New great Asian fusion spot in Hutto! As an Asian foodie who hails from New York City, I am ALWAYS on the lookout for great new Asian eateries, and I'm super happy Chopsticks is one of them! First, a technical suggestion: DO NOT order online anywhere except direct from their website. I used DoorDash and the order was canceled. There is some sort of snafu with syncing restaurant hours and availability of processing orders. The owner was nice enough to even call me and apologize for the mixup! Above and beyond with customer service in my book. DoorDash refunded me and it was all good. The food looked so good in the pictures, that even though my first attempt at ordering delivery failed, I STILL ordered from them and it did NOT disappoint. A treatment to the quality of this place! Here's what I ordered: 1 Blast: Dynamite Shrimp $10.00 NO SAUCE A piece of advice - get the sauce with the shrimp! It was so flavorful that I could tell it would have been amazing had ai gotten the sauce. So, do yourself a favor and get that sauce! I have a slight dairy allergy so figured I didn't want to risk it. But now I regret not getting it anyways Shrimp was also just right. Cooked well, tasted fresh, right blend of soft but firm meat and flavorful too. Even the veggies that came with them were fresh and tasted good! 1 Flavor Explosion: Beef Bulgogi Bao $9.00 NO Onions NO Cilantro DELICIOUS! You can tell they make their own bao buns! Yessss. Hear hear for fresh baked goods! Definitely not frozen. Fluffy, spongy, hot, not hard nor rubbery, just right in texture and fluffiness. When you bite down, it's got a sweet taste and the bun even melts a little bit in your mouth Meat was just right as well, delicious flavor, fresh, not overcooked, could tell it was made to order, and again, wasn't drenched in too much sauce. I appreciated the balance of everything in the bao. 1 Savor the Fusion: Beef Mango $17.00 AMAZING! Spicy, tangy, sweet, tender, fresh, and flavorful. Beef was not too stringy nor chewy but just right in temperature and softness to chew. Mango strips were the right size proportionatel stupid thing added a really nice balance to the heavier, meaty flavor. Added vegetables and sauce were just the right amount. I've tasted PLENTY of place who think drenching this dish in probably sauce equals tasty ‍This is a mistake! They do not do this here. 1 SIDE of Egg Noodles $2.00 Perfect side egg noodles for my kids to eat! You can get these non-spicy for your kids to enjoy and add your own meat or garnish to them at home if you just want deliciously made noodles as a base to build on. It was all gone before I could even finish my meal! 1 Lemongrass Peach Tea $6.00 Delicious drink! Made me feel like I was in Thailand! Right mix of citrusy and sweet, neither flavor overpowering the other. Good portion of ice and great flavor to the tea. All in all, A+! Thanks for putting out great food Chopsticks! Will be sure to come by again very, very soon! read more

My comfort food Hu Tieu Go is served here. I love it. Today I added dumpling and it was so good. Wife has her usual Spicy Dry Noodle. Their Bao is also so good and tasty a must try option Beef and Pork if you there. Service is always fast! Very clean and unique place so chill! read more

Incredibly delicious lovingly crafted Vietnamese food served with a smile. My Son and I were craving Bahn Mi but we looked up Vietnamese near me and found this wonderful Gem. It was a rainy day so I chose the Vietnamese Noodle soup, not Pho but Hu Tiu Go. Comes with either rice or egg noodles and thinly sliced pork Sausage green onions, beansprouts and little cubes of pork skin/fat. It was heavenly, delicious, perfectly balanced and very satisfying. My Son had the BBQ Pork ribs with Friend Brussels sprouts (these are so great - and on the level of Madam Ma's Thai appetizer in Austin) perfectly seasoned, not greasy and just the right mount of fried crunch and tangy sweet sauce. The ribs were sweet and succulent, and so perfectly cooked he was able to removed all the meat from the bones with his chopsticks. Also ordered the Vietnamese Iced Coffee and the Lemongrass Black tea. The iced coffee was strong and velvety smooth just the way he loves it. The Lemongrass tea was unexpected - similar to the fruity boba tea drinks I've had but without the boba and just as tasty. It came out very quick and the portion size was perfect for us. It is a modern cafe style inside and very worth your time. EXCELLENT FOOD!!! and so reasonably priced that we are looking forward to coming back and enjoying this tasty quality Vietnamese food made from the heart, crafted with love. Small restaurants like this are my favorite as you are treated to finely crafted dishes that no big restaurant could ever come close to the levels of quality, flavor, price or just the sheer joy of sharing their very best. We're Hooked! Fans Forever. Its not Bahn Mi, its BETTER!!! read more

I order from here very often and my go to is the spare ribs and corn! I got it for everyone when my family came to visit and of everything they tried that week this was their favorite! A bit on the pricier side though. read more

Tried this place after discovering that my favorite thai place was closed and I'm so happy I did! Yummy food -the spare ribs are especially great. And the mango beef is also good, but I was expecting it to be spicy based on the reviews I read. It's actually not spicy at all. Loved that it was packed with veggies and mangos, but wish there was more beef. The lemongrass sweet tea is to die for! Must try. Some of the best tea I've ever tried. read more

