As we were driving home, we stopped in Harrisonburg for lunch. We ordered the combination pho, spring rolls- pork and shrimp, and a pork banh mi. All of the food was solid, but the summer rolls did have way too much lettuce. They did load up the meat in the pho and I really appreciated that!However still overall would recommend! All of the servers were quick and attentive. It was a very casual, but mom & pop vibe. We were in and out in under an hour to head back on our road trip! Would recommend and will be back soon again!
Absolutely great pho! The best in Harrisonburg.! Great home-style Vietnamese food. It's a small spot. You walk in and seat yourself and a waiter/server will come and take your order. Sometimes if the place is super packed then you're gonna have a wait but that only means the food is good. With it being packed that also means the typical "busy" restaurant stuff might happen.
I love this place! This is my and my boyfriend's go to pho place. Whenever we venture to Harrisonburg, this is usually the place we stop for food. It's a cute little store that I believe it family owned and ran. The staff is all nice (and not judgmental with my "no veggies" order of pho ). Great food for a great price! Cant go wrong eating here!
I was driving on I-81 on a rainy Sunday afternoon in mid June and noted hunger. My Happy Cow app offered Vietopia as an option. The restaurant was quite easily accessible off of the interstate. I was able to park within 10 feet of the entrance. There was a couple just preparing to leave when I made my grand entrance as was immediately greeted by a friendly young Vietnamese woman whom i heard saying that she was the manager. Being naive regarding Vietnamese cuisine, she patiently answered my queries and took my order. I decided upon the vegan soup and Vietnamese iced coffee and was seeved within 10 minutes. The soup was piping hot, complemented by iced coffee which was good, and the soup was simply delicious. The ingredients are listed on the photo of the menus which I'll post by and by. As I type this, there are now about 5 people in the restaurant, 3 of who are ordertake out. When I informed the manager/server of my 5 star Yelp review, she squealed in joyful appreciation.
My wife and I have been here a few times and we love it! We always enjoy their appetizers like the shrimp blankets and the spring rolls. Our favorite tho is the pork banh mi sandwiches and the pho. It never disappoints! Service is really good too and it's always a chill and friendly environment. I definitely recommend this place!!
Food came out very fast! Good service. Spring rolls were fat but mostly lettuce. Grilled pork was tasty. Pho broth was light and the soup had a lot of meat. Condiment selection was really great! Most pho places I go to don't have fish sauce and sate on the table but this place did!
Overall, 3.5/5 but will bump it to a 4/5. Pho for lunch this past Sunday was a mood given the cold chilly weather. I came here with a big group, and fortunately, they were able to sit all 12 of us at the long table within 15-20 minutes of waiting. This place is popular and definitely seem to be a local favorite of Harrisonburg! We ordered pretty soon after and didn't wait too long for food. K2. FRESH SPRING ROLLS WITH PORK & SHRIMP (2) - 4.50 For someone who lives in Nova, $4.50 for two spring rolls (with meat) is a complete steal. The spring roll was very enjoyable, and the peanut sauce had a nice consistency that made it easy to scoop up. I really enjoyed the nutty, sweet and tangy flavors of the sauce. I'd recommend giving them a try here. A9. Tái, Chín, Nạm, Gân, Sách - 11 First thing first, I sip the broth on its own. It was seasoned enough, but I felt like it lacked the depth of beef bone broth that I was hoping for. The broth didn't have much flavor (very diluted beef) with mainly just salt/MSG. I really liked the texture of the pho noodles here, though. The cuts of meat felt a bit off with its coloring and texture. I was pretty disappointed by the pho here and probably won't get it next time. One of my friends got the banh mi here and raved about the quality and fair pricing. There's definitely good non-pho options here, but unfortunately, the pho here wasn't satisfying for me. Their rice dishes seem promising, though!
THIS IS THE BEST PLACE EVER !!! I go here like twice a month I LOVE it. The pho broth is insanely good and the portions are huge; everything here tastes incredible. I highly recommend to everyone !! It's the best pho in the burg. The service is also incredible, as the place is family run and they are super quick and attentive :) Make sure to leave a good tip ! The only bad thing about coming here is you'll never want to go anywhere else
Love the pho here! It tastes clean and not oily. The meat was so juicy too. Would totally recommend especially on a cold night!
I'd be surprised if they marinated their meats for 24 hours. Cause based on the flavor, depth, saturation of the sauce, tenderness, and savory quality to them... I'd expect them to be marinated for at least 48 or even 72 hours. The super delicious marinate completely penetrated the entirety of the meat. They were perfection.Expertly grilled as well. I mean... man... I wish I knew their secrets. This place would kill in D.C. I say that just so you know that this isn't just great Vietnamese food for the area it's in, where there are not a ton of Vietnamese options. This Vietnamese food could stand strong against most other Vietnamese hole-in-the-wall restaurants I've been to in the DC area. Can I also compliment the perfectly cooked, fluffy, insanely good rice. I feel like rice is an often overlooked side dish to certain cuisines. But when it's good... man it's good. I got the banh mi, which you guessed it, was served on perfectly warmed french bread that has a mildly crispy exterior and a soft chewy interior. The grilled pork I got inside of it was bathed in flavor. I wish it had a few more jalapeños and more fresh cilantro, but it was QUITE good and I wouldn't hesitate to order it again. The grilled chicken and rice platter I got was made up of most of the components I've been raving about. I will say that the light sauce that was served with (nuoc cham I believe it's called) it was 90 percent fish sauce. I think it could have been a bit more balanced. And the spring rolls I got had lettuce in it that didn't seem to match the pinnacle of freshness of most other things. It wasn't rotten or anything, just a bit more yellowish green than bright green. But the peanut sauce that was served with the fresh rolls was expertly balanced. It was hard not to use the entire generous portion they gave me. 100 percent worth a trip if you're in the area. The chef definitely has some skill in the kitchen, and I wouldn't be surprised to find myself in there sometime soon. I could eat it for dinner again tonight having just gone yesterday.
This is where my man found out about bahn mi's lol. I told him that they are so good and we should go get one with pho on our trip here earlier this year. He has been crazy about it ever since. He lives in the VA beach area and said no bahn mi comes close to the one we had at Vietopia. It's seriously so good. The pho was delicious as well. This visit, we had the egg rolls, chicken wings, and bahn mi. We sat and ate the chicken wings in almost complete silence. Listen - if you want FLAVOR! The chicken wings here are the place to go. They're so sticky and scrumptious. This is our spot. I can't come here without him. But we will definitely visit again. read more
Shopping for kitchen reno in Harrisonburg when hunger strucks and fortunately, Vietopia was opened early at 10:30a for lunch. Plus how cute is the name. Clean, simple space. Food was quick & easy. Hubs enjoyed his rice platter. I rarely have beef pho but the chilly morning called for it. Good portions, friendly service- solid Viet spot. read more
We were staying near the Massanutten area for and wanted to take a break from some of the american food we were eating on our trip. I will admit I am not the biggest fan of Pho as I don't eat beef and have been disappointed in the past by most non-beef Pho options. However, this place has great reviews so I wanted to check it out. One thing about me, even if I don't like something, I will always keep giving it another shot! I'm so glad I did because the moment we walked in, I could tell this place would be good. It smelled incredible in there! Also this place was packed, and more and more people kept coming in within the hour of them being closed. You can definitely tell that this is a local favorite, especially for JMU students. I got the seafood pho and was blown away! It was so flavorful and actually tasted phenomenal. I ate every bit of it. In the past I've found Pho to be bland, but not this one! I added a ton of condiments and such to it which made it even better. My husband got a weekend special, I believe it was a pork chop plate and he really enjoyed his dish as well. read more

