Stopped in to sawmill during my work visit and was not disappointed! The service at Kulantro was fast and friendly, and the food was delicious! I tried the pho and the pork spring rolls. The pho was flavorful and perfect, and the spring rolls were delicious as well. I was surprised that the pork had a sort of sweet flavor, but it was good-just different than what I expected. Sawmill Market is busy and can be really loud, but if it's too loud for you there is also seating outside. Definitely stop in! read more

Bottom line is good food, and unique. My hubby and I wanted to try something different. We decided to come to this park square market. We found Kulantro. I had the beef stew which was good and flavorful. But different than traditional stews. I'm not sure what the spices, they were good. We shared in order of eggrolls, but my husband ate more than I did. They were actually really good a lot of flavor. My husband got the Kulantro noodle bowl. He didn't like the greens but noodles, chicken and shrimp were good. We also had lemonades from the stand near by. Kulantro didn't have Coke Zero or Thai tea. Their drink selection was very limited and expensive. And we had a little trouble ordering. The seating is open since it's a shared open area. It was a nice change. Not sure if we will be back. read more

After walking around the whole food court, my guy and I both decided to stop at Kulantro for food. While the employees' attitudes weren't friendly, the food was great! We tried the Grilled Pork Bao Sliders and both got the Kulantro Noodle Bowl, mine with Grilled Chicken and his with Grilled Pork. All the food was done unbelievably fast at 5 minutes max. The bao buns themselves weren't the freshest and had some hard pieces we removed, but the flavor of the pork was really nice. I was shocked by the amount of food they gave us! They really load the ingredients and I was really happy with how the proteins turned out. The sweet chili sauce added a nice flavor to it as well. I didn't finish my bowl and had it as cold leftovers later on and it was still tasty! I would definitely come back here if I was ever in the area. 5 stars for the food itself and -1 star for the employees' attitudes. If you don't want to be there and work, then quit and do something else. read more

Hubby and I came in for a bowl of pho and left not only satisfied by the luxuriously brothy soup , but also got to see a side of Sawmill after hours. It was homecoming night the evening we went and other than a few closed up locations, there were lots of people and plenty of seating. After getting our soup from the nice man at the counter, we sat down near the patio entrance people watching and planning our next visit to Sawmill. I was also pleased that the restrooms were clean given the number of people inside the building. 5/5 will return! read more

Kulantro - Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

This restaurant is located inside SawMill Market and serves Vietnamese food with fresh ingredients and generous portions. The overall taste was decent, though not as impressive compared to other Vietnamese places I've tried. There was a bit of a wait to order, but the staff members were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience better. The peanut sauce is definitely a highlight and worth trying--it really stands out on the menu. They also offer kids' options, which come in great portion sizes and make it family-friendly. While the food didn't completely amaze me, it's a solid option if you're already visiting SawMill Market and want something fresh with good value. Plenty of seating upstairs and downstairs and the place is clean for the most part. read more

Credit where credit's due! Gave Kulantro another try tonight and they'd really stepped up their game. As others have said, this is now the best place to eat at Sawmill. read more

Kulantro is one of my favorites in Sawmill. The veggie noodle bowl is fresh and really tasty, with good fried tofu. I've also enjoyed the spring rolls. The peanut sauce and teriyaki style sauce are good. They give a big portion too. The one downside is they seem to run out of things fairly often. read more

Excellent quality food!!! Super fresh veggies, expertly made condiments, generous portions, friendly service. It appears to be one of the most popular vendors at Sawmill. Loved their pho, my body was craving a simple pho and they delivered. I loved how much bean sprouts, Thai basil, and jalapeños they gave with the pho. The pork noodle bowl was awesome too. I loved the flavor and quality of the grilled pork because it was so authentic to the meat we got in Vietnam. They were very quick with service and everything that needed to be hot was piping hot. read more

Delicious pho and pork skewer! Food came out fast, and service was quick and friendly. Great option in Sawmill Market.

