Lang Van · Central Avenue
One of Charlotte's oldest Vietnamese spots, with walls covered in regulars' thank-you notes.
Pho Good Time Asian Fusion · Dilworth
Broth simmered more than ten hours runs through eleven varieties of pho here, and a dumpling station in the window kneads and folds the dough to order. The Rainbow Dumpling Set is color coded by filling, which makes sharing straightforward. Charlotte Magazine reviewed the Park Road room in March 2025.
Cilantro Kitchen · Plaza Midwood
A build your own Vietnamese counter at 2001 Commonwealth Ave. in Plaza Midwood, where you pick a base of banh mi, vermicelli, or rice and take the toppings from there. Open since 2019 and busy at lunch. Charlotte Magazine includes it in its guide to vegetarian and vegan options, and Axios Charlotte has covered it as well.