Excellent, fresh and thoughtfully prepared food. Beef Mango had great flavor. Meat and vegetables were cooked perfectly. Fluffy rice paired well with it. Quite expensive but would return. read more

This is a must go to restaurant!! You won't be disappointed!! Thank you Chopsticks. David Rodriguez read more

And that's how we roll Highlights: *House Made Sauce *Steak Spring Rolls *Refreshing Drinks **Collaboration** Review: This spot was so good and unique that we had to come back. We tried the Ice Tamarind juice that was topped with salty peanuts. The drink was tart from the tamarind, sweet with hints of saltiness from the peanuts and very refreshing. Then we had the opportunity to try one of their weekly specials which was making your own steak spring rolls (Bò Né Cuôn Bánh Tráng). Presentation itself was amazing, then adding the fun factor of building/making your own spring roll was amusing but the combination of delicious flavors was what stood out the most. The steak was so tender, noodles had the perfect texture, veggies added freshness and the house made sauce was truly the highlight which elevated the dish. Can't wait to come back and try all their other menu items. Rating: 10/10 Bò Né Cuôn Bánh Tráng- Fatty and tasty flank steak sautéed in Tuòng An margarine / comes with rice papers, veggies, herbs, noodles, and mám nêm sauce! Iced Tamarind Juice read more

Our overall experience was quite enjoyable and the food we purchased was very good. Service great and the atmosphere was busy and enjoyable. Outside dining area exposes you to late afternoon sun, but pleasant when breezy with overcast clouds . Sorry couldn't remember the dishes we had, but steady stream of people entering and leaving with food must be considered . read more

Great Vietnamese food truck, a wee bit out of the way for me. I always appreciate a food truck location with ample parking! I am less likely to go try a food truck without designated parking. I came specifically to try the nem nuong, grilled pork rolls. I love all things spring rolls related. I got it to go. A good portion for 2 people or 1 super hungry person like I normally am. The nem nuong itself was good, good seasoning. I ate half as spring rolls and half as bun nem nuong (like vermicelli bowl). Came with fried egg roll skin and mango strips. The mango was a different twist for me, added some freshness to the rolls. For now, nem nuong is available on Mondays and Wednesdays. Check their IG for menu changes and specials. read more

Tried over the weekend and we were super happy. The ribs were amazing, they were so tender and the sauce chef kiss. The mango and beef was a little too spicy for me, but it had a great flavor and texture. We also enjoyed the pork buns. My only suggestion would be adding bulgogi as an entree. I really wanted to try it, but didn't want fries. Can't wait to order again. read more

I was pretty excited to go here! And it did not disappoint! But I just got a new Puppy and can't leave her at home just yet, so I called to see if they have seats outside, and they do! A couple of wooden benches on the side of the building. But I did have to leave her in the car for a second just to order, because they do not have menu pamphlets as of yet. So I do think that would be a good thing for the future. That and a menu with the differences in take away items, as the Pull off Bao, and Bunny Pudding cannot be bought for take out. That being said the service was amazing! And so was the food. The first time there, I got The pull off Bao, and the bunny pudding there. With Wings and Hu Tieu Go, to go. It was sooo good, and the bone literally just fell out.... Was yummy. The bunny pudding was so great! Cute and wonderful and , hell, I'll come just to order this! Oh and I got some tea! I can't recall it, think it was like a peach lemongrass tea, could be wrong, but it was good! (A little weird because it came with a spoon, and I kept getting the lemon grass in my mouth instead of the peach... but still good) Later at home the Hu Tieu Go was still so hot! And was very good... The flavor was unexpected... it was like a mix of pho flavors and peanut flavor to me.. was interesting and quite good. Like wise the wings were unexpected, I fully did not expect the wing to be on the wings. Just different than expected. But beware, these will sneak up on you, hahaha. Pretty dam spicy! Haha. Good but not great, but then again I am a bit of a wing snob. A couple weeks later I ordered for take away, and they had 2 separate take away Boas... Bulgogi and Pork Belly. We ordered both. And I think after having the Rib boa, We preferred these over that, and by far the Pork belly boa was on the leaderboard for us. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu. Fully Recommend this place. And I took a photo of the menu. read more

So happy to see they have opened their first brick and mortar as we used to frequent the food truck. We have tried a lot of the items on the menu and our favorites have been the mi thieu, the spare ribs, the corn and the beef mango. I love the broth in the soup, it has such a strong umami flavor. The sweet pork ribs are also super tender and fall off the bone, with a sweet sticky glaze. The corn appetizer is very flavorful with a subtle fish sauce flavor and a crunchy texture with the crispy pieces in it. One of the best things about the menu is the drink menu. The peach lemongrass is so light, refreshing, and addicting!! The lychee is also delicious and the coconut water is fresh. Our only complaint is that the prices are a little high, $17 for the sweet pork bowl and you have to pay extra if you want rice. read more

