Pan-Asian buffet, pho, pad thai, curries, and fried rice



























"If you’ve ever felt you couldn’t choose between one of Austin’s different excellent Asian cuisines, 888 Pan Asian Restaurant is for you. The East Riverside-Oltorf spot, about 12 minutes from The Concourse Project, offers a large menu across the spectrum of Vietnamese, Thai, and Chinese cuisines. If you need help narrowing the options down, the generous portions of soups and curries stand out here, especially the pho, which, besides the typical option of beef cuts or chicken, also comes with seafood like fish balls, squid, and scallops." - Lane Gillespie
"When we try to wear a lot of hats, we just come across looking silly, but 888 on East Oltorf manages to pull it off seamlessly. The menu is huge, spanning everything from Thai curries and chicken satay, to pho and fried rice. But when we come here, we usually go straight for the aptly labeled “Noodle Soup” section with a range of toppings and noodle types (egg or rice), in a light chicken and shrimp broth. There aren’t really any wrong combos here, but we’re especially fond of the egg noodles with roast duck." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion

"The East Riverside restaurant has giant bowls of soup, from tom kha to pho. Takeout orders can be placed over the phone; there are indoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury

"The couple's original restaurant, which helped establish their presence in the local dining scene; it is now operating under new management." - Erin Russell
