CÔBA - Viet Kitchen & Ales

The soup of pho tastes so good!

I'm honestly so incredibly disappointed in COBA. It has been my long time favorite restaurant in Lower Queen Anne and the experience I had today was inexcusably bad and I honestly don't think we will be returning - we arrived at 1:30p for lunch, we placed our order, and in the time we were sitting waiting 5 additional tables came in, looked at the menu, placed their orders, and were served before us. The establishment was less than 1/4 occupied, it was VERY slow. When the third group received their order I asked for an ETA for our food, as we had been there over a half hour at that point and were there on our lunch break and did not have unlimited time, the server had not put or order in the system at all, and had said they would do it right then. After another 20 minutes, it still was not ready, I told them they would need to make it to go because it was long after our lunch had ended. It was still another 10-15 minutes until the order was done, and they did not tell us our order was ready when it was, they put it with the Uber pick up orders, and the other server noticed it was in the wrong area and flagged us over, as we were getting ready to walk out without our food because we had been waiting for more than an hour. We live less than a five minutes away from the restaurant and we only JUST got back with our food at 3:00p, an hour and a half after we had placed our order. I wasn't going to make a review originally, I was just going to elect not to go back, but in opening the order at home, it has none of the sauces for any of the items we ordered. They didn't offer a discount, they didn't offer any sort of consolation for the inconvenience; we paid full price to wait an hour and a half with a restaurant less than 1/4 full, and to have multiple things missing from our order.

The veggie pho was delicious and flavorful

This place was amazing! Electric attitudes from the staff and great service. Timing of ordering was great from the drinks, to the appetizers and the entrees. The atmosphere is also wonderful and homelike. We ordered the crab Rangoon, fried pancake, spicy Kimchi calamari, a vegan Bahn Mi sandwich, and the Pho Combo. Everything was really fresh and the portions were plentiful! Vegetarian options: A lot to choose here for vegetarians/vegans Dietary restrictions: Tons of vegan options

Not good with instructions.

Just got back from Vietnam and Coba delivered the hit of Vietnamese food we were missing. Had four appetizers over drinks and they were beautiful.

Food and service were both great!! My favourite was the spicy eggplant but the curry, tofu banh mi & seafood pho were all delicious.

Great Vietnamese food! The service at Coba was fast and congenial and the menu was quite large which I appreciated. The menu items we tried were all delicious and with generous portions. The beer I had was also impressively cold. Highly recommend!
