Van's

Wow. Very authentic broth! Came for an orientation at UAlbany and was tired of the lack of cultural diversity in cuisine. This place knocked it out of the park! Loved the pho and the pork chop was char grilled. Def coming back!

Best French influenced cuisine by Vietnamese chef, Van, who has a long history in Albany! His mom opened the 1st in Albany Vietnamese place in a tiny brownstone on Madison over 25 yrs ago.

Vans is a treasure & food is consistently excellent!¡!

Van's has the best pho in Albany! They are very consistent and have very fast service every time I've gone. The pho is delicious on it's own, but they also have add ins included on the side (like, basil, bean sprouts, etc) so you can customize it. The flank steak is the best in my opinion, but the shrimp, chicken, and veggie options are also super yummy.

Really good egg rolls and soup. Very friendly and efficient staff. Can't wait to try other dishes.

Always fantastic. I was very hungry - delicious soup and had enough to take home. One of my favorite places to eat in the Capital District. Also excellent - the half roasted chicken and the chicken salad - exceptional seasoning and flavors. Note: no separate checks for over 5 dining together. They do take credit cards.
