    Wow!! Hidden gem in Tulsa! This place is incredible. Large portions and everything was great! Friendly and fast service with affordable prices.

    Spicy Beef Noodle

    Great little Viet spot! The food is flavorful and fresh. Portions are large and are very reasonably priced. We came in at 7pm on a Saturday and were told a few of the items we wanted were sold out already. But, then I heard other groups order the same sold out items after us and they were suddenly available. 4 stars for the food issue.

    SO GOOD. The fried rice was amazing. The portion was generous and I saved the other half for another time. Their pho was great too!

    Best Pho and Vietnamese food in all of Tulsa. I couldn't believe how good it was. The pho broth was so flavorful and perfect. Not too heavy on the star anise which to me makes the best broth and bowl of Pho. You can tell they got the broth down just right. The meats fresh and such a good amount and portion. Can't recommend this place enough! A hidden gem!

    Delicious Pho with tofu
    Michele O.

    My first time here, so excited. I was in the mood for some good Pho. And thankfully my friend knew where to take me. We were seated right away, and although the place was a little busy, the wait staff did a pretty amazing job in getting our food out pretty promptly. I had my pho with tofu, and it was so delicious! The portions were large, and I-ate-it- ALL! I rolled myself out of there, happy!

    Out in Tulsa for work so ran out to find something to eat. What a find!!!! The food and the service was amazing. What surprised me aside from the amazing flavors in their broth was that the bowl was too small. The pho was loaded was yummy goodness. Lots of meat. Lots of noodles. Lots of flavor. Everything about the place was just amazing. This spot will definitely become a place I return to on my many trips to Tulsa. Amazing!!!

    Spring roll

    Hadn't been here in years and it hasn't changed except they used to bring complimentary shrimp chips (got me hooked on those!). They really need to do some cleaning, the doors & windows are filthy. The service is very good. We ordered the spring rolls, they were just okay nothing special. I ordered the spicy beef noodle. It was really good, you could taste the lemongrass however it lacked a depth of flavor. It had a generous amount of meat and was much more hardy with slightly thicker rice noodles. They are generous w/the greens too.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants in Tulsa. Once the weather starts leaning to the colder side I crave Phở and there is something magical about the broth they use here, everything seems to have gotten mover flavorful with each bite . I can't really fault anything on that front, I usually get the special Phở but some of the ingredients in that one may not be to everyone liking but I think its delicious. If you are lucky enough to get the spring rolls they are large and leave just wanting more and makes it feel like you can make a meals of those bad boys. I like the little bit of heat they add to the peanut sauce it just adds so to the spring rolls. I have had a few of the apps and they are no slouch either the wings or the eggplant are both solid options. In the summer months I usually lean towards the Vermicelli bowls or some noodles they are both solid options because the food is so good and the staff is friendly and helpful that's why this is an awesome neighborhood spot.

    Pho with everything and extra meatballs
    Josh H.

    I keep going back. It's good as you can expect from any Vietnamese restaurant. The pho is great. I always ask for extra meat, $1 more is plenty! I hope this place is in business many more years because my wife and I love it. She always gets fried rice

    Otty T.

    In town for work and had the pho which was delicious. The bowl looks small but man was it packed full of meat and noodles. The both was on point . The only complaint I had the Thai tea was expensive cost as much as an appetizer . Service could be better had to ask to refill my water.

    Combination Bun Cha Gio
    Anji N.

    First time to stop by, I think hours may have varied from whatever outlet I saw hours listed as but they answered, took my order and had it prepared in the time stated when I picked it up. Let's all agree when ordering Vermicelli salad aka Bun Cha Gio, the fish sauce is essential to a great dish. I usually err the side of caution when ordering Vietnamese food somewhere new, but Mekong River came through like a champ tonight and fish sauce was on par, I might almost go as far to say above par from my normal take-out place. The fish sauce had a very slight spiciness which I can appreciate, I eat really spicy foods in general. The MK-19 Bun Cha Gio combination here was excellent. I will definitely be returning soon because it seems a challenge for other places to nail this dish but it feels like Mekong River achieved this feat effortlessly! Bun Cha Gio

    It's been ages since we have been to Chengdu. I don't know why because it's probably my favorite…read moreAsian restaurant. I like it because of its authenticity. You can get all the common dishes here but you can also get some unusual dishes that are very authentic. My grandson once ordered jelly fish. You can't get that at very many local restaurants. Another thing I like is that they have a couple of large round tables with lazy Susans. Our extended family sat at one of those tables once. It was fun putting the things we wanted to share on the lazy Susan and being able to spin it around and try what we wanted. It made for fun conversation talking about the different dishes. That was when our grandson ordered jellyfish. The restaurant is fairly small but the large tables make the restaurant good for groups. I think this would be an excellent place for a Yelp event. They have a lunch menu but you have to ask for it. It includes some of the popular Asian dishes for $9:95. They have smaller portions that come with a choice of soup or egg roll. Danny and I asked to see the lunch menu, but decided to order off the main menu. We split Crispy Tofu with garlic sauce and egg rolls. I liked the presentation of the egg rolls. They were cut diagonally and arranged nicely on the plate. The tofu dish was quite tasty. Next time, I plan to get Mei Fun. I have had it here before and loved the variety of flavors. The service wasn't terrible but it wasn't wonderful. We got our food in a timely manner, but we felt rushed to order and she didn't check to see if we needed anything or refill our water glasses. Service here has been excellent in the past. I am glad we came back to Chengdu and were reminded of how much we like it. We will be back soon.

We had a small group and were able to get a table right away. Our table had a lazy susan in the center which is great for groups. The service was efficient and our food came out quickly. Our waitress did check on us periodically and did refill drinks. The portion size of the food was good and a little salty. I enjoyed the green beans but they had a little bit of a lemony flavor that had a weird after taste. I think the Kung Pao could have used a little more heat. The price for the food was decent.

The restaurant still caters Korean/Chinese food hybrid, predominantly Chinese food though. A few positive features worth mentioning. I really like the inside of this restaurant. It always appears very clean. The food is relatively cheap when comparing to the like of Chengdu. Hot tea is served in a hot tea pot, not in a cup. YES! YES!! YES!!! I feel like the Korean food at Chopsticks lack the "Korean" flavor. If the server did not tell me the Jampong soup is Korean, I would have thought it's Chinese. The beansprouts, cucumbers, Napa cabbage, and seafood scream out Korean but the taste says something otherwise. It really does have a generic taste. The Mapo tofu has soft tofu in some sort of shredded meat sauce. It's a little salty but goes well with white rice. The white rice was a little hard on this particular visit. I guess it's going to be another 6-12 months for me to come back to try Chopsticks again. Sigh...
