    Was craving Vietnamese food while in Rockville so we decided to go to this place and I'm glad we did! Normally we go to Eden center when we're craving good Vietnamese food but this is probably one of our new go to places. I got the veggie pho and crab spring rolls and both were delicious. The crab spring rolls were def unique and crispy seasoned well. As for the veggie pho I wasnt expecting much since lots of veggie phos tend to skimp on the tofu and the broth isn't paid much attention to but I was surprised they they had a decent amount of tofu and the veggie broth was well seasoned. It was also priced well for the area. I enjoyed my meal and would definitely come back!

    Came here for another try for lunch. As before food was ok, nothing to go crazy about. The shrimp papaya salad was good with flavor, chicken rice dish was ok.

    It's a great place for a quick meal. I stopped here for a bowl of pho. The price was affordable, the portion was generous. I had a hearty meal of soup with beef and more. The service was good and efficient. The ambiance was casual.

    Bun Thit Heo Nuong (with add-on Spring Roll)
    Sandy L.

    Tried this place with my family for lunch the other day and appreciated the number of unique menu items that are not commonly found on other local Vietnamese restaurants' menus, such as Banh Cuon (Vietnamese crepes), Bun Bo Hue (Spicy lemongrass beef noodle soup), and Thit Quay Gion Bi (Crispy pork belly), for example. The restaurant is located in a strip mall in the Twinbrook area, with a decent number of parking spaces available in a lot right out front. The interior has nicely spaced out tables in the middle of the dining room for medium-sized parties, and some half booths along the perimeter, so no need to worry about crowding or sitting too close to other tables. Service was friendly and our food took a little bit of time to come out - not as long as it would take if it were freshly made - but still took some time as the wrapper of the Spring Roll seemed to taste freshly deep fried (despite the filling being precooked), although I think most items were just reheated. As for the authenticity of the restaurant, I am on the fence about this, as the fish sauce barely tasted like anything. Usually, the tell-tale sign of an authentic Vietnamese restaurant for me is determined by the fish sauce - it should be a balance between sweet, salty, sour, spicy and umami. The fish sauce here was neither of those flavors despite the variety of authentic dishes they offer. Overall, this establishment is a good introduction to some traditional Vietnamese dishes, but enhancing the flavor profile of the fish sauce would definitely make the food taste more authentic. I will come back if I am in the area and craving a certain Vietnamese dish that I can't find elsewhere, but it's likely I won't become a regular here.

    Banh cuon
    Emi V.

    The Banh Cuon dish I had was pretty good. It was different because it came with meatballs like the Bun Cha Ha Noi dish. I would get this dish again! It was a big portion so you can share with others as well. The Bun Bo Hue on the other hand wasn't good, and I wouldn't get it again. It tasted like normal pho broth with a scoop of sate for coloring. The restaurant is very big and spacious.

    Quick dinner first time there quick in and out. The service was wonderful, and the food was delicious. Being a big fan of iced coffee I had to get it and it was Amazing. I think that the ambiance is perfect for its size. It's not overwhelming. Overall the food was very good, fresh, the perfect temperature, and the portion was perfect. I will have to go back and try many of my favorites which are on the menu.

    Bun bo hue
    Jeff T.

    While you should skip the pho here for pho75, the bun bo hue was surprisingly good. Flavorful broth, blood cube that had no odor (firmness on the medium instead of soft), and other various fresh ingredients. The atmosphere was casual. The service was inviting.

    Bahn cuon's texture is decent, nice and thin but I feel that the filling is not as nice as others I've had from Eden ctr, the vietnamese center. The crab spring roll is decent but I probably should just stick w regular spring roll. I like the grilled beef that comes w Bahn cuon. I don't like the broth, I feel like the anise flavor is too strong. Very fast service and overall it is decent food.

    Hello Vietnam in Rockville has this amazing dish Banh Cuon Thit Nuong - basically grilled meatballs and pork in sweet broth with rice crepes with ground pork filling. Definitely unique and one of the few places in the DMV that has it. Service was super friendly and fast. Place is bright and open and a little slow on a Monday night. Yes the prices are kinda steep for Viet food, but it's made up with their portions and the quality of meats. The pho had massive slices of beef. N the bun with grilled pork had so much that my wife needed help finishing with the meat.

