    10. Bun Thit Xao (Lemongrass Beef Vermicelli Bowl)
    Chelsea J.

    I was not a big fan of the food here. The shrimp spring rolls were pretty good, and the peanut sauce was delicious. The #8 was mostly noodles and only had 3 shrimp and very little pork. The lemongrass beef bun was made with shaved steak from the grocery store, no flavor and overcooked. The only winner here was the pho with rare steak. Service was ok. I'd go back for the spring rolls and pho but avoid the other items.

    Very decent authentic Vietnamese food. I enjoyed the beef pho and couldn't resist a barbecue pork banh mi sandwich. Too much food! But worth it.

    Best Vietnamese food in Tucson by far. Typical small family run business with prompt service. I would recommend this over Miss Saigon any day of the week. Highlights include banh bao, bun Bo hue, and their pho.

    Took my big sister to az, to visit my sister in tucson. Came here wanted to try this place out. They had varieties of rice noodle bowl, rice plate, etc. Service was awesome very friendly and nice,kind people that work there. Ambience is ok but they should not play Vietnamese song so loud. But their clean better then other pho place I go to. I highly recommended this place to go.

    Rice platter, meh not worth the money
    Kat G.

    I normally give mom and pop shops two tries before leaving a review, but I will not be wasting money here. Staff wasnt attentive and rude, besides the younger gal that was working, she was sub part at best. We ordered the deluxe medium pho, and the deluxe rice platter , no clue what it's called as well as spring rolls and egg rolls. Our spring rolls were tiny compared to other places I'm used to, on top of extremely watery peanut dipping sauce. Our egg rolls came with sweet chili sauce which isn't the norm for most authentic places, and our spring rolls were pathetic looking, mangled and had barely any meat. Definitely didn't look like what others got in these yelp pictures. Also tasted old. My sons deluxe pho he enjoyed at first , broth was okay, had a decent amount of meat but not for $15. The noodles tasted very stale and old , and broken up into small pieces and clumped. We've had enough pho in our lives to know that's not what fresher vendor bought noodles are supposed to look or taste like. Then to top it all off he found hair in his food , but didn't tell me. Because I was already upset that there was hair and egg shells in my one fried egg. I get egg shells happen , but two hairs in two main dishes. Come on. My rice platter , the nước chấm was a bit spicy to my surprise but I did enjoy that. The shrimp paste thing was maybe freezer burned because it had a bad taste to it and they only gave you have a piece, which in this case I guess was a good thing. The pork chop I will say was delicious, although I wish it had more meat and less fat and gristle. We already talked about the egg... And the rice didn't taste starchy so atleast they clean their rice. Cost me $50 or so before tip, and honestly it was the first establishment where I didn't want to tip but still did. I am surprised by all the great reviews , maybe people in Tucson don't know what good Viet food actually tastes like...

    Bun Gao Xao Chay/ Vegetarian Stir Fry Noodles
    Maiko K.

    I was hungry after my appointment at TMC and found this restaurant nearby and so glad I did! I tried Bun Gao Xao Chay/ Vegetarian Stir Fry Noodles for the first time and it was really yummy! Good portion as well. Service was really good even though the restaurant got quite busy. Unfortunately this is pretty far from where I live but I will make this my go-to, everytime I go to TMC!

    Loved this place! My husband loves pho and I prefer less or no broth. This place is perfect for us. He ordered the Pho Doc Biet and said it's the best pho he's ever eaten. I ordered the Vermicelli Noodle Bowl with Lemongrass Beef - it was amazing - so light and full of flavor. The egg rolls were definitely made in house and cooked to perfection. This is a locally owned family run restaurant. Their dedication to good food is apparent from the first bite. Our food came out incredibly fast and the staff was so pleasant. The restaurant is casual and clean. If you want great food and quick - give this place a shot!

    Pho Deluxe and Banh Xeo
    Edlyn W.

    My fiance and I are newly exploring Tucson, and coming from Orange County, the mecca of Vietnamese food, we really wanted to check out the pho here. He got the Deluxe Pho and I got the Banh Xeo (Vietnamese Savory Crepe). The pho broth is slightly different, I can't seem to put a finger on what it is, but it definitely hit the spot. It was warm and comforting, and the veggie accoutrements were fresh and clean. The Banh Xeo came out sooo crispy, but the batter itself was a little bland. But it kind of works with the delicious fish sauce. Friendly staff and spacious shop too! There are so many other things on the menu that I want to check out.

    Vietnamese savory crepes
    Gale M.

    Visited Pho Ngan again this week. How nice to have a yummy Asian place open on Monday! When entering the restaurant, the deliciously intense fragrance of pho assails the nose; not ordering the pho would be insane. The diner is invited to customize the ingredients. This time I had beef broth, brisket, bok choy, with bean sprouts, jalapeños, and cilantro. It was savory and slightly spicy and thoroughly enjoyable. My friend had a vegetarian stir fry with noodles that she enjoyed. We also chose the mini crispy shrimp crepes to share and they were delightful! Happily, we both took home to-go containers with leftovers for the next day.

