    Chicken and vegan phos (L to R), with the tater/tofu appetizer. Yummy!
    Will L.

    A busy establishment near the stadiums and Showbox SODO. The place advertises itself as a Sports Bar--it has the largest screen known to man which is visible (I'm not kidding) from the Southwest Corner of T-Mobile Park--but no one there tonight paid any attention to the Sports. They were there for the Pho!! Great set of options for Pho, too. You can go with the more traditional slow-cooked beef broth, to chicken, to briny chicken, to even a couple options of vegan pho. We ordered both the chicken and vegan, and tater tot/tofu appetizer. All was super delicious. (The tater/tofu thing may sound weird, but it was tasty, especially the sauce.) They also have a super selection of beers and ciders, all bought by the ounce. Order a drink card with your order so that you can enjoy however much you want of your favorite brew. The place was a bit noisy, mostly due to the sports TV. But it wasn't too loud that we couldn't have a nice conversation. Arrive early. The place was hopping by 6:30, with limited seating options at that time.

    Easily the best pho in the city. Suppose they get crowded at game time, as they are just a few steps away from the stadium; however, when we stopped by it was quite empty and airy. Ordering is self service at a kiosk, which is fine by me - I appreciate any effort to keep business hands- and contact-free. That doesn't mean, though, that you won't benefit from the bright smiles of the staff, which we did. They could not be more eager to help. The place is large, and I was actually introduced to it due to a fundraiser held here. I tried the pho then (the veggie pho with veggie broth) and had to take the spouse back for another go, which we finally did over the weekend. Wow! The pho is still amazing. To add, I love Vietnamese food yet rarely actually get the pho. Coming to Vinason, though, the pho is a MUST. The broth is divine. The epitome of homey and cozy. And the portions are much bigger than they look. We also ordered the chicken wings, which the spouse loved. In other words, 100% stamp of approval. Will return! Thank you!

    $10 pho Monday is a great way to try their best pho. Got the steak pho using the QR code on table to order but it got ordered for takeout and I had to have them assemble for me for dine in. Tasty broth and the Siracha sauce has got some fire. I'd probably order extra meat next time. All in all a great meal for $10 plus tax and tip.

    We came here again before driving to North. We wanted to bite Vietnamese sandwich quickly. You must first order at the kiosk near the entrance. No service at the counter or tables. Order what you want to eat while looking at the screen. Bottled water costs $2, but there is also free water on the left side of the store when you pick up your food counter. Everything is self-service, so you order and pick up your food. I like atmosphere of inside and outside patio area. Anyway we like All Natural Lemongrass Pork Banh Mi. So yummy. Try it!

    I'm so happy my husband works so close to this Vinason Pho Kitchen location, because he can pick me up an order of delicious Pho when he decides go into his office. The service is really good, and atmosphere is perfectly aligned with the SoDo district. I greatly appreciate the ease of to go order and how often the app communicates the preparation phase of your order. The pho is SPECTACULAR, any time I can sip the broth alone (even when full,) means the flavor is on point. On the this order I forgot to request additional vegetables, but again the broth is so flavorful I just sipped the broth once I ate the vegetables. I definitely will return and highly recommend Vinason Pho Kitchen-SoDo!

    This place had been on my list for awhile and I finally was able to check it out! I ordered the adult capri sun and let me tell you, it was delicious and refreshing! Would come back for that! My partner got the beer self pour card and he said they had plenty of options (I tried a watermelon cider which was good). We ordered drinks and played card games but later got hungry and ordered the tots which were good! We went on a Thursday around 2pm and it was empty. I can imagine during game day it is packed! Overall cool vibes and would return.

    So happy there's a pho place right across T-Mobile park. The space is huge with the big screen TV on the wall. Love that they have the self dispense beer & wine station. Food is also so good!! Great place to grab drink, quick bite and watch the game!

    The chicken wings are so crispy and flavorful The oysters are juicy and orgasmic Garlic noodles will keep you from making out with the others , bomb dot com Must try the purple rain drink

    Went for the Seahawks game yesterday and had a greats time! The salt + pepper wings were fire and a great deal, $5 shots and a DJ. This is the place to be on game day!!!

    Quite a lot of food.

