Kitchen Co Ut - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

Good variety of Vietnamese food - not just serving pho and vermicelli noodle bowls. We order the southern noodle soup w the broth on the side and the bun bo hue. The bun Bo hue's flavor wasn't sharp nor had enough lemongrass flavor. The pork knuckle was very hard to chew and not tender at all. We liked the Hu Tieu Nam Vang (southern viet noodle soup). Broth was clean and variety of meats. I liked the noodle texture. It's my first time trying Vietnamese food in Manhattan. We came on a snowy windy day so the hot soup was nice. read more

This Vietnamese spot in Chinatown is truly a gem! I've been meaning to go here for a while, but only got the chance to recently. When I went on a chilly day, the place was packed and we had to wait for a bit before we got a seat (but it wasn't too bad). The interior is casual with lots of Vietnamese decor and music. Service is a bit slow (maybe because they were super busy) but very nice. We got their banh xeo, nem nuong platter, banh cuon, and pho. Everything was so well-priced for NYC, huge portions, and delicious. I absolutely loved every dish and don't think I could choose a favorite. I would recommend trying other Vietnamese dishes other than your standard pho and rice plates (that you can try at other Vietnamese restaurants in NYC) and to go for one of their more unique options like banh canh cua, banh xeo, or hu tieu--all of which are more difficult to find. Amazing spot and I would definitely come back. read more

The pho was fine, but a bit salty. Friends had the beef pho and complained it was under flavored. The worst part was the drinks, like Thai iced tea and coffee, they are pre-made and the concentrated drink just sits in the fridge which isn't very appetizing! read more

Service: 3.5/5 Food: 3.9/5 Price: under $20 Took my grandma out for lunch. It's her first time having pho in nyc + she's lived here for over 10 years! Quite a large venue, pretty slow for lunch. Dinner service gets much busier. Not much interaction with the servers. Tables are a little small for how many things they keep on it + how much space the serve-ware takes up. What I Ordered: - Hu Tieu Nam Vang: lots of liver slices, sweet soup (wish I had more) - Bun Bo Hue: gma said it was salty, blood was too firm, lots of meat, likes the noodle style read more

Finding viet food in nyc is hard! Let alone, good viet food and definitely a spot that does many dishes other than the popular pho and bun bo hue. There's a lot of dishes I miss eating and although I could make it at home, sometimes I don't want to. So I'm glad I found a place that reminds me of home a little bit. I was craving banh cuon but unfortunately they only make that on the weekend. So I got Banh it tran instead and their thit kho lunch special ($10). I finished with Che Ba Mau iykyk I love how modern this restaurant is yet so affordable. read more

Flavors for the most part were good Pho Bo - one of the better phos in the city - 4.5/5. Banh bot loc (tapioca dumplings) 4/5 Cha gio (crispy spring rolls) 4/5 Pork chop over rice 2.5/5. Not as much flavor as I would expect from this typical Vietnamese dish read more

Solid spot for Vietnamese food! I got the Banh Khot, Banh Trang Tron weekend special, and the Hu Tieu Nam Vang. This hit the spot and satisfied my Vietnamese food cravings. I also got a Vietnamese iced coffee which was delicious. They dont do reservations but I had no problem walking in on a Saturday afternoon and getting a table for two. Would for sure come back! read more

Honestly, there aren't that many delicious Vietnamese food places in NYC. Kitchen Co Ut isn't spectacular or amazing when compared to some of the options you can get in other states like California, but it has all the staples and some of the more difficult to get dishes, and they are all solidly executed. There are sometimes misses, but I've for the most part enjoyed the vast majority of the food I've had here. If you check out their Instagram, you can see their weekly specials which contains even more dishes that are oftentimes really hard to get in NYC. Service is standard and the restaurant setting is similar to those in the Chinatown area. It's casual, it's standard but it serves overall good Vietnamese food at a fair price point. read more

