At Thien Phat, each dish bursts with vibrant aromas and layered textures that entice your senses from the moment it arrives at the table. Their signature Pho 27 Brisket Steak Meatballs is a standout — a fragrant, soul-warming broth teeming with tender brisket and perfectly spiced meatballs that melt in your mouth. Equally compelling are dishes like the Bun Cha Gio Bo Nem Nuong, a vermicelli noodle bowl featuring stir-fried beef alongside grilled meatballs and crispy eggrolls, delivering a harmonious blend of savory, smoky, and fresh notes.

One cannot overlook the playful complexity of the Grilled Pork Bahn Mi, a Vietnamese classic elevated with succulent, marinated pork, crisp vegetables, and just the right kick from fresh herbs and chili. The menu also highlights light yet bold options such as the Papaya Salad bursting with sweet and tangy freshness, and the Lemon Grass Beef, which combines fragrant layers of lemongrass with tender beef slices.

Thien Phat’s appetizer selection is equally tempting. From the golden, crunchy Cha Gio deep-fried chicken egg rolls to the delicate Goi Cuon Tom Thit fresh spring rolls wrapped tightly with shrimp and pork, every starter sets the tone for an unforgettable meal. Those seeking to sample a variety of flavors can indulge in the Sampler Plate, a beautifully arranged offering that captures the essence of their kitchen specialties.

The dining atmosphere complements the food beautifully – clean, spacious, and air-conditioned, it offers a comfortable setting where attentive service adds warmth without rushing your experience. Customers frequently praise the friendly and efficient staff; as one regular, Lourienne Dupaya, notes, even when visiting with large groups, service remains swift and attentive, ensuring both quality and satisfaction.

Another diner, Mai-Ly Andersen, raves about the Bò Sa Tế, a unique pho and curry hybrid that delights with its spicy complexity.
