Customer Reviews
Pho The Bowl is hands down one of my favorite places to eat — I come here at least once a week! The pho is always fresh, flavorful, and comforting, and the portions are generous. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Consistently delicious every single time. Highly recommend!
We love this place! Food is always consistent, service is friendly and efficient, parking is easy, prices are decent. The restaurant is super clean inside and out. Great viet spot with classic dishes and reliable quality!
We love this place so much! The noodles are always cooked to perfection, and the portions are generous. I highly recommend the egg rolls—they’re packed with juicy, flavorful meat. We always order the beef combo pho and the vermicelli noodles with pork and egg rolls. Hands down, the best pho in town. I wish I had photos but i always devour them as soon as i get them lol Will add next time I order
The food we got was only ok. The spring rolls came after our pho and only had rice noodles, shredded iceberg lettuce, and shredded carrots with the tofu. They didn't have much flavor. The pho broth was ok, it needed help from condiments to add more flavor. I really liked the meatballs, but the rare beef was very chewy and didn't have good flavor. The shrimp pho tasted like cocktail shrimp. Overall, it was fine but probably will not return for another visit.
Such a bummer since we order from this restaurant quite a bit through DoorDash. At least half of the time, the short ribs are amazing! There’s been times the meat has not been the freshest, but today, the meat was so overcooked, that it was extremely rubbery and inedible. For a $23, it was extremely disappointing, especially to have to prepare another meal. Complete waste of money along with the delivery fee and tip. Hoping they see this review and improve their food quality. Edit: We tried this time one more time a couple weeks later and the meat was overcooked, but also smelled and tasted gamey. Unfortunately it looks like this place has gone downhill and I won’t be ordering from here again. The last 5 times, the short ribs have been poor quality- either very undercooked or overcooked,
