A cornerstone of Eat Street since 1989 — efficient, affordable, and genuinely great at vegan Vietnamese. The kind of neighborhood restaurant that earns decades of loyalty.

Aloha: I have had the best pho in the US and sampled a lot of other places across the country. This spot definitely takes it up a notch with RibEye steak in the pho. The fat from the steak makes the soup amazing and super rich- if you enjoy that. It’s the richest soup I had ever had. It’s is really good just a bit bold but really good. I have my own opinion and to me the soup should be lighter and let the meat and veggies give the pho its flavor. But that’s just me. Please try this place and see if this is what you enjoy. All the other dishes are amazing from spring rolls to the coffee and the staff is amazing and friendly . And I will say one of the nicest pho places I ever been too.
I can see why Quang comes up as ostensibly the most popular Vietnamese restaurant in Minneapolis. My partner and I went for dinner during our weekend trip to the area and were very pleased with our experience... tenured family-run business since 1989, efficient yet personable staff, and accommodation of our customized orders.
My family loves going to Quang Restaurant...it’s our go-to spot for pho on just about any occasion. We can almost always get right in, which makes it an easy choice, and everyone has their favorite dish they look forward to every time. The food consistently arrives piping hot and full of flavor. The broth is rich and complex, with layers of depth that keep you coming back, and the noodles are somehow always perfectly cooked, never gummy or overdone. This is hands-down our favorite place for pho in Minneapolis.
Delicious and affordable Vietnamese food in Minneapolis! I ordered the glass noodle soup with shrimp, pork and imitation crab. Deliciously savory and comforting - perfect for a winter day. I am excited to come back and try some milk teas ànd desserts!
I've been coming to this place since 2016 and I'm not even from the area. I travel for work a lot. I've tried Pho in different restaurants all over the US and let me tell you nothing comes close to Quangs!!! Most of them are good but Quangs pho just hits differently. Its the only pho that I eat without putting any kind of sauce cause it'll do disservice to the perfect broth. Too bad I live 6 hours away otherwise I would eat pho here everyday. Their banh mi are also bangers! I'm sure the other entrees are good as well.
No photos because we ate it all too fast. This place was buzzing, even at 2pm on a weekday. We started with the grilled meatballs, which were cooked to perfection. I had the pork chop banh mi; my partner ordered the premium ribeye pho. They were both extraordinary and my only complaint is we don’t live within walking distance of this restaurant. Maybe the best banh mi I’ve ever had, and for just $10, it’s probably cheaper to eat here than it is to buy groceries these days. Run don’t walk to Quang for impressively delicious Vietnamese cuisine in an energetic setting!
Always amazing! Chicken Pad Thai was fresh and a very generous portion. My husband has the lemongrass chicken and it was equally fresh and delicious! We love visiting Quangs whenever we can!
HOLY MOLY!! Amazing food! Amazing service!! Wife and kids stuck with the usual Pho, which they loved. I went for the Pork chops with Pad Thai! Was not disappointed. Tender and tasty! Had a Thai Iced coffee to go along with the meal, the kids had Boba! If you're in Minneapolis make a meal stop!
Quang has the highest quality of ingredients and care of Vietnamese cuisine in the Minneapolis area and beyond. It’s the gold standard we set every time and they always surpass it. Broth is flavorful and clean. Meat is thick cut and succulent. Even their coffee and coconut bread. It is the best.
Love this family owned restaurant. Fresh amazing selection of menu options - meat fish vegetarian options.
