We ordered 25 "pho bo", 26 "Hu tieu tom thit ", 27 "Bun bo hue" all three satisfied a craving we didn't know we had. My number 27 had the perfect balance of sweet/salty/spiciness that had my taste buds dancing for joy. For the ten minutes it took us to savor these dishes there was no conversation as that might distract us from our enjoyment. Words couldn't describe enough... it must be experienced. Today will be an amazing day if this is our start . Denmark thanks you. The U.S. loves you. You are an exemplary example of Vietnamese cuisine. My Danish friends and I will remember to drop by if we are ever near Germany again!

Loved this place! We arrived without a reservation and were seated at a table near the kitchen…read morewhich was the only one available. It was fine and fun to watch the different dishes and drinks pass our way. Service was great and the food was spectacular. I had a chicken stirfry and my husband had the beef stirfry. Both dishes were cooked perfectly and the veggies were all a perfect crisp tender. Again, a wonderful experience and delicious food. They also do a brisk takeout business.

A solid 4.5 stars because it has been my best experience so far with authentic Vietnamese food. The…read morebeef pho tastes great and you know it's an authentic place when they immediately serve you with the REAL siracha (the one with the chicken on the front label, not a duck). The broth was very hearty and delicious. The noodles were not over cooked but just right! I wish their starters were a little bit larger, but all in all friendly service and good experience!

Their PHO is The best!!! I've been a fan of pho for a long long time. Have tasted the original in…read moreHa Noi, but this one is one of the best in Germany! The broth is DEEP and really tasteful. I have tried other dishes from this restaurant as well - and they are delicious too - but their PHO is the best! Other recommendations: Bo La Lot, their duck dishes (especially the crispy duck), and their their original Vietnamese spring rolls (wrapped in crispy rice paper, comes either as a starter or with rice noddles and salads)... YUM!!!!! Staff is friendly, especially the boss! Always very generous!

But I never would have thought that the best Vietnamese food I'd ever had would be in Cologne, Germany. And that it would be vegetarian. But it was. This was my favorite meal in a trip that included Michelin star dining. Great outdoor dining area and friendly staff too. Don't miss it.

My favourite in cologne Absoluter Favorit in Koeln…read moreVielen ist es vielleicht zu voll, aber ich liebe es besonders im Sommer im gemütlichen Hinterhof Ich bin regelmässiger gast und fuer mich gibt es hier das beste Limettendressing der Stadt! Bun Cha Gio und der Bananenbluetensalat sind ein Traum und weltweit das beste bislang! Currys sehr cremig und maechtig muss man mögen. Oft sehr viele nudeln, deshalb bestell ich immer den Bananenbluetensalat Unbedingt nach der wechselnden Karte Ausschau halten! Die Currys davon sind super einzig ein Mittagsangebot wäre cool

As an FYI, it came with plenty of fish sauce (which I'm ok with). If you don't like a lot of it perhaps you should ask for it on the side. The pho was good, not great. Broth was a bit tangier than I've had previously so be sure to taste it before adding any lime. Our server was nice enough to split the pho into two bowls since we were sharing and already ate 2 entrees. Love the mom-and-pop feel of the place. Fyi, they have different pho broths (chicken, beef, duck) which pretty unique since most places just have beef. Their chicken was good so my guess is the chicken pho is probably the tastiest.

Geez, it was so freaking hot that day in Cologne and I couldn't eat heavy German food however…read morehungry I was. We found this Vietnamese place coming from the outskirts of Cologne but it was still closed. We walked in with the arriving staff but immediately got treated very friendly and welcoming. Even though it was very hot weather I was hungry like a bear and I ordered my self straight through the menu. Frankly, at the time I'm writing this review I don't remember what it exactly was but it was delicious for sure, cuz I remember leaving happy and full for the rest of the entire freaking hot day in Cologne.

Das Restaurant liegt im Herzen der Südstadt und bietet thailändische sowie vietnamesische Spezialitäten an. Beim Betreten des Lokals fällt die liebevolle Einrichtung direkt ins Auge.

Die Bedingungen sind freundlich und zuvorkommend. Authentische Speisen, angenehmes Ambiente. Insgesamt ein gemütliches Restaurant, in dem ich mich sehr wohl gefühlt habe. Eine Bereicherung für die Südstadt. Ich komme gerne wieder!

Spring Rolls and Fresh Rolls were good. Stir Fry Noodles and Red Curry were also good. The Tom Yum Goong wasn't bad but was disappointed that they didn't have sticky rice to go with it. The Laab Gai was just meh. Cocktails were amazing and the service was adequate. A cool gesture they do is to serve a complimentary shot of plum wine when your check arrives.
