    P2 Combination Pho
    Gary K.

    First time at a Texan Vietnamese place, so temper reading my review with that in mind. Greeting was warm and friendly the moment I opened the door. Being a Sunday morning, I was the first one in, but the large, airy place gradually filled. I ordered my usual Pho with everything. And as they had sugar cane juice, I ordered up one of that too. The pho was huge. The soup was very hot, which helped to cook the raw slices that is necessary in a good pho to help flavor the broth. But the broth was so sweet that I had to take off a star and leave all the soup behind while I was eating the noodles. There was also a lot of meat. The balance of amount was definitely weighed towards the premium cuts although I prefer the cheaper tendon and tripe. Good for value and those who prefer meat. All the beef was very flavorful with good mouth feel. The raw slices cooked up beautifully tender. The sugarcane juice was a highlight. Delightfully fresh and delicious! If you've never had juice from a stick before, you need to try this!

    So so so good! Felt like I transported back to Vietnam. Will absolutely be going back!! Food was delicious. Space was clean. Good vibes. Kind service.

    I ordered delivery from Saigon 512 tonight. Everything came out beautifully. Hot, fresh, lots of veggies, and herbs. Loved the portion sizes. The spring rolls with tofu were tasty. The peanut sauce was great. The Pinapple fried rice had tons of flavor. My husband enjoyed the orange beef so much! We would absolutely order from here again and again.

    Not sure if it was their off day on the day we went but their noodle soup items were not good. As a Vietnamese born and raised in Vietnam for 18 years, my standard for Vietnamese food is high. We tried this place after reading many positive reviews and we were disappointed. Bun Bo Hue and Bun Rieu don't have their own unique flavor as they're supposed to have. They seem to use the same broth for both and only add shrimp paste and some lemongrass in Bun Bo Hue. Bun Rieu doesn't have the subtle tanginess of the tomatoes and no crab aroma. My mom got Bun Rieu and had to squeeze a bunch of lime wedges in the broth. The only great thing about Bun Bo Hue is that they're very generous with the meat. You will have meat in every spoon and still have it until the last spoon. My husband and sister got Beef Pho - the pho broth is so sweet. Their menu has a lot of options for Chinese and Thai dishes, which is kind of a red flag to me. Sometimes the less, the better. Sticking to just Vietnamese cuisine and doing it well is much better than adding multiple options from different cuisines. Service is ok. They're efficient and do their job to take orders, bring your food out, and that's it. Don't expect them to come around and check if everything is ok. If you need anything, just ask. There's one lady that is very nice and sweet. The restaurant is bright and clean with lots of tables. I'd recommend them changing the music - they played all the very sad and heart broken Vietnamese songs in instrumental the day we were there. You may want to try their non soup items if you visit this place.

    Okay, I came back to try other dishes and was pretty disappointed. Pho: Huge portion with lots of meat and noodles. However, the broth... it was sweet! Usually Pho from the south has a sweeter taste than from the North (I'm from the South), but this one is just too sweet and lacking in fragrant. The only save was the portion size. Bun Rieu: We also Bun Bo Hue and clearly they used the same broth for both dishes, which was very disappointing considering how different they should taste. Sliced pork (which is shouldn't to be in bun rieu), cha, rieu, and 2 pieces of boiled tomato that I feel like they just toss it in there. Bland and pretty sad Quick service, nice people. If you're Viet, you will be disappointed to have their Pho and Bun Rieu

    My hidden gem! This is authentic Viet comfort food for a reasonable price. Never a long line and the food comes out so fast and fresh. The staff is kind and the ingredients taste high quality. A great option for casual Asian food. Will continue coming here regularly!

    Love their food. The only thing I have problem with is why do they have problems with even when I other food Togo in Vietnamese and they still gets it wrong or just want to make more and charge more which I don't want certain things because I don't like specific certain things. Please don't put it in and charge it. Not the first time. Still going but. I keep telling them.

    Spring rolls with tofu. Warm and amazing.

    "Want to meet for dinner?" Absolutely. "Where?" SAIGON 512, of course. Great service, fabulous food, quiet enough to talk. Recently they have added some new specials that sound great. I wish I had thought to take pictures of the new supplemental menu, but I was tired and hungry and was thinking only of how to decide what to eat. Love this place!

