New Thanh Hoai

Had option 1 soup and the broth was delicious. Soup was great and a huge portion. Also had the bo luc lac (104). The meat was tender and tasty.

Food is decent. Service is horribly slow.

Good food. Service can be better. They seem short staffed, even when the place isnt busy.

I'm used to having really great Vietnamese food at a couple of places in Brooklyn, so I feel like it wouldn't really be fair to compare New Thanh Hoai to them.

I ordered takeout one afternoon - spring rolls and grilled porak over vermicelli. My go to is usually just spring rolls over vermicelli, or spring rolls and sauteed beef over vermicelli but I decided to veer a little off course this time. The grilled pork is really just thinly sliced pork chops and I'm not a fan of pork chops because they're usually dry. This was no different. But even so, it was still very flavorful. And even with takeout, the spring rolls were still crunchy.

I didn't call ahead for my order and only waited 10 minutes, even though the place seemed pretty busy. New Thanh Hoai is a pretty good option for Vietnamese food in Jersey City. I think next time, I'll stick to my usual and I'll eat in - bet it'll taste even better!

For food, this place is awesome. I've had various dishes on the menu (my wife and I go every week or so) including their Pho, and it's very good. Service is NOT good, but with the decent prices and amazing food, I don't come here for great service. If you want a nice "couple romantic dinner" with top notch service, this is not the spot. Come here for GREAT Vietnamese food at good prices. Get in and get out.
