Top 4 Vietnamese in Oklahoma City
OKC's Asian District took root with Saigon refugees in 1975 and is now one of the Midwest's deepest Vietnamese scenes. Cross-referenced from 405 Magazine's 10 Pho Joints feature and 405's Inside OKC's Asian District guide.
- #1
Pho Lien Hoa
Asian District
“405 Magazine calls Pho Lien Hoa 'the mothership' for pho in OKC — longest tenure in the Asian District. 2023 Best of the 405 readers'-choice Vietnamese winner: 'one of the original Vietnamese concepts in OKC and still here because it's delicious.' Cash only.”
- #2
Lido Restaurant
Asian District
“405 Magazine's Asian District feature credits Lido as the first Vietnamese restaurant in the district with an English menu — brought West Coast-style Vietnamese to OKC and was the first to pull downtown lunch crowds across Classen. Bun bo Hue, clay-pot pork, curried frog legs.”
- #3
Pho Cuong Restaurant
Asian District
“405 Magazine's pho roundup knows it as 'the green house' — a longstanding Asian District favorite with the adventurous end of the menu fully intact for diners who want more than the standard pho tai.”
- #4
VII Asian Bistro
Asian District
“405 Magazine's pho feature highlights VII as the full-service Asian District hotspot — lunch specials, a wide-ranging menu and pho that holds up against the legacy spots on the block.”
