Bold tangy flavors with a good amount of spice. However, they gave our dish to the other table by accident, left it there for a while, and then took the same dish back and gave it to our table, which I think is a very unsanitary practice. Betel leaf Wagyu - beef was soft with a good char. A slight earthiness due to the leaf. Well seasoned with the lemongrass and spices. Wrapping it in the vermicelli and the lettuce and then pouring some of the tangy sauce balanced the dish out really nicely Hue steamed rice cakes - have had better at another restaurant, felt like the rice cakes were too thick here, and there wasn't enough contrast of textures between the toppings and rice cake Saté grilled squid - this was fantastic! The squid was not super chewy but also retained that nice spring. That lemongrass chili sauce was sooooo good From Hué with Clams - this was ok, nothing super special. I liked that the pork crackling wasn't super hard. The soup that came with it (I think it's clam soup) was a nice palate cleanser. Clam was slightly fishy. Got it with vermicelli and that is the correct choice for this dish. Yogurt drink - Pretty refreshing, and there are bits of like candy jelly at the bottom you can eat. read more

3.5/5 ahh this was a bit disappointing :( i think i've just been chasing the high of banh anh em since i went and i thought this place might satiate that desire but it did not. everything was good but not great. the pho bo was slightly above average they gave a lot of meat and i liked the flat noodles. i think this pho was more northern style which i usually like more than southern style. broth was savory and yummy. probably my favorite thing we got but not by much. 7.5/10 i was very disappointed by the banh mi sai gon :,-( it sounded rlly interesting like a cool mash of ingredients but the mix of them all just tasted like mush. bread was crispy but not super crispy. 5/10 wouldn't order again the grilled chicken banh mi was slightly better they did give a lot of chicken but the chicken was average. again, it wasn't super memorable or show stopping. 6-7/10 i think the vibe of this place is rlly cute they were playing a lot of wave to earth songs and the staff was nice enough to let us sit there and yap until closing. price was also good but the food wasn't amazing and i probably wouldn't come back for the items we tried. i think if i came with lower expectations i would've left a lot happier read more

I came here recently for dinner and thought that the food was alright. As all Vietnamese people know in NYC, there is a lack of good Vietnamese food. However, with the opening of this restaurant, I was hoping for that fact to change. The interior of the restaurant is really cute, and the service is great. We ordered their bo la lot, banh xeo/khoai, mi quang, and bun cha. Out of all of them, our favorites were the bo la lot and bun cha. While I did feel that the bun cha was a bit bland, it was still overall good and the pork was flavorful. The bo la lot was also a favorite. However, the banh xeo and mi quang was a bit of a let down for me. I felt that the mi quang had too much onion and was also too bland. I've tried the mi quang from their sister restaurant, High Lua, and it was so different compared to the one here. And, don't even get me started on the banh xeo. Nearly the entire inside of the banh xeo was filled with egg--similar to an omelette. It completely changed the flavor profile of the banh xeo and you couldn't taste anything but the egg. It was also served with peanut sauce, which is interesting. Overall, I was very unimpressed with the food here--albeit, the ambiance and service were stellar. read more

If you know Vietnamese people in New York, you've likely heard the Viet food scene in the city is uninspired at best, and totally flavorless. This is why many people outside the culture only know the cuisine for banh mi and pho, when there is such a breadth of different dishes this dynamic cuisine has to offer. Which is why I was so excited to dine at Moc Mac with a Vietnamese friend, who delighted at the vast array of dishes they serve here, not seen at most other Viet spots in the city. We were there during lunch on a Thursday and excited to see mostly other Vietnamese folks dining in, which was a good sign. We settled on wings, huế steamed rice cakes, baby clam bites, and Quang Nam golden noodle. I'll just cut right to the chase and say every single dish was bland. I know hue steamed rice cakes really require a heaping spoonful of fish sauce to be flavorful, but even with each bite dressed, the shallots, pork, and shrimp did little to add flavor to each bite, which was supposed to be an easy win. I felt similarly about the baby clams, which was served with a stale rice cracker that we didn't finish. The wings were the worst dish, incredibly dry and overcooked. The Quang Nam noodle dish was okay. The ingredients sounded promising, wide rice noodles in a light turmeric broth, topped with sautéed shrimp, braised pork, quail eggs, peanuts, herbs, and sesame crackers. But we didn't finish this dish either. I think they really overcook their protein here. A saving grace was the charming ambience and friendly servers, which made the overall dining experience pretty relaxing, despite none of the food being good enough to want any more of it. I see their ratings creeping up from when they first opened, but imho they need a little QA in their kitchen to really stand out among their competitors. read more

