Le Bleu

"The bánh mì at Le Bleu in North Shoal Creek is pretty much the same one you can get at Saigon Le Vendeur (it’s from the same team), but that just means you have another access point to one of the best sandwiches in town. The biggest difference at Le Bleu is that in addition to more classic bánh mì fillings—like grilled pork, cold cuts, and tofu—here you also unlock access to a few less-conventional ones, like garlic butter prawns or marinated and cubed ribeye. That, and you have a few more add-on options, like fried eggs or sour green mango.  " - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion

"The Vietnamese restaurant is offering Viet-Cajun crawfish at the moment. There are two or five-pound orders with sides available for pickups placed online. There are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury

"Le Bleu in North Shoal Creek is the grown-up, sit-down version of Saigon Le Vendeur, a small trailer on East 7th, that also specializes in bánh mì and vermicelli bowls, which just means that you have two access points for a couple of our favorite items in town. Bún bowls arrive with a lot of options, including a few that we haven’t found anywhere else in town—like lamb or garlic butter prawns—but we like to pair our rice vermicelli noodles with spicy, marinated chicken thighs since it’s pretty much the most tender version you’ll find around. There’s also a full menu of dishes including pho, bánh xèo, bò lúc lắc, and more. What to order: Spicy chicken bún " - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion

"The Vietnamese restaurant Le Bleu in North Shoal Creek might specialize in bánh mì and vermicelli bowls, but the menu also includes a broad variety of appetizers like smoky grilled octopus skewers and some shatteringly crispy chicken wings. Topped with fried garlic, sesame seeds, green onions, and radish, the best part about the wings is the sauce. It’s a sweet, funky, and spicy combination of passion fruit, garlic, chili, and fish sauce. Get extra napkins." - raphael brion, nicolai mccrary

"Chicken wings from Saigon Le Vendeur’s North Shoal Creek Vietnamese restaurant come with a passionfruit/garlic/chile sauce. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
