Bánh Anh Em
Master Critic Review
Bánh Anh Em
8.1
A newer East Village sibling to the uptown Bánh, with a more ambitious menu and house-made noodles that shine in their beef pho. The broth is aromatic and peppery, and the kitchen’s craft-forward approach makes it feel like a special-occasion pho stop rather than a routine bowl.
Must-Try Dishes:
Beef Pho with fresh-made noodles, Bún bò bơ (butter-sizzled beef noodles), Bánh chưng chiên (crispy sticky rice cakes)
