Hello Auntie

Forget the standard bowl of phở. Hello Auntie flips traditional Vietnamese cuisine on its head. Trendy. Cozy. Undeniably cool. Tasting menu devotees constantly name-drop the MSB9+ wagyu beef tartare and that impossibly crisp bánh xèo—a sizzling crepe masterpiece. Here’s the move: grab your crew and lock in the $30 weekday lunch set. An absolute steal. You get brilliant, hyper-modern plates like lobster wontons, rich lamb ragu, and smokey charred ribs. Pair it all with a wildly inventive cocktail from their well-priced drinks list. Just make sure you save room for the Vietnamese coffee trifle. It’s pure cà phê bliss in dessert form.
