    A4. Grilled Pork Sausage Fresh Spring Rolls Nem Nuong Cuon Nha Trang
    Julie S.

    Such a great find! This Vietnamese restaurant serves delicious food at a really reasonable price point. The service was warm and friendly from start to finish, which made the experience even better. I ordered the nem nuong, bun bo hue, and clam salad -- everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The bun bo hue had a rich, spicy broth, the nem nuong was juicy and full of flavor, and the clam salad was light and refreshing. You can really taste the care that goes into the cooking here. Overall, an awesome spot for authentic Vietnamese food with great value and welcoming service. I'll definitely be back to try more dishes!

    Been here a few times and have mixed feelings. Food is definitely good and comparatively one of the good spots around the area but I think it depends on what you get and also in terms of service what time you stop by. During busy hours, service is surprisingly quite slow. I found my table to be waiting 10-15 minutes for our order to come out which is unusual for a pho restaurant. Also in terms of my rating for food, I have not personally tried their pho but have tried their other dishes like the bun bo hue noodles and the bun dau mam tom which are more traditional Vietnamese dishes that a Vietnamese person would come here and order and I think they are very good except the bun bo hue is not at all spicy like the traditional broth and the bun dau mam tom is a little lacking in toppings. Other than that, I am willing to return to try their pho and try for myself to see if the pho holds up to the standards that customers love.

    Wow, very clean and delicious pho. I'm from the Bay Area California and this broth was cleaner than a lot of places I've tried. Authentic and flavorful. I got p7 pho with rare steak, fatty brisket, and tendon and was very happy with it. We also got pork spring roll which had the crunchy skin and fresh veggies inside and it was well executed with their dipping sauce. Cafe sua was yummy too! Other than the amazing food, service was great and attentive as well. When we were packing leftovers, we put the sauce in our to go box and the server came by with a to go sauce container for us. Very nice and attentive of him! Prices were ok too, $14 for a small bowl of pho. I didn't even finish mine and took it to go. Thanks for the amazing clean pho and delicious viet food Pho4ever!!

    As soon as I walked in, the was very quiet and very low-key I really enjoyed this environment. Every time I come it's very relaxing to be in here. I usually come in the morning and there's not a lot of people so it makes it nice . I always get the p.18 small, when I tell you that portions are very nice and worth every single dollar. Definitely one of the best restaurants I've had . Manager was so nice, I love it here, very clean and large portions.

    I haven't been here since it converted from Viet House (RIP). Stopped by for dinner with friends Sunday evening around 7. We arrived at the same time with another 10-person party. I anticipated longer wait time, but service was fast and polite. Food came out within 10 minutes of ordering. Pho, vermicelli, summer rolls were all good and exactly what you can expect from a good pho restaurant. They have a lot more offerings than the typical pho place. I ordered the B13 banh hoi thit nuong (vermicelli wrap with herbs and pork). It was delicious. Vegetables were fresh. I ended up asking for more lettuce. Will come back again!

    Bun Bo hue
    Margarita K.

    This place has delicious authentic Vietnamese food, including great pho and my favorite - bun bo hue, which is not served at very many Vietnamese restaurants in the area. The restaurant is cozy and clean inside, with beautiful art on the walls, and service is fast. Last time I came with my family, the waiter wasn't very attentive, but the food was fresh and delicious, so our experience was great nonetheless. I also LOVE the gorgeous bowls they serve their soup in

    A3. Summer Rolls Goi Cuon
    Fatima R.

    Pho was good, a little greasy but lots of noodles and fresh meat. The summer rolls were wonderful and stuffed full, which was amazing. Prices were decent, but service was lacking with 2 tables being sat and served with waters before my sister and I received water, even though we were sat beforehand. Waitstaff were not friendly or attentive, and you pay at the counter but are still asked to tip. Would come again, but I'm not sure if I would tip 20% or even 18%.

    This is a really good spot if you are looking for tasty Vietnamese food in Fairfax. The menu offers a wide variety of all your Viet food favorites so there is something for everyone. The restaurant is also very clean and the staff is very fast. They aren't the friendliest but starting to think that's just the norm. On to the food, we decided to get Vermicelli noodles with Eggroll and the spicy beef noodle soup. The vermicelli bowl was full of fresh vegetables and packed with plenty of protein. It came with a tasty fish sauce for dipping. This is a great option for even the pickiest eaters. The spicy beef noodle soup was also delicious and comes with a compliment of veggies. The broth is pretty rich and the soup is has alot of protein. The eggrolls were pretty average tasting and a little overpriced so I'd pass on those in the future. Overall pretty solid option! Will definitely be back.

