Hien Vuong Restaurant

Located in City Market. The food was delish. It came out very hot as you can see from the pic (steaming). The only thing for me was the price. The price from the menu must not be accurate. Idk how my two dishes pictured was a $60 check.

We stopped in while at river market this weekend and enjoyed it. The people there are warm and helpful. It was quiet, quaint, and the food was good. When we needed containers, the lady there packed it all away and bagged it for us.

My mom has been going to Hien Vuong for 27 years. It’s owned by the same people. I’m 21 years old, and we don’t live out here anymore. We drove the 5 hours back out to KC today and had to stop by. I loved it again like I always do. #2, #71, and #75 are menu staples for us because we’re pescatarians. Common complaints about this place are that the service isn’t peppy and they charge auto gratuity of a mere 15%. These people work hard and take pride in their food. It’s a pleasure to know them and their craft. I think people pass judgement on them sometimes because they don’t falsely inflate their mood for tips. If you’re looking at this review to figure out whether you want to go eat here- just go ahead and plug the address into your GPS. When you go up to pay, ask about the grandchildren photos and you can see the owner light up. This is a ramble and a half, but Ive stood by Hien Vuong for 21 years. I think everybody should try them at least once.

First It was our first time inside it looks alright not very clean . Second we had to wait over 30 minutes to get the food the lady who helped was very rude and unprofessional and lastly the food is not what it should be . The meat was old and also one of the plates was dirty from the bottom . I would not recommend sadly . Also prices are not what they have on the menu

Unfortunately, probably one of the worst pho places I've had in the area. Portions are small and overpriced. My regular size bowl was small. Their large size pho is as big as a regular size at other pho places. A 3 eggroll appetizer was $8.99. Spent $60 on just 2 pho bowls and 2 appetizers. The elderly lady (probably owner) that took our order told us she is going to automatically add 15% tip on our order. Um, okay. First time here and most likely my last.

Food was good…!!! Food was good but the lady serving the food made a whole scene about the tip, we spent over $100 on lunch and when we were paying we were leaving $6 of tip is not like we got refills or she constantly came to our table!!! She start making math in front of other customers that’s definitely the most uncomfortable moment for me we ended up giving her $11 dollars of tip but we definitely will never come back to that place, Tip is voluntary no body should be force to pay a tip that people don’t deserve!!! TERRIBLE she lost customers for $5 of tip!! Smart way to make Bussines

Portion sizes were smaller than what I anticipated from other pho places I’ve been to, however pho broth was super tasty! Deep fried shrimp was good however totally thought they were going to be the skewered shrimp for the price and description of it! Still the shrimp were crunchy and sauce was good!

Unfortunately, very disappointed with the experience. My main criticism is how salty ALL the dishes were (both soups and noodle ones). Honestly, at times it was almost inedible it was SO salty. You always expect a little extra salt when you get food out in places but this was just unpleasant. My second criticism was that you barely get any of the “proteins” in your dishes. Someone in our table got the dumpling and pork soup and it came with ONE dumpling; one! And two others got shrimp dishes that came with one/two shrimps, respectively. You’re not paying cheap either, dishes run between $10-12 - you should absolutely be getting a bit more bang for your buck. It feels a bit like we’re being ripped off if I’m being honest - and as a customer, it’s a pretty miserable feeling.
