    Nam Phuong's Pho has a clean broth, just sweet enough from the star anise and rich with beef flavor. Once you add in its chewy noodles, you'll see why it's one of CL's 100 Dishes in ATL. Read more

    Atlanta has way too many Vietnamese restaurants, Nam Phuong was one of the better options. 3-musts: 1.Salt & pepper calamari 2.Papaya salad 3.Pho(best in Atlanta). No license, so bring your own wine

    One of CL's 2013 Best of Atlanta Critics Picks, there's something for everyone here. Try the pho, which is clean, simple, and fresh. Beyond the soups, try the showstopping ba vi delights platter. Read more

    Great Vietnamese food and oh so reasonable prices. Great pho and love the shaking beef, salt and pepper shrimp, and spring rolls.

    The fried chicken wings with fish sauce have become deservedly legendary, but you can't go wrong with a banh xeo (Vietnamese savory crêpe) or simple bowl of pho. Read more

    Bo Luc Lac (Shaken Beef) is my all time favorite. I've tried many items on the menu and everything was delicious. BEST Vietnamese food in town!

    Do better chicken wings exist? Short answer: no. Long answer: None is crackly, sweet, spicy, meaty and entwined in shallot threads and pickled greens like these. Read more

    Must try if you like Vietnamese food. Most of the food is very authentic. They have a huge menu. Try the bánh hỏi or bột chiên.

    The cha gio spring rolls are worthy of your indulgence. The bot chien is an interesting texture experience, and the cafe sua da is eye-opening.
