    We had a craving for pho and decided to try viet citron. It is a tiny place with a few tables. We passed by a million times and never tried before. We tried pho with beef brisket, with additional beef tendon. The soup was tasty, vegetables were fresh, the pho was served hot. We also tried crispy pork belly, which was truly crispy with crunchy skin, but it was a bit greasy. I probably would not order it again. This place was really busy during peak hour. The serves were nice. The food was served in reasonable time. But I was surprised by the price. It was on the high end for pho, although the quality was amazing.

    That juicy pork rib!! So good! Whenever we want bah mi or pho we run to Viet Citron! The restaurante is located in a small shopping plaza with parking. When you walk in they have tablets where you can place your order. We were craving bah mi this time and got their pork rib bah mi with a side of crispy rolls. After placing the order we found seating and then waited for our food to be delivered to our table. It took a while to get our bah mi because they were pretty busy that night but it was so worth the wait! The pork was juicy, cooked perfectly and it was packed with flavor! We each got big chunks of the rib and enjoyed pulling the meat from the bone to construct our bah mi sandwich. The rolls were nice and crunchy and the dipping sauce was very tasty!!

    I have been to this place a few times now. I like the ambiance of the place. You can see the cooks preparing the items. I liked the phos I had there: the farm chicken pho and the beef pho. The beef pho was amazing. The beef broth had an amazing depth of the flavor. I guess the 48 hour cooking makes it so that all the flavors leech out into the deep dark broth. It was surprisingly packed with umami. The chicken pho, while not as deep in flavor, was warming and comforting. The meat in both these pho dishes were cooked perfectly. The noodles were good too. I was mostly a fan of the beef broth. I also tried their fried pork belly banh mi. That is one rich dish. The skin was crackling and the meat was moist. The banh mi bread and the sweet pickled vegetables paired well with the pork belly, helping cut through the fat. All in all, you should give this place a shot.

    My sister says this is one of her favorite places to grab pho on a weekly basis, staying brand loyal even after a move. We were all feeling like we needed a warm bowl of noodle soup, so we finally took her up on the recommendation. The small restaurant was busy when we walked in. There's a main table for a larger group & several smaller tables around it as well as in the back/side of the order counter. We chose one of the side tables so could see the staff putting together takeout or delivery orders and bringing dishes to in-store patrons. I got the everything pho (pho dac biet). I thought it was a perfect portion size (usually they are so large it's intimidating) & had a good amount of meat, as well as yummy broth but I wouldn't say it's my best bowl. Based on their pho though, I can imagine how tasty their banh mi's would be.

    Probably the best pho in Massachusetts, delicious broth, a lot a flavor. Also, vietnamese iced coffee is really good. It's good to have this place in Burlington.

    We went to Viet Citron at the Bow Market this past weekend since the weather was so nice. We got the chicken banh mi and the banh hoi bowl with sirloin. The meats were seasoned well and very tender. The staff were very nice, and we were able to order from a kiosk. The staff answered our questions and were very helpful. I really liked seeing the Vietnamese aunties outside wrapping spring rolls. Was happy to support them. The food is good quality, but a little on the pricey side for Vietnamese food. At the Bow Market location, seating is limited inside and depending on how busy it is outside, might also be limited. It's a very nice ambiance though when it's nice weather. Definitely worth trying though we really enjoyed it!

    The pho here is good--rich broth and solid portions--but it can be a bit pricey, and service is on the slower side. If you're not in a rush, it's worth it. Also recommend trying the bún đậu--surprisingly tasty!

    Viet Citron Review Location: 47 Middlesex Turnpike, Burlington, MA 01803 (near Burlington Mall) If you're craving authentic Vietnamese flavors, Viet Citron is a must-visit spot! While it leans toward a grab-and-go vibe, their food speaks volumes. Here's what we tried: Crispy Pork Belly Banh Mi (8/10) This was a solid take on a classic! The artisan Vietnamese baguette was perfection--crispy outside, fluffy inside. The combo of pickled veggies, jalapeños, cilantro, signature aioli, and garlic soy reduction hit all the right notes. The flavors were spot on, but the pork belly was a little too fatty for my taste. At $12, it's a great deal for a satisfying sandwich! Pho (10/10) The *star* of the show! Their pho is on another level--cooked for 48 hours, and you can taste every bit of effort in the broth. Rich, aromatic, and comforting, it comes with a side of fresh veggies and dipping sauce. Whether you're new to pho or a seasoned fan, this is a must-try. A bowl will fill you up for the day, and at $18, it's worth every penny. Spring Rolls (9/10) Crispy, golden perfection! These fried delights were light, flavorful, and impossible to go wrong with. A great appetizer to share or enjoy solo. --- Overall Thoughts Food: 9/10 Ambiance: 4/10 (Grab-and-go setup with limited seating, but functional!) Affordability: 8/10 If you're shopping at Burlington Mall, skip the food court and head here instead! A giant bowl of pho or a fresh banh mi will leave you satisfied without breaking the bank. What's your go-to Vietnamese dish? Pho? Banh Mi? Spring Rolls? Let me know!

