Vietnam One

Delicious, very flavorful. Will definitely return here. Only negative is that it’s not a particularly pretty environment, you wouldn’t think of it for a date night or to go out to with friends. Lots of vegetarian options.

Service was little slow… Appetizer came out after the food We told them we haven’t got appetizer after we’ve got food and they said nothing and brought it like 5min later. I saw others getting appetizer pretty quick (same appetizer menu). The food was good but I would say a little overpriced. I don’t know the meat supposed to be thin or not but it was good 😊

Vietnam One is the most consistent Vietnamese restaurant in Richmond. We can depend on the appetizer platter being varied and delicious and the entrees are always top notch. In a location that looks like a cafeteria the food is the attraction- plentiful and flavorful! We go to Vietnam One often and have never had a bad meal. My favorite is the Barbecue Pork on Broken Rice, my husband prefers the Pho but everything we've tried has been good.

Best Pho in town. You won’t regret it. Come here every week for my weekly bowl. Staff is nice and friendly and provide great service.

Did this place change owners? This used to be our favorite place and we will drive 35 mins just to eat here. Well, no more. We sat down and waited at least 10 mins for someone to give us the menu, another 10 for someone to take our order. We asked for extra meat and vegetables. Guess what? Same amount of meat and vegetables and charged us $7.5 more. That is outrageous. The service is non existent and the food is average at best. It’s obvious that they have changed the recipe so the pho gets ready faster. The broth is no longer the same and has almost 0 flavor. I am surprised it still has a 4.5 rating but I do see more and more people complaining about its flavor no longer being the same as before. Oh! I forgot to mention they took away even the napkins from the tables. The audacity! Whoever the new owner is, my advice is, don’t nickel and dime your customers, or we will vote with our feet.

FINALLY found a place in Richmond that serves Banh Mi; it’s pretty good too. Had an excellent experience on a Monday night. Ample seating. Ordering process was straight forward and to the the point. Food didn’t take long to come out. Pho is pretty good, egg rolls as well. We will be coming back.

During a recent training trip, we decided to stop for lunch at a local Vietnamese restaurant and opted for the Bun Dac Biet (Special Vermicelli Combo). Upon tasting the dish, we were pleasantly surprised; it was the best Vietnamese food we’ve had in Virginia thus far. The flavors were vibrant and well-balanced, showcasing the rich culinary traditions of Vietnam. However, we ultimately rated the meal four stars instead of five due to the overall experience. The service was impressively quick — our order arrived within five minutes. However, while speed is commendable, it did leave us wanting more substance in our dishes. For $17, the Bun Dac Biet featured thin slices of chicken, thin slices of pork, an egg roll, fresh vegetables, and a generous portion of vermicelli. Coming from a region known for its exceptional Vietnamese cuisine, I expected a little more protein for the price. In my opinion, the dish would be more appropriately priced at around $13 given the quantity served. In summary, while the taste and service were commendable, the portion size relative to the price left us feeling a bit underwhelmed. If you’re in the area and looking for delicious Vietnamese food, this spot is worth a visit — just keep an eye on the pricing!