    Dinner tonight with some of our favorite urban epicures, and this restaurant was a perfect combo of experiences for our guests. First of all, and most importantly, the food. We ordered it easily from the ordering kiosks at the front door, and it came out really quickly. We had a broad sample of food from the menu, including tots, egg rolls, pho, vegan pho, garlic noodles, and a banh mi sandwich. Everyone was very happy with their food, which was freshly prepared and all very hot from the kitchen. I appreciated the crispness of the broccoli in my pho (perfectly blanched) and the delicate savory flavor of the pho broth. The tots were fantastic - very hot, very crunchy, just what you want a tater tot to be. The meatballs were very good, there wasn't quite enough sliced beef, and the basil was a little on the tired side, but the bean sprouts, lime, and jalapeno were perfect. Egg rolls were super hot, right out of the fryer, and crisply tasty. I would say the food was a solid 4 to 4.5 out of 5. The beer wall was awesome and very entertaining. The guests sampled a tiny bit of almost everything and, while they didn't find one they particularly loved, they really enjoyed the opportunity to wander up, pour a little bit of something, and see if they liked it. An added plus was non-alcoholic local root beer and one of my favorite drinks, Seeking Kombucha's Purple Rain, on tap. In addition, this system is great because you're not dispensing one ounce pours - your beer card opens the tap and you pay for what you dispense, whether it's .5 oz or 5 oz. Awesome experience! The immense TV was great. It was baseball at first (one guest's favorite) and then two of us were delighted that it switched to the Kraken game. Also - there's a cart of games to play while you are waiting for your food. Our food came out really quickly but we enjoyed playing one of the tabletop games while we were waiting - it was a fun way to pass the time (in addition to watching sports on the giant TV or the smaller TVs). The only negative was parking. We parked in the Home Plate Garage that's in the same building, got locked in because we were having such a great time at Vinason (we were 7 minutes after the garage closed), had to get let in to the garage, and then could not get out of the garage because the machine won't take metal credit cards AND it ate and would not return our plastic credit card, so we lost a credit card in the machine. Unfortunately a not-great ending to an otherwise awesome evening.

    Looking for some great food, a clean place to eat and use the restroom or pass some time before the game? Look no further than Vinason Pho Kitchen! We have walked by this place several times over the past year on our way to a Mariners or Sounders game, but this weekend, we were determined to try it out when it opened prior to the afternoon Mariners game. It is a self service ordering and beer/cider/wine pouring system with lots of choices on tap! We tried the pork bahn mi--such a fresh set of flavors and crisp veggies...and the pork...so good!! Sweet and savory! My favorite thing had to be the sauce that is available to add to anything on the side next to the pick up area...we tried the habanero ginger sauce, and it was a-maze-ing. I like spicy, and this was the sauce I added to all of my items to kick it up a notch! Don't miss out! We also had the bahn mi tots and the small pho. We would definitely have these again!! I DO wish the had multiple options for the bahn mi bites and not just shrimp, but that's okay...next time! Next time, we will have to try the shrimp bahn mi bites and the wings...we have to save something to try for our next visit!

    What a vibe!! Came here to check the place out after seeing it on TikTok and it lived up to its hype. My friend and I stopped for an early lunch but realized they have happy hour deals for their apps and beer from 2-5pm and decided to come back later. We came in on a weekday so it was fairly slow but it began to pick up around 4pm. I'm not much of a drinker but my friend enjoyed the beer wall, such a cool feature! All the food came out fairly fast and fresh, we ordered just the apps which were so filling on their own. My personal fav were the tofu taters - never thought the combo of tater tots and tofu would be so good. Definitely recommend coming in during their happy hour, you'll get a bang for your buck! I personally liked the self-serving kiosk, but the service was also attentive and friendly. Perfect place to stop by for a quick bite/drink before or after watching a game across the street. Food: Garlic noodles Tofu taters Shrimp bahi mi bites Wings Oysters Pho taters Drink Iced peach lychee tea - would recommend getting it with light ice Beer wall - my friend was definitely living her best life with this

    Beer station!  Great selection.

