Very affordable dine-in restaurant in this economy of 2025 :) The food is not outstanding but it does the job of a quick, fresh and cheap dinner. don't expect any ambiance in this restaurant either.
Eh. It was okay. We eat Vietnamese a lot. Like a LOT. So I may be a tough sell. Edamame was fine. Just had table salt on it. Eggrolls: fine Vermicelli bowl: meat was a little chewy, but the veg was fresh. Chili oil: not spicy or too flavorful. Pho: broth was good! And a nice portion. Service: lovely and felt like home. Overall: it was easy and fed us. Would I travel for it? No. Would I go back when I'm hungry and I'm a block away? Yes.
First off carrots in egg drop soup should be a criminal offense. All I could taste were the carrots, had to trash it. The egg foo young had some weird ass watery sweet gravy that really pissed me off as well. They don't include any condiments or utensils (thank goodness I was home and had some amino acid) definitely won't be back here unless I prepare the gravy myself and just don't feel like making the egg foo young. The stars are for the fast service, portions and price.
I was blown away by this dish!! I'm not sure if it's a traditional item or region specific in vietnam but I've never had it before. It was basically like a chicken stew. If you know what Singaporean laksa is, this dish really reminded me of it. The soup was rich, flavorful, sweet, but specifically savory. It was be great paired with some French baguette as well. I didn't particularly like the soft chicken in it but that's a personal preference. There were no bone or tendon/ligament pieces although it was very obviously cooked with chicken thighs. The service was impeccable. They are polite and prompt. Clean without the scent and ambiance it straight to the point! Would recommend for a casual meal or date night? Or even a work day lunch break. I really enjoyed it and will have a tough time deciding between this dish and the other unique ones not frequently seen down in Vietnamese restaurants in this area!!
Another great experience from Me Con Bistro. These (photo) are the best spring rolls I've ever had. They are grilled shrimp. The presentation was excellent, the service was great, the dining room looked very clean, nice, and inviting (I picked up to go). The spring rolls were so lovely, I had to snap a photo. I also had the Basil Fried Rice with tofu and broccoli. Everything was delicious!
Having explored multiple Vietnamese restaurants in Austin, I've found my go-to places for pho and a few other dishes. However, I've been on a hunt for a spot that serves traditional Cơm Thịt Nướng (Vietnamese Grilled Pork with rice)--and I'm happy to say, I may have found the one in Austin. I'm pretty particular about what I want at restaurants. While I enjoy a good banh mi taco every now and then, I primarily crave something more traditional that reminds me of my childhood. Me Con fits the bill perfectly. The space is clean and modern, and the server actually understood the given Vietnamese names for the dishes I was ordering--a rare and appreciated touch. While the reviews on Yelp don't do the pho justice, the rice dishes are what won me over. Don't skip adding an egg on the Grilled Pork with rice, it's the perfect finishing touch. I also had the Me Con Fried Rice, which comes with Chinese sausage & Char Siu pork. The flavors were spot-on, though I wish the pieces of sausage and pork were larger. Overall, I'm thrilled to have found Me Con and will definitely be coming back. I'm as happy as a clam!
This is a hidden gem nestled into a strip mall. Do not be tempted by the Taco Bell in front of it, far better things lie ahead. The decor and location may be unassuming, but the lack of grandour is made up for in the authentic flavors of the food. The Hong Kong Noodles are absolutely noodles are absolutely delicious. I could honestly have the chicken pho broth by itself and be perfectly happy with my lunch selection. The Me Con fried rice was a healthy portion and was just so good. We will definitely be coming back!
I ordered the food to go. First time trying this place. I do have to say the bao steamed buns were delicious. I would definitely get it again. As for the shrimp kimchi fried rice. It was okay, I wouldn't get it again. I am going to try other items and see how they are. I'll update my review when I do order again. I would recommend this place.
We tried this restaurant first the first time last week. We finally had some fall-like weather and wanted pho! The potstickers were 5 stars! SO good!! Some of the best I've had. So fresh and flavorful. I can't wait to get them again. The pho was 4 stars. Your typical pho but as soon as the warm broth hits the noodles and protein it gets cold fast. The flavors are all there. U the option of getting free "extras". That's a bonus! You just need to reheat once you combine everything. I ordered online and picking up to-go. The restaurants seems small but they were busy at lunch time. The employees seemed friendly during my little time there. I can't wait to try this restaurant again!
This place has the best Vietnamese food in all of the hill country. Even thought the picture I am going to post is a Chinese dish. But the vermicelli is a 10/10 along with the Saigon egg rolls. I never have to wait longer than 10 months for my food. The staff is very attentive and on point with service. My son enjoys the fish tank as we walk in he restaurant that has a great view of William cannon.
Small restaurant, nothing fancy but the food was delicious! Everything freshly made. Although it was pretty busy the staff was still attentive.
Came here to satisfy my Vietnamese food craving. The interior is clean, simple and cozy. There are QR codes all over the restaurant to view the menu. I had done my research ahead of time. My take out order was taken immediately and the items were delivered just as quickly. Friendly, attentive service. I ordered the Saigon egg rolls and The Works bun. Both were delicious and quite filling. I'll definitely visit again when craving egg rolls!
We were actually on the way to a different restaurant because my kiddo was interested in getting a vermicelli bowl when my wife saw the sign for Me Con. We decided it was closer and we'd try it out. The service was great. The waiter was very nice and super helpful. I always ask what the specialty is of the house and he responded with "most people enjoy the...." So we ordered a vermicelli bowl, crab Rangoon and a General's Chicken so we could have a little variety sample on the table. The crab Rangoon had a nice crisp and a delicious flavor. The General's chicken was mine. A solid and tasty option. Nothing really special or spicy about it so I added the chili... but it was... fine. The vermicelli bowl was pretty tasty. The chili/fish oil was delicious. The noodles seemed a little thick, but the consistency and flavor was there. To each their own. Nice and clean atmosphere and really pleasant folks working there. I will likely be back. Good basic Pan Asian faire.

