New Tự Do - Broad Channel

They will give you the pricey tourist menu. Grab a paper takeout menu to see the less expensive plates that come with rice. They are meant to feed one and at half the price.

Love this place. I keep going back to it since they give you large portions and you can get full for $10. I've ordered the bbq chicken everyday for a week on my visit to NYC, and I'll come back next time.

I wanted to try something that's not pho or bun thit nuong so I got a banh xeo. It was mostly bean sprouts and mung beans and not much pork and shrimp. It wasn't very crispy either. I liked that they gave a big plate of lettuce and basil. I don't think it was worth $18 (after tip and tax. The food is 3 stars and the friendly service is an extra star.

The beef stew has a special taste in it but can be a bit heavy in flavor. The bun bo hue is also good.

Beef stew okay. Beef stew we is actually beef soup. Restaurant follows covid guidelines. There is a bathroom.
