We had lunch at Hu Tieu My Tho today and I thought the food was delicious. When it comes to…read moreVietnamese food in metro Atlanta, I think this restaurant is among the better options and my Asian/Vietnamese foodie friends generally agree. Where this place lacks - at least in our experience today - is in service and ambiance (even by casual Vietnamese restaurant standards). Hu Tieu My Tho opened in October 2019 and is located in the popular Hong Kong Supermarket shopping center on Jimmy Carter Blvd, near I-85 exit 99. Locals know this as the hub for the Vietnamese community in Atlanta. On weekends and holidays, it can get crowded. The restaurant name comes from the Vietnamese dish "hu tieu," which is a clear rice noodle dish, and "My Tho," which is the specific southern city in Vietnam where this style of cuisine was perfected. This is not a pho restaurant. Instead, this place specializes in both hu tieu and "mi" (egg noodles) as well as other dishes like Vietnamese steak and eggs. It's fairly unique, which is a big part of the draw and appeal. Here's what three of us had: A1. Goi Cuon (2 for $5.50) x2 - spring rolls with shrimp and pork A3. Cha Gio (2 for $5.25) - fried egg rolls D15. Ca Phe Sua Da ($5.99) - Vietnamese coffee H3. Hu Tieu My Tho Dac Biet ($15.50) - House Special Rice Noodle Soup - char siu, crab, fish ball, pork liver, pork heart, ground pork, quail eggs, bone-on pork shank H6. Hu Tieu Nam Vang ($14.50) - Phnom Penh-style Rice Noodle Soup - char siu, shrimp, pork liver, pork heart, ground pork, quail egg, squid H10. Hu Tieu Bo Kho ($14.99) - Beef Stew Rice Noodle Soup - round and flank beef, carrots M5. Mi Hoanh Thanh ($14.50) - Wonton with Egg Noodle Soup - char siu, wontons Everything was fresh and tasty. When it comes to the hu tieu, the restaurant gives you the option of soft or firm noodle texture. In addition, you can get dishes "dry" (no soup) or with soup. If it's your first time, you should try the traditional way with soup. I really like the variety of hu tieu and mi offered here; for example, my friend likes the Phnom Penh-style noodle soup, which is Cambodian. Overall, I found the food to be solid all around. After we were initially seated and served, the staff never checked on us again. I think this was partly because they were busy. I noticed at least two other tables having the same problem we did -- having to flag down a server. As for ambiance, seating was tight. I actually refrained from ordering an extra dish because of the lack of table space. And, while not uncommon for Vietnamese restaurants, multiple tables weren't immediately cleaned. Also, the men's restroom was dirty. I'd like to return and try one of the steak and egg dishes; for example S1. Chao Xiu Mai ($15.99), S2. Banh Mi Chao Dac Biet ($18.99), or S3. Chao Bo Steak / Bo Xao ($16.75).

She recommended that I try - Hu Tieu Nam Vang or the Hu Tieu My Tho - I got the dark chicken rice noodle. I did a to go order. If you online there is no translation for the menu so I went there for translation. The menus in the store have English description and the guy at the register was helpful in answering my questions. I ended up trying dark chicken noodle soup because I wasn't brave enough yet for intestines etc. I shared my order with my 9 year old and were very pleased. The broth was well seasoned. It had lots of flavor and it wasn't salty. I asked for some sauces and they gave it to me with my order. It was so good and filling. I will definitely be back to try more soups and other dishes. This place is located in the plaza of the Hong Kong supermarket. Parking was pretty simple but it was full. Inside was quiet and there were very nice Christmas decorations. It's a very casual place.

For this trip I picked up the Wow Banh Mi and the Bbq Pork Banh Mi with a side of Pork Paste Spring…read moreRoll and a side of soup. It's very rare that I say to myself in excitement that that was a good sandwich and this was it. After eating the BBQ Pork, I was impressed. The bread was a bit crunchy and falling apart, but the contents within was flavorful and on point for a banh mi. 10/10 for this alone. The Wow Banh Mi was ok, the pork skin in the sandwich would be my only turn off. Everything was great. Perfect with the side of soup to moisten the bread. The pork paste roll is basically the texture of a sliced sausage within the spring roll. Maybe more like the texture of spam, but not spam. The sauce served alongside the rolls is what really makes the dish. I got my order to go, so the only interaction I had was placing the order with the waiter and ladies behind the counter and they were nice and very sweet. Overall, I think you should give this place a shot. Defiantly one of the better banh mi placed with reasonable pricing.

With the temperature dropping, it's officially pho season! I stopped by WoW Banh Mi for their lunch…read morespecial -- you get a classic banh mi and a medium pho, and let me tell you, the pho portion was huge! Definitely worth it for the price. I also grabbed a Vietnamese iced coffee, and after one sip... the caffeine hit immediately It was strong (in the best way), so I had to sip slow. To balance it out, I tried the Kumquat Peach Tea. It was a little sweet for my taste, but once I diluted it with sparkling water at home, it was perfect. Overall, WoW Banh Mi serves authentic, flavorful Vietnamese dishes with generous portions and a great menu selection. Can't wait to go back and try more!

The spring rolls came with a sweet peanut sauce but I would say not much meat in the rolls as I really could only taste the mint. The pho broth was sweet and pretty flavorful. Unfortunately they messed up my order I ordered a small but was given the regular. Would have still preferred small cause the noodles were pretty filling. The noodles were thick and pretty good! I got meatballs and tripe in my order but it was definitely lacking some tripe. The service was also okay, we were never checked up on or given refills on water. Overall, I enjoy the noodle texture but definitely a miss this time round.

