This East Austin gem delivers an incredible taste of Vietnam right on 7th Street.  You should try the grilled pork banh mi because it comes on perfectly toasted French bread. Their 12-hour bone marrow broth makes the pho bo a deep and flavorful soup choice. The menu features unique items like curry ramen and ube tiramisu for a modern food twist. This spot moved from a popular trailer into a comfortable space for people to sit down. You can pair your meal with a lemongrass margarita or a spicy tamarind whiskey sour drink. The casual atmosphere works well for a quick lunch or a relaxed dinner with your friends. Everything feels fresh and the portions provide plenty of value for your money spent at lunch. You will find this neighborhood gem tucked away in a trendy corner of the East Side.
