Stopped in for lunch and tried the Bahn Mi with roasted pork. It was okay. Bread was 4 stars and filled pretty well but meat wasn't as tasty with their other dishes. The Shrimp Spring Rolls were okay today and didn't seem as fresh. However their Pho was a 4 stars...great broth and generous portion - good ingredients. read more

food is delicious and very flavorful. however... do not go there an hour before closing - they only have pho available during this time, and the portions are half the size during this time, and they still charge full price during this time. they should charge half the price instead. in addition, they do not give you enough seafood when you order dishes that have seafood in them. read more

Great pho! The broth is rich and flavorful, you won't want to stop drinking it. We always ask for extra onion and green onion... perfection. The restaurant itself is very simple, with nature paintings on either wall and traditional ethnic Knick knacks that create a unique experience. You can tell they take pride in keeping the place clean - the bathrooms are also nice! The staff is always so friendly when we come in. They're quick to get our food out and accommodate any requests. Definitely one of the best bowls of pho in Nashville! read more

Come out to West Nashville tu thy Kien Yang 2 weeks ago but they were closed for some obscure reason, so I went to another Viet house in the same plaza, Miss Saigon. I returned yesterday early evening and enjoyed a superlative Phó Dac Biet and Bi Cuon appetizer. The broth was excellent and aromatic and the ratio of ingredients to noodles was spot on. I left the restaurant sated and primed to return. Kudos read more

Great Vietnamese spot when you're in the area, fast and fresh, great pho, also try the spring rolls

Super Tasty Vietnamese Food! I visited for weekday linch and had a great meal. The restaurant has table service, but no fountain drinks. So, sodas are served in cans. The food I tried delivered excellent flavor. I started with the Vietnamese Pancake with Pork & Shrimp. It had a velvety custard flavor that was both sweet and savory. The bean sprouts added cru ch and the proteins delivered the right amount of fat to make each bite delicious. I highly recommend the pancake as a complete meal for 1 person or as an appetizer for up to 4 people. The Steak and Meatball Pho was a great entree. Hot, fresh, flavorful, and a large portion size. Delicious. The food is very good here and the prices are fair. I look forward to returning soon. read more

I have been there twice, and I have to say, their Vietnamese sour soup (canh chua) is phenomenal! We were craving canh chua for a while but only this place hit the spot. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend trying their canh chua!! read more

This food is A1!! The summer rolls are packed with flavor and are served piping hot and fresh. The Bún bò Huế is ! I requested mine to have beef brisket without the pig feet and blood. I would highly recommend this combination. The dish was filling and soothing to the soul. The service is a little a slow but it's because they are taking their time to make a curated dinner. The host and waitstaff are welcoming and patient. I'm here a second time and can't wait to try a new dish! It's a must visit when eating good food in Nashville. read more

One of my favorite spots in Nashville for Vietnamese food. We haven't been here in years due to their customer service, but decided to come back and try it again since I missed their food. I'm glad we came back! Our server did a great job! He was very nice and polite. Kudos! Food is still good! I haven't had anything that I didn't like here. I've liked everything I've ever tried here. I really like how their tables have all of the condiments and sauces on it. At other places, I always have to ask for sauces that I need. The garnish came out on a big plate. That was nice to have. At some other places, sometimes you get only a little plate of basil and bean sprouts that you have to share and make it work between everyone. So I'm glad they gave us a good amount of garnish. Pho broth- still very yummy! I like the pho dac biet cause it comes with a little bit of everything. In all, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend them! read more

Currently one of my faves. This place is tucked away in a corner of a shopping plaza. Service was prompt and courteous and the food was delicious. I would say the pho could just just a pinch more of salt/flavor; however, once I put fish sauce in it, it was delicious. The coffee was way too thick for my liking but if you like strong coffee this might be for you. The rolls were perfectly crispy and delicious. read more

Have been here three times and gotten the same tofu vermicelli bowl each time! Always comes packed with toppings that when mixed together make a refreshing meal. Also tried the veggie summer rolls this time, which were delicious and freshly made. Service was great--here, you go to the counter to pay. Always enough seating, and the parking lot is huge. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Kien Giang - Tofu vermicelli bowl, Ch Gi Chay - Summer Veggie Rolls (2pc) - Vietnamese Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I use to come here SO often but it's been probably a while since i've been here.. anyways. I had gotten the rice plate which had "rice, fried egg, pork chops, steam egg-meat loaf & crispy tofu".. they definitely skimp on the food nowadays.. The plate was a 5/10.. My mom ordered stir fry noodle plate, she was not happy about it, might as well go to the buffet. BUT the egg rolls were solid 8/10!!! Egg rolls were my favorite. It took them a minute to get serviced, it wasn't as busy like it usually is. Service was 5/10 maybe 4.5! The ambiance was alright it's not fancy restaurant, i can't believe they still have those photos still hung up since i was young, i guess they kept those pics for memories lol. read more

