Great service and food each time I come here, the steam dumplings are my favorite thing to order.

We recently visited Bep Saigon Asian Restaurant, and it was an outstanding experience! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and eager to help with recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious and very fresh. The authentic Vietnamese dishes were packed with flavor, beautifully prepared, and served in generous portions. The prices were also very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. This restaurant is perfect for a family dinner, a date night, or a gathering with friends. It's clear that the owners take great pride in both their food and customer service. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese cuisine and excellent service. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience! read more

noodle tour continues a change of pace. BBH instead of pho bun bo hue... i pretty much can pass for vietnamese when i order this. every single time, perfect pronunciation and they always think im viet. it was 15something with $2 tip, total was 18 cash. cheap lunch, they are generous with the beef slices here. normally, I always get a bunch of viet ham slices and meet ball slice in half at the milpitas place, this place gave you alot of beef slices. guess that's cheaper here in texas. was pretty good. had all the main components, pork blood, rice noodles, and good broth. kinda didn't like the big pigfeet. it had no meat just some hard chewy skin and all bone. better off without it and put in some slice meat balls or something else. just a space eater... anyways, good brunch for under 20 bucks, read more

Was up north for an event and in the mood for Asian cuisine, so decided to stop at Bep Saigon for dinner. They have an extensive menu with dishes made ​​from professional Vietnamese chefs with unique recipes. There was plenty of parking onsite and we were greeted quickly and seated upon arrival. The restaurant had a large crowd which is usually a good sign. The menu was so extensive it was hard to decide what to order. I ended up going with the Buddha's Delight with broccoli, carrots, water chestnuts, Napa cabbage & mushrooms stir fried in brown sauce. I ended up getting the beef for my protein. I didn't really like the flavor profile and the veggies were drowning in sauce. I had to drain some of the sauce off the plate because it was a bit over saturated. I added an egg roll and egg drop soup. The egg drop soup had a dark brown color and not the normal flavor profile, it was somewhat bitter. Someone in my party ordered the vermicelli bowl with beef. I had high expectations for this place, but the food just did not meet my expectations. read more

really good banh bot chien! could be crispier, but i love the addition of pickled radish and carrots the dip was also tangy and savory 10/10 pho dac biet was okay, the amount of noodles they give is insane - definitely 2 portions a tad sweeter than im accustomed to, otherwise is standard enough for a craving read more

First time at Bep Saigon and we loved it! Service was friendly and quick, and we were easily able to find multiple vegetarian options. The Vietnamese pancake appetizer was excellent- such an amazing mix of crispy and chewy texture, and we loved the pan fried flat noodles. Another great crispy/chewy texture combination. We are definitely adding Bep Saigon into our regular rotation! read more

This is a rather impressive restaurant serving up Vietnamese fare. They appear to be open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. It's located north of the AMC, directly on the north side of the P. Terry's. Parking is plentiful. Interestingly, this was the first time I had a stir-fried rice noodle that was slightly crunchy. Their Hủ Tiếu Áp Chảo has a crispy fried exterior and a soft and slightly chewy interior. Basically, they are rice noodles that are pressed together and then cut into flat squares. These are stir-fried with protein and veggies; they are quite delicious. Their beef luc lac Bò Lúc Lắc is also fantastic. The beef chunks are uniformly sized, cooked with onions, and served on top of a bed of lettuce and tomato slices. Served with a lemony black pepper sauce on the side. The Thịt Kho Tàu, or braised pork belly, came in a small caldron with chunks of braised pork belly, scallions, and fried eggs, with a savory brown sauce. Their soups are also pretty solid, though I think the aforementioned dishes pack more punch. I've also ordered their vermicelli bowls, pho, and spring rolls to go; they are decent enough. A weakness I would point out about this restaurant is their rice, which is served with the beef luc lac and the braised pork belly. It's the same feeling you might get as getting a fly in your soup or crunchy insects in your salad or cooked (but perhaps not well-cleaned) leafy greens. In this case, their steamed rice comes with way too many grains that have black spots. Sure, perhaps some insect larvae had a good time nomming on the rice kernels before being harvested, but I essentially always have to inspect every single grain for blemishes. By far, this restaurant serves rice with one of the highest densities of damaged grains, and it's no fun when you start mistrusting your food. This issue has occurred on multiple repeat visits, so I would encourage them to take their rice preparation more seriously, or at least use higher quality rice. In terms of payment, if you eat in, it's likely they may be short staffed a bit, so if you want to pay, venturing up front to pay is a good tactic. read more

