Pho-king delicious…read more It was one of the coldest days of the year and we were craving a comforting bowl of pho (rice noodle soup) to warm ourselves up. We visited Vietnam Pho in Woodland Park, located on Rt 46. It's in a business complex so there's plenty of parking. It's a casual, cozy, and family-owned restaurant with a spacious seating area. The staff is welcoming and attentive. The menu offers all of the Vietnamese classics you're craving - steaming bowls of pho, vermicelli noodles topped with fresh vegetables, crispy banh mi sandwiches, stir-fries, and a variety of grilled meats like lemongrass pork and chicken. And if you're a boba lover, they even have bubble tea. Prices are reasonable, but here's a big tip: You get a 10% discount when you pay with cash. There's an ATM inside. There were a few hits and misses with our order, but overall we left feeling satisfied with our meal. The misses: *Vietnamese Iced Coffee with Condensed Milk ($5.95) - This was much sweeter and thicker than I expected! It tasted more like a dessert drink than an iced coffee. The condensed milk's sweetness overpowered the coffee flavor. I have a big sweet tooth, so I still enjoyed it. But if you're sensitive to sugar, you might want to skip this or ask for less milk. *Fresh Shrimp/Summer Rolls with poached shrimp,vermicelli, & peanut sauce ($7.95) - Not a fan. The rolls were bland and mostly just filled with vermicelli noodles. The peanut sauce was a let down. The flavors were off and it had a watery consistency. It barely tasted like peanuts. I don't know if they used too much vinegar or sugar, but either way... the ingredients were completely unbalanced. Now for the hits... We came for the STAR DISH: PHO! Every order comes with rice noodles, beef broth, white onions, scallions, and cilantro with a side of bean sprouts, lime, basil, and jalapeno peppers. We ordered: *Pork Chop Pho ($16.95) - I absolutely loved the lemongrass marinade (made with lemongrass, fish sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, & shallots)! The meat was juicy, sweet, and savory. I could tell the chef grilled it perfectly because of the smoky charred edges. *Rare Beef & Well Done Brisket Pho ($14.95 size small) - They did not skimp out on the protein here! The beef cuts were large, tender, and flavorful! The broth was the heart of the pho - aromatic, warm, and rich! The spices (cinnamon, cardamom, star anise, and coriander) made it taste even better. I always enjoy adding hot chili and hoisin sauce for that extra heat and sweetness. The noodles were silky smooth and soaked up all that beefy broth. Yum, yum! And you can't forget about loading up on the garnishes to add a satisfying crunch and more flavor in every slurp! Pho was the perfect comfort food on the coldest day of the year~

It looks like it's someone's house…read more There is some parking, but it can be hard to get in and out of the spots, since you're backing directly into the busy Goffle Road. The inside literally looks like someone's eat in kitchen/dining room. We were the first customers that day, but it did fill up. We ordered the summer rolls, the pho tai, and the combo pho (#6) along with lemonade and Vietnamese iced coffee. The main thing about this place is that it's homey and CHEAP. The large bowl of combo pho is only $9.25. The summer rolls are only $5.99 for four. The portions are a little smaller than other pho places, but the food does taste good. I especially liked their homemade chili hot sauce. Definitely would return if i'm looking for a lighter meal.

My vegetarian pho was okay, not the best I've had. It had peas, corn, and green beans that looked like they were from a frozen mixed vegetable pack.

Service was standard for a small family-run restaurant.

