CÔBA - Viet Kitchen & Ales

I was very skeptical to try this place because I have to eat gluten free due to having celiac disease. I was blown away at how amazing the service/staff, atmosphere, and food was! I informed the waiter that I was gluten free and he instantly removed the soy sauce from the table and brought me their house made gluten free soy sauce. 98% of their menu is gluten free and everything fried in the frier is gluten free. There is also a ton of vegetarian options. We ended up coming here twice on our trip to Seattle because it is THAT good! It’s about a 5 minute walk from the Climate Pledge stadium and they are opened late so this is a must after a hockey game. Some people have complained about the price but personally I would give my first born child to them just to eat their food.

This place was recommended by our Arthur Murray Dance Studio instructor, Joie. Friday nights dance and dinner date night in Seattle. We decided to order many small plates instead of an entree. Staff were friendly and the service was good. Worthy of a return visit.

Love the atmosphere and service was nice. We got their spicy beef soup and it was so delicious. Full of flavor and portions were great. We also order drinks from the bar and those were too aromatic to enjoy. Definitely will be checking their other food options in the future

Nah, pass, tried it once. We were downtown, looked around for a late lunch. A biker pointed to this place, Cô Ba (auntie #3), their sign faded, no space btw the 2 words, the sign didn't jump out as Việt Namese, it took second looks. Inside has great vibes. We decided on bar sitting for quick bite. Walking in, people's dishes drawn temptations. We ordered today's special cơm tấm sườn (broken rice ribs - $20) and phở ($20). We thought these dishes would be quick. Nope... the rice was dried and so the ribs, on sweet side, great presentation though, phở came out just warm, not authentic piping hot. It took time for the rare beef to cook, in the process, cool the broth some more. As an authentic Việt, who loves phở, loves Việt foods.. this didn't hit the mark, saddly priced high for a standard size bowl. Well, a point of no return. GL

CÔBA in Seattle’s Queen Anne neighborhood serves up a standout bowl of short rib pho that’s both comforting and indulgent. The broth is rich and aromatic, simmered to perfection, and the tender short rib adds a hearty depth that elevates the dish. Paired with fresh herbs and rice noodles, it’s a satisfying meal that warms you from the inside out. The restaurant’s modern yet cozy ambiance, combined with attentive service, makes for an enjoyable dining experience. Whether you’re a pho enthusiast or new to Vietnamese cuisine, CÔBA’s short rib pho is a must-try that showcases the best of traditional flavors.

Absolutely delicious! We ate here before boarding a cruise ship. We got the rib and steak (I think that’s what they called it) pho and the ribs were HUGE!

Pleasant basic atmosphere, friendly service, good food. The prawn fresh rolls were nice and fresh with a good peanut sauce. The mango salad had plenty of mango and lots of flavor and color with onions and red and green peppers, and a nice tangy sauce.

Pho broth was a little bland. There’s a good selection of different Vietnamese items but overall I’d rather go elsewhere for viet food.

I love the lunch specials at Coba!! You get the banh mi (the gluten free bun is off the charts good in my opinion) with broth and fries with some of the best dipping sauce I've ever had! It's always packed, but the service is still good and food comes out quickly. I love the vibe inside, too. I usually sit next to the window to people watch in lower Queen Anne. Can't wait to be back!

This Vietnamese restaurant is a good stop if you are in the area for a concert or event. It's a sport bar with lots of seatings and good for big groups. The decoration is quite nice. They have a variety of Viet dishes on the menu with different daily specials, ranging from banh mi, vermicelli bowls to rice plates. I got the daily special Com Tam which is a broken rice dishes, it comes with pork chop, shredded pork and baked egg cake. It also came with fish sauce which is on the sweeter side, my only complain was it was too little. It also came with soup on the side, which was salty but lacking flavor. Overall, the dish was quite good. It's on the pricier side for the value, but it is what I expected for the convenience of grabbing a quick bite before a show in the area. Service was alright, it was hard to get server's attention during the meal.