Roadtrip through 8 states and we landed at the #SawMillMarket. Many eateries to choose from and I saw a special for their #NoodleBowl. The shrimp skewers and cut up egg roll in the bowl intrigued me. The bowl was very delicious and the lettuce, cucumbers, and other veggies were very fresh. I hope I find a similar dish in SoCal. Service was as good as it gets as there was a line but the server was friendly and moved as quickly as he could. read more

Ordered one of the Vermicelli bowls with Vietnamese grilled pork, shrimp, and egg rolls. It was flavorful and tasty for a quick bite casual street food concept.

Kulantro is the best dining spot at Sawmill Market, hands down! With the longest lines in Sawmill Market, most exciting buzz and great presentation, Kulantro is a big winner. Sawmill Market is a unique dining destination in Albuquerque with several choices from salads, Asian fusion, tacos, pasta, pizza, draft beers and desserts for all. It is packed with families, ball teams, date nighters and out of town business people looking for great food. We ordered from the small stall that hosted Kulantro, an Asian fusion hot-spot. The presentation of their food is over-the-top and a great variety with only six selections. We started off with the grilled shrimp spring rolls. Two huge fresh hand made rolls stuffed with noodles, herbs and grilled shrimp, amazing and great peanut sauce. The grilled pork bao sliders were delicious on the pillowy bao rolls. The noodle bowl with chicken skewers and grilled shrimp finished off our evening. The flavors, quality meals, sauces and proteins you select here are spot-on. They excel with great pride in food presentation. These combinations coupled with quality ingredients and home made fesh meals unfortunately now reminds me that Sawmill Market is only Kulantro. I feel that this is the best Asian fusion in all of Albuquerque. All of comes from an 8' by 8' food stall. The owner and staff should be proud of their hard work and delicious product. read more

This is one of many restaurants located inside the Sawmill Market in Albuquerque, NM. We have been to this market before and love the ambiance and vibe in here. I walked around to the different vendors before deciding what to get. I had remembered this place on our last visit. It was mobbed then and I decided to wait for our next visit. I was about to order a bao or two when the summer special caught my eye. Vermicelli noodles, with carrots, cucumbers, lettuce, peanuts and 3 veggie egg rolls. It came with a chili fish sauce. Perfect. The order was made fresh and only took a few minutes. Everything in the bowl was fresh and tasty. The egg rolls were delicious! The sauce was sweet and tangy. Shared parking lot and free WiFi. read more

The staff are always friendly & services for food delivery is very quick. Of course, being at Sawmill Market in Old Town Albuquerque makes for fantastic ambiance. All around win to dine at Kulantro! read more

Well well well. What did we have here? Had the chance to try Kulantro at Sawmill Market and was not disappointed! There are so many things to try at Sawmill but the moment I spotted their winter noodle dish, I knew I had to have it. I am a sucker for a good Vietnamese noodle bowl and this was DELISH. Classic noodles with fresh and pickled veggies, but then on top was a crispy egg roll, grilled pork and giant grilled shrimp. OMG, the pork and shrimp were incredible! Both had that sort of kick you get with a good sear, and paired perfectly with everything else in the bowl. Plus the fish sauce sauce on top - get in my belly! Plus I felt good about eating it - it felt pretty healthy read more

Walk up to a sublimely disinterested cashier who barely looks up from his phone. He doesn't ask if he can help me, just sort of looks at me, so I go ahead and order the spring rolls. "We don't have any," he says. That's it. No "Sorry about that, we're out" or "We do have xyz" instead. With service like that, I'm not even interested in going back to try the food. read more

Food is great, but whomever the cheapskate was that picked out the provided plastic-ware should be required to use it for every meal the rest Of their miserable life. Too small, too flimsy. Completely inappropriate and inadequate for the food being served. Irritated me beyond words. read more

We were excited to try this new restaurant in Sawmill. Glad we tried it..but I don't think I would be back...because I felt the selection was a bit limited and..it was a bit overpriced (esp when I'm also Southeast Asian and felt like the value of the food wasn't there for the prices paid). We ordered a platter, a skewer and a fresh spring roll...and honestly..the player is just 3 skewers (with a choice of drink) and spring roll was really a huge roll filled with rice noodles and a bit of your choice of grilled meat (same meat you get with your skewers). I found the taste to be ok. The restaurant was clean..but I can't stomach $6 ish for a skewer and $8-9 for fresh rolls (without tax or tips)....that's a bit too much for what you get in my mind. Overall, a nice and clean environment to socialize..and the staff was nice and polite. But given my (relatively high) expectations for SEAsian food..I would probably try to find a better selection or value for the prices I paid elsewhere. read more

