Open Mon/Thurs/Fri/Sat/Sun, closed Tues/Wed. Muoi Tieu is a cozy family-run Vietnamese restaurant and market in the heart of Takoma Park, Maryland, with a small but carefully curated menu that offers a combination of popular Vietnamese dishes (e.g., pho, spring rolls) and less common home-style dishes (e.g., braised pork belly, pan-fried fish with ginger nuoc cham) with plenty of gluten-free and vegan options. Our small market also offers a variety of common Vietnamese condiments, pantry items, and Asian snacks. Like our name, which means "salt and pepper" in Vietnamese, our concept is simple: we want to bring classic, savory Vietnamese food to our community.

    We sat at the bar and were able to take advantage of the happy hour specials on drinks and appetizers, which was nice because the menu is quite pricey. Even sitting at the bar, the service was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and friendly. The food tasted great and the portions were generous. Only complaint was the coconut curry risotto was a little sweet for my taste. Overall a very pleasant dining experience.

    Amazing amazing amazing - can’t wait to go back. Usually reviews are about the food - which was truly wonderful in taste and presentation and accommodation of gluten intolerance - but service can often enhance or ruin a meal. And in this case the service only enhanced our experience so thanks for a great birthday evening, and the chance to contribute to the victims of the tragic LA wildfires.

    Another exceptional meal shared by omnivores and vegans. Best vegan pho anywhere. The Vietnamese salad (vegan) is totally addictive. The Viet steak is our favorite steak anywhere. Cheerful ambience in the winter cold, with great soundtrack. Our favorite local place.
