Loved this spot! I got an iced coffee + crispy duck lunch special, which also included a veggie broth and summer roll. The food was well seasoned and not oily, and I also liked that there was a good amount of vegetables. The duck was super crispy!! Yum! And the coffee was great; it tasted just like ones I had in Vietnam. The prices were very reasonable and the staff was very friendly. read more

Place is amazing, been to Vietnam and live in the US. Pho stands up their them! Only thing that made me upset is the spring rolls. There is a base price then toppings for the meat- pretty fair. Then I ordered the duck and got 5 little pieces for 6.5 Euros... read more

If there was zero star, I would've selected it. We read such excellent reviews so we decided to try out this restaurant. This is the worst Vietnamese food I have ever eaten. It is not authentic, maybe they change the ingredients for the locals?! We ordered the summer rolls, papaya salad, spicy beef noodle soup, and the beef eggrolls vermicelli noodles. They looked great but everything tasted super salty. We left most of the dishes as is. Furthermore you are better off ordering water instead of the Vietnamese coffee. It's diluted and doesn't have any coffee flavor taste. Seriously best thing we order was sadly the wine. If you're not a Vienna local, stay away! read more

I take my comment back for the bad service. The last two times I went the service has been great. And the waiter who gave us bad service was not there. Thumbs up Nguyen's! Since I have added Nguyen's to my "Best Vietnamese in Vienna" list, I thought it deserved an update. I have eaten here a few times after having given that first review and the food is still as amazing and tasty as the first time! I like how innovative the menu is, plus they have added some new dishes to try out. The Pho House serves Fritz Cola which sends alarm bells ringing in my head that it is a super hipster hangout. There have been a few hipsters when I have been here, but it is not overrun with them. So you're safe. It seems to be busy everytime I go, so make sure you make a reservation! read more

I like the soup here and have had it a few times! During my last visit, I tried the 'make your own' rice paper rolls. These were very fun and delicious. However the pork was not very good. Sweet potato shrimp appetizer is amazing! I don't think I could ever go back without ordering this dish every time. I've recently discovered the amazing lemongrass chicken! I like it more than the pho. :-) read more

I've been to this cozy little Pho house twice now and I'm sure I'll be back again! I give this place a solid 4-stars: 4 for food, 4 for value, and 4 for service and ambiance. Even though we had a big group (call ahead for reservations for a group of 4 or more), the waiter was very attentive. Most of us got starters and both the fried spring rolls and the light rice-paper-wrapped summer rolls were lovely. The green papaya salad also got a good review from a friend, but be warned it has a little spice to it. The main courses started coming out, but as 6 of us started in on the food while it was still hot, the other 2 hungry souls had to wait several minutes until their dinners arrived. Eventually, everyone had their food and the table grew quieter in that characteristic way when everyone's loving their food and chowing down. Both times I got the Bun Bo Cha Gio and its an excellent mix of meat and noodles in a light broth with crispy spring rolls on top, yum! read more

After exploring Vienna on a foggy, cold Saturday we wandered in here because it was 1) open and 2) seemed like a local's favorite sort of spot. Thanks Yelp! Is there a better way to warm up on a darkish winter day than a big bowl of pho? I don't think so. It's like eating a big hug. I had the chicken pho, and made it extra spicy. I also enjoyed a beer (as you do). Total cost of about 12,00 euro. Sweet! It was the perfect way to punctuate a long day of walking in cold damp weather. Extra points for free wifi and English menus. read more

This place is pretty cool. The decor is modern and I like their menu and selection. Last time I tried the lemongrass chicken which was light and awesome but this time I tried the pho. The pho was nice, ok amount of chicken and food for the price. When you compare to le pho in 1060 the taste and experience can't compare, sadly. I will be back again for the lemongrass chicken or something new but I'll stick to le pho for their pho! read more

Excellent cuisine, executed with clearly fresh and well selected ingredients. A true joy handled by attentive and friendly people. Two thumbs up! read more

The food was actually very good but the problem.is their service. The lady actually "lectured" give our orders to the same person every time. And to be sure that we remember, she kept saying it till we left! Not to mention she didn't even ask if we're finished and took away our plates with half finished food. read more

If you are looking for legit pho by asian or cali standards, give up because that doesnt exist in vienna. However ngyugens pho house gets it pretty close. They have a large variety of summer rolls (non fried) but i am a major fan of spring rolls which they did quite well. My friend introduced me to their seafood pancake which was my favorite dish of the night. It is basically a mix of shrimps and veggies wrapped in a crispy egg crepe. It is a rather large portion so order it to share. Now on to the pho. The broth was flavourful and the noodles had enough bite to them. And unlike other pho places in vienna, the veggies were fresh and clean. The reason i deducted one star is because the broth was way too salty. Its the soothing soup that makes pho the ultimate hangover cure. At a little under €10 a bowl, it is a reasonably prices pho place and i would rank it second in vienna (first place goes to viethao). read more

