A family-owned Asian barbecue restaurant is preparing to open its second location this spring.
Tho Tuong BBQ, co-owned by Phuc and Linh Ngo, plans to open in Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood. The flagship location operates in Tacoma at 715 S. 38th St., according to an Instagram post shared by a Seattle foodie and restaurateur.
“One of the best BBQ spots in Washington is taking over a massive space in SLU! Anytime I’m in Tacoma, I line up my client meetings at Tho Tuong. Handle business, eat well. Simple. Seattle is about to understand,” the post read.
Known for selling out due to high demand, the restaurant specializes in roasted pork, duck and chicken, along with chicken feet and pig stomach.
Its noodle soups include roasted pork, roasted duck and barbecue pork varieties, as well as woven noodles with roasted pork. Sides such as pickled mustard greens, pickled jalapeños and rice vermicelli round out the menu.
In Seattle’s South Lake Union neighborhood, Stone Korean Restaurant serves Korean barbecue staples such as bulgogi and kalbi alongside soups and noodles, while Paju features wood-grilled meats and charred dishes rooted in Korean flavors. Tho Tuong BBQ will add to the growing list of Asian barbecue spots in the area.
Tho Tuong BBQ has not announced an official opening date. Follow the restaurant on Instagram and Facebook for updates.