The food was delicious, the ambiance feels good, and the service is prompt and friendly. All good on these three fronts. But I'm docking a star because lunch for two was nearly $80 with tax and tip. My God, what's happened to Seattle?!?! My hubs and I both ordered the Ca Kho To (braised catfish) for $22 x 2. Crispy rolls were $11. 2 sides of rice was $3 x 2. (Why do I have to pay for rice?) With tax and tip, the total was $79.25. Sigh. I guess this is what Seattle prices are these days.

Fiance and I were hungry after wandering around Seattle Center. We were pleasantly surprised with everything. Upon walking in, we were warmly greeted and quickly seated. The vibe of the restaurant is modern yet incredibly chill. It's has just enough IG-worthy rizz without going overboard. We ordered some nuoc mam wings, salt and pepper tofu, and lemongrass pork vermicelli bowl. This was a delicious meal split between us two. Highly recommend! We'll definitely be back to try their pho.

I was excited to try this Vietnamese spot on a chilly, wet PNW evening. It was the perfect place for some hot soup to warm me up. Apparently there was a big concert going on nearby so it happened to be packed on a weeknight. Not sure if that is normal. Had a short 5-10 minute wait and then sat down at the counter. Our host checked on me and my dining partner once but then when we weren't ready to order, he took a long time to come back. I ended up getting the oxtail pho which was soo good. The meat was a bit fatty but tender and still on the bone. The broth was so flavorful I could have drank it. Very cozy and filling! I would definitely come here again, just maybe not on such a busy night!

Pretty solid pho in the area. It was easy to grab a table for a weeknight dinner and the food came out pretty fast. You scan a QR code to look at the menu and they come around and take your order. Beef pho: an ok amount of meat and noodles and you can taste the spices they use in the broth Oxtail pho: got five pieces of oxtail and the oxtail was perfectly tender and went well with the soup. Also comes with thinly sliced steak. I'd probably order the oxtail over the regular beef pho next time! Enough pho for one meal, so portions aren't that big here. Overall pretty tasty

Delicious chicken bahn mi but the accompanying fries were to die for. Absolutely finger licking good. Tried the calamari appetizer as well and it was delightful as well. A little on the pricier side, but overall would eat again.

I went here with my sister right before the SWEAT tour concert and it was a pretty close walk to climate pledge. It was really cold outside and this pho was perfect for the night! Mango mojito had a bit too much mint? leaves but other than that it had good flavor. It was a bit hectic and busy inside so service was a bit slow but understandably so.

This was a really yummy spot! We found this place after being disappointed by the Bite of Seattle event nearby, and ended up eating here at around 3pm. It was surprisingly really packed at this hour, so I think it speaks to the popularity of the place. I got the charred chicken vermicelli bowl, which was so delicious! The portion sizes were extremely generous, and there was a great amount of chicken, noodles, and veggies. The chicken was seasoned really well and nice and juicy. I also liked how they put green beans on the dish too! They were also so well seasoned and delicious. Of course the nuoc mam that accompanied it tied everything together. The ambiance inside is quite cool as well, and I'd definitely recommend this spot for some fresh and tasty viet food :)

Its a cute place with nice ambiance and service. Its a nice restaurant to try Vietnamese food and we loved the taste of the food.

I Went here for their"famous"drink Lychee Martini and it also when they have happy hour too. Lucky me. This place didn't disappoint me at all. We ordered some appetizers with the drinks and everything was so good. 10/10 They all go well together. We ordered the Crispy roll, Spicy Kimchi Calamari and Spicy Prawn Mango Salad. They all not spicy at all to me so dont worry if you think you cannot handle it. Crispy roll is very crispy and it goes well with their fish sauce. Mango salad very refreshing... the calamari was tasty. We also ordered "the Mint to be"drink which is made with Gin with guava and lychee...that one looks so good and tastes yummy too and very IG worth it. Service was pretty good. Definitely gonna come back

I dig the vibe of this place. It very much fits the downtown night life ambiance offering some authentic and non-authentic Vietnamese cuisine that caters to westerners pretty well. I definitely do like the authentic more so and wished the demographic draws more of the Vietnamese community in more, but hey, you can't choose your neighbors. Even though I only ate here briefly, I like it. The appetizer pupu platter was quite good even though it was all mostly fried food, but that's exact I ordered so can't complain I guess. Egg rolls were solid, fries were crispy, and so were the fried wontons. Never a fan of the crab rangoon though. Alcohol was solid and works. And wait staff were all running around being quite busy, so it's a lively restaurant that gets a lot of business. Very good. Will definitely need to come back and have a proper meal here next time around and give a more thorough review.