I've been hearing about this place for years, and I finally was able to try it. And all I have to…read moresay is I regret not visiting this place sooner! The food is AMAZING. I've never had anything like it. We ordered the sample platter and a bowl of the crispy chicken skin. It didn't come with sticky rice, so we ordered each person that as well. The sample platter was the way to go since I don't have much experience with this cuisine! However, I will say that the depth in the flavors was perfect. In my opinion, everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection! I mean, imagine this: it was so good we ordered another one of the crispy chicken skins. But then we ended up ordering extra papaya salad as well. In short, the food was so good we needed more. I would come back here again, and I highly recommend it. If you are visiting the metro area of Atlanta, this restaurant is a MUST.

The pork belly and steak dishes made 3 of us sick unfortunately…read more The pork belly was very tasty ofc. The steak was tender but saltless and the sauce with it didn't really add anything but mellow sweetness. The fried egg-rice was interesting but also saltless so I only liked it with the pork belly and the pork belly dipping sauce. (no salt on the table for me to add) The place was empty except the Ubereats drivers talking super loudly on the phone for 15min at a time, kinda ruined half of the dinner; it was so abrasive at a shouting level. Waitresses were nice but rarely saw them to be able to ask for anything. When they did come by, I was already trying to get out asap. I first tried this place back in Doraville and wanted to support them, but I can't stretch my ignorance that far to be ok getting sick from $50 of dinner, 18% tip for being handed a plate and disappear, and the mood killing loud talking of delivery drivers coming in and out turning this Michelin Guide "Inspectors' Favorite" venue into a DMV/gas station ambiance. Additionally, the owner or whoever runs their social media has been chewing people out on Google reviews. Some of the complaints seem legit and some of their responses are giving petty mean-girl. Just makes me not want to go back there even more.

Welp....16 dollars for this plate. No extra lettuce, no rice paper rolls, no extra leafy veggies…read more The meat wasn't cooked to order, it's premade and warmed through. Lettuce was a little wilted, but the sprouts had been snipped and were decently fresh in terms of crispness and taste. I will give it to them, none of the noodles stuck together. I was able to pull and pick up each section individually. Side note, they have cups of pre-poured water sitting around where people and employees walk by them constantly. If that's a deal breaker for you-keep that in mind. Not coming back....unless everyone else sells out of Pho or closes their doors

BUT, this should not dismay you from trying their food since it was pretty good! We ordered the grilled pork fresh spring rolls - the grilled pork was super flavorful and the peanut sauce it was served with complemented each bite.. I got a medium bowl of pho with well done brisket and flank (#9). I felt like the broth could've used a bit more flavor as it tasted a bit watered down for me, but I did love that it had tons of meat and right amount of noodles! The waiter doesn't bring you your check either. You just walk to the counter, tell them your table number and you pay there and then.

We found Com Ga because I love viet food and they had the traditional dishes we loved. It was weird late lunch hour so it was quiet. There was a young girl working and she was so cute and so friendly. I ordered the hu tieu soup with white meat and my bf ordered the same thing but with egg noodles and both dark and white meat. We also ordered a side of banh khot which we didn't finish but I packed nicely in my backpack to fly home with us. Definitely the soup hit the spot and warmed my soul.

Social media never fails especially when a local foodie account features this place, you know you…read morehad to try it. Off rip, this is across the street from the DICKs/PetSmart plaza just off Peachtree Pkwy in Peachtree Corners. It's a tiny little plaza so don't miss the road off Peachtree Pkwy or else you will miss it entirely and double back. If you come to LA Fitness, you've gone too far! Let's start with the interior It is spacious! The whole restaurant uses the corner suite of the building entirely and curved the whole place to create this decently expansive interior that looks to seat roughly 100 heads. The decor is very homely... almost like a Vietnamese Hobby Lobby threw up in the place... that's not a dig! It's a very welcoming environment. Between the deer head and the Saigon-esque decor, it's a welcoming joint! The service is basic. You get sat. You look at the menu. You order. They bring out the fixins'. You eat. You pay. You leave. I got one refill during my 45 eating time.. The food! Had to order the pho because... it's the most basic standard thing to gauge any all around Viet joint. The pho is the standard that tells you if the place is good. I will say, this place has a far richer, deeper broth. Plus it's fattier as I've noticed a slight sheen to my lips after slurping this broth down. The broth had less cinnamon and more corriander/cardamom forward flavor than other places. It's not a bad thing, just far different than the other places that has a more pronounced cinnamon forward flavor to the broth. This one has more depth and has a far richer taste to it. I do appreciate that they err on the side of serving tendon and tripe in their P10. And the XL is definitely an XL. The noodles did come out stuck together but the broth did take care of. I was a little disappointed that they had to opt with lemons instead of the traditional limes and they did not have basil at my visit. Maybe next time they will when I visit because I will have to make a visit again just to try the pho to make sure it's not a one off but that they stay consistent. Overall this place is comparable to some of the popular ones in and around the Norcross/Duluth area. The prices are definitely comparable with this joint's XL being at $17.95, it's definitely comparable to other places, but the identities of the restaurants are different and this one has an interior that stands out above the rest. Definitely recommend!