Mộc Mạc - Hu Steamed Rice Cakes - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

Mộc Mạc is a Vietnamese restaurant in NYC, specializing in dishes from Central and Southern regions of Vietnam. There is limited street parking but you should be able to find parking or take MTA public transportation. We were lucky to find parking walking distance to the restaurant. The first thing that hits you is the strong fish sauce smell when you first enter. Once you get settled in, the smell becomes less noticeable. I don't recommend bringing a jacket or coat that will absorb odor easily. We tried three appetizers. The Wagyu betel leaves, the banh beo, and the banh Xeo. My favorite of the three was the Wagyu betel leaves rolls. I did not particularly like the banh beo, but two others in the party enjoyed it. Reason, the dough was too thick, and I am comparing to ones that I have had back home that's better. The banh Xeo was unique with the added pork patties. Normally, when made traditionally, you would use pork belly. I understand the pork patties is an easier substitute that require less time to prepare for a restaurant. I'll place it as a third option of the three appetizer, least likely to order again. The pho and mi Quang noodles (golden noodles) were both unique and flavorful. The restaurant uses fresh pho noodles. The broth was only slightly aromatic. There is a subtle saltiness and more sweetness to the broth. If you are looking for a more central Vietnamese noodle with strong fish flavors, I recommend the mi Quang. The salty pork flavor of the broth and chewer noodles and crackers for texture will give you quite the central Vietnamese culinary experience. If we had not already had a full meal at a Japanese restaurant nearby, we were restaurant hopping, we would have tried more dishes. I would have liked to try the fish and seafood hot pot and baby clams. Until next time, the service was outstanding and I highly recommend. read more

The girlies knew what they were talking about when they recommended the betel wagyu app!! I'd come back for this dish alone - very decently portioned and the sauce that comes with it is refreshing and tinged with some spice. I love how the vermicelli is cooked here and is thin and fragrant. Such an amazing bite for $22, I'd get this as an entree alone! We also tried the golden noodles with turmeric for $24. The double protein was exciting but this dish fell short - the 2 pieces of shrimp were way too over cooked and they were too firm. There's half an egg - I'm always curious because why does the other half of my egg go into someone else's dish hahaha. The noodles are actually a really good texture but something about the flavor of the broth gave us flavor fatigue really fast. We stopped in after a workout for a late dinner around 8:15PM and the hostess gave us a 30 min wait time so we actually had some skewers from a place around the corner otherwise we might have gotten 2 entrees. The staff are all SO nice although it is quite noisy even later into the night. read more

My Vietnamese friends recommended this spot as one of their favorites in NYC so far! My friend and I split small plates to share. Everything was delicious and perfect size, although I'm not sure if we would've been as satisfied splitting those plates with a larger party (4 people?? I'd be getting like only 2 pieces of each of the small plates). Personal favorites were the pork jowl and the bánh bèo huế. I liked the squid at first, but there were some large pieces in the mix which were very chewy/awkward to eat (my friend laughed at me as I tried chewing this huge piece that I couldn't quite bite through lol) read more

