A review of Dao Tien Bistro – a restaurant in St. Louis, Mo.
Sometimes there is just no way around it, you are craving Pho and you have to have it now. On a recent visit to St. Louis after having eaten Italian, Mexican and good old American, we were in the mood for something a little lighter, but still delicious. The answer – Vietnamese food. We pulled up on-line reviews and settled on Dao Tien Bistro. We had already read that it was located behind a strip mall and it was. Don’t let that location fool you, it is very nice inside and the service and food were both excellent!
After looking at the menu, we settled on spring rolls, #37 – The Eye Round Beef Noodle Soup and #47 Spicy Lemon Grass Noodle Soup.
The spring rolls were fresh and flavorful and the dipping sauce was perfect.
My Eye Round Beef Noodle Soup was excellent. The broth was rich, the meat tender. All of the condiments were fresh. My husband’s Spicy Lemongrass Soup was also excellent. The best part was that we were about 3/4 of the way done with our Pho when they came around and asked if we would like more noodles! We didn’t need any, but I thought that was perfect.
The service was attentive, the food was excellent. We will definitely go back!
So delicious looking! I grew up quite near there… but there weren’t any Vietnamese or Mexican restaurants back then.
This looks sooooooo good!
