📍 Atlanta’s Weekend-Only Vietnamese Gem – LBU Saigon
Tucked away in Suwanee, LBU Saigon isn’t your everyday restaurant — it opens only on weekends! 🗓️ Why? When I asked, the staff warmly explained: they run a wholesale operation during the week, supplying authentic Vietnamese ingredients across the area. On weekends, they open their doors to share that same fresh, high-quality food with the public. That means every dish is made in-house — real, traditional, and full of flavor 🍜✨. 🍽️ What We Ordered A2 Ground Pork Rice Sheet Soft, silky rice sheets wrapped around seasoned ground pork, ham, and char siu — think of it as a Vietnamese-style cheung fun. Layers of texture and taste! A3 Vietnamese Donuts Crispy, sesame-coated dough sticks — simple, fragrant, and perfectly satisfying. Would be even better with a filling, but still a yummy treat. A4 Fried Banana Fritters A must-try! Crispy outside, warm and creamy mashed banana inside — not too sweet, just right. A6 Fermented Fish Noodle Soup (Bún Mắm) A bold Southern Vietnamese classic. Rich fish broth, aromatic but not fishy, loaded with shrimp, grilled pork, eggplant, and herbs. A flavor adventure! 🌶️🐟 ☕️ Vibe & Service Bright, clean, and no-fuss — the food comes out fast and fresh. The staff is super sweet; the girl at the counter even double-checked if I’d enjoy the fermented fish soup — now that’s thoughtful service! 💖 💰 Final Take ✅ Taste: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (Truly authentic) ✅ Atmosphere: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (Simple & tidy) ✅ Service: Over the top kind — +100 points! If you’re hunting for a hidden local treasure with real Vietnamese soul, don’t miss LBU Saigon. Just remember — weekends only!
