My fiancé and I got take out from here tonight. Here are some positives: good service, staff listened to our changes (ex: no cilantro), and the food overall was tasty. Everything tasted fresh, no complaints there. However, I had an issue with the portion size to price ratio. My fiancé and I both ordered the regular sized pho. They have a smaller size and a regular size and we 100% ordered regular size. Now, I don't know if something got mixed up, but assuming I got the correct order, a regular size portion is a shallow takeout container with noodles and the toppings and 16oz of broth. That amount of broth is enough to barely cover everything in the already shallow bowl. Also, the bao bun, while super tasty, cost $4.25 and we got one piece of pork belly on it which I was a little sad about! The coconut pudding, also super tasty, was pretty small too and cost $3.00. However, it is a filling dessert so I can understand that pricing and portion sizes. Again, overall this place is good, but I think I've just been a bit more spoiled with other Pho spots I've been to. I've had a lot of places give me a lot more bang for my buck. read more

Hard to find authentic pho in Franklin and this place comes pretty close. Tried the mamas chicken Pho with extra bean sprouts and cilantro and it was very good. I like that you can get extra toppings at no charge and that everything is fresh. Will keep this place in mind next time I'm in Franklin. read more

I've ordered Vui's Kitchen for takeout twice now and really enjoyed it. The online ordering system makes it easy to quickly place an order. The food was estimated to be ready 10-15 minutes after I ordered. It was ready in the promised time. The Chicken Pho was perfect when I had a cold. I added chili oil and loved the flavor of the soup. It was loaded with chicken and veggies too. The Beef Bao Bun was flavorful. The meat on the Bao bun was great. Vui's Bowl was also really good. My kids loved the Kids Rice Bowl. The kids' meals are large enough for my daughters to share. Vui's will be on my list when I'm looking for a healthy meal or a nice brothy soup. read more

Vui's Kitchen is a nice, casual spot for pho in Franklin. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table, which keeps things quick and simple. The pho is decent. Not the best ever but not scary for those who haven't been to a hole in the wall Vietnamese restaurant. It's clean, friendly, and easy for anyone new to Vietnamese food. Overall, a solid choice for a quick, light meal. read more

Big Vui's fan here, first time at this location! Came to pick up pho for my partner and I when a bit under the weather and it was still hot when arriving home.

Alright so I've kind of avoided this place for a little while! Not going to lie and I'm not sure why I have honestly because I've been missing out. Not sure how authentic like hole in the wall style authentic this place is but man is it good and they bring a fast paced, high energy vibe to Thai food. Really a perfect lunch spot right in the heart of Franklin. I loved it and the broth on the side as an option is a nice touch. A lot of local deink options as well. read more

Really, really bad, no flavor. Pad thai had no sauce, just dry noodles. I am so disappointed I wasted $25. read more

The best Pho I've ever had. Their food is awesome. I give them three stars because if you don't leave a tip, you kinda get attitude. I'll give a waitress a tip who comes over and takes my order, fills up my drink, hands me my forks and my knives and then cleans up after my dinner... here like any other fast food restaurant I have to clean up behind myself get my own drinks wipe my table down because they're always dirty... I hate when they give you get an attitude if you don't leave a tip when you're placing your order. I'm sorry I don't tip people who scoop ice cream. I don't tip at the gas station and I'm not gonna tip at a place that I have to do all the work. The food is great but lose the attitude. If you don't get a tip!!! I eat here three times a week... sometimes I leave a tip because I feel guilty because they're for one as they stare at the screen to check and if you don't leave a tip, they'll make a little snide "thank you" You want a tip? Go be a waitress or a bartender. they don't ask for a tip at McDonald's or Whataburger or fast food chain. This is a fast food chain and you make your customers clean up before and after themselves lose the attitude. read more

I like this place . The food is fantastic ! Fresh and healthy .. good reset after the holidays . The employees are friendly and helpful . Bathrooms clean . I like that they have kombucha made locally in Nashville . I get the vegan options and they are good . Portion sizes are big . I like the appetizers . read more

This is a spin on Vietnamese food... not authentic. The Pho broth has a flat flavor - not savory like it was cooked from heavy bone stock.

