Roll Play
1800 N Lynn St, Arlington, VA
Crema's Take
“Roll Play brings a refreshing, health-conscious approach to Vietnamese pho in Arlington, with a devoted following praising their pristine broths and commitment to quality ingredients like avoiding seed oils and offering konjac noodles for low-carb diets. The split-level setup—carryout on the ground floor and a casual upstairs dining area with kiosk ordering—creates an efficient, no-fuss experience that appeals equally to busy professionals grabbing lunch and families settling in for a leisurely meal. Reviewers consistently rave about the Wagyu Beef Steak Pho as genuinely exceptional, with the kind of complex, flavorful broth that keeps people coming back whenever they're in the DC area.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Carryout is on the ground level. Dine-in is upstairs. You order at kiosks. Once you figure all that they offer the process is simple. The food came quick and piping hot. The phi broth was average. The shrimp tenderness and generous amount was the start of the show. The spicy…
This was one of the absolute best phos and soups I have ever had!!! Thank you for being one of the only businesses that doesn’t use seed oils, and who also has low carb konjac noodles and high quality meats available. I am so blown away by the fact that the beef is 100%…
I was so excited to see that An Roll Play opened up in the Rosslyn/Arlington area! I’ve been to their location over in Tysons before and loved it, so it’s great to now have one closer by. The fact that it’s open 24/7 is a huge plus — I actually stopped in after a late-night…
