    Came here for another try for lunch. As before food was ok, nothing to go crazy about. The shrimp papaya salad was good with flavor, chicken rice dish was ok.

    It's a great place for a quick meal. I stopped here for a bowl of pho. The price was affordable, the portion was generous. I had a hearty meal of soup with beef and more. The service was good and efficient. The ambiance was casual.

    Bun Thit Heo Nuong (with add-on Spring Roll)
    Sandy L.

    Tried this place with my family for lunch the other day and appreciated the number of unique menu items that are not commonly found on other local Vietnamese restaurants' menus, such as Banh Cuon (Vietnamese crepes), Bun Bo Hue (Spicy lemongrass beef noodle soup), and Thit Quay Gion Bi (Crispy pork belly), for example. The restaurant is located in a strip mall in the Twinbrook area, with a decent number of parking spaces available in a lot right out front. The interior has nicely spaced out tables in the middle of the dining room for medium-sized parties, and some half booths along the perimeter, so no need to worry about crowding or sitting too close to other tables. Service was friendly and our food took a little bit of time to come out - not as long as it would take if it were freshly made - but still took some time as the wrapper of the Spring Roll seemed to taste freshly deep fried (despite the filling being precooked), although I think most items were just reheated. As for the authenticity of the restaurant, I am on the fence about this, as the fish sauce barely tasted like anything. Usually, the tell-tale sign of an authentic Vietnamese restaurant for me is determined by the fish sauce - it should be a balance between sweet, salty, sour, spicy and umami. The fish sauce here was neither of those flavors despite the variety of authentic dishes they offer. Overall, this establishment is a good introduction to some traditional Vietnamese dishes, but enhancing the flavor profile of the fish sauce would definitely make the food taste more authentic. I will come back if I am in the area and craving a certain Vietnamese dish that I can't find elsewhere, but it's likely I won't become a regular here.

    Banh cuon

    The Banh Cuon dish I had was pretty good. It was different because it came with meatballs like the Bun Cha Ha Noi dish. I would get this dish again! It was a big portion so you can share with others as well. The Bun Bo Hue on the other hand wasn't good, and I wouldn't get it again. It tasted like normal pho broth with a scoop of sate for coloring. The restaurant is very big and spacious.

    Quick dinner first time there quick in and out. The service was wonderful, and the food was delicious. Being a big fan of iced coffee I had to get it and it was Amazing. I think that the ambiance is perfect for its size. It's not overwhelming. Overall the food was very good, fresh, the perfect temperature, and the portion was perfect. I will have to go back and try many of my favorites which are on the menu.

    Bahn cuon's texture is decent, nice and thin but I feel that the filling is not as nice as others I've had from Eden ctr, the vietnamese center. The crab spring roll is decent but I probably should just stick w regular spring roll. I like the grilled beef that comes w Bahn cuon. I don't like the broth, I feel like the anise flavor is too strong. Very fast service and overall it is decent food.

    Hello Vietnam in Rockville has this amazing dish Banh Cuon Thit Nuong - basically grilled meatballs and pork in sweet broth with rice crepes with ground pork filling. Definitely unique and one of the few places in the DMV that has it. Service was super friendly and fast. Place is bright and open and a little slow on a Monday night. Yes the prices are kinda steep for Viet food, but it's made up with their portions and the quality of meats. The pho had massive slices of beef. N the bun with grilled pork had so much that my wife needed help finishing with the meat.

    Pho Bo Dac Biet

    I went to Hello Vietnam for a quick lunch after a long day of traveling. I was immediately greeted upon walking in and shown to a table. We decided to order the P4 and our food came quickly. The broth of the pho was delicious and the aromatics used to flavor the broth really came through. The person I was with ordered a fruit smoothie and although it came out a little later than our food, it was tasty and was a great compliment to balance out the smokiness of the pho. The restaurant is located in a shopping center with ample parking and overall I would definitely return.

    Special Crispy Spring Rolls with Crab Meat
    Karen Y.

    I have a few friends who really like this restaurant so decided go check it out. I ordered the spring rolls with crab meat which were a delight and the pho with brisket. It's a okay broth, but not the best broth I've had in the area so I likely won't be back for this. They do have other menu items that aren't normally found in the area like caramlised fish, banh cuon, banh mi bo ne which I may come back to try.

    Jenny Mae S.

