Cafe 168 Pho and Ramen

After getting soaked by the rain on our trip to Hanging Lake, we warmed up with spicy tonkotsu, pho, shrimp tempura, edamame and hot green tea. It was all delicious. The heartfelt hospitality of the team made it all the more comforting.

This really is a great restaurant in Downtown Rifle. The prices are fair, the food is delicious, and the service is good. They have a lot of yummy sushi options which is rare to come by for this area. The ramen and pho are my personal favorite My only complaint is I wish they had more seating, they only have four tables that seat four, so you might have to wait or call ahead for a spot.

Service can be a little slow and sometimes miscommunication but very rare. Otherwise the food is absolutely divine, my honest comfort food. The atmosphere is also very comfortable. It is a small space so not good for big groups but dates and hangouts are perfect. Soft lighting and comfortable atmosphere. Love it here.

I’ve been to tons of pho restaurants through Colorado. Cafe 168 may take the crown as the best pho in the state! The pho broth was incredibly flavorful. Ramen broth was good as well. Grilled chicken and pork plates were perfect. Some of the best pho I’ve ever had!

I've been a customer for many months, and this is the first time they've served us the beef pho with only noodles, meat, and jalapeños—absolutely nothing else. The meat was tough and the soup had a bad taste. They really let us down this time.
