?!?!?! HUH???? ok so all pho is delicious to me so i've been hopping around between different pho places being like "this is all delicious but there is no spot that i definitely feel like is the spot." THIS IS THE SPOT. first of all, they have thai tea AND bubble tea AND vietnamese coffee AND egg banh mi (upon request) AND pho... i feel like so many places either have vietnamese coffee OR thai tea?? or they don't do egg banh mi?? this has ALL OF THEM secondly, huh???? that was a small?? i know pho "small" is always huge, but i feel like i usually slurp up all the noodles, and then i'm like... well now there's just broth... but if i ask for extra noodles, then i'm in noodle hell. this had noodles and meat the ENTIRE way through. idk how they did it. i think it's a mixture of extra noodles and also the broth was actually so noticeably delicious like i just kept just drinking spoonfuls of the broth when usually i'm pretty focused on the noodles. but this time i was balanced between noodles and broth and omg i am so full also the thai tea is so pretty!! it's not just like all bright orange, it looks so pretty and tastes awesome and then??? huh???? $25??? the price??? it's still crazy to me that pho prices have gone up so much over the years, but this feels like totally doable and not guilty at all also staff was very attentive!! and it was not super huge and busy, but also not dead!! i will definitely be coming back!! read more

Came here after seeing their beef rib pho on social media. We ordered three beef rib phos, seafood pho, egg rolls, spring rolls, and another fried dish. Overall, it was just okay. The beef rib itself was really good, but the pho broth was pretty standard and didn't have much depth or complexity. Everything looked impressive, but the flavors didn't quite match the presentation. Staff were friendly and the experience wasn't bad at all, just a little underwhelming. It definitely satisfies a pho craving, but I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back. read more

The best pho I've had in a long time. The broth was rich, flavorful, and comforting, and everything tasted fresh. The portion size was generous, the meat was tender, and the noodles were cooked just right. The service was friendly and quick, and the place had a nice casual atmosphere. Definitely a great spot for pho in Bellevue. I'll be coming back again. read more

I Love Pho was a good place to stop for lunch after running an errand nearby in Factoria. We ordered the fried chicken wings, beef pho and combo vermicelli noodles. The wings were crispy and under-seasoned and the beef pho was good though we would've liked the broth to be be served hotter. Plus side is the egg roll and shrimp in the combo meal were delish and cooked perfectly. However, the grilled pork was too dry. While the food was okay, the staff were friendly, plentiful and helpful. read more

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my recent experience here was extremely disappointing. The service was inattentive and slow from the moment we sat down. To make matters worse, before I even took a bite of my pho, I found a fly floating in the broth. Sanitary standards and basic customer service need a serious overhaul at this location. I won't be returning. read more

Every time I shop at the Southgate Oriental Market--and since the weather here is almost always rainy--the pho smelled so good that I finally decided to give this place a try. Back in California, I went on a mission to find the most authentic, best pho, so my expectations are usually super high. This time, though, I just wanted to satisfy my craving for a hot bowl of rice noodle soup, not go full-on food critic, lol. The ambiance was nothing fancy but it was spacious. The Bathroom was fairly clean. Tables were a bit crowded with sauces and condiments; the sauce bottles were all open and the spoons and sauce plates weren't super clean... that's okay, I guess some germs make me stronger. The brisket was super tender and meaty--I enjoyed it. The noodles were a bit overcooked, though, and there wasn't enough cilantro or onions for my taste. My kiddo ordered fried wings, which were just... okay. Spring rolls? Meh, sorry. But the pho itself was satisfying enough to curb my craving, so overall, everything was okay. The server was attentive and friendly. I forgot to grab a banh mi to go. read more

We decided to visit because it came recommended, and while it was quite busy, we gave it a try. The fresh rolls were excellent, and my I love pho dish was satisfying. Unfortunately, my friend's chicken dish was tough and difficult to eat. And when we mentioned it, the response felt dismissive. Service felt a bit rushed, and a dirty glass didn't help the experience. We appreciated the good parts, but overall left feeling disappointed. read more

Tried giving this place another chance after years. Years ago remember the food being okay but a bit pricey and not the best service. Sadly not much has changed. Ordered the I Love Pho and the broth was good but I noticed the beef tendon I was biting into had a hair like thing in it. I immediately lost my appetite and investigated. It was not a long black hair but nasty enough it was a long black string which also shouldn't be in the food. I had to raise my hand to get a server to help me. He grabbed the older gentleman who immediately did apologize and gave me a weird explanation basically admitting fault and saying this happens. Seems food safety is not priority here. He offered me a new bowl or something else and said he would not charge me but I lost my appetite and couldn't trust it after that so I decided to leave and won't be returning ever and don't recommend. read more

