    Bun Bo Hue/Spicy Beef Nudo Soup
    Liz W.

    I stopped in for lunch on Wednesday. Greeted and told I could sit anywhere. I ordered a combination pho. The broth is sooo good! Delicious deep flavor and you can really taste the aromatics. I enjoyed it so much I came back the next day and ordered the bun bo hue. The lemongrass, citrus, and spicy fatty flavors shine. I sub pho noodles just because I prefer them to the round vermicelli noodles. Again, this is the best pho and spicy beef stew I've had since moving to Louisiana. The staff is friendly and attentive. The vibe is casual. This will 100% be a regular spot on my rotation.

    Shrimp & Pork Rolls

    After flying back , my partner and I couldn't wait to have some pho. Seeing that I haven't had any here yet in New Orleans, we looked up videos and Nudo was in a lot of people's top 3. We both got the brisket , shrimp and pork spring rolls, Thai tea and jasmine milk tea. The broth is insane, very spice forward but strong in the beef as well. I would like to try it with steak next . The jasmine tea was very floral and the spring rolls were absolutely delicious!

    Place is nestled in Metairie! Its a small place and seems to get very busy. We had a little wait but the turn around is so fast that its no problem. We got seated fast and had good service. For appetizers I ordered the pork and shrimp spring rolls, eggs rolls, and the wings. The spring rolls were my favorite and the best I ever had. For entrees my husband ordered the combo pho and I ordered the pork n egg rolls vermicelli bowl. My husband said it was the best pho he ever had hands down. The broth and great flavor and it was full of meat. The vermicelli bowl pork was extravagant and flavorful. The food was so good I forgot to take pictures before hand. I will be back

    Great spot for authentic Vietnamese food. Tried it for the first time and was happily surprised. Got the vermicelli with lemongrass pork & egg rolls. Lots of fresh herbs and veggies, generous portion. Loved the strong lemon grass flavor. Looking forward to trying their pho next time, smelled delicious walking into the restaurant! Cute interior, plenty of seating. Friendly family owned business.

    Nudo a decent place for a quick bite to eat. This place is easy to get to off of veterans and service is usually pretty fast. Plus you can't go wrong with their rice plates and lemongrass chicken.

    Nudo is a no nonsense spot for solid Vietnamese food. My daughter and I had lunch here when it was recommended by a friend. It's a brightly decorated, cute, little spot in the heart of Metairie. We had pork bacos, a pork bahn mi and crab rangoons. All were ok, but if you aren't into jalapeños definitely request your food without them. There were lots of them in our food and I'm really not a heavy heat lover. One of the staff members was super friendly and helpful, so that was appreciated.

    Nudo has some of the best pho around. They are always quick and the food is delicious.

    So glad I came across this place . Very small spot and very busy . The food was so flavorful and came out very quickly . The broth was very seasoned . I gave it 3 stars because the customer service wasn't the best. The younger guy working the front was very nice but the older waitress lady checked on everyone through out the restaurant except for me during my time there. She even tried to take someone else order that came in after me until the customers stated that I was here first. That in my only concern with this place . But the food overall was a 4/5 .

    Combination Pho//pho dac biet

    Great Pho! Flavorful and aromatic broth. The meats in the combination pho were good. The brisket and round eye steak was a bit tough but I prefer fattier cuts. The meatballs were good and the tendon wasn't too chewy. The sides and accompaniments were plentiful. The restaurant is whimsical and decorated with cute Vietnamese dishes painted in the walls. The vibes were great as they played relaxing R&B music. I took a star off for service. Once they brought the pho to me no one has checked on me to see if I needed anything else. A refill of water or something! But will still definitely return.

    This small place packs so much flavor!!! I'd been wanting to try this spot for a while and finally made it. I'm so glad I did. I was immediately greeted and told to sit where I'd like on the small dining area. I was on my lunch break so I quickly ordered crab Rangoon and a pho ga (chicken) and added meat balls. They brought it all out fast. I was afraid to try the crab rangoon because I've been disappointed so many times other places. But these were really good to my surprise! The pho...I have never had a bowl of soup so hot I'm sweating the entire time eating it. And it was hot the entire time. It was actually hot enough to soften my jalapeños. Jesus himself had to have lit that stove. lol The broth was sooo good!! I didn't have to add anything!! I took it as a sign that this place was a gem because there were several Asians there enjoying a big bowl. I figure if they like it it must be good! I grabbed a Thai tea on the way out the door...perfect. I just needed a bigger cup. lol If you love pho...you gotta come here.

    Nudo Fusion Wings
    Jennifer N.

    FOOD - Nudo Fusion Wings: 6 wings stir-fried with jalapeños and onions. Sooooo good! The wings were huge! 5/5 - Banh Xeo (Vietnamese Crepes): filled with shrimp, pork, onions, beans sprouts, and green onions. Served with vegetables and fish sauce. Crispy and made as ordered ( no bean sprouts). Good but very messy to eat. 4/5 - BBQ Pork Banh Mi: BBQ pork with Vietnamese mayo, sliced cucumber, pickled carrots and daikon, cilantro, and sliced jalapeños. Very good. 4.5/5 SERVICE: Service was decent. Food was ready in a timely manner. Food came out hot! I burned my tongue and the roof of my mouth tasting my kids' pho. 4/5 FINAL THOUGHTS: I would come back. The food was good. I specifically came to try their pork belly bacos but they didn't' have any. All the other options were meat with lemongrass and I don't like lemongrass so I wasn't able to try it. Bummer.

