Reviews
From the fragrant pho to the rice dishes and desserts, we loved every bite. While the pho portions may have gotten slightly smaller over the years, the quality remains high. It is fresh, delicious, and offered at a very good price. A must visit for any food lover in CNY!
Inside, the décor is an eclectic fusion of Buddhist posters, faux flowers, statues, and decades-old furniture, giving the space a vibe somewhere between a spiritual retreat and an Asian family banquet hall that’s seen better days. The building is cavernous—much too big for the sparse crowd when we visited—which only adds to its mysterious charm. A hand-written sign reminds you: “We are not a fast food restaurant. Please be patient.” And trust me, it’s worth the wait.
We ordered:
#33. Bún Đặc Biệt – Special Combo Vermicelli ($17.95)
A hefty, colorful bowl topped with grilled shrimp, egg roll, shredded pork, pork meatballs, and beef—every component was perfectly seasoned and charred. The fresh herbs and pickled vegetables underneath offered brightness and crunch, balanced by the fish sauce on the side.
#10. Phở Đặc Biệt – Special Combo Pho
A deeply aromatic broth, subtly sweet and clear, swimming with rare steak, brisket, tendon, tripe, and beef balls. This is the kind of pho that doesn’t need condiments—it’s confident on its own. Clean, soulful, and expertly balanced.
#111. Sinh Tố Sầu Riêng – Durian Shake ($5.95)
Thick, creamy, unapologetically durian. Sweet and pungent, a must for lovers of the King of Fruits.
Chè Khoai Môn Bạch Quả – Sweet Rice with Taro & Gingko in Coconut Cream ($5.95)
This dessert is comfort in a bowl. Warm, sticky rice bathed in rich coconut milk, with chunks of soft taro and subtle gingko. Not too sweet—just right.
The menu is expansive and mostly in Vietnamese—an encouraging sign of authenticity. Prices are modest considering the quality and portion sizes. Service is patient and kind, like you’re visiting someone’s auntie who cooks better than anyone in the family.
Verdict:
New Century is a true hidden gem—more spiritual temple than trendy eatery. The space may be aging, but the food is honest, generous, and masterfully made. Come for the pho, stay for the durian shake, and leave with your stomach full and your spirit strangely soothed.
