Vi Hanoi

Holy shit, this is the best restaurant pho I think I'll ever have! I mean it. Restaurants all over the world tend to have this very specific flavor that makes you feel like everyone shops and sources the same ingredients. Even worse, they make it gaudy with some "dinosaur leg" short rib. Nope, not here. This is PERFECT pho. Also their ca phe SUA da is amazing. So is their avocado smoothie. Everything they do here is amazing, and you should make it a goal to eat here at least once if you're in the neighborhood. I'm absolutely floored at how amazing this pho is. Go get it!

I’m glad I found this Authentic Vietnamese pho near my serviced apartment . I came back twice within 5 days during my recent trip to Paris I’m based in Sydney Australia and there is a large Vietnamese community over there . I was craving for pho during my stay in Paris but I didn’t expect to find such an impressive bowl of pho in Paris, but this one truly surprised me. We started with the Banh Cuon (steamed rice rolls) , filled with minced pork and wood ear mushrooms. Light, savoury, and very appetizing. The signature Pho du Chef came next. The noodles were slightly firmer than expected, but the broth was outstanding, clear, delicate, with subtle herbal aroma and a gentle sweetness. The thinly sliced beef was tender. It’s a refined take on pho that I’d gladly return for. We also ordered the Bun Cha Hanoi, grilled pork served with cold vermicelli, herbs, and dipping sauce. The smoky meat and fresh herbs were a perfect match; the herbs really brought the dish to life and tied everything together. For dessert, the mango sticky rice was a letdown. The mango was too ripe and the sticky rice undercooked, with a hard centre, not the texture it should have. I was hoping for Vietnamese three-color dessert, which unfortunately wasn’t available but they made the mango sticky rice ( usually found more in Thai restaurants) Luckily, the avocado and coconut ice cream made up for it, a rich avocado smoothie base topped with coconut ice cream and crispy coconut flakes. Refreshing and unique. On top of that the home made sauces were the highlight of the dinner The staff were extremely welcoming, communicated In English, and were attentive throughout the meal. Overall, a very pleasant and unexpected Vietnamese dining experience in Paris,definitely worth visiting.

Absolutely lovely restaurant, with kind and friendly staff. The food is delicious, we had a Green Prawn curry with coconut milk and a Chef Pho special, along with a ginger and lemon tea. It was incredibly tasty. We arrived quite early, which was perfect as it became very busy later on in the evening, with queues waiting outside. Overall experience was really good, the staff were super, very attentive and lovely to talk too.
