For Vietnamese, this one is it...
I've sampled just about all the pho in and out of the borough of Manhattan. Of all the little, Viet places around, this one is our favorite. Very reasonable; when you get the check, you might think they made a mistake. The owners are very friendly as well. Some of our favorites: bun bo hue, summer roll, pork chop rice, and of course the pho.

Been Going Here Since I Was A Little Girl
I absolutely love this place. I've been going every sunday as a little girl! My parents still go every sunday and to the person who said its not authentic bc the staff spoke Chinese, they are Vietnamese people who also speak Chinese. The main chef is Vietnamese herself. So, just because you're waiter may have spoken Chinese doesnt mean that the food is being prepared by a chinamen. Didn't know a Vietnamese resturant was only allowed to hire people of one ethnicity!

i love the lo mein
The best shrimp lo mein ever!!! Good prices, large portions, yummy stuff!! I also love the summer rolls! Not the most cozy place in the universe but the food makes up for it!!

New Tu Don't!
I'll get right to my complaints. I wanted a vegetarian bun entree and they literally served me a pile of noodles with just fried tofu on top. No vegetables. The waiter was rude and pushy. They slammed my drink down on the table. Also, I have no idea how anyone rated this atmosphere above 1 star. I felt like I was at a Chinese buffet at a strip mall in Indiana. I'd say the only nice thing about this place was that we paid up front and were'nt forced to leave a tip on the table.

Tasty
We had a nice simple fresh meal last night. Rice noodles, shrimp, spring rolls. Big portions, tasty, not heavy or greasy, and friendly service in a pleasant new location. Give it a try.

best pho noodles
i love the new location across the street, although i have to say i miss the eternal christmas icicle lights that would reflect in the double mirrors in the old location. i have been going to eat vietnamese on baxter for the past 20 years, but once my friend introduced me to Tu Do, i've been a convert. the noodles are perfectly springy (not soggy) and the pho broth is great. they also have tasty cha gio spring rolls (can't say the same for an awesome pho place around the corner with the worst rolls ever). and their pork chop over rice is delicious too. those are the basic trilogy of dishes that i usually rate a vietnamese restaurant on. the only thing lacking from this spot is they don't have special dishes, like the soft shell crab on baxter. other than that, this is my go to spot for now.

moved across the street
this restaurant moved across teh street recently and they are offering a 10% discount on all bills. their soup is amazingly delicious. probably because of all the msg they put in it to flavor it. but def tasty even though its bad for you. its a relatively small restaurant and can prob fit at most 50 people at a time...maybe less. but their spring rolls are excellent. the viet sandwich not so much. u dont get what u pay for. its not meaty and thick. this one is lacking the meat. its like i got a sandwich full of veggies. the staff is usually nice, although their english is limited. and its all men, besides the owner in the front of the restaurant who is absically the cashier. ever since they moved, i think the food got better. but i have a feeling its going to go down hill from here.
