Pinellas Park, Florida

Bih Nga in Pinellas Park is so good. One of my go-to pho spots when I want something comforting and flavorful. The broth is really rich and you can tell it's been cooked properly, and the portions are solid. I usually just stick with pho and it always hits. It's a simple, no-frills place, but that's kind of the charm. The owner is this older lady and she's genuinely the sweetest--so kind and welcoming every time I go. Parking is easy and the service is quick even when it's busy. Definitely a spot I keep coming back to. read more

Had amazing time to support the wonderful lady! Come try Vietnamese food here! The pho and the Hu tieu! Also if you need a sweet treat, try their Sam Bo luong and Che ba mau. It's traditional Vietnamese dessert to end the meal! The English interpretation of those desserts might throw you off, but it's definitely worth the try lol read more

Food surprisingly really good. Came for the funny name but stayed for the delicious Vietnamese food. Not fancy but definitely an authentic hole in the wall. Parking in the back. Pho is $18 but it is a very big bowl. A bit pricey but big bowl. The noodles were shorter and a bit more broken in length than I'm used to but it didn't take away from the taste. read more

Great service, great authentic Vietnamese food, and very friendly staff... the ultimate hat trick. I was in the Clearwater area visiting a buddy for spring break and had the itch for authentic viet food. This place did not miss. I would return and recommend for anyone in the mood for some good Pho. The owner is super humble and friendly as well which I can always respect and appreciate. read more

What can I say about cafe bich nga that hasn't already been said about some of the finest dining establishments in this hemisphere of the world. I came in a weary traveler and left a new member of the family. The food was outstanding and the service and company were the best I've had in a while it's very refreshing to find that places like this still exist. I'm just asked Mrs. Lieng to make me something special and she didn't disappoint. Will def return. read more

5 Stars! Authentic homemade Vietnamese dishes. This is authentic as authentic can get without traveling to Vietnam. Always delicious! Just be patient with service as foods are made fresh, it's definitely worth the wait. read more

OMG I have never see a regular Pho in such a large size! Thought it was some kind of food challenge! We came here on a Friday during lunch. what a great find! The Pho is really tasty and among the best we ever had. Super friendly service. Will definitely be back again, and again! read more

I've heard about this place a couple times in the past month or so. And my family I wanted to try it out. Upon walking in it was not the best smelling place and following up from there the service was very slow too. It took us about 20 minutes just to get water. And from there, maybe an extra 20 minutes before we could place our food order. And it was only one lady working so I can understand how that can be. I've seen people walk in and walk out when it took too long for them to get served. The food was OK. It was nothing to rave about, but at least when we were able to speak to the waitress, she was friendly and nice. Maybe I'll go back to give it another try since I've heard other people like it read more

Came because Our Future Florida governor told us he was hosting an event here. I Tried Bich Nga food for the first time and I have to say, food is outstanding! So glad I ate here! Also the Staff are great! read more

Great food-- staff was very pleasant and gave good recommendations. Wait and price were very fair. I'll definitely be coming bacK!

On repeat: If you haven't visited Pinellas Park, then you haven't had real Vietnamese food in Tampa Bay. Sorry, not sorry. Your entire community urges you to take the 30 minute drive to one of the most valuable cultural enclaves that exists in the area, to at least try the most delicious and authentic food. Learn something new and be suprised by all that your local food scene has to offer. And, if you live in St Pete and can't leave DTSP, wtf bruh... Each restaurant has their specialties. You'll see many people here ordering their famous Bún Bò Huế and Bò kho. I find their soup dishes to be overseasoned and too salty. Some people note the broths as "complex," to me, just overseasoned. So, I visit specifically for their: 1 Dry Hủ Tiếu with both egg and rice noodles, served with sauce and soup on the side. 2 Cháo Gà - chicken rice porridge read more

these people are the SWEETEST and the food is TASTY!! just come try it yourself!! The ambience is very nice and clean!!

Service was quite underwhelming, five dishes ordered for only three to arrive to our table after 1.5 hrs. Food did not justify the extremely long wait. read more

This place is amazing. The food is great. The pho is great. Service is probably the best thing about it all. Highly recommend

The broth here is so rich and flavorful! I've been to three other pho places and the broth was just bland...not this place. Hands down the broth was so dark and good. Exactly what I prefer. Plus they give you a lot of meat. The bowls are honestly huge. I'll be back here for sure! read more

