    Overall decent pho with great flavor. The restaurant is beautiful inside. I came here for the homemade noodles and they were pretty good.

    The food was amazing very good and flavorful. The ambience was very well decorated and even down to the details at the table and cups. I loved it. I will definitely be returning, this might be my new solo date spot. 10/10 recommend

    When it comes to Viet food, the RVA community ensures that there are a there are a ton of really great, family owned options. As a result, d'Annam has some formidable competition as it steps into the local food scene. Located in a former Burger King, the restaurant stands out for its sleek interior and thoughtful details (see cute boat shaped utensil holder). I tried the Bún Bò Hué, vermicelli bowl, and Bán Xéo. The serving sizes were great and had good flavor overall. While the ambiance inside makes for a great date night, it comes with a slight price increase compared to your typical mom and pop restaurant.

    They make their own noodles need I say more. The really cool thing about this place that makes a difference from a lot of other places is they feature food from the north? A lot of people that are from Vietnam there in the US are from the south The pho had a really good taste and they had one of my favorite gifts that I cannot find in America. They got quite crowded as we were leaving on a Friday night. The one thing I think was disappointment was the Vietnamese iced coffee was seven bucks so I skipped it.

    Beautiful restaurant with a great atmosphere. The food was delicious and tasted authentically Vietnamese. The service was warm and friendly, which made the experience even better. And coming from someone who's Vietnamese, I'd definitely recommend it!

    Ambience: The outside is really nothing crazy, but once I walked in those doors, I was blown away by how intentional the owners have been with the space. From the wooden awnings, the rainbow of lanterns, rattan lampshades, down to the ceramic cups at each table, every corner has gentle nods to Vietnamese culture bathed in a soft ambient glow. Each table even comes with a little flyer to explain the story behind the restaurant. The tableware -- even the container that utensils come in- is so cute and beautiful. Service 5/5: Everyone was truly so welcoming and happy to answer any questions you had, it was easy and never felt like a bother. Food 4/5: the food was good, full of umami. I was a bit disappointed that they did not have their hot stone pho yet but I will be back to try that. I got their Bun Bo Hue and my friend got their Indochine fried rice. The rice had great flavor, solid dish. The bun bo hue was not the most standout version that I have had, but it was still delicious. I think it would be a very good introduction to bun bo hue for people who have never tried it before and are mildly adventurous. I personally miss some of the toppings that I've had in other versions, but entirely respect their decisions. One thing to note is that their spring rolls come one per order. Overall, great restaurant for a wide audience to come and try some delicious Vietnamese food with approachable options, friendly staff, and great ambience! Don't be fooled by the exterior!

    Excellent meal at a new restaurant in the area. Soft opening in early February, so still adding items to the menu and fine-tuning things. Decor was nicely upscale and inviting, and the hostess was friendly and welcoming. Even though a new place, lunch was busy. The food we had was excellent; the broths were flavorful, the homemade noodles were toothsome and not overcooked. Wife subbed shrimp for the beef in her dish, and we were happily surprised by the amount of shrimp she received - with no additional up charge. My dish was nicely spiced (although I did add some extra chili sauce). Fresh tea was loose leaf and fragrant, steeping in pot placed over warming candle. Spoke with the owner who was very friendly. We discussed the menu and he agreed that they were keeping it smaller to focus on providing the best quality. Definitely a place that is worth a visit.

    Visited on 2/12/26 - there are a few menu items missing as it's a new restaurant and they're still growing. My husband and I had a lovely experience here. My favorite dish out of everything we tried was the entree, d'Annam Signature Rice Plate (Cơm Nhà Combo). The proteins were all flavored so perfectly with a lemongrass taste. The chili oil on the table added a nice little kick and added flavor. Also enjoyed sauces on the table including fish oil, soy sauce, Sriracha and hoisin. Out of the appetizers we tried, the cheesecake roll was our favorite - would definitely be good as a dessert as well. The eggroll and wings were satisfactory but didn't blow us away. Staff were very friendly and overall it was a great experience - we can't wait to return to try more menu items.

    Bon bo hue
    Cherie O.

    The owner was so kind, helping us to figure out what to order. He was our primary server and he wanted to ensure that we had the best experience. We had tea, a Vietnamese one described as being "grassy "but it was delicious as we waited for the pot to steep. I got the second Pho under the signature one. I had requested Shrimps instead of beef. No extra charge for eight of them. Pho Bo was its name. Hubby got Bun Bo Hue but as usual he spiced it with the chili garlic paste found on our table. But he allowed me a sip of his broth beforehand. Both of our Phos were perfect. This restaurant is having a soft opening so just a few items are not yet available but the flavors today indicate a promising grand opening. The outside of this restaurant has not been converted enough but the inside is very well decorated. We will have to return.