Excellent service. They are always very kind and generous. That is the main reason I always return l. Food is great as well

Was in the area to watch a movie and wanted to try their Vietnamese coffee. Coffee was authentic in flavor and very strong. Service was fast and they have a good amount of seating there. I would definitely come back for the coffee and try some of their food items too. read more

I have been here multiple times now. Their pho is very average at best. Especially nowadays, many pho restaurants have really stepped up their game while this place....hasn't changed much. I think it may be the star anise... The broth has a distinct difference that does not work quite well for me and it is different from other places. Today though I felt like venturing out and ordered their egg noodles with wontons and Chinese-style BBQ pork and it was actually surprisingly good! If I had to review just based on today's experience, I would have given this place 4 stars. Portions were big and I love all the veggies they put in here. It really makes the broth more multi-dimensional in terms of aroma and taste. The service is always solid. Ambiance is okay too. Don't come here expecting some romantic dining experience but the inside is well maintained and service is fast and unmemorable in a positive way. read more

Solid place in Bellevue to get some pho. Compared to other places, the service is a bit slower in terms of getting our food. I'm used to receiving our pho in like 5-7 minutes at nearly every restaurant but it took at least 10-15 minutes. I'm not sure if it's because they do so many dishes that have to prep more, but it was wait. Nothing super fancy, just a casual establishment. The taste is pretty similar to other places. I'd say other places give us a bit more meat than this. In a pinch, this is not bad and will still hit the spot. read more

Casual Vietnamese restaurant. Plenty of seating. Our food came out pretty quick, and the beef pho I got was excellent. Don't have any bad critiques for this restaurant. It's affordable as far as pho goes. I may return if I'm in the area. read more

My family and I have been going to I Love Pho for YEARS and up until this past year, they have been my go-to restaurant for pho. The past couple of times that I have ordered beef pho from here have been quite disappointing, especially knowing what it has tasted like all these years. I loved the broth here because it was so rich and flavorful, but now it feels a bit watered down and very much lacking in flavor. I'm not sure what they had changed, but please change it back :( read more

Great place for pho: hot broth to sooth my hunger - gotta have those freshly fried egg rolls and the Banh Mi Nice clean restaurant and quick service read more

This is one of my absolute favorite pho spots! I usually order pho every time I come, but today I wanted to try something different, so I ordered the Mongolian beef. I was honestly so surprised -- the beef was incredibly tender and literally melted in my mouth. The sauce was also amazing, and I kept saying "wow" while eating because it was that good. I'm so happy I discovered such a delicious dish unexpectedly! I'll definitely be strongly recommending this place to my friends and family. read more

I had a great experience here. The small order of pho is huge and I could only eat 2/3 of it (and I order pho a lot)! It came out fast, hot, and had a very big portion of beef in it. read more

I ordered shrimp curry. The curry only had 2 pieces of shrimp and the rest of it was corn. Should rename to corn curry! read more

The pho here is so good!! Being Vietnamese I am a harsh critic when it comes to pho, but it is so delicious here and the portion sizes are amazing! I love when there are a ton of herbs in the pho makes it so good. The broth is nice, clear, and didn't make me feel ick after from MSG. We also got the fresh rolls and those were good, no noodles in it though which is fine since there are noodles in pho lol Always a little interesting when they serve other cuisines at a pho restaurant but most people were having pho. It is a great spot if you are craving! read more

I Love Pho - Meatball pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

We came here for a quick lunch on a Tuesday afternoon because my husband was craving pho and he mentioned he's been here before. It was fairly busy since it was lunchtime but we got seated right away. We each ordered a small pho (one D and G). One with brisket and meatballs and the other with brisket and rare steak. The food came out pretty quickly and we were pleasantly surprised how big the bowls were for being the small size. Overall it was okay but I didn't think the broth was especially flavorful and my husband wanted the broth to be hotter. Maybe it's just preference? The food was fine but I guess nothing stuck out to me and also, $14 for a small pho?? I wonder if prices for all pho places have gone up! read more

Around $15 for a bowl of pho. The soup was average and I think it was missing something (the essence of the beef fat?).

