“During a rainy day I ordered oxtail pho. It was so good we know we had to make a lunch date to have it freshly made. My daughters got the Vietnamese coffee, oxtail, chicken, and pork & shrimp pho w/a seafood base. 👌🏾 It was so clean tasting and flavorful. The staff was super nice and intuitive to our needs. Great restaurant! Great food! Great staff!”

“I had an incredibly delicious bowl of Pho and fresh spring rolls last weekend! The flavors were amazing and the service was attentive too. I came back this weekend between shows at the Strand and it was just as amazing! The Hu Tieu was spot on. Generous portions, fresh sides, great all around! Really an ideal spot if you're seeing a show at the Strand and enjoy a <10 minute walk.”

Sweet snail

Sweet snails served with a choice of salted egg or garlic butter.

“This place deserves all the stars!! I’ve tried so many dishes on the menu and they never disappoint. Highly recommend their wings with fish sauce, duck noodles soup, beef stew, snails with salted egg yolk sauce & shaking beef. Amazing flavors, perfectly cooked meat and great portions. Huge fan. Friendly and accommodating staff makes the experience even better. My go to for viet food in the area! Seriously a hidden gem.”

“I've ate here multiple times and I really love their pho and bun bo hue!! It's so delicious and the portions are great. I've also tried a couple of their appetizers (e.g sweet snail) and drinks (lychee jasmine tea and guava jasmine tea) (unfortunately I didn't take any pictures for most of my meals), and was very happy with the food/drinks. Service was great and I highly recommend giving this place a try!”