I always used to complain about the lack of good, authentic Vietnamese restaurants in NYC - but now Kitchen Co Ut is my go-to spot for Vietnamese food in Chinatown. The restaurant is clean and pretty spacious. The staff speaks English + Vietnamese and the menu is huge so there's something for everyone. We were fans of the banh khot (so crispy on the outside but still soft in the middle), the bo ne (which we wanted to order another one but they sold out), the crispy spring rolls, and all the noodle soups we ate were tasty. I also loved the fresh sugarcane juice that reminded me of my childhood and the strong Vietnamese coffee. We would've ordered desserts too if they were ready at the time, but all they had available was what was in the display cooler. This spot is also approved by my picky Vietnamese mother and aunt visiting from out of town, so there's that! read more

price - $50 including tax and tip food - 3/5 service - 3/5 ambiance - 3/5 overall, this place was alright. the pho didnt stand out to me and it actually tastes more on the peculiar side compared to the other pho places i ate at before. i did like the spring rolls though! the service and ambiance were both alright but nothing really stood out. overall, its definitely more of a casual and cheap eat compared to other restaurants read more

Kitchen Co Ut - Pho Bo Co Ut, spring rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

Quality: 10/10 my noodle soup was packed with stuff and boiling hot it almost burned my tongue Variety: 9/10 has a lot of the true Vietnamese dishes you would find in Vietnam. I have always wanted to try their desserts, but I am always too full after the meal (large portions) Atmosphere/Cleanliness: 9/10 decor is giving Vietnamese village, pretty clean, but only one bathroom but pretty big bathroom for Chinatown Service: 9/10 two waitresses/hosts/cashiers, they basically do everything, but cook your food so they are busy, nonetheless I never had trouble waving them down Price: $45 for an appetizer, a main, and a drink which includes tax and tip (I paid in cash, but theres a 3% credit card fee) I'm going to be honest and say my first time here was not too memorable, but then I went to Vietnam and came back and tried this place again and booooooooy does this place slap. The flavor is bangin and really takes me back to Vietnam (except this would've cost me 1/3 the price haha). Would definitely trek from all the boroughs to try this place. read more

Came here on Juneteenth with the kids after going to the cafe. Ordered a bunch of dishes to try out and was quite pleased with it. The restaurant is nice and clean, and because we came at an odd time, there were plenty of seats. The Bon Xue (Vietnamese omelette) was great however it would have been nicer with more shrimp and pork rather than beansprouts and onions. The pho was a hit with the kiddos so will definitely order that again. Plenty of dessert options too however we were too full to try them. Next time! read more

A solid Vietnamese spot with street-market charm, generous portions, and food that's decent but unremarkable. Ambience (3/5) - String lights and hand-drawn wall art create a cozy vibe reminiscent of a Vietnam street market. Food (3/5) - Pho was okay, but the noodles were overly soft and broke apart easily. The banh xeo was too oily and lacked flavor. Value (5/5) - Huge portions for a surprisingly low price. Service (3/5) - Staff didn't seem very happy to be there. No effort was made to explain the menu or make the experience more welcoming. read more

Standard Viet food here, like all the other Viet restaurants in Chinatown. This spot is rightfully busy throughout the day, but no problem in getting a table still, and is located ~2 blocks from their sister spot - Banh Mi Co Ut! What we got: - Banh Khot: YUMM - small, Viet shrimp pancakes with a hint of coconut milk flavor. Basically the yummy bite size version of a Banh Xeo! - Pho Bo Co Ut: Standard bowl of pho - Com Tam Suon Bi Cha: Love a good Pork Chop Rice dish! It comes with a meat patty, which is best paired with their fish sauce, yum! - Banh Uot Cuon Thit Nuong: First time having Wrapped Grilled Pork Chops Rolls + it was pretty good! The sauce paired with it is basically sweet sauce. - Viet Iced Coffee: Good, sweet, and refreshing! If I'm ever in this part of LES, I'd stop by! Otherwise, there are tons of Viet spots in Chinatown with the same sentiment. read more

This is the sister restaurant of Bahn Mi Co Ut, but has seating and a full menu. We came here after having their delicious bahn mi's. We ordered a bit of everything. We started with the Bi Cuon (pork summer roll) then proceeded with the Bo Kho (beef stew), Com Tam Suon Bi Cha (pork chop over broken rice), and Bo Ne (sizzle steak with sunny side egg and pate). I wasn't a huge fan of the Bi Cuon but the Bo Ne was the star of the show. It was amazing and came with fresh baked baguettes to make delicious sandwiches. The beef stew was also super rich. They did seem a bit understaffed but were otherwise very attentive and nice. We'll definitely be back again. read more

