“Pho Bar got pulled up on by me n company recently during a cold @$$ day as a hot bowl of soup sounded to good to pass up....The location is in a shopping center but they have a clearly visible sign w an ok amount of parking.There isnt a ton of seating so maybe call if its a busy night..outside of that its nice n clean inside.As far as the food goes this place is pretty legit...Appetizer: curry puffs.while they weren't what I was expecting the flavor was good. But they needed a bit more time in the fryer as the centers were cold/under a bit so this was mixed bag.On to the main event here. The headliners were:Rare Beef PhoGarlic Stir Fry w/ Crunchy ChickenThe Pho itself was kinda on the salty side which was a letdown but the flavors were a knockout and the rare beef? Actually tender & rare thin slices of good quality beef!! Score!It came w all the fixins and everything tasted fresh. ?The garlic stir fry again was a bit on the salty side but the flavors here were aces!! Thin sliced tender pieces of ginger that didn't overwhelm the palate. Then you finish it off w some of the crispitty crunchiest chicken ya ever bit into and you have yourself a little happy dance ?They put out some legit eats here and it's worth a stop...if your sensitive to salt ask for it to be toned down. Outside of that enjoy the transport to a Vietnamese paradise.“
“My favorite Thai restaurant currently in the greater Hartford area. The food reminds me of my mom's cooking. I make the trip from Hartford To New Britain whenever I want a piece of home. This small quaint restaurant packs a punch and doesn't hold back on flavor. While some places water down the flavor to cater to a broader audience Mai (the owner) chefs it up as if she is in her home kitchen cooking for family. You taste the loving in her cooking. There is limited seating but when you get the chance order a few dishes with friends or family and share the meal Thai style. You can always order in advance and pick up or utilize a delivery service. You won't be disappointed. Ask for Mai (pronounced May) and tell her Ty sent you. She will make sure you're taken care of.“
“Service was quick and efficient. Staff was friendly and accommodating. I ordered spring rolls and drunken noodles with shrimp. Spring rolls were fresh with a light crispy crunch. The drunken noodles with shrimp was a lil bland, not enough sauce and portion size was small. I will probably try again just a different dish.“
“Delicious food !The owners worked with me to cater lunch for a large group, with many different food allergies. They were so helpful and accommodating, and the food was so good! Do not hesitate to support this small business!!Dietary restrictions: Many options for all dietary restrictions.“
“1100000/10 recommend this amazing restaurant! I had my Valentine's Day date here today and I was absolutely blown away with how delicious every single thing that came out of that kitchen was. The atmosphere was perfect for our romantic date. I truly felt the love in every bite! already planning my birthday dinner here next month! thank you ❤️❤️“
“I arrived in a great environment with friendly staff and was sat immediately. The service was quick as well as the wait time as it took about 10ish minutes. During this time I had ordered dumplings. I was very impressed with the flavor and soon after my ramen had came out. The ramen was just as good but I had found there to be too many bean sprouts, but this is just a personal opinion. Overall a great place to visit with friends and family.“
“Mae Kong is a great littleThai restaurant . The owner cares about her food and it shows . It is a small place tasteful but simple atmosphere . I have eaten here for many years . It is one of the few restaurants in downtown New Britain that has withstood the rest of time. While many others have come and gone Mae Kong survives. The menu is varied and contains many Thai dishes you won't find elsewhere . I have Tom Yum Khoong soup, the Larb, Pad-See-ew, a couple of Prik dishes, the green, Panang and Mussaman curries as well as several other dishes . All ver excellent. S solid and relatable Thai restaurant. It's BYOB.“
“When we were going to go to the very full Mexican place nearby we saw this place and it was very nice to eat at and had a very 'home-y' feel to it in regards to the people there, it felt like a place where they have made this food for a while and have their menu down pat... “
“We went on a slow night so the service was great and I had the Seafood vegetable stir fry. It was very good. Our waitress also brought out fried wontons and spring rolls. The dipping sauce for those was excellent! It was well priced also. I will go back.“
“Friday at 11:00 a.m. and easy parking, .25 will get you 15 minutes in the meter/order took 12 minutes, so it worked out well for me.This was my first visit, I ordered three appetizers:WINTER SHRIMP- 4/$7.95CHICKEN CRISPY SPRING ROLLS-4/$6.95CHICKEN WINGS-5/$7.95(These are wingettes, not full wings)Each one came with a Thai sweet/spicy sauce, which was more sweet and had no spice to itI played it safe with this order because I had never been here and the reviews overall are good, but these are items that are my go to in general and if I'm happy with these I would hope that I would be happy with an entree/dish in the futureShe said they would be ready in 15 minutes And it was ready in 12I enjoyed all three appetizers and I will go back to try and entree next visitParking: $0.25 for every 15 minutes and the parking meter people do drive-by often, so it cannot hurt to put at least $0.25 in the meter just to be safe“
“Yummy!!! Just the right amount of flavor. Not salty. Good portion sizes. Clean, spacious restaurant. Very nice customer service- attentive, polite, and communicative. Took it home for dinner so my pics aren’t great but it was delicious and there were no leftovers!!! I’m going back.Parking: There were about 5 stops on the restaurant premises but you could park on the street.“