**3.5 stars** $6 -…read moreviet flan $17 - #16 house combo pho $17 - #18 rare eye of round & brisket $9 - 5 spring rolls Overall, if you are around Bloomfield and dont want to trek into chinatown, NYC, this will fufill your needs. the broth isnt as good as the ones in NYC. the noodle and meat portions are similar in portion as those from Chinatown but they are more expensive here ($17 here vs $14 in NYC medium bowl). the spring rolls are a bit thicker in size but doesnt have the same taste i am used to in viet food. the two things i wasnt too big of a fan of was the bean sprout quality and the prices. when it first arrived to the table, there were all mostly browning. i asked for another set, but the server said the batch they received was all like that and apologized. it wasnt a big deal but something to point out. the prices are higher across the menu compared to what ive experienced but totally understandable as there is probably not much viet food in this area. service is good. they give a small sample size of the spicy peanuts they also sell. lots of locals frequent this place. my favorite item here was the flan which was not that sweet and custardy!! gave a 4 stars as i would come back if in the area

We sat out in the patio which was by the parking lot so the view wasn't awesome but it was a beautiful morning in general. Def spacious inside and plenty of parking. Ordered a few things, the papaya salad was delicious, exactly how I used to have them with the perfect amount of sour from the lime and sweetness and spicy. The pork sticky rice? Add some hot sauce to it? Yeah it def hit the spot. Egg rolls from the vermicelli noodles were nicely seasoned and crispy. The fried fish, my god it was made PERFECTLY! The lemongrass noodle was def different but it somehow worked with the stew likeness. The rainbow drink is a tad creamy and sweet, hard to explain the texture but it was a nostalgic moment for me. We also had the homemade Tapioca pandan jello cubes? DUDE it was so hot and fresh, I felt a tingle as I was eating them! Haha PLEASE TRY THEM! Sad I didn't order more to go.

The summer rolls were refreshing and thankfully only had a small amount of Thai basil, as I find it to be too strong for my taste. The peanut sauce tasted more citrusy than like peanuts, but it was so tasty. You get two rolls cut in half and it is very big, I could only finish one roll. The whole reason I came was because I was craving pho, and it really hit the spot. The pho came preassembled and I wasn't able to add my own lime, but the ratio of everything was perfect so I didn't mind. The broth was a little cloudy but it was so delicious. The servings were big so I ended up taking about half of my bowl home. It didn't taste as good reheated but that's to be expected. The service was very kind and attentive, and their Thai tea is very yummy. They don't take tap so make sure you bring your physical card! They have a whole private parking lot, and you can enter through the front or the back deck.

We came here on a Friday night for some Pho and the grilled pork over rice. The pho combo option…read morewas as expected, flavorful, didn't disappoint. After learned that they couldn't add a fried egg and no sausage option with the grilled pork, I opted for the three meat combo over rice instead, beef, chicken and lamb. The meat were flavorful and honestly I couldn't tell between lamb and beef in the end. But it was so good, especially with the fish sauce, yummy. Kids enjoyed the fried rice and wanted more of the spring rolls. Only dish that we were thrilled by was the beef stew, ok to skip. The place is small with limited seating. If you are a party of more than four you could have a hard time with tables. There was just one small round table that could accommodate a part of six, but beyond that, they will have to put together a few tables which is a challenge on the weekends. Location is super convenient. There is a Haagen-Dazs right around the corner and a laundry mat. Drop off your laundry, get some Pho, then stop by Haagen Dazs for dessert, sounds like a perfect night.