I hadn't tried this place in Sawmill yet and I was really feeling a vermicelli noodle bowl so it was time! It was absolutely delicious with a good amount of flavor. I got the bowl with tofu and I'm pretty sure I had most of a block of fried tofu in my bowl. The veggies were fresh and the noodles were done just right. I will definitely be back to try other things. I ordered online through the website and my food was ready practically instantly. Super fast, super friendly and delicious. You can't go wrong! read more

For an Americanized Vietnamese fast casual place, this place does a good job. The ingredients are fresh and it would be great for takeout (though there is a nice outdoor patio to sit outside). I had the Fried veggie spring roll noodle bowl with red cabbage herbs and arugula. I do wish they had more sauces to go with the vinegar and spice up the bowl, but the rolls were fine (though not amazing or lightest or crispiest). I'd give this a 3.5 if I could. read more

I was looking forward to trying the boa but it wasn't available when I was there on Sunday. I order the platter instead, hoping to try all different types of protein. I guess I should read the menu more carefully. The platter only comes with salad and meat. Being a carb eater, it's a small bummer. I do love the sauce a lot, it's crunchy and contains peanuts. The grilled pork and shrimps are very well-seasoned. Tofu was fried and sliced, combining crispy and tender texture in one. The platter comes with a real coconut or you can opt for a bottled drink. For $20 something, I do think it's a little over priced. Their summer special seems to be a better deal. I'll probably give that a try next time. read more

This food was really tasty and great quantity for the price but it was a lot of noodles in a small bowl and hard to mix up. The grilled shrimp was super good though and so was the chili sauce.

Honestly, what can I say other than the food is amazing at Kulantro! We ordered online so we could get food from multiple places in Sawmill and they had our food ready extra quickly, even though they had a super long line all night. I ordered chicken bao sliders and my boyfriend and I split the Kulantro platter, and they did not disappoint! The sliders were a little messy because of the sauce they have on them but the sauce is what makes the dish! The chicken was seasoned super well and the flavors were wonderfully cohesive and tasty. The platter has chicken, shrimp, and pork. The pork outshined all of the other food for me. It was so flavorful and tasty! I'll definitely return for the amazing food at Kulantro! read more

I barely sat down when my buzzer began buzzing. I love the biodegradable cardboard bowl they serve the pho in. It's a nice touch. I dug in and slurped this delicious soup away. You have to get the broth just right to make this a five star soup and they delivered!!! read more

Kulantro - Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Pretty fast and good food for a newish food hall I'm Albuquerque. Glad to see a variety of places in this collection of places. The food stall or booth was stylish and the menu was not what I normally see for Vietnamese joints, but they're going for more mass appeal and probably bring folks who are unfamiliar with the cuisine. The pho was a good portion for the price. The broth was OK making a good bowl of pho. A salad was served with the egg rolls which was different. Normally you lettuce and some other vegetables with your egg rolls, but this change was OK to see. Cool spot with good food and friendly counter service. read more

An excellent addition to the Sawmill spread, really now...if you haven't been down here yet, make it happen! read more

Dunno about you, but I didn't expect this food hall to offer legit Vietnamese cuisine, and I was pleasantly surprised at the first and the second meal. Soon, I'll explore the Phở, but I'd say the basics on this one are the following: they play it safe, fresh produce is valued, and the grilled pork is outstanding. By safe, I mean the food is no-risk, safe for the heat-averse, not exactly what a dude from Burque is lookin' for, but a nice introduction for beginners. These guys do a deconstructed bao that easily measures up to the best in the city -- not that there's a ton of competition -- and the pork makes every bite worthy. I'd skip the spring rolls unless, of course, you like them safe. And the vermicelli is as bright on your tongue as it appears in the bowl. Again, get the grilled pork, you won't miss the gastronomic heat index all that much, after all. read more
