The only complaint I have about this place is that it isn't closer to me.First - they have free parking right next to the restaurant. How often do you hear that Portland offers free parking?Service was great. She saw that my fiancee was parking our car and that I was about to pay for the metered parking and she stopped me and said to go park in the garage. She was also patient as I was being indecisive on what to order and checked in on us frequently. I wish I got her name to give her a shout out but her customer service was on point.Ordered egg rolls, fried shrimp, and the thit nuong self roll platter. And this place definitely is one of my favorite and authentic viet food within the area, which is hard to find.Highly recommend and would come back.

I came here because I was craving Vietnamese food and getting kind of tired of only eating on the east side of the Willamette, so I decided to check this spot out! It's a cozy spot, with more seating than it looks and a nice, quiet environment. Decor is nice and they also have a bar, unlike a lot of other Viet spots!I was pretty surprised by how extensive their menu was--there was a lot of options you typically don't see and some unique ones, I've never heard of as a Viet (such as spider roll and lobster pho). I got the hu tieu kho and my boyfriend got the pho; the food didn't take that long to come out. The food was so healing, definitely comfort food, and so so much better than I thought. Although it's probably not the best I've had in Portland, it is definitely on the better side and from their diverse menu, this place will become a favorite as I try more items from them!

We came accross a Vietnamese eatery for our comfort food, phở. This place was nice and neat with cozy and modern atmosphere. The staff is friendly and sweet. We were seated right away at arrival and did not wait too long for our food to come out. Pho broth is nice and on point. However, the star of our meal was Coconut flan. It tasted like coconut coffee in a pudding form. The sweet snd creamy texture of the flan paired greatly with the bitterness from Vietnamese coffee. Don't sleep on this item if you love dessert! Overall, our experience here was great and exceeded the expectations. Highly recommend checking this place if you're in the area.

Tasty pho, stir fries, and other Vietnamese dishes. I love to try new things here like Com Suon Bi Cha (pork chop, pork skin, and egg custard. Or the Xao Sa Ot (Lemongrass stir fry.)The servers are incredibly friendly and helpful. Aside from the nice look of the place the music is great too really setting the atmosphere.

I have been here a few times since my first review. I will say the food is always inconsistent. Like today, I ordered the vegetable stir-fry with chicken. While delicious with the lemongrass + ginger flavor, I was disappointed by the lack of vegetables in the dish. It was onion, bell pepper and green beans. The picture clearly shows carrots and broccoli, which I prefer. I'm convinced they made the lemongrass stir fry and not the vegetable stir fry.

Sort of nice but sort of a lot of design ideas started, then stopped, then not maintained. Relaxed vibe belowstreet level seating with Vietnamese coffee house acoustic music in the background ~ nice.Food is good just not proportioned to the bill which is ~ too pricey. Come here if you are calorie restricting yourself and you need someone to control the small portions for you.Staff is almost non existent before the meals are served and no where to be seen when you are waiting to pay. Could not get a single water refill.

This spot is the JAM! I've had a lot of Vietnamese in my time and this place has what others don't, the most delicious beef stuffed nuggets (reminds me of authentic Greek dolmades, they're almost exactly the same) . I got the combo bun today and it was plenty for 2 people. Server made us feel like we didn't want to leave. The Vietnamese coffee was amazing too. Will be back as often as we can !

Ordered from The Boiling Bowl through Caviar. We were looking for a banh mi place that offers pâté and pork on the same sandwich and decided to give this place a go.Unfortunately, despite advertising otherwise on their menu, the sandwiches arrived without pâté - major bummer. The pork was good but the veggies were not as crisp and bright tasting as I expect. Their boba tea also arrived without boba? Bizarre. To top it off, the crispy egg rolls smelled and tasted like musty socks. No exaggeration. Will not be ordering from The Boiling Bowl again and sticking with our go-to for banh mis, Best Baguette.
