Sunny · Utica
Rome Sentinel's Global Cuisine feature profiles Sunny, opened in 2008 by Sanh and Sarvong Soeung, whose menu spans several Southeast Asian cuisines with real Vietnamese depth. For Vietnamese, the pho is the order, with fresh spring rolls to start. It is the Albany Street kitchen the local press credits for bringing genuine Vietnamese cooking to Utica.
Pho Vietnam · New Hartford
Rome Sentinel's Global Cuisine feature describes Pho Vietnam as a New Hartford spot created to bring authentic Vietnamese cooking to the area, built around its pho and fresh bubble tea. The namesake pho is the reason to go, followed by bubble tea, at a small Commercial Drive kitchen focused squarely on Vietnamese staples.