Moc mac pattywhack, give a dog a bone... Okay, okay, it doesn't quite fit. But the tune was running through my non-Vietnamese speaking head for a while. Anyway, there's a dearth of quality Viet places in NYC, and the ones that do exist generally skew toward upscale fusion. Moc Mac is no exception, but at least the flavors justify the prices. - Muc Nuong Sa Te (Sate Grilled Squid): One of the best items on our table. Perfectly cooked squid encased in a delectable lemongrass sauce--what's not to love? - Ngheu Hap La Que (Basil Clam): For those cold, cold nights to warm your cold, cold heart - Bahn Beo Hue (Steamed Rice Cakes): Just okay. The addition of pork was a bit unwelcome for our non-meat-eating friend who thought she'd be able to try this, and I don't think the essence of cochon really added to the dish. - Mi Quang Tom Thit (Golden Noodle): Not my favorite--far too sweet for my liking, though I appreciated the wide rice noodles, shrimp, braised pork, and other toppings. But the salty-sweet lovers will go Lady Gaga over this dish - Lau Mam (Mekong Delta Reverie): If you're looking for the biggest bang for your buck, this is it. Delta-style hot pot for 2--if by 2, you mean 2 villages of starving children. You'll get more broth, veggies, meat, and...eggplant?...than you could ever imagine. Seriously. You'll get so much, you'll wonder which H-Mart they depleted. And see more eggplant than a thirsty, 45yo, divorced father trying Tinder for the first time. Need libations? Try the Yaourt Hat Dac (Palm Seed Yogurt) if you want a thick, creamy, frothy milkshake-like drink with just enough zest to put a spring in your step. Service was friendly, though language was sometimes a barrier. The space is cute but narrow (railroad-style), and I'm pretty sure they got the same interior decorator as Naks. read more

The service was really good. The waitress was really friendly. The ambience was also pretty nice, they decorated the place well. Most of what we ordered was really good, especially the betel leaf Wagyu-- I think that is a must order and was a fan favorite amongst the table. The other dishes were also pretty good including the tofu which was my second favorite. The yogurt drink was good My friends ordered pho but because they leave the noodles out of the soup for you to put it in yourself, they were dry and clumpy. read more

Delicious authentic Vietnamese flavors. I could taste the lemongrass without it being overpowering and the lime and fish sauce mixes really well. The betel leaf wagyu was my favorite. It was juicy and flavorful and reminded me of the Vietnamese beef dishes back in San Jose. We also got the basil clam which had a delicious basil lemongrass soup/sauce. I actually liked the sauce more than the clams. The pho and hotpot were also good but I thought the appetizers were where the flavors shined. read more

The jowl was my favorite of the 2 starters we got. It had a nice charred taste and the fermented bean curd sauce was marinated in a way that's more enjoyable than what my mom used to give me LOL. It's a bit fattier than I expected, but still enjoyed it. The baby clams were a bit bland, perhaps salt, fish sauce, and/or lime would've made it better. The pho broth was pretty tasty! They use fresh pho noodles which influenced the broth too much, eventually it tasted starchy and like the noodles. I still enjoyed it though. It's not fatty like most northern style phos. The golden quang was really disappointing. It was quite bland and not what I expected at all. I was hoping for a savory, light umami broth. The portions were bigger than i expected and it was priced really well! read more

SERVICE - located in the east village on 2nd ave between 5th and 4th streets - very quaint interior with seating for small and large groups - not very crowded on a weekday evening but could be better to make a reservation if you want to guarantee a table - very polite and attentive service continuously refilled our water cups and checked on our table multiple times during our meal - ambiance good for a semi casual meal - food served relatively quickly MENU - authentic vietnamese dishes split into small plates and heartier portions - vegetarian/vegan options available - slightly pricey FOOD - grilled tofu with sa te (8/10); two large pieces of tofu marinated in bright and flavorful sa te sauce with a side of rice and lettuce based salad. This was one of two vegetarian options in the main section, with the other one being a pho. I was not very familiar with sa te so I was curious to try it. It is a lemongrass and ginger based sauce which gives the tofu a strong bright yet warming punch. I loved having two substantial pieces of tofu to go with the generous portion of rice. The only thing that would have set this dish over the top would have been a crunchy element like peanuts or cashews which would also add a layer of creaminess. Otherwise a very tasty and substantial dish. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! Love the ambiance and service and the food was unique and full of flavor. read more

Staff here is so kind and attentive! Every single person! The menu itself is unique; but when all you're craving is pho - you don't really have the interest to explore. But it's incredibly refreshing to see the authentic offerings. We ordered the baby clams, which was not to my preference. Pho was served deconstructed which was pleasant to be able cook the meat to your liking. Reliable taste and textures- just don't know if I would want to pay that price tag. Lunch rush wasn't too busy- but I can certainly see it getting very busy in the evening. Their drink menu was extensive and vibe was a good date spot. read more

