Fulton Pho - P1 extra oxtail, Green oil onion. Vinegar onions - Noodles Near Me - Arden-Arcade, California

First time visiting Fulton Pho in the Arden Arcade area. It was a rainy day so wanted to get some pho. Nice location though not much parking spots. The place was packed even at 3pm thus the reason for lack of parking spots. Not really a big place but inside is clean with plenty of tables and bar counter. Took a spot at the bar. Ordered a small chicken pho, egg rolls and an Ube coffee latte. The 3 pcs of egg rolls were very delicious and the chicken pho was very good! The broth was very tasty and very little MSG. Don't like reaching for water constantly due to lots of MSG. The Ube coffee latte was very good as well! The staff provided very good service and were very nice and courteous. Will be back again. read more

I happened to be near the Arden area and was looking for some soup for the rainy whether that's been happening recently and stumbled upon Fulton Pho. My immediate reaction to seeing a beef rib was that I HAD to try it so I ordered it along with some egg rolls and fish balls. As the service felt very homey and comforting I felt as if the Pho broth was sort of lacking in flavor as well as the meats. I found myself needing to use sriracha & hoisin sauce for some flavor. The egg rolls and fishballs were really nice with the sweet & sour sauce. Other than that I really enjoyed my first time experience here! read more

My husband and I went on a Saturday night and the place was not busy. Very chill and relax vibes. The service was amazIng. There was only one waitress working as the host, waitress, bus boy and cashier. She let us sit anywhere. She did everything and was super friendly and attentive. Although she was the only one w9rking, she kept our waters fills and bought us extra napkins without we having to ask. I ordered the house pho and I can honestly say it's the best pho I had in the Arden area. The broth was clear, flavorful and light. The meat was well seasoned, soft and perfectly cook. The meat was literally falling off the bone. This is now my to go pho place in Arden area. read more

4.5 Stars to Fulton Pho! This spot is still super yummy, with the egg rolls still being as delicious as they were 1 year ago. The pho portions are still excellent with lots of meat to noodles to broth. Ordered all the same items as before, except I got brisket & flank instead of meatballs. We also got a side of chicken wings. 4.5 instead of 5 stars this time as I felt the broth didn't have the same depth as before. Still my preferred local pho spot! read more

I always preface Vietnamese food reviews with "credibility." I travel all over the US and international. I've visited Vietnam several times. I love the food. I love the culture. This place is Pho-King awesome. I ordered the Dac Biet Pho, Smoked Brisket Banh Mi and Cafe Su Da. The broth in the Pho was delicious, nice a rich aromatics, collagen floating around on top. I added a small amount of lime and chili oil to my liking. 10/10 for me. Pho doesn't get much more authentic than this stateside. Smoked brisket Banh mi was tasty, I can understand why people like it. I prefer the traditional Dac Biet, but I wanted to try something different. I enjoyed it, 9/10. Cafe Su Da was flavorful and strong. The owner is very nice lady, I spoke with her and shared my appreciation for the food. Very humble and has a great business. Some pho spots can appear dirty, not this place. The dining area was spotless, the kitchen was clean and free of clutter. Go get some Pho-king awesome Pho in Fulton! I hope this review was helpful read more

I'm basically a regular at this spot. They know my order anytime I come in and their prices are fairly reasonable compared to other Pho spots near the area. The service is great, I never had a bad experience when I go here. The ambiance is relaxing and cozy if there's only a few people there, but it can also get busy when it's rainy. read more

I just moved to the area and this was the first spot I tried for dinner -- and it did not disappoint. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out hot. The pho broth was rich and comforting, and the portions were generous. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made it even better as a first experience in a new neighborhood. The place is clean, relaxed, and easy to enjoy. Honestly, a great first impression of the area. I'll definitely be coming back again! read more

Breaking news: Local Man Encounters Smoked Brisket Bánh Mì at Fulton Pho Restaurant, Survives In an unexpected twist at a neighborhood simple decor no-frills pho spot, a lone diner discovered a smoked brisket bánh mì on the menu last Friday afternoon. Reports confirm the staff for being warm and welcoming and the baguette was "crispy on the outside, soft on the inside," while the brisket, described as tender and garlicky, held its own. Eyewitnesses say the sandwich was "tasty, satisfying, and definitely worth eating," though early statements indicate it fell short of being a transformative life event. Authorities advise locals: don't expect enlightenment, but do expect a pretty good lunch. read more

Let's first start off with the pho. I love the combination option of pick 4. You want just flank steak. Order it 4 times. Others do 2 of flank and 2 of rib eye. Or add others. You get the drift. The actual broth is flavorful and makes this my go to stop and grab or door dash when I just want to stay home. However if you do decide to go and eat in, the first thing you'll notice is the place is epically clean. Not like some of the establishments that are authentic family establishments but lack the interior that makes you want to sit there. Hands down a great place, you might be switching your new pho spot. read more

