When I'm not craving a bowl of pho, I order the Prawn Vermicelli Bowl and add crispy tofu. It's fresh, flavorful, and satisfying without feeling too heavy. My kids love the lemongrass chicken bánh mì (without the jalapeños), which has become one of their favorite meals. The ladies who work here are always friendly, welcoming, and provide great service. Pho Mignon has definitely become one of our family's go-to spots in Kirkland.

It's set up so you order directly at the counter and then just pick up your food when it's ready. The food here is pretty good, and they have a nice variety of different options on the menu. You can get anything from classic bowls to sandwiches, giving you plenty of choices depending on what you're in the mood for. The ambiance inside is nice and clean. Because of the setup where you just order for yourself at the counter and go grab your food when it's ready, I didn't really engage with anyone on the staff. There isn't much to say about the service since it's mostly self-serve, but the overall vibe makes it an easy, comfortable place to get a quick bite. I would definitely come here again. It's a great, straightforward option when you want a good meal without a long, drawn-out dine-in experience.

I only realized after the lady behind the counter didn't look up once or acknowledge me, which gave me unwelcoming vibes. We ordered the brisket pho, vermicelli bowl, fried rolls, steak taters and still ended up paying $78 which seems a bit ridiculously overpriced since a bowl of pho in Vietnam is about $2. I'll stick to take outs next time, and only if the cheaper pho option down the street isn't available.

This was on a Friday at 6pm and we came to a very empty parking lot until you try parking closer to the many businesses located along the Bella Bottega Shopping Center where this gem is located. Inside is very casual with a ton of tables that can seat various group sizes, and my friend and I got a seat closest to the register. Menu has typical items for a Vietnamese restaurant like pho, banh mi sandwiches, bun, rice dishes and vegetarian options. There was actually a lot of stuff so I was slightly overwhelmed. I got their large phở tái bò viên, which is pho with medium rare beef and meatballs. Note that there is only a $1 difference before tax between the medium- and large-size pho, and I saw the medium bowls being much smaller than the large one I got, so it's worth getting the larger one! Broth is warm, aromatic and comforting with the right amount of everything, and the meats inside gave it more depth. The noodles kept together easily in my bowl and did not break apart easily when picking them up with my chopsticks. I also asked for extra beef, which is $4 more; this was put inside my pho instead of being served raw on a separate plate like i've seen in other Vietnamese restaurants. My friend got their Yummy Noodles house special bun with chicken, and he loved it a lot! It was served in the same bowl size as the large pho I got, hence he couldn't finish what was in front of him entirely. Awesome food here, annd an awesome place that had a ton of people throughout our one-hour time here!

Unfortunately, not many Vietnamese restaurants have this dish on their menu…read more Before i noticed Square Lotus offer this dish, i had to drive down to Renton if i wanted to eat my very favorite Vietnamese dish. Square Lotus offers an extensive choice of dishes. This visit we ordered the tropical fresh rolls and the pork on skewers, along with banh xeo The banh xeo was really nice and crispy. The only 2 drawbacks. for me was ... instead of pork belly, they use chicken, i think white meat cause the meat is very dry. The second is they don't offer a lot of fresh herbs with this dish. Just some cilantro and one small branch of Thai basil Next time i order this i will definitely ask for pork belly instead of chicken in my banh xeo. Definitely recommend you trying this restaurant. BTW, the offer an extensive amount of vegetarian dishes

Yum yum yum! Square…read moreLotus was highly recommended by a local. It did not dissapoint. I visited with a large group and the staff was very attentive and kind. They have a large menu with lots of options, and lots of items I was not familiar with. Our table ordered the spring rolls with pork. They were delicious! I went with their Classsic Vermicilli bowl which comes with pork, shrimp, a tiny egg rolls, noodles and cucumbers. It was delicious the pork was very tasty and the shrimp were seasoned perfectly. The restaurant is large and definitely a spot for families both small and big. I only noticed a few to go orders. Great spot for Vietnamese food if you happen to find yourself in Bellevue.

It has that hole-in-the-wall feel off Aurora, but honestly, this is some of the best Vietnamese food I have ever had. I am Vietnamese myself, and I have been looking for months, really years, for a Vietnamese restaurant in the Seattle area that actually feels worth coming back to. A lot of places have been average, or they have dishes like bún riêu or bún bò Huế on the menu but do not really do them well. Lotus Pond does. I tried the bún riêu and the bò né with steak and sizzling eggs, and both were delicious. My friend got the seafood pho and loved it too. Everything tasted like someone actually cared about the food, and I really appreciated seeing menu items that you usually have to search far and wide for, or go somewhere like Orange County or Houston to find done properly. The only downside is that it is definitely on the expensive side, but I will absolutely be coming back. The outside may not be flashy, but the food is seriously worth it.