I was back in my old neighborhood a while ago to do some things, and the folks suggested dinner at…read morethis small Vietnamese place. We arrived early, which was a good thing, as more and more people came in, including some families, and eventually there was a line of people trying to eat here. The service was friendly, though a tad slow, likely because they were overwhelmed. Since I had a headache, I got a Vietnamese Iced Coffee/Cà Phê Sữa Dá for $5.99. This was properly done, being lightly sweet with plenty of strong coffee flavor. On a side note, instead of the standard sriracha, they have a much tastier Vietnamese brand of hot sauce here, which I appreciated. We started with two appetizers. As they were out of the Curry Chicken Skewers/Gà Xiên Nướng Cà Rị, we started with the Lemongrass Beef Skewers/Bò Nướng Xả for $9.95, served with spring onion, fried onion flakes, and soybean peanut sauce. This was my favorite dish of the evening as the beef had plenty of lemongrass flavor, and was tender and juicy. The little side salad was a good accompaniment, and the sauce was nice, but not needed. I would recommend this heavily. We also got the Summer Rolls/Gỏi Cuốn for $7.49, with vermicelli, lettuce, mint leaves, pickled daikon, and peanut sauce. Said dish has a choice between shrimp and tofu, and we got the latter. These were standard with a slightly chewy wrapper and plenty of vegetables. This was nice and refreshing with a good peanut sauce. For my main dish, I got the Grilled Vermicelli Platter/Bún Thịt Nướng with Mỹ Tho vermicelli noodles, assorted vegetables, mint, and house dressing. The price depends on topping, and I got the $15.49 option with a combo of three, with my choices being pork, spring rolls, and beef. As with the appetizer, the beef was tender and had some lemongrass flavor. The pork was on the bone and likely marinated similarly to the beef and was also tasty, though a bit less tender. The spring rolls were freshly fried being hot and crunchy, though a little oily. They were my least favorite part, but I've never been the biggest fan of spring rolls, regardless of culture, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. The fish sauce added a mild sweetness to the cold vermicelli, and I liked the dish a bit more once I added their hot sauce as per usual. This was good overall and a good portion size to boot. Another person got a Pho with beef and brisket for $12.99, and there was also a decently priced Combination Pho/Phở Dặc Biệt for the same price as my entree. I tried a bit of the broth, which was good, and there were plenty of noodles. The last person, who was not as hungry, ordered a very reasonably priced Chicken Bahn Mi/Bánh Mì Gà for $8.95, which they liked. This was an above-average Vietnamese place, and I could see why there were lines to get in. The food was decently priced, the meat was cooked properly, and the portions were nice. I would recommend it if you're in the area and you're looking for Vietnamese food.

THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Only street parking. Like most restaurants in the area, there is no private parking lot. MIXED THOUGHTS --------------------------- = Nada. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = Dined in on a Friday evening from 5:45 - 7:00 and it was BUSY. Come early or else you'll have to wait for a table. CONCLUSION -------------------- = We've done takeout quite a few times from Pho Saigon and the results were mixed in the past, but, during our dine-in experience, everything was fantastic - didn't hurt that it was a double brick cold day and the pho was nice and warm!

We had a fantastic meal at Vietnam Central from start to finish…read more We kicked things off with the garlic shrimp, which immediately reminded me of tempura shrimp -- light, crispy, and coated in a creamy garlic sauce that was rich without being heavy. A great way to start the meal. Next up was the mango catfish, which was hot, crispy, and full of flavor. The mango brought an unexpected bit of heat and sweetness that worked surprisingly well -- definitely a standout dish and a pleasant surprise. For our mains, we both ordered the beef pho, which arrived piping hot, deeply comforting, and incredibly filling. Perfectly warming and exactly what you want from a good bowl of pho. Dessert sealed the deal. The flan was slightly overdone but still enjoyable, and the ube ice cream was excellent on its own. But when you combine the two? Pure bliss. Overall, a delicious and satisfying experience -- we'll absolutely be back. Service is fast and the decor is functional. A great find! Be sure to try it out.

Parking can be a bit tricky given its location near a major road, but there is metered parking right out front. One thing I really appreciated was the thoughtful packaging. Instead of wrapping everything in paper/foil (which traps steam and softens the bread), they use takeaway containers that keep the banh mi bread crispy and intact. The portions are generous! I don't think I've ever had a bahn mi with so much protein! I personally asked for extra cilantro on some of the sandwiches which is why the cilantro looks so obnoxious in the pictures. Everything was solid and satisfying! The lemongrass chicken bahn mi stood out with its aromatic flavor. The Saigon special bahn mi though, could've used a bit more presence from the mayo and pate to enhance the flavors. Sounds weird, but surprisingly, the sardines in tomato sauce bahn mi was better than it sounds. It was savory and definitely worth trying if you're feeling adventurous. The summer rolls were fresh, clean, and a great complement to the sandwiches. My only note: I wish the pickled carrots and radish had a bit more tang. They leaned mild rather than punchy. Overall, a reliable spot with thoughtful touches and flavorful options. I'd come back again.
