Tasty, good quality, authentic, family-owned Vietnamese eatery conveniently located in busy west Nashville. Whether dining in or taking out, you can expect consistent results. Remember to bring cash with you, no other accepted forms of payment. Service style is right down to business and quick, no time for chit chat. My favorite Vietnamese dishes include pho and bun thit nuong and VN pho & deli delivers on both! In my opinion, they use fresher and higher quality ingredients compared to other local comparable spots, especially when it comes to the proteins. They also make and jar/sell their own chili oil - a spicy treat! On a rainy day, a meal from here is near the top of my priority list! read more

VN Pho & Deli - Rare beef pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Since I'm doing a lot of Ramen and Pho reviews, I will tell you that this is also a very great place for Pho! EXPECT A LINE (not short) It's a really fun, extensive menu and I've tried many things aside from the Pho all of which have been great It's a cash only deal and the line is usually long around lunchtime so be prepared for quite a wait if you want to dine in This one is very close to my house an extremely popular ~ worth the wait if you have time and quite a deal with slightly lower prices than my favorite Pho restaurant (which is just a couple minutes up the road) My favorite Pho restaurant has no lines typically and that makes it a very convenient place to grab a quick bowl of Pho That said ...the quality at VN Pho is exceptional and the menu is a blast read more

Excellent Pho, great Vietnamese iced coffee. Quick, friendly service and a truly authentic neighborhood feel--lots of Vietnamese being spoken and older gentlemen sitting out front conversing for the sake of conversing. Not many tables but worth a wait if you're in the area. Great food, friendly atmosphere, and definitely worth a visit. We will be back to try more of the menu. Cash only, so come prepared! read more

Serving Nashville since 2012, VN Pho has gained an impressive reputation as one of the most authentic Vietnamese restaurants in Nashville. I've been meaning to get up to the west side for over a decade just to try it! And if you didn't know this cash-only spot in the White Bridge area was tucked into a strip mall, you might drive right past. The storefront doesn't even face Charlotte Pike. But location be damned, Nashvillians will seek out the best food and put it on Yelp! I was fooled by iIts unremarkable façade, wondering if it would be another 4.4-star experience that I'd round down to a solid four on Yelp. It happens all too often, places falling just shy of earning a perfect five stars reserved for only the best eateries. Because of its popularity, even off-peak hours on a Sunday afternoon are bustling with takeout orders, diners, and competitive jostling for one of the few parking spots. But enter this culinary sanctuary and you'll be treated to some of Middle Tennessee's finest Asian food! Every detail is purposefully thought out, from the efficiency of the staff who all pitch in to the metal cups that keep your water ice cold! My shrimp egg rolls, essentially wrapped shrimp that's been deep fried, are amazing! And the pork ribs are the best I've had since dining in Vietnam a few summers ago! This is truly an incredible experience, I finally understand the hype and the five-star review is well deserved! read more

This is our favorite Vietnamese place in Nashville. We go here on Sundays for our Pho Sunday whenever we're in Nashville. Their service is quick, and the place is clean. What to know before you go: this is a cash only place. The parking lot is extremely limited, so try to go before it gets crowded. Parking is what takes one star off. Their pho is great, especially for Nashville pho. If you're someone who needs to eat pickled sliced onions like me, this place doesn't have them. No pho place in Nashville does. Sad, sad! read more

VN Pho is always one of the best spots every time I visit. The food is consistently delicious and the service is always great. This time I ordered the duck noodle soup, and it was so good! The broth was rich and flavorful, and the duck was cooked perfectly. The service and overall experience were excellent as always. If you're looking for great Vietnamese food, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend! Best atmosphere and clean. read more

Stopped in for a visit based on Reddit recommendations. Cash only and I'd certainly visit again. On a slightly drizzly Sunday afternoon, my friend and I had no trouble getting a table. I tried the mi vit tiem ($16.5) pork broth and roast duck soup because it was their Sunday special. I have nothing to compare this dish to, but it was delicious. The broth was just the right amount of savory, the shiitake mushrooms added an extra layer of flavor, and the roast duck was juicy, flavorful, and still held its own in an already flavor-packed bowl. I was delighted to see that they had bot chien ($13), fried rice cakes with egg. It's a food my grandma used to make for me. My personal preference is for a crispier rice cake, but these did the job. I tried my friend's pho and didn't like it as much, but she felt the same way about my noodles, so I'd love to come back and try other dishes next time I pass through Nashville. read more

Met up with my son here to have lunch. Was really not sure what to try as they had lots of different options. Ultimately, we decided to both have the Bun Bo Hue. Needless to say... definitely delicious. The service was very friendly and it did not take too long to prepare our meal. The ambiance is very casual and laid back. Of note...there is not a lot of parking. The establishment is cash only and there is an ATM inside to get cash if you need to for a nominal fee. read more

Great Pho soup in a not so great part of town. Found this little hidden spot via Yelp. The broth was very flavorful and the service was great. The restaurant was clean, but the ambiance was nothing over the top. I will say that it is a hard business to find as it is in the far back of a strip mall and very little parking (we had to actually park next door). Also, they only accept cash. read more

We came here wanting to order banh mi to go after eating Korean. However due to being labor day their banh mi sandwiches were all gone. We were told the banh mi was being made in house. We ended up getting their avocado smoothie and Vietnamese ice coffee. Their drinks were decently price. We definitely would come back here on our next visit to try their banh mi sandwiches. The staffs were nice. read more