Food was fantastic, fresh, loved the extra veggies on the vermicelli. Service was also great.

We stopped here later at night (after 10pm) after our flight. It was busy but we were able to get a big table in the back. I was excited to try things I can't usually get in Austin. Banh khot - Loved this dish. Really crispy and had a good amount of coconut flavor. Pho Coba - My partner ordered this and we enjoyed it. Broth is on the sweeter side. They give a generous amount of meat and the rib was super tender. We did feel like there wasn't enough noodles though. It offset the balance for us. Service wasn't super attentive but the dishes came out in a timely manner. It was a little hard to hear due to the noise level.

Food was great - Pho had lots of flavor and soup was rich. Beef rib was also extremely tender and the temperature of pho was perfect (hot!). The fried calamari is large pieces of calamari and not the tiny rings - this was a nice surprise! Service was quick and friendly. Restaurant interior was clean and well kept. Seems like a fairly new spot or is looking to ramp up in popularity.

Food - I think the food for my meat-eating partner was probably a 4 star but my vegetarian pho was just an ok 3 stars. Service - they were really really understaffed it seemed. The service was really slow and I was glad we got there 2.5 hours before our show. That's also why I didn't give more stars. It took about 2 hours to be seated and eat and get our check. Ambiance - it's a cool little space and located very close to climate pledge. The decor was also lovely.

Solid Vietnamese restaurant in Queen Anne, very close to Seattle Center! I came here after watching a show at Climate Pledge. The service was very fast, we actually got our food before our drinks. The Mint to Be cocktail was delicious. It has lychee, guava, and Empress gin, so it was delightfully fruity without being too sweet. The Grilled Beef Short Rib Rice Plate came with a generous portion. I loved the picked vegetables that came with this dish, as well as the pho broth. Very well balanced! I will definitely be coming back, this is a great spot.

I can't speak to the food, because we never actually got served. But the service is terrible. We walked in for an early dinner tonight. Promptly greeted by the bartender. He's said that the only table available was right by the window in the sun. Bear in mind it was 90° today and Seattle is not prepared for this type of heat. I asked if there was another place I could sit that was out of the sun. The gentlemen gestured to a tall long table by the front door. The seating was barstool only and it was still quite hot by the door. I could see three tables open in the dining room, so I asked if I could sit at one of those, but he said those tables were not for parties of two, only seating for parties of two are the two places he already suggested. I said we would be happy to sit at the bar, but he said you're not allowed to sit at the bar. If you're eating food, that's for drinks only. Not thrilled, but I took the table by the door. While I was sitting there waiting for someone to serve us, I saw two parties of two and a single diner walk in and get seated at the tables I was told were for groups of 3 of four diners only. The single diner was drinking a coffee from outside. I saw all three of those tables get served before us, including the single diner who had his outside beverage. By the way, when we receded, we were told my man was not allowed to drink the coffee that he brought in from Starbucks. WTF??? Is this seriously how they run their business?? We left and went to a Korean Restaurant a couple blocks away that was quite good with fast friendly service and fresh delicious food.

