The expanded menu is a food lover's dream, offering a fantastic variety of dishes that highlight the bold and authentic flavors of Vietnamese cuisine. Each dish is crafted with care, and the seasonal specials, curated by the talented Chef Ly Nguyen, showcase a deep understanding of flavor and technique.Beyond the incredible food, the ambiance of the restaurant strikes the perfect balance between elegance and warmth. The thoughtfully designed space features a cozy yet modern aesthetic, making it a great spot for a romantic dinner, a special occasion, or even a casual get-together with friends. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring that every guest felt welcome. Whether you're a longtime fan of Vietnamese cuisine or trying it for the first time, Em's new DUMBO location is a must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience. I can't wait to return and explore more of their incredible menu!

Em has become our go-to vietnamese place in Brooklyn. Pho is really solid, as is my favorite Bun Thit Nuong - really flavorful pork, well cooked noodles. I also had their special spicy noodle dish last week which they had just introduced, and it was fantastic. My only complaint is they don't have a spring-roll-add-on option to their Bun Thit Nuong, which seems pretty standard at most Vietnamese places.Their service is always very pleasant and fast, and the seating area is nice though nothing special. Definitely recommend if you're craving vietnamese in north brooklyn.

Nice spot in Dumbo for Vietnamese food! The service here is super top tier and everyone I spoke to was really friendly and welcoming. I came for dinner on a weeknight with a friend and was able to make a reservation without an issue. It was spacious, clean, and had a nice modern ambience. We ordered the family style braised pork (family style) and the beef pho, both to share. The food came quickly and the servers were helpful in bringing extra bowls and plates for splitting the food. The pork was incredibly flavorful and cooked well, and there was a heavenly sauce that it was cooked in that I recommend drizzling over your rice. The pho was good and flavorful and came with bean sprouts and siracha and hoisin sauce The food was a bit expensive for the amount that we got, but it was very tasty and is a welcome choice to have in DUMBO.

Em Vietnamese Bistro has just done everything really well! While the Pho Bo was easily my favorite dish the wings and the Pho Ga also stood up to the test! The broths were so flavorful and deep that I couldn't stop eating!The vibe inside is very modern and very cozy which added to the whole experience.The servers were awesome and super friendly!Walk over the Brooklyn bridge and make a pit stop here you won't be disappointed!

Authentic beef pho noodle soup. Great on a cold day and beautiful ambience. They have a generous portion and the beef wasn't overcooked because it cooked in the broth as it's being served. They also give traditional toppings like jalepeno, bean sprouts and cilantro on the side. Prices aren't too bad. Would go back again and try a different soup or entree.

Came here for dinner on a rainy night. It was cute and comfortable inside and the food was delicious! I'll definitely be back to try other items on the menu. Docking a star because the service wasn't very attentive or particularly kind. We had two different waiters and they both seemed pretty detached and like they didn't want to be there. It also took us a while to get their attention so we could ask for the check which was a bit annoying.

Came here for a light lunch and it was good! We had the chicken wings, beef pho, pork chops, pork vermicelli and pork dry noodles. I like the simplicity of the menu. The chicken wings were freshly fried but a tab bit dry with sweet tangy fish sauce sauce. I loved it. The pork in the pork vermicelli was very nicely marinated and seasoned, the noodles were kind of undercooked but the overall dish was decent. Would come again!

Came here on a Sunday evening for dinner after making a reservation. There was plenty of seating available, and we got seated after waiting briefly. We ordered the Goi Ga Nuang (grilled chicken salad) and 2 crepes, including a vegan one.The server came around to refill water, and the restaurant had a few tables around us seated with dim lighting and a calm ambiance.

Soothing, zen atmosphere with incredible chicken wings, watermelon cooler slushie, and beef pho. Can't wait to come back and have all of this again, plus the spring rolls and noodle dishes. The watermelon cooler is a must get, like you're on an island, lazing on the beach...5 stars!!!!
