The 16 Best Vietnamese Restaurants In NYC

"This large spot in Chinatown is casual enough for a solo lunch or a spur-of-the-moment group meal. The 150-plus dishes on the menu might seem overwhelming, but just know that no matter what you order, you’re going to have a good meal. And if you order the grilled pork bánh mì, you’re going to have a great one. And then there's also the crunchy chả giò filled with ground pork that’s somehow as rich and intense as pâté, and the bun cha, which comes with more fantastic pork and sticky vermicelli that soaks up all the broth. The best part: we’ve never had to wait for a table here." - sonal shah, willa moore, will hartman, arden shore, carlo mantuano