I ordered the spring rolls with shrimp and pork, fried wontons, and banh mi bo kho. The spring rolls could've used more shrimp. They were very shrimpy to say the least. Good flavors with the sauce tho. I had no complains about the fried wontons. The banh mi bo kho was solid but the bowl was tiny. I wasn't expecting such a small bowl. I was a still a little hungry after leaving and had to have a snack when I got home. read more

I'm a regular. Probably the best pho I've had in town and definitely the best Bun Bo Hue. I eat Vietnamese all over the country and world as well. This place is definitely on par with Little Saigon/Argyle neighborhood in Chicago, LA, New Orleans, etc. The summer rice paper rolls are nice and full too. Great staff and super nice guys. Prices are just right. read more

The food is definitely authentic here. Picked this place on the map hoping it wouldn't be a watered down, American takeover of Vietnamese cuisine. I'll definitely come back when in Nashville again. read more

l have been dining at Kien Giang for twenty years or more. It was my first Vietnamese cuisine restaurant experience l had in Nashville, and they have had consistently great quality, ever since l first dined there. It is always clean, great fresh quality ingredients, most excellent dishes that they serve, along with excellent beverages, my favorite is Café Sua Da, iced coffee with sweetened condensed milk; and the waitstaff and management are kind, helpful, and professional, and greet you with a smile every time l visit their most excellent restaurant! It is in my opinion, the very best Vietnam cuisine restaurant in Nashville. read more

Excellent pho and soups, fresh perfect spring rolls. I've tried some of their simmered curry, stir fry, and meatball dishes and they were all very tasty and relatively inexpensive. The rice and pork platter is a real winner as well, especially the pork skewered with lemongrass. The real star for me is their Cô Bò Lá Lốt, and it's one of my favorite dishes in town. I don't think that any of the other four Viet places nearby serve it. Very unique and fragrant grilled rolled leaf beef dish with vermicelli, herbs, and pickled veggie. Try it and you'll thank me later. Also, their Vietnamese specialty beverages never disappoint. My favorite is the salted lemonade. Overall, a great homey feeling cafe with delicious food, good prices, and good service. read more

This gem of a restaurant is tucked away in a little corner of the complex that K&S Market is located in. But if you ever consider venturing in, you'll be in for a pleasant surprise. It is nothing fancy and you won't get a chatty server but if you want a flavorful yet super affordable meal you will be glad you stopped by. There are many Pho restaurants in Nashville but no one can come close to their generous $7.95 Pho bowls! You can have an appetizer, entree and a Bubble Tea for $15 and that is kinda impossible to do anywhere in this day and age. I missed out on taking pics of the Pho dish but I got a pic of my extra bowl of just the Pho broth which is perfect for a rainy afternoon They have a standard Vietnamese menu but there are also Chef Specials and a page of Authentic dishes. I can't remember the Vietnamese names but the Stir Fry Beef with Vermicellie with a special house special sauce (No 8) which is $7.95 has become one of my favorite dishes here. 2 pcs of egg rolls with sauce is $2.50, and the plate of 6 pcs of Wontons for $4.50 came perfectly crispy with some dipping sauce too. This time, instead of the Pho, I decided to try the $11.95 Garlic Shrimp with rice and i was not disappointed! All the Bubble Teas are $3.50 with just fc$a small scoop of tapioca pearls and they even have a Herbal drink which is a full cup of all kinds of interesting things like beans, longans, seaweed etc served ice cold. My daughter's loves their Pho. COVID precautions: It was very empty during the time we were there. But we noticed mainky pick up orders so there wasn't much to be worried about since there was ample space. The staff were all masked and they do request you enter masked as well and at least till you finish ordering. PS - The only suggestions I'd offer them is to 1) offer the spicy chilli powder instead of just the Chilli oil and 2) fully cook the boba pearly or offer the Lychee jelly instead and 3) offer more non pork appetizers read more

Kien Giang - Bún Riêu - no pork feet or blood cube - Vietnamese Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I was craving vietnamese food, and the other places I typically go to were closed. Is I went here as it was highly rated on Yelp as well as Google reviews. I ordered the vermicelli with pork and egg rolls. I walked to pick up my order, and the restaurant was quite big and spacious. Also, my order was ready early. Great service! I went home to eat my food, and man, were the portions huge! The bowl was delicious with crunchy, meaty, soft, and all the umami flavors I was looking for. I'll definitely be back again with my husband. This hit the spot! read more

