One of the first Vietnamese bistros in Prague and still one most popular. This crammed little canteen looks little worn out and it certainly isn’t a fancy dining experience, but their strong Pho soups (Pho bo taí) with a few slices of raw beef hits the spot every time. Their rolls are equally popular for a reason too! Try also Bun Bo Nam Bo (our most favourite). Take the food with you and eat it in Riegrovy Sady :-)
