I've been wanting to try Tan My for so long cause I always hear about how it's the best Pho in Austin and after finally getting to eat there, I can definitively say that that claim is true. This really hit the spot and satisfied my pho craving after the winter storm. I'm so glad they were open because this meal saved my life. I'm a changed person. The vibe is very classic pho spot and took me back to my favorite pho restaurant at home. The workers were also very sweet and attentive and we got our food super quick. Like really quick. I got their large number 1 pho and the large is a very generous portion. The bowl was as big as my head. But the meat cuts were so soft and chewy and the broth tasted amazing. My pet peeve is when pho noodles are too soggy or soft but these were perfect. read more

Wonderful hole in the wall food spot. Went in during lunch rush, they sat me immediately, food came out quickly after I ordered. I recommend going in to eat to really experience how their food brings people from all walks of life to eat. The people even have regulars that they chat with. When paying, they remembered what I got and was easy and quick! read more

Returned after a year and enjoyed every dish this time. The owner is super nice and friendly. Pho is comforting and great broth with good noodle to meat ratio. Bun Bo hue was so flavorful with pork knuckles and pork blood. Close to traditional. Wish they didnt serve it so much chilli oil floating on top. Pan fried noodle was nice and crispy but a bit overly seasoned for our taste buds but still good. read more

Not the best pho in Austin in my opinion. Definitely top 3 which is not bad. The portions are good, I got a small and felt it was a lot. The broken rice came with everything you'd expect it to. If you're in the area, it's a good spot for some viet classics. read more

I've been getting pho to-go from Tan My for years, but I finally decided to pop in for the full dining experience. I mainly get pho here, and it's always consistently good. Everything well cooked, the broth always flavorful. This is family-owned spot, and it has that family feel to it. The place seems to be always packed during lunchtime, so expect it to be busy, but the service is great here as expected and you can tell they have their fair share of regulars. I'm not sure if it's the best pho in Austin, but it's definitely up there and always pretty consistent! I look forward to trying their other popular Vietnamese options as well in the future, and they have a pretty extensive menu to try out different dishes. read more

Had the worst experience; we are regulars, and my wife decided to try something new, it was to salty for her so we talked to the staff and they seemed afraid to tell the owner, but they did the OWNER brought the plate back and said; "look the others ordered that same plate and they are enjoying it", he also said "No other place will ever allow you to return a plate after ordering" i told him yes any other place would be generous enough to fix the problem for us he then said "No" and laughed. I told him that we wouldn't come back when i got up he offered to give us a plate on the house that my wife does enjoy, so we agreed BUT the attitude and horrible experience was unacceptable. read more

Finding an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Austin can be difficult, but Tan My is just that! I've been going here since college, and their food has never changed which I appreciate. Prepare to wait a bit on the weekends, as they are usually full to the brim especially in the morning. Their pho menu is interesting as each ascending number takes away a type of meat, which allows for more personalization than some places. The no 1 is my go to! The broth is soothing, homey, and filling. The meat is truly packed in there, and the price is still reasonable. The green iced thai tea is super solid and pairs well with the pho. I love it here and will always support them. read more

This is comfort food in so many ways. Tam My is a small family run restaurant that takes care of the customers. On a cold or rainy day you simply can't beat the pho. You have all the usual protein options and it is served with the customary basil, bean sprouts and fresh jalapeños. A small will satisfy most appetites but a large size is available for the hearty eaters. It is owned by a lovely, gracious couple who are almost always present. They are ably assisted by their son and daughter. The rest of the staff have been a part of the team for years, so they obviously treat them like part of the family. Once you have been there several times you become part of the family too! They recently started closing on Sundays so everyone can rest. read more

Tân My is in the top 5 best restaurants that Austin has to offer. Their food is always outstanding, never a miss. I first learned about this restaurant from a Lyft driver who was sharing his favorite Vietnamese food in Austin and Round Rock, and he said Tân My was the best and most authentic. He was not wrong! I have never dined in, so I always order to-go via phone. It is the place my partner and I order takeout the most from because the food is always delicious with ample portions that means two meals (dinner plus dinner or lunch the next day). There are multiple comfortable tables inside for those who prefer to dine-in. My favorites are the 55C crispy noodles (I get mine with just shrimp but it comes with chicken and beef for meat-eaters), 47 shrimp vermicelli with lemongrass, and 29 egg noodle soup with shrimp. The crispy noodles are thick and fried together in truly the most delicious sauce ever with fresh vegetables. My family has also loved their chicken fried rice and their rice noodle soup with chicken. Amy and David are wonderful siblings who often answer the phones and check you out, and the full family and all the staff are welcoming and make delicious food. They genuinely make you feel at home in the restaurant, and their food is a nurturing gift. They are currently closed on Sundays, so just plan ahead for your lunch or dinner. Tân My is an absolute Austin treasure. Order or stop by to be delighted today! read more

I loved this place I always order thru Uber Eats and I was finally happy to take my husband as he has never tried their food. However the service of the Hispanic ladies that greeted us was great. But the older Asian woman said hi to every non Hispanic customer and even when we were looking at the menu she reluctantly asked us with a nasty tone if we were ready to order. Not one time did she ask us if everything was alright but sure enough was asking all the other white or Asian ppl. I will never dine in and even as we were paying she had asked the other young girl working the register why we didn't leave a tip. I'll tip when it's deserved. But the food has always been good.

