The summer roll was so fresh! My companion got beef banh mi which was incredibly tasty! My tofu & veggie pho was filling. Both were presented beautifully with taste to match.

I waited for about 6 minutes before the hostess showed up and I was seated. They were very accommodating about my party size changing last minute and seating me in a more comfortable spot until my party arrived. The food was amazing though. I had the red curry with chicken and rice and my friends ordered wontons and lettuce wraps. Everyone loved their food.

I googled "best Vietnamese in Louisville" and this place popped up. I have to say the food was…read moredelicious. I had the pho with shortribs and BWE ordered pho with beef. We had the fried tofu appetizer. The fried tofu came with a sweet chili sauce and was so good. When you bite into it there's a nice little crunch which is immediately met by the creamy interior (be careful it's hot!) and the flavor is amazing. The pho...oh my, the pho! The broth was full of flavor. The short ribs were tender. It was amazing! So...what's with the one star? I debated with myself on this but I had to give one star for the service. It was horrendous. We walked in and stood by the entrance for a good 10 minutes before anyone who worked there acknowledged us. We were finally seated, and, no lie, it took another 35 minutes before we got water (more on that in a minute). After we were seated, we knew exactly what we wanted so we closed our menus and waited...and waited...and waited...and waited. Thirty minutes after we sat down he finally took our order along with two other tables of two, who were seated well after we were (make it make sense). The two tables who came after us but ordered at the same time as us received their food a good 10 minutes before we did. I was beginning to think he didn't like us for some reason. I had no interaction with him. Didn't know him. So I don't know why he wouldn't like us. There was another couple who he seemed to know. He sat them quickly, took their order, and gave them their food--all in the span of about 20 minutes. Why was our service so bad? Needless to say--one star. If you don't mind horrible service...oh yeah, about that water. My water glass had something stuck to it. It was nasty! Should never have been given to a customer. Since we were, for the most part, being ignored, I had to walk over to him and ask if I could have a new glass. He mumbled "oh yea" and brought me a new one with a "sorry bout that" while he was walking away. Horrible service. If you don't mind horrible service, the food is great. I won't be going back.

The tofu was tasty, I wish the sauce was served in a bowl instead of underneath, because it was hard to fully coat. The entrées were packed with flavor, nothing was too strong or salty.

Food was delicious, this is a place I look forward to returning.

First impressions: very clean facility, very warm and welcoming owner (Trieck was his name) and his adorable daughter doing homework by the cash register. He very kindly explained how he understands that vegetarian pho does not have meat And that he has the Buddhist version of the pho that his mom eats. I ordered to go because I wanted to run next door to their grocery section. I love me a good Vietnamese grocery store and products from all over the world. Pho is typically eaten at the establishment to make sure that the fix-ins and the method of consumption is 10 on 10 aka it does not hold very well when transported. I was happy to find that they had done such a great job packaging all the fixings and the soup. Very generous portions. I proceeded with the taste test. I have learned from my Vietnamese friends that you never add condiments to your soup right off the bat. You must savor the soup the way it is the first couple times to truly get all the flavors in before you start adding stuff . This was excellently seasoned broth base. The base was just perfect to me. After creating the whole experience at home, I can say I truly did enjoy eating pho from here. Good vegetarian phos are hard to come by and I will definitely return to try their other delicacies. If I had a couple words of wisdom, I think the soup could use a few more pieces of vegetables and tofu. But overall, I throughly enjoyed my meal and will return.

It's a little spicy, but also sweet and creamy at the same time. It's good with any of the meat options. My fiancé loves the Saigon noodles. Their fresh rolls are packed full with the best ingredients and served with an amazing peanut sauce--I could drink it. I love their pho too. I've tried all the meats and each one is great. The broth itself is full of flavor. Don't let the inside fool you--NamNam has some of the best food in the city.

It was busy at lunchtime on a Friday. The cafe is so cute! Charmingly decorated. We ordered at the counter, took a table number and found our seats. One note about that: being a large person, the seats made me a little nervous. Next time i would opt for booth seating which looked a bit more substantial. Our entrees were brought out before our appetizers, but they looked so good I didn't even care. Couldn't wait to dig in. I had Pho Ga chicken noodle soup. It was served nice and hot with a bowl of raw herbs and add ins. Sprouts, fresh jalapeño slices, a lemon wedge etc. it was so delicious with complex flavors. I finished every drop. Appetizer was pork on a stick. Tender inside, crisp and sweet outside. Two skewers was plenty for us. My daughter had the lemon grass chicken with a fried egg. It looked great, she said it was very good. Our food was appealingly presented, and service was good. We each drank water and our bill was over $36. Not cheap for lunch but not outrageous and quality and portion sizes justified the cost. We will definitely return to try more menu items.

Their soup had a very nice flavor so I know I would've liked their pho had I had gotten it. The rice plate came with an egg, which was cooked perfectly. It was a nice crisp on the bottom and slightly runny on the top. The egg meatloaf was also pretty good. In all, I didn't have a bad experience. I would probably come back here again if I were in the area.

I got the bun bo hue, and it was wonderful. I loved trying the different types of meat in there, the brisket being my favorite by a long shot. My boyfriend tried pho for the very first time, and the look on his face after the first spoonful was magical. He absolutely loved it and was begging me to go back as soon as we could. Overall we had a great experience. The locale is no-frills, doesn't pretend to be anything it's not, but it delivers on the food big time. Would highly recommend!

Try: Garlic Noodles!…read more Why: Really good Garlic Noodles with great buttery garlic flavors. I added lemongrass tofu since I had tons of meat the day before. I enjoyed each bite! Spring Rolls did miss the mark for me - a bit bland including the sauce. Mango Iced Tea was refreshing (self-serve and you can sweeten yourself if you please). Notes: I came on a Monday for early dinner and it was empty. The worker was awesome - welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Love the decor like the lanterns hanging from ceiling. Spacious dining area with large tables. They also have a bar area and patio seating in back. I'd come back for the noodles and would like to try other dishes and cocktails.

The sauce had the perfect balance of creamy and slightly sweet and made the rolls even better. The tofu pad Thai was excellent. The tofu was cooked really well and the noodles had a great balance of savory, tangy, and slightly sweet flavors without being overly heavy. The green curry fried rice with chicken was probably my favorite. It had that rich green curry flavor with just the right amount of spice, and the chicken was tender. The rice was perfectly cooked and really fragrant. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. Definitely a place I'll continue to frequent.

The pad thai was filling with just the right amount of spice. It's hard to judge pad thai because every place makes it a little differently and you just know when it's good or not -- this was perfect pad thai IMO! I also got some shrimp fresh rolls with peanut sauce, an absolute must of an appetizer. This meal brightened my day probably more than it should have, but hey, I'll take it. Love that Time 4 Thai is so close and is easy to count on for good food.
