    A very cute family-owned Vietnamese restaurant! They had a large menu and also had some unique pastries and drink selections, service was so sweet. The restaurant itself was so nice, and well kept together. Food was home cooked with love!!

    NG Cafe is run by a very sweet couple and it is influenced by Viet and Thai cuisine. I got the Vietnamese egg rolls and Bun Cha Ha Noi they were great. The egg rolls were perfectly crunchy, crispy, and full of flavor. The Bun Cha Ha Noi was very unique; the pork cutlets had good texture but maybe could have had more umami. What the pork cutlets lacked was made up in the sauce as well as the rice vermicelli, which is a weakness of mine. Though a little pricey, Ng Cafe provides a nice, cozy atmosphere to chow on your favorite Thai and Viet bites.

    Grilled Pork

    We just had the best Bánh Mì sandwiches ever at NG Cafe in Austin (Parmer and 35). Grilled Pork and Pepper Shrimp. The owner, Angie, makes her own bread. She was extremely nice and even gave us 2 pieces of their homemade Sesame Hollow Bread when we left.

    The food: I have ordered takeout here for years but I ordered in and switched it up for a Pork Banh Mi this time. It was delicious. I pulled off the fresh jalapeños but the jalapeño spread eventually added up and overwhelmed me. The soup and lemonade cooled me right down though. The vibe: it had been years since I was last inside and they have really switched to a cafe feel in that time with a more limited menu and different look inside. Overall I liked it and it does differentiate them others in the market. Service: the staff is always friendly and food was on the table super quick.

    Pork belly banh mi
    Nicolle M.

    Highly recommend!! The cafe is super cute and the service is friendly. Some tips when ordering- if you like the taste add pate to your banh mi! It adds so much to the sandwich and its a small add. Also, the shortbread cookies are AMAZING! Grab a box before heading out, you won't regret it!

    Singapore noodles

    NG cafe is a decent Vietnamese restaurant in Austin, they offer a variety of dishes (such as fried rice, noodles, etc). I ordered Singapore noodles and it tasted pretty okay, the portion is def on the smaller side. The interior feels hot and I think the AC was not working properly. Parking is widely available but the lot fills up quick, I ended up parking on the other side of the restaurant. Service is decent. Worth trying but probably won't visit again.

    Banh mi tofu
    Selena N.

    A very quaint and cute French Vietnamese cafe vibe. The music and decor are calming and inviting. The staff are kind and very friendly. We got banh mi tofu and banh mi combination. The bread was excellent you can tell it is fresh made daily. My husband felt the meat and pate was lacking a little bit in quantity. The vegetables are incredibly fresh. He said overall not quintessential viet taste but overall very good. I felt the tofu was fried very well and super fresh. We did feel price was a little high but for whatever reason food tends to be higher priced in Austin. A Costco bottle of coconut water is $5! I believe it's a $1 a bottle from Costco directly. Oh also, they give you egg drop soup or hot and sour as an appetizer when you dine in

    This was my first time coming to NG Cafe, and I'm glad we did. From the outside, the restaurant is non-assuming and very low-key, however the inside is bright, spacious, and decorated well. Service was quick. They forgot our matcha latte, but quickly made it once I mentioned it to them. The food was solid. Sandwiches aren't my normal go-to food, but the grilled pork banh mi was a 8/10 good! My wife had the Classic Combo banh mi and said her's was a 9/10 good. If you're in the area and want good food that's quick, definitely consider coming to NG Cafe!

    Vietnamese Egg Rolls

    We went during a busy lunchtime on Thursday, but the ordering process at the counter went very fast. Since it is open seating, we found an empty table to sit at after ordering. Since it was lunchtime, our meals came with a complimentary soup, which was nice. We got the hot and sour soup, and it was great. It was more on the peppery side, but I loved it. The rest of the meal was good. They offer a wide selection of Vietnamese, Chinese, and Thai dishes.

    Banh Xeo- you take pieces, wrap with lettuce and herbs, and dip
    Lisa O.

