Nha Hang Viet Nam

Uptown · Vietnamese Community-sourced, unverified
📍 1032 W Argyle St, Chicago, IL 60640

Nha Hang Viet Nam is the kind of restaurant that locals on Argyle Street protect by not talking about it too loudly — a tiny, family-run spot that opened quietly on a strip increasingly known for its more touristy, polished Vietnamese restaurants, and has stayed quieter and more no-frills by design.

A nearly 200-item menu with a Michelin-recommended pho and spring rolls, plus a standout catfish clay pot

The Michelin Guide has taken notice anyway, calling out the spring rolls and pho as a cut above the standard. The menu runs genuinely enormous — close to 200 items — which Tasting Table's reviewer flagged as a reason to come hungry and bring a group rather than try to order for one. Standouts worth seeking out specifically include garlicky, sticky deep-fried chicken wings, a squid salad built with pickled peppers and puffed shrimp crackers, grilled lemongrass beef served with rice paper wraps for DIY rolling, and a catfish clay pot finished in a fish-sauce caramel that's rich enough to anchor an entire meal on its own.

It's open daily, generally from early morning into the evening, making it as viable for a pho breakfast as a late dinner. For anyone who's already hit the famous names on Argyle and wants the version locals actually eat at on a regular Tuesday, this is the one worth tracking down.