I came here to get some Vietnamese food after seeing how they serve one of my favorite dishes: hu tieu! I was immediately seated on a Friday for lunch, and had a good time. The restaurant is more moody with darker, redder lighting. Service was also good, and it was crowded at the time. I got my meal pretty quick, and it definitely reminded me of home. The noodles were bouncy and the sauce was perfect. The meat and shrimp were tender, and I ate this dish up! If anything, I wished I asked for more veggies to pair it with! I had a great time, and would recommend. read more

This is a no frills Vietnamese place where you can find beloved dishes beyond pho and banh mi. If you're looking for bun rieu, bun bo hue, or even hu tieu, this is the place for you. The menu is expansive and well-priced for the servings. I would recommend trying their desserts and drinks as well, since they are not typically served at other Vietnamese places. read more

Far from my first time here, so I'm surprised I've never written a review before. But alas I am here to claim this as my favorite Viet spot in NYC. I realized the flavor palettes here remind me very much of home and prides itself in distinctive ingredients that are key to Southern Viet tastebuds. Always very friendly workers. Always a back table of elders chit-chatting and lounging--very Viet to say the least. I love the cơm tắm sườn bì chả, but recently my go-to order is hủ tiếu làm vàng. The meats inside this dish are so delectable, and you can really flavor up the noodles how you prefer. That's my favorite benefit of ordering it dry with broth on the side. read more

Kitchen Co Ut - Hu Tieu Nam Vang - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

You can get the classic pho here, but they also have so many other kinds of noodle soups, entrees, and more. Their Iced Vietnamese Coffee is really good and has a good balance of bitter and sweet. I loved the drink and dessert selection which you can see when you walk in! The Banh Uot Cuon Thit Nuong reminds me of a summer roll but inside out. The rice paper was really fragile though and broke easily. It was a bit hard to eat. The Banh Khot is like Banh Xeo but in smaller circle-sizes with lettuce and fish sauce; so yummy! The Pho Bo Co Ut is the traditional pho option and the broth was tasty and hot and they gave lots of meat and noodles. In the Com Tam Suon Bi Cha rice dish, the pork chop was grilled excellent and flavored really well. I will definitely come back and try more dishes. I also really liked the service here and the interior is quite big. They have lots of tables for big groups and small groups. read more

Decent viet spot that helped satisfied my viet cravings! They also have unique appetizers here too Banh bot lot 2.5/5: not a fan of these tapioca dumplings, the texture is thick and barely any meat filling to pair with Banh knot 4.5/5: these were actually quite fire!! It's kinda of like the viet egg roll but in a mini pancake version Cha gio 4.5/5: loved these as well!! Love the way it was fried and enjoyed the filling Bun Bo hue 3.5/5: did the job but not the best broth I've had. But what's in it is pretty authentic from the pig blood and pig feet. Also didn't love the noodles texture here Overall enjoyed this viet spot in the Manhattan area and would come again read more

I've been here several times and I always leave satisfied. It's a go-to Viet spot for me in the Chinatown area! I would come here to meet up with friends or even come here myself if I'm craving Viet or a nice hot bowl of pho. They have plenty of seating and the decor is nice. I never have a problem getting a table. The staff is friendly as well. Aside from my usual pho and vermicelli noodles. I have explored their specialty dishes and their #28 Bo Ne is SO GOOD. It comes to the table sizzling hot. It's a big piece of steak and a big chunk of pate, together with the sunny side egg and onions and the special sauce... it's just chef's kiss! When you assemble everything in the baguette, it's just so delicious! I also tried #21. Hu Tieu Nam Vang. "Southern Vietnam specialty noodle soup, ground pork, sliced pork, shrimp, quail egg, pig heart muscle and liver, topped with scallion and chive." It was recommended to have the broth on the side and that's what we did. I thought we had to dip the noodles into the broth, but the staff said to eat the noodles and just drink the broth on the side. But the noodles were so dry, we ended up dumping the broth into the noodle bowl. Not my favorite dish, but if you order it, I recommend having the broth in with the noodles. Although this dish was a miss for me, I still very much enjoy their other dishes. They also have a sister Bánh Mì store called Bánh Mì Cô Út that I order frequently from! Iced Vietnamese coffee was really good as well. But you can't adjust the sugar level since it's pre-made. read more