Husband and I both got the house pho. The broth was pretty good. However, the rice noodles weren't as soft. It came in a small size bowl compared to most pho restaurants that I've been too but the portion was a lot. We both couldn't finish it lol. I think next time we'll just share. The ribs were pretty tender but there's no flavor on the meat. Ribs were plain. Great service though. I love the signature wall. Thought it was cool. We also ordered the combo banh mi to go. The sandwich was okay. read more

Sometimes you just want a simple and good bowl of pho. Fulton Pho came through in the clutch for some hearty pho. Smaller restaurant but has plenty of seating for small groups. The pho came out piping hot. P4 is a custom pho where you can choose up to 4 proteins. The broth was clean but a little salty at the end. Great portions! They have 5 different TVs playing different things. Service was good. Small parking lot. Prices are reasonable. read more

I wish I had known about this place sooner! A great hole in the wall off of Fulton Ave. I ordered the honeydew melon milk tea and the large custom pho with ribeye, flank, fatty brisket, and well done brisket. The honeydew melon milk tea was so good that I actually said "oh wow" out loud. The pho broth was delicious and not fatty at all. It was extremely hot so my noodles got a little bit chewy since I had to wait for everything to cool down so I could eat, but I didn't mind at all. The waitstaff was very friendly and checked in on me a few times while eating. It was really nice to sit and eat by myself while soothing music played on the restaurant speakers. I will definitely be visiting again to try some of their other menu items. read more

Fulton Pho - Noodles Near Me - Arden-Arcade, California

I went through a soup craving a little after 2pm on a weekday and was debating on pho or ramen and decided on trying this establishment based on previous Yelp reviews. I ordered to go. Their menu was less in line with the typical offerings (I haven't seen their variations of Pho since my stint in So. Cal.). I normally just get a Pho Tai but they didn't quite offer it + I was too hungry to care. Ultimately, I called in and ordered a smoked brisket pho. Upon arrival even after 2pm, there were a fair amount of folks eating inside. It was a small establishment with a decent amount of seating and clean. Parking wasnt an issue when I arrived. Quickly picked up my order and rushed back home. My order? Delicious! I probably need to expand trying different types of pho after this. The serving was pretty large for the price. Toward the end, I did observe it getting a bit saltier than I'm used to but overall I was very satisfied. Will return in the future! read more

Our usual pho spot was closed today so we decided to try somewhere new and I'm so glad we did. It's a small restaurant with about 9-10 tables. I ordered p.1 and it had all my favorite meats! Not to mention a huge beef rib with tender meat that practically falls off the bone! Super juicy. The broth was rich In flavor I couldn't stop drinking it! Usually I add some hoisin sauce to pho broth but I didn't have to at this place. Flavor was 10/10!!! Staff were very attentive to our beverages getting low. The only thing I wish the menu had was spring rolls. Can't wait to come back! read more

Fulton Pho - P1. Fulton House Pho - Noodles Near Me - Arden-Arcade, California

You know, if you had told me ahead of my recent Sacramento adventures that I'd end up discovering my new favorite pho joint up here, I'm not sure I would've believed you. Not to say that I thought it was impossible, I just would've thought it'd be more likely to happen in a place like SF or San Jose, in particular. Shows how little I knew about the relatively robust Vietnamese food scene around here! What's more, it's not even in the Little Saigon area either! As I pulled up to Fulton Pho, I really wasn't sure what to expect. All of their awesome Yelp reviews gave me confidence, but I'd be lying if I said the main reasons why I came here weren't my hunger, their proximity to where I was, and my perpetual craving for pho, even in 103 degree weather. While I very much appreciated how easy it was to park even in their small lot, the wealth of seating inside, and, of course, their strong A/C, the menu is what excited me most. It's not super extensive I've seen (apps, banh mi, and about a dozen noodle soup offerings, including pho, bo kho, and pho ga), but I still had to convince myself to stick with just my bowl of noodles (for the most part...). -- FULTON HOUSE PHO - Beef Rib, Ribeye, Well Done Brisket, Flank, Fatty Brisket, Tendon, Meatball...$16.95 This was fantastic! Not only did this have so many types of meat in it, but all of them tasted great. The rib was beefy and tender (meat fell right off), the ribeye and brisket were delicious, and the broth was super flavorful. Plus, this still had enough noodles to balance out the meats. YUM. -- SMOKED BRISKET...$5.95 Got this more to try and bring home than to add to my pho, but it sure was tempting to devour it at once. Each slice was so, so good - the pieces nearly melted in my mouth and I love how garlicky and well seasoned they were. If I could get a whole plate of this, I absolutely would! Along with the food, the other thing about Fulton Pho that I loved was how friendly the service was. The server who helped me was super nice, warmly greeted everyone who walked in, and came by often to refill my water and to see if I needed anything. Even though I've only tried their combination pho and signature smoked brisket, I can safely say that Fulton Pho easily ranks among my favorite pho joints anywhere, if not at the very top of the list. Despite how far they are from SF, the more impetuous side of me wouldn't be opposed to making the drive up here just to try more of the menu, especially their beef stew. Of course, that would mean not getting their combination pho again, which would be more than a little difficult to pass up.. Ugh...if only Fulton Pho was closer, I'd be here all of the time! read more

