Looking for Vietnamese food in Atlanta

Are there any go to restaurants for Vietnamese food or similar cuisine in Atlanta? I will be in town for business next week and someone in my party has requested it. Thank you

There are plenty. Do you have a specific locale you are staying in Atlanta?

I will take your top three places. No locale in particular.

Buford HWY ITP is little Saigon/ Hanoi. Without getting too into the differing cuisines of North and South Vietnam, I offer you these three options.
Pho Dai Loi 2: a little better than the OG and one of the better bun bo hue
Lee's Bakery: Great bahn mi. Rumor has it that they bake the bread for most of the bahn mi in the city. (I buy bahn mi loaves from here for when I get a hankering for po'boys)
Nam Phuong: very accommodating for large groups. Call ahead and they will work with you on a preset menu. If you'd like.
I can't remember if these have beer or not but most of them permit BYOB. Just call ahead and check to make sure.
You could easily use the top 3 results from Yelp, Tripadvisor, or Google and hit a good place.

Do you add shrimp paste to it?

I just read an online recipe for the dish that used shrimp paste...now I’m hungry.

Never seen it served with shrimp paste. Tell me more about this.

It’s the authentic way to eat. It’s a purple paste and should be on the table. After you taste the broth, add like 1/8 of a teaspoon to the bowl when the broth is hot so it can easily dissolve. After it dissolves, mix the bowl so it evenly distributes in the broth. It’s very concentrated so you don’t want to spoon a wrong area without doing this. Taste the broth, it will take it to the next level. You might like it you might not. If you you do, it’s an addiction and you can’t have bbh without it.

I appreciate your insight and will ask for mam tom upon my next visit (just looked it up).
Glad you're on the board to provide your expertise on Asian cuisine.