I was really excited to try this Vietnamese place, but the whole experience was just meh. For my Pho, I chose the Hu Tieu Nam Vang (#21) with ground pork, sliced pork, shrimp, quail egg, pig heart and liver, topped with scallion and chive. This is a dry noodle dish with soup on the side, where you are supposed to eat your noodles first and enjoy the soup after, as our waitress explained to me and as it is also recommended on the menu. The problem is, the dry noodles were all clumped together, making it difficult to eat them. Also, the pig heart was not what I expected, being very fibrous and almost indistinguishable in taste from the liver. The soup on the side ended up being my favorite part of this dish. Maybe I should have picked a safe, classic dish like the Pho Bo Co Ut (#11). We also got the BBQ prawn skewers. They came drenched in an absolutely delicious sauce, but they were very difficult to eat as one is supposed to such the sauce from the shell, then take the shell off and eat the meat. But we found it impossible to take the prawns off the skewer, so I actually ended up eating them with shell and all. This also made it very difficult to dip them in the sauce on the side. Service was slow. Maybe it was down to me picking the wrong dishes, but I couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed after I left. read more

I liked the food here, and the prices are very affordable. The bun cha gio was nice and light - rice noodles with chopped spring rolls with a sweet and sour sauce on the side. Banh canh was a simple clear soup with noodles and vegetables - the chili oil at the table adds a bit of needed flavor. We also tried the flan, which had a nice texture and a dark caramel on the bottom. The entire meal came to just $42 with tax and tip, which is fantastic for two people. read more

I had really high hopes for this place. After hearing time and again from people familiar with Vietnamese food that the Viet food scene in NY is lacking, the same folks starting signing a different tune when it came to Kitchen Co Ut. I think they're owned by Chinese-Viets, and people say their flavors are on point. Now I know I don't eat beef or pork so can't speak on those dishes, but I did reintroduce chicken back into my diet, and it's really hard to fail preparing a simple chicken dish, but unfortunately my curry chicken noodle soup was super bland. I wasn't very satisfied with the flavors, quality of the meat, or the portions. Service was perfunctory and efficient, which is how I like it, but usually that comes in conjunction with flavors that slap. The flavors did not slap. read more

Very good traditional Vietnamese dishes that are less commonly found in NYC. Loved the Banh Canh Cua! The soup broth is thickened with starches so it's more similar to the ones I tried in Vietnam. Comes with large gelatinous pork knuckle chunks, pork blood, shrimp, beef slices, crab meat, and thick tapioca noodles. Ordered this as takeout and it stayed hot my entire commute. Definitely will come again to try other dishes! read more

This was a great Vietnamese spot! The service was great & one of the servers was so kind and welcoming, and explained how to best enjoy the Hu Tieu Nam Vang noodle dish. We got: Hu Tieu Nam Vang, Pho Bo Co Ut, Vietnamese Iced Coffee & Sugarcane Juice. The Pho Bo was $13.50 and very flavorful & the broth had a great depth without being too oily! It reminded me of the pho I used to get in ATL & back home in Florida. This was my first time trying Hu Tieu Nam Vang and it was good! I'm not personally a huge fan of liver so I think I wasn't as passionate about the gamier meats, but the sauced dry noodle + soup on the side was very unique! The Vietnamese Iced Coffee was sooo good, and the sugarcane juice was great. I think the sugarcane was a bit too pricey at $8. Would definitely go again! read more

Very good pho. clean broth. Not sure if they use a ton of MSG but I didn't feel gross afterwards. Had a platter with rice paper. They give you the bucket of water and everything.

Kitchen Co Ut tastes authentic and full of flavors. The price point is also reasonable and they offer a very wide range of varieties. The staffs were also attentive and very kind. We ordered the following: #1 - Cha Gio aka spring rolls, you can never go wrong with that. #6 - Goi Ga aka crunchy chicken salad was good with the tangy sauce. The only bad thing was it was served on a flat plate and the sauce keeps spilling out, so this became a messy dish over time. #11 - Pho Bo Co Ut aka the classic pho. A good amount of serving between the noodles & beef varieties. #16 - Banh Canh Cua aka crab w/ tapioca noodles was good, the broth was rich in flavor and there was a generous amount of different ingredients. For drinks we got Vietnamese ice coffee because who doesn't love Viet ice coffee?! Definitely would be coming back. read more

