This is my favorite takeout pho place! I've ordered from here multiple times…read more I would always order the summer roll, spring rolls, and sliced brisket pho. The summer roll has the right amount of spring and always lots of noodles and lettuce. The spring rolls always arrive still hot and still so crispy and good. The pho will come separately, a container of the soup and then another container of everything else. The soup would always still be hot! I always pour the soap into a bigger bowl that I have and then put everything else in. It never disappoints!

You know when a place has a limited menu they take care of all their foods. We ordered a pork bahn mi and a chicken bahn mi. An order of pirk dumplings and 2 drinks. The lychee drink and the taro milk drink with boba. The taro drink was creamy and light when drinking. The lychee drink was like a lychee flavor soda but so refreshing. Definitely get the lychee if you are unsure as that is what the worker recommended when i asked. The dumplings were small but yummy with their homemade sauce. I wish they were bigger but no other complaints. The bahn mi's were delicious i got the prok and the flavoring were juicy with their homemade sauce pickled carrots and cucumbers slices balancing it out. The bread was so crispy i throughly enjoyed. I will stop by again another time for the delicious Pho smell that was at the restaurant.

They also have really good sparkling Viet drinks and viet coffee! Service here is nice. We got their salad rolls, mi quang, and bo kho with their salted lemonade and coconut cream viet coffee. Everything was great. The mi quang was a huge portion with tons of pork, quail eggs, and shrimp. Meanwhile the bo kho had super tender beef and was very fragrant. Loved my Viet coffee and the salted lemonade was so refreshing. Great spot for some casual Vietnamese food in Brooklyn!

The baguette was perfectly crisp on the outside while staying light enough to bite through. Every ingredient tasted incredibly fresh and flavorful, the fillings were generous, and the pate added so much rich, savory flavor. I also loved that they chop up the cilantro, so you're not spending a whole minute trying to chew through the stems. Everything was packed together so well that the sandwich held its shape from the first bite to the last without falling apart. The inside feels like a classic Asian bakery, with shelves lined with snacks and baked goods to-go. This is the kind of bánh mì that reminds you why it's such a classic: simple and balanced perfectly. Definitely a spot I'll come back to.

I really thought I had reviewed Ba Xuyen before. I first ate here pre-pandy and it never occurred…read moreto me that I hadn't chimed in about this awesome spot. Well, let's clear that up now. The aunties are mentioned often in other reviews, and that's because they're amazing. They'll gladly explain what you need, especially when it comes to the super tasty (and extremely inexpensive) deserts that populate racks and the drink fridges here. Some are sweet, some are sour (the deserts, that is), they'll let you know. Honesty since a cake here is $5, you can afford to try everything! How on to the main reason that you came, the Banh Mi. You literally can't go wrong with any of the eight main sandwiches here. I've tried them all so you don't have to, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't. The bread is crispy, the ingredients are super fresh, and the tastes combine perfectly. The decor is perfect for this kind of spot. No frills. There are three tables and a bunch of chairs. It's exactly what I want in a takeout type place. They concentrate on the food. So, to wrap this one up. Go. I'd say that I'll be back, but I've been coming here for years. If you haven't, it's time to start.

My favorite dish was Pho Ga (Chicken Noodle Soup), which was delicious, also gluten free, dairy free and soy free. Others had something else I had no interest in to remember the name.

ATMOSPHERE: The space feels modern-cozy, not touristy. White marble tables, teal booths, pendant lighting, and a backlit bar make it bright for lunch and glowy for dinner. It's built for lingering -- solo noodle missions, date night, or a post-Brooklyn Bridge walk catch-up. Locals treat it like their neighborhood living room. SERVICE: Family-owned by Dumbo native Patrick Lin, and the team leans into that hospitality. Servers know the menu cold, especially the gluten-free labeling and the QR visual menu you can scan for allergen transparency. Big love to the staff who check in without hovering -- they walk you through spice levels and broth styles like regulars. FOOD: Comfort food done with precision.

We were recommended to come to Di An Di by a cousin to try their northern style pho. Luckily it was…read morealso on the Chase Sapphire dining program. We ordered the Cha Goi (Crispy Spring Rolls ($18), Pho Thin Ha Noi (Beef Pho $25), and Pho Ga (Chicken Pho). I was impressed by the meats for both phos, as they were tender. The beef had a good wok sear, while the white meat chicken surprisingly retained good moisture. Compared to Southern style pho, Northern is more clear, light broth and wider noodles. The beef pho had more flavor. You could add hot and sweet sauce to your liking as well. We have a go to place for northern pho, but Di An Di is fine. Just a little pricey. The spring rolls were delicious though. Would recommend. Would be interested to try their banh mi next time. If you are a first timer, they do give option for pho and banh mi set (which is a smaller pho bowl and half a bahn mi). The interior is spacious, but cozy. Modern with a sprinkle of traditional Vietnamese designs and plants. The staff was attentive and there was a unisex bathroom.

While the noodles came quick, the sandwich took about 20 minutes AFTER the noodles came. The sandwich was for my 4 year old since she's not the biggest fan of noodles. She was hungry and quite upset for the whole duration. The staff did come and informed us multiple times it was coming. But it took a total of 20 minutes for it finally come. The manager said it was a communication issue between the servers and the kitchen staff since we did request for the toppings to be on the side. They did apologize multiple times and did not charge us for that sandwich that took forever to come. If it weren't for that incident, definitely a solid 4 stars. Would I come back? I would, the food was good and hopefully they'll get everything correct next time.

The inside of the restaurant was on theme with all the lemons and I loved it! It brings a great pop of color. For drinks, we tried the Yuzu Margarita and the Piña Colada Mocktail. The Yuzu Margarita had a refreshing citrusy flavor, while the mocktail was creamy, tropical, and perfect if you're looking for a non-alcoholic option. To start, we ordered the Tofu Bao Bun and Calamari. The bao bun was soft and fluffy with well-seasoned tofu, and the calamari was crispy without feeling too heavy. For our mains, we had the Spaghetti Kee Mao and the Fresh Basil Fried Rice with tofu (no egg). The Kee Mao was packed with bold Thai flavors and had just the right amount of spice. The basil fried rice was fragrant, satisfying, and made exactly as requested, making it a great vegetarian option. We wrapped up the meal with the Mango Sticky Rice, which was the perfect ending. The mango was sweet and ripe, and the sticky rice was rich and creamy with just the right amount of coconut flavor. Overall, we had a wonderful dining experience with delicious food, refreshing drinks, and attentive service. We'd definitely come back to try more of the menu!

I got the spring roll and grilled pork with rice vermicelli, a nice cold dish for a hot day. We also got the grilled beef banh mi, which I wasn't really a fan of.

We also tried the coconut cream coffee, which was coffee slush with coconut cream on top, and that was good. I felt like the service wasn't great. When we came in, I had to get the attention of the lady in the front just to be seated, and that took a while. It was the same when we wanted to order and later when we needed the bill.
