Le Bleu - Austin

When did Pho get so expensive? I remember when I could get a combo Pho for 7 bucks and it was more than I could eat. That being said, Le Bleu was excellent and worth the money. Excellent spring rolls and Bahn Mi.

I did not know Saigon Le Vendeur had a brick and mortar sister restaurant, and man, I've been missing out! I wish I was more hungry so I could've tried more, but I split the summer rolls, prawn banh mi, and steak banh mi with my boyfriend. I came for lunch, but there were definitely some dinner menu items I will order in the future. To start, the summer rolls were top tier, refreshing, and light. The different elements had nice textural interplay, and it was banging flavor-wise with the peanut sauce and basil. Next, (I ate everything in order of least to most flavor intensity) the fried prawn banh mi was delicate yet flavorful. It was like a Vietnamese po' boy if you need a frame of reference. Finally, the steak banh mi was a flavor bomb. It was well seasoned and marinated and not overcooked. I have a hard time choosing a favorite item, and that's a great sign, I will be back!

An absolutely great healthy option for lunch or dinner!An absolutely great healthy option for lunch or dinner! I’ve ordered from them several times now, and I can’t get enough! I love the tofu bun, and I always ask for extra herbs and greens, which they are more than happy to provide! I’ve also had their spring rolls with shrimp and chicken wings which I continuously get! I haven’t been to the restaurant in general, but I knew can speak to the food and it’s delicious!

Good vibe, good service, not a lot of people on a Wednesday evening. My friend got the bone broth soup and I had the shrimp spring rolls, both were excellent but the prices are just a little higher than expected. Good local joint that I can see myself coming back to.

This is my favorite food in all of Austin. There’s something about their grilled pork vermicelli bowl that’s just feels “all is right with the world”, this deep shalom, I kid you not. Their bahn mi’s are also excellent.
