Description

MẸT sits right on the river and does Vietnamese food properly – meaning staff like Moon and Peter will actually walk you through how to eat things, which condiments go where, and why it matters. This is not the place where they hand you a bowl of pho and leave you to figure it out alone.

The menu leans heavily vegetarian without making a big deal about it. The lotus root soup with tofu is the move, and the pho has converted people who thought they’d already had good pho in Vietnam.

Two floors – the upstairs is quieter if you want to hear yourself think. Prices are fair for a riverside spot in the old town, which is saying something given the real estate.

Highlights

Insider Tip
Ask specifically for the upstairs floor when you arrive - it's calmer than the ground level and still gets the river view.
Pros
- Staff go out of their way to explain dishes and guide you through the meal properly
- Riverside setting with a quieter upper floor available on request
- Pho that holds up against anything else in town
- Fair prices for the location and food quality
Cons
- Service can be inconsistent depending on which staff member you get - at least one reviewer had a noticeably unfriendly waiter
Best For
Couples, Vegetarian friendly, Date night, Beginners
