Pho Viet

Pho Viet serves the perfect pho. From the very first sip, you can smell and taste the roasted spices, vegetables, and slow-simmered meat and bones that went into creating a near-perfect broth. It’s rich, deeply flavorful, and incredibly well balanced, exactly what authentic pho should be. The presentation is just as impressive as the flavor. The noodles arrive beautifully nested in the center of a clear, clean broth, topped generously with meat and surrounded by all the fresh garnishes you want, plenty of bean sprouts, jalapeño peppers, basil, cilantro, and lime to customize your bowl exactly how you like it.

Best Vietnamese food in the Richmond area! We drive 30 minutes to come here. Beautiful decor with relaxing music playing in the background. Our server, Min, was amazing!

Another great stop in the RVA. The pork Dumpling appetizer was great. We went with a Roasted Pork Belly and a Grilled Pork Báhn Mi. Both were incredible and full of flavor. The small side of Pho Broth was enough to make us wish we ordered one of the Pho entrees. Service was fast and the atmosphere was calming. We will definitely be back.

Pho Viet exceeded my expectations! The atmosphere was cozy and comfortable seating. The service was attentive and friendly. The food was incredible – every bite was flavorful and expertly prepared. Portion sizes were generous, and prices were reasonable considering the quality. Highly recommend for a delicious Vietnamese food.
