Cuong Vu Trio Meets Pat Metheny is a studio album by Vietnamese jazz trumpeter Cuong Vu and American jazz guitarist Pat Metheny, with additional musicians Stomu Takeishi on fretless five-string bass guitar, and Ted Poor on drums.

Vu had previously been a member of the Pat Metheny Group for two albums and tours before this recording.

The AllMusic review by Matt Collar states "Together, the quartet plays a set of original songs that straddle the line between ambient tone poems, exploratory modal jazz, and punk-inflected noise jams".

[5] In The Jazz Mann Ian Mann wrote "This is music that sounds fresh, spontaneous and adventurous but still with enough structure and compositional awareness to appeal to most discerning listeners".

[3] Writing for The Guardian John Fordham observed "Metheny enters completely into the exploratory spirit, and gives Vu’s intriguing music a fresh dimension and creative support".
