I visited this establishment the other day. I was very satisfied. Very tasty signature beer that they brew themselves. And they also cook very tasty food here. We ordered several dishes: fried dumplings, sea salad, shawarma. Very tasty dishes with interesting and original decoration. For lovers of sweets, there is also something to choose from here. I recommend it. There is a friendly atmosphere here for spending time with friends or loved ones.

I recently visited this bar and was truly impressed by the cozy atmosphere and welcoming vibe. The place has that authentic New York energy that makes you feel comfortable right away. The food was absolutely delicious, and the presentation was beautiful and well done. I’ve never had a hot dog like this anywhere else it was incredible!The girls and guys working at the bar are true professionals. Thank you for such a great experience. I will definitely be coming back!

The presentation looked amazing, and people said the food was seriously delicious.Evil Twin is my home spot I don’t really go anywhere else. This is where I unwind and clear my head. Stephen and the team are awesome. They treat everyone like family.

Very good brewery located near the Brooklyn bridge. They have discounted beers, when a pint goes for $6.00. Otherwise, it ranges between $8-14. The beers are very good, and for someone that likes double dry-hopped beers, the "adult daycare" is a very good choice, whereas for a to-go lager the "greenhouse Nordic ale" does the job really well.

Evil Twin is pure Brooklyn vibe. Great space, chill atmosphere, and seriously top-tier craft beer.The nachos with a pint? Crazy good crispy, loaded, perfect with the beer.If you’re in NYC and want good beer and real vibes, this is the spot.

I ordered dumplings from them, everything is very fresh, the cook cooked in front of me. Thank you very much, I’ll come again. I recommend trying hot dogs as well, they are the best in Brooklyn

Beer is 5 star. Nextone food popup is 5 star (I dream of the red sauce they serve with the dumplings and the lavash). Great location, beautiful space. One of the best places to get craft beer in the city.

I stopped by this place the other day and honestly loved it. The first thing that impressed me was their signature beer — they brew it themselves, and you can really taste the difference. It’s smooth, fresh, and just hits right. If you’re into good drinks, this spot is definitely worth visiting. We also tried a few dishes — fried dumplings, sea salad, and shawarma — and everything was super tasty and nicely presented. The portions were good, and the flavors felt balanced. The vibe is relaxed and friendly, perfect for hanging out with friends, grabbing drinks, and just enjoying the evening. I’d definitely come back, especially for the beer 🍺

I came to Em Vietnamese Bistro on a whim, craving something warm and comforting on a cold, snowy day, and I am so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt inviting and calm. The space is relaxed and spacious, with beautifully lit lighting that creates a cozy, welcoming vibe. It is the perfect place to enjoy a hot bowl of soup. I ordered the Bún Bò Huế Đặc Biệt after our server, Mint, shared that it was her personal favorite. When I asked her to help me choose between the spring rolls and wings, she genuinely recommended the spring rolls, and I truly appreciated her honesty. Her warmth and attentiveness made the experience even better. The food did not disappoint. The broth was incredibly rich and flavorful, with a generous variety of meats that added depth to every bite. The spring rolls were perfectly crispy and, just as promised, absolutely delicious. Overall, Em Vietnamese Bistro was a wonderful experience, from the ambiance to the service to the food itself. I would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for comforting, high quality Vietnamese food.

I saw on GH that they have Bun Bo Hue on their menu. So I came to try it. This is so good. The broth isn’t oily like Bun Bo Hue from other places. It looks lighter but flavorful. I love it

The food is really good—we almost finished some of our dishes before the main course even arrived! Highly recommend! Edited: second time here! Still love it 😍

The broth was really nice. The pho was so satisfying from start to finish. Great service, great drinks, even the fried tofu with green sauce was bomb!

Best pho and banh cuốn I’ve had in NYC. Super authentic flavors and very cozy inside. Staff was friendly, welcoming, and explained the menu in detail.

The restaurant is a must! We were just passing and saw the little cozy restaurant and it was the best choice to go in 😍 it was amazing! The food was super good - very delicious. The service is friendly and helpful.

We had an absolutely amazing experience at Em Vietnamese Bistro! The food here is truly outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared, easily making this a top spot for Vietnamese cuisine. Beyond the delicious dishes, the restaurant itself is a super nice place with a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to stay a while. What truly elevated our visit, however, was the incredible hospitality. We received a wonderfully warm, humble welcome and greet by Mint (one of the staff members). Mint’s kindness and attentiveness set a perfect tone for the entire meal. Highly recommend a visit to Em Vietnamese Bistro for a combination of fantastic food and genuinely exceptional service!

Had this place saved and finally stopped by for dinner on a weekend afternoon. Didn’t have high expectations, but the food surprised me, it was just as good, if not better, than other local spots I’ve tried. The service and vibe were great, though I wished the soup was hotter; it was kind of lukewarm, which was a bit disappointing. Still, I enjoyed the meal overall!

