GOLDEN STAR VIETNAMESE RESTAURANT
Read moreIn Chinatown, this family-run Vietnamese restaurant is very authentic. It's frequented by many Asians throughout the day, which is a good sign and convenient when you've skipped lunch. Indeed, the dishes are delicious, especially the Pho soups (the most popular in the house, a beef noodle soup ), bo buns, spring rolls and imperial egg rolls, hearty and crispy. We recommend one of the very original special dishes.
GINGERGRASS
Read moreVietnamese cafes in L.A. are in general connected; here the colours and intense fragrances of the dishes follow the movement. With more than 500 000 Vietnamese Vietnamese living in California, the good chefs are missing: Gingergrass is always tight. The aromas of coconut milk, verbena, grilled meat and stir-fried vegetables blend in this restaurant. It's an ideal place to go to a group, even if you'll have to shout to make you heard from one end of the table to the other.
LE COLONIAL
Read moreA magnificent gastronomic stopover in Vietnam at this two-storey restaurant with outdoor patio. Dine on the first floor, in the large, tropical dining room, then head upstairs for a cocktail at the bar, where you can listen to guest jazz players on certain evenings. On the menu, a fine selection of dishes blending Vietnamese and French inspirations. Specialties include swordfish stew with green bananas and rack of lamb with curry. A real delight. On the other hand, the bill is rather salty.
PHO BANG
Read moreThe pho broth is lighter and more perfumed than in other restaurants of the same style around. The steaming bowls of this soup stop leaving the kitchen. All grilled dishes are a delight. Of course you will also find the po-boy Vietnamese version, perfect to take before or after a visit of the bayou Jean Lafitte.
PHO CAFE
Read moreThere is no sign outside, but if you open your nostrils, you just have to follow the perfume of the Vietnamese pancakes, which emerges from this small restaurant. The design is modern and the atmosphere is quiet.
CORIANDER
Read moreA restaurant that does not pay a mine, and a little away from the city centre, but what you eat well! For many, it is the best Vietnamese institution in the city. Many specialities from country to map; . pancakes are recommended, and then a skipped meat is recommended. The Bahn Bahn sandwiches are also delicious. To avoid a slightly cold setting in the restaurant, you can eat on the small terrace, which allows you to enjoy the sun.
HELLO SAIGON
Read moreA break is in order after discovering this area full of bars and stand-up clubs! Why not counterbalance the day's excesses with some good Vietnamese food?