I tried their Bún bò Huế, braised pork belly, and pan-fried flat noodles with seafood combo--and I really enjoyed all of them. The flavors are delicious and a bit different from the usual, which made the experience even more interesting. Bún bò Huế This dish comes with thick, rod-shaped rice noodles in a flavorful broth. The soup is rich and tasty, with a comforting depth. It includes a piece of pork hock that's pleasantly chewy--so if you like your pork hock fall-off-the-bone soft, this might not be the best fit. There's also one piece of blood cake that's very soft and has a clean flavor--nothing too intense. If you're not into blood cake, just let your server know or skip this dish. It's served with a side of Thai basil, bean sprouts, and a small cup of sauce. I think the sauce might be made with tiny fried fish, maybe shrimp, and a bit of sugar. It's sweet, savory, and full of umami. I added it to the broth after finishing the noodles, and honestly, it made the soup even better. Pan-Fried Flat Noodles with Seafood Combo I love this dish! The flat noodles are made from rice and seem to be either steamed or boiled first, then a couple of layers of flat noodles were added to the pan, pan-fried (not stir-fried) like a pancake, and finally cut into large, wide pieces. The outside is golden brown and crisp, while the inside stays soft and chewy--such a satisfying contrast. The seafood combo includes shrimp, squid, scallops, carrots, and broccoli. The seafood is tender and juicy, and the vegetables are still crunchy--so if you prefer softer veggies, just be aware of that. Personally, I like the texture contrast, and it shows that the chef has strong wok skills. Braised Pork Belly This dish is full of flavor. Braised meat is usually cooked with soy sauce, so it may contain gluten. The pork belly is soft and melt-in-your-mouth rich, with a good balance of fat and meat. It's served with two "tiger skin" eggs--what my family calls eggs that are hard-boiled, peeled, and deep-fried to create a golden, textured surface. A familiar and comforting touch. The dish comes with steamed rice, and if you're not into fatty meats, there's also a braised fish option. Overall Experience I'd personally give the food a 4.5, but since there's no option for half-stars, I rounded up to 5. The service was friendly, the wait time was reasonable, and parking was easy. Most dishes come with steamed rice, different styles of rice noodles, or vermicelli. If you're looking to avoid gluten, this is a great place to check out. read more

My family and I came here for lunch, and we were happy overall with our meal. Staff were very attentive and food was tasty. Restaurant is clean and easy to find parking. I felt like the food was authentic to Vietnam and prepared well. Portion sizes are on the smaller size for entrees (we did family style) and food took a while to come to the table. We ordered the bo luc lac (shaken steak) and a Vietnamese fish soup. All were good but I've had better at other places. Side note: requesting and incentivizing customers to give perfect ratings is misleading. This place has several signs inside where they will offer a free item or discount if you show a perfect review. read more

After a store run, we were hungry and came across Bep Saigon. And the food was really good! Everything we ordered from the calamari to pho and the flat noodle really delivered through flavor. The service was pretty fast considering it was packed when we came. I'd say the food was worth the wait. read more

I came into the restaurant and ordered the Buddha delight with chicken. It was a lunch special so it came with a hot and sour soup, egg roll, and I upgraded to fried rice. Would've been a great deal had the food been better. No chopsticks were given. I understand the quality of to go orders will always go down some. But the order came out fresh and I took a bite immediately in the car. The chicken was dry and rubbery. The "fried" rice was regular steamed rice cooked in stock. Not crispy at all and completely lacking flavor. Uncle Roger would've died eating it just so he could roll over in his grave at how bad it was. Hot and sour soup and egg roll were ok but nothing special. I really wanted to like this place and the reviews had been good. One of the workers at the restaurant was kind and considerate and offered me a place to sit away from the front door because it was cold and breezy. Maybe the Vietnamese food is better? read more

No matter how many Vietnamese spots open in Austin, I still remember being one of the first customers at Bếp Saigon and it's a place that's consistently solid over the years. On weekdays, it's my go-to for quick, flavorful lunches. On evenings and weekends, I like bringing friends or family to enjoy their more traditional, shareable Vietnamese dishes like Bánh Xèo (crispy Vietnamese crepe), Canh Chua (hot and sour soup) or Cá Kho (braised caramelized fish in clay pot). Here are some of my favorite dishes I've tried over time: Gỏi Sứa / Jellyfish salad with herbs and shredded veggies ($18) Bánh Xèo / Vietnamese crispy crepe($18) Bánh Khọt / Mini crispy coconut pancakes Bò Lúc Lắc / Shaking beef Hủ Tiếu Áp Chảo / Crispy pan-fried flat rice noodles (always extra crispy!) Tôm Rang Muối / Jumbo Salt & Pepper Shrimp ($17) Bánh Bột Chiên / Fried rice flour cake with egg Heo Xào Lá Quế Thái / Thai Basil Pork Bún Bò Huế / Spicy beef noodle soup Canh Chua / Tamarind-based sour soup with veggies and pineapple hot pot style Cá Kho Tộ / Braised fish in clay pot Bonus tip: their catering is excellent. Their portions are plentiful, well-packed, and they'll make solid recommendations if you're not sure what to order. Super helpful for parties or company gatherings. read more

