Located up the hill in Tombstone Canyon, Thuy’s Noodle Shop is a favorite for anyone craving fresh, scratch-made Vietnamese flavors. It’s a cozy, family-owned spot where the food is consistently high-quality and the atmosphere is incredibly welcoming.
The restaurant was founded by Thuy Dang, who moved to Bisbee from Vietnam and built her recipes by video chatting with a friend in her home country. Along with her husband, Tom Holtz, they relocated the shop in 2021 to its current larger location in Tombstone Canyon.
What You’ll Find
- The Signature Pho: They are famous for their authentic beef, chicken, and vegan pho, served in steaming bowls with fresh basil, sprouts, and lime.
- Noodle Bowls & Curries: Their Grilled Pork Noodle Salad (Bún Thịt Nướng) and rich, slightly spicy Chicken Curry are local favorites.
- Fresh & Fried Rolls: Perfect for a lighter bite, their spring rolls (with pork, shrimp, or vegan options) come with a standout house-made peanut sauce.
- Vietnamese Coffee: Don’t miss their Vietnamese Iced Coffee, which is the perfect sweet and strong pairing for a spicy meal.
- Vegan/Vegetarian Options: The restaurant is known for being exceptionally accommodating to dietary needs, with nearly half the menu offering vegan or vegetarian alternatives.
Know Before You Go:
- Hours: They generally keep a Tuesday through Saturday schedule, typically open 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM. They are typically closed on Sunday and Monday.
- Location: You’ll find them at 207 Tombstone Canyon, which is a short but scenic walk or drive up from the main downtown area.
- Seating: There is limited indoor seating and a lovely outdoor patio shaded by tall trees, which is the best spot to eat when the weather is nice.
- Payment: They accept credit cards, debit cards, and cash.
- Dietary Friendly: This is one of the best spots in town for vegan and gluten-free options, as many dishes can be made with tofu or specifically tailored for dietary needs.
- Pets: The outdoor patio is dog-friendly, making it a great stop if you’re traveling with a pup.
- Pro Tip: Because seating is limited and this is a major “local gem,” it can get very busy during Saturday lunch. Arrive a little early to snag a spot on the patio!