Katherine Hur

Amazing Vietnamese restaurant - have been coming here for years. Every dish I’ve ordered has been delicious (I love the chicken and rice) and the ambience is chill, casual yet refined. Mint, Jimmy and Nui are an awesome team and they always provide the best service. 10/10 recommend!

Natalia Serova

We had amazing experience here! So many good choices in the menu!!! And our server was very friendly and helpful! We ordered soft shell crab, Bo Luc Lac (ribeye steak in soybean black pepper sauce), clams with lemongrass and it was delicious! All of it! I will recommend to make a reservation because by the time we were leaving place was packed!

Unbelievably delicious! Great take on cha gio fried spring rolls; wrapping them lettuce and pickled relish adds more crunch and soaks up more sauce! Certainly one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I have been to (and I’ve been to a lot) 😋 Will be back!

Authentic and exotic Asian cuisine We had a wonderful lunch time at EM Vietnamese Bistro today and the food was amazingly delicious. We have ordered Ly’s Chicken Wings which is indeed one of best in town. The wings are crispy out but succulent and tender with Ly’s secret recipe. Pork Vermicelli is also the great selection for those who seek balance between carbs, protein and vegetable. Butter Clams were also something that you ‘must’ try. The hospitality was very warm and authentic by Patrick and Ly. We had such a great time and really enjoyed this place so very much and highly recommended ❤️

Amazing service, delicious food, and a fantastic location just a few blocks from Dumbo! 🌟 Definitely worth checking out. My favorites tonight? The pho, garlic butter clams, and shaking beef — absolutely delicious! 🥢✨

Evil Twin’s DUMBO location is a solid spot for craft beer lovers, with a great selection and a prime location in Brooklyn. The beers were good overall, but the standout for me was their sour sangria—absolutely amazing and a must-try. We sampled the Pale Ale, Purple Rice Lager, and the Sangria, and while all were enjoyable, the sangria stole the show. The bartenders were friendly and welcoming, which added to the laid-back atmosphere. The location itself is a big plus—perfect for grabbing a drink while exploring the area. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re into unique and flavorful brews.

They take res via Yelp, FYI! We did a walk in for a party of 2 at 3pm on a rainy day and it was pretty empty. I had to wait for my friend and was allowed to sit and wait for her at our table. Staff here is very attentive and friendly. The Pho here is more so like Northern pho, with the fatter vermicelli noodles. I enjoyed my Beef Pho and the broth was good. I was asked if I wanted fresh noodles or not, which was a question I was never asked at other viet spots before. I requested fresh noodles, which were a bit softer in my broth. Their fresh noodles are made daily vs their other kind of noodles made a day before - idk how much of a difference it would've been toh. We also got their Spring Rolls to share, which were standard. It also came with pickled radishes on the side, which were nice and crunchy. Overall, a decent neighborhood spot with good, yummy options. I've tried other apps here before (Banh Xeo and Chicken Wings) and they were great as well. Would recommend to others for a comfortable meal.

seriously awesome shaking beef plate but rice not included and pho kinda lacked richness. make sure you tell em u want the homemade noodles if you want em. otherwise it'll default to packaged thin noodles really nice location next to dumbo waterfronts

It’s an expensive, we had the Pork and beef strew for our antree . The pork is a little too sweet for me and my partner , the beef is tender and flavor . We had mussel and the spring rolls as an appetizer. The spring roll is tasty but the mussel was so so , an Asian twist , wouldn’t recommend it . In addition, mussel was a small portion and it does not came with bread . It good to experience other cultures twisted take on cuisine.

Local Vietnamese restaurant with a wide selection to choose from. This spot was recommended by a local who loves it. Unfortunately, we didn't feel the same way. We just thought it to be average, maybe we came at an off time. The food was fine, service was okay, place was clean and was super busy by the time we left.

Awful experience with very rude bartenders. My drink was accidentally knocked over when my niece bumped into my arm, and the bartenders just watched and offered nothing. The couple next to us kindly poured from their own carafes instead. This is the first time I’ve experienced such poor and unprofessional behavior in this country. I definitely do not recommend this place.

This is a total failure! Don't go, you will regret it for wasting your money and effort! Dining area is too cold in the winter and too warm in the summer. Throughout the year, wait staff throws dishes into a tub making thunder like noise and it's always offensively disturbing. Wait staff, all except maybe one guy, rude, unfriendly, and nauseating. The price is ridiculously high for their product. The portions are too small. $16 or $18 for 4 or 5 pieces of tiny fried tofu cubes. $18 calamari had maybe 9 or 10 rings. Beef noodle soup was only half of the bowl. We won't be dining here anymore.
