We were the first customers of the day. Staff was very friendly, attentive and helpful with food suggestions. The menu is large with a lot more options than your average Vietnamese. We had Beef Pho, Chilean Sea Bass and a Shrimp Firecracker appetizer. Everything was absolutely delicious! Can't wait to come back and try some more traditional Vietnamese dishes.

This authentic Vietnamese restaurant is a true gem! The Saigon steak and eggs entrée was an absolute standout - bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors that showcase traditional Vietnamese cooking at its best. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a genuine taste of Vietnam!

The food was so good that I was moaning from delight out the door to my car and on my drive back to work. 15/10 experience. Don't read reviews. Literally just eat here and find God staring back at you in the form of a chicken vermicelli bowl.

Best Vegan Pho ever. Wow you’d never guess it wasn’t a bone broth. So flavorful and delicious. The veggie imperial roles were also insane. The pho was filled with veggies. I got too excited and started eating before the pic.

There used to be Vietnamese restaurant called Sunflower on 183 & Payton Gin shopping center, next to Target. I used to go with my sister 20 yrs ago, then they closed for many years. This year I discovered this restaurant with same name. Turns out the kids of the original owner opened a new restaurant with the same name. That’s amazing!!! It’s so spacious and much more modern than the original. My sister was visiting, and I took her. She was so happy! Of course she ordered the Sunflower Crepes (which she loves). They have never been my cup of tea - so I wasn’t interested in sharing. I got the Shaken Beef, It’s so good. If you get it, you need to mix the lemon with salt and dip the beef in. My sis got upset I didn’t share and made a face at me. I didn’t care I also recommend fried rice and Calamari Salt & Pepper. Oh and my daughter always gets the spring rolls. It’s really good Vietnamese restaurant.

We have been going here since more than a decade and take it for granted (maybe that’s why we forgot to review it). They have great food and many good dishes but there is no better clay pot in the world than sunflower!

Absolutely wonderful. I'm basically a regular now. This place knows how to make perfect meat and that really makes them stand out. They have amazing customer service, I bet they are an amazing resturant to dine-in at too. They don't ignore special requests. I've gotten this place multiple times and they always go above and beyond. I'm often scared to try new things because I'm picky - but I tried something new here and loved it. The Shaken Beef comes with saltpepper, but I didn't even need it because the sauce was so flavorful. I'm not sure what the people on Yelp were talking about, or maybe they've tweaked the sauce a bit since then but it is absolutely flavorful and amazing. Some people like fatty meat - I don't. And I requested to have the least amount of fatty meat as possible and you can tell they tried their best, and succeeded! I didn't have any fatty meat and the texture/flavor of all the meats were perfect. So above and beyond to make sure the customer loves their food and I appreciate it so much! This is a great place to try new things, because they're very high quality and willing to accommodate you. They also have great peanut sauce. They have amazing flavor, texture, portions, service, and they really care about keeping customers. What more could you ask for?! Hopefully they don't secretly hate me for being so picky... I wouldn't blame them

Sunflower Vietnamese Restaurant on McNeil in Austin, Texas, is a true culinary gem that exceeded all my expectations! From the moment we walked in, the inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for our meal. The menu is filled with authentic Vietnamese dishes that made it hard to choose, but we finally settled on a few delicious options. Every item we ordered showcased the great quality of the ingredients and the craftsmanship of the chefs. The moment we took our first bite of the Wong Tom bombs, we knew we were in for a treat! The food quality was fantastic, and each dish was bursting with flavor. The shrimp and crab fried rice was a standout; it was perfectly seasoned with generous portions of shrimp and succulent crab, creating a harmonious blend of taste. The shrimp vermicelli was equally impressive, featuring fresh vegetables and aromatic herbs that made each bite refreshing and delicious. Not to mention, the beef stir noodles were cooked to perfection, with tender beef and a savory sauce that left us wanting more. Every course, from appetizers to entrées, was amazing and definitely worth the visit! To top it all off, the customer service at Sunflower was exceptional. The staff was incredibly fast, friendly, and attentive, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of perfect. They provided helpful recommendations and made us feel right at home. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained, adding to the overall pleasant atmosphere. If you’re in Austin and craving authentic Vietnamese cuisine, look no further than Sunflower! It's a five-star experience I can’t wait to enjoy again!
