    The pho and the summer rolls are so good. I would definitely be back to try other things. Everyone was so friendly even getting there about 40 mins before closing. We even ordered bubble tea before leaving and it was delicious. The restaurant is a nice size, colorful and inviting. It was my first time there and my friend's second.

    Great pho in a local neighborhood is amazing. The menu is more expansive than most other Viet places but it's always nice to have to variety to switch it up. Spring rolls were nice and crisp and the pho was really good. The soup was only a little oily but it wasn't drenched in MSG to the point where I'm dying of thirst...it actually tasted pretty good. Drinks were pricey but the non-bubble teas are ok. Service was fast and there was always a person coming by to check on us...not sure if that's good or not depending on how much privacy you want. The place itself is a lot larger on the inside than it looks from the outside but it's good cause then there's easier chances of getting a table during the busy nights.

    Spring rolls yum

    Another Asian Heritage month win! Now I can say I love pho & Vietnamese style food. We have a few diff appetizers that were surprisingly so good. The calamari & spring roll things were very different but good. And, the way the chicken was as if barbecued so flavorful Omg I literally look forward to returning. I'm sure this place has my bar high. Now, I will say, my friend made better homemade flan than this. I only had flan once but she made me love it...until this. This flan was bitter to me. I couldn't eat it all. The service was good, they only took forever to bring one persons food from our 10 person party so she was a bit annoyed. Otherwise, vibrant environment, they play a birthday song on the speakers of the entire restaurant & give a dessert to the bday person in your party lol. It's in a great location with a free parking lot as well. Go, enjoy!!

    Dinner was delicious, though it was pricey. Portions are huge. We got the U6 - grilled pork with noodles and fresh side vegetables. It was definitely enough for me and my boyfriend to share. The pork was delicious. The servers were very attentive and helpful.

    Grilled Pork Chops was Perfectly made!

    Had for Lunch the Chin Nam Gau Gan Sach Pho and it was good! Flavours was good,good brith and not too salty. Noodles were good with a good amount. Beef and tripes were good but I wish it had come with more quantity for the price that you pay. Still, solid pho

    I grew up eating Vietnamese. Evening of 2/19, I entered Kung Fu Pho. Place is nice and open. Parking was not an issue so that is a plus. I was greeted right away and got a table. Service was good and quick. However, the food says otherwise. I ordered Summer Rolls with fish sauce, Spring Rolls, and a number 1 Pho combination plate with no tripe. Summer Rolls (1 out of 10) - it was overstuff with diced lettuce. It was also missing cucumbers and had very little rice noodles. Spring Roll (5 out of 10) - it was crispy and edible. Not sure what was missing, but something tasted off Pho (1 out of 10) - size of bowl was great. I always take a sip of the broth to taste and see what else is needed. Broth was very bland. I tasted a lot of grease at the first, so that was already a red flag. I drowned my pho in hoisen, and I still could not finish it. It had no type of flavor AT ALL. I left Kung Fu Pho feeling dissapointed. I was hoping for more because they were a lot pricier than the spot I usually go to. I originally wanted to order food to go, but given that the food told me otherwised - I left emptied handed. Hopefully the team will revisit the quality of the Pho.

    Our mom just arrived in NJ from Vietnam so we went here to have dinner. The restaurant is very nice with the Vietnamese Style Decoration with plenty of seats and larger round tables for large groups. The ambience was nice and cozy. Everything was very clean. The food was okay, but not really good, especially with the high price. As Vietnamese, we expected the food to be more authentic. We ordered Beef with Satay Sauce and Beef Noodle Soup with Satay Sauce. Both were okay but didn't have authentic taste to them. The meat is quite tender and juicy. We also ordered Cơm Tấm Sườn bì Chả. It ứa again okay. The staff was friendly, but it was weird that not one of them is Vietnamese. It was almost like the restaurant is ran by other than Vietnamese. This is a turn-off point for us. We think we may not come back here.

    Mediocre Vietnamese foods. Attentive staffs, lots of spaces. The price is pretty high compare to foods' quality but it's jersey city so it's understandable.

    Taking over the old Abbondanza Trattoria location in Liberty Harbor North, Kung Fu Pho just opened this past week on Thursday. In a fortuitous coincidence, happened to walk by a couple of days right before the grand opening and snagged a menu. There are a lot of items on the menu here, will be able to satisfy all your pho, bun, rice, and spring roll cravings. Replacing New Thanh Hoai in downtown Jersey City is a tough task, but I think these guys are up for it. I am reserving a star because 1) It's just opening week and 2) I've only had a chance to just try out a couple of items on the menu. That being said, I think I'll be back here a lot. I wonder if I can claim a designated table... :) Anyway, today happens to be a hot 91 degree summer day and a steaming hot bowl of pho is a bit ambitious (not I, says the wife). I went with lighter fare, the Banh Cuon Cha Lua (item U11 if you're looking for a recommendation). This is a plate of fresh rice noodle wraps stuff with minced pork and wood-ear mushrooms. On the side are refreshing palate cleansers such as shaved lettuce, pickled carrots, fresh cucumber spears, and blanched bean sprouts. It comes with this nuoc mam dipping sauce (the same one you get with fried spring rolls) that adds some acid and sweetness to the dish. Highly recommended if you're looking for something light and refreshing. Wifey got #6, the combination pho with well done eye of round, brisket, tendon, and omosa. I'd tell you how it tasted but sadly she didn't offer me any. So... I guess it had to have been delicious! Looking forward to coming back again! FYI, in case any of you have been in this hood for 12+ years, one of the servers here used to work at the original Nha Trang, the name of New Thanh Hoai's original location on Newark. Definitely stop by to say hi if you recognize him!