One of the few Vietnamese places in the area! I was driving down towards Roanoke and stopped in Harrisonburg to get my fix of Vietnamese food. The staff was very nice - the chef came out and even talked to us because I ordered one of his favorite dishes, the Bo Luc Lac (shaking beef). The portions were excellent - it comes with rice. It was a bit salty, we could barely finish it. But the flavor was there. We also got the Mi Xao Don, and spring rolls. Unfortunately, no pho this time but I was looking around at other peoples bowl and it looked very good. I might have to try it the next time I'm in Harrisonburg! read more

Visiting from out of town and we were craving Vietnamese food. We ordered the Chicken Spring Rolls, Pho (the special), grilled chicken bahn mi, and a Thai Tea with Boba. The food came out quickly, the server was pleasant, and the food was absolutely delicious. We are so hungry we forgot to take photos. Definitely worth a try! The only thing I would not re-order was the Thai Tea with boba. read more
Arrived early (5 pm) Sunday to an empty restaurant. As we ate the business picked up considerably. It took a bit for our waitress to come to our table, but we were fine spending time looking over the options. My wife asked for opinions about two options and our young waitress really had no useful information to help. Her dish of beef, shrimp and noodles came out quickly after ordering. My dish arrived at least 5 minutes later (a pet peeve of mine). It didn't look as I expected, so I asked to see a menu again and told our waitress I didn't think I got what I meant to order. She confirmed i ordered W5 the crab soup. What she told me was crab tasted more like ground pork. What she told me was pork appeared to be half round slices of bologna, and I never encountered a shrimp. It also contained tofu and a tiny (quail?) hard boiled? Egg. Neither of those was in the description. The broth and noodles were tasty. The ground pork/crab was good. The pork? Bologna was rubbery and rather tasteless. My wife's dish appeared and tasted as described and was fairly good. read more

My sister and I rode over to Harrisonburg for a little outing and decided we were in the mood for Pho. We found four places after a google search and settled on Vietopia. Walking in, we were a little worried about how close the seating was but found a good space and settled in. I can truly say the seating space was the ONLY thing we had to worry about there. The staff, the one girl who waited on us was so kind. She gave recommendations and was helpful. I can say we ordered and no more that 10 minutes later were they bringing out the dishes we ordered. This was definitely a 10/10 experience. Big thanks to the server who helped us pack up our leftover Pho! read more

We're on the road and we saw this Viet restaurant on our exit app so we decided to stop by. We loved it! Great lunch combo with a beef broth. The pho had a nice beefy flavor as well. If we drive down the same path I'd stop again. Real cute place 0.6 miles down from the highway. Kinda tucked behind this big tree line. read more

There aren't too many options for Pho and Banh mi in Harrisonburg... this review isn't comparison to all other Vietnamese places I have eaten and are available to me... But if you are a college student, live in or are traveling through H-burg and need your pho/viet fix then this is the place! The place is small but has enough seating for a large group of 15-20 and about 8 tables for 2-4 people. The food is clean and staff are friendly and helpful. The broth for Pho is why you should come here... it's deep and flavorful and hits the spot when you're cold or just in the mood. I really enjoyed the pork and shrimp vermicelli and would get it again... my only critique is that my noodle was slightly overcooked and I hope it's just a one time error. I plan to try again so we'll see. I'll change the rating accordingly. The shrimp and pork spring roll was a bit dry from being left out but the amount of ingredients was generous and filling. I would add a bit of sriracha for a nice kick to the peanut sauce. I'm glad I have an option for Pho at H-burg... come check it out! read more