    Reliably one of my favorite go-tos for Vietnamese food. I usually switch it up between a bowl of pho (one size only: LARGE ) and a bun nuong and am always satisfied with whichever one won that day. The flavors are wonderful and balanced and portions are perfect. The service is always prompt and pleasant. We've always been lucky to eat in on the evenings when they're not too busy so have enjoyed their relaxed environment. Will happy continue to frequent for years to come.

    Armistead J.

    I love this spot! The food comes out within 5 minutes of ordering, and it is truly delicious. Every bite is comforting & delicious. The service is outstanding and wonderful. The menu is also extremely affordable- much more so than what you'll find in restaurants in DC. Definitely worth it if you are out in the Rockville area for some good and affordable Vietnamese food. You can't go wrong with any of the pho's, and the spring rolls were delicious.

    Melissa B.

    Delicious pho in the Rockville area! Fast and friendly pickup service. The broth was delicious, lots of flavor and some warm spices too. Comes with all the fixings!

    Banh Mi with tofu
    Molly K.

    I recently recommend my coworker visit Hello Vietnam for a great bowl of Pho, and he came back raving about his experience. I then realized I completely forgot to leave this business a 5 star review. Hello Vietnam is such a treat to visit as a vegan. Their menu is well labeled with what items are vegan friendly. I am so thankful that they have a vegetable broth option for their pho. It is rare to find authentic Vietnamese food that accommodates vegans, and I am so thankful they put in the effort to be inclusive to all diets. The price and quality at Hello Vietnam is beyond compare. I shared an appetizer and 2 entrees with my friend and we had so much food to take home! The banh mi was overflowing with delicious vegetables l, the noodle dish we tried was so flavorful, and the side of pho broth was delightful. Our service was attentive and fast. The atmosphere was nice. I have no complaints and am eager to return with my husband for another fantastic experience.

It's Honestly So Hard To Find Something Quick & Actually Good For Breakfast These Days. I Happened To Be In The Area And Remembered This Spot Was On My "Saved Places" List, So I Decided To Finally Give It A Try Especially Since I Was On A Time Crunch This Morning (Shoutout To St. Patrick's Day ). My Day Definitely Felt Lucky & Even More Blessed! Parking Was Easy Since It Was Early Morning. It's Street Parking With A Meter App, & I Believe There's Also A Nearby Lot For Busier Times. Walking In, The Space Felt Simple Yet So Inviting. Super Clean, Calm, & Just A Pleasant Environment Overall. The Kind Of Place That Immediately Feels Peaceful. While Waiting In Line, I Couldn't Help But Notice The Display Of Pastries.... Absolutely Beautiful. From Thin Cookies To Buttery, Golden Croissants And Donuts... Everything Looked Fresh, Perfectly Made, & Honestly Hard To Choose From. Plus, Prices Were Very Reasonable For The Quality. AVOCADO EGG & CHEESE CROISSANT SANDWICH - $12 Fluffy Scrambled Eggs, Fresh Sliced Avocado, Swiss & American Cheese On A Buttery, Perfectly Toasted Croissant With A Slightly Sweet & Savory Aioli. Let Me Tell You This Was By Far The Best Croissant Breakfast Sandwich I've Ever Had!!!!!!!! No Exaggeration. My Jaw Literally Dropped. Every Bite Was Rich, Flavorful, And Perfectly Balanced. The Croissant Was Flaky Yet Soft, The Eggs Were Light & Fluffy, & That Aioli Brought Everything Together. Kisses To The Chef ‍ Because They Really Did Their Thing On This. WOW. CHOCOLATE DIPPED BISCOTTI - $3 House-Made, Buttery, Crunchy, & So Satisfying. The Chocolate Side Was Rich And Delicious, But Honestly? Even The Plain Side Was Incredible On Its Own. Perfect Pairing With A Hot Drink Or Just As A Snack. HOT COCOA (Oatmilk) - $5 They Didn't Have Whipped Cream, So I Wasn't Expecting Much... But Wow, I Was So Wrong. It Came In A Nice-Sized Mug With A Beautiful Heart Design On Top... That Alone Stole My Heart . But Then The First Sip? Smooth, Rich, & So Damn Good. It Completely Surprised Me In The Best Way. Definitely One Of Those "Don't Judge It Until You Try It" Moments. The Staff Were Nice And Helpful. You Can Tell They Take Their Time To Get Everything Right, From The Food To The Overall Experience & It's Absolutely Worth The Wait. I'm Honestly Still In Disbelief At How Good Everything Was. The Food, The Atmosphere, The Experience... All Top Tier. I'm Lowkey Mad I Didn't Come Here Sooner, But This Is Definitely One Of My New Favorite Spots. I'll Be Putting Everyone I Know Onto This Place. I'll Absolutely Be Back & I'm Already Hoping They Open A Location Closer To Me.