I know some will go into Kien Giang and think "why 5 stars?" The place is small, rather plain and cash only. What is the draw? To be honest, it is the food. Not the best Vietnamese food in the nation (I can name some places in Oklahoma City, Sandusky, and the Austin area that are better), but I think it is the best in Nashville. VN Pho down the hill is also good and takes cards, but I find this more pleasing. My norm going in is getting a bahn mi and Pho or Pho and springs rolls to dip. The attention to the broth is what makes Pho shine and this is very nicely done. A nice beef stock with a hint of fresh garlic and some star anise (the star anise is the trick if you want to do this at home). The bahn mi is also lovely. Proper crunchy French bread with meat and house pickled vegetacles. And the spring rolls are fried to a very nice crunch and go great dipped in pho broth. The dining room, as I mentioned, is very plain. Basic table arranged more like a cheap cafeteria. Service is always good. Cash only, so be prepared. I know that is a sticking point for some. But the prices are very reasonable. Top knotch Vietnamese staples. read more

I used to come here frequently with my family but then stopped for a while as we resulted to another Vietnamese restaurant. Came here recently because that restaurant was closed and sad to say we should have just went somewhere else. Food did not taste fresh. The best dish we got was probably the Banh Xeo but my sister got the Vermicelli noodle and was completely disappointed. First, the noodles were warm and soggy. Normally this is a cold noodle dish with fresh vegetables but with the noodles being warm it just made the whole dish all soggy and gross. Second, the combo dish didn't have fresh vegetables and had over cooked sides which was a disappointment. read more

My sister and I have been eating our way through West Nashville and this is one of the best places there is. You'd really have to be looking for it to find it because you can't see the signage for the shopping center from the main road. But once you turn into the parking lot for the shopping center, the restaurant is in your left. We've eaten at the other restaurants in the area and this one is my favorite. The service is fast, the ingredients are fresh, the place is clean and everyone is really friendly. You've got to try their Bun Bowls and Pho. 10/10! read more

This is a relatively nice little place in a large strip mall with great ease of parking. The restaurant is nice and clean, bright and comfortable. Add to that a thorough cleaning as each table leaves and the whole picture is looking good. The toilets could have been cleaner, but given the numbers of people who stopped to eat, it may have been a momentary aberration. We ordered spring rolls, which were excellent, followed by a Vietnamese pancake which was light, crispy and was served with a fresh salad; and a noodle, vegetable and tofu stirfry. It was all excellent and at just $30, it was fine. It's in the same complex as Miss Saigon which is nice also, but of a sufficiently different style as to require two separate night's out. Kien Giang is a good place to eat, I recommend it. read more

This place is cash only!! Good little spot for a quick, reasonably priced Vietnamese dish. The dining area is basic but clean and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. We got a Thai iced tea and fresh rolls with pork to start. Thai tea was good - it wasn't too sweet which we enjoyed. The fresh rolls were ok - they had a nice sauce that came with them but didn't have a great amount of flavor. I ordered Bun with pork and an egg roll for my entree. Overall, the dish was pretty solid. It came with a good portion of pork and I really enjoyed the large amount of fresh veggies on the dish. This place gets a three star because I thought it was good, but I have been to better Vietnamese places. That being said, I would consider coming back here in the future to have another meal. read more

The Bun Bo Hue was delicious! Also loved the authentic ice vietnamese coffee. Would definitely visit again next time I'm in Nashville.

I understand the restaurant changed owners/management recently/a while back. For years Kien Giang was always our go-to choice for pho/Viet. And ever since the new managers have taken over I feel like the food has always been consistently delicious and the front of house are friendly and efficient. We mostly order for pickup now, still our go-to to go after all these years. IYKNK, AIYD, F*AFO. YMMV. * Foodie read more

Better food with way better customer service since the new owner took over! I've only been here twice and the waiter remember exactly what I ordered last time. Impressive!

Bonus point: they have different special dishes every Sunday. read more

My first time in Nashville, Tennessee, and I don't really eat Vietnamese food. I basically just taste the Vietnamese food if I have to. However, I will give this restaurant more than 5 stars if I can. I ordered 3 different dishes, and none of them were under 90 points (based on my opinion). Believing or not, we finish all 3 dishes in only 20 minutes. It has never happened before. I absolutely come back to Nashville and visit Kien Giang. read more