    Why did they give me sauce spicy sauce? Where's the mayo?

    I was very excited to have a walkable place for banh mi. But here I am out $12.95 for the worst banh mi I've ever had. I lived near Falls Church, VA for five years--the best place for a Vietnamese sandwich in the country. And compared to that, it's way off. The pork looked like lunch meat; very thin. Barely any Vietnamese mayo. Pate was lacking. Had a lot of cucumber for some reason. The bread had no crunch; just plain out of the bag. I was tempted to trash my sandwich but I ended up making my own Vietnamese mayo and made other modifications to get it right, which no one should have to do. Also, my partner wants to add info about his order from a few days below: - The summer rolls are 90% lettuce. - The Uber Eats prices are higher vs. in-store prices, so customers are having to eat the cost of doing business online. Hate to say it--but it's a pass.

    The food is great (tasty and delicious) and the service is very good…read more Ambiance is nice too. I have been coming here more than 5 times, this is my spot for Vietnamese food. I highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.

    $75+ for the tiniest portions we have ever gotten. Called for takeout and picked up ourselves - not…read moredoordash or uber eats. Left a $10 cash tip which we regret after opening the food. Stuffed calamari ($25) - there were literally 3 in the dish. 3. I ate one and you're seeing everything else we got. Beef rendang ($24) - 4 pieces of beef. Not wagyu... Pork w spring rolls on vermicelli ($24) - reasonable enough portion but very overcooked. Should be a staple of any Viet spot so idk what they're doing here Would call them right now but they close at 9.... on a Saturday.... I will update this review if I'm able to reach them during biz hours for a resolution but this is easily the most disappointing meal I've had all year. Save your hard earned money and go to Ela's greek or literally anywhere else on this block, even Dominos. EDIT: Went in next day and spoke to a manager, only mentioned portion size and showed the picture, didn't get a chance to say anything about everything being overcooked. He had clearly heard these complaints about portion size before, because he immediately launched into saying the cut of beef + tendon they use for the rendang yields that as their standard portion size. He refunded the calamari. I still won't be going back and would never recommend this place, but wanted to acknowledge the resolution. Also my husband unfortunately wasn't there to speak to them, but he's been in restaurants for 25 years and knows they served chuck, not a fancy cut...

    A Decade of Love on a Plate: A Local Favorite That Punches Above Its Weight…read more This place is the definition of a neighborhood gem--the kind you almost want to keep secret, yet can't stop yourself from praising. Cheap and cheerful on the surface, it punches way above its weight class, delivering inventive, clean, Asian-inspired food that's masterfully cooked by clearly skilled hands--and made with real love. I've been coming back year after year for most of this restaurant's 10-year lifespan, and that consistency is no accident. Every dish tastes intentional, thoughtful, and deeply satisfying, with a clear goal: to feed people love on a plate. It's a super veggie/vegan friendly that easily wins over even my "meat and potatoes" husband--who happily cleans his plate every time. In an era where genuine hospitality feels increasingly rare, Perry single-handedly restored my faith that quality service is not extinct. Warm, attentive, and authentically kind, Perry makes every guest feel seen, welcome, and cared for--without pretense or attitude. This is food that nourishes, service that uplifts, and a place that keeps you coming back not just for the flavors, but for how it makes you feel. A true neighborhood treasure.

    Mediocre food and very slow service!…read more This place was a disappointment for what I hoped from a highly rated ramen place in the area. The service was quite slow, almost waited 1 hour for entrees to be brought to the table. It's a small place with limited staff working everything. The food was fairly basic. The fried rice seemed to be bland and below par despite ordering the spicy version. My friend who ordered the ramen liked the soup but the meat was not fully cooked and felt chewy.

    We've lived up the block from this place for 3 years and finally sat down to dine in. It was empty…read moreand the girl serving us was the only one there and didn't really provide us with customer service. We had to wait 15 minutes just for our sodas. The dishes are very unique in cultural sourcing - it's not what you expect of a regular Chinese restaurant. The servings are HUGE and good for 2 servings. The ambiance is not that great even though there's a big space and there was a lot of junk sitting around the place like extra stock of drinks and boxes all over the place. I don't think people really eat-in here. When I did takeout, it was still not worth the price of other similar restaurants in the area. Also this place doesn't have combinations sold together -- you have to buy rice on the side for EVERY dish which is not a traditional way to serve each dish in general. The prices here are not worth trying it - way overpriced and overcharged! Should be more affordable since we do not get the rice with the combination plates.
