It's been a while since my last review with Green Papaya. Nothing has changed except I think the PHO broth got a touch better if that is possible! I ordered the PHO special with includes all the different meats including tripe. They could not have loaded the soup up with more meat and be enjoyable. I hate it when Vietnamese restaurants skimp on the meat! It sweets is you thing then you will be happy that Green Papaya have added a new dessert that may not be on the menu. It's called the 3 bean drink as seen in the photo and if you don't see it just ask for it. This place is a genuine Vietnamese place since the owner is born and raised in Vietnam and he holds his family recipes. They have been here for about 8 years now so the locals definitely love this place or else the fate of Green Papaya would have RIP a whole ago since the are so many good restaurants to choose from in South Florida. If you haven't been here then isn't it about time you gave it a try? You will thank me you did afterwards!

By far the best oriental food I have tried to date. The soups and spring rolls are my favorite and the prices are very reasonable. Good service along with a good environment.

Green Papaya is not your average run down Vietnamese restaurant. It is nicely decorated on the inside. You are greeted immediately with a friendly smile. It has been a while since I came back to this place but it was as good as I remember it being. I would visit this place weekly but the 800+ miles distance poses a slight problem. The good news is that they opened another location slightly more north in Coral Springs but unfortunately still a bit out of reach for to make regular visits. Their PHO is very flavorful and they one of the few if not only Vietnamese restaurant in South Florida that uses real mint leaves for their PHO. Also it seems like their Taro Boba drink keeps getting better! Awesome food and wonderful service.

Food always is good, at decent price, but the last time I went asked for coffee and two of them cost me almost the same that one of the dishes: $3.95 each when you have a lunch for $8.95. There is not proportion.

Simple tiny little hole in the wall restaurant in Miami Lakes that's clean, fresh, with delicous Vietnamese cooking. This was the first place I tried it and have loved it since, Soooo goood!

By far one of the best authentic Vietnamese food down here in South Florida! The PHO is awesome! In addition to great culture food, it also has the best Boba drinks I've ever tasted! I've had them from the west coast to the east coast and I can say indeed it is one of the best! The Taro Boba drink is my favorite... unfortunately I'm back in North Carolina now and really craving it and nothing remotely close can statisfy as this drink does.