    How does this place compare 2 other Vietnamese restaurants in Tucson: price, quality & variety?

    I don't know the other restaurants, but this was recommended to me by local Vietnamese. I can attest that the Pho broth was outstanding. I had discussions with the owner, and it made the old way by boiling beef bones overnight and adding fresh…

Soup for the dac biet was a bit on the lighter side, but there were plenty of ingredients and lots of pho noodles. The shrimp spring rolls were HUGE, and it paired perfectly with the provide peanut sauce. Good service and good pricing considering the area. However the restaurant is a bit hidden in the corner of the plaza, but can also be accessed through the next door Asian supermarket (Lee Lee International Supermarket). Worth checking it out when in the area. Come and support your local small businesses!

    My favorite Vietnamese food in Tucson in terms of the food itself…read more My favorites here: #16 Seasoned Julienned taro root with vermicelli noodles, pickled daikon and the typical vietnamese herbs etc and sweet soy sauce. It comes with fried tofu typically but they let you exchange the tofu with a couple of their delicious vietnamese crispy rice paper egg rolls that are stuffed with deliciously seasoned tofu (#14 on the menu) and that's my favorite way to order it. Mixing all of it together is heaven. This is by far my favorite here! I find that I generally really like taro- all parts of the plant! The root as served in this restaurant and in Thai desserts, the leaves in filipino laing and the stalk (elephant ear stalk) in vietnamese Canh Chua soup. #20 Fried rice noodles dish (ask for the crispy option!) . This one became quite expensive recently but when I had it in the past it was delicious. Definitely get the crispy version! #14: Those vietnamese crispy rice paper egg rolls that are stuffed with deliciously seasoned tofu are so good. They let you get them a la carte but the full plate comes with the sauce and herbs. I get them as part of #16 as described above so it has the sauce and herbs in that dish as well. I really love that they have a vegetarian and vegan menu and that they have the vegan sweet soy sauce available in place of fish sauce for that menu. The restaurant is attached to Lee Lee international supermarket which is an absolute must visit in my opinion for international food lovers and people who want to learn about world cuisines. It's a great place to find international ingredients that are not easily found elsewhere. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

You order at the register and can choose to sit anywhere. Our food came out quickly. We ordered the Guilin dried style and the other bowl with broth. The noodle bowl includes rice noodles. meat-based spiced sauce, spicy pickled greens & bamboo, pickled long beans, roasted peanuts, and you can choose between 2 proteins. For my two proteins, I chose crispy pork belly and pork intestine. I wish they gave a little more because it was so good. I personally loved the dry one because the noodles soaked well with the sauce. The sauce was sooo gooodddd. The noodles were perfectly cooked - had a good soft bounce to it. The guilin with broth was also so good. The broth was perfectly cooked chicken broth. The pickled greens were a nice touch to balance the flavors. I wish this place was closer to me because I literally would go every week. This is one of the best noodle bowls I had in such a long time. Next time when I am in Tucson, I am going to try their other menu items because everything looked so good. Very reasonable price and great portions. There were lots of tables inside. Restaurant was clean. Parking was spacious. You have to try this!!

    Wow. New favorite sandwich shop!…read more The Lemongrass Beef sub was incredible. The beef was tender and full of bright flavor, and the mix of fresh herbs, crunchy veggies, and a little jalapeño heat made every bite pop. My husband and I split the sandwich and we both loved it. I also ordered the Honeydew Milk Tea with egg custard and boba. The tea and custard were perfect and refreshing. The boba was still good, but the texture felt like it had been sitting for a bit. We visited about an hour before their 3pm closing time on Monday, and the other days of the week have later closing times, so that could be why. I enjoy Capriottis, Firehouse, and Baggins, but Banhdicted is on a whole different level. The drinks are wonderful too. Being right next to Lee Lees makes it an easy stop, and it is close to the Tesla supercharger which is great for grabbing food to go. Customer service was friendly. Service was fast. They have an app for earning rewards. Seating is cozy inside with a couple of spots outside. It was comfortable for the two of us and not busy on a Monday afternoon. It is officially our new go to spot for sandwiches and drinks!

    I could go 'Bahn and on' about how awesome this place is!…read more I've known of Banhdicted for a long time and finally made it in: what an absolute delight! I got the BBQ Pork Banh Mi and my fiancee got the Lemongrass Beef Bahn Mi. Both sandwiches were fantastic: the bread is outstanding - soft yet a perfect crusty crunch - the meats were perfectly flavored and so tender, then wrap it up with the perfect flavor combinations of the fresh veggies & cilantro. The seat area is small & quaint, more of a takeout restaurant than a place you'd hang out. But if you choose to there are a few tables and it's a calm atmosphere. The staff was kind and got the food out ASAP. Overall I highly recommend and will be returning soon!
