Pearl Bistro

Absolutely love the Beef Pho and the Signature Rice Dish Combo Bowl (you can select any two types of chicken). We always go for the Steamed Ginger Chicken and Crispy Panko Chicken and they’re both equally delicious, succulent and really filling! It’s also a bonus that the restaurant only closes at 10pm while many of surrounding restaurants close earlier.

Time Bistro is probably my favorite spot on the Ave! The staff are among some of the friendliest you'll ever meet, and I have always felt incredibly welcomed regardless of whether I'm dining in or taking out. And of course, the food is great too! The beef pho is incredibly popular and among the best I've ever had at a restaurant, but I also think it's impressive just how many other wonderful options there are too! The shaking beef, grilled lemongrass chicken, grilled pork bánh mì, t-bistro special, and vermicelli dishes are all among my many personal favorites. Even a lot of the beverages, like the lemongrass peach tea and the Vietnamese coffee, are fantastic. I come here pretty much every week since I live in the area, and the quality throughout the menu makes this spot special and easy to revisit. They even have a full vegetarian and vegan menu too, which is genuinely quite impressive. The UDistrict is extraordinarily fortunate to have such a great restaurant so close to UW campus, and I can't recommend this place enough.

vegan pork skewers, vegan mongolian beef, and some delicious coconut. this is one of my favorite spots with vegan options. every vegan option i’ve tried here over the course of the last year has been absolute 🔥🔥🔥 it’s a University District classic went there recently yet again and got vegan lemongrass tuna...WOW

😋 I wasn’t very hungry and wasn’t expecting much; however this place blew me away!! Very affordable and absolutely delicious food! I’d the tofu banh mi and my friend had the Singaporean vermicelli dish with chicken. My bahn mi had well-balanced flavors! Our plates(basket in my case) were clean by the time we were done! We loved our respective dishes! And then for dessert, I got the coconut jelly! I’ve had coconut jelly before and I really like it. I loved this one too. My friend tried it for the first time and fell in love with it! 🙂 I definitely plan on stopping by here for dinner in the future when I’m in UW area!

Just happened upon the grand opening day while walking by. Good stuff! Place was clean, friendly service, and the menus had nice pictures. The sticky chicken wings - amazing flavor, came out juicy and perfectly golden fried, doesn't need any sauce. Even better than Korean fried chicken! The Pho was perfect: flavorful, piping hot soup. Brisket was bursting with flavor. Give this place a try, you won't be disappointed!
