Michelin-recommended Vietnamese fare featuring pho, wings, and BYOB
"If you love pho and want to expand your Vietnamese repertoire, Nam Phuong is the place to do just that. Their menu spans com, bun, pho, family-style dinners, and street food. Not only are their dishes mind-blowingly tasty, but their service is also blazingly fast. Go in, get stuffed." - Field UX
"Many people head to this popular Buford Highway restaurant to indulge in big bowls of pho or plates of shaking beef, but make sure to try the wings here. These crispy wings carry a zippy, funky flavor embedded in the meat with a bit of heat from the sweet chile sauce glaze. Wings come with a side of white rice and pickled vegetables. Beyond pho, there’s no shortage of solid choices on the menu at Nam Phuong. There’s also a location in Norcross. Michelin listed Nam Phuong as a recommended restaurant to try in its Atlanta dining guide, and it made Eater Atlanta’s Best Dishes We Ate roundup. There is a BYOB policy here, so you can bring a bottle of wine to pair with ginger beef or fried rice." - Michael Tran

"Don’t think too long about how wings marinated in Vietnamese fish sauce will taste, just order asap. There’s a zippy, funky flavor embedded in that meat, which gets crispy without the need for breading, yet still retains a shiny glaze from sweet chili sauce. The interior chew remains wonderfully moist. Wings come with a side of white rice and pickled vegetables, too. The restaurant has a BYOB policy on wine, so be sure to pair the wings with a nice syrah or lambrusco. There’s also a location in Norcross." - Mike Jordan
"Michelin-recommended Nam Phuong by chef and owner Du Nguyen and co-owner Hoa Phan on Buford Highway is an Atlanta staple for Vietnamese food. Known for its juicy, umami, and savory chicken wings marinated in fish sauce, the restaurant also serves large plates of ginger beef, fried rice, spring rolls, noodles, and piping hot bowls of pho. They have a BYOB policy, so it’s a great place to bring bottles of wine and pair them with sticky short ribs. There is a second location in Norcross. Best for: Pho, Vietnamese fare, and BYOB policy." - Eater Staff