    Megan H.

    I grew up in SoCal and grew up eating very authentic viet food. Banh hoi is pretty hard to find in the US, and I actually haven't seen it anywhere besides California! My boyfriend and I split the banh hoi with crispy pork belly and the banh mi with sirloin. The banh hoi was delicious and filling, pretty much on par with the banh hoi I've had in california. The pork belly was perfectly crispy and juicy. It was also still refreshing and not too heavy because of the fish sauce. The banh mi was also really good, since the beef was perfectly cooked and seasoned. It was on the pricier side, so if you were to just get one item from here, def try the banh hoi!

    Wow! Beef Pho was fantastic!! My husband had the grilled chicken pho and loved it as well!!! Amazing flavors! Cute place! We will be back!

    Phan S.

    Honestly, the food here is pretty disappointing. It's not tasty at all, and the prices are way too high for what you get. There's no table service either. I ordered a bowl of rare beef pho, but the broth was bland and had none of the real Vietnamese flavor -- more like the kind you'd find at a mall food court. Definitely not worth it. I wouldn't recommend this place, and I won't be coming back

    I am a sandwich fiend, and banh mi is easily a top 5 favorite of mine. I've had my fair share of banh mi's. Viet Citron has taken its place at the top of the mountaintop. By far, the best pork belly banh mi I've had....anywhere! Viet Citron sits in a beautiful modern and bright space. Sure the menu features pho, bowls, Viet coffee, and bubble teas....but banh mi will always be king. Too often I run into a version with an overly crusty baguette. Viet Citron has achieved a beautiful crust with the perfect chew. The aioli takes the sandwich itself to another level. But what takes this entire sandwich to culinary nirvana is the pork belly!! The somehow lite crisp is simply remarkable. Some things are you have to experience to understand, and this pork belly fits in that category. Having made crispy pork belly at home myself, I have absolutely no idea how pork belly can turn out like this. It only makes me further appreciate this mastery. Viet Citron....Where have you been all my life? Ok maybe you've only been around a few years, but I genuinely upset at myself for not coming sooner. Side note: in a world of cheap imitations...did I forget to mention how excellent the taro milk tea is?

    Big *ss chicken (left) and Lemongrass sirloin (right) bahn mi's
    John A.

    Traveling through Burlington, and I heard a banh mi calling me from this often talked about, family-owned Vietnamese spot. Fortunately for me, it was conveniently located off the highway. Unfortunately for me, it was a sunny Friday and many others had the same idea. No matter -- Viet Citron's open kitchen concept allowed me to peer into the preparation. One of the chefs wielded an enormous cleaver and was chopping away at meats coming off the grill. Others were buzzing around between the fryer, beverage maker and prepping to-go orders. What a well-oiled machine! What came to me were two giant sandwiches -- we had the lemongrass sirloin (with an au jus sauce) and big *ss chicken varieties. My bad not to expect huge from "big *ss chicken" ! -- although I began to wonder whether everything was just bigger in this place. Sandwiches were tasty, particularly the lemongrass flavor -- but I wanted a bit more -- more depth of flavor from the pickled vegetables and certainly more heat. Also a little pate wouldn't have hurt. If I am back in the area in the colder months (which is most of them in Boston), I'd love to try one of the great looking pho or even the bun bo hue (which is an underrated soup in my opinion). Both looked amazing.

The meats: sirloin, tripe, flank, meatballs were fine. Vietnamese Spring Rolls (3)- Fried with shredded carrots, bean noodles, ground pork and chicken. The shell had a nice crunch, but the filling was bland and underseasoned. Lemongrass Chicken Vermicelli- Comes with lettuce, pickled carrots and daikon, mint, fried onions, peanuts, vermicelli, and fish sauce. The fish sauce helps, but I wasn't a fan of the chicken marinade. Overall Service: I usually end up circling the food court and somehow wind up here, mostly because it's the only Vietnamese stall.

The summer rolls were packed with lettuce and had good taste. The grilled pork vermicelli was very filling. The vermicelli noodles were topped with grilled pork, lettuce, cucumber, sweet daikon radish and carrots, mint, fried onions, and peanuts. A container of house fish sauce was on the side. The grilled pork had good flavor, but it was cut into tiny strips and some were burnt. I wish it had more grilled pork. There was a lot of lettuce, but everything especially with the fish sauce on top, was tasty and delectable. Pho Ever Chicken is a great option in the food court. I am interested in trying their pho next time.

It is a decent serving though, you can definitely eat 2 portioned meals with it if you want but I did expect more for the spice. The Spicy Basil Stir Fry was the dish that was a little disappointing, it lacked flavor, you can actually taste a slight spice but the dish in general was lacking. It was a little too oily almost too wet. Both dishes had a lot of vegetables so if you don't really like a variety of them I wouldn't recommend.
