Viet Kitchen - Dessert - Vietnamese Near Me - Tampa, Florida

We got beef/tendon and beef combination pho. The portions are generous and the broth is flavorful. We also got spring rolls, pork fried rice, egg rolls and viet chicken wings. The spring roll wraps were a bit dry. The kids loved the fried rice and the wings. It's a little more pricey here for viet food compared to other viet restaurants in Tampa, but the food is worth it. I'll be back to try other things on the menu. read more

Delicious Oxtail Pho, great service! Unlike other places Viet Kitchen does NOT charge you for extra broth, which is a huge plus in my opinion because I always need more of this savoury liquid. Will be back soon to try other items on the menu. read more

Visiting from Chicago. Local friends brought us to this place. We ordered the wings, quail and oxtail pho. Wings and quail were out of this world, we ordered seconds. Pho came out. Sincerely the best I've ever had. Full of rich flavors and crystal clear like it's supposed to be. I asked them to open a location in Chicago. read more

This isn't just a regular Vietnamese place that offers Pho and the regular foods you see in a typical restaurant as such. I am so glad I was able to savor real Vietnamese cooking!! :) omg even their basic fried rice tasted SO delicious! We also ordered the fried snapper which was heavenly along with ginger sauce. I just couldn't stop eating the sautéed morning glory! I am just SO glad that more restaurants are finally putting more of their culture and cooking out there than being just another 'cookie cutter restaurant' that is fitting in to suit American palate. I will not be going back to any other Vietnamese place anymore! Thank you Viet Kitchen! Continue to stay authentic! read more

Spring rolls were amazing!! I received my to go order within 10 minutes of ordering and the staff was very friendly. We also got the crab rice and coconut dessert which was delicious. The chili sriracha sauce is the way to go on the crab rice read more

I don't usually write reviews, but after eating at Viet Kitchen 4 days in a row,during our trip to Tampa, I must say this is the best Vietnamese Restaurant in the South East. Their foods are flavorful, fresh and unique. We tried pretty much every dishes on the menu and all of them are well made and prepare. We learn that the chef, Phong, puts a lot of times and efforts to master each dish before putting them on the menu. Our favorites are: Com Bo Luc Lac, Pho, Huu Tieu, Lau Thai, Oc Huong Nuong Bo, Goi Xoai, Ca Kho To and Canh Chua. Not to mention, their service are great! The team are nice, friendly and very helpful. We felt like we were eating at a relative house. This place is a must try if you are in the Tampa area. read more

I've been to Viet Kitchen 4-5 times now and the food has been excellent every time! I will continue to go back. Service is alway friendly and polite. They have dishes that you don't get anywhere like Whelk for example. I had it with the lemongrass spicy broth as well as the scallion/peanut topping before. Either one delicious. I also has there oysters a few times and it's fantastic. The Quail is very good as well. My daughter loved it. Pho was very delicious. The salt and pepper shrimp as well as the Hu Tieu were good but nothing extraordinary. All of their salads are fantastic. I don't know how they make their sauce but the sauce / dressing is outstanding! All of their smoothies are made using fresh ingredients only! Love that. No powder and artificial ingredients. That's hard to come by nowadays. Love this place. I don't give many restaurants 5 star review but this one is totally 5 star! read more

Came here to Tampa for Vacation, this is one the of best Viet restaurant, I have had so far, the vibe and the food reminds me of being back in Vietnam.

OMG. This is honestly the pho that I have been looking for since I moved to the Tampa area. I stumbled upon this restaurant while going to pick up some groceries from next door when I realized that I was hungry and they just opened for the day. This is probably one of the first places that I just went in blindly without looking up reviews or Instagram posts to see what others said, so I was a little worried when I realized this after I ordered. The decor was nice, the staff was very friendly, and overall nice ambience for a small restaurant. I knew I wanted pho so I quickly perused the menu just to see what else was there but was ultimately there just to eat pho. I ordered the pho Dac Biet and boyyyy was I happy when it came out. You could see how clear, but rich the broth was with all the thinly sliced meat placed perfectly and bite sized meatballs and just enough of onions, cilantro, and green onion without being over whelming. I usually like to taste my brother before I add anything in it because I hate the ruin a good bowl of pho by altering it with adding bean sprouts, lime, sriracha, and hoisin (hold the Nuoc mam because I've had many accidents with it). As soon as I tasted the broth, I knew it needed nothing else! There's only one pho that I can eat without adding all the extras and that's my dad's. I was very pleasantly surprised at how good this was, dare I say maybe better? (Ah, can't) than my dad's, that I did not even need to add a single drop of anything to it. The broth was so clear and fresh, not frozen(and if it was, it wasn't for long). It had the perfect balance of saltiness with natural sweetness. It definitely tasted like it was just finished this morning and had not been simmering all day/week like other places. The cuts of meat were so perfectly thin and the brisket, oh the brisket, was freshly cut with a little marbling for flavor. I hope everyone has a bowl like mine because it honestly could not have been better. Well, I think a little tripe would have been good but I can do without it especially since it had many pieces of tendon. I can't say that I'm a pho connoisseur, but I am pretty picky and I thoroughly enjoyed this. I felt very passionate about this bowl of pho, which is very strange because I grew up in New Orleans with many pho restaurants, many Sunday morning memories, and I have not felt this way about pho except when I get a bowl of my dads. Anyway, it's $12 for a taste of pure comfort. I wish I lived closer to make this a regular spot of mine but may be worth the trip anyway when I crave an incredible bowl of pho. read more