Food was delicious and fresh. Usually just get pho but tried out some of their other dishes this time like the katsu which was better than many teriyaki restaurants. Friendly and quick service! read more

I've been here a couple times in person and done take out once - all great experiences! Huge menu that includes items outside of Pho, if part of your party wants the standard rice and meat etc. The tofu appetizer is actually really good, and I don't even like tofu! The egg rolls are also good, but my go-to will always be spring rolls. 2 regular bowls and an appetizer feeds two people for ~$30 before tip read more

Ordered from here on Uber Eats and holy the portion sizes for the 2 dishes I ordered were huge. I got the chicken vermicelli bowl and prawn with veges and both of the portions were huge, probably enough for 3-4 people rather than 2. Overall the flavor was alright, not much different than other places. read more

I was just there today with my wife and grandkids. I have to say this place is really family friendly and they also have boba. Great service and food read more

Most barren sandwich ever. The ingredients are TRYING to be there, and it's like 1 string of cilantro (see photo), 1 pinch of pickled veggies, a thin slice of cucumber, and the smallest chili piece, tinier than anything I've ever seen. I hate leaving bad reviews and I wish I had more good things to say, but the whole thing was basically bread and mayonnaise. My friend's sandwich (also the special) looked the same, except they forgot the chilies in hers, and we did not opt out of any ingredients. Just appalling. We ordered at a lunch time and did a pick up. I understand if they have a shortage of ingredients due to the pandemic, in which case a heads-up would be nice, but receiving a skimpy sandwich was extremely disappointing. Based on other photos and reviews here, I was expecting a full sandwich.... I will not be back. read more

I visited I Love Pho to get takeout pho (had to) my friend and me for our weekly takeout dinner on Mondays, as we were both craving some pho on a rainy day. While searching on Yelp, I decided to give I Love Pho a try, and it was solid. I was able to easily order ahead of time through their website and set it for a 7:30PM pick-up that same day. Located in Factoria in a business strip across from the mall, I went in to get the takeout and it was all neatly wrapped in a bag, ready to go by the door. In and out, just like that. Because of how neatly our entrees were all wrapped up for us, we were able to simply assemble our bowls, with the toppings in a separate bag, broth in a separate bowl and the rice noodles under the protein in another bowl. They also gave us a small packet of hoisin and sriracha. I recommend making sure you have some on hand if you're getting takeout, depending on how much sriracha or hoisin you want to add to your bowl. I ordered my pho with brisket and rare beef and my friend had the tofu one. Her broth was a chicken-base, so not sure if there's a true vegetarian pho, but something to note. I enjoyed how hearty my beef broth was, and would say it was my favorite part of the pho. The broth was fragrant, but had a savory taste to it, from the simmer of the beef bones. I was also glad that my rare beef was indeed rare, so just basically cooked once it was dunked into the hot broth. Overall, glad to have found this pho spot in the Factoria area, as it's a solid option for when you're craving pho after shopping across the street. Or getting takeout with a friend while you watch The Bachelor. Whatevs. read more

Great lunch. We've been doing takeout, but today went back in person. Enjoyed the efficient service and pleasant environment. Fresh spring rolls were better than even with lots of herbs and crispy lettuce, along with the shrimp inside. Enjoyed them with the accompanying peanut sauce and a bit of Sriracha. My other had his fav, the lemon grass chicken. He said was delicious and a generous portion he got it with the Salas and loved the dressing. I had the small pho with rare beef, and it was a perfect bowl of comfort. Came with the expected lime, sprouts, basil and jalapeños. Loved it. Really good neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant! read more

If I could describe I Love Pho in one word -- it would be consistent. Been coming here for pho for 10+ years now and they have always been consistent in terms of quality and service. I Love Pho is one of those places that have been engrained in some of my core high school memories and stopping by every now and then for pho always makes me nostalgic. The pho itself is also pretty good! Definitely my favorite pho restaurant on the east side. The broth is consistently flavorful and the ingredients are generally pretty fresh! Would recommend for anyone looking for a comforting bowl of pho on a rainy day. read more

Although we have never dined in, I can attest to the take out meals we have ordered... and it's been many! One of the best pho restaurants around. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, and speedy service. Recommend all the pho, lemongrass and veggies, and the wonton soup. Yum! read more

COVID-19 take out experience: We got take-out this past Tuesday for lunch and this place was pretty busy! I've been coming here for years and always like their vermicelli noodle salad bowls! This week we finally ordered their pork banh mi sandwiches for takeout and they were delicious!! Better than the three other places we've recently tried. The sandwiches were also pretty big, like a foot-long soft baguette! As always, be careful of the jalapenos, I always immediately take them out or else my mouth is on fire read more