Definitely an upgrade from what it used to be! Under new management about a year ago, they did some lux renovations and changed out the menu. On this Friday evening when I was so hungry, I was welcomed by the new owner. Who suggested the fish fillet, which was their special of the day. They even have the whole fish option too. I must say that the food options and flavors were fantastic! It completely changed my view compared to what was in the past. I was craving for their rice, cake omelette/ banh bot chien. And the flavors, the texture were way better than expected and compared to other places! A must order. My Vietnamese family loved all the other entrees as well. The crispy fried egg noodles with seafood (was not seafood, more like a combo) (the presentation was a bit off. But the crispiness and flavors were definitely a ticket to come back. The fish fillet was plump, moist and went well with the sweet & sour sauce and white rice. The panfried rice noodles with combination meats were well enjoyed. And the Chinese tangy orange chicken that came with a cup of wonton soup, was inhaled. Bravo, Bep Saigon! I'm impressed with your flavors and will definitely be back to try some more. read more

The food was okay but overall kind of hit or miss. The bun rieu had nice flavor but was way a bit salty, and the banh bot chien was just decent, different from what I'd imagined. My Thai iced tea and coffee didn't come out until the end of the meal, though they did comp the drinks, which I appreciated. Service was friendly, but the restaurant could definitely be a bit cleaner. Not a terrible experience, just not great either. read more

I would recommend checking this place out. Overall, this is a great spot to stop by for Vietnamese food. They also serve a good amount of Chinese dishes. Food: I ordered the Salt and Pepper Calamari and the Bun Bo Hue. Each dish had great flavors. I'm looking forward to coming back to try other items on their menu. Service: the staff was friendly and attentive. They checked on me throughout my meal and made sure I was taken care of. Ambiance: It's a nice family-owned business. The restaurant was clean and had a good, homey feel. read more

Had a great experience here! Lots of Vietnamese and Chinese dishes available, including lunch specials. I got the pork belly which was delicious! It even came with 2 eggs. Our other order was the pork vermicelli, which was a huge portion! I think the portions for the price are very good. They even gave me extra rice when I packed my leftovers to-go.

Amazing hidden gem! First off, let me say that my girlfriend is Vietnamese and I regularly eat Vietnamese food on a weekly basis (so this review hopefully carries more weight). They have delicious staples such as banh xeo, bo luc lac and our favorite bun bo hue. When we lived in the area, we came every 2 weeks. Everything is reasonably priced as well. We've had friends and family visit and they also really enjoyed the canh chua. Their bun bo hue is some of the best we've had and we've been to popular Vietnamese hubs like San Jose & Houston just to eat. Staff is very friendly and the guy server cracks jokes from time to time. I strongly recommend Bep Saigon. read more

Located in/conveniently off of I35, Bep Saigon has been holding it down in this nondescript, aging shopping center for years. They survive on the strength of their food, yes, but also their amazing staff, which seem like family, even if they aren't. I asked what they would recommend for vegan dishes on the menu, and without missing a beat, the server said they could make anything vegan except for the soups, confirming that fish sauce was out. You can get all your favorite Chinese-American takeout dishes like General Tso's and Kung Pao, but I was more drawn to the Vietnamese specialties. Hu Tieu Ap Chao with tofu had that key wok-charred flavor infused into the chewy noodle cakes and plenty of fresh veggies. Likewise, the Banh Xeo is a winner, super crispy on the outside and somehow buttery, but not overtly greasy. Good food, good vibes, good choice all around. read more

The service was really good and they even have a button to press like a "raffle" to get a free meal! Not a big fan of the pho I got though.. the broth was less than flavorful and the noods a bit hard. But that's alright! I'm pretty bougie with my pho. I'll give it a 3/5 I'll come back for different items on the menu read more

Went for dinner a few days ago and had a good experience! We got the chicken vermicelli bowl, the chicken was really good, I thought the sauce that it came with was a little on the sweeter side. The braised fish had really good flavor! It had a lot of fish bones so had to be really careful while eating it but thought it was good too. Overall both entrees were on the sweeter side and we definitely used the chilli oil/sriracha a lot. The Thai tea was standard, however the coconut juice was super refreshing with fresh pieces of coconut fruit in the glass. The service was quick, friendly staff. Overall the ambiance is also nice. Cute place, will return again! read more