Simply put, Nguyen's Pho House is my favorite pho in Vienna. Coming from the hub of pho restaurants in the U.S. (San Jose), I grew-up on pho, make pho, and know a good pho bowl when I see it. For beginners, start with the pho tai (beef pho with thin steak slices) or bun bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup). Neither of them will disappoint you. Spicy food phobics, fear not. Pho by its nature is not spicy at all. In case you like spicy food or want to impress that date of yours, there is a selection of homemade chilis. Lastly, the owners of Nguyen's are amongst the kindest I've met in Vienna. I have come into to chat with Nghi about life in Vienna while reminiscing on the San Jose Vietnamese food scene. Your Vietnamese food in Vienna journey is incomplete with a visit to Nguyen's. read more

This is another pho restaurant in which I had to try, seeing that it had mostly excellent reviews. I had to see for myself. Anyway, I first ordered the pork and shrimp spring rolls. They were not bad, but they weren't all that great, either, and I thought they were a little bit small for the price. Now, when the pho finally came, that is a different story. The beef broth was very rich and tasty; maybe a little bit too oily for someone else's tastes, but I liked it that way. It shows that the broth was actually homemade and not from an instant soup mix. I haven't tried the do-it-yourself wraps yet, but am planning to next time I visit! Overall, the restaurant was really nice, the food was good, and the service was excellent. read more

I've been coming here since they opened, when it was run by just the husband and wife. They had kinks and overcame them to serve quicker, produce better quality and taste, and expanded their menu to fun things like making your own rolls! Home made goodness. Take out, stay in, it's all the same. True to the culture. read more

Seating is a bit spartan, but the food makes up for it. Oh man is it delicious. I've never been to Vietnam, but I get giddy when I think I that I could be in a country where I can slurp on this kind of Pho and Bun while eating grilled pork satay and spring rolls on the side every day. It's great that this kind of food exists in Vienna. I might really consider coming here every day if it wasn't on the other side of the city from where I live. read more

This is a very average, unexceptional Vietnamese Restaurant. That's a shame because it is nicely located on the border of Neubau and the Josefstadt, it's very attractive inside, and the staff are friendly. But they can't make up for the food which I can only guess has been compromised for perceived western tastes. The salad I was served was by far the worst salad I have ever been served in a Vietnamese Restaurant. It was very soggy (a la Austrian style) with minimum pieces of chicken embedded in it. A microscope could have aided in uncovering the chicken. Chicken salad as well as a variety of salads overall are one of the strongest points of Vietnamese cuisine....I don't know what was up with the chicken salad placed before me to eat. The main course consisting of rice noodles, beef, and Cha giò was moderately tasty but unfortunately not memorable. The waiter at least provided a halfway-decent hot sauce one could add to augment the flavor .... but no other sauces were provided. I should have known when I entered and I didn't see a single Vietnamese person eating here. I'm used to dining in Vietnamese restaurants heavily patronized by the Vietnamese community. While I see on some blogs, tourists and non-Austrians are constantly searching for good hamburgers in Vienna (that's a "whatever" to me); I am on the hunt for high quality, reasonably priced Asian restaurants. Let's go Vienna! read more

There's a belief in the Cantonese community that the best dimsum isn't in HK anymore, it's in Vancouver due to the quality of the water and ingredients in Canada. Maybe the best pho isn't in Vietnam anymore and instead secretly residing in Austria. I live in USA, I attend a temple where many Vietnamese people cook and attend, I've been to the famous/infamous pho places in Saigon and Hanoi. This joint ranks as my favorite pho place. maybe it's the quality of the water. Or the quality of the ingredients- combined with solid technique. Whatever it is, the broth is amazing. The noodles are the right consistency. Good luck getting a seat but it's worth it. read more

This is by far my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Vienna. The pho with beef is perfect, fresh and a lot of herbs. I can also recommend the water spinach with beef. Its always packed here so get it to go or reserve a table in the evening. Service is straight and nice. read more

OMG! The best Vietnamese food I have ever had! I got the curry chicken lunch special which came with a spring roll and soup to start. All of it was so tasty with just the right amount of flavor and heat. Everything was hot and fresh. I also had the Vietnamese iced coffee which was excellent! The service was spot on. They accommodated me when I requested to heat the fish sauce which is an unusual request but they were happy to do it. Clean and inviting atmosphere. Definitely have to try it when in Vienna. read more

Thrilled to have finally tried this place! The food is incredibly fresh and clean and the service is ueber friendly. I enjoyed a rice noodle dish with shrimp, beef and veggies. I am not one for spicy food and this one was perfect for me, but a bit on the bland side, so I just added some of the sauce that was provided on the table. The place is small and simple (could use some cushions for the hard benches) but always busy. The price is right and don't forget to make a reservation!! read more

All in all I was quite satisfied. The pho was good, service super friendly and I really like the open kitchen. A big bowl of pho bo (basically a soup with beef and rice noodles) costs 7,50 which is a fair deal I guess. The interior is really nice actually. It's not Asian themed, its modern and sleek. read more

Clean, prompt, well (simple) design - Beef soup hot, fresh and delicious!

