We had dinner here a couple weeks ago when we were in the area, and it was overall an excellent experience. We (two of us) ordered to share: - Thai tea w/ boba: this was the least fave out of everything. I asked if the boba was fresh, and it was not fresh. The boba was hard and not chewy. This was on a late Sunday afternoon. - Cream cheese wontons: light, fresh and crispy outside, delish, smooth cream cheese inside. Dipping sauce was good. - Spring rolls: probably the best spring rolls I've ever had. I usually don't like rice paper, but it was so fresh and flavorful. Dipping sauce pictured was a perfect, unexpected pairing. - Rare steak & meatball pho: Very, very good pho! Fresh ingredients, lovely broth. Steak could have been rarer? Total was a little pricey for not really having a date night / night out ambience. It's more school cafeteria seating, but the food is definitely worth coming back for. read more

Favorite pho place in Utah! I most often get bún Thįt Núróng and spring rolls on a hot summer day because nothing else is as refreshing as that! I'm a repeat customer for sure read more

I moved to Provo recently. Our first meal was at Lovely Pho. Straight away 100%. As a strict herbivore and avid Pho eater, I will say that the veggie pho broth is outstanding. Very hard to find anything like this in depth and richness. I have lived in multiple cities and am always searching for the good pho. This is it. I have eaten at a multitude of pho places over the past 25 years or so. This new discovery is in my top 5 in the continental US. They invest serious time and care in this all natural broth. We ate there again on the second day and intend to frequent this place. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable about people's varied diets. They provide a bunch of limes, cilantro, basil and sprouts. For those who aren't aware, all of that goes in the pho! That's literally how you eat it. Don't waste it, those goodies are for consumption, not a disposable garnish! Please don't insult the hosts by discarding what they provide for you. Or if you don't want to eat traditional pho, just ask them to take away the delicious, aromatic herbs and freshies. The appetizers are great! The atmosphere is chill and there is plenty of space. You will be delighted by Lovely Pho. read more

Service- I've been sitting here for 30 minutes and they just served one of two tables of 5 people in front of me. Only two tables!!! Who knows how long it took for them to get their food. it took them an hour to serve food. An hour! I understand understaffing but I've never been to a pho place with more than three to five workers, and it's literally PHO. It takes about 30 seconds to make! The broth is made well ahead of time, noodles cook instantly, and the meat is raw and cooks in the broth. How the hell does it take an hour for them to serve pho? I've worked in a kitchen with 3 people serving food that is 10x as labor intensive as assembling pho and got it out in 1/6th the time. I'm usually pretty forgiving but this is mind bogglingly slow. read more

This place is great! Service was so friendly and the food was good for it being in Utah! It was good in general but most restaurants here lack authenticity. Defiantly will be back. read more

I had the fried wontons and the seafood pho. My husband had the house pho. We also got an order of the fried rice but were too full to eat it so we took it home in a to go box. The seafood pho was really good. Everything was so fresh. My husband got the avocado boba with mango pearls which was made with real avocados and tasted heavenly. read more

Lovely Pho - Chicken pho, with Thai basil, cilantro, sprouts, lime, and sriracha. - Vietnamese Near Me - Provo, Utah

Saw ratings and decided to try it. Super busy as they are one of the few places open on Sunday evening in Provo. Manager came out and apologized for the delay. Said they got really busy all at once. He let us know that the food would take a while. Very friendly service and the food was worth the wait. I think it's the best vegetarian Pho I've ever had. It was even beautiful to look at. After we finished our meal the chef came out to make sure everything was okay and apologized again for the wait. If I lived innProvo this would be my go to place to eat!! read more

Service is terrible. Waited over an hour for our food when there was no more than 7 people in the store. You can see into the kitchen and they would just be standing there. Food was average which made the wait even worse. Do not recommend read more

The broth is really good but I would have liked more meat. They do a good job packing to go orders. Thanks!

Delicious pho. We ordered take out for lunch. The man taking our orders was so nice. He offered suggestions and even a bottle of water while we waited. The portions were huge. In fact next time we could split one. The pho came in two containers; one of the soup and the other of all of the ingredients. Perfect amount of noodles, bean sprouts, jalapeños, meat and onions. Even had chili paste and hoisin sauce packets. They soup containers were perfectly taped up to avoid spilling. The dining room is super outdated but still has plenty of seating. My friend got the tea. She said it was probably the best one she's had. The parking lot is a giant disaster with reconstruction but don't let that stop you. Super authentic and worth it. read more

Absolutely phenomenal food. The wait staff are so kind, everything I've tried has been better than before. The brisket and beef pho is a must try.

I will be returning frequently to continue making my way around the menu. read more

Yummy authentic pho in the little town of Provo. They have vegan pho with vegan broth! Owner is caring and honest man. I will be visiting on our next road trip. Highly recommend their boba drinks! (Avocado smoothie was pleasantly refreshing and tasty) read more

Service was slow and understaffed. Every table was waiting for food. Restaurant was bit dirty which I didn't care as I was hoping that it would translate to a great meal...It just missed the mark. Pho was so so. read more

First off, if the owner offers a suggestion for your boba tea, take it. He knows what he's talking about (a bit of coconut in my chocolate milk tea was FIRE EMOJI). Second, walking in gave a sense for what we were in for - and that sense was *smell*, as in it smelled fragrant and spicy, like I like my pho. The spring rolls were on point and fresh with just the right amount of mint. The pho was delicious - wish I had ordered it with the rare steak on the side so I could have cooked it to my liking (rare) but that was *my* mistake, not theirs. Service was great, portions were fare, and food was delicious. What more can you want? Maybe that they'd move north to Ogden, lol! read more

Slow service We waited for a long time for our food even though the restaurant had few customers Food quality I asked for the B1 and most of the meat was just fat. read more

great service, they are awesome! they brought me water without me asking and were just super attentive

Forgot to take pictures until it was too late! This place is so good, we chose it over two pho restaurants closer to us because they have truly vegetarian options. Not only is the owner vegan, he's also very kind. Another non-food reason we liked this place is that it was very clean and we were the only ones there most of the time. We actually felt comfortable eating in during this time of COVID-19. We did see a lot of take-out being picked up and it's good to know that that's a solid option. Okay, now the food: We had the vegetarian spring rolls with peanut sauce. I enjoyed the tofu and herbs, it was a great spring roll. My husband ordered the rare steak and brisket pho and loved it. He was such a fan of the brisket, he said he'll order just the brisket pho next time. He adored the beef broth. I ordered the vegetarian pho and was really impressed by the deep umami flavor of the broth! It had several layers of flavor and I could tell that a lot of work went into its creation. Oh, and our 1 y/o also loved the broth. We'll be back for sure. read more

Great pho, quick and friendly service, and fresh made drinks. Really nice little gem for the area!

Expensive but it's a must if you love Pho. I don't think it's ever been busy when I went

Me, and my boyfriend come here all the time, it's currently our new number one spot! It's the best pho place in the county, real authentic Vietnamese food! We strongly recommend trying the pho's it's so delicious, and very much flavorful! The fried noodles with chicken is something to die for, we tried it out of curiosity, and it was the best decision ever, the seafood pho is always amazing!!! Something about the crab and fish in the citrusy broth just makes me so happy! We also suggest to get the calamari appetizer! The service is very good, very friendly staff, super super clean! The female cooks where hair nets, and that's very rare to see nowadays. This place is worth every single cent! SUPER VL read more

I love lovely pho! Pho is very authentic and yummy. Service was quick. One of my favorite pho places in Provo.