Disappointed. We (me + 1) came to Côba around 5:30 PM on a Saturday afternoon. We were greeted by the bartender who, without looking, said there were no tables available in the dining area. We were given one option - sit at the high top table by the window or by the door. Reluctantly, because the sun was shining through and it was hot, we sat near the door, as it was the coolest option. I got up to use the restroom and there were three open tables. When I came back, the bartender came to the table to tell me no outside drinks are allowed (Starbucks coffee). No option to be reseated. Okay, no problem. I set my drink aside. Bartender leaves and we wait for 20 minutes. Four people working the floor. Nothing. Meanwhile, three different couples come in and they are seated in the main dining room. A solo guy behind me sitting at a four top, casually drinks his outside coffee, and orders. I get up to go to the bar to ask what is going on and a server casually walks my way. I share with him my gripes, and he goes on to make excuse after excuse on "why this and why that." I ask for the manager. He's THE manager. After I ask him to fix the issues, he walks away. Literally walks away, and we leave. They say there is a "Seattle Freeze" where locals are not friendly. That's okay, I'm not friendly sometimes too, but this is pure disrespect.

This is a great Vietnamese to try! We were by the space needle center and were craving Vietnamese food. We had to take the food to go since it was late. I had the grilled pork chop ($16) and it was pretty good. The pork was tasty and savory. It came with a lot of spinach/salad and I wish it came with more cucumber. Heads up, the restaurant serves only steamed rice and not broken rice which I was disappointed about. I really liked the ambiance. The light and setting was nicely done. It would be a nice date to have. I enjoyed the music they were playing as well. The service was good. The servers were helpful and the food was made in a timely manner

My wife and I come here on occasions. Very clean inside and the food is really good ! I personally like their mint seed lemonade. I love their beef short ribs

Food is good. Service is ok. Ambiance is fair. I would probably try something else or somewhere else next time I'm in town. Definitely not worth the hype

UPDATE! I was talked into going to this place for lunch, so I agreed. Online menu says $13 for a tofu bahn mi sandwich. QR code in restaurant says it's $16! It's the same price as any other meat bahn mi sandwich. This place just makes it so easy to NOT like them. $16 for tofu and bread and to not have an updated website?! $8 coffee. Yall are trippin!

I'm Vietnamese and had to give the Vietnamese food in Seattle a try. I gave the the soups dishes here a go and actually really enjoyed them. Beef Rib Pho - Soup broth was very flavorful and they come with a generous amount of meat for $18. I thought the flavors were on point and was quite satisfied with their recipe here. Rib was fall off the bone good. (4.5/5) Bun Bo Hue - I had low expectation on this but was surprised on how authentic the taste was. The only thing that was missing for me was the pork blood that I am used to but the beef combination that it comes with was pretty tender and delicious. Strong broth flavor as well. (4.5/5) The soup dishes seem to be good here and would totally recommend. Not sure what the prices for pho is here in Seattle but I felt it was quite reasonable for what I got. Service was okay, had to flag down when I wanted to order. Place is solid!

Walking distance to the Seattle center, space needle or climate pledge arena. Inside is spacious and cute. Looks like a fun restaurant and sports bar. Service is fast, attentive and friendly. Pho noodle portion is generous. Soup not salty. Taste Pretty good. Table, utensils, plates all feel clean.

CÔBA Viet Kitchen & Ales is conveniently located in Lower Queen Anne, within easy walking distance from Seattle Center. On this day, we finished a show there and walked here for a late dinner. The food overall is pretty good. I would skip the banh mi cuz they are ridiculously overpriced at $13 to $14. The entrees are much more reasonable. When we arrived, they were quite crowded, and they asked us to order from the counter and pay first. Later, I saw others received full normal table service. Kind of odd. The food was a a wait with the crowd plus the many takeout orders. The staff was reasonably fast. The place is new-looking and clean with Viet deco. I would say this place is a somewhat elevated experience, similar in tone to Tamarind Tree. The Food: Prawns Mango Salad, $15 - 4 Stars I rarely see a mango salad, so I of course tried it. It's very lightly dressed, and the under-ripe mango pieces made for a great salad base. Very refreshing and is a great light starter or a meal for the smaller appetite. Beef Short Rib Rice Plate, $18 - 5 Stars This is one of their most popular dishes. The beef ribs (sort of like kalbi) is nicely seasoned. On a budget, this combo makes a great standalone dish with protein, starch, veggies, and a soup. Highly recommend. Fish Sauce Wings, $12 - 4.5 Stars I don't recall the famous Mangosteen fish sauce wings much, but I do remember they were a bit smaller than these. These ones are big, crispy fried, and deliciously seasoned. At $12, I think the quantity is about right. Spicy Eggplant, $10 - 3.5 Stars A different take on the typical Chinese version, this one is also flavorful without swimming in oil or sauce. However, I wish it had more eggplant! I think the quantity of eggplant is the same as the sum of onions + bell peppers.

