I’ve been pretty happy with the food at Doyer’s on Doyers Street, even though this place is run by chinese. Their pho is no good, but their banh xeo is made exactly the way my aunt makes it (who cooks at Minh Anh in weststide Cleveland). Other food is good their too, like bo la lot and porkchops, and dirt cheap. I recently had a sandwich at Paris Sandwich on Mott Street in chinatown, and it was pretty decent, although I think their bread is over toasted and hurts the roof of your mouth after eating it. The “greenpoint” sandwich at Silent H in Williamsburg (berry and n.9th) is actually pretty amazing only because it uses polish kielbasa with the usual vietnamese sandwich ingredients, otherwise, I kinda hate that place, number one because it is called “silent h”. The best Vietnamese sandwich place, hands down, is Mr. Baguette in Los Angeles, wamp wah. I’ve had pho at a few other random places in chinatown like Nha Trang, Pho 89, saigon something, and they’ve been really whatever. Still searching for the good pho…

have you been to any good vietnamese restaurants since youve moved here? ive only been to saigon grill in union square (which somehow didnt have any protestors out front when i was there) and saigon bakery (more saigon’s anyone?) in chinatown.
saigon grill was ok, not bad, but saigon bakery made some pretty good banh mi sandiwiches. not the best ive had, but better than most. if youve never been there, try the meatball sub. when i ordered it i thought it would be the usual banh mi hoagie with meatballs in it, but i was wrong. i mean, it did have meatballs but it also had tomato sauce and if i recall some goddamn cheese, and im talking on top of pate, mayo, cucumber, carrot and cilantro. it called to mind many of my mom’s “viet” versions of american foods. it was some weird but good stuff.