Absolute great place to eat at! Every time I've eaten here (2-3x), the food has been delicious! I've tried their spring rolls (Cha Giu) as an appetizer, their beef stew (Bo Kho) with bread, and their southern specialty noodles (Hu Tieu Nam Vang). Their spring rolls are a 4/5. While good and crispy, it lacks a bit of flavor. Their beef stew with bread, I've ordered twice from here. I absolutely love this dish even though it's so simple. The flavor of the stew is rich and is packed with lots of beef and carrots. Paired with the bread, it's basically comfort food. Their southern specialty noodles were interesting. The soup came on the side so you could adjust how much soup you want in your bowl of noodles and toppings (Unlike pho where the soup is already in the bowl with noodles and toppings). In the bowl, there's a lot of flavors already and so by pouring the soup in, you do dilute the flavors of the dish. Traditional Vietnamese people do love the soup on the side to appreciate all the flavors more. But being a noodle soup girl, I do love non-dry noodles so I poured in about half the soup and that was delicious for me. To each their own! I've also come here on several occasions where we were celebrating a birthday and the restaurant was more than happy to accommodate with putting the cake in the fridge and getting it ready for us when it came time for desserts and surprising the birthday person with cake. They even lit the candles for us and gave us plates and forks for the cake! The staff here are super nice and want you to enjoy your meal here. They also answer any questions you might have about any of the dishes. Give this place a try if you're in the area! read more

I expected more.. after the banh mi we had from co ut - we thought their pho location would be just as good. Unfortunately, that is not the case. We all got a different item and everything was lackluster. Maybe it is because we are from socal where they have the best Vietnamese food.. but we were all left wanting more and unimpressed. Just go ahead and turn back around and head a couple blocks to their banh mi location. read more

huge array of authentic and affordable vietnamese food. what you see is what you get here. the restaurant is simple but spacious. nothing fancy, no bells and whistles. you're ushered in by a vietnamese host, who thankfully speaks vietnamese as well. the menu is vast--and is adorned with photos of every dish it offers in the back for people who are visual learners. we ordered: bun bo hue: this was decent. what i appreciate was the giant chunks of pork trotters that brought me back to the nostalgia of my adolescence, gnawing on the meat and cartilage while my mom watched me wolf down her soup. however, the broth itself was rather lackluster. i wanted there to be more of a clear spicy and tanginess. this soup was rather one dimensional. the blood cubes were inoffensive enough that for once i was able to not only try, but eat them all. banh xeo: the portion is huge. you can order two but that would be complete overkill if you weren't sharing it in a family setting. my girlfriend enjoyed it: super crunchy, and filled to the brim. hu tieu: boyfriend scarfed this down rather quickly and had nothing but good to say about it. they ran out of pandan soymilk and the salty soda, to my disappointment. the staff here are pretty nice, speak vietnamese, and make you feel like one of them, which i really appreciate. they have that classic homeland dgaf attitude, which made me feel comfortable due to the lack of excessive niceties. this place feels more like vietnamese food for vietnamese people wanting vietnamese food. the depth of the dishes wasn't great--they barely hit the spot in relieving the itch, but the prices are rather hard to beat. i think banh anh em still has my heart, but i will continue looking for a spot that might be a tad more costly but has a more powerful impact on me. read more

This place brings me comfort when I'm missing home. There was Vietnamese music playing, some that I grew up listening to. It was also nice hearing the staff speak Vietnamese. It felt so homey.

Turns out the price to not shit your pants is $14.50. On the D train, I was met with the sudden urge to expel myself and the closest restaurant at the next stop was Kitchen Co Ut. First things first: bathroom is an 8/10. Clean, spacious, not deathly cold, but no frills. I like my bathrooms with decorations. Honestly, the food was ok. I wasn't expecting much but I was curious considering their rapid expansion. I'd say they get points for having less conventional items on the menu for more adventurous crowds. I should've ordered the Bo Ne (Vietnamese Breakfast Meat Platter) or Cari Ga Curry Chicken). But their bread and butter is the chokehold they have on NYC on Vietnamese Deli meats. Some highlights are the Banh Bot Loc and that pandan honeycomb thing. If you like jelly desserts, try their Che Ba Mau; it's a milky sweet drink with different kinds of jelly. I had the banh bot loc (Tapioca Shrimp fumplings) and it's.... aight. Too much tapioca to filling but they're also the only place in NY that reliably has that so... they're my only fix for now. read more