We thought this place looked really good so we decided to give it a try. I got the veggie pho and my boyfriend got lemon grass pork. The pho was flavorful and the lemongrass pork was pretty mediocre. However, towards the end of the meal... unfortunately, we found this in the jalapeños and one in my pho. Pretty gross considering it was towards the end of our meal :( Anyway, it's worth a try but I'd check the food before eating

A little love note for this place. I'm so grateful that they are open late, and that they have healthy vegetarian options. In particular, a recent take-out order was just fantastic! I ended up working late this week one night, and was thrilled to find that they were still open and available for takeout. I placed an order for vegetarian pho, and decided to try the spicy mango tofu salad. The melding of flavors in the salad just knocked my socks off. It's a little spicy, a little tangy, and hearty enough to be a meal on its own! I practically devoured it... Eating it so fast, that I don't have a great photo. (I'll share anyway.) Veggie pho was solid, and the tofu was fresh and tasty. Bonus: enoki mushrooms!!! They're gorgeous. Overall, definitely recommend this place. A little on the pricier side for Vietnamese, but as an earlier review were stated, feels elevated for sure.

I try to come here as often as I can when I am in Seattle because the food is excellent and the serving sizes are large. It's also a healthier choice than many alternatives in the area. My go-to orders are the chicken pho (add broccoli, carrots for some vitamins) and the tofu banh mi (comes with fries that are totally unhealthy but also delicious). There's often seating and the staff are wonderful.

If you are eating Vietnamese food in Queen Anne, I don't think you can expect to get the most authentic food, but that doesn't stop the food from tasting good. This restaurant is centrally located and is decently spacious. There was no wait on a Saturday evening for a group of 5. Service was average--we did have to wait a while for someone to come by when we wanted the check. For the food, I thought it was good but not amazing. Portions were decently sized. The curry rice had a decent amount of vegetables but the rice was kind of wet. The vermicelli with pork was flavored well too. I think it is a little pricey for what you get but I overall had a good experience. Note: they automatically charged 20% tip for a group of 5.

Honestly the food here is not bad. I tried the duck pho which I thought was unique and pretty tasty. But I definitely felt like the service is really lacking. It took an unreasonable amount of time to have someone take our order, get water and get the bill. Not sure if I would come back for that reason.

Ordered on Uber Eats and was very happy with my order especially considering it was take-out. Came warm, with all the condiments I had requested. Serving portions were plenty enough, lasted me a couple meals. Definitely will order again! @hungrycritic_ on Instagram!

Another delicious meal at Coba! This time I had the Beef Pho, which was fantastic, so flavorful. My husband had the Roasted Chicken Pho, with a chicken leg in it. The leg was chopped into pieces, but was still tedious to eat with chopsticks! He really liked it, I thought it was crazy to put chicken with bones in a soup. The food here is all so good, if only the service matched. We have never had anyone check on us, and always have to flag someone down for the check. It's noisy, and the tables are very close together. Really the best is takeout, so you get the good food, and serve yourself.

Came in for lunch on a Thursday and the place filled up pretty quick! I enjoyed the food and would say this is a good Vietnamese spot in the Queen Anne area. It'll satisfy your cravings but isn't a place I would recommend to my friends. Something to keep in mind: the fish sauce was sweeter than most places (not sure if it was just this batch). Chicken Salad ($13) - Not the authentic chicken salad I imagined but was still pretty good. Fish sauce was already drizzled all over so get this only if you're a fan of it. Banh Khot CoBa ($17) - I loved the amount of lettuce and mints they give you. The mini "cakes" are very crispy. Bun Bo Hue ($17) - The soup was flavorful. Passionfruit Lemonade ($6) - The passionfruit seeds are larger than what I'm used to (if you don't swallow them whole then it might become tedious) and the drink was very sweet. I tried to dilute it by adding water but it was still too sweet.

