I was surprised to see the large number of Vietnamese restaurants in Seattle. One day I will take pictures of some of the best Viet restaurants I visited.
I passed Thoa’s restaurant after leaving the Pike Place Market. I did not stop by it this trip.
I saw this Pho restaurant in Pioneer Square.
The best Vietnamese restaurant I have eaten in the US is located in Seattle’s Little Saigon in the International District. The food was great at Tamarind Tree. I highly recommend this place which is located near the corner of 12th and Jackson.
Sorry I was so busy eating and talking, I forgot to take the pictures of the food…
Hi. I’ve got you in my RSS reader and am vicariously enjoying your life in Vietnam. I’m a Seattleite myself and a 2nd-generation Vietnamese American. I remember when Tamarind Tree opened… great reviews. I must’ve given it three or four chances before giving up on it. I love the space, but don’t think the food is very authentic or good. Take it for what you will. 🙂
Really? I thought the food was very similar to the food I had in Saigon. I really loved it. I will go there one more time before returning to the Midwest.
Nice to meet you. Thanks for the comments.
Maybe I’m the one who needs to try it one more time. Nice to meet you too!
Yeah, give it a try again. Try the $25 US set meal.
Kevin, I didn’t realize that you were around Lynnwood! I staying with my brother in Lynnwood for about a week as well. I also just came from Saigon. I think our paths are due to cross sometime soon!
Well I leave on Tuesday early morning for the Midwest. I guess we will just have to cross paths in Saigon. 🙂