This is a family-owned business. We got the Bun Bo Hue/spicy beef soup ($15) and Bun Thit Nuong/vermicelli with grilled pork ($15). The Bun Bo Hue had a nice variety of meat, but I liked the Bun Thit Nuong even more! The grilled pork was so flavorful. The fish sauce flavoring was light and refreshing. I liked the texture of the dried but partially soaked in the sauce noodles. We went on a Saturday mid-day and got seated immediately! Service was fast, friendly, and accurate. read more

I met a former colleague for lunch here today at her suggestion. I haven't been here for years and luckily we got there just before the lunch rush and didn't have to wait in line to get a seat. I need to remember to come back more often. I had forgotten how good and fresh the food was here! They do a great job getting folks a spot and serving folks quickly. The dishes are a good size so it's always nice to be able to take leftovers home. I always get confused when choosing between pho's so when my friend got her typical vermicelli with curry sauce I got the same. It was really good! The spring rolls were good too. The peanut sauce was different than I'm used to so I probably should have tried it with some other sauces they had on the table. I look forward to going back again soon! read more

The broth was extremely bland and watered down, with no aroma or real pho flavor. Without hoisin sauce it was even worse. I tried adding seasoning to make it taste decent but nothing helped. The noodles were also hard and clumped together in one big chunk. I had to microwave them for about three minutes just to get them to separate. In the end, I gave up and threw away our 2 -$18 bowl of pho. The broth tasted worse than instant pho. Very disappointing. I should have known better than to order pho downtown.

It came with two runny side up eggs, pate, two types of cured pork, beef gravy, and a handful of cilantro. The baguette came on the side, as did the mixed salad of lettuce and tomato. The salad had some dried shrimp, fish sauce, and a slightly sweet dressing. The restaurant itself is located in the Chinatown Center on N Lamar. It's a small corner shop. Lots of mirrors and glass. The staff are friendly enough. Unfortunately, they've closed, and it looks like another restaurant will be opening up in its place. The situation leaves me unsure about where to go to satisfy savory sticky rice cravings.

The brisket pho was also great, comforting and packed with flavor. Crab rangoons were obviously amazing as well. The food came out fast, hot, and fresh, and you can tell they really care about quality. The place is super cute on the outside and inside as well. This is definitely going into my regular rotation whenever I'm craving pho. Can't wait to come back soon!!!

They have a UT student discount if you show your ID, which is a nice bonus. You order at the counter and self serve your own water and drinks, so everything feels quick and casual. The vibes are very nice and aesthetic, clean and modern without feeling too busy.

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.

The serving size was definitely worth it because I had leftovers, and it somehow tasted even better reheated the next day. Always a great sign when the quality holds up after taking it home. Solid spot for pho if you're looking for a satisfying meal with big portions. Note to self: make sure to ask for the chili crisp oil on the side next time. It didn't taste nearly as good without it, and they don't automatically include it. Definitely worth requesting because it adds so much more flavor.

The flavor was on the slightly bland or mild side (very subjective, and I ddin't add extra sauce), but I appreciated that it didn't seem to have MSG. Unlike some pho places where I usually feel thirsty afterward, this felt lighter, which was a big plus. Overall, it was a decent experience. I'll be back to try their bánh mì, Thai iced tea, and Vietnamese coffee.

This place is legit when you see that it is full of local Viet on a Sunday afternoon!…read more The menu is pretty good with authentic Vietnamese food but we normally come here for the S1 Ribeye Hot Stone Pho. They bring out the meat and noodles separately and then the soup in the stone bowl. This time the asked me if I wanted all the greens-- lime wedges, basil leaves, jalapeño slices and bean sprouts. I never eat the bean spouts but use everything else and it always seems a waste of bean sprouts when I don't use them so I was thankful to have them hold the bean sprouts. Be careful as the soup is extremely hot and the hot stone bowl keeps it that way for a while. You fill the bowl to the brim after adding all the meats and noodles. My only complaint is the noodles. They are fresh and just the right texture... very good! But for some reason the always seem to get cut up after I put them into the bowl. Not sure if they cut them before hand but they end up cut short when put them in the bowI. I prefer long slurpy noodles over cut noodles that's hard to pick up with chopsticks. Overall I still give it 5 stars and this one of the two best pho spots in the greater Austin area