Originally from Vietnam, I was excited for the Vietnamese food scene in Seattle. Bonus point is that this place opens late and the hot bowl of soup hit super different after a long hike. Unfortunately, everything here was seasoned very sweet for my taste. - Bun Bo Hue: 3/5. Not as flavorful as a Bun Bo Hue should be. It is kind of spicy but the noodles were slightly too soft. - Banh Khot: 3/5. The Banh Khot was crispy with strong coconut flavor. Fish sauce is way too sweet. - Co Ba Pho: 3.5/5. The beef rib was very tender and tasty. Huge portion too. The flavor isn't as deep but overall a good pho. - Com Tam: 2.5/5. Again, too sweet! The broken rice is pretty authentic but everything else on the plate was relatively mediocre. The pork chop is tender but I do think the fish sauce requires more acidity. Everything was seasoned too sweet. The place is really cute though! I like the decorations and the atmosphere. Service was pretty quick and efficient.

One of my fav pho places in Seattle!! I think I had a combination pho, it had meatballs, brisket and the short rib. Was super yummy and the meat was super tender. We also had a sampler plate which was ok. I got a Vietnamese iced coffee to go without ice so I could have it the next day and it was just as good! Will be returning.

The yam fries are insanely delicious! I've never had anything like it before and the sauce was the perfect pairing. The coba pho had lots of meat, and the broth was very flavorful. Personally, I think the broth could have used slightly more acidity, so I'm going to give it a 7.5/10. Overall, the food, staff, and background music were great, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great Vietnamese food!

Another terrible meal. At this point I think it's safe to say CÔBA is no longer the restaurant I initially thought it was. I really wanted Vietnamese food and it was late so I only really had a few choices so I went with coba. But I will not make the mistake of assuming the food might be better this time around, again. I ordered the lemongrass bun with steak and the steak texture was indistinguishable from a piece of squid. I'm not exaggerating it tasted like chewing on a piece of rubber it was an inedible. In addition to that the noodles were over cooked and the lemongrass flavor was hard to find anywhere. I cannot recommend unless it's for the crispy rolls. Those are consistently good.

I ordered oxtail and steak pho along with crispy rolls as my appetizer. The oxtail was super tender and fell right off the bone. They gave a good portion of meat. I like the noodles are slightly smaller or thinner. The soup had good flavor but it got salty halfway through, even adding the lime juice didn't help. I like the crisp of the rolls and flavorful fillings. I was dining by myself so I sat by the windows. The bar top/table where I was sitting was super sticky. The server came to get my order then never checked on me until they gave me the check. I would've appreciated more water and extra napkins.

Landed at Coba by accident. We intended to go to another restaurant before a concert we attended at Climate Pledge. When we walked in the place was not full but we could easily tell they were short staffed or couldn't handle the rush. Lots of restaurants in the area were full due to the concert. We were in a group of 6. We used their kiosk they have by the main door. We were seated within 10 minutes. Customer service was ok. Like I said before they were overwhelmed. I noticed they had a ton of to go orders piling up on their shelves. We only noticed 2 servers with 1 bartender. Food options are wonderful. Everything you would crave. We ordered our food and drinks and didn't have to wait long for our food. Food was absolutely delicious. Flavors were just perfection!!! I could rave about their food alll day. We never got our drinks though. We had finished our food and never got our drinks. The bartender was chatting it up with the people sitting at the bar. He was very slow in making drinks which would explain why we never got our drinks. It's okay. Lucky for us our food was delicious. The broth that came with our sandwiches was addicting. My advice to the restaurant would be to get a calendar with all the date that the arena has events and add more staff on those days to avoid these issues. I know we were not the only ones looking around. We have a few more events in the next months at the arena and we will be going back for the food. My husband even works close by and mentioned he will get lunch here soon. Would have given the 5 stars easily if we would have gotten our drinks. We recommend you give this place a try. You will not regret it.