Loved this place for lunch. So many gluten free options!! The sprint rolls were delicious with the chicken. The pho w rice noodles and beef was fresh and seasoned well. read more

It was a big surprise that we found one of the best Vietnamese food ever on our several trips to Europe. Food: Excellence. Cleanliness: Open kitchen, Nothing hidden behind the walls. Servicing: Amazing friendly. Pricing: Reasonable (Mid range) Will be back again. read more

I was never really a fan of Vietnamese cuisine, but every time I go here, I like it a little better. You should definitely check out the chicken saté (truely delicious) and, of course, the pho. The spring rolls and the fried noodles are average, but still good. It's probably just me expecting something much saltier when it comes to Asian food. The restaurant itself is very nice, kind of stylish, and always rather crowded. read more

Don't go there! It was about the worst Vietnamese I've ever tasted. Can't believe it's high ratings. The taste of the rice nudges and of the duck was both really blend, and the salmon was too salty to eat more than a few bites. Couldn't have it. And it wasn't cheap either! Just really unpleasant an experience, for short. read more

Solid pho! Really good prices, too. But depending on when you come, it can either be practically empty or full to the last seat... WHO KNOWS why read more

So after I got addicted by vietnamese food, while staying in nyc for a couple of months I was desperatly looking for some nice vietnamese restaurant not far from home. Yesterday I checked out "Nguyen's Pho House" as I was starving for vietnamese spring rolls aka Summer rolls - and I was not disappointed. I orderd those with chicken and they were delicious, even better then those I've already tried somewhere else, very very fresh and great spices - AND THE DIP - really really recommendable! Then I had the beef with rice noodles - as I am not a huge beef fan in case of asian food, it maybe wasn't the best choice for me, but I was still content with my order, as it tasted very fresh. My friend had some stewed pork with rice and he seemed very happy with that dish :) Also the waiter was really nice. As we had to wait a bit for our table, although we made a reservation, he gave us our first drinks for free. That was very courteous!! I'll come back for sure! read more

Very popular restaurant. We went there at 8pm but still wait for 15min to be seated. However, bad service and too salty!

In my life i returned few dishes fully and this one was the worst. I am also chef and i do eat all kind of food without criticizing. Pan cake oh my fucking god!!! And pho bo soup came with fuckin frozen beef summer roles where the worst like their service. I feel sorry for their customers who believes this place is good. read more

Staff is super unfriendly! Called them in advance to order takeaway and when we asked them if we could just do spring rolls with shrimp and without the beef, very rudely refused instead of saying sorry that they couldn't do it. Food is alright but if you wanna have nice staff, don't go there. read more

The place was packed and they still squeezed us in, great food but be sure to reserve a table. Great, very accommodating staff. Try it if you like Vietnamese food. read more

This little "hole-in-the-wall" has become my wife and I's go-to place. The food is exceptional. Sometimes, the service is a little difficult, but you have to remember you're in Vienna. We've tried a few other Viet places in Vienna and we were really surprised how this place set itself apart from the rest. The beef pho (pronounced "fuh", not "foe"!) is dreamy. The broth is really exquisite. Just make sure you scoop broth with the spoon while eating goodies at the same time with chopsticks in your other hand. Combine to really enjoy it. We make it a point to try a new item each time we go there, whether it's a starter or entree. We've never been disappointed. On the "made like at home" page, go for the curry duck. It's crispy-curry goodness, and remember the spoon is there to scoop the curry like the pho. We used to be able to walk into this place without a problem and get a table. Not so anymore. Make sure you make a reservation, the place is not all that big. If you can't get a table and really want to eat at Nguyen's, their take-away is very convenient and well packed. Other than the soup dishes, you can take it anywhere to eat (think picnic). read more

Excellent value for Vietnamese food ... although a bit off center of Vienna. All lovely and fresh, especially good Pho.

Yummy fresh ingredients. Highly recommend the duck Pho and the Summer Rolls! The only recommendation - the small room should have a better atmosphere. read more

I was in Vienna for 3 nights and I happened to find this restaurant on Yelp. This restaurant has the best chicken pho I have ever eaten. Great prices (specially for an expensive city like Vienna) and the service was incredibly fast. Only wish I had found the restaurant sooner so I could have eaten there again. read more
