Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 5
1

Try Pho. For a first order, consider beef brisket pho; one diner found the broth rich and the noodles perfectly chewy.

2

Arrive Early. Come before peak hours if you want an indoor table, since the dining room is small and often fills up.

The Bottom Line

Vietnamese Foodies DMCC is a Vietnamese food restaurant in Jumeirah Lake Towers where pho is the main reason to visit. The beef brisket pho, pho bo tai and vegetarian pho all appear in the reviews, with diners variously praising rich broth, tender meat and noodles with a satisfying chew. Spring rolls, bun bowls, banh mi and lemongrass grilled chicken give you plenty to explore beyond soup.

The setting is a real part of the experience. The restaurant has a relaxed lakeside atmosphere with outdoor seating, while the indoor room is small and can fill during peak hours. Outdoor tables are especially appealing in cooler weather, though one older review found warm-weather seating less comfortable.

Service is generally described as friendly and attentive, and several diners mention helpful menu guidance and prompt seating. Value is not completely consistent. A business lunch was reported at AED59 with an entrée, main course and drink, but a Careem customer felt that AED55 for plain rice came with very small prawns and chicken portions.

Pho broth also varies by visit: many reviews love it, while others found it bland or under-seasoned. Vegan dishes, including papaya salad and lemongrass tofu skin, are worth noting for plant-based diners.
