Denver WestwordAugust 13, 2014We always grab a green pandan waffle for the drive home, along with a rainbow-hued boba smoothie or some refreshingly sweet-tart, fresh-squeezed sugarcane juice. Read more

Benjamin BlackmerJanuary 14, 2016Holy schnitzel this place is good. Very nice inside. Menu is enormous. Good bubble tea too. Love the spring rolls. I got a soup that was amazing. Seems very authentic.Upvote1Downvote
Aaron AllonFebruary 11, 2018Delicious banh mi. So far this ranks as one of the better ones I’ve had in Denver. The bread was perfect - soft on the the inside and crunchy on the outside.

Tim RomanAugust 28, 2015This is the best place to learn how to make your own spring rolls! Everything is fresh and delicious. And try the four seasons boba! Especially if you want to enjoy durian for the first time.UpvoteDownvote
The Wall Street JournalJanuary 16, 2015This restaurant boasts a sophisticated menu and unassuming storefront location. Even connoisseurs will return here after trying the crisp classic Vietnamese spring rolls called cha gio. Read moreUpvoteDownvote
My favorite place at all times to have a little taste of home. Even though my house is 45 min away. The bakery they have next door is also great.UpvoteDownvote- Denver WestwordJune 4, 2013Plan ahead and order yourself two banh mi sandwiches for dinner for less than $10. If you can’t wait, mix up the fillings and have one for lunch and one for dinner.Upvote2Downvote

Zach ZieglerJune 25, 2015Owned by the same family since opening, their years of practice have given South Federal one of its best restaurants, and Denver its best Boba drink.UpvoteDownvote
Kimberly ChladekSeptember 21, 2013This place has the BEST Vietnamese egg rolls. Order them as soon as you sit down because they take a while. Delicious egg rolls wrapped in lettuce, basil, carrots....YUM!UpvoteDownvote- ChristopherMarch 22, 2016Come on Tuesdays for their amazing hand made pate chaud. You can also order them ahead of time, as they can sell out!UpvoteDownvote

Bakery is always crackin. Be sure to get here before 2 though cause they usually run out of baguettes by then.

Kerry GipApril 4, 2016I had the hot pot and they give you a small plate of rice noodles and if you want more they charge you for it. I just really like it for their bakeryUpvoteDownvote

Hands down best combo noodle bowl in the world...truly! And oh the spring rolls...yum!UpvoteDownvote
CaitlinJanuary 19, 2010Order bun cha gio with a tapioca drink. Reserve tapiocas & the accompanying extra-wide straw as arsenal for all-out war against armies of second graders in parking lot.UpvoteDownvote- Jason BellowsMay 11, 2019Super friendly staff, can’t think of anything I wouldn’t recommend.UpvoteDownvote
DeanJanuary 31, 2016Pho is pretty good, seems a bit toned down for American tastes. Ca phe sua da is weak here.UpvoteDownvote- Bobbie McLellanSeptember 22, 2018Salads and noodles tasted great. Portions large. Service was very very slow.UpvoteDownvote