Cookies were tasty. We got the chocolate chunk cookie and the chocolate oatmeal cookie. Line wasn't long at 1PM on a Friday. I also felt like the cashier was just trying to get us in and out very quickly but I understand because the line does get long. Just used to a more chill, personable experience. They have designed laptop zones so the regular seating can be screen free which is super cool! Next time will try to get food! I would come back.

You pick your pastries from the self-serve shelves. Some items looked like they had been sitting out for a while and were a little dry, while others had just been restocked and looked much fresher. Most of the selection leans toward buttery, laminated pastries, such as croissants, Danishes, and croffles rather than baguettes or rolls. They also have fresh cakes displayed near the counter. The two pastries we had were both good and satisfying. The pain aux raisins had a moist texture with a gentle sweetness. The croffle itself was nicely buttery and delicious, although the cream on top was a bit too heavy for my taste. Prices felt reasonable for the quality and location. Service was quick and friendly. Unfortunately, the coffee was only lukewarm, which was a letdown. Parking really depends on the time and day. We were lucky to find a spot right in front, but the plaza gets busy since there are several popular stores/restaurants, so it can be competitive if you're aiming to park close by. Overall, I'm happy to have another French-inspired Asian bakery option in Rockville.

Tatte has a lot of seating, however, they are so popular it often feels small when waiting in line to order. A few times I have visited I could not find a table and had to take my latte to go. If I visit outside their busier hours or I get lucky I have snagged a table and had the luxury of drinking my latte at a table inside. Despite how crowded it is inside I can always hear my friends and carry on conversation indoors easily. Occasionally it has been hard to hear when your order is ready so I definitely recommend checking in at the pickup area to make sure you get your latte while it is hot. So far my favorite latte is the Black Sesame Latte with nondairy milk. It is not too sweet, a little nutty, and so smooth. I especially love visiting Tatte in the fall for their version of a pumpkin spice latte. The syrup they use is dairy free which is challenging to find. I do wish Tatte had more vegan options, and more clearly labeled on the menu what can be modified to be vegan. Part of the reason I have not tried any of the food is because navigating the menu as a vegan is challenging. I hope they can make some changes so I can have breakfast or lunch with my latte in the future. For now I love visiting Tatte for a treat yo self moment. The lattes are my favorite in Rockville and a wonderful pick me up if I need to brighten my day.

Who doesn't love a housemade syrup? I ordered the honey halva latte, raspberry meringue, pistachio cherry tart, and a plain butter tube (comes with 17 butter cookies). The butter cookies were perfect dipped in coffee, but almost everything else fell short. Looked divine, tasted so-so. The raspberry meringue might be one of the prettiest desserts I've seen but the filling left something to be desired. It had an odd aftertaste, while the pistachio tart barely had any kind of flavor. The coffee was, in a word, disappointing. The crumb cheesecake cup was tasty, but it felt like it was missing something. The woman who rang me up also wasn't friendly, which seemed a little odd considering that I'm a paying customer. Like she had an attitude for no reason. A simple "pick your coffee up over there" would suffice, considering that it was my first time and the barista was located on the other side of the establishment. Would I come back? If a friend wanted to go. Would I make it a point to? Probably not. My visit had good points but overall it just felt like something was missing.

There's seating inside, but the seating area is pretty small and some people were at tables looking like they weren't going anywhere anytime soon. It was a nice morning, so we were able to grab an outside picnic table. The service was decent. One disappointment was when the counter person asked me if I wanted room for cream in my coffee, I said yes and asked if they had nondairy products. She said they had almond and soy. I asked for soy and she returned with my drink. When I went to pay, I saw they charged 79 cents for almond, soy and oatmilk. Ok. Here's the thing. I assume it's on the board and I should have looked, but she also could have mentioned it. Also, charging for these items when they put a little in your coffee leaves me feeling like I'm being abused for not being a dairy person. I get it - it's a pastry shop and the items are buttery and rich from cream. But please - 79 cents for a little soy milk? (I know this isn't uncommon for coffee shops, but it doesn't make it right.). And the coffee ($4.25) was decent - not great. I expected better (richer, more flavorful) coffee from a nice pastry shop like this. Anyway, it's a nice neighborhood place and there's a lot of treats there.