    This is a really interesting restaurant. It is obviously born out of the pandemic: everything is pretty much serve yourself, and you need to love technology to eat here. The menu is only available via QR code or kiosk -- but it's not just a menu, it's a full-fledged app you need to use to order both to-go and in-restaurant dining. There are no servers, you get a notification on the app (or tv on the wall) when your order is up, and you can go fill your own beer from one of the 30+ taps on the wall. Just load funds on your beer card and go pour it yourself. I guess it's kinda cool that in you could place your order on the way to the restaurant and it would be ready when you arrive, but in a sit down restaurant I don't want to just come in, plop myself down, and start scarfing my food. Slow down your life already. Is it efficient? Probably. But it feels impersonal and you'd better not have any menu questions because you don't have a server. The people behind the counter are busy preparing food and other tasks. I will say I'm not a fan of these type of restaurants. I guess I'm a bit old school and would prefer not to be screwing around with some website on my phone at the table. It works fine, but what happens when it doesn't? Chaos? This restaurant takes counter-service to a new level as you have zero contact with any of the employees unless you need to pick up an alcohol debit card. Well, no tips for you guys. With tipflation and zero employee interaction, I didn't feel bad about not leaving one. There is of course a bullshit $2 "operating charge" on the bill though. Since there is no service I'm not sure what the fuck that means. Operating your business, I guess? Are we just paying the machines now? And what the hell is with a $0.25 bag charge? I didn't order take out. See my picture of the receipt. The space itself is pretty cool. It's a really nice large open layout with a huge screen for watching games. I imagine it's packed on game days, and looks like it'd be a great place to hang out. The menu has lots of game-day style appetizers that look pretty fun, like tots, wings, all that kind of stuff that you might not expect to find in a traditional Vietnamese restaurant, but is a great idea for the location. The food was really good -- I was impressed. The banh mi was great! Especially with some of the habanero ginger Sriracha on it. Spicy and delicious! Pho was good, as were the fried egg rolls. Unfortunately I'd call them a rip off because you only get two for $10! I thought there would be more. Won't do that again. The other menu items are also a bit pricey but not entirely unexpected in an upscale location like this. I am not a huge fan of the beer station. It looks cool, it's a cool idea, but I don't like paying $8 for a glass of foam. In a real bar they would pour some of this out as it's usually the warm liquid sitting in the beer line since the last person poured from the tap. It foams up, and if you over-pour, you just paid a dollar to dump beer down the drain. That said, the selection is great and it's hard to complain about beer, but there you go. Overall we'll probably be back. Solid food and great location!

These were presented on the side so I could dress the burger as I liked. The whole thing was delicious. I had a well gin and tonic at the HH price of $8.95.

Parking was free and plenty of it on the streets. I visited on Super Bowl Sunday, about 2-3hrs before the game to get seats. This was a good idea because there was only a handful of seats available. We were lucky enough to get a table for 4 of us. The hosts were very welcoming and go us seated at the bar when it was only two of us. When we informed them about an hour prior to kick off that we needed two more seats, they did their best to get us seated. It was very kind of them to even look around, let alone actually find us space. This was very much appreciated. The first hour or so, when there was only two of us, we had a few beers, the cheese curds and the chicken fried steak with potatoes. The beers were exactly what you think they would taste like and they weren't terribly expensive which was nice. The cheese curds were a great shareable item, good flavor and a fair amount of them. The chicken fried steak was good, nothing crazy, but not below average. Portion was good sand it was cooked right to have that nice crips on the outside with the gravy poured over top. I think the only thing I wasn't that big of a fan of was the potatoes, I should've opted for the tots or hash potatoes instead, but I'll have to try it again. Yes, I would recommend this place. Seems like a good place to meet with friends for a game and meet friends. I almost forgot to mention they have an outside area in the back was is covered so there's more than enough space to maneuver and enjoy your time.

I made a reservation ahead of time, but when we got there around 8 pm we realized we probably didn't need one because it was seat yourself and still pretty open. No complaints though, it made it easy to grab a table and settle in. The vibe was cool. Definitely a sports bar feel with TVs around, and as the night went on the DJ started getting set up which I can imagine makes it a fun spot on a Friday night for people meeting up after work or hanging out with friends. We decided to share a few things so we could try a little bit of everything. We ordered the catfish bites, lemon pepper wings, garlic parmesan wings, and macaroni and cheese. I'll start with the positives because the service was great. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a difference. Food-wise, it just didn't totally hit for me. The catfish bites had a really tasty batter, but the texture threw me off a little. I personally like my catfish cooked a little harder, and these were a bit soft for my liking. The lemon pepper wings were a little too salty for me, and the wings themselves weren't cooked quite the way I like them. I tend to like my wings cooked a little harder, so these felt a bit soft and bulky to me (if that makes sense). The garlic parmesan wings were okay flavor-wise, but still similar in texture. The macaroni and cheese was okay. Nothing bad, just pretty standard. The menu itself has a good mix of comfort food and bar favorites like chicken and waffles, shrimp & grits, burger & fries....so there are definitely options to try. Overall, the service were great, the vibe was cool and I can definitely see this being a fun spot once the DJ gets going and the place fills up. The food just didn't quite land for me personally this time. I gave it 3 stars, but if Yelp allowed half stars it would probably be closer to a 3.5 for me. I'd still be open to coming back and trying a few other things on the menu.