A Vietnamese friend recommended this place to us and we're so glad she did! The shrimp and pork fresh rolls were outstanding. The mango salad with shrimp came with mounds of matchstick fruit and vegetables, flavorful basil and crunchy fried onions snd scallions. Unique, refreshing and delicious. We ordered the Bo Luc Lac -- tender beef cubes sautéed with peppers snd onions -- with the fried rice. We were glad to take home leftovers! They gave us a free dessert as we left! We wandered the aisles of the bustling Asian market in the same plaza after lunch. We will definitely go back to Viet Kitchen! There are so many more dishes we want to try! read more

We have been big fans of Viet kitchen since we had their food couple months ago. Every time we ate here we left with a satisfied tummy and happy mood. This visit they presented a seafood special menu. We picked a luxury dish- abalone. It got very generous abalone portion, tender and meaty in a flavorful sauce- two thumbs up. Mango salad was very good with fresh ingredients, right amount of dressing, peanut, herbs and shrimp chip garnish. It was a light and refreshing dish . The Viet chicken wings was our all time favorite- meaty wings fried to crunchy outside, tender and juicy inside, so good. We also liked the grilled pork stir-fry noodle. The pork was so tasty even the picky eater devoured the whole plate. The special drinks and desserts were outstanding. Kudos to their talented chef and their polite, attentive wait staff. No need to max out the credit card to enjoy an awesome meal like this. That's another positive point for this place. read more

One of the better Vietnamese restaurants that I've been to in Tampa. Our server (I didn't catch her name) was really sweet and offered a better lunch option than what I initially ordered which added more on my plate. She was very attentive and checked on us a few times. Pretty good portion sized meals. Both our meals were packed with flavor and delicious. Friendly atmosphere and interior is modern and clean. It would've been 5 stars, but we got boba tea and it was the jelly, instead of boba. Not what we ordered though. Overall....it's a great place to eat! We would definitely come back. read more

I was recommended this place by a buddy that touted that the pho broth here was made with actual bones and less of the fillers that other places may have. I have yet to even find out because at this time it's been 25 minutes since I was directed where to sit down and aside from the menus given no one has came over to take my order. I'm not non-southeast-Asian-looking foreigner so this isn't a racial thing although let's be honest this place is probably super racist; so I will chalk it up to the laziest blind staff ever because the place down the street would have had my order in two minutes of me. They literally just came over at 26 minutes and asked if no one took my order... how do you not know who hasn't had their order taken? Look if they still have a menu. That's pretty simple read more

I have been to this location many different times under different owners. My boy toy recommended me this place because he is from mien tay. I was hesitant at first because my family is from mien trung. My family decided that we will give this place a try. Walked in and was pleasantly surprised at the updates. (The previous owners just threw in tables and made it feel like a college student's place.). The tables and chairs were newer and was very comfortable. It still had the same floor plan, but it felt more spacious, more inviting, more welcoming. The owner, I assumed, greeted us warmly, and sat us quickly. We ordered cha gio, canh gai chien, pho, com chien, bun thit nuong, and 5 different specialty drinks. The food is good. I love the presentation. It had a newer background hint of tumeric or cumin in the food. Everything was seasoned well. The wait staff was excellent and very attentive. The caphe sua da had a coconutty taste. I don't know if it was just me, but I enjoyed it very much. It was sweet, so if you don't like sweet, ask for it to be less sweet. Will definately be back soon. read more