I had a delivery order from this fine Vietnamese restaurant I ordered Basil Clams, Shrimp Summer Rolls, Grilled Tofu Bun, Grilled Chicken Banh Mi and Oxtail & Shank Pho. Everything was delicious. The clams were in a broth that was heavily flavored with lemon grass. Shrimp rolls had 3 fresh large shrimp inside each, vegetables and soft rice noodles with well-made peanut dipping sauce. The banh mi was crunchy and fresh with adequate chicken and vegetables though not much pickled or lemon grass taste. The tofu noodle dish was excellent with well made grilled tofu, vegetables, soft noodles and delicious sauce. The pho was the real highlight of the meal. It's always difficult to do a noodle soup as a delivery order but they did it perfectly. Everything was separated into different containers and lots of side condiments were sent. When combined and warmed up, this was a real treat! Packing was excellent. Delivery was quick. Highly recommended, especially for a pho at home, but also for everything mentioned. read more

Came to try this new Vietnamese spot based on a friend's recommendation, and it did not dissapoint! The appetizers were very tasty, anc had some creative flavors relative the typical Vietnamese restaurant. The entrees of pho and clam rice were both delicious and decently portioned. Out of all the food items, my personal favorite was the pork jowl, which had a nice smoky flavor which paired well with the chewy bites. The accompanying sauce was also tasty. We were at the restaurant in the middle of the afternoon, so there were only a few tables at the time. Service was great as they were not too busy then! read more

The food here was just okay. It's surprising too because when you look at all the pictures, and see all the items on the menu, you'd think this place would be phenomenal just given the rarity of some of the dishes, and the quality and variety of herbs that you don't get in most Vietnamese restaurants in NYC. But the food ended up just being OK. Nothing was all that impressive besides the fact that it's hard to find that particular dish. The hot pot looks delicious but is mostly standard, the betel leaf wrapped beef is normally one of my favorite dishes but it was just so-so, and the beef salad was kind of passable. I can't quite pinpoint why but everything just tastes a little bit off. read more

Cute little Vietnamese restaurant that just opened up in the East Village. The restaurant literally just opened, so imagine some things are subject to change as this place matures. We had the beef pho and chili shrimp wings. The beef pho was solid, the meat quality was good and the broth is above average for New York (though I wouldn't necessarily rave about it). The wings were fairly standard, but feature a type of umami-style seasoning that I enjoyed. As a heads up, they do have a lunch menu with banh mi, though for some reason they didn't really advertise it when we were there. Overall it's solid, and I enjoyed the meal we had, would come back. read more

