1 for their service, zero star for food. Banh cuon was preheat by microwave, they also did that for the topping ( Cha lua ) , we couldn't stand the smell of that plate. Bun Mang Vit was horrible. Bo 7 mon, we ate rolls with sweet and sour sauce instead because their fish sauce ( mam nem ) smell extremely fish ( of course it's fish sauce, must be fishy but not that bad ). We came back after few months but won't be back. Probably they re under new management, but my 2 cents, don't preheat Vietnamese meat loaf by microwave and use it as topping, specially it's restaurant not Deli.

We don't live in Seattle, but my wife and I visit every year. She is Vietnamese and she introduced me to Green Leaf in 2012. Every year we go back we always make time to eat at Green Leaf. It really is authentic and delicious. Both locations are good, but we prefer the location near King St.

Great value, superb selection. Bring your date and enjoy some pho or vermicelli. I'm a fan.

Quickly becoming one of my favorites. Service was friendly and fast. Small restaurant good for party of four or less.

Inexpensive authentic Pho. Just the right size. The noodles are a bit on the chewy side and I personally like it more cooked but it is just a personal preference. Food came very quickly which was good for workday lunch. The place is downtown Chinatown within 10 min walk to train station. I would go back if in the area.

You know those spots you get a periodic craving for a certain dish on their menu? Green Leaf's bun dac biet (combo vermicelli) does that for me. Only $12.95 for a gigantic bowl of vermicelli with 3 types of meat (beef, pork, and shrimp) is a dream for other indecisive people like me who like having lots of options in your dish. Probably the best vermicelli bowl I've had so far in Seattle! I went with a Vietnamese friend of mine for my first time at Green Leaf, and she was really excited to see the extensive menu, offering more traditional dishes and not just pho, vermicelli, and rice plates. She ordered the banh canh (Vietnamese udon) and we shared the banh xeo (crepe). I ordered the bun dac biet as above. We enjoyed all the dishes. The prices are all very reasonable for the portion sizes. Really good and fast service too! I struggled between putting this review at 4 or 5 stars, the only downsides so far that I've seen are the difficult street parking as always in the ID and the pho broth wasn't very flavorful, but I may bump it up as I go back to try more dishes like the bun rieu, bun bo hue, and the specialty noodle dishes. Unless I just keep getting the same vermicelli bowl...which is very well possible..

Mango salad is a must. 7 courses of beef is always good. We had rice plate and it was good but my favorite is still mango salad. Service was excellent and quick. My daughter complained of the sun in her eyes and the thoughtful waiter tried to bring down the blinds. Definitely a good experience tonight.
