Notable Picks

$$ Uptown Vietnamese, Pho
A classic Argyle dining room where the win is a broth-forward pho order and a supporting noodle or rice plate that keeps the meal grounded. It’s strongest when you treat it like a simple two-step: one soup, one dry dish, then call it.

What makes it special: Broth-and-noodle Vietnamese institution energy in the heart of Argyle.

What makes it special: Pho-first cooking with enough volume to trust repeat visits.

Must-Try Dishes: Bun bo Hue, Pho, Tom yum soup
What makes it special: Bun bo Hue destination energy with a deep, lemongrass-driven broth.
$$ Uptown Vietnamese

Must-Try Dishes: Mi Quang, Banh khot, Egg coffee
What makes it special: Central Vietnam dishes (especially mi Quang) plus serious coffee program.

7.9
$$ Uptown Vietnamese
A no-frills Argyle Vietnamese menu built for big portions and classic comfort, especially when you center the order on pho or a grilled-meat noodle bowl. It’s best when you add one interesting dumpling or roll, then stop before the table gets crowded.

What makes it special: Big-portion Vietnamese classics with a long-menu comfort rhythm.
$ Uptown Vietnamese
A tiny Argyle grab-and-go counter specializing in Vietnamese snack foods and tofu-forward bites that work best as a quick haul, not a sit-down meal. Pick a couple fried items and one sweet or chilled snack to round it out.