    My vietnamese friend ordered me something that was not on the menu. Came out this huge pork plate with fresh side veggies. I don't know what it's called but it was deliciously marinated pork meat. It's a good leftover too!

    Banh Bot Chien
    Phuong P.

    I appreciated they have some of the most authentic Viet dishes on their menu and I think they might be the only restaurant doing it alright in the area. We ordered Bot Chien and Bun Dau Mam Tom. Food was ok, not exceptional but still pretty ok with the price range. Bot Chien was missing the special sauce on the side and the vermicelli in Bun Dau was a bit dried and broken. The sauce and meat + tofu in Bun Dau were pretty good. Service was quick and friendly, they forgot the sauce for the Bot Chien but they gave us the sweet fish sauce which was ok too. The vibe was pretty nice, we went for lunch but I could imagine this place more busy and fun during dinner time.

    Sarah E.

    My husband and I order these 3 menu items every time we come here - bahn bot chien + bahn khot + bahn hoi nem nurong. These you just don't find many other Vietnamese restaurants here serving up - so delicious! So we're willing to make the drive up here to Round Rock to eat here. (Only feedback is bring your own water because tap water here is very bad, or just order Thai tea or Vietnamese coffee to drink)

    John S.

    Quick and friendly service, super clean facility, and the food was absolutely delicious! I'll definitely be coming back again

    Steven D.

    This is a great Vietnamese food option in the Round Rock area. Service is quick and friendly. There are many tables for small and large groups. It's a great place to eat with family and friends. The food is amazing.

    We got a lot of food here and family styled everything. Everything was delicious! The standout dish…read morefor me was the salt and pepper calamari! SOOOO good. Probably the best calamari I've ever had. Great flavor and fresh tasting. Would come back just to get this. Service was just ok - we had a large group and we took up 2 tables that were sitting back to back. The server kept walking back and forth between our 2 tables and kept bumping into my chair/bag which was really annoying me. Other than that, I'd just like to point out that their prices are on the higher side for Viet food. It gave bougie Viet food vibes from the prices, which I thought was unreasonable since the ambiance wasn't anything special or over the top. Probably wouldn't come back unless I was craving their calamari.

It's not somewhere I'd…read morego out of my way for, but it gets the job done if you're craving Vietnamese food and don't have many other choices. The pho is definitely the highlight--it's flavorful, well-seasoned, and satisfying enough to hit that comfort food craving. You can tell they put some effort into the broth, which is a big plus. That said, the portions leave a bit to be desired, especially when it comes to the protein. You don't get as much meat as you'd expect, which can make the meal feel a little less filling than it should be. Overall, it's an okay replacement when your favorite spots aren't an option. Not bad by any means, just not quite on the same level--but still worth considering in a pinch.

The inside was vey inviting and tastefully decorated. We had the Beef Bulgogi Bao, this was really yummy. The bao was soft and delightful. The beef had a sweet bulgogi glaze that worked really well with it. The rest of the toppings added a nice balance without overpowering the meat. My only wish was that it was 4 baos and not two since they are so small. The highlight was the Firecracker Shrimp. Be warned this is not a spicy dish like you might think from the name. The crispy shrimp was crunchy and not soggy at all, it felt pretty clean and not greasy. It came with salad, rice and a spicy soy sauce and it was just so good. With 12 shrimp, it's definitely shareable between 2 people. Lastly we had the Vietnamese iced coffee which was $6. It tasted like Ovaltine and was mostly ice with just a few sips. I wouldn't recommend it unless the cup size is increased or the price is decreased. So overall, it's a bit pricey. The menu was also a little confusing. We checked online prior to coming and they had a lot of stuff but when at the restaurant, there were only a few items listed which caught us off guard. We actually ended up ordering the wrong item (firecracker shrimp when we actually wanted dynamite shrimp, ultimately it worked out cuz it was delicious but the problem still stands). So those are the only cons I can think off. Other than that, The place was fantastic. Did not think Hutto would have a place of this caliber. We will be back to try the rest of the items, it all looked so good. Definitely will be a repeat customer. 4.5 stars rounded up for now.

I'm from San Francisco and travel to New York monthly for work, so I'd consider myself a bit of a foodie, and this place delivered. Austin really needs more Asian street food spots like this.

The food came out quickly and everything we tried was delicious. Definitely worth a 5-star.
