Kim Anh's Noodle House — Restaurant in Harahan

everything we had here was absolutely wonderful! i had the shrimp spring rolls and the vegetable pho with vegetable broth and tofu added, and it was so delicious! the tofu was fried to perfection, the noodles were soft and tasty, and the vegetables were fresh and crunchy. i’m vegetarian and i always have to cross my fingers that there will be something for me to eat at places that are mostly meat-focused, but there were a handful of different vegetarian dishes on the menu to select from. they even gave me vegetable broth instead of beef broth

I was really looking forward to eating at this place because of all the good reviews, but the spring roll was absolutely the most boring spring roll I've ever eaten. Literally just rice paper and noodles and shrimp. No flavor. No basil or mint or lettuce or any type of ingredients other than the bare basics minimum. I guess that would suffice for someone who's never tried Vietnamese food but for me it was a giant disappointment. They also didn't bring out any sort of sprouts or basil or limes to go with the vermicelli salad we ordered. The beef fried rice was super tasty tho!! I messaged the biz on FB to give feedback but never heard back from them so I guess my feedback will be public rather than privately hearing back from the owners. This place is OK, especially for the burbs where it's hard to get to the West Bank for the best Asian food. A bit disappointed but would take another stab...

Located in Eastern NOLA, where there's a relatively large Vietnamese population, this is one of my favorite ones to go to. Of course, their phos are ridiculously delicious due to their amazing broths cooked in large pots derived from a myriad of beef and chicken bones, especially the bone marrow parts that gives so much flavors, along with roasted 🧅🧅, ginger, shallots, star anises, cinnamon sticks, etc. Their stir fry dishes are just as yummy, along with side dishes like deep fried spring rolls, or lighter rice sheet rolls, all with peanut or fish sauce dipping sauce. And best of all, all their dishes are reasonably priced; ~...
