Hidden gem for sure. Not your typical menu, seems to be a fusion of sorts. So don't expect traditional Vietnamese items, it's more creative. Service was fast, friendly and welcoming. The inside was vey inviting and tastefully decorated. We had the Beef Bulgogi Bao, this was really yummy. The bao was soft and delightful. The beef had a sweet bulgogi glaze that worked really well with it. The rest of the toppings added a nice balance without overpowering the meat. My only wish was that it was 4 baos and not two since they are so small. The highlight was the Firecracker Shrimp. Be warned this is not a spicy dish like you might think from the name. The crispy shrimp was crunchy and not soggy at all, it felt pretty clean and not greasy. It came with salad, rice and a spicy soy sauce and it was just so good. With 12 shrimp, it's definitely shareable between 2 people. Lastly we had the Vietnamese iced coffee which was $6. It tasted like Ovaltine and was mostly ice with just a few sips. I wouldn't recommend it unless the cup size is increased or the price is decreased. So overall, it's a bit pricey. The menu was also a little confusing. We checked online prior to coming and they had a lot of stuff but when at the restaurant, there were only a few items listed which caught us off guard. We actually ended up ordering the wrong item (firecracker shrimp when we actually wanted dynamite shrimp, ultimately it worked out cuz it was delicious but the problem still stands). So those are the only cons I can think off. Other than that, The place was fantastic. Did not think Hutto would have a place of this caliber. We will be back to try the rest of the items, it all looked so good. Definitely will be a repeat customer. 4.5 stars rounded up for now. read more

Wow, the reviews absolutely live up to the hype. The food is seriously NYC-level quality, which really impressed me. I'm from San Francisco and travel to New York monthly for work, so I'd consider myself a bit of a foodie, and this place delivered. Austin really needs more Asian street food spots like this. We were honestly shocked to find something this good in Hutto of all places. The staff was also incredibly kind and welcoming to our two toddlers, which made the experience even better. The food came out quickly and everything we tried was delicious. Definitely worth a 5-star. read more

On recommendation of a years old DAYTRIPPER episode I caught, we drove over 30 miles to CHOPSTICKS, an unassuming strip mall restaurant for BAO. SO GLAD WE DID! The server behind the counter was so sweet and gracious, giving a lovely smile to these first time customers! We explained what brought us there, then noticed the TV playing the episode featuring their cute little place above our heads. We ordered: 2x's bone-in pork rib BAO, and soup of the day, a family sized portion of won ton, and a peach green tea. After getting my tea, (too sweet for my taste, nice with several full slices of peaches accenting the bottom) then the BAO came out. Ok. I'm hooked. The bone slid out just like on TV. The BAO bun was soft and pillowy, but held together to the last bite. So fresh, so delicious and the pork rib was flavorful and tender! Next was the soup. Those won tons were filled with the best pork filling! Ginger, garlic k dominated the perfectly cooked little treasures with a big serving of love. The broth was perfectly seasoned, not overly salted and the exact vehicle to support those won tons. We will return! read more

Anyone searching for a great flavored, authentic, local Asian restaurant, Chopsticks is an amazing deal. For the price you pay, I got a full, hearty, bowl of Hu Tieu soup. We all know ramen and pho but Hu Tieu is another type of Asian soup mostly Vietnamese with egg noodles with a flavorful chicken stock. If your sick, come get it, if your hungry, come get it, if your bored, come get it. Bouncy chewy egg noodles, slices of pork meat, fresh greens, and a flavorful soup base. It's a must to add the $5 on the side pork bones, it's more meat in the bowl. The pork meat is all off the bone, it's been tenderized. After the bowl, my mouth wasn't dry so I have a feeling they didn't add or did add very little msg which I appreciate it versus other dishes I've had and had to drink a bottle of water to moisturize my mouth. read more

This was my second time at Chopsticks, got a to-go order and the food blew me away. The Beef bulgogi bai was like a flavor bomb exploded in your mouth and the Spare ribs was something else too. What I loved the most in the spare ribs bowl was surprisingly the Brussel sprout, they were so good. Needless to say, the flavor was consistent in both the visits. I am going to Chopsticks again read more

This place is so tasty. It's a little bit pricey, honestly, a little too expensive for me.But once in a blue moon to go and have their food, I will definitely go and spend the money to go and do it.I just wouldn't do it all the time. Very oriental ambiance in there very bright, as well as calming.It's kind of hard to explain unless you go and see it for yourself.