Stopped in for dinner before seeing a screening and overall, decent Vietnamese at a reasonable price. The fried rolls were somewhat forgettable but the lettuce wraps were tangy and crunchy and worth splitting an order with someone. The rib plate was good, loved the addition of the kimchi and the fresh veg with everything. I did notice almost everyone else was getting pho so maybe next time I'll have to try that.

If you're looking for a go to Asian eatery in lower Queen Anne and don't want to drive around, Coba it is. Parking is a b in the Mercer mess, and it sucks being late to your event at mccaw hall or climate pledge. Both are walkable from here. You might most likely even make it for coba happy hour. We ordered the bun Bo hue, green beans, larb, chicken wings fish sauce flavor, shrimp papaya salad, and Vietnamese iced coffee. Bun Bo hue lacked some of the flavors and our dishes were way sweeter than what Vietnamese cuisine should be, so order and receive accordingly. Restaurant will be packed, restrooms are clean and there are two, waitstaff will be busy so just remind them politely for check or etc.

Probably your best option for eating around this immediate Queen Anne area if you were to stop by Seattle Center, Climate Pledge for a hockey game or concert, or visit the space needle and don't want to dine there as the food is pretty expensive and mediocre. Elevated Vietnamese, which I know can turn some people off automatically thinking it won't be authentic, but as a Vietnamese American, I don't like how people always associate us with being the cheap option like we always have to stay low tier forever, but food was good and they have your standard items like pho, rice plates, vermicelli bowls, and banh mi's on the menu. The banh mi's comes with a side of fries and pho broth. I was quite surprise that this place serves salty lemonade, it's one of my favorite childhood drink and literally no where serves it as it takes forever to ferment the lemons for it. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:)

One of the best Vietnamese restaurants in Seattle! I took a friend here while she was visiting the city, and both she and I were wowed by our food. The service was fast, though we never felt rushed, even though we came in one hour before closing. We were mindful of the staff's hours and ate quickly. I'd recommend any of the noodle dishes, especially the lemongrass chicken. Parking around here is a bit tough, so do allot for that.

The veggie and tofu pho here is sooooo good! I love the assortment of veggies and the amount of tofu they put in is incredible! Servings are also huge, I ate my pho for both lunch and dinner. At first glance, I thought $17 was too much to pay for a tofu pho but based on portion size I think it's reasonable. Service was okay when I went. I was seated right away which was great but the food did take a while to come out compared to other pho places I've been to. Especially considering there wasn't that many people in the restaurant and I only got a tofu pho. Small, little joint in uptown. Doesn't look like much from the outside but the inside is quite nice!

Every time I'm traveling to new area, I'd always want to find new Vietnamese restaurants. This CôBa restaurant was a top pick. I got charred lemongrass pork dried noodles dish. The grilled lemongrass pork flavor was rich and delicious. Don't forget the Vietnamese iced coffee was hit on spot.

Found this place on Yelp as it was walking distance from our hotel. Price is on the more expensive side I've had for Vietnamese food but it was worth it. The Pork Chop and Rice was really tasty and had good flavors as well as the short rib! My dad said he like the Phó so I guess that's a W! The vibe is really loud and I felt like we were yelling the whole time. It's more of Vietnamese Gastro Pub feel to it as they have a full bar and speciality drinks.

Best Vietnamese food we've ever had. Food was excellent, a huge step up from the strip mall type joints. The atmosphere was on point, and the service was exceptional. We will certainly be back!

I was very excited to try this spot because of all the good reviews, but I was a bit disappointed. We started with the chicken wraps which came out kind of cold and had a bit of an old taste to it. Next we ordered the vermicelli noodle bowl with lemongrass pork, which was pretty good. I always ask for a side of peanut sauce with this type of bowl, but the peanut sauce tasted very watered down. The pork chop rice plate was also pretty decent as the pork was fresh and well seasoned. The beef pho lacked a lot of flavor. And the chicken wings and fries were both decent as well. The service wasn't great but I think they may have been understaffed. Overall, it was an ok experience with ok food.
