I wanted to leave 1.5 stars. The food was not good at all. At least not what we ordered. The Chicken Pad Thai: the chicken was very low quality. The description read that it had: bean sprouts, eggs, and topped with ground peanuts. I saw none of that. Just chicken and noodles. The sauce was very very salty and was one note in its flavor. No nuance, just flat and salty. The chicken fried rice: once again barely any flavor. The menu read :bean sprouts, cilantro, egg, and onions. Little specs of green, maybe onion but not enough to taste. I saw no sprouts or egg. There were big clumps, balls of - white rice, throughout. The egg rolls: tasted like they were packaged frozen. Not fresh. We had been wanting to try this restaurant but were disappointed. read more

This was our first visit, and it absolutely blew us away. The appetizer combo platter was perfectly crisp across the board, the honey walnut shrimp were addictive, and the pork belly banh mi was incredible--beautifully toasted bread, crisp and sweet pork belly. The beef pho had a perfectly seasoned broth that was so satisfying. Every dish was cooked to perfection, and the flavors were incredible. And the bubble tea - the boba had the best texture, and the milk tea was perfectly balanced in sweetness and flavor. Service was great, everything was spot on. We'll definitely be coming back many times! read more

Extremely disappointed with the food here. Ordered yesterday via uber eats. Upon receipt of my order I was surprised to find the cardboard carrier stained with grease when my order was for a chicken pho and vegan pho with a small pint of white fired rice. Two different broths came in the order neither of which were labeled, the siracha and hoisin sauce were visibly dripping oil making them impossible to open, and there were no utensils. As we began unpacking, the chicken looked a bit peculiar, vegetables in the vegan Pho looked presentable and fresh. Both broths tasted stale and lacked any good flavor, the peculiar looking chicken was just bits of chicken fat that had been boiled there was barely any consumable meat in the entree. Overall my lowest ranking pho restaurant in the area which is a shame considering their location. read more

Last minute choice for birthday celebration dinner and no regrets at all! Food was reasonably priced with large portion sizes. Made with fresh ingredients. Ambiance was very comfortable with our server being the best around! I enjoyed the Triple Beef Pho Soup with extra veggie package. Side of fresh spring rolls served with peanut sauce. Highly recommend this eatery to anyone wanting comfort, good food, and customer service bar none. read more

Stopped in for lunch after shopping next door at the antique store. We both ordered pad Thai chicken. The food was hot, but zero Thai flavor or peanuts. The tofu was rubbery, and the dish had a weird vinegar taste. We didn't eat more than a few bites. Should have known better when the dining room was empty and the only customers looked like bar regulars. read more

My mom & I ate here one time on a quiet evening, and the food, service & ambiance were very good. However, when we tried to return on a Sunday night (they were listed as open on Yelp) it was dark - someone decided to leave before closing! No sign, no excuses - Not okay. read more

After a long hard day running errands I was excited to try someplace new for take out before heading home. I wish I heeded the previous reviews. I ordered chicken phad Thai. It is usually the simplest and yummiest dish at most Asian restaurants. I ate some and I have to say I've never had slightly sour, no peanut taste, very little flavour phad thai before today. I ordered a 1 of spice out of 5. Just because I ordered low spice shouldn't mean little flavour. I had to go into my pantry and add sauces to the dish. I was really hoping to prove wrong the other reviews but unfortunately they were right. I really hope they take these constructive reviews to heart! We need good places. read more

YUM!!!! Exactly what I've been looking for. Noodles are amazing and so is the fried rice

Just did carryout food yesterday and it was excellent! Wonderful pho (had both a chicken pho and a beef pho). Also had an incredible (really) General's chicken and a honey walnut prawns. We'll be back soon. I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Visually, it looks good. Customer service was good, and the server was super nice. I've had somd good Pho from plenty of places. This was not it. Tasted like hot water with that got very little to no flavor from the mound of onions and sad meat in it. There wasn't enough Sriracha to make it better. Egg rolls were ok. It could've used some seasoning, too. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would and they would absolutely deserve it. We got seated and placed our order. An hour later the waitress comes by to tell us that "they were busy and hadn't started our food yet". They kept claiming they were backed up with to-go-orders but the entire time that we were there (an hour) they only sent out 3 to-go orders and not a single seated customer was served. No apologies or anything offered, just say at a booth for an hour waiting before getting up and leaving. Quick tip, if you're only able to get 3 orders out in an hour and feel swamped, maybe the restaurant business isn't right for you. read more

Service is fast and friendly. Food is absolutely delicious. Ambiance is cozy on one side and fun on the other!