A tasty update (August 07, 2024). Like: cheddar fries, firecracker shrimp bowl, hu tieu noodle bowl. Dislike: tender pork delight bowl, banh canh, signature wings (meh). I tried most of their entrees and appetizers. I like the hu tieu noodle bowl the most and I wouldn't mind paying more for a large or extra large portion. Too bad there's very limited soupy entree options. The omission of pho noodle is a strategic move as Austin has quite a few good pho places such as Pho Phong Luu, 1618, 888 Pan Asian Restaurant, Broth & Basil, etc as pho cooking is a labor and time consuming process. The firecracker shrimp bowl is good but the spring mix salad was too little and merely there to fluff the volume without contributing much to fullness. The new style of bowl they use is to make the food appear more than what it really is. I would steer clear of the banh canh because one time I ordered it was very smelly probably because it wasn't a hot selling item and defrosted rather than cooked the same day. The tender pork delight bowl was tender and juicy but too heavy on the sweet which ruined its enjoyment. The cheddar fries is a safe choice for any age. The bunny pudding dessert could be improved by using a more flavorful jelly jam and thoroughly stirring it before serving to customers. Overall I don't think the $17 priced entrees are worth its charge given the small portion size and lack of side dish. For $17 I could get a nice bento box at Miso Restaurant. In the summer it can get very hot inside the restaurant so best to time your visit or order takeout. Fusion is a safe choice for Americans to try asian cuisine with a sense of familiarity and can serve as a stepping stone for more traditional dishes down the road. read more

I had the ribs, with rice and Brussels sprouts. The ribs were so flavorful and so were the Brussels sprouts. I loved the Brussels sprouts so much, they were crispy, sweet, and so flavorful. I definitely recommended getting them. The service was also kind and fast. Definitely recommend it. 10/10 read more

Great food and the best service! So friendly! My family will definitely come back! We had the wonton soup fries and sandwiches.

You gotta give Chopsticks a lot of credit for originality. This is Asian fusion that is not your grandmother's Asian fusion. You are NOT looking at American Chinese plus Sushi. You are looking at a 50 percent Vietnamese and 50 percent Korean fried chicken. Wrap your mind around that. It is also 50 percent what Americans hate and 50 percent what Americans adore. The 50 percent part that Americans hate is the location. The food truck is in a grungy industrial dirt lot next to two bars and some kind of auto repair/salvage. The highway right next to you does not help. I could not wait to get off his lot. The 50 percent that Americans adore is sugar. Lots and lots of sugar. Americans buy vast amounts of sesame chicken, orange chicken, glazed Korean fried chicken etc etc. Most Asian places that cater to American tastes are subtle about this issue and make only about 25% of their menu super-sweet. Chopsticks is up front and in your face about it - with sweet dishes making up most of the menu. I am on-again off-again with the concept of super sweet Asian dishes. But I do kill for sesame chicken. * * * I like the guy who runs Chopsticks a lot. I like the fact that his sweet dishes are not the same ones you always get. I like the fact that there is a lot of soul and creative integrity in what he does. I like the fact that he is super friendly and super sociable. And I LOVE his tamarind juice drink. * * * Do not leave his stand without getting a Tamarind Juice Drink. This is whole pieces of Tamarind on the bottom, Tamarind Juice Drink and Ice in the middle and Peanuts on the top. You heard that right. Peanuts. You start it with a straw and finish it with a spoon. If I could have that drink every day for the rest of my life, I would not complain. * * * As for the rest of his menu - Let's face it. The quality of sweet and sour pork has gone downhill in virtually every Chinese-American restaurant I know. The next great Asian sweet entree may easily come out of this guy's truck. Eat through his menu. I was not super keen on the glazed wings I had. But I strongly suspect that one of his menu items could be my next addiction. And it won't be an item you get at your local Chinese place. read more

Great Hutto find! Food = Amazing. Had firecracker shrimp, Bahn mi's, and spare ribs. Yum yum yum. The Thai Iced Green Tea = wonderful.

Super good. Service great, food was great. Whole place was super clean. Try the number 14.

Absolutely phenomenal! The bulgogi fries are crispy, excellently seasoned, and a must have! The cheese corn came out sizzling on a platter. The lemongrass peach drink and ribs, which were the stars of the meal, didn't last long enough for a picture. There is plenty of parking, clean picnic tables, and quick service. 100% worth a trip. read more

The service was great! Owners were friendly and attentive. Keep it mind this is a food truck and there is 3 picnics tables out front. The food and drinks were packed with tons of flavor!

Definitely would recommend trying out this spot! I will be returning to try more from the menu. read more

Just finished eating a light, late dinner at Chopsticks, and it was hands down one of the best Asian meals we've had in the Austin area. I saw their video promo on Facebook and was intrigued, especially cuz they're open late and really close to a studio where we dance Wednesday nights. We're often looking for late night eats after. Their online preordering was easy and seamless. The food was ready right on time. This time we just tried the chili jam chicken wings and gua bao. The wings were perfectly crispy, even though they were coated in the most delicious sweet/savory/spicy sauce. The bao bun was fluffy and fresh, and the pork belly tender, crispy, flavorful, and not too greasy. The staff was extremely friendly and attentive, too! They actually came out of the truck around the picnic tables to make sure everyone was happy with their food, and brought us extra napkins for the wings without us even asking. Can't wait to come back and try more! I'll snap some photos next time, too. read more
