Mekong District
"Mekong District focuses on dishes influenced by family recipes but also inspired by different world cuisines.Unlike other area Vietnamese restaurants, Mekong District is not your traditional Vietnamese fare. We aspire to bring influences from different Asian and Western cuisines into Vietnamese cooking.While you may find staples such as pho and grilled rice and vermicelli dishes, Sriracha Edamame, Viet Carpaccio, Lamb Shank, MD Steak and Coconut Mussels are definitely not Vietnamese. But fair warning, some dishes are based on chef’s inspiration and may not stay on the menu for long."

Overall, this was a solid restaurant, conveniently located in downtown Nyack adjacent to the village municipal parking lot. The menu is pretty authentic but also includes many Asian fusion dishes. In general, the dishes felt like a hit or miss. We ordered 3 appetizers, all of which were okay but not really impressive: - Green Papaya Salad: The vegetables were pretty fresh, but the shrimp was overcooked and didn’t taste very fresh. - Duck Bao Bun: The buns were soft and the duck was well-cooked, but it was pretty bland overall and definitely could have had packed in more flavor. - Mekong Roll with BBQ grounded shrimp: These wraps tasted fresh and were well-wrapped, but the ratio of vermicelli noodles to meat / veggies was off. There was not enough meat and veggies, which made it taste kind of flavorless overall. For the entree, I ordered the Triple Treat Fajita, which I would definitely recommend as an authentic dish to try! The meats were cooked very well— extremely juicy, tender, and flavorful— and they came in good portions too! However, the vegetable portions were much skimpier, and I wish they provided more of that. The experience of making your own rolls was fun and enjoyable. Other dishes we got were: - Garlic Noodles: A fusion dish that was just okay, nothing special. - Honey-grilled chicken Banh Mi: tasted great and fresh! The bread was soft, pillowy, and fresh; the chicken was tender; and the vegetables were crunchy—a great mix of textures. - Grilled pork belly with rice: Didn’t try this one, but from what I heard the meat didn’t taste that great and it also went really skimpy on the veggies. For dessert, we tried the Pandan Layer Cake and Sticky Rice Banana. Both had a strong mung bean flavor, similar sticky textures, and the coconut cream on both added a creamy, sweet touch. Both were sweet enough without overdoing it. I personally enjoyed the pandan cake more, though you can’t really taste any pandan flavor. Overall, the service was quick and friendly, and the ambience is very quiet— there were only 1-2 other parties there for a weeknight dinner. The space is pretty small with cohesive decor and a setup that feels intimate. I would say the prices are pretty expensive $14-16 for a banh mi is QUITE steep, but it’s on average pretty reasonable for the portions and the location.
This is a restaurant you'll want to visit if you're in the area. The restaurant is clean, staff are quick, and the food is delicious. Flavors are very good and portions are more than sufficient. Recommend!
Worst. You want a pork belly sandwich and they'll give you veggie sandwich with garnish of pork. Nothing tasted good. Waste of money. Ruined my day.Food: 1/5
Great Vietnamese pho with several grilled choices and appetizers. It's a small venue and takes reservations only for groups of 5+. The food is authentic and tasty. The atmosphere is bare-bones and the service adequate, but not especially friendly, but not unfriendly. If you're going for the authentic food, you'll be pleased. The rest is just okay.
My husband and I drove from NYC to eat at Mekong District at Nyack and the food surpassed all of our expectations! We are big fans of Vietnamese food and this place now ranks at the top of our go to places even if it’s a bit of drive. Pho with oxtail was delicious, especially the broth ... the kind of broth you want to slurp from the bowl or bring back home just to slurp later! The curry mussels were amazing .... the curry itself almost outshined the mussels, beef cubes were tender and since it was the first dish I tried I pretty much inhaled the food hence no photos, chicken and waffles were perfection.... honestly there was not a single dish that’s not worth raving about but in order to keep this review short, I will just say if you happen to be in Nyack visit this little gem of a place!!
Excellent little place for dinner. We had the chicken pho and three beef pho and the lemon grass steak with fried rice. Everything was delicious. The pho was fresh and you could taste the flavor of the lemon grass on the meat but not overbearing. The restaurant is great for friends, couples and groups alike. The staff was very friendly. The restaurant is in a busy town so I would include time to find parking if you're meeting up with friends.
Good Vietnamese food. Lot of interesting dishes. Must try!
I grew up eating Vietnamese food in SoCal from my friends’ mom’s kitchens and I’ve been to Viet Nam to visit family who brought me to their favorite places, so here are my thoughts on Mekong Grill. If that isn't enough street cred, I'm Southeast Asian and eat Thai/Indo/Filipino/Viet/Cambodian/Singaporean/etc food like it's nobody's business. Pho 3.5 stars: Firstly, the portion is huge which is nice. My boyfriend and I split this and we couldn't even finish it. There were tons of noodles and some meat, which was placed on top of the noodle and not completely submerged in the pho broth as traditionally done. Seems like they cook meat separately from the broth here instead of let the broth cook the meat. It came with sprouts, basil, and lime -- but no jalapeno. The broth was really really! salty and made me reach for water multiple times throughout the meal. I also found the broth to be lacking in herbal flavors -- perhaps masked by the salt? Anyway, even though it was generous, the flavors were pretty lackluster. Shaking beef 1 star: I've tried this dish, shaking beef/bo luc lac, at many different restaurants and I am really sad to say that this is one of the worst that I've tried. First, for $16, I would've expected enough to feed at least 2 people. I thought this entree would be mostly the beef and maybe a side of rice -- instead I was served Vietnamese picked carrot+radish, fried rice, sweet potato fries, and a small side of the beef. Moving on to the actual beef, it was diluted with a lot of nontraditional veggies white mushrooms, raw garlic cloves?!, lots of onion, etc., when I know that this is usually marinated beef over watercress greens. Finally, the beef was kind of tough and not that peppery. The fried rice was very salty again, and I don't even know what to think of the sweet potato fries, but I ate them because I was hungry. Average of 1 star and 3.5 star = 2.25 stars. I rounded down to 2 stars because of parking is indeed difficult. It's metered and even hard to find a meter. There is also a paid lot a block or two away. Anyway, if I'm in the area, I'd come back for the pho $10 but I still can't believe that shaking beef $16!!.
vietmanese food with a bit of american twist overall great quality food wish their menu had some pictures there is no pic at all so i had very little idea of what i was ordering for ex. their lemon grass chicken was not exactly what i expected
Slow service. Finally paid for the food that did come, but never got my entree. Maybe understaffed relative to an unusually large crowd. The food that came was good. Update : Ah it is clear from owner that my entree was forgotten / missed in the order. I was happy it was not on the bill - but thought it was removed. Overall an unlucky day - busier than usual and we were hungrier than usual. We may try again.
