There is no better place I love to go than Roll Play when I’m in Tyson’s! The food is always fresh and very flavorful! The service is friendly and helpful when explaining the menu! I can’t wait to come back and try more items on their menu! We got the noodle bowl, the power bowl and the custom Pho, and We all can’t stop talking about it!

Roll play is my top 3 favorite restaurants in DMV area. As someone who is gluten free and dairy free, I have so many options to choose from which is amazing! My all time favorite is the spicy vegetarian broth pho with either chicken or tofu, it’s the most flavorful broth for pho you will ever find. I had an amazing experience today here at their Vienna location, they were kind enough to give us a lot of free food just Because and my boyfriend and I enjoyed it a lot!! Also be sure to use Uber Eats to order, they offer buy 1 get 1 free options for certain entrees and they give either free dessert or chili oil with ur purchase!!

Oxtail was fire!! I feel like this location was more of an express location not really meant to be had on-site. But the food was really good. The wings not my favorite. I would totally come back here again for the Pho and spring rolls

Their brisket pho is flavorful and comforting - one of my favorite places to get warm noodle soup. I recently tried their dessert trio of oats + sago (mango, peanut butter, and strawberry) and like that they aren't too sweet. I appreciate that they use avocado oil in all their cooking

Love their takes on the BÑnh Mì, but admittedly I only tried 2: pork belly and chicken. Take a while once ordered but definitely tasted good! Although I prefer the sandwich thinner, crustier, less "sponge", almost like a shell (like how they're in Viet Nam) but their breads are good match with what they're serving. Compared to other well known BÑnh Mì place(s), this definitely has its own personality without straying too far away from what a bÑnh mì supposed to be. Heck I would even said their bread is perhaps the closest to what the actual bread for bÑnh mì should be. Will come back and try other dishes. Just realized I didn't take any photos of the sandwiches!

Pho Tacos!!! They were delicious and somehow tasted exactly like the name states. Must try! The Spicy Oxtail Pho was great and had just the right amount of spice and flavor. Plenty of meat and veggies too. The Summer Rolls were enough to be a meal themselves. We went with the beef steak, pork belly and chicken all with the peanut butter sauce. Service was fast and the atmosphere was great. We’ll be back!

We saw this place online and decided to check it out brunch. They have a nice selection of items on their menu. My wife and I ordered a rice bowl, banh mi, and a side of oxtail bone broth. The food tasted excellent, the service was fast, the staff was very friendly, and inside was very clean. We will definitely stop by here again if we are in the area.

Roll Play: Viet Food that Loves You Too! is such a fun and refreshing spot for quick, flavorful Vietnamese food. The menu is simple but creative, and everything tastes fresh. I especially loved the customizable bowls and rolls β€” the ingredients were crisp, the proteins were well-seasoned, and the sauces really brought everything together. The portions are pretty generous for the price, and the service is fast even when it’s busy. The vibe is casual and modern, definitely a great place for a quick lunch or light dinner. My only small gripe is that some items could use a bit more punch in flavor, but overall it’s consistently tasty and reliable. If you’re looking for something healthy, customizable, and satisfying without breaking the bank, this place is definitely worth a visit!
