Food was delicious and service was fast and friendly. The spicy tofu was some of the best flavored tofu I’ve ever had and the fried tofu egg rolls were crunchy, and delicious and served with a fresh plum sauce that was outstanding. The flavors were all interesting and well balanced. Will definitely be back!

Lily’s is fantastic! It has a warm and inviting vibe! I love that you feel like you’re with family. The decor is very late 90s/NY/kitschy cafe decor and filled with floral decor and interesting wall decor. A great menu of Banh Mi sandwiches, soups, salads, iced teas, juices and coffees. Try the lemongrass chicken Banh mi. Award winning spot and I see why! You won’t be disappointed with this place!

Growing up in Vietnam I am really familiar with pho. I ordered the Pho tai bo Vien and it did not taste like what it should be. The aroma and broth was off. For the price I paid I’m just very disappointed. However, I do think the service was good. The owner and waiters are very friendly.

I recently visited Lilly’s Cafe with my family for lunch, and while the restaurant had a cute and lovely atmosphere and was clean, the experience left much to be desired. We ordered Crispy egg rolls, Pho, and Rice with pork, as well as Thai ice tea and Vietnamese ice coffee. Unfortunately, the crispy egg rolls were a major disappointment, as they had a bad smell, and the owner was not accommodating when I raised my concerns. While the Pho was good and the Rice with pork was okay, they were not particularly delicious, and the ice tea and coffee were overly sweet and not to our liking.

This small but quaint restaurant offers delicious Vietnamese favorites. The portion sizes are large and reasonably priced. We had the buon, Bahn-mi, some crab rangoon, and a few spring rolls to try. We enjoyed the Lily’s spring rolls with strawberries. The service was also good, but at times slow. This was a very popular place, with almost all the tables full.

We got the Spicy Tofu, Veg + Tofu Pho, and Lychee Tea. I LOVED the spicy tofu…it was one of my favorite dishes in New Orleans. I liked the Pho. I thought the Lychee Tea was too sweet, I had to dilute it with water.

the butterfly shrimp roll is super worth trying!! first time i appreciated raw beef flank; just the way they piled/plated it did it for me ig; ive always had it separated in the soup until that point. really brought out the butteriness. decent quality:unit price ratio. apparently this was also the first viet restaurant in nola!

Absolutely loved this place and the expansive variety of food they offer! We tried the pho, bun (noodle salad), bahn mi and taro spring roll appetizer. Everything came out so fast and fresh; the experience was quintessential Vietnamese comfort food. They are very vegetarian/vegan friendly. Flavors are on point, I highly recommend any protein cooked with lemongrass for fresh aromatics. I will say that I preferred a noodle dish over the sandwich as the bread was a little tougher. Either way, this place is a Vietnamese staple and a must try in Nola!