Yup I don't get it?! People rave about the place and it's just okay. I will say this review is not a reflection of the staff who are really nice and get 4 stars! I wanted to give this place another try but it was disappointing. No Their floor gets a 1 star. Went during lunch and it was sticky and gross. Like your foot got stuck as you walked. The trash was overflowing. The place itself has a lot of seating but tables are so close together, you are in other people's conversations. The food was just okay. More of an Americanized take on Vietnamese food. I gave the fresh Summer Rolls (shrimp) another try and completely bland. Even the sauce was meh. Same as my first experience I had here. My S.O. had the regular Pho (beef) and his broth tasted like dish soap water. It did have lots of ingredients and he ended up having to put a lot of spices to eat it. He actually left all the broth in the end. Pork Belly Bahn Mi was okay, bread wasn't as good as other places. Fully loaded almost a little too much. Pork belly was good but way too much pate. The whole point is for the flavors to blend and pate overpowered it all. The slaw was good but the portion size was like a taster. Of the whole meal, the cucumber salad was the only memorable item. In the future, probably making the drive out of Franklin for Vietnamese food. read more

I was craving a Pho and Vui's Kitchen fulfilled the craving. I also had the grilled chicken and shrimp vermicelli and it was pretty similar to the dishes on the West Coast. I was disappointed that they did not have the deep fried egg roll (Vietnamese style). I ended up buying for my friends. Furthermore, the price was phenomenal. Service.... Was a little rough, but a manager stepped in and resolved things. Again, this establishment did not have the original siracha sauce. It must be a middle TN thing to have a sweet chili siracha. read more

I really enjoyed the pho here! I've had the Beef Pho and the portion is smaller than what I'm used to, but felt like a refreshing meal for one person. The local kombucha they serve is Walker Brothers. Blueberry Jasmine and Cucumber Melon are a new favorite! Overall vibe was nice and the restaurant was extremely clean. Staff was super friendly. I personally don't think I'd buy pho here in the future because of the serving size, but am excited to go back and try different dishes. read more

While vacationing we were looking for something light and came across this little gem. All of the dishes were refreshing and very flavorful. It was just what we where hoping for. The food was delicious but the highlight was the level of customer service we received from Oscar. He was so sweet, engaging, and more than helpful in making recommendations for things for us to do during our visit. We will be back soon. read more

Vui's Kitchen in Franklin is a family favorite for fresh, fast and tasty meals. I always order the Pork Belly Bowl--the char-grilled flavor on the pork belly is excellent, and the dish is very satisfying. The coconut pudding is also a great dessert, smooth and lightly sweet. Tried the pho with chicken recently. It was a little under-salted for my taste, but my wife had Real Salt on hand, so it worked out. I do wish they shared more details about their ingredients, like the quality of the meat, vegetables, and oils they use. If they were premium or organic, I assume it would be highlighted in their marketing. Their loyalty program is a nice perk, offering discounts that make it worth coming back. Overall, it's a good spot with friendly service and fresh options. read more

Had a FANTASTIC experience at Vui's Kitchen today, so I had to update my review... There is a young woman who I believe is new (at least I've never seen her there) working the front counter, and she is exceptional. Super friendly, helpful, positive, and energetic, with helpful recommendations on what to order. She is a great addition to the Vui's Kitchen team. The food is always very good here. The bone broth for the pho is the best I've ever tasted. The Banh Mi sandwiches are excellent with a mix of great ingredients. We've always enjoyed our meals here. Everything is always really fresh and very tasty. They also have Christie Cookies (of Nashville) for dessert. It is great to see the cooperation with another local business. read more

Terrible, bland, flavorless food and tiny portions served at high price point. Don't come to this place

Great food and great service. I always get the vegan pho, edamame dumplings and tofu Bao buns, mix up a little soy sauce and chili oil and add that on top for extra flavor and spice. read more

Dear Vui's, I love you, I think of you often, I miss you when I'm away, and I tell everyone about you. Seriously, there are few restaurants that make me as happy as Vui's. My family & I have been regulars at this location for about a year now, and it never gets old. Vui's is consistently fresh, the service is reliably prompt, and the staff is above & beyond in their kindness! My go-to order is the chicken noodle bowl - it's a hearty serving of flavor, satisfying texture, and subtle spice (I like to kick up the spice with chili oil.) You really can't go wrong with your order... and I would know, I've tried the whole menu! xoxo, Lily read more

Vui's is my favorite and I crave it daily! My favorite thing is the Pho, no noodles, side of Thai noodles instead with a packet of Sriracha and a packet of chili oil! Yummy! Could eat this everyday! read more

I've been to the Vui's up in Nashville on Branford several times but business took me down to Franklin. I've been on a pho kick lately and was happy to see Vui's was in my old work stomping grounds. As always, the pho has a delicious full-flavored broth and you get a good quantity of it. It tastes fresh too compared to the whole-in-the-wall pho shops I go to around the area. The price is affordable for the food but the drinks will set you back since they are a la cart. I wish they'd get fountain drinks, because the amount of sambal & Sriracha sauces I dump in my pho is enough to require at least 24 ounces of a beverage. Either way, you can't go wrong! read more

This is good value for the fast service, price, and taste. It is a little Americanize & marinade on the sweeter side but I love the freshness and abundance of veggies in my bowl. Ordered the chicken bowl with noodles and spring rolls. The spring rolls wrapper were a little dry like it was not made fresh & noodles undercooked which made the texture too dry & firm. Wished I would have ordered the steamed bao instead. Overall the food was fresh & good. I would come back here because it is fresh and fast with healthy options perfect for taking pick up to go. read more

