“I recently stopped by this restaurant for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the ambiance. It's a full-service establishment, perfect for enjoying a nice dinner or lunch. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming, which added to the overall positive experience.I had the honey salmon with mango and rice, and it was absolutely delicious! The combination of flavors was delightful, and the dish was prepared perfectly.I'll definitely be returning soon to explore more of their menu. Highly recommended!“
“This is from South Korea.I eat pho quite often in Korea. I came to Baltimore for a conference and missed Asian food, so I visited this restaurant.I ordered P2, Pho with beef. I paid $11.60 and received my food. Compared to Korea, the amount is huge. It also contains a lot of meat. Usually, I get hungry after just eating rice noodles, but here it was difficult to eat the entire bowl. I guess this is American size.The chopstick bag has instructions on how to use chopsticks (of course, I am an expert at using chopsticks).Cilantro, onion, scallion, and thinly sliced rare beef were included in beef broth, and bean sprouts, basil, lime, and jalapeno pepper were served separately on the plate.It's better than most Korean Vietnamese restaurants!There were several restaurants in a shabby building, and the atmosphere wasn't very bright. However, I was able to have a delicious meal thanks to the friendly staff.“
“Love this place!! My husband and I have been coming here for about 4 years now, and the pho noodle soup is consistently delicious (especially with all the delicious toppings they give you, like the mint!) and ready quickly.Vegetarian options: Tofu and veggies option for pho soup“
“Attentive and friendly staff serving truly delicious Vietnamese food. I had the Banh mi (crispy and delicious) and the Maryland chicken, which was something new for me. It was crispy and well seasoned especially with the ginger sauce, and I loved the tomato rice. Forgot to take pics but I’m going back today for more.“
“Bomb as pho!! Im from the bay and thought our Pho was the best, after tring the pho here i can say im wrong this place has the best pho i ever had. The customer service here is amazing nice and friendly staff. If your around here come by and gave this place a try! You wont be disappointed!“
“As always...there is never a disappointment!!! This food was so amazing I forgot to get pics but trust me it was delicious! Beef Pho was amazing as was the shrimp summer rolls with the peanut sauce!! The Seasoned combo fried rice was also great! Never a disappointment...try it you will love it“
“I’ve been coming here for years, and I still believe it is the most well-balanced, most authentic pho that you can get in the DMV. They are consistently good and the portions are always decent.Last time I checked they only accept cash, but that might have changed since they recently have had new management. I usually pay in cash here anyways out of habit. The atmosphere could use some work, but if you are here for the food then you chose the right pho spot.“
“This was my first visit. I sat in to eat and the atmosphere was quiet. I love the Chicken Pho, Broth was hot (temp) and flavorful. Portion size was large.. I also tried the Thai Tea which was sweeter than others I tried however I still enjoyed it. Worth the money, please try them you won't be disappointed.“
“Pho is good here. Been several times recently and it’s consistently good. Portions are good as well. Tried their spicy broth today, and it’s was good too. Not too spicy, but just right. Bowl prices are a little on the high side IMO, but not terrible. Plenty of noodles and ingredients.The owner is very friendly. This is becoming my go to place more recently.“
“First time at this establishment….the food was delicious… I ordered the beef brisket. It was seasoned well and was one of the best I have had so far in the Maryland, DC, and Northern Virginia area…. I will be coming again soon…3 stars only because it is really a carry out… the restaurant environment was good but plan to take you food with you. See you soon…“
“OK. I had Bun Bo Hue and not Pho. It was very good. But to get it to taste the way it should, you need to ask for mam tom- shrimp paste. They will bring you a small dish with a table spoon of mam tom and fried chili in oil. Mam tom has a very strong odor but 1/2 teaspoon of it in your spicy beef noodle soup will completely change its flavor. What I like is the pork shank in the soup. It is very well seasoned compared to many other restaurants I e been to. What they do not add to their soup is cubes of cooked pig's blood, which is found in authentic dish. I am pretty certain that most people wouldn't miss it. Also, not all the herbs that should serve with this soup were provided. That said, unless you have had authentic soup before, you would not miss them. Yes, without all the usual herbs, the dish is dumbed down somewhat. What I do not like is their misleading advertisement "buy 5 get 1 free." You have to buy 5 bowls at the same time to get one free. So it isn't a reward program for frequent customers. That said, I will go back for more spicy beef noodle soup.“
“I love this place. The owner is nice, provides great service, and he really cares if you enjoy your meal. I miss him when he isn’t there sometimes. I always get phö and its always on point. I recommend the #4 and #5. Add some bean sprouts, chili oil, sriracha, hot sauce and hoisin sauce and it is perfect. If you make the phö too spicy, it pairs really well with a smoothie, mango and strawberry are my favorites.“
“Best Pad Thai in town!I love that no matter what I order it feels fresh!Service is amazing , every time I’ve dined in I’ve felt welcomed and even when they’re busy they still exceed my expectations ✨ ? my favorite spot so far! Totally “
“I love this place! Their service is always fast, friendly and the food comes out quickly. Their broth is always super flavorful and fresh. I usually order the brisket pho which is packed with noodles and they don't skimp out on the brisket meat. Definitely one of my favorite comfort food places in Mount Vernon!!“
“This was the third Vietnamese restaurant I have been to since relocating to the area from the West Coast. Inflation has affected everyone and everything so with that said when a restaurant labels something as "Large" I expect just that for the price being charged. I was really surprised and impressed to see my Large bowl of Pho arrive at my table with a great ratio of meat and noodles. The broth was flavorful and seasoned well and noodles were blanched to the proper texture. Service was prompt and the restaurant was clean. Great variety of condiments table side as well. I know there's many more places to try but I will definitely keep Pho #1 in my rotation.“
“Coming back to reiterate this is the best Vietnamese restaurant in the area. Everything is phenomenal but I have to say the clay ginger chicken is my absolute favorite. The service is also phenomenal. Everyone is kind, helpful and very welcoming!“
“Tasty fresh homemade dumplings ? and spring rolls. This is a nice spot for fresh hot food! It’s good vibes and the owner is super nice and never rushes the food!! Wowwww the smoothies is amazing !!!! 5/5 I can’t wait to try all of the flavors“
“Absolutely one of our favorite restaurants, the food is delicious and so satisfying. Family owned restaurant with superb home cooking. Each pho restaurant has their own family recipe and this one is stellar on taste and quality. Always a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere, friendly and wonderful staff.Vegetarian options: Can easier get tofu or non-meat alternatives and in general the food and flavors selections are delicious.Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free options, plenty of rice and rice noodle choices.Kid-friendliness: Relaxing for kids, high chairs and in general delicious choices for everyone.“
“I love y'all but I wish you would answer your phone when youre open or let people know when you guys are having parties. It's extremely disappointing when I want a bowl of pho and you guys just turn your backs/don't even answer the phone. I literally don't want to go anywhere else for pho, help us out a little bit?“
“The banh mi is top notch here. I've shopped around at different offerings. But so far they have the better of the bunch. Still looking for that one that's the best for me. Pho broth can be borderline salty, which can mask the richness of a good flavored broth. Pick up food if you're around. One a the few spots in the city to get vietnamese food“
“Go-to spot for a very quick in-and-out bowl of pho! When in a hurry, 5UP is a great option. I come here after working out at PowerHouse down the street and am home within 15 minutes--park, order, grab and gooo. Amazing. Taste is on-point. I tend to like mine on the spicer side so I add Sriracha sauce and extra jalapeños.“
