$10+tax banh mi with protein is a pretty good deal in these parts, I recommend if you want to grab a quick lunch! This place gets pretty packed during the weekdays so try to order ahead. I got my grilled chicken banh mi in about 5 minutes and took it back to my office for a nice desk lunch. I think the bread was honestly the best part (this is not a diss, I swear)- it was insanely crusty but so soft on the inside, you could literally hear me crunching into it (sorry, coworkers... yes, I'm THAT person at the office I guess). Because it is so nice and crusty, you're going to have a lot of breadcrumbs flying around so beware. Good amount of chicken in the sandwich- it's grilled chicken that is pretty flavorful (but a little dry?) Maybe this is by design, as the sandwich includes shredded daikon/carrot pickles. Filling and satisfying sandwich!

So whether you're Vietnamese or just really enjoy Vietnamese cuisines, this is one of the places to go to get a quick bite in the city. I would recommend several dishes. Pho ( of course) the vermicelli noodles as well as the rice with grilled pork chop. The service is fast and friendly. And easy to sit and eat at. During lunchtime is super busy, but the turnover is very fast. I highly recommend this space.

I stumbled upon this place, while searching, yelp and shopping at Bloomingdale's. I ordered the summer roll with Shrimp, which was very good. And also a dry noodle that kinda resembles a salad with shrimp. It was excellent! I was surprised as I had never had that before. I wanted a soup, but they only had beef broth. They do have tables in the back. The bathroom was clean. The service just OK and I believe this is more of a take out spot. Which was fine because my order came out quickly. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars was because of the service. I certainly needed another napkin and possibly.possibly a soda. Food here is excellent! Service not so much! I would definitely recommend this place. But probably best to carry out. I'm still waiting for my napkin and some to go bags. No one ever checked on me here. Granted I was seated in the back. No excuse.

Very clean and modern pho restaurant in the upper east side. Though their pho is a bit on the pricey side it's to be expected in this area - $16 for a bowl. Broth is excellent - rich but not too greasy. The brisket/flank pho is a bit of a letdown as the meat is a bit too tough. But the vegetable pho was a nice surprise - fresh and tender broccoli, flavorful mushrooms and a rich and chewy tofu. Service is quick and not chatty. Nice stop after a cold day out a Central Park

Highly recommend Pho Lexington! I went with friends, and the flank pho was perfect for a cold, wintry New York evening. The bowl was huge and broth was very flavorful and came with thin cuts of flank and the usual onion, bean sprout, thai basil and lime. I'm usually pretty good about finishing all my food but had a bit leftover! The price is also very fair. The pho was $16 and $10 for the beef banh mi (which my friend ordered). I also always appreciate a place where you don't need to make a reservation to get a table. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. The service does leave a bit to be desired, as the staff forgot a drink order that ended up being taken to go. However, getting our food was very quick. As a side note, I've also gotten Pho Lexington delivered and really appreciate how they package the noodles separately (so important, otherwise the noodles get too soft and mushy). All in all, I highly value the convenience, food quality, and price value and would highly recommend this restaurant!

The Pho Lexington contributed a lot to my health and happiness when I visited Manhattan. I am someone who constantly craves soup so when I find a good soup place I will go back again and again. On my first visit there, I ordered the flank and brisket noodle soup and also the summer rolls. The summer rolls were fresh with a yummy peanut sauce but the soup was the star. It was so big we split one bowl between the three of us. The meat was very thin and tender because they put it in fresh and it cooks in the piping hot broth. The noodles were abundant and had a good texture. My favorite part of the soup was the broth though. It was salty and rich while not having an overpowering flavor. After I finished my bowl I felt all warm inside and ready to explore manhattan:) I was back again the next day. One thing I would note is that it was a bit loud in the restaurant and if they turned down the music a little I think that would help but thats just my preference. Service was also very quick and nice! Wether you are a local or a traveler I would recommend stopping by if you are near Lexington in Manhattan!
