    New drink menu! (2/1/26)
    Ami Y.

    I haven't been to Market Pho in a while and I was craving something salty again after my long run, so I decided to go. I was happy to find out that they expanded their beverage menu to include fruit tea and boba!! They told us it's their first day with the new boba offerings. I was actually thinking about stopping by DIY tea after Market Pho so I was happy that I can get both boba and pho at Market Pho. I was very curious about the drinks, so I ordered peach tea with my pho and got brown sugar boba to go, when I was checking out. I like my fruit tea sweet (like not too crazy sweet but something that I don't feel like I'm drinking regular unsweetened ice tea with a whiff of fruit somewhere) and it was just the right level of sugar. The drink is giant (16oz -- it's probably not for other people but it is big to me) but the fruit tea went well with pho, and I was very thirsty so I downed it fast. I also liked they put pieces of canned peach and they stuck a long plastic spoon in the drink so that you can scoop out the peach and eat them. It's fun. I didn't have high hopes for the brown sugar boba but they got it right. It's a lot of drinks but I'm just going to say it's going to be my study snack for the night. The texture of brown sugar pearls is great but there's a room for improvement - some of the syrup did not integrate well with milk so I got some goopy pieces of syrup in my mouth, so it would be nice if the drink has a more smooth mouthfeel. But it tastes just fine, actually better than DIY, so I'm definitely coming back for more. People at Market Pho are lovely and I think that's also why I keep returning to the restaurant. Yay!

    Hands down the best pho restaurant I've been to in a long while! Market Pho in Ballard has a great location near transit and other shops, and finding parking is easy. The pho itself is exceptional, and the staff took time to guide me through the menu and help me choose the perfect dish. What really sets this place apart is the customer service. After landing from a long flight dealing with travel delays from government shutdowns, I arrived pretty frazzled. Andy went above and beyond by kindly letting me charge my phone while I enjoyed my meal. That kind of thoughtfulness makes all the difference. They also have TVs for watching sports games, making it a great spot whether you're dining solo or with friends. In addition, I overheard an homeless guy ask Andy for a cup of broth because he was hungry, without second thought Andy fed him. By all means, give this place a try you will not be disappointed!

    So happy there's a good Vietnamese restaurant in Ballard! Thanh Brothers is gone and now it's Market Pho and I'm glad about that. I never ate at Thanh Brothers because I generally don't eat pho. I know, I know, don't yell at me. I just don't eat soup much. I'm a dry food kind of person. So I was thrilled when Market Pho appeared and I saw that their menu included dry dishes along with the pho! I enjoyed my lunch of rolls: fresh rolls with tofu and peanut sauce and an order of super crispy pork egg rolls. My hubs devoured his chicken banh mi that came with a hot toasted baguette. It crunched when he bit into it! The vibe felt very casual and family friendly. Really liked that there were several Vietnamese families in there having lunch and chatting with what I think may have been the owner. Service was friendly, thoughtful, and fast. Overall, Market Pho was a great place for a good meal in downtown Ballard. We look forward to going back and trying more of their dishes!

    The service was great and the food was excellent. My vegetarian pho was delicious and well seasoned, which is rare for veggie broths. I will absolutely be back here! It smelled amazing when we walked in so I knew we made the right choice. It was maybe a little chilly by the window but the pho warmed me up and they have multiple sizes which is nice.

    The moment you walk in, the whole staff greets you with a smile. The noodles were on the overcooked side but i still liked the pho overall. Great broth and flavor. I would definitely go there again. Oh their bahn mi was great. I think i liked it even more than the pho.

The Chinese name, 全記麵家, has little to do with the name Mike, but is nevertheless an excellent choice for anyone in the area. The staff is very Cantonese through and through. It is a cash only establishment and their menu is heavy on the noodles, be it in soup form or dry. There isn't a ton of room for large groups, but the turnover is quick and thus the weights are usually quite minimal. Service is very good overall and super friendly. I would highly not recommend using their bathroom, as it's tiny, cramped, and not in the best condition. The noodle soups vary from wonton noodles to fishballs. They also specialize in beef brisket and fishballs, making this feel like a bit of a Hong Kong style cafe. Most of the soups average out to be $14-16, depending on size. It's a joy to watch them assemble the bowls in lightning quick fashion. Wontons are excellent. They're plump with just enough skin for texture and are complemented by a fragrant soup and very little skimpage on the noodle (#1). The large dumpling (aka "sui kau") is an excellent wonton alternative for those looking for similar textures. The beef brisket is tender and they also have a dedicated section for just congee. There aren't a lot of places like Mike's anymore, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second for an opportunity to come back. In fact, I'll make sure it's part of the Seattle rotation (#2) for whenever I'm back. __________ (#1) Read: very good portions. (#2) Unless of course, I'm on my way to Vancouver BC.

    I'm from the Bay Area and have tasted a lot of good ramen in my time, but even by that standard,…read morethis place is at least 95 percentile quality. Good noodles, good chashu, and delicious broth on their "Original" ramen (which is pretty much Tonkotsu, I think). It's lacking in nothing. I also appreciate the way they structure the menu: most toppings are optional (like egg and seaweed) in exchange for a modest base price. Yet even when you add stuff back in, the sum is still reasonable, e.g. with added seaweed and a shot of extra noodles, my bowl came out right around $20 after tax/tip. Service is quick and courteous. This place has only one problem: the wait is damn eternal. I waited 50+ minutes, and the only reason I got in that _fast_ was because I came solo and qualified for counter seating. The couple ahead of me in line waited at least 90... and this was on a Monday! But that's hardly the restaurant's fault.

There can be a long wait, though they are pretty efficient with service and turning over tables. I got the classic ramen with very firm thick noodles and standard broth thickness and richness.

Nothing was wrong with it, but nothing particularly stood out or felt unique either. Overall, a solid option if you are craving a classic bowl of ramen!

We got the preserved meat clay pot rice, salt and pepper fried fish filet, and beef brisket and wonton noodle soup. The clay pot rice was okay - the pricing is fair but the execution could be a bit better. I felt like the rice was a bit lacking in flavor, and they only have the standard soy sauce, not the ones in a sauce tray that is usually a bit sweeter. The salt and pepper fried fish filet was good - definitely recommend that for the taste and value. The noodle soup was also good - the wontons were okay but I loved the beef brisket.

This place is a true gem, serving satisfying, delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere at an affordable price. The restaurant looks small from the front, but space is used efficiently and they manage to fit quite a bit of seating into not that large of a dining room. Tables are mostly four tops, quite spacious at that, and surrounded by sturdy wooden chairs. I came for dinner on a Friday evening and there were a few other tables at any given time. Service was quick and our water never ran empty. We had the wontons in hot oil, topped with peanuts, I had the beef chow fun, and my dinner buddy had the pork with hot sauce noodles. The wontons are very very good, stuffed with flavorful pork and swimming in a sauce that sits in that perfect spot at the intersection of hot and sour. The peanuts and scallions add a delightful crunch. Their beef chow fun satisfies every bit of childhood nostalgia I have for this dish, with lots of wok hei, bouncy noodles, and the most tender of beef. I think my favorite beef chow fun in the city still lives at A+ Hong Kong Kitchen, but this is a close second. The portion here is also huge. I am a human vacuum and I actually brought leftovers home, which is rare for me. The pork with hot sauce noodles is seemingly a fusion of zha jiang mian and dan dan noodles. My friend really enjoyed it and actually finished the whole thing, which is saying something given that she doesn't usually eat that much. There are so many other items on the menu that I'm eager to try, so I will definitely be back.
