The 18 Best Vietnamese Restaurants In SF

"Don’t expect to order any phở at Anh Hong, which you’ll realize as soon as you see the small “No Pho!” sticker on the door. Instead, look to the bánh hỏi at this casual big group restaurant in the Outer Richmond. These make-your-own rolls combine fresh ingredients with just the right ratio of smoked meats and tangy sauce. They’re served with a heaping plate of mint, basil, bean sprouts, carrots, cucumbers, and loads of nước chấm. There are eight different fillings, but we like the grilled shrimp with a nice char and the slightly sweet grilled pork of the nem nướng the best. And make sure to also get the excellent bò tái chanh on your table. " - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