    Stopped back in today and had another excellent experience! Food was just as good as the last visit and service was friendly and prompt. The inside has plenty of 4-top tables and it's not too large inside with one tv as well as music playing.

    "Large" and "small" phô ?

    From the moment we seated ourselves, things were frosty. Asked for water with "no ice" and attitude was miserable. We ordered the pork egg rolls and bullet shrimp, both had been cooked hours ahead of time and reheated or microwaved when served to us. Gross! Did not bother to eat. Also, can you spot the large soup vs small soup in the picture? Nope, neither can I but big price difference. When I sarcastically asked "which one is large and which one is small?" Waiter pointed to the beef and said incredulously "that one". Phô was average. I usually give restaurants two chances but after driving 20 min, what a mistake. Not coming back.

    I was in Fairfax for an appointment and decided to check this place out for lunch (it's located in a large strip mall which has a ton of fun choices of different cuisine). The front of the restaurant looks as though it's under construction but it isn't and they have a sign that says COME IN WE ARE OPEN. I was immediately greeted, seated and given a menu and water by a very friendly server. I went with my usual which is summer rolls and Tai Gau Pho. The food was delivered to my table promptly and looked amazing. The summer rolls were fresh and delicious and the pho was loaded with lots of meat and noodles, however, it was a little oily and not as flavorful as other pho I've had. You know I still ate it all because even mediocre pho is still good pho lol.

Nothing exceptional but good quality, good food And a fair amount of steak in mine for $16. I wish I could say the same about the service or lack there of provided by the two young female servers. For starters, they have zero communication skills. They drop things at the table and just stand there without a word. I did not receive the Vietnamese coffee that I ordered until I asked for it nor was I asked whether or not I wanted it with whipped cream - there's was no description on the menu so I wasn't aware it came with whipped cream. When we placed our order we asked for extra cilantro and received no cilantro at all. Once the runner delivered our food no one came over to ask how everything had turned out, if we needed anything else etc. The lack of communication, lack of attention to detail and quite frankly complete lack of personality turned a pleasant afternoon meal into a disappointment. It's a shame because I saw several other things on the menu that I'd like to try but I'm not interested in being in that unpleasant atmosphere again

    Wow, we were really impressed by Gao's chicken pho and crepe! Absolutely we will be back…read more When we came a bit before noon there was just one other customer. But by the time we left, most of the tables were taken. Service was excellent with our orders prepared correctly. The conventional wisdom around these parts is that Pho 75 has the best pho, but I think Gao's delicious chicken broth just might have an edge over Pho 75's broth. The shrimp crepe was amazing. With the perfect texture it was delicious. Next time here I'm going to order this baby. We also ordered the crispy party wings. They had a perfect level of saltiness and the wings were only lightly seasoned with five spice. Lastly, we opted for the Vietnamese coffee. Gao's coffee is so tasty. Paired with condensed milk it's excellent. Love it!

    Gao actually deserves 4 stars, but I had to deduct a star because I left hungry!…read more We found Gao after running errands in the Microcenter shopping center and came in around 6pm today on a Wednesday evening for dinner. There were plenty of open tables but no staff in the front when we arrived so we stood around for 2-3 minutes waiting to be seated. The restaurant was clean and nicely decorated with a subtle hint to Vietnamese culture. Like many casual Viet joints around here, there was a TV showcasing Vietnam tourism, although the TV in the back was also showing Japan tourism which was odd. We were brought two cups of water with no ice and had to request ice, which was also odd considering it was in the upper 80s outside. The menu has many Viet cuisine classics like pho, bahn mi, bun, bun bo hue, ba cua, and com tam. Although we're in peak heat of summer, I could never turn down a bowl of pho! I was a little confused as the menu was entirely in English and I usually know my order in Vietnamese and couldn't tell which English option it was as the English descriptors were kinda generic. It's a little saddening that the owners thought that a bilingual menu would be more of an obstacle than an opportunity for their customers to learn and connect with the food and culture. There might be something more there but I'll let my therapist unravel that one lol. I customized to my usual pho tai gan. Herbs, especially the basil, was very fresh and I appreciated the big leaves. The lime was kinda dry. Noodles were al dente and I like mine a little more done but the texture evened out as the hot broth kept cooking it while I was eating. The soup was good and flavorful, well balanced and not too "clean" and not too "dirty". The soup was the highest ranking component but the soup to noodles ratio was off, with too little noodles, hence, leaving me with almost half a bowl of broth and a half empty stomach by the time I finished the meat and noodles. The flank was cooked well-done and I would have preferred the traditional way of serving the meat raw in the boiling soup. My favourite ingredient in any pho is tendon and the tendon here I can only describe as displeasurable. The texture was too soft and goopy and the taste was very bland like it was added to the soup before serving instead of absorbing any of the soup flavour. It's like how honey or brown sugar boba is the norm now so when you go to a place where the tapioca isn't soaked in sugar it is a bland and unsettling taste. Overall I would rank the pho well, beating out local places like Pho Duong and Pho 4 ever, but not able to topple the OG, Pho 75. I'm hoping these quirks from my visit today are addressed to improve the dining experience and add more commitment to the Vietnamese culture.

