A menu true to its namesake with all things Asian from pho to pad thai, plus a buffet.

First time here upon arrival it was busy business was booming for sure , it was a very family oriented restaurant, everyone from the host to the kind serves were amazing and have personality !! We were brought water and ordered our drinks for starts we had the imperial shrimp , shrimp wrapped and fried crispy and golden 10/10, my significant other had the yellow curry it was THE BEST CURRY we have had .. the balance of flavors were immaculate 10/10. I came for the pho I had a chicken and shrimp broth it was a light broth with little to no flavor , I had the egg noodles with it I loved the texture of them I just thought the broth would have wayyy more flavor so I’d give it a 1/10 , I would def try another pho . And we would come back here to try different plates. The portions you get for the price are amazing!!

Best krab rangoons I’ve had in a long time. Big, crunchy, fluffy, and stuffed full. Duck rice noodle stir fry and lemongrass vermicelli were both delicious. Portions are big and served surprisingly fast. Service is very friendly, fast, and efficient. Can get busy but everyone is still taken care of in good time.

888 Pan Asian in Austin delivers that nostalgic, classic Asian restaurant vibe the moment you walk in. The space is cozy with comfy tables and chairs, warm lighting, and a spotless dining area that feels genuinely cared for. The staff keep things moving smoothly — attentive without hovering.
Sticking to tradition, the portion-to-price ratio is excellent. You won’t leave hungry, and the fact that rice comes included (and in a generous portion!) is a refreshing throwback in a world where everything isn’t à la carte. The dishes are flavorful, leaning a bit heavy on garlic and onions — which some will love and others may find a touch bold — but overall the food quality is solid and comforting.
Nothing overly fancy, just honest cooking and a familiar atmosphere that hits exactly what you want when you’re in the mood for classic Asian comfort food. We’ll definitely be back.

888 is a staple for any old ATX people who still love the familiarity of their beloved town. They were one of the few that didn’t fall to the ‘Ronie Days of 2020, and they were one of the first to be available to the public when things went catty wonkus. I’ve been coming here since my oldest was a toddler, and the long-timers who are holding it down have more or less seen my youngest grow from a tiny spam-baby to a full tweeny monster. The older crew (the ones who have worked there longest) always remember us and always make us feel taken care of.
The food is fast and delicious and you’ll most likely have enough to take home or you can share a dish with a friend, as most dishes are generous portions. Our favorites are pho, any of the curries, Tom Kha, orange chicken, crab rangoons, and the vermicelli bowls. The salmon curry is also amazing.
They had a little bit of a makeover a year or so ago, but it didn’t take away from the overall charm of the old 888 vibe they had going.
Among the few servers we adore, Binh is our standout man. He’s kind, thoughtful, expedient and has the best sense of humor. He hustles his bum off and goes out of his way to make sure not just the tables are taken care of, but I always see him helping out with other servers on top of his own tables. If I ever worked with him in a demanding and fast paced environment, I’d be in really strong and upbeat company. Like Jose at Cheko’s, Binh has become a wonderful ATX fixture that deserves some love and praise. Mess with Binh and you mess with me and my kiddos! Put it this way, if I ever won the powerball jackpot, not a lot of people would know, but Binh would get a huge surprise from my little family.

I’m not sure why it took me so long to dine here. It is so good. They have a wide range of viet, Chinese, and Thai food. The food comes out quick. The service is direct. It’s a great spot for Asian food. The prices are great, and the portions are awesome!

I was really disappointed with the pho here. I live super close, and I was so excited to see people’s good reviews of this place that I basically walked to it. The noodles portion was little. The broth was just not giving anything. I had to dump a lot, A LOT of sauce into it to make it taste better. It honestly had no taste. The bean sprouts were not fresh. It looks so yummy in the picture, but I did not even finish the whole thing because the taste fell flat and not worth the price.

Awesomely delicious food! We went in to eat, we were greeted & placed our orders. The chicken was super delicious & the service was great. Plenty of parking when we went. Food is priced right,as travelers this is why we dropped by. Would love to go back but traffic in Austin sucks.

Came here with a group.
We all got different types of Phó and all loved ours!
The broths for all of them were very flavorful and satisfying. The noodle and meat portions were very generous.
It all came with a side of garnishes which was much appreciated. Definitely coming back here!

Very nice restaurant that opens till late night! We randomly walked in and were surprised by the good vibe and warm service. We order pho – which is really authentic – we are very picky about pho soup base. We also had chicken wings – good sweet sauce. Roast duck with four season sauce is also pretty good but portion is small. I also ordered papaya salad with shrimp- I was told it was grilled shrimp but it came out not grilled. Overall it’s a good place. I would recommend you to order pho.

This is my first time here I didn’t even know existed. It’s so so so so so good!!
We had the pork fried rice, which that was good,, the pho soup was good!
I think the next time I go, I will have to try other stuff just to get a fill for it…
The place was very busy had quite a bit of people so you know you’re getting good quality!!
The service was good because the waiters were just right there and always picking up stuff and bringing you what you needed!
So thank you