    I don't think I would ever say this but - THIS IS THE BEST VIETNAMESE FOOD I'VE EVER HAD. I would rate it as best in the city!!! The difference between this place and alllll the other places that serve Vietnamese food is FLAVOR. They have the most delicious meats that go in any of your dishes and everything is hot and fresh! I realized that most everyone who works here is friends/family so the service is great because they are all connected AND I found out the main chef who is cooking all the food is an older Vietnamese woman, assuming she may be the grandmother or just an amazing chef. I noticed her back there whipping everything up! The place is on the smaller side with limited seating but once you sit down you are in for a treat!! This is now the only place I want to come for all my spring roll, pho and Ban Mi needs! So glad we stumbled upon this one!

The broth flavor was very good, the tofu were large chunks and the noodles plentiful. Overall what was given was good in terms of size and flavor. The negatives were that 1) there were no veggies - in some of the other Pho that i get from other places they offer carrots or other veggies as well as tofu 2) the price was a bit high. while the quantity was plentiful and the flavor good for everything i received, was it worth the price?

I've tried so many different ones in Texas but very few are even close to the quality and TLC made at Chez Pierre. I can't get enough of the buttery, flaky, golden goodness with each savory bite of pure deliciousness! I pre-order them by the dozen to share with visiting family and friends. Everyone who has tried the pate chaud absolutely LOVESSSS them!!! Take one bite and you'll be hooked for life! And while since you're already here, be sure to grab some deliciously potent Vietnamese iced coffee (cafe sua da) to energize your day. Their Vietnamese sandwiches are legit as well for a quick meal on the go. Have a sweet tooth? Their display is full of the most beautifully crafted and yummy pastries/sweets/etc - pick your guilty pleasure! I like to order their cakes for special occasions. Crowd faves are the fruit chantilly cake or the pandan cake- the cakes are light, airy, and not overly sweet. The Chez Pierre staff are always welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable about all their menu items. I've only had positive experiences and I know you will love them too! This is your reminder to hurry over for the pate chaud- I promise you will thank me later :)

I was shocked to learn of drinks made with kidney beans was on the menu. The kidney beans are said to be sweet. I promised to try it, as it's quite hard to fathom kidney beans would be sweet. That will be my drink of choice next time. But this time, I tried a more fruity drink and It was quite pleasing to me. There was ice cream at the very top and the cashier suggested that I hurry and eat that before it melted I did what she said, and I had two treats in one drink. The ice cream and then the gummy's at the very bottom. It was like eating gummy bears or gummy worms with a dessert drink. Every mouthful was chewy and flavorful. To be noted, there are non-dairy options as well. Don't get scared. So many items to choose from, dessert drinks & banh-mi sandwiches, mango this, kidney beans that... with so many items on the menu that just means I have to return and try more of the concoctions. Shared parking lot. But it doesn't look like most people come and stay alone while. Although there are tables inside where you can sit and maybe do some computer work or read a book the average Joe picks up their drink and goes their way.

It was during lunch time and it wasn't too busy (but it should be!). The restaurant was super clean and tidy as well. Our server was super friendly, polite, and made sure we were taken care of. We ordered some entrees and everyone loved their food! My husband had the phat peaux pho (beef ribs, brisket, rare flank, and beef balls) and he added bone marrow to it for an extra $5. I had the Korean short rib vermicelli bowl while my brother and SIL had chicken spring rolls and the rice pork fecta. My sister had the bulgogi baco and the pho combo (beef balls, brisket, rare eye round). All the pho came with a side of fresh bean sprouts, onions, jalapenos, cilantro, lime, and basil. I tried some of my husband's pho and the best way to judge pho is by the taste of the broth without all the add-ins. The broth was full of umami flavor and with each sip, the flavor became even more prominent. You can absolutely tell they put a lot of love into the broth and that it was simmered for hours to develop such complex flavors. I could have literally drank the broth on its own without hoisin or siracha sauces added to it. The meat was also super tender and I had a bite of the beef ribs and it was so tender that it fell off the bone! The portion sizes were HUGE!!! My husband finished every bit of his pho. My Korean short rib vermicelli bowl was also very huge and they give you ALOT of short ribs for the price. The only criticism I had was that the meat was a tiny bit dry but the flavor was smokey and delicious! The noodles were cooked perfectly and I enjoyed the pickled and fresh veggies that came with it! There were also peanuts as toppings and you get a side of the nuoc mam (fish sauce) to go along with your bowl. I enjoyed how fresh the bowl was and it left me feeling full, but not greasy. My family all loved their appetizers and entrees and there were no complaints. I definitely want to come back to try other dishes and their desserts. I absolutely think the price is worth it for the amount of food you get. I had to get a togo box and it was enough for another meal at home! Definitely check out this place for some good ole Vietnamese cooking!