I used to go here all the time. Hadn't been in a while so I thought I'd go by and get some tonight. While most people will comment about the pho, I usually get the bahn mi, with tofu, because I'm vegetarian / vegan. It's nice having options like this. But, I remembered why it had been so long. It just wasn't that good. It has a lot of potential but there are three things that make it a work in progress. I will say the inside is very nice, the staff is very friendly, and the Tractor brand tea they sell is some of the best tea I have ever had, full stop. The bread is not baguette as they say, it is and always has been a hoagie roll. It is always so soggy on the bottom it falls apart. There is no way to pick it up and eat it as a sandwich - it all falls out the bottom. Second, the tofu has almost no flavor to it. Tofu is notoriously difficult to flavor but it can be done, and if you're going to serve it, it pays to fine tune the method. The creamy sauce or spread they use is great. But aside from that it tastes strongly of fresh greens and crunchy cold cucumber, radish, and carrot. The overall flavor is just cold, crunchy, slightly sweet and creamy, with no salt or umami to it at all. It's very thin flavor wise, with or without jalapeños. Thirdly, it's always burnt. Always. The bread goes beyond charred to being burnt on the inside and outside. Charred is a great complementary flavor alongside something stronger and richer, but with the vague sweet and creaminess, and the crunchiness of all the veggies - all pretty light flavors - it sticks out like a sore thumb. read more

Excellent- the yumminess continues to Franklin! It is always so fresh and flavor packed! The edamame dumplings are one of my favorites! I tried the Steak Rice Bowl this time. It was not my favorite Vui's dish, but overall still an excellent experience. Try is out- it will not disappoint! Clean fresh new space. read more

Eaten at Vui's twice on a very positve recommenation. The first time was during the lunch hour. Place was busy with both inside and carryout diners. Food was served hot and our two meals were very tasty..a rice and a noodle bowl, about $30 with a drink. Our next meal was on Saturday mid-afternoon. The dining area was the same cool temperature as the food. Not an enjoyable experience for two unremarkable meals totaling around $25. read more

Sydney and Oscar exemplified charm and expertise in customer service. This was my first visit with my aunt. We will be back. The pho and noodle bowl are yummy and enough for take home. We sat on a clean patio with great music. Perfect spring eatery! read more

We live close by, drive by this location all the time, and finally stopped for dinner. NEVER AGAIN! Fresh rolls had little or no shrimp in them.

Covid-safety-careful Yelpers in search of convenience, this re-Vui's for you. Ups and Downs on the Star Scale of CSoSQFV First Up ...(Very Up)...is their rating for Convenience with a fast-loading web site containing great photos and a quick easy link to online ordering. Definitely 5-stars for us. Second ... 5 stars for Convenient Curbside pickup with 2 designated "Pick-Up Orders Only" spaces right outside the side doors to the restaurant. Make and color of your car on the receipts also helps server deliver your order. Third ... Speed of Service (SoS) perfect. Order on line and choose your time for pickup. I arrived 10 minutes ahead of schedule (not knowing how traffic would be)...BUT my order was delivered curbside within just a few minutes of my arrival. 5 more sparkles here. Quality ... First-rate high quality very fresh ingredients provide the base for the Pho add-ins. 5 stars. Pork Belly was nicely grilled and rich. Pate - ok. However, the baguette for the Bahn Mi was very disappointing. Even the looks gave away the "submarine sandwich-hoagie-hero-whatever" bread. It was definitely not a true-to-tradition, crunchy and crusty mini loaf. Would have been perfect for a Philly cheesesteak, but not for a Bahn Mi. 3 stars for this one. Flavors - Spot-on for the most part. My wife was very disappointed with the generous portion of Pho broth. For her it lacked any depth of flavor, while for me it was more of a meh, s'ok. I simply boosted mine with Hoisin and Chili. (And I liked the add-in sliced fresh jalapeños too.) Note: the add-in-at-the-table rice noodles got a little gummy packed on the bottom for the ride home. No biggie.) So, altogether, this dish gets 3 or "Pho-ur" of our stars. Tofu Spring Rolls with peanut-style sauce....very good. 5'er. Value - again, all things considered this was a pretty good deal. About 40 bucks plus tip for a filling, double order of Pho, good Spring Roll, and so-so Bahn Mi. read more

Good Vietnamese food. Fresh ingredients, tasty, but definitely not the best Ive had. Being from a town w/lil to no Vietnamese food...I make it point to sample out of town spots. I definitely thought its was good & better than none at all, but really found it quite lacking. Id give it a 3-3.5 stars. Not to be mean at all...just truthful. There are definitely more authentic spots w/a more diverse selection for those of us w/a diverse pallet. Would lobe to hear ur thoughts too. read more
