"Turtle Tower returned to the Financial District in 2025, two years after closing their previous location. The same rich, soul-reviving chicken noodle soup made it over here, along with excellent bún thang and a standout vegan phở. While battling downtown office workers for a table during weekday lunch rushes is a rite of passage, dinner tends to be quieter and walk-in friendly. Either way, be sure to end on the pandan-infused waffle that comes with a slightly salty tuft of whipped cream." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
