The newest restaurant on the scene in booming downtown Spartanburg is Lemongrass Kitchen which boasts authentic vietnamese cuisine, and the next time you are free for lunch, you should check it out. The pho is particularly fitting for these chilly days!
Lemongrass Kitchen is in the old Cafe Around the Corner space, and you'll find it very similar as they didn't do too much to the interior. It's a cozy space with about 10 tables, plus a patio which just about doubles the seating capacity. You'll find a little bit of vietnamese decor, but the real star is the food.
The menu is small but mighty with specials that you can find on their facebook page. Choose from rice bowls with various meats, sandwiches, spring rolls, and pho.
The spring rolls were obviously made in-house and the sauce was a perfect compliment to the fresh fillings of lettuce, shrimp, cilantro and rice noodles.

For an entree, I went for the chicken pho. YUM. The broth was so flavorful, even before I squeezed that lime and tore some basil into the bowl. Cilantro adds great freshness to the big chunks of chicken and thin noodles. The bean sprouts are a great addition too! They also serve pho with beef which I'll have to try next time.
The service was excellent as each menu item was explained before I ordered, plus they helped me take my leftover soup to-go. And everything is priced really well for a quick lunch!