Unfortunately, this spot wasn't for us. I'm usually pretty easygoing when it comes to pho, but the broth here missed the mark. It was very dark and tasted heavily salted, without the traditional pho aroma and depth that I usually look for. I ended up not being able to finish my bowl. My husband ordered the duck noodle soup, and while the broth was a bit better, the duck itself was tough and had a slight funk to it. Between the two dishes, neither of us finished our meals. Overall, the experience was disappointing, and this probably isn't a spot we'd come back to. read more

Love this place. My go-to Vietnamese spot in Austin. The pho is great, and so is everything else. Possibly the best Bo Luc Lac I've had anywhere. The Viet Coco Curry is a sleeper hit. You can't really ask for more. read more

I ordered pho and vermicelli bowls for the executives I work with and they all loved it. This was different from where we normally order pho, and now I think we'll order from Me Con Bistro (via UberEats). The order was hot when received which is always risky when you order via a third party. The spring rolls were great, too. Also something that was a huge plus for me -- each pho that I ordered came with its own separate bag of add-on's (jalapeño slices, lime, hoisin, sriracha and bean sprouts). At other pho places, they just throw all the add-ons in one bag, making it so everyone has to split what is in one bag for several bowls (and it is never enough for everyone). This was much easier for everyone! read more

Ate there today for lunch. as you walk in the door there is a gorgeous beautiful fish tank with pretty fish. As always, the place was spotless. My server, Rebecca, was incredibly prompt, considerate, and intelligent. She didn't write anything down about my order and got it all correctly. She refilled my tea glass when it got down a little bit below half each time. my beef dish was delicious! I look forward to going back while I'm in Austin. read more
When is a "bun" actually a noodle? In Vietnamese cuisine, of course. "Bun" is the word for vermicelli rice noodles, thin strands that support a wide variety of fresh veggies, pickles, crispy fried spring rolls, toasted peanuts, and tangy sauce. Me Con Bistro takes out all the guesswork by offering the a plant-based version by the name of Vegan 512, adding tender seitan into the mix, too. It's an all-in-one bowl of savory goodness that never fails. Between all the textures, flavors, and colors, it's satisfying on every level. Maybe it would be even prettier plated in the restaurant, but even the to-go box isn't bad looking. read more

I was craving pho and decided to pop into this neighborhood spot. I was greeted with friendly service, a huge menu and small selection of sake. We ordered rangoon appetizer, the Coco chicken soup and brisket pho. The Coco was my favorite with lots of umami and a generous serving of chicken and fresh carrots. Great value and I will definitely be back to try more items. read more
I stopped eating here for a while but when I get the craving for takeout, I've been ordering the vermicelli bun bowl. It comes with an egg roll and a salad with cucumbers and carrots. It's a great deal at under $13 and it's super satisfying. I'm glad Me Con is back in my life. read more

I always take myself on lunch dates here since I work down the street. I love the food, cozy atmosphere, and Anton's kindness that he extends to all his guests. He's usually the only FOH worker there and always has a smile on his face - it's seriously infectious! This spot will always have a special place in my heart! BEST pork spring rolls I've ever had! read more

First thing I noticed at this place was that it looked different than most Pho places I've been to. They really put a lot of effort into the aesthetics of this place! the bathroom was so clean, I swear the sink and toilet were almost a glowing white. The tables also look really cool! The Phở was pretty good as well, portion was perfect and well thought out, i did not feel it was too much not too little. The quality of the meat was great and the temperature of the broth was spot on. I felt that the noodles were not over cooked like I noticed in some places. The chả giò was delicious!, the sauce it came with didn't seem to be the usual sauce, and I always like to try new things - I believe it was sweet and spicy if my memory serves me right. A lot of attention to detail at this place - sadly because of the name it does not always show up in "pho" searches on map apps - so definitely put it on your Pho restaurant bucket list to try out when you are in the area! mẹ con means mother and daughter and as you might expect it's run by a mother and a daughter - I haven't met them but the waitress mentioned them - which I think is a great name - there are so many pho this and pho that for names so definitely gets some points for creativity! read more

One of my favorite spots for sesame chicken. The vermicelli dishes are also amazing! Anytime I am around the area my daughter always ask me to bring her home our favorite dish. The fried or steam wontons and cheese puffs are our go to appetizers During the winter, I always grab a bowl of their Pho! I have not had a bad dish here! Highly recommended read more

Food was good, service was good. Qr codes used for most up to date menu. Appetisers were also good. I'd go there again. Thai ice coffee was tasty. Place is tucked into a corner, but easy to find. Medium size crowd lots of to-go orders and vendor delivery orders. So it's popular. Apps, food and drink for 2 around 45$ including gratuity. read more