Went here because I saw the recs from Facebook. Between 4 of us we shared: - Banh khot - Canh chua (small) - Pork belly clay pot - Fried noodle special Banh khot was good, but felt like the portions were small. It looked like it was made in a takoyaki pan and then cut in half since there were "blank" baby pieces. For the price I expected more. The soup portion was much bigger than we expected for the size we ordered, so this felt like a generous serving. The fried noodle was pretty good! I enjoyed the texture of the noodle. We got the combo but I was a bit sad that tofu wasn't included. Pork belly clay pot was really small too. The fried boiled egg was interesting but I don't think it was worth the price. Overall they have some good more unique options in Austin but you pay for it! read more

Ordered the Bun Thit Cha Gin (Vermicili bowl with Pork and egg rolls) and it was a sizable portion. Easily two or three meals and very generous. The pork was well seasoned and not too fatty. Also they are very generous with the egg rolls in this dish. Most other Vietnamese restaurants only give two egg rolls - this had a whole layer of bite sized egg roll pieces. This place is popular being so close to all the office parks in Tech Ridge and there are many reputable local food bloggers that rank this up in their lists. Can't wait to try their other dishes to get a better gauge where they compare with other classics in Austin. read more

Is an amazing place, my wife is obsessed with it, I highly recommend it. Great Asian food read more

Tasty. My word for this place. I tried it another time before but didn't write a review yet and I heard so many great things about it so I had to try then. I also know my friend's mom works here too so I intend to visit. So that first time I was glad to have tried. The 3 dishes she recommended were the ap chao, bun bo hue and shaking beef so I knew I had to get those at least. And sure enough I loved the ap chao then and the shaking beef was so darn tasty! Both so good! The bun bo hue was good too but it was just too rich and sweet for me BUT it's supposed to be that way. So do get it if you like that dish. Ok 2nd time I came here we came because my elderly mom wanted pho and most pho places close so early on weekdays but this place didn't so I chose it for a family dinner that night. My mom enjoyed her pho and even took some home. 1 thing I like about this place is that they give so much! It's really shareable and you will have leftovers. I had to get the ap chao and shaking beef again and sure enough it didn't disappoint. The beef was better this time meanwhile the ap chao was better the first time for lunch. Not sure why. My husband loves Vietnamese pancakes and when we saw how big it was at the table next to us we had to get it. He loved it! My boys got the pad Thai lol not sure why even the waiter was like get something else ha but they did enjoy it. My girl got this stir fry noodle dish and she really liked it too. So all in all it was all very tasty. The place is nice and spacious and clean too. It's so near our schools and house. It's a good find. It's just in a peculiar shopping area and easy to miss but everything we've ordered has been tasty. They have an extensive menu too and oh it's priced a bit higher than other places near $20s on some dishes but again their plates are huge. Well worth! Enjoy! read more

Quick service, we sat down and ordered quickly. Our food came out pretty quick. The Bo luc lac was the best I've had in Austin! Such great flavor. It was pricy but well worth it. The bun rieu was good but it was missing the rieu. There was only one piece of rieu which wasn't enough for a dish called bun rieu. It's less shrimpy flavor than what I like but it was still good. They give a lot of noodles though so it was definitely filling. Will for sure be back to try the bun Bo hue! read more

My friend wanted to take me out for Asian food and asked where I wanted to go. I found this restaurant with the help of Google. She is a vegetarian and finds it frequently difficult to find an Asian restaurant that can accommodate her. When I told her the name and she researched it, she said, "why haven't I ever heard of this place?" Of course she had to call them with a few questions plus many more when we arrived. The server was very patient and answered all of her questions. I started with the hot and sour soup (brimming with goodness) and she ordered Tofu Spring Rolls. The tofu is fried to make it more solid in the wrapper packed with lettuce and rice noodles to dip in a peanut sauce. It was pretty tasty! Forgot to take a photo I had the Hu Tieu Xao Mem - stir fried flat rice noodles with chicken. She ordered the Happy Family with Tofu - Spicy style. Both orders were very large (I could only eat half). It had a great amount of chicken and vegetables in a brown sauce. I had to add some soy and hoisin sauce plus chili oil but it was more than I could have imagined. The tofu dish was great well. The server suggested that she have the Happy Family combo meal with an egg roll and hot and sour soup which was about the same price. We will definitely be back to try more dishes. Nice plus - we were able to bring our own bottle of wine. read more

Solid Asian spot near Parmer and 35. Nice decor, great open kitchen feel. Friendly and expedient service. Food is good, nothing stellar. Prices are a little high for what you get, I was charged slightly higher than what the menu pricing showed for two different dishes. Also, no real lunch menu options that were of significant savings. If this was closer near downtown I would possibly visit again, just not good enough to make the 20+ minute drive over to is all. Tasty Bún bò Huế - filling amount of ingredients, slightly too oily IMO. read more
