Nhu Thuy

Walking in they had a Studio Ghibli playlist going so I was pretty much sold simply on that comfort. lol Their menu is extensive, really clean restaurant and the food was really good. I got to try a duck dish that I’ve never had and they were very attentive when I requested things, great service. I’ll definitely be back to try the Mi Viet Tiem.

I had the Bun Bo Hue and my dining partner has the vegetarian pho. Both were good. The pho has a nice selection of veggies and a tasty broth. It was quite large. The bun bo hue was good though I would go for the famous duck soup dish everyone raves about. Overall the price was fantastic! Dinner for two for under $20.

Ive been a fan of this family run joint for years and will attest to the quality of their various South East Asian dishes. Their food is flavorful, well prepared, and they have easily some of the best vegetarian Vietnamese options in the region. My personal favorite dish is their Tom Yum which is loaded with seafood bits and bobs as well as veggies and plenty of chili oil. My significant other loves their vegetarian fresh roles and pho for a good old fashioned carb rush. In spite of my claiming favorites, I have worked my way around their menu and have found portions are generous and flavorful. Plus, the staff is friendly, and the service has always been fast. Just keep in mind, they prepare reasonably traditional Southeast Asian dishes so if the menu says duck blood and trip expect duck blood and tripe. If I could I would take away half a star away because the joint is a little run down as it is in an older building an is a bit dirty. As such, it not be the best fit for the less adventurous diner. For those who care, it reminds me of being a little boy in Westminster California spending my time after school in family restaurants 25 years ago. If you're of Vietnamese descent and of a certain age, this will be a hell of a nostalgia trip, and about as authentic as you get.