This is authenticity at it's best. Saw a video from a foody on IG. The craze was about the pronunciation of the name of the establishment. I could care less I came for the food! Hubby and I saw the IG post and impromptuly visited for a late lunch yesterday. We came in and was greeted by Chad and seated ourselves. Not many people there but our food and everyone else waiting took a bit to arrive. However, that was water under the bridge once I tasted it. I had the shrimp spring rolls and hubby had the pork. Freshly handmade and the FRESH mint and lemongrass made it so tasteful with the peanut sauce on the side. My husband had one of the meat pho. The size of bowl is intimidating the portion was graciously bountiful and not even the large size. I had the vermicelli with grilled chicken more fresh mint like a cucumber salad with this interesting light sweet and spicy sauce. Hubby had their homemade lemonade which was syrupy sweet. My husband didn't like it as he also said it tasted like salt. It was extra sweet and probably could make 5 decent lemonades. I want more of everything on that menu so obviously we will be back. If you are in a rush or do not care to wait for fresh AND good food this is not the place for your. If I had to say anything bad the stained ceiling tiles and one missing was a turn off. I never got a refill on my water or even asked if I wanted more. But hey if I wanted more I could've asked too right?! read more

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Cafe Bich Nga! The staff were super friendly and helpful both service wise and the ambiance of the place. Our waiter recommended us the Bun Bo Hue and the Pork rice and they were delicious! Best Bun Bo Hue I have ever had. I would come back again. read more

Possibly the richest pho I've tried so far in Florida! Pho comes with brisket, flank, tripe and meatballs. Pho also has cilantro and onion in it. The broth is super rich in flavor. I can definitely taste all the spices in the broth. They fill it to the brim. I asked for some lime and extra cilantro for my pho. As for noodles they use thin chopped up rice noodles. The bowl is also a decent size and for $2 more they have a larger bowl! Wifey got the beef stew. Also filled to the brim. Meat is super tender. Broth tastes delicious, very flavorful with beef. The restaurant itself is a little run down in the inside. Old colors, lighting and furniture. Guy working in the front was kind and helpful. We had to wait a long time for the food but it came out excellent! Overall we really enjoyed the food. read more

Been wanting to try this place out, and we finally did. Not gonna lie, this place a has a lot of potential. W got here around 7:30ish PM and didn't get our food till 8:20pm. So we were expecting fresh good food if it takes that long. As we were waiting i looked around the restaurant and it definitely needs a lot of work. Those curtains gotta go. The restaurant needs better and inviting color so it doesn't feel suffocating inside. Roof needs to be checked and there seems to be a leakage. Food came in and got a massive bowl of Pho for my husband and Beef stew for myself. Food was really good tbh. besides my bowl having too much soup, meat was tender, broth was good, everything tasted fresh, and noodles were cooked to perfection. My husband's pho was also really good. portion was great, lots of meat & noodles..except the noodles were cut. The young lad that was working there was very nice. He was attentive and provided great service. Like what i said, this place has a lot of potential, considering the past reviews. I would like to see this restaurant strive for the best again! read more

The food is really good! It's a go to for Vietnamese food everytime we have a craving. As I grew up on Vietnamese food, I would say this is pretty authentic and the best you'll find in the area. It seems unassuming but it's cute and homey inside. The service might be a little slow because they make every single meal as fresh as it can be! I got the pork and rice noodles and it was delicious. I have heard the bun bo hue and bun rieu are also solid soup options. I'll be back to try the pho! read more

I have to say this was one of the more pleasant places I have had pho. The exterior is very misleading, as inside it is very nice with solid atmosphere. The wait staff were nice and attentive. I had gotten my food very quickly along with its toppings and sides. The noodles were cooked to perfection and the broth was very delicious. Very big portion sizes so keep that in mind. Overall I'd recommend this to anyone in the st Pete/Tampa area! read more

Cafe Bích Nga - Pho Thai - Vietnamese Near Me - Pinellas Park, Florida

Very mediocre. There was flys all over the dining room. About the only cool part of it was if you looked up into the windows on the outside, there was pigeons that had made a nest in their sign, and you could watch the pigeons. The food wasn't anything special, tasted the same as pretty much any other low level Vietnamese restaurant. I came here for the name, I've seen several TikTok. The employees were very friendly in the TikTok's. They weren't very friendly when I was there. Very to the point, never came and checked in. Not impressed. read more

I flew outside of Cali to visit Cafe Bích Nga for there noodles. It was better than anything in my neighborhood. No other Bích Nga can replace this location. read more

As a seasoned bachelor. I am always on the lookout for great service and ambiance for date nights. I need a restaurant that offers authentic Viet flavor in a sophisticated package. Cafe Bich Nga offers all of the above and more. Ask the waiter for the Bun Bo Hue, and you will fin yourself transported from the streets of Pinellas Park, to the traditional street markets of Saigon. I could go on an on but none of my words could service the quality of this spot. Best Viet food in Florida. read more

Will always come back for the BBH here. The only thing about this restaurant is it will take a bit for the food to come out. Otherwise will be a regular staple for BBH! read more