Recommended dishes- Betel Leaf Wagyu, Charred Pork Jowl, Baby Clam Bites, Mi Quang Noodles, and Mekong Delta Reverie. Also, I removed dish descriptions for room so see the photos/uploaded menu. I have been to this excellent new East Village Vietnamese restaurant twice, though the first time was much more abridged. The first time I was there was a week or two after they opened, but I couldn't get a table. The next time, I went here with one of the many groups I usually eat with. The service was friendly, and the inside is a bit dim for photos. In terms of drinks, they have a unique short cocktail menu, all $15, and some other drinks. My choice, the Hong Kong Bên Hồng Chợ Lớn. The drink was cutely served in a teacup and was quite strong, with a lot of shochu in front, plenty of sweetness from the milk and jackfruit, and some tea flavor at the back. It was unique and tasty, but I'm not sure if I would recommend it to everyone. Another person liked the Gánh Bún. For food, we ordered the following per four people and left plenty full. The first appetizer, or small plate, to arrive was the tasty Hến Xúc Bánh Đa/Baby Clam Bites for $12. The clams were chopped into small pieces and had a very mild chew. They lacked any briny flavor, which I liked, and I tasted plenty of lemongrass, along with other herbs. The rice crackers had a texture very similar to shrimp crackers, and their slight glutinous texture paired nicely with the clam. My favorite appetizer was their outstanding take on Bò Lá Lốt/Betel Leaf Wagyu for $21. The dish was an elevated take on the Vietnamese street-food classic, served with plenty of greens, rice vermicelli, and fish sauce. Said greens are there are since you're supposed to put the pieces on the leaves and eat them together, though it lacked the rice paper, so it was a tad messy. The beef itself was extremely tender and had a mild herbal flavor from the lolot leaf. Also excellent was the Mã Heo Nướng Chao/Charred Pork Jowl for $12. Pork jowl can be overly chewy or overcooked, but this was neither with the pork very tender and flavorful while being only very mildly chewy. The dish also came with a few grilled shishito peppers and a sauce, which I believe was a spicy mayo, which went pretty well with the pork. Also tasty was the Đậu Hũ Lắc Sả Tốc/Lemongrass Kumquat Tofu for 12. The tofu was slightly firm, with a mildly crispy exterior and a light sweetness. This was also nice and a break from the heavier appetizers. Last and least of the appetizers was the Cánh Gà Lắc Muối Tôm/Chili Shrimp Salt Wings for $15. I found the flavor, unlike everything else, to be just a little bit bland, which is unfortunate, as the wings themselves had a nice light batter and were tender. I would recommend leaving the flavored salt on the plate as an extra, since I think it would work better for customizing the amount of flavor on each wing. As a main dish, I ordered the Mì Quảng Tôm Thịt/Quang Nam Golden Noodle separately for $24. This was a large bowl with two large shrimp, plenty of ground pork throughout, some crackers to break up into the soup for texture, and a boatload of noodles. The broth itself was warming and flavorful, with some greens and chili available in case you want to change the flavor partway through. This was delicious, and if this spot were easier to get into, I'd go here often just for this comforting dish. The rest of the groups shared the Lau Mám/Mekong Delta Reverie for $35. In terms of the description, both Vietnamese words refer to two types of fermented fish paste. The dish arrived as a large pot cooked at the table, with the toppings on the side and a broth inside containing many different aromatics, as well as beef and, I believe, some rice noodles at the bottom. The vegetables included banana blossom, bitter gourd, and other things, while the seafood included a couple of large pieces of fish, multiple shrimp, pork belly, and, unfortunately for me, some squid. As I have a cephalopod allergy, I only tried the broth once it was boiled, which was heavily aromatic with a ton of lemongrass, a slight fermented flavor, some sourness, which I presume was from tamarind, and a bunch of other flavors. It was delicious and massive, and I think three people could share this along with two other appetizers and leave comfortably full. This is an excellent new Vietnamese place in a sea of Vietnamese spots. Compared to most of those, the flavors here are just better, and they specialize in dishes from regions less common in NYC. Would recommend heavily. read more

My friend and I came here for lunch for their soft opening this week. We made a reservation in advance and we were seated right away. The staff was super friendly and nice and there is plenty of seating. The menu isn't huge but there is definitely something for everyone. My friend and I decided to get different dishes to share. -Chili Shrimp Salt Wings: These were pretty good, very crispy and flavorful, it is pretty much two large wings and they cut the flat and then the drumstick on the side. -Betel Leaf Waygu: I saw this highly recommended on Tiktok and was really interested in trying it but it was just okay - it was not as unique as I thought it would be. -Oxtail and Shank Pho: The pho, meat and sauces come separately and then they bring over the soup. There was a decent amount of meat but I felt like the amount of pho was actually pretty little. The broth was pretty good but it did not wow me. I was really excited to try this place but unsure if it is because it was a soft opening and the food was just alright to me. Nothing really stood out to me. read more

I ordered takeout from Moc Mac and really enjoyed the meal. The beef pho was delicious the broth was the true standout with a perfect blend of spices and just a hint of heat at the end. The beef was tender as well, though I would recommend adding extra beef if you like a heartier portion. Everything was packed perfectly and arrived in great condition. All I had to do was reheat the broth, which I prefer piping hot. We also ordered banh mi sandwiches and tried their Saigon version. It was solid fresh bread, good flavor, and a satisfying portion size. Overall, a great takeout experience and definitely a spot I'd order from again! read more