Chopsticks is one of those places where you walk inside and are immediately bombarded with a ton of "AI slop" artwork, a chill piano 12-hour YouTube mix playing in the corner, and separate menus: one specifically for dinguses like myself and another for native speakers. You immediately know the food is going to crush. From what I learned from my coworkers, Chopsticks initially was a food truck specializing in Asian street food before moving to their brick-and-mortar location in Hutto. I've been to Chopsticks three times now, and I plan to go back in the near future. The first time I went, I ordered the pork spare ribs bowl with white rice and sautéed Brussels sprouts. I went on a Friday night, riding solo. I also got the Lemongrass Peach Tea. That dinner was a silent reflection of the past, present, and future. The ribs slid right off the bone and into my mouth. The rice was fantastic. I had never had Brussels sprouts before this night. I'm late to the party. Multiple centuries late. How did I not know how good those are? Jeez Louise. The way Chopsticks sautéed them was perfect. I knew I would order it again. As I was shoving the food in my face, one of the owners came by and asked me how it was. All I could give was a thumbs up, or else pork and Brussels sprouts would come out of my mouth. The second time I went, I invited my coworker and we went for lunch. I ordered the exact same thing again. The Lemongrass Peach Tea is perfect too. I cleaned the plate up the second time. The food was just as good. The third time I went, I went with my girlfriend. She thoroughly enjoyed it. I got the Coconut and Kumquat Tea instead of the Lemongrass Peach Tea since she ordered that one. It was pretty good, but the Lemongrass Peach Tea is so good, I think I'll order that again next time. The pork spare ribs bowl was incredible. I feel like I should order it next time. I envision the Pork Spare Ribs Bowl as Nikola Jokić: consistently putting up 20 points (pork spare ribs), 10 rebounds (the white rice), and 10 assists (sautéed Brussels sprouts). This is Hutto's hidden gem. read more

Ordered some food from them when I wasn't feeling very well and man it hit the spot. Their Comfort in a bowl: Hu Tieu Go soup was so flavorful and delicious and gives you that feeling of like an elevated pho or something your mom would make like chicken noodle soup to help you get over being sick. I swear this soup healed me. The noodles were a great texture and their meatballs were a perfect chew. The broth had so much of that herby goodness from the scallions and chives. You get a nice little crunch from the fried pork fat. All in all it's a great meal. I'll definitely be back. read more

Chopsticks is definitely the best Asian restaurant you'll find in Hutto. They offer some unique fusion dishes, combining Chinese, Vietnamese, and Korean ingredients, to name a few. We were able to try out quite a bunch of the local favorites like their Hu Tieu Go Noodle Soup, Signature Wings, Pull it Off Bao, Bulgogi Fries, and our favorite Spareribs Bowl. Every dish was perfectly crafted and tasted wonderful. There's an obvious passion that goes into their food. The service was very friendly and respectful. We appreciated everything about Chopsticks. Definitely going to add them into our monthly rotation. read more

Wow--what an unforgettable dining experience at Chopstick ATX! This place absolutely blew me away with its bold, delicious fusion meals. Every dish is a creative masterpiece, clearly crafted by a chef who knows how to mix flavors in the most exciting ways. But let's talk about those ribs--tender doesn't even begin to cover it. The meat was so perfectly cooked that the bone practically slid right off without effort. Every bite was juicy, flavorful, and left me wanting more... though I didn't leave a single bite behind. Clean plates all around! Chapstick ATX is the kind of place you'll want to tell everyone about--and then keep as your own little secret. Five stars, hands down. Can't wait to go back! read more

Chopsticks is a recent addition to the Hutto food scene. Just down the road from Hutto highschool in a new stripmall. If offers Asian fusion dishes in a clean, bright restaurant I opted for the beef mango bowl (flank steak tossed with crunchy mango, carrot, onion in Szechuan sauce with steamed rice) and a vietnamese ice coffee. It was very good. My fellow diners all went with the Pork Spareribs Bowl (4 pieces of tender pork ribs with a tangy Asian barbecue sauce served with white rice and sautéed brussel sprouts. It was the star of the show! The service was prompt and friendly. Highly recommended! read more

Chopsticks - Beef mango bowl - Vietnamese Near Me - Hutto, Texas

I really loved this place a lot. I did take out because I had a long day and wanted to try a bunch of food at home. Restaurant was cozy and seemed clean. The lady at the counter was so incredibly sweet . I ordered the garlic butter wings, the chili jam wings, the cheese fries, the bulgoli bao, the pork belly bar, and the mango beef. The Mango beef was definitely the star and my favorite of the dishes. The julienned mango and carrot were a perfect balance to the savory spiciness of the sauce, which was a perfect heat level imo. The beef was sliced thin, and very tender and delicious. The bulgolgi bao was delicious, the meat tender, and the mayo, pickled onions, and cilantro tasted great on top. I found the meat a bit sweeter than I would like, but since I split the food and only ate one, I didn't find it overwhelming. The pork belly bao was delishly rich and fatty, which I love. I loved the spice on tbe meat, which I think may have been Chinese 5 spice, I think there was a hint of cinnamon. The wings were both awesome. I think I might have preferred the garlic, over the chili jam if I had to pick but both were crispy and perfectly cooked. I enjoyed the fries on the drive home and I really liked them a lot. I wish they could have put more cheese powder because it went super well with the sweet potato fries. I really loved this place and wanna get the Mango beef again along with the bulgoli fries next time. I spent about 90 dollars tip included and found it reasonable, especially for the quality, because my husband and I were able to eat a well sized meal for 2 days along with some white rice. read more

