Magnolia Pho

Really enjoyed Magnolia Pho. The space is very nicely done, dimly lit and cozy, which made it a great place to sit and relax. There are plenty of tables, and everything felt comfortable. The food was excellent. We had both the chicken pho and the beef pho, and they were flavorful and satisfying. We also ordered the pork dumplings, which were very tasty. The staff was friendly and helpful throughout the meal. I was genuinely surprised by how much I liked this place and would happily come back.

First I had the pho here i had to take time to thank God because it was so good. This time I got Bun Bo Hue i didn’t even realize it came with a big rib. I thought it’d be a lot of work to eat but the meat was so soft it fell right off the bone. The staff have always been so sweet, kind, and attentive.Nice atmosphere and they play good relaxing music. Definitely a vibe and a new regular spot.

Combination Pho soup very good (8.5/10) - classic, hits the spot. Monster Pho sold out, limited quantity at 1:00pm. House vermicelli bowl also very good - it was warm! (9/10). Thai green tea also pleasantly good (7/10)

if you haven’t tried their #26 Bun Bo hue, you’re missing out!!! Omg it just cures my nostalgia when the chunky beef fall off the bone and gave me the mouthful feeling. And the broth is more complex than a typical pho broth! The broth in Bun Bo Hue has complex layer of flavor with spicy, peppery, hint of sour and sweet with umami flavor from the ocean. The rice noodles are smooth and the very slurp-able! I ate everything and drank everything from the bowl. Bonus: the house salad with shrimp is great too, sweet but not too sweet and just the right amount of spicy aftertaste linger on your tongue. :))

Exterior looks a bit sketch but inside is some of the best pho in the Seattle. Broth is insanely clear yet still packed with flavor. Brisket quality is super high with just the right amount of fat. Also the short rib rice plate is outstanding. It is a little pricier than most Vietnamese places but definitely worth it.
