A month in Hanoi wasn’t enough for us to find the best Hanoi restaurants and eat all the street food. That’s why we returned for another week to conduct further culinary exploration.

Though Hanoi food options run the gamut, most diners choose from the following classics:
Pho (Noodle Soup)
Oh, Pho in Hanoi, how do we love you? Let us count the ways.
We love you for your savory broth and your slow-cooked meat, both beef and chicken. We love you for your reasonable price of around $2 US. We love you for your condiments, especially the small but potent red peppers.
Most of all, we love you for your freshly made rice noodles that we always swirl on our chopsticks before slurping into our mouths. We hate to pick favorites, but we think you’re the best food to eat in Hanoi.
Pho originated in Hanoi and is arguably the national dish of Vietnam. We could eat this soup morning, noon and night. In fact, that’s what we do whenever we’re in Hanoi. Any time we wonder what to eat for breakfast in Hanoi, the answer is almost always Pho.

Pho Bo (Beef Noodle Soup)
We’ve eaten Beef Pho many times before, but never like in Hanoi. We stumbled into Pho Bat Dan on our first night in town and returned another half dozen times over the following weeks to eat some of the best Pho in Hanoi’s old quarter.
The lines may often be long (a good sign) compared to other Hanoi pho shops, but the wait is well worth it when the reward is cheap bowls of soup with ultra-fresh ingredients and slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth slices of beef. Though super casual, Pho Bat Dan is one of the best restaurants in Hanoi.
Quán phở Gia Truyền Bát Đàn is located at 49 Bát Đàn, Cửa Đông, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam.
