    Egg Foo Young-shrimp
    Ashley M.

    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.

    Viet Coco Curry with egg noodles comes with shredded cabbage and other accoutrements

    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!!

    Grilled Shrimp Spring Rolls (back)

    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!

    Front to back: Grilled Pork with Rice and Me Con Fried Rice
    Christina H.

    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!

    Me Con Fried Rice

    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!

    Shrimp fries rice
    Rey K.

    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.

    Shrimp pho
    Jessica M.

    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!

    General Tso chicken with a native Texan beer. The chicken is nice and crispy. That's just the standard here 10/10.
    Aj F.

    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.

    Kimchi Fries
    Keasha E.

    Small restaurant, nothing fancy but the food was delicious! Everything freshly made. Although it was pretty busy the staff was still attentive.

    Lana K.

    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!

    Fried Crab Rangoon
    Sean C.

    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.

    Springrolls

    I was in the mood for some shrimp, spring rolls and behold! These were the best spring rolls I've ever had in Austin, definitely will be coming back! The service was amazing, and the staff was kind :)

    My sumptious lunch.

    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.

Parking & Service: Arrival was stress-free thanks to the massive parking lot in the strip mall. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us great recommendations. The Spice Factor: Interestingly, they offer two spice tiers: 1-10 and 10-15. We usually prefer a heavy heat, but found that levels 8 and 9 were still relatively mild. If you're a true spice lover, you might want to venture into the double digits! The Food: Portions are very generous and perfect for family-style dining. Everything was flavorful, though my one small note for the kitchen is that some dishes leaned a bit heavy on the salt. Overall, a great spot with big flavors.

That was already a letdown. What really did it for us, though, was finding a plastic to-go cup lid inside one of our drink glasses. It was buried in there, and completely threw us off. At that point, we were just done. It's a bummer because we've liked this place for a long time, but between the smaller portions and that experience, we won't be coming back.

Tom Yum Soup with Shrimp ($10): Very sour so I had to dilute it. They did give a lot of veggies and a good amount of shrimp though. However, I still recommend the tom kha soup over this one. Crispy Pad Thai ($22) + Shrimp ($2): Consistently good with any protein, but I think beef pairs the best. The pad thai was crispier this time too. Hu Tieu SG ($21) + Duck ($10): We went with the shrimp and pork belly soup option with extra serrano pepper and hu tieu kho sauce. This version is better than the Hu Tieu Kho, and the duck was a total game changer so I highly recommend adding it. Just know it runs on the blander side without the sauce so make sure you get that extra on the side. Filet Mignon Onion ($25): We got it extra spicy and requested medium rare. I thought the price was a bit steep for a small portion but the meat was cooked well and tasted really good. Five Sampler ($28): Came with fresh brisket spring rolls, grilled pork patty skewers, sugar cane shrimp, pork belly bao, 1618 eggrolls, and two dipping sauces. Best enjoyed in person since the spring rolls and bao really need to be eaten right away.

The combo plate is the way to go if you want to try the poached and fried chicken. You get a variety of textures and flavors, both juicy and crunchy. Both sauces are great to dip in and the chicken goes great with the rice. If you can handle spice, the boat noodles are a great option too. The broth is complex and spicy, with tender noodles and well-seasoned meat. The spiciness is definitely a build up, but the broth is so good you can't stop drinking it.
