Monsoon

Looking for Vietnamese comfort food in Oakland's Piedmont Avenue area? Monsoon serves a focused menu of Vietnamese classics, from pho and rice plates to garlic noodles and crisp egg rolls.

Our kitchen takes care with the details that make a dish memorable, like noodles cooked to a perfect al dente and fried rice seasoned just right. Our spicy beef noodle soup has a lemongrass-scented depth and generous portions, and we add thin slices of fatty brisket alongside the steak and meatballs.

We're a family-run restaurant serving Piedmont and neighbors across the East Bay, with a casual, laid-back space that works well for a quick lunch or takeout. Ordering is simple: you order at the counter and we bring your food to the table.

Come by for lunch or pick up something to take home.
