Good solid beef pho and the boba tea is really sweet, it’s basically a dessert. I would definitely recommend getting double the meat or two different kinds of protein because otherwise there’s not a proportional amount to the noodles.

Really fun food and good proportions. I recommend getting the boat. This a fabulous place to grab lunch! Service can take a little while when it is busy, but very worth it. They have outdoor seating. Overall nice casual place to grab some good food.

Veg pho was amazing, the tofu banh mi less so. Great for a quick bite, not too expensive. Limited indoor seating but plenty outdoor.

Glad to say that I could finally dine at Red Boat. Tried to eat at the one in Bmore once but it was packed boots. Seeing Red Boat on H Street I was pleased. Something new. Better than the shawarma place with the run by the rude folks. Karma closed that piece. Alas, back to Red Boat. I love a good Tofu Bahn Mi and I’m not even a sandwich type cat. I am a cilantro lover and they do hit you off with it on top. Yes the tofu is fried but I like that the portion size is not so much that you feel weighed down. What may weigh you down is the Kimchi Fries. They were aight and definitely a shareable plate. Nothing I would order by my delf but cool to switch it up with. Service was cool. The place is still clean and I am rooting for Red Boat. R.I.P. Shawafel and good riddance micho’s.

Went there with a friend on a whim. We had the Kimchi fries (with a fried egg!) and the Boat. Service was fast and this food is honestly incredible. The Kimchi fries were nice and sour, with a delicious crunch; the sauces and egg made for a delicious meal. The fries are as good as any I've ever had. The Boat is this absolutely massive meal that is more than worth the price paid, and is quite delicious. Would definitely reocmmend this place to anybody who has, like me, walked by that area a thousand times but never stopped to look inside. Do it! No regrets.
