Mekong Bk - City of New York

Pho was amazing. The broth had great taste and had the perfect portion of noodles and protein (beef).

Went to Mekong BK for the first time yesterday and I already know this will quickly become a favorite in my restaurant rotation. Was immediately greeted by the two servers and chose to dine at the bar. The overall vibe is inviting and cozy and somewhere I would want to hang out for a while. Harlie the bartender was amazing and suggested a lychee martini when I was unsure of what to order. AMAZING! I ordered spring rolls and the farmer egg noodles and everything came out quickly and to perfection. Was checked on by multiple staff members to ensure I was doing okay throughout my meal. Nicole the server was very friendly and gave me local recommendations because I am new in town. Overall incredible experience from the vibe, staff, food and drinks!!

So, coming from SF Bay Area, I've been a bit spoiled by how much great vietnamese food there was around me. This place to me in comparison to the Viet food in SF was just ok, although my girlfriend enjoyed it and would give it a 4/5.We both got the beef pho, and it was a tiny bit sweeter than I would have wanted, and it just wasn't savory enough for me. I probably wouldn't go back, but my gf probably would.

Excellent Vietnamese restaurant with incredible calamari and banana cream pie. The Mekong street noodle is also a must order, with a super umami shrimp flavor.Yes the usual pho and other go to dishes are good too, but if you are looking for something more than just pho, this place will deliver. Service and decor are also wonderful!

Very average. I’ve had much better Vietnamese food. I probably won’t be returning.
