Bona - Minneapolis

Bona offers a vegetarian/vegan pho with a base of vegetables, roasted tofu, or mock duck. I tried the tofu option and it was absolutely delicious.

We enjoy dining at Bona before the game. There is no issue with seating, you can just walk right in. The service is quick and friendly, with occasional chatty moments but overall no-nonsense. The restaurant is simple, clean, and orderly. I tried the sweet broth pho with beef today, and as a Norwegian-American, I can't comment on the authenticity, but I enjoyed it for what it was. The soup had carrots, snow peas, and a side of bean sprouts, Thai basil, lime, and jalapeno slices. I added a little sriracha for some heat. The veggie spring rolls were straightforward with rice noodles, lettuce, and cilantro, and the peanut sauce was tasty. My favorite dish was the bun tofu, with juicy roasted tofu over rice noodles, lettuce, cucumbers, bean sprouts, and crispy fried potatoes with mock duck in a flavorful brown sauce. It's not a dish for someone watching their figure, but it's delicious.

The service is quick at this restaurant and the food does not disappoint.

The pho can be made easily vegan and there is a tonne vegan options. I get the sweetpho with added tofu and it is amazing. my friend (not vegan) loves it too!

We often go to bona to dinner before the game. no problem with sitting, go straight in. service is very fast, occasionally chatty, but generally not-nonsense what they want .friendly enough. the restaurant is simple, clean and tidy. had sweet broth pho w/ sweet and added to it today. After I had never (beef) pho, I have no reference and am Norwegian-American, I have no comments on authenticity. all that aside, I liked it for what it was. a broth soup with carrots, carrots, snowbsen and a large side dish made of pear sprouts, thai basilikum, lime and jalapeno slices. it has chased only one tade with sriracha and the luke. a small one was a lot for a person. the veggie spring rolls are simple, with reisnudel, drone, salat and zilantro. the erdnus sauce is pretty good. that rolls my man really. sweet only, no ice in the filling. (have never over the wrappers ask for no fish sauce (normal dip,) erdnusssauce! the bun tofu is also great. beautifully juicy roast tofu over reisnudele, salat, gurken, bohnensprossen. and the favorite of my man, fried kartoffeln and mock ente. not for someone who observes their figure! crispy roasted kartoffeln in a rich brown sauce with roasted wobble and good texture / flavor mock.
