Nhà Hàng Vietnam Chicago

Traditional Vietnamese

Lydia from Chicago

"Although this street is dominated by Vietnamese eateries, Nhà Hàng is a quieter, no-frills joint as opposed to the touristy, upscale restaurants nearby."

Nhà Hàng Vietnam Restaurant is an inviting local spot on Argyle Street in Uptown Chicago. Although this street is dominated by Vietnamese eateries, Nhà Hàng is a quieter, no-frills joint as opposed to the more touristy, upscale restaurants nearby.

The restaurant's name translates to "Vietnamese Restaurant," and it would be hard to classify it as anything but. Its menu is comprised of classic Vietnamese comfort foods that span across a booklet of pages. Options include warm, savory phở bowls served with a heaping plate of bean sprouts, basil, and jalapeno slices; banh mi sandwiches with a range of filling options; and various appetizers, including thick spring rolls.

I enjoy visiting with a large group or slurping a bowl of noodles as a solo diner. The family-like atmosphere of Nhà Hàng makes it easy to do both comfortably.

Be sure to try their classic dishes, but don't be afraid to try some of their more unique items, such as cá kho tộ (catfish soup in a clay pot) - guaranteed to warm you from the inside out!

Chicago Spotter Lydia

<strong>About me</strong> I'm a traveler at heart with a passion for seeing the world, as well as the biggest foodie I know.

Middlebrow

Natural wine meets fresh bread

I am always stunned by Middlebrow's appetizers, including "the big salad," which includes seasonal vegetables topped with plenty of pepper and shredded cheese.

Tavern-style pizza

Tavern-style pizza takes the crown at PIZZ'AMICI — thin, crispy crust, cozy vibes, and big local love since they moved from apartment to restaurant in 2024.

Vito + Nick's

Breaking Chicago pizza stereotypes

Vito & Nick's doesn't make typical Chicago pizza: it's the thin crust that reigns supreme here. I drive out of my way to get there, but it's worth it.

The 606

Quiet nature path

The 606 (aka the Bloomingdale Trail) in Chicago is a repurposed walking trail on a disused piece of L train track. In my opinion, it's a piece of art.

I'm not vegan but I do think that "Vegan Plate" in Lincoln Park is one of the best bang-for-your-buck restaurants in Chicago. Try the curry combo plate!
