We were seated immediately and cared for by friendly staff. The menu offers many, many choices. We enjoyed the dishes we ordered. I was cautious of the homemade fish sauce but it complemented the meal. If you like Southeastern Asian food, give Pho Viet a try.

Amazing food! Their Pho is immaculate. I've had the stone bowl special (highly recommend) and the beef pho (number 1 on the menu, i think) and both are impressive. The boba is also very good, the pearls are a nice texture and the tea tastes good. It's one of my favorite places to go with my dad. 10/10 (photo of stone bowl special below)

This is my favorite Pho place, by far. My husband and I last came for our anniversary date, which is a 40 min drive/motorcycle ride but worth it. Food is always hot & delicious. The Pho is amazing with the hearty chunks of meat & other goodies. A lot of other Pho places just give you broth & noodles, booo! We cannot wait to come back again with our 11 year old son who begs to have Pho. My husband has a severe dairy allergy & Pho is the only type of food he does not get pain from.

If you are a lover of Pho, as I am, you need to try Pho Viet. The Pho tai and Goi cuon were excellent. One order of Goi cuon easily fed myself and 2 adult children. The beef in the pho tai was extremely tender. I was visiting from Florida, and freezing my a off, so a steaming bowl of pho tai was just what the doctor ordered! I will come again!

Food was very tasty and cane out hot! We ordered a clay pot, pho, frog legs and a Thai beef sandwich. All were phenomenal! We appreciated having spices already out on the table.

If the American’s and North Vietnamese had this soup together there would of been peace talks and the war over in 24hrs. This soup slaps. The place is nothing special to look at but who cares you’re there for the authentic Flavors of the Vietnamese culture. This place delivers every time consistent good flavors. Don’t go anywhere else for pho you’ll be disappointed believe me.

A lot of the other reviews talked about bad service, and honestly I think those must just be during busy times or when a specific person is working because I had the absolute best service. I called ahead with a question and got an answer right away. I came in my pajamas and probably looked like a bum, but they were so kind and welcomed me in like a family member. The young waitress was very helpful in guiding me on what to get (kept it classic with pho and banh mi), the older lady was friendly and efficient, and other staff helped me clean up, etc. Cannot stress enough how nice everyone was. Additionally, the food came out in less than 5 minutes, piping hot and delicious. The pho was amazing. So good. The banh mi was pretty standard, but good. I felt comfortable and welcome there, my stomach was happy, and my wallet was fairly happy (banh mi, pork/tendon/steak pho 14.50 without tax, and a honeydew smoothie with tapioca came out to around 34 total and will last me roughly 2.5 meals). Overall very pleased. I didn’t get a good photo, but just know everything looked and tasted great.

I had a really spectacular dinner tonight at Pho Viet. I ordered the D5 to drink (limeade soda) which was tart and refreshing. To eat, I had the C16 (clay pot catfish) which was perfectly cooked bone-in fish sections with a thick savory/sweet sauce with white rice, served bubbling hot in a clay pot. I also had the B28 (sliced pork with vermicelli noodles and veggies). This turned out to be my new favorite Vietnamese dish- the flavors were so well balanced and fresh tasting. It was cool noodles with grilled slices of pork, lettuce, mint, peanuts, sliced cucumber and carrot, and fish sauce to mix it all together. I'm so glad I have leftovers- I can't wait to eat it again!
