Le Pho Vienna
Best (vegan) Pho in town
Over the years, I've seen this Asian restaurant flourish in an area of Vienna with numerous food spots—rightly so! That I'm only now telling you about it, well, it's probably a case of not seeing the forest for the trees. It still amazes me, as I have such a deep love for their food.
Besides other dishes, the soups have always been a class of their own. However, the proclaimed Vietnamese place wasn't exactly eye candy in its early days. Later, they pulled off an attractive interior upgrade. This seemed to do the trick. What was once a secret tip soon became a hot spot.
It's definitely, and by far, the best vegan Pho you'll find in Vienna. It boasts rich flavors that many other places lack. The best part is that you can choose the size of your bowl: S, M, or L. I am not much of a "big eater," and it is not for my life that I could finish the L pot.
Everyone I've ever gone with has loved the food here, including carnivores.
Another fantastic dish I'd like to highlight is one I've never seen on any other menu in Vienna and was thrilled to see listed a few years ago: Laksa! I remember being introduced to this delicious, creamy coconut soup in Singapore and how my taste buds were blown away. Due to the shrimp paste, this isn't vegan, though. Otherwise, TRY IT!