    Ng Cafe is just so perfect Took my family here for my birthday, and we all loved it- we tried a number of house specials and pastries, all 5 stars, no notes! I really think you could order anything on the menu and be happy. The house dumplings were the stand out fave for the kids, I loved my Banh Xeo. They make everything from scratch including the bread and the smells in here are amazing. The ambience is peaceful and the owners are so very kind and lovely. Please check out Ng Cafe!!

    Vietnamese Egg Rolls, Tom Kha, Matcha Lemonade alongside

    My group and I really enjoyed our food. I tried the Matcha Lemonade alongside the Vietnamese Egg Rolls and Tom Kha Soup. They were quite delicious. The staff was incredibly accommodating, kind, and patient with our large group. The space is also very quaint and nicely decorated with very clean bathrooms.

    yes, with GF note from the menu or you can alway give us a call Nguyet

    Do they accept cash? is the Vietenmese Yogurt pretty quick to come out?

    It's premade and DELISH! You must also try their homemade silken tofu pudding!

Parking & Service: Arrival was stress-free thanks to the massive parking lot in the strip mall. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave us great recommendations. The Spice Factor: Interestingly, they offer two spice tiers: 1-10 and 10-15. We usually prefer a heavy heat, but found that levels 8 and 9 were still relatively mild. If you're a true spice lover, you might want to venture into the double digits! The Food: Portions are very generous and perfect for family-style dining. Everything was flavorful, though my one small note for the kitchen is that some dishes leaned a bit heavy on the salt. Overall, a great spot with big flavors.

The service has always been great--servers are attentive, friendly, and quick to clear plates, which we've always appreciated. It's part of why we kept coming back. We usually order the fried pompano, and it's always been a favorite. But the last couple of times, the fish has been noticeably smaller--like almost half the size it used to be. That was already a letdown. What really did it for us, though, was finding a plastic to-go cup lid inside one of our drink glasses. It was buried in there, and completely threw us off. At that point, we were just done. It's a bummer because we've liked this place for a long time, but between the smaller portions and that experience, we won't be coming back.

The menu is pretty extensive too, so it was easy for everyone to find something they were excited about. I had the Tum Tad salad, which was super fresh and flavorful with a nice balance of tangy and savory. For dessert, the mango sticky rice was a standout. It was made with a black rice that actually looked kind of blue, which made it really visually fun. Not totally sure if there was some ube mixed in or just the natural color, but either way it was delicious and a little different from the usual version.

My first few bites were a little underwhelming because it tasted slightly fishy and the flavors didn't seem to come together. After giving the box a really good shake, though, everything mixed properly and it tasted much better. I ordered a spice level 2, and wow, it was actually pretty spicy. I usually add extra chili sauce to my Pad Thai, but this time I didn't need to. If you're sensitive to heat, I probably wouldn't go any higher than a level 2. The peanuts added a nice crunch, and I highly recommend asking for extra lime. I felt like the dish could have used a little more acidity to balance everything out. While the slight fishiness wasn't my favorite, the overall flavor was good, and it's definitely one of the better Pad Thai options I've found in Austin so far. Not the best Pad Thai I've ever had, but one I'd happily order again when the craving hits.

It's perfectly poached, incredibly tender, and paired with fragrant rice that's rich without being greasy. It also comes with a decadent bowl of soup. I usually start with the chicken skin appetizer, which iss dangerously addictive. It's crispy, light, and comes with dipping sauce. The combo plate is the way to go if you want to try the poached and fried chicken. You get a variety of textures and flavors, both juicy and crunchy. Both sauces are great to dip in and the chicken goes great with the rice. If you can handle spice, the boat noodles are a great option too. The broth is complex and spicy, with tender noodles and well-seasoned meat. The spiciness is definitely a build up, but the broth is so good you can't stop drinking it. Overall, P Thai's is a great spot for lunch or dinner. Plenty of seating inside with some outside, nice staff that explain everything, and a great spot to share food.

That said, it was honestly delicious, just not what I expected. One thing to note: they don't really do modifications, so just be prepared to order things as-is. I also have to give them credit for the outdoor seating area because it's such a nice setup. It's dog-friendly, shaded, spacious, and they even have a self-serve water station. My only critique is that I think the portions are a bit small for the price point. Still, I'd recommend checking it out.
