 Best Of MN 2012"Hai re-christened the space as Ngon Vietnamese Bistro, where he inserts a locavore's mentality into his family's cooking heritage. The results, coupled with a stellar craft beer list, are truly exceptional." - Rick Nelson |  The GrowlerFood Meets Beer |

 Best of 2011Best Pho "the broth at Ngon is like a six-course feast. It’s satisfyingly salty, seasoned to a beguiling complexity, and utterly slurpable." |  Best of 2010Best Vietnamese "it’s not every Vietnamese restaurant that does all that and serves a pho that easily wins any championship in which the criteria are authenticity and deliciousness. No, it’s not every one, but it only takes one: Ngon Bistro, you are the only one!" - |
 Cheap Eats"The décor is French in a theme of understated frills, the cuisine is highly accomplished Vietnamese, and the drinks list is filled with affordable small artisanal-produced bottles. No wonder Ngon is first in St. Paul’s heart!" - DARA MOSKOWITZ GRUMDAHL |  10 Best Capital City Lunches“Farm-driven Vietnamese is a rarity—and glorious. Try the silky and resonant pho made of grass-fed oxtail.”- DARA MOSKOWITZ GRUMDAHL |
