Bedford Gardens

“It was freezing in NYC and I suddenly craved BBH. We were nearby and chose this spot since it was the closest. At first, I thought it was just a sushi restaurant, but they actually have much more. They asked if we wanted to sit inside or outside--we chose outside without thinking, and I'm so glad we did. The back garden is beautiful. They also give you a bell to ring when you're ready, which we loved because it gives you time and doesn't feel rushed. We ordered steamed shumai, brisket pho (extra brisket), and BBH. I thought $18 for pho was pricey compared to Houston--but I was wrong. The broth was sooo good, brisket slices were super thick, juicy, and fatty. You can tell it was cooked for a long time. The BBH was just as impressive--rich, beefy, and probably the closest to Vietnam I've had. They use pig tail instead of pork knuckle, which was so tasty. I didn't even need to add anything. Honestly, this might be one of the best pho and BBH spots we've tried--even coming from Houston's big Vietnamese community. It's pricey, but the quality, service, and atmosphere make it worth it. It gets busy fast, so plan ahead. If you're in the area, this spot is approved. Can't wait to come back next time I'm in NYC!”

“Beautiful restaurant and delicious food! I loved all of the plants in the garden dining area. The ramen was top-notch. So flavorful and hearty. The wagyu was tender and the perfect touch. The soup dumplings were delicious as well. The service was prompt as each table has a bell to ring your waiter as needed.”

“If I could eat the pho here everyday I would. It's that good. Highly recommend any of the sushi as well. Where else can you get Vietnamese coffee, bubble tea and sushi? Idk but this place is amazing. The decor with the plants is so calming and peaceful too.”
