What the community has to say about Mekong River Restaurant

Information about this business (2)

From beginnings as a distinct nation, Vietnam has been influenced by China. The Chinese has contributed the custom of eating with chopsticks, the art of stir-frying and deep-frying in a wok, and food staples such as soy sauce, bean curd and noodles, among others. However, the Vietnamese, ever- conscious of retaining the native character of their culture, assimilated rather than adopted Chinese...

I have been eating here for years

I have been eating here for years. I have never had a bad experience. They use to be called something else and changed their names. Food has still been great. It was always better than the north location.
The enviroment is fantastic and the wait staff have always been nice.

In Short
A favorite with downtowners, this restaurant has prompt seating and courteous service. Walls are covered with Asian art and musical instruments. Most come for pho; unusual and...

Lacking on a few levels

Having spent a week in the US I craved Vietnamese to bring some freshness, herbiness and lightness to my diet. I headed to Mekong River as it was downtown Austin - near where I am staying.
