    Tamarind Rolls - Gi cun Chay (2)Summer Rolls - Gi cun (2)   Vietnamese Ice C Ph

    This place never disappoints, the staff are super quick and friendly, their food is amazing, and I love their outdoor seating in the warmer months. I'm addicted to their iced coffee and tamarind rolls!

    Caphe Banh Mi is an ideal stop for this current cold weather spell if you're anywhere near Alexandria virginia. Their fresh pho and flavorful banh mi will warm you right up! Service was excellent with our water cups never going empty and our food arriving so quickly after ordering. The general ambiance of the restaurant feels authentic, for lack of a better word. You step in and immediately feel welcome as the smells from the kitchen waft to your seat. I will be back for more!

    Pho is one of my favorite dishes and Caphe Banh Mi is one of my top spots! The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating. The food is very quick to come out. The staff aren't too friendly but work swiftly, which is great. The pho is amazing with lots of fresh ingredients. I don't think there is AC in the summer.

    Rainy winter Saturday makes the perfect day to get pho. Apparently everyone else has the same idea lol. There is seating inside but heads up tables are close together and I wouldn't recommend this for large groups. This is more of a fast casual dining experience, get in get out and get going. Service is quick to keep the tables moving and it's popular in the neighborhood as there were many pick up orders coming in while I dined. Pho will cost you around $15 for the small house to $22(?) for the most expensive bowl. They also have bahn mi and noodle bowls. Decent prices and service, I would visit again.

    This place is a great place for Viet comfort food. The service is exactly what you expect from most small neighborhood restaurants. The ambience is casual and the tucked away outdoor seating from bit street is very nice. Great for family, friends and casual dates. The food is excellent but note this is not meant for fancy Michelin star food. Just something you like to eat anytime. Sloppy Viet- saucy and meaty that I prefer more than a Philly Steak... a Asian take on - Philly Steak for an Asian Lemongrass Chicken - standard affairs with chick juicy and perfectly grilled and spiced. Nothing surprising, just good.

    My husband and I wanted pho for dinner and we found this cute little spot in old town Alexandria. The pho and banh mi sandwich were so good! Def recommend this place for a date night or with friends. They have outside seating and in door. I also love they have small and large options available.

    Another amazing meal. I had my go-to lemongrass Banh Mi. Typical excellent service. It was such a beautiful February. On warmer days, I enjoy their sidewalk seating. The Banh Mi are excellent. The bread is always so, so crunchy. It was packed full of flavor. Sloppy Viet Bo Bam (spicy red curry ground beef) and the Phoenix Ga (Lemongrass Chicken) are my favorites. Don't forget to ask for extra jalapeños! I'm not a big Pho person but always hear great first hand reviews from my group. This is on my Old Town top 10 rotation for sure. Check them out!

    Spotted this place from Google maps. So glad I did. The food was great. Beer and wine options abundant. My friend is vegetarian and she loved her food as well. Would come again

    Vermicelli and salad
    Alan N.

    High quality Vietnamese restaurant right off of King's street. Convenient and central location. Service and food are both high quality, and all staff are Vietnamese. I've tried the vermicelli and pho. Vermicelli is somewhat of a dry version of the pho (with some additions), and my preferred choice between the two. Worth checking the place out.

    Pork Belly Bahn Mi
    Joe S.

    Pork Belly Bahn Mi - fresh, crunchy bread - chewy pork belly - pâté rich in flavor Overall, a combination of distinct ingredients that contribute to a pleasant meal. Service/Ambiance - quick to be seated despite high traffic Critique - have menus ready once patrons are seated

    Chicken Ph - Ph Ga
    Jack G.

    My first bite was a taste sensation and locked in my opinion of 5-star food! The freshness of the ingredients shone thru! Nothing extravagant about the decor, but there is pleasant outdoor seating (in addition to the cozy indoor dining). Pleasant, attentive and quick service.

    Pho Filet Mignon

    jesus fucking christ this is the best pho i've ever had in my life i just had to end my yelp hiatus just to review this place wow im getting emotional

    Pho filet mignon
    Maria K.

    Came on a Friday night and got lucky to get a table right away, however by the time we left there was a line of people waiting outside to get seated. The space itself is not very big, but they make good use of all the tables. The filet mignon pho was good and the filet mignon meat was delicious and tender, however I wish the broth was a little more flavorful. My boyfriend and I split the grilled pork banh mi which was also good. While the food is good, the prices are definitely on the higher side for pho. I wouldn't go out the way to come here again, especially since there are many pho restaurants in NOVA, but it's a great Viet food option in old town.

(fair warning they do sprinkle some peanuts on there, look out, if you are allergic)! In case you don't want to read the whole thing: 10/10 pho. The portion is so worth it! The flavor is amazing and so hearty yet refreshing. Also I am 99% sure my food came within minutes of ordering because I did not even get the chance to open my book. The way I rate pho, are two things, one, the noodles, and two, the broth's flavor. Noodles: Because nothing hurts more than a yummy broth with some overcooked noodles that breaks when you try to eat them. Pho Saigon Pearl is doing it right, their noodles are perfectly cooked, you can pick them up and they're not clumpy, they don't fall apart (literally God Bless) Broth: bone broth is soooo good for your overall health and every time when I am feeling slightly under the weather, I look for a good ole pho place for some yummy broth. No one wants flavorless and greasy broth, and it's awkward to ask for salt, but LET ME TELL YOU GIRLLLLLL THE BROTH (fantastic give me 14 of em) it is sooooo perfectly seasoned, it is perfectly salty and gives you that beautiful completed flavor of meat and veggies. The ambiance is nice, lots of lighting, clean interior and spacious set up. Overall: 10/10 would recommend. Literally kisses all around because I already feel better I CANNOT wait to come back again!

I was super impressed and dare I say blown away by just about everything! From the Tom Ka soup right through to the Drunken Noodles - each dish we had was packed with flavours that were bold, authentic, and beautifully balanced. The service was great! Despite it being super busy - our sever was very attentive (especially on a holiday evening), and even came to let us know the kitchen was closing and if we wanted desserts, we had 10-15 mins to place the order/s. The venue itself is really unique/trendy - I would describe it as a fun, unexpected blend of a cozy French bistro aesthetic with a Thai twist--warm, stylish, and welcoming. A total gem in Old Town & I can't wait to go back!

Very good. Normal spicy is probably too mild for me. Good flavors. I like to get a side of broccoli to add more veggies to the dish. It comes with broccoli already but I like a little more.

Portions are generous and inexpensive. Note: there are two tables in the restaurant if you prefer to dine in. We ordered egg drop soup, crispy pork wontons, Mongolian Chicken and Mongolian Beef. The egg drop soup was better than your typical egg drop soup, with a flavorful broth and silky but still hearty texture. The wontons were packed with pork and came with a tasty bright red dipping sauce that complimented the wontons nicely. The Mongolian Beef and Mongolian Chicken are the same dish, with the only difference being the meat. These dishes were very well prepared with just the right amount of onion, scallion and sauce. The beef had a delicious slightly smoky flavor and was cut into nicely shaped pieces. The Mongolian dishes automatically come with white rice. Speaking of the rice, it had a great texture and just the right amount of moisture. Take out orders may take up to a half hour for them to be prepared, but it is well worth the wait. We will be back.
