Het Say Vietnamese Kitchen - Austin

I haven't lived in this neighborhood for a while, but I was in the area so I had to stop by for the banh mi and tofu bao. This restaurant offers fantastic choices for vegetarians and has a cozy atmosphere that is perfect for a rainy day. Don't forget to try the Vietnamese coffee, it's a must-have!

I wasn't expecting much from this place, but the food is surprisingly delicious. I have been back multiple times since my first visit. The prices are reasonable and the portions are generous. The pho is almost as good as Elizabeth St Cafe.

I was not disappointed! The pork belly bao buns, lemongrass beef bahn mi, and Singaporean pork with noodles were all delicious. I can't wait to go back already.

Great Pho, Great Price. My go to whenever I want amazing soup!

After dining in the restaurant and also getting takeout, I can confidently say that this Vietnamese restaurant is a solid 4+ in my opinion (and I'm not Vietnamese). Every dish we tried, from the appetizer spring rolls and dumplings, to the pork vermicelli, to the tofu Pad Thai for my vegetarian daughter, to their house specials (the tumeric chicken was flavorful), to the pork lemongrass bahn mi I had tonight, were all fantastic. What really stood out to me was the baguette they used for the bahn mi sandwich - it was the perfect French/Vietnamese bread that made the sandwich exceptional. If they are paying attention to that level of detail, you can tell they are trying their best. I will definitely be coming back.