Service left a lot to be desired. Extremely slow. Only one person for the entire restaurant. Food also left a lot to be desired. Bland, stale, not tasty. The vermicelli bowl didn't even come with the fish sauce that accompanies the dish everywhere else. Egg rolls had little filling. There's much better offerings in the area for Vietnamese food. Skip this place. read more

We ordered takeout for the first time from this restaurant and were pleased with the very good food and the friendly, courteous service. We had Seven Spice Beef, Chicken Pad Thai, and Chicken Fried Rice. All the portions were a good size and good value, and the food was at the moderate spice level we had requested. Plenty of parking. We will order from them again. read more

Food was amazing!! The spring rolls didn't have too many herbs so it was perfectly balanced with the savory-ness of the pork and the refreshing-ness of the herbs. Wasn't able to try the sauce as I was afraid to. I have food sensitivities and there was no description. The pork chop plate was LOADED. You definitely get more than what you pay for. It's extremely flavorful. I had an extra order of rice cause usually restaurants don't give enough imo, but it turns out I didn't even need to order the extra rice! However since I have food sensitivities (I can't even eat a burger from anywhere) it made my tongue itch a bit. So I have to pace myself when eating. Guarantee nobody else will have this problem though. My only issue (and reason why I didn't give 5 stars) is that on Uber eats there isn't enough detail about the food. I wanted to order some extra things but I wasn't sure what was in it. (Like idk if the smoothies have dairy) and was afraid to order the spring rolls since they don't list what's in them. Unfortunately since I ordered through Uber eats, I wasn't able to experience the atmosphere or service they provide. But given how they portion their food I'd assume they want you to eat like a mother wants her kids to eat. read more

New Leaf Pho - Grilled Pork Rice Plate , I took bites out of it so it's not as full - Vietnamese Near Me - Poulsbo, Washington

The current rating is criminally low. The portions are large for the price. Everything was fresh tasting. The grilled pork bahn mi was one of the best I've ever had. They were having a special on them, but even at full price I'd be satisfied. Definitely dip it in the broth that comes with it! The pho seems to be one size, large. The place was deserted which is a shame because the interior is nice for a smaller town place. It feels clean inside and the food was ready quickly. Definitely ignore the low rating and give it a shot! read more

I came here thinking I was going to order some pho but was pleasantly surprised by the variation of Asian foods offered. I ordered the salt and pepper tofu appetizer and the pork chop rice dish and the portions are HUGE!! Easily can feed four people. I tried the foods and they are exactly what you would expect from an Asian restaurant. The Vietnamese food tasted authentic, the Chinese food was just like my own mama makes. One thing that stands out about the place is the atmosphere. The service is friendly and the owners happened to be cooking for their employees for a sit down meal (common in the Chinese restaurants I grew up in). It was delightful to see they were making traditional Chinese dishes and the owners kindly explained what ingredients they had used to their staff. I practically wanted to join them because the owners were serving a dish my mother had made for her five children numerous times. The interior itself was a bit dark but was clean and well appointed. They had a decent lounge area and are offering dine-in service, socially distanced. If you want really good Asian food, I highly suggest you come here. Very reminiscent of the Asian food I used to eat on the daily in Seattle. read more

I would like to be able to rate the food, but 30 minutes after ordering appetizers and pho, we still hadn't received anything but tea and root beer. The restaurant had four occupied tables. Our wait person had a difficult time taking our order, after repeating it twice, they went back to get something to right with. She apologized several times, saying the kitchen was backed up with takeout orders. The bar was crowded and noisy. After 30 minutes, we left, and I said they need to take the restaurant seriously. We went to Pho Kim Chi, put in the same order, had our appetizers in 5 minutes, and our entrees in 10. read more

Our server was super nice, friendly, and witty. She really made the experience great. We got there right when it opened. I believe it shares a main entrance with a bar. Anyway the pork spring rolls were bomb! Definitely recommend those. The pho hit the spot. Probably wouldn't get milk tea here but if you're looking for pho in the area this place was a nice surprise read more

We are regulars here! The food is amazing and always so consistent! You cannot beat it! It has become our go to spot!

Ordered vegetarian Pho So delicious! The broth is excellent and service was friendly. Third time here and still loving their food. Husband got the chicken Pho and he loves it, too! read more

New Leaf Pho - Vegetarian Pho. - Vietnamese Near Me - Poulsbo, Washington

Tasty food! This is our second time ordering. Only thing I would recommend is to take a little more time to thinly slice the cucumber and trim the stems off the cilantro please. read more

Owners are super nice, they always remember me when I come in, which isn't super regularly. Portions are very generous, especially compared with other places in the area. Highly recommended!! read more

Never going here again. First off our food wasn't good at all. The salt and pepper chicken wasn't even edible because had so much salt on it. They forgot my drink and I realized when I got home so I asked if they could just refund me and they said I can come back another day and get it. So I went back the next day. When the server, Kathy, handed me my drink she was holding my straw unwrapped with soaking wet hands. So I politely asked her if they had wrapped straw. She snatched the straw from my hand stormed off and said... "She's coming in here being picky. She's a b*tch." I apologized for "ruining her day" and left. She also yelled at my mom telling her to leave and "take our drama and get out" also that "she was busy" even though there was no one in the restaurant. I'm writing this review because the manager saw everything happening and there was no resolution. read more