    Banh Xeo
    Laveta H.

    Finally, another Vietnamese restaurant that serves Banh Xeo. So colorful, fresh and crunchy. Such a workout dish. Messy and yummy at the same time. Shout out to the best waiter in town - Brian. He was our waiter the first week they opened and he recognized us the second time we came. He is so patient and attentive. Loved talking to him about the culture. Will hope that he is my waiter the third time I attend. Can you believe this building was a Burger King!! Wonderful and creative decor.

    food is delicious!

The space is huge for a walking-mall restaurant, with several dozen tables and booths. Music is nice background not overly loud. Service was absolutely excellent and food came out within minutes. Empty dishes picked up within seconds. We ordered an appetizer of crab rangoon. It came to us hot and tasty but to be honest it had little to no fake crab in it. That was a little disappointing. For our mains I had chicken stir fried noodles and pork soup dumplings. When it was put in front of me I thought the noodles looked like a smallish portion but this turned out not to be the case -- the dish was more than adequate and very nicely composed. I enjoyed every bit of it but barely finished it. The soup dumplings were umami-on-a-spoon. Served in a steam basket, these were very warm and the broth inside was just perfect. I thought it was a tad salty, my wife disagreed. And since it was her main course and not mine, I will bow to her opinion. This was a nice casual meal, especially for the price. If you go, do not pass up the opportunity to walk up to the bao station and watch the food being made. Our server encouraged us to do this, and it was really interesting, and the staff doesn't seem to mind the attention!

The orange chicken from Ugly Dumpling is absolutely amazing!!!!! I was recommended the orange chicken by my server who was very kind and attentive!! Also, I got the noodles with spicy sauce which weren't super spicy but still tasty and I tried the veggie bao buns for the first time and really enjoyed them! Overall great food, and I will definitely keep coming back.

I had only planned on spending $60 or so but ended up spending $140 including a great tip for my waiter. I got the Fried Chicken Banh Mi, Dan Dan Noodles, and my guest ordered the Brisket Pho, and Singapore noodles alongside a Mojito and their coconut ice cube drink (blanking on the name). I loved every bite of my food. The Daikon Radish was the highlight of the Banh Mi and I was in love with every bite. Visibly dancing and gleaming with joy while eating + the great music being played also helped. I didn't eat my sandwich until it got cold as I like to finish a dish before trying another. I started with the Dan Dan noodles and had to drink 3 of the liters of water by myself to finish my meal . I took my guest's peppers and my peppers and crushed them up into my Dan Dan plate with all the seeds that came with them. In addition I also used all the chili oil paste it came with as well. It was so damn great I enjoyed every second. My guest loved their pho and didn't stop eating it and ate half of their Singapore noodles before getting full and having to take it home. They absolutely loved their drinks and it was so fun to watch the bartender make the drinks. Two shakers in hand mixing the drinks and oh boy were they strong . We will definitely be back!!! Oh and they also had chopsticks for us to use and we ate our entire meal with them. I knew I was in for a whirlwind of flavor when the ethnicities of the cooks matched the restaurant and patrons of color from Pakistani, Black, Indian, Korean, Thai, and more were dining in . Only downsides for me personally were the Singapore noodles but it wasn't my dish. I tasted them and didn't think they were for me I usually prefer a different ratio of seasoning for my Singapore noodles. My guest whose favorite dish is Singapore noodles quite adored them. Though they did say the Singapore noodles I make at home are better they still crushed it and the next morning woke up and crushed the rest with a smile on the face . Only thing I didn't like was the pho but that's my personal taste getting in the way. I don't like fish based broths but my guest ate every single last dropped and loved it! So if that's your alley go for it!!! 10/10 will try again!!! P.S. please tip the staff graciously they work so hard. If you're going to order a $100 worth of food don't be the person not tipping or tipping $10 when the service was excellent. Yes tipping cultures shouldn't exist but until they're paid a fair wage please continue to do so. I really hope this restaurant doesn't sell out like other restaurants (En Su Boca )

The entryway is interesting and provides some shelter from the rain, allowing you to manage your umbrella before entering.

I felt slightly anxious at first, being that we were in a cozy two-top amongst the fray, but it subsided quickly because everyone was respectful and reasonably quiet. We ordered the veggie spring rolls to start, and I had the Chinatown Ramen, and my partner had the Chicken Fried Noodles. The appetizer was hot, savory, and spicy with the duck sauce and hot mustard mixture. If you like milder sauce, do not mix it. The entrees came out within five or so minutes of the appetizers, which seemed quick for a busy night. The ramen was spicy, hot, and filling. I was only able to finish about half.
