I always recommend to anyone going through Richmond that they stop here! I was able to grab lunch there today and as usual had a great experience. We got an appetizer sampler – the fried dumplings were great but weren’t super excited by the spring rolls. I got the beef with mixed vegetables and it was delicious! The beef with garlic sauce was also tasty. Of course we had to have some beer as well. They were out of their Answer beer so I tried a different stout and we also tried an IPA. As usual great beer selection. This was the first time I sat in the main dining room and I enjoyed it. Nice atmosphere with the bar behind you. There are other rooms that are more quite and private as well.

Another one of my favorite establishments on earth, such a unique gem. Happens to be adjacent to The Answer (same owner). Expansive menu of authentic Vietnamese food that is prepared with fresh ingredients and served in appropriate / large portions (for entrees). World class craft beer selection that is constantly changing.

This is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in RVA. I’ve been coming here regularly for 12 years. The food is always consistently fantastic. I have yet to order something I did not like. I Love trying the different beers they have on tap. It can get quite busy even on weekdays so service can be slow at times but it is well worth the wait in my opinion. Restaurant can use some updating but I like that they have lots of seating and can accommodate large groups. We have Never had to wait to be seated. Lots of taps And a well stocked bar. If you have not been to this restaurant you need to try it at least once and you won’t regret it.

Walked in on a weekend afternoon and it was very empty so we didn’t have to wait. Overall, the food was slightly disappointing. I ordered veggie dumplings as an appetizer and seafood pho as my entree. The dumplings were extremely starchy and had very little actual vegetables. As for the pho, it was fairly average – the seafood wasn’t very fresh and didn’t taste that good.

Good food and service here. Can’t really complain. I didn’t think the food was stand out good though. I had the pho it was just okay. If I were to return I would get something else.

17yrs ago took my wife here for our first date. Have always loved the food here. Not sure if I’ve just hit a few fluke items here last few visits, but some of the things seems to be not as good. My last visit they were out of each appetizers I tried to order. Got a couple of Shrimp/Pork rolls, but honestly the pork was a little… umm guess gamey is the best word. Pho was really good though. Also got there Vietnamese crepes and it was really good. Staff is always friendly and fast moving. It can get pretty busy especially since it’s one of the best beer places you can find. They have a massive selection to choose from. There are 4 seating areas and a good sized bar. There has been a pretty good crowd lately watching the World Cup. Its a staple of Richmond and easy to get to being right on Broad Street. Limited parking up front, but ample parking in the back.

New to RVA, but not new to Vietnamese food. Went here on a recommendation and won’t be back. This place may have been a hot spot and highly rated 20 years ago, but the owners seem to have not reinvested in their business. The service here was atrocious. It took 15 minutes to be greeted at our table, and we weren’t checked on once after receiving our food. The runners slammed down our food in such an aggressive manner that the utensils went sliding across the table, and they said absolutely nothing. The employees seemed discombobulated and were not friendly. The calamari was exceptionally salty and lacking flavor. The pho was underwhelming. The super bowl portion was mostly broth with a small portion of meat. The walls were dirty and grungy. The beer menu was a wet, crispy piece of paper. The ambience reminded me of a dive college bar with sticky tables. I didn’t read any reviews prior to coming, but after some reading, I now see that plenty of people have expressed the same concerns over the years, yet nothing has changed. It seems the owners haven’t addressed these issues and don’t care about their patrons’ experience. Shame.

I was craving Pho for a few days and ventured out from my usual in Cary town. The regular chicken pho portion was just right for my hunger. The service was quick. This place is next to The Answer Brewery so they have a beer for everyone’s liking. I would visit this place for Pho and beer again. Delicious!

Stumbled into this place during my visit to Richmond and it didn’t disappoint. Ended up visiting here twice during my stay. Had both Hu Tieu Dac Biet and Canh Chua Ca, both tasted pretty good. I think the food was pretty close to what i know of Vietnamese food in SoCal and Southeast Asia. I would definitely go back next time I’m in the area again. As a bonus, this place is also a bar and serves a decent selection of beers.

The restaurant was cold and lacked decor. The waiters were nice but laid back and forgot to give us our check.
