I lived in Orlando for a decade and had countless pho options. This place is the best pho place I’ve been too period. Crazy because it’s in pcb. The bone broth is unique and amazing, they give you a good amount vegetables for toppings and they are always fresh. It’s very authentic and the staff is great. There are other options but I drive a bit further to this one because it’s definitely worth it.

In a city packed with heavy barbecue and grilled food, my family wanted to get some lighter Asian food for dinner, which brought us to Pho Express. There were several Asian families eating in the restaurant: not wanting to assume, but it was an indicator that the food there must be pretty genuine and good. And indeed it was.We got a small plain beef pho, a large spicy beef pork pho, and a pork slices & fried egg platte. Don't be misled by the sizes for the pho (Small, Large, and XLarge), cause a "small" bowl was filling for a relatively light eater, and a large bowl was more than enough for a big eater like me. Can't imagine having the XL bowl (unless you're really craving).All of the dishes were amazing. First of all, the smell in the restaurant had our stomachs growling already. And the first taste totally got us. The broth was flavorful, the spices were perfect, and the meat had great texture and came in abundant amounts. I will say I wasn't a fan of the noodles cause they were a bit too firm and broke easily, but that was only a minor inconvenience. The rice platte was good too, with juicy pork seasoned to just the right amount. A crisp fried egg and steamy white rice were great supplements to it. We finished our meal in no time.I forgot to mention the spring rolls - definitely get them! We ordered grilled pork rolls, and they were great appetizers for us. Overall, a fantastic meal for anyone who likes Vietnamese food and seeking a warm bowl of soupy pho. Conveniently good for young people seeking fun next door after a full stomach.TLDR:Authentic Vietnamese food for anyone with a craving.Plain Beef Pho: 7.5/10Spicy Beef Pork Pho: 8.5/10Pork Slices Platte: 8/10Grilled Pork Spring Rolls: 8/10

This is a no frill place, clean, fast, reasonable price, great food, and very friendly and polite servers.I am from other Asian country and food tastes very close to home.We were glad we went there.

Pho Express is a great “mom and pop” restaurant with delicious food and service with a smile. I ordered the seafood pho and it was outstanding!

The place is right next to a gentleman's club which I thought was funny.The space inside is okay, not ideal for a big group of family, there was 15 of us so we used up 3 separate tables.The spicy pho was really good (second time trying pho In my life) so I really can't compare to anything else. The spicy level was not that high maybe a 6/10. The overall rating for the pho was 8/10.The spring rolls were good give them a 7.5/10My spicy mango boba was alright, I've had better boba unfortunately. The drink itself was not spicy maybe they forgot to add all the things it described in the menu.

This is my favorite place on the beach!! The best pho, family owned and operated by really good people. Always enjoy my experience here!!

The business is basically ran by two sisters. They’re doing a wonderful job and I’m not saying that just because. This business is booming year round. My children and I visit just about once a week, the sisters always know our order. Delicious and authentic is what this business is. We will continue to come here. Thank you.

Our family loves pho so we've tried several different places over the years and this was one of our all time favorites. Both the beef broth and vegetarian broth were just delicious, and I loved that the menu had an option for beef broth but no meat in it (beef broth and onions, then add your bean sprouts, japaleno, cilantro, etc.). We also liked the many flavor options for boba (we found our drinks to be on the sweeter side, but liked that). This spot is a hole in the wall next to an unfortunate strip club, but the service was fantastic and friendly, and the food was awesome. Wish we lived closer.

Somehow I have 2 reviews of this fantastic restaurant. Authentic Vietnamese food. The Pho, spring rolls and egg rolls were all delicious!!!

Worst Vietnamese restaurant I have ever been. Ice coffee was basically powdered instant coffee diluted with water, sugar and ice. Bun Bo Hue was just broth with a bunch of minced lemon grass, didn’t even have flavor. The noodle wasn’t even BBH style. Meat wasn’t even beef. The food was so bad that my mom didn’t even want to touch the Pho we ordered. We are tourists from another city and found this place to have decent reviews. Apparently the rating was incorrect. Should be 2 stars or below. Save your money and go somewhere else.
FIVE FREAKING STARS!! Literally the best pho I've ever had and the staff is very friendly and professional. I always get the pho ga and my wife gets the veggie pho. We love them both and they are always fresh and full of flavor

Pho is my favorite food, so I've had ALOT of it. Trust me when I tell you the pho here is incredible! It made it into my top 3. It's also a bonus that the owner is so friendly & welcoming. Love this place, give them a visit!

I waited one hour for a boba And we waited like 45 minutes for a spring roll And it's right next-door to a strip club And we didn't get our a Boba But the nothing is actually good

This place sucks a** I waited like 1 hour for my food. Slow shitty service would not recommend.I'd rather go to the McDonalds

I Wouldn't feed this to my dog. 45 minutes in and I couldn't even get a spring roll. Staff is completely unprofessional and completely unorganized. This is probably the worst Vietnamese place I've ever been to in my 45 years