This place was briefly blowing up my IG feeds in small intervals, so I had it on my list sometime…read moreearly last year. Fast forward a year later to a Sunday at 12:30pm and I finally made the long drive here without going through Aurora Ave since my GPS randomly decided to give my road rage some grace. This place has plenty parking around the perimeter, so it was easy settling in. Only confusion was finding the entrance to this place, but when I did I was actually surprised where I was stepping into. Inside is laid back and cool with plenty of seating for groups of various sizes. There's tables and booths, and I got booth seating for myself when I walked in. There's a TV playing sports nearby where I was, and Vietnamese pop music was playing in the background too. Menu consists of regular foods in most Vietnamese restaurants, though their provincial noodle soups and banh mi sandwiches caught my eye. They even have bún măng vịt (duck and bamboo shoot noodle soup), my favorite that I gotta try next time I come here! From my IG feeds and as a starting point, I got their bánh mì thịt heo nướng (grilled pork Vietnamese sandwich), which comes with all the works of a regular banh mi sandwich, though I was kinda surprised how brightly orange the grilled pork was. Regardless, it was tasty and the meat was juicy. The pork pate added a nice savory touch to the sandwich, and no other condiment was in excess that it took away taste from the flavorful grilled pork. Staff was very kind throughout, and refilled my water every now and then. It was also nice chatting with one of them about our day and other recommendations from the menu. There's so much to have on their menu so I need to make the drive here again to have more of their stuff!

We stumbled upon Young Brothers Pho while in Kirkland. We got two of their dishes: the Pho Tai Chin…read moreNam Gan Sach (their #14) and the Bun Bo Hue (their #16). The lady that helped us was super friendly and helped us right away as we came in. Let's start with the #14! The pho broth was pretty darn amazing! They nailed the broth flavor! I didn't need to add any hoisin sauce or anything to it, it tasted perfect! The broth was delightful and it hit the spot. They did not cheap out on the protein which I appreciated! (Rare Beef, Brisket, Well-Done Flank, Tendon & Tripe). This might be the best Pho in WA! Next is #16, the Bun Bo Hue (Spicy lemongrass beef soup). It was very flavorful, a little bit on the sweeter side, had a lot of meet, including oxtail, meatballs, and tendon. The meet to noodle ratio was great, and the soup base was not really spicy. The only thing missing from the traditional bun Bo hue is the pork blood and the banana leaves vegetables. But other than that, it was really good. Leaving this place, we felt fulfilled and satisfied! Definitely coming back here again to try their other dishes. I highly recommend coming here to if you want really tasteful soup and great service!

I ordered a few different items to try: Pho: The broth was pretty bland and lacked that deep, aromatic flavor you usually want in a good pho. Wings: They didn't have much flavor either and felt a bit under-seasoned. Pork Chop: On the flip side, this was incredibly salty and completely overpowered the dish. It's a lovely spot to sit and the service is great, but the kitchen definitely needs a bit more consistency with their seasoning.

Luckily they…read moretexted us in only about five minutes, but unfortunately the host was preoccupied... so we waited near the entrance until they called my name. The host was very quiet and although I didn't hear him, luckily my daughter did. I asked for a five star curry with Salmon, but they informed me that they could only do three stars so ordered the three star curry, a side of spicy sauce and rice. My daughter ordered the Phad See Eiw with tofu. The server delivered the wrong noodle dish, I immediately said that it wasn't what we ordered; she ignored me, dropped it off and left for the next table where they informed her that she had swapped the dishes. The salmon was quite good, seared and crispy around the edges. The curry wasn't spicy at all, so I had to add the full side of spicy sauce. The spicy sauce made it spicy enough, but it was sour. I tried to explain this to the server; instead of hearing me out she immediately brought more spicy sauce. Finally I was able to get them to cook the curry with the spicy sauce making it less sour and the flavor was good. The rice was definitely insufficient for the amount of curry ordered, which I found strange given how cheap rice is. I tried my daughters noodles. They use a cheaper oil and added lots of sugar, making it a sub par dish. We also ordered a young coconut, but it wasn't that young and the meat was hard. At $12 for an item that costs $1.50 I was underwhelmed. Overall the dishes were hit and miss, and the service was sub par. Try it at your own risk.