This review is based purely on a pickup order. I would like to say that the employee was very kind over the phone and our pick up order was prompt. Unfortunately, the food left a lot to be desired. We ordered a chicken pho, steak pho and combination pho with a side order of spring rolls. The chicken was the consistency rubber and the pho came with ZERO flavor. The rice noodles were all slimy and clumped together. We were unable to tell the difference between the steak pho and combination pho as well, which must have been a mistake on the restaurants part I'm guessing. The spring rolls were uneatable and feel apart. Sadly, most of the food we ordered was tasteless and slimy. If you're in Poulsbo you have two other delicious pho restaurants to choose from. I won't be coming back to New Leaf. read more

New owners at a previous Chinese restaurant, and maybe they are spreading themselves by trying to cover several Asian varieties. The Tao& sweet/sour chicken were chunks of real white meat, but the accompanying sauces were rather bland in flavor. Good, yes. Great,no. Pricey, a bit more than typical, for a bit of underwhelming flavor. WillWe go back, doubtful. There are better Chinese food options in town. read more

We ordered New Leaf for our New Year's Eve dinner and it was absolutely AMAZING! We've eaten in their restaurant before and loved it. So we decided to try it for delivery (through Uber Eats) and it arrived fast and PIPING hot! Incredible food. We had General Tao's Chicken, Chicken Phad Thai, the crab rangoons and a shrimp dish (can't remember the name). Everything was DELICIOUS. I'm craving my left overs as a write this. Definitely a must-visit restaurant! read more

We had similar experience as previous reviews. Eight us seated and half got their plates then four of us waited 45 mins more for ours. My chicken pho wasn't even pho. Tasted like chicken soup from a can. No flavor. Had to ask for chili oil then was given little cup of it. No basil provided. No fish sauce. Not a hint of it in the broth. They clearly cannot cook Vietnamese food. Those who had Chinese dishes liked theirs. Service seems to be consistently slow too. If I ever come back it will not be for any Vietnamese dishes. They have no idea how to cook them. read more

We have been for lunch twice since this little jewel has had new management. We consider it to be the best asian food in the area. The service is great, and our server Dusty, was kind and attentive and personable. The food was hot, complex and wonderful. It is going to be a regular stop for my husband and I. read more

This looked unassuming from the street. I mean next to a sports bar? But it was so good. I highly recommend the pho, any flavor...but the seafood pho was exceptional. I had the chicken rice plate which was more than enough but so tasty. Highly recommend this place. Come for the pho and stay for the sports next door! read more

New Leaf Pho - Shrimp spring rolls. - Vietnamese Near Me - Poulsbo, Washington

My work has ordered from here once before and everyone loved it. This time me and one other coworker got really sick eating after. We both got chicken. One was orange chicken and chicken pad Thai. The pad Thai was really greasy with huge chunks of tofu. It wasn't good at all. I wouldn't recommend it. read more

The variety on the menu is what drew me in, but not the place for Pad Thai. Way too salty and bland. The veg egg rolls were also extremely dry. I'd go back to try the Pho but my expectations are low read more

Mediocre food. If you want good tasting Vietnamese/Chinese food, stick to an authentic place.

Our order took too long and once we received it, we were missing items. Unfortunately this is not the first time this has happened. So we are done with this place. read more

New owners have added excitement and expertise to the menu. They have all sorts of Asian Fusion dishes but we focused on Chinese. The Mongolian Beef and Kung Pao Chicken were outstanding. Chef has tons of experience in the business. They are just getting started here. They previously owned restaurant in Mill Creek and have lots of experience in upscale restaurants in Bellevue area. The portions are huge, service was great and prices very reasonable. They enjoy using fresh local ingredients to make healthy tasty dishes. Give them a try! read more

The bar at the New Leaf Pho is the go-to spot for me and my wife when we want to go somewhere we feel welcomed, and that has a local community feel. The Tues, Wed, Thur bartender Dusty welcomed us to Poulsbo when we first moved here 4&1/2 years ago, and right away memorized our names and has since introduced us to several other regulars. She advised us on what have become some of out favorite foods to order (deep fried pot stickers, bahn mi, salt & pepper wings), and we enjoy ourselves every time we visit. If you haven't been, give it a try - I recommend the bar during mid-week, when Dusty can make you feel welcomed as well. read more

So this is a mixed review. The general Tsao chicken was very tasty...crispy and flavorful but the Pho was hands-down the worst I've ever had. The broth was the color of weak tea and had almost no flavor even after a mess of Hoisen and Sirracha added. Plus there was a huge slick of oil on top. I ended up throwing it out after only a few bites. Very disappointing. read more

Fresh rolls are amazing and made to order (so many places make ahead). Pho was good with HOT broth very fresh toppings as it is meant to be. Grilled pork is awesome. Their takeout is beautifully arranged. The new owner bought right before COVID hit -- check it out. read more