Stopped in with my son for lunch with no expectations. Small restaurant, friendly atmosphere and the young lady at the register was pleasant and super helpful!! After a brief discussion, we decided on the signature wings with Chile jam, mango beef, and the firecracker shrimp bowl. Libation consisted of fresh green tea and tamarind juice. They have no soda options. The wings were amazing!!! The chile jam is spicy but not so overwhelming that it subtracts from the flavor. Great balance. The mango beef bowl was delicious mixing the sweet with the savory. Excellent pairing. The firecracker shrimp bowl, served with sticky rice and a salad with pickled onions was spicy and tasty. If I had to pick a winner of the three, it would definitely be those signature wings. But the shrimp bowl is a close second. My son felt the mango beef was the winner without question! . I think they have something for everyone. Located in Hutto, North of Austin. Check them out! read more

This corner space on Chris Kelley is a great location to hit on tge way home! They have a small menu but it packs a punch! We ordered 4 meals, and 4 drinks, the bill was $90 so be prepared for that! I ordered the mango beef and it was way spicy! I couldn't finish mine as my my lips were on fire! I was able to finish my daughters ribs though and I will undoubtedly get that next time. The shrimp meal was a bit small and didn't fill my husband. The drinks, we won't get, none of cared for them so I'll stick with water!! The people were extremely nice and asked on multiple occasions if we were ok. It's a great place to grab dinner on your way home! read more

They use way too much sugar to substitute for bone broth. This is how some place does it to save cost, less bones and more sugar. But unfortunately all the sugar really irritates my throat and is terrible for your health. read more

This local eatery started out as a food truck and now has a location in Hutto. The restaurant has a unique array of pan Asian fare, all freshly prepared in their kitchen. You can definitely taste the quality. The little pork belly tacos are delicious. The meat is tender and flavorful and the buns aren't dry. They have a wonderful coconut water lemonade they I highly recommend but I forgot to get a picture of it. It's refreshing and not overpoweringly sweet. The staff is also SO nice and friendly.

We've been following Chopsticks since their food truck days, and we're very happy to see that they were opening a brick and mortar that's not too far from their OG location. The menu is definitely on the smaller side, but mostly staying true to Viet street food, which I appreciate. Stir fry corn is always a good appetizer, can't go wrong with either dry spicy noodles or noodle soup. The rice bowls are fine, but we personally prefer the noodles. The peach lemongrass tea is very refreshing and not too sweet. The space is clean and modern, and they always serve us with a smile. Very much looking forward to what they will do next and where they'll take their menu! Glad to have them as a food option nearby! read more

Tried this for the first time last week after driving by and looking at the menu online. I should be embarrassed about how much I ate, but it was all so good! The firecracker shrimp's breading was perfectly crispy, the wings with the chili jam was the perfect amount of spice, and the pork belly bang mi was so savory. It took about twenty minutes to get my order during prime lunch hour but it was fresh. I can't wait to go back to try the bao and ribs! read more

Some of the best egg rolls I have eaten. Crunchy outside thinly greased and really good inside. Wontons also a must. Attended an event and they had a pretty long line. I see why.

I was really excited to try this place since their menu looked innovative, but what I received was a mixed bag. The cheddar sweet potato fries just tasted like regular sweet potato fries to me. They could have been crispier for my taste, but the flavor was good. Don't think it was worth the $8 price tag. I was surprised that the corn was made with dehydrated shrimp. The description had me expecting fresh shrimp. It was okay, but I wouldn't get it again. For the entrèe we had the firecracker shrimp bowl. The shrimp themselves were probably the best part of the meal. I just wish it had been assembled better. The rice, onions, and sauce were all good. But they put the hot shrimp right on top of the spring mix resulting in a soggy mess. Lastly, the green tea was delicious, just a bit smaller than I expected. $6. I may give this place a second chance, but would definitely try different items next time. read more

We were looking for some place to dine that we had not been to before, and found Chopsticks. My son had a bowl with corn, a "salad" and THE most tender little pork riblets! They slid off the bone. He also got a bowl of amazing sweet potato fries. The salty/sweet flavor with cinnamon was beyond fabulous, I hated to eat the last one, they are so hot and fresh, crispy. I am drooling for some right now! I had Banh Mi and while smaller than I have had before, it was also more flavorful . If I had a suggestion, it would be that the servings should be bigger for the price. The roll was perfectly crispy, but small. It is clean and the staff very friendly. I would go again, but the prices are a bit too high to make it a weekly favorite. read more

Chopsticks recently graduated from food truck to brick-and-mortar! Really enjoyed their food at the food truck so was excited to check them out again.