Having grown up with fine Vietnamese cuisine thanks to Bethesda's Green Papaya, my dining companion and I had felt over a decade of void (of exceptional Viet cuisine, in general) since its closing nearly 14.5 years ago. Recommended to us by one of our students who volunteers as a community organizer for Eden Center and other Vietnamese-owned small businesses, NUE with its incredible first impression has us beyond thrilled to have found a spiritual successor to our dear Green Papaya (albeit a bit more modern in style and even fancier). Since it was our first time visiting the Founder's Row mall, it took us a moment to get our bearings (the biggest parking entrance is on the southern side of the development but there are elevators that lead to the main area further northwest along Broad Street (including NUE, Ellie Bird, and Fish Taco) as well as the QR Code-based parking system. After scanning the QR code for parking, it was not too difficult to utilize it (NUE provides a code for 2 hours validated parking). Upon entering, we were greeted warmly by our server Joshua, who took great care of us throughout our celebration lunch and is very knowledgeable about the food as well as the restaurant group. Also, kudos Kyung at NUE's parent group (Happy Endings Hospitality) for acting super promptly (just over an hour later on a Saturday!) to an query I came across regarding their membership rewards. As for the restaurant's ambiance, it is decorated with a beautiful mural and the artistic direction reflective of Co-Owner Tuyet Nhi Le's heritage (her grandfather who was a famous painter). Upon sitting down and being served our requested hot water+lemons, we could notice the attention to little details (metal chopstick holder, bamboo lids atop our hot water glass, and later, the onyx-handled knife for the Fried Fluke). Speaking of the fish, our favorite celebration entree at Green Papaya was a Fried Flounder, and wouldn't you know it, one of NEV's "Iconic & Shareable" entrees is their Whole Fried Fluke with a bouquet of Fresh Herbs, Rice Noodle Rolls, and Pineapple Nước Chấm! This alone got us to slog through I-495 traffic across the river (congested even on a weekend for lunch!). In addition to the quality of ingredients (fish and herbs), Executive Chef Daniel Lê's thoughtful touches really stand out. For the fish, he debones the fluke's central bone while retaining its structure to make nearly the entire fish edible. As for the execution, the fish was prepared with optimal salinity, a delicate hand to let the innate flavors stand out, and superb texture (especially loved the crunchy dorsal fins, collar, and tail fin that were easy to eat completely). The abundance of fresh mint, Thai Basil, cilantro, and red leaf lettuce added a refreshing contrast together with the dynamic dipping sauce (slightly viscous to cling to the rice noodles and herbs), plump limes, and savory toppings (fried garlic-peanuts & fried scallion+oil). At $98, it represented a good value as the outstanding quality was matched by generous portion, satisfying both of our appetites (we purposefully ate very light yesterday) and left us with just enough room for dessert. To conclude our absolutely delectable meal were the Tropical Chè (~fruit parfait with coconut milk tapioca pudding, pineapple-mango-passion fruit sorbet, Thai Basil Seeds, mango, lychees) and the birthday treat of Fried Sweet Yuca with Salted Caramel Ice Cream and Waffle Feuilletine. The duo offered a lovely contrast of temperature (former being ~ fancy Halo Halo, latter being warm and comforting ~more substantial Mochi Donut-meets-steak cut fries), textures (tender, crunchy, QQ, and crisp) and flavors (floral, fruity, neutral-savory, salty)! To top it off, they included a Birthday Card featuring their signature artwork and a generous gift to welcome us back for our next visit! All in all, NUE is what we had been starving for the nearly past 15 years: a fine Viet restaurant that delivers fantastic food; warm, attentive, and welcoming service; classy ambiance for a special occasions, entertaining VIP guests, or just a fancy meal to treat yourself! With Joy by Seven Reasons having closed earlier this year, we had lost a dear favorite that starred fancy Fried Fish (Dorade) in a tropical culinary backdrop (Pan-Latin). NUE also fills that void. Now, if only NUE open a second location in the Bethesda-Rockville area like Joy!
