The menu doesn't even have Vietnamese writing on it. It has Chinese characters. Led by misleading reviews I came here hoping for an authentic Vietnamese meal during my Paris travels, but my trek in the rain to find this place was not rewarded. The interior was tight. You may have to move tables or ask other patrons to get up for you to squeeze into your seat. My boyfriend had the Soupe Tonkinoise au Bouef et Boulettes (11€) which in Vietnamese is a Pho Tai Bo Vien and I had the Riz Luc Lac au Boeuf (12€) which in Vietnamese should be the Com Bo Luc Lac. The meal was affordable and it tasted okay but my issue is the lack of authenticity. Com Bo Luc Lac usually has onions and tomatoes with the beef. This was only beef and there was no sauce glaze on it. Also restaurant usually served it with a side of salad. Vietnam is an agricultural country and most of our dishes usually have a plethora of veggies. My boyfriend isn't even a picky guy but he said his Pho was below average. I'm not sure why this place has great ratings... maybe there was a recent change in ownership and it's no longer what it used to be.

Overdue review for this 5 star (tiny) restaurant…read more My partner and I came in here on a cold winter day to get some Pho and Bun. This place did not disappoint. Soupe Pho au boeuf + nems: 5 star! The broth for the pho was clear, clean, and quite flavorful. I opted for the boeuf which was tender, flavorful and simply delicious. The dish came out hot - perfect for a cold chilly winter day in Paris. Service: 5 star Seating is limited, and a majority of orders are for takaway (emporter), but that doesn't stop the staff from providing 5 star service. I look forward to coming back to this small establishment the next time I am in Paris.

Yesterday at a nice bistro I got a salad to lighten things up, and it had so much creamy dressing, I was right back where I started. Needing a change, I headed for Foyer Mon Vietnam, up a small street close to a pretty happening area of the latin quarter. The place is cozy and welcoming, clean, with plants, warm lighting, and reasonably sized and spaced tables (indoor dining only). The service was super friendly and fast. But best of all the food was so FRESH and DELICIOUS. I walked out with a spring in my step. Tomorrow I will eat a kilo of cheese again, but for now I am light and free! We had crab & shrimp rolls (fried so crispy but not oily at all, with tasty sauce that was tangy, light, and perfect without being goopy/thick, with accompanying lettuce and mint leaves, ordered a 2nd round it was so good), papaya salad (crisp fresh vegetables, fresh shrimp, great light dressing, no overwhelming garlic), lemongrass chicken (good quality white meat chicken, nice variety of colorful vegetables in various shapes that aren't just boring chunks, and just the right amount of spiciness), and white rice to balance it out. Summary is this was fresh, light, high quality ingredients, friendly service, and a welcome break from the otherwise heavy cuisine common in the city. I will be back!

After some searching, I found this place that seemed promising. I ordered the pho, but it was a major letdown. I didn't have high expectations, but it still managed to disappoint. The veggie portion was minimal, the overall portion was small, and the pho had just a hint of its usual aroma. I've had everything from authentic pho to halfway decent versions, but this was bare-bones pho. On the plus side, they didn't dilute the broth, so it wasn't completely watered down. I'd give it 3 stars, but I won't be coming back.

We ordered banh cuốn and my husband ordered the pho special. Banh cuốn took less than 20 minutes to make and pho was served at the same time. Pho special is a must try!!! They also gave us some chips while waiting and the water bottle with the mint inside was a nice touch. Overall, this is a great spot and I would come back to support a family owned business. The server is Chinese. I think she's the owner and there were two girls helping her, maybe her kids. Again you won't be disappointed if you give this a try. Oh I forgot to say they serve fresh noodles!!!!! Amazing ambiance!

We were close to two weeks into our Europe trip and have been craving some good Vietnamese food (I…read moream Vietnamese-American) this whole trip. I got some Pho in London and was disappointed, so I was a little weary to try again. Fortunately, this was quite tasty and the service was exceptional. It's a tiny little shop located in the Latin Quarter and is decorated with various little Asian knick knacks. I was happy to find that the owner/server/chefs were all of Vietnamese descent. The guy/owner was delighted to speak Vietnamese with us and share some stories. The fried egg rolls wear fresh and crunchy. They were smaller than expected but tasty nonetheless. The nuoc mam was good, but lacked the spice I'm accustomed to. My sister ordered the Chicken Satay. It was nothing like I've seen in The States. It was a hybrid of Bo Kho (Vietnamese beef stew) and Kapoon (Lao curry soup). She loved it. Being Vietnamese, my bro and I had to try the Pho Bo (beef) out. It was much better than the pho I had in London! It was more on the herby side than bone/broth side, and had a slight sweetness to it (again, it could just be different than from what I get in the US). It hit the spot. A thing to note: while they will give you sriracha ot, you'll need to request tuong (hoison sauce) - which tastes much different than the tuong Ive had before. It's much runnier here and not heavy and sweet. All in all, a great experience. The food was better than what I had expected, and the service was better even more so. The only reason I notched them down a star is because it's quite pricey for Vietnamese food in my opinion. Those egg rolls ran 8€ when it would usually be $4 in the US.

This place was busy when we came here for a late lunch or early dinner. We sat outside on these little tables and chairs. The pho broth was kind of healthy and light.

Which is a little bit thicker rice noodles. If you are missing and wanting something Asian this could hit the spot for you.