    Pho Bo Dac Biet

    I went to Hello Vietnam for a quick lunch after a long day of traveling. I was immediately greeted upon walking in and shown to a table. We decided to order the P4 and our food came quickly. The broth of the pho was delicious and the aromatics used to flavor the broth really came through. The person I was with ordered a fruit smoothie and although it came out a little later than our food, it was tasty and was a great compliment to balance out the smokiness of the pho. The restaurant is located in a shopping center with ample parking and overall I would definitely return.

    Special Crispy Spring Rolls with Crab Meat
    Karen Y.

    I have a few friends who really like this restaurant so decided go check it out. I ordered the spring rolls with crab meat which were a delight and the pho with brisket. It's a okay broth, but not the best broth I've had in the area so I likely won't be back for this. They do have other menu items that aren't normally found in the area like caramlised fish, banh cuon, banh mi bo ne which I may come back to try.

    Reliably one of my favorite go-tos for Vietnamese food. I usually switch it up between a bowl of pho (one size only: LARGE ) and a bun nuong and am always satisfied with whichever one won that day. The flavors are wonderful and balanced and portions are perfect. The service is always prompt and pleasant. We've always been lucky to eat in on the evenings when they're not too busy so have enjoyed their relaxed environment. Will happy continue to frequent for years to come.

    Armistead J.

    I love this spot! The food comes out within 5 minutes of ordering, and it is truly delicious. Every bite is comforting & delicious. The service is outstanding and wonderful. The menu is also extremely affordable- much more so than what you'll find in restaurants in DC. Definitely worth it if you are out in the Rockville area for some good and affordable Vietnamese food. You can't go wrong with any of the pho's, and the spring rolls were delicious.

    Used to pick up food at their warehouse location. Didn't realize they had moved to a permanent…read morelocation 10 months ago. For a store that's open less than a year, this cafe is worn out. Tables not cleaned and most uneven and wonky. Just one sad front of house employee working that I saw just getting through the orders that are self order. This place has zero ambiance. I went to the bathroom and toilet tissue was nearly out and there was no way to even get anyone's attention to attend to that. Employee just kept their head down working. Food- drinks were great. My favorite is the watermelon coconut jelly. We had the pork chop pineapple bun. This is still a good sandwich. Tastes like they used to make it. Juicy pork chop, sweet pineapple bun. The construction of the sandwich leaves much to be desired because all the wet veggie ingredients slide the entire sandwich. Once you start eating, you should not put this sandwich down or it will come apart. They should put the sandwich in a sleeve. We ordered the fried chicken bento box. This bento has changed a bit from their previous version. With the new paper packaging, there are less compartments for goodies. The fried chicken recipe is different as all the batter fell off the chicken and was just a mess. There was close to zero pickles greens. With the dish which I feel brings this kind of bento together. Conclusion is food is decent, ambiance sucks. Would order to go from here but any fried food from here will be a disaster after you get it home. Had high hopes as I loved the previous location's food. Now being able to "look behind the curtain" and see how everything is made, I kind of feel question the cleanliness of this place.

    The jasmine has a very clean floral simple taste. The amber milk tea has a thicker sweet taste…read more Both are good. Boba is a great texture. I enjoyed this tea. The place is clean and smells great from the waffles I think. Not too many milk tea options but the boba and drinks are good so I'll let it slide. The boba lowkey took a while to prepare on the day we came tho. I'm not upset since we weren't in a rush but I was a little surprised. I'm not upset tho and it's my first time here so I can't say that always happens. My friends and I are convinced they used ai for the mural tho lol

My wife ordered a taro milk tea with a cheese foam cap and I went with a Vietnamese iced coffee with an ube cream topping. Both of our drinks were well prepared and had a ton of flavor. My wife liked that you can choose what kind of tea (black, green, or Oolong) for the taro drink, and we both found the cheese foam to be perfectly creamy and savory. Similarly, my strong iced coffee was prepared according to my taste with 0% sugar, and the cream topping had a discernible ube flavor without excessive sweetness. We both opted for grass jelly mixed into our potables and appreciated the soft, slurpable texture which indicated freshness. Our drinks averaged around $8 per, which is pretty standard. The interior of Ding was clean and bright, certainly pleasant enough in which to pass some time. We are glad we tried this place and can easily foresee returning when in the area.

I would get both of these drinks again And I'd def come again!
