Ngon - Review - Lower Greenville - Dallas - The Infatuation

"Ngon Vietnamese’s patio opens onto the sidewalk of Lower Greenville, East Dallas’s famous stretch of bars and restaurants, so you can sit back and watch the nightlife blur by while downing $8 Happy Hour wings. Ultra-crispy but tender under the skin, and splashed with Ngon’s house nước chấm sauce, these wings could be a soul-soothing meal all on their own. But you should branch out. Fried rice gets big bolts of crab and torn eggs, while the spring rolls come with bright ginger- or pineapple-spiked fish sauce dips. The bun bo hue—a giant jacuzzi of noodles and so-tender-it-melts beef in a glossy, spicy broth—is essential, and the cocktails match all the fire and spice. Get the Song Hong, a cranberry martini served in a glass rimmed with Tajin." - Nick Rallo