Finally had an opportunity to try out VN Pho. Customer service was great. The restaurant is small, but that is okay the wait won't be long. The food comes out relatively fast but it is fresh. I had flank steak Pho, due to them being out of chicken for the evening which i'm glad I was able to try something different. They have multiple offerings on the menu, but pho just always hits the spot. My boyfriend had the egg rolls which he liked and he had the pho with 5 meats included, he also enjoyed that. I do recommend getting the red Thai tea and the passion fruit juice. Both were great compliments to our meal. Just remember this a cash only restaurant so be prepared. If not they have an atm on property. My only suggestion is if you drive parking is slim. So you may have to walk or take an uber. Either way I know you will love this local business. read more

Very nice Vietnamese restaurant. The Bahn Mi was huge and satisfying. We had tofu spring rolls, yum, tofu Bun bowl and a beef Pho. Everything was great. Fresh. The staff was very attentive, the place is very busy and extremely clean. We will be back! Thank you. Important to know, they take only cash (it is inexpensive but they also have an ATM machine in there) and the parking lot is small, however people are coming and going quickly, don't worry if you have to wait a few minutes. read more

The Bun Bo Hue has a nice rich broth with a hint of spice and lemongrass flavor adding the extra veggies adds to the dish and a squeeze of lime. If you want it more spicy they have condiments on the table for adjustments. The banh mi was super soft and great outside crunchy texture for that bite. The meat and veggies were fresh and flavorful. It's a big spacious restaurant and gets busy so come early if you want to eat well. read more

VN Deli never disappoints. The Pho and Hu Tieu are the best Vietnamese soups in Nashville; flavorful, spiced, seasoned to authentic Vietnamese cuisine. Still a family-owned and operated restaurant with the most attentive, kind staff and simple, comfortable, quiet spot to enjoy lunch/dinner. I am a repeat customer since discovering VN in 2018. Will continue long after they move to Mt. Juliet in 2026. read more

They were all wonderful. The pho broth was definitely something that will keep you coming back. read more

I really came in here hoping to try their Bahn Mi, but it turns out they were out of bread. The place was fairly busy and service didn't slow because of that. We started with the spring rolls which had a delicious warm peanut sauce. The shrimp to lettuce ratio was just right. I had the pork bun Bowl, which had egg rolls, pork, noodles, and the pickled vegetables. The egg rolls are just okay. They weren't amazing compared to others. The bowl itself was delicious, with a nice house sweetened fish sauce that brought lots of flavor. The pork was tender and the right amount of chew. The marinade was flavorful. They win for a delicious pork! Overall, I definitely want to come back when they have bread because I still wanna try their Bahn Mi. read more

One of the most Authentic Vietnamese food on charlotte pike! Cash only but that's how you know it's legit. Lots of seating. I got bun Bo hue which is spicy beef bone lemongrass soup and I crave it all the time now. It's a little spicy but that soup gives flavor every single bite! I always finish my bowl and drink all the soup because it's that good. The noodles pair well with the soup and it comes with fresh beef slices and some cooked beef, pork sausage, and pork bone. For the semi raw beef, you can just mix it in the soup if you want it cooked more. It comes with bean sprouts, basil leaves, and lime as toppings for the soup, definitely add them. So good, I'm literally thinking about when's the next time I'm going back as I'm writing this. On the side, definitely get some of VN pho's chili oil to dip the meat if you like spicy. The green Thai iced tea is somewhat new to the menu and it is AMAZING, must get!! You really taste that tea flavor and it's not too sweet at all. Bonus, it comes with green tea jelly and overall is so refreshing. read more

Solid Vietnamese spot serving up authentic pho, vermicelli dishes and rice plates. Lots of seating but very casual setting. Stopped by for lunch and got the shrimp roll with peanut sauce which was amazing and fresh. They were sold out of many options which was disappointing but ended up getting the rare steak pho. Broth had great flavor and everything tasted fresh! Service is slow/non existent. Its cash only and you pay at the counter when you are done. One of my favorite Vietnamese food spots I have found in Nashville. read more

BRING CASH, cash only but they do have ATM. It was okay, haven't found my favorite yet!

I love Vietnamese food! This place was great. I'm not a giant Vietnamese ice coffee fan but they probably had the best. We loved everything we ordered but my daughter was every impressed with their pork belly bao bun. Sadly they did not have my favorite banh xeo crepe dish anymore. The service was very helpful and attentive. The down side to them being good and busy is the parking! It was hard to fine a space with the limited parking. If you can find a space its definitely worth stopping in to eat. Warning- CASH only establishment. read more

VN Pho is a great hidden gem on Charlotte Pike for Vietnamese food! It is cash only, so make sure you get some cash before you come. One of the best noodle soups around town. I got the Bo Kho with noodles (there's an option with banh mi bread) and the broth was flavorful and rice. The beef was good and it is a great portion. It is a braised beef stew with some veggies. The egg noodles went well with the dish. For appetizers, I got the fresh spring roll with shrimp and pork. Very fresh and I love the peanut dipping sauce it comes with. I got the Vietnamese coffee and it was strong but not too sweet. It was really good if you like coffee. Chill vibes here and friendly staff! read more

YES! YES! YES! This is the best restaurant. We find ourselves going back so often. The half hen is to DIE FOR! The rice that comes with it is so flavorful and delicious. We also adore the pho- the broth is incredible and you can't go wrong with the different meat selections. We recently started the banh mi as well. Holy wow. The pâté inside is delightful and I personally love the bbq pork flavor. We also love to buy the chili oil, it's so good! Especially on the pho. The servers are all so nice and very helpful when telling you about the sauces and toppings. Overall, this is such a gem. The only thing that sucks is the parking! I hope they can do something about this or even relocate to a bigger space someday because they deserve it! read more