Fulton Pho - The goods!! - Noodles Near Me - Arden-Arcade, California

This is a cute little pho spot in the Arden Arcade area! The interior of the pho place is a little small and run down looking but the writing on the walls they had from customers was cute and made it feel a little more personable. I noticed there wasn't any air conditioning or fan so it was a little warm which is always tough for me when eating pho/soup. It's not too big inside but there's enough seating for a few parties. I ordered their house special pho named after themselves, and overall, it was pretty good. The quality of the pho was good, plenty of noodles, toppings, and meat. Quality of the meat is good too! The rib was the winner for me, so tender and falls apart beautifully when eating. My only thing was the broth was a little more bland than I had expected. It tasted a little more water down, just like it was missing that "oomph"/punch you expect from a hearty bowl of pho. There's not a ton of good pho places in the Arden area though so it's good enough for me to come back to but not my number one choice in Sacramento. Our server was a younger gentleman who was very nice but kept making a lot of jokes when serving us. It was fine at first but it got pretty excessive as we continue to get our food and we really just wanted to enjoy our meal as a family without interruptions. He was super nice though and I can see he wasn't acting with any malice or bad intentions so I decided to just not say anything about it. Overall the spot is cute and the pho quality is pretty good. Since I work in this area I may continue to visit in the future. read more

Their beef rib pho is fantastic! Friendly staff, although very small seating arrangement, can seat less than 50 at a time. They should move to a larger location read more

I got the pho and customized it with 4 meat choices and they weren't skimpy on the proteins! Noodles were cooked perfectly for me. The broth was on the clearer side but I can still faintly taste the spices. They provide bean sprouts on the side with thai basil and lime. It's not the most flavorful bowl I have had, but I added condiments and tailored it to my liking. Overall it's a solid bowl of pho. The eggrolls were meh but nicely fried. The service was good. I didn't have to wait too long. It's not a big establishment, and it appears to be family run. There's not many pho places in the area, so I would return if I'm in the area. read more

Fulton Pho - Kids chicken pho, Thai tea boba and banh mi - Noodles Near Me - Arden-Arcade, California

4 stars because the pho broth is actually just *that* delicious and the portions are enormous (perfect for hungry Americans) which also includes plentiful meat. My family loves it. My sweet tooth also enjoyed how super sweet the honeydew milk tea is (but that's a personal preference). As for everything else, I'm disappointed in the variety of menu options and the service was subpar. I understand that we visited on a holiday (MLK JR. Day) so they were extremely busy, but yet seemed short staffed -- tables were packed and not cleaned up quickly enough so customers were often standing at the door waiting for tables to be cleaned. The wait is worthwhile since the pho broth and noodles tasted amazing but I don't like the portioning (I do not like to bring home leftover pho and the restaurant only offers "small" or "large" which from glancing at other tables, is still too much for my appetite). I also do not like that they dumped so much [green] onions into the pho, which also includes the Kid Size pho, so keep that in mind if you have a little one that does not like onions. I ordered the Kid Size Meatball Pho (Pho Bo Vien) because I know I would be unable to finish their regular portions -- The first thing the server said to me was "How old are you?" My instinctive reaction mentally was to take offense because that came off as rude but I decided to assume he was joking and just replied that I do not like the larger portions of pho. He tried to lighten the mood by stating they're almost considered 5 stars, as a way to incentivize me to order something else on the menu, perhaps? (They are averaging 4.8 star reviews on Google). Well, we also ordered the egg rolls (that was all my husband wanted to try) and he told us they were out of egg rolls.. Okay.. but then later when we spoke in Vietnamese to one of the other employees, she said they did have some and she'll make some for us. The egg rolls were light and nicely crisp but I would not consider these egg rolls, more like spring rolls because of the cabbage filling and minimal or lack of meat whereas egg rolls tend to be on the heavier side and filled with ingredients like mung bean thread, mushrooms, ground pork, etc. so I didn't like them at all because I hate cabbage and do not order spring rolls yet the menu didn't list it as such. 3 "egg rolls" for about $8 is not my cup of tea. The dipping sauce was good though; tastes like a sweet and sour. I have not tried their banh mi sandwiches and neither am I interested so you'll have to peruse the other reviews for this opinion. The general consensus enjoys this restaurant enough to have the reviews that they do (they were sold out about 1-2 hours before closing when I visited). I live about a 10 minute drive from here but I'll only be returning for family lunches/dinners. I like the drink options but the limited options for appetizers and large portions+overload of onions in the pho deters me visiting again. The broth is amazing but not enough for me to "crave" that I can't get from homemade pho or my regular go-to pho location. I love pho but when I go out to eat, that's not the only thing I want so when other restaurants offer more quality drink + appetizer options, there's not much reason for me personally to come back to a restaurant that only specializes in pho and everything else feels Americanized. (For further context, I was born and raised for a few years in Southern Vietnam). But if you're looking for good Pho, this would be a decent option to add to your list of Pho restaurants to try out. read more
