Bought some sandwiches today and they were delicious! Love their food. Bought some calamari that were kinda over price for the small portion and it was kind of chewy. It should be like $7 max. It was $12 and I had like a couple of bites... the Thai tea is a hot or miss (depends who is making it. Too orange and not enough milk. Don't be discourage with the review. Still gave them 4 stars because the food was excellent. Reminds me of how my mom would make the food. Come and eat. The banh mi was perfect! *Called for the order because the restaurant was busy and the guy answering the phone need more training in customer service for sure. read more

I'm really loving the area it's open nice bright. And has establishments that is useful. The actual restaurant is very clean up kept and relax ambience the staff is also friendly and helpful. FOOD- so I would say this restaurant for food QUALITY is average at best I don't believe it's flavors are authentic but it's still good they have their own take on the dishes I had the banh coun which I felt like the rice casing was too thick and the pho broth is a little on the sour side and I really didn't like that but overall I wouldn't say this place is bad but its definitely not the best, but their take on. "Viet coffe" is great. Strong, and delicious read more

Finally stopped by for a to go order and I wish I had tried this place sooner. I placed an order for Pho Tom (shrimp) and walked over to Whole Foods for a couple things. My food was ready to go when I came back. As another reviewer mentioned, they did a fantastic job packaging everything to go - beef broth in a separate container, noodles and perfectly cooked shrimp in another, and finally a bag of the bean sprouts, basil and chili sauce. I enjoyed it at home and it was so good, I finished it all. Broth was flavorful, and shrimp was plentiful. The only suggestion I have is for them to add alcohol, as they do not currently serve any. Great spot in the neighborhood! read more

No 1 Pho - Bahn mi Tofu Sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Went here to celebrate a birthday. We all like ethnic food and it was time for some Pho. We had our choice of seats as it was rather early evening. Menu has a large variety of pork/beef/seafood options, if looking for vegetarian as for the "special" menu. I got the Hu Trieu Mi Mu Tho (#16) which is basically the kitchen sink soup with qual eggs. I'll just say, I'm getting it the next time I go... I really enjoyed it!! Broth was flavorful but I needed to add jalapeños and some chili paste to kick it up a notch. The appetizers were a variety of spring rolls and potstickers. Pretty good. I'll have to return and venture to other items on the menu. I'm told the chicken curry dishes are excellent but you must be careful as the chicken is jacked with a meat cleaver so you can get sharp piece of bone (not clean cuts). read more

Delicious!!!!! Omg I was so sick and my husband went and picked up some pho for me and it made me feel so much better. So good. The service is excellent. Very polite and helpful. I will definitely be back to try everything. The beef pho- I think number 5- brought me back to life! Yum yum yum! read more

At least update the prices on your online menu so there aren't any surprises. What kinda of business has websites with inaccurate prices when you take online orders. Canceled read more

Today was my first time going to this place. Food: I got the pho dac biet. The noodles tasted delicious, but broth wise it is kind of bland. We also got egg rolls and papaya. The papaya is kind of sweet but not too bad, forgot to ask for spicy, which I'm not really sure if it does come spicy since they never asked either. Service: When we first got there, no one greeted us even though 99% of the seats were empty and there were no other customer then us. When seated, they did do a good job with service. Bug Problem: If you hates gnats, especially letting gnats get into your food, THIS RESTAURANT HAVE PLENTY OF GNATS. We killed 2 gnats, 1 got into the sauce, and 1 was still flying around us while we were eating. Otherwise, the food was ok, service was ok, but definitely have lots of gnats problem. read more

I'm a sucker for pho so when I saw this restaurant I knew I wanted to try. It's just the perfect meal when you're looking to have a cozy night in. I thought the portions were reasonable but had a few concerns. First, the herbs weren't cut up properly to be actually edible in the broth. Second, the packaged the raw meat with cooked meat which is a huge no for delivery for me. Overall the broth flavor was good but it did seem overly sweet to me. read more

This delicious meal was delivered by Uber eats so I can only discuss the food. It was so good, well packaged with everything needed. This was so good. The banh xeo is very hard to find in this area, and they did it to perfection. Will definitely eat here again. My only small issue is the amount of pho broth, I wish there were more. Absolutely delicious. read more

Im from the West Coast and its so hard to find a place in North Carolina that is AMAZING! I'm so happy I found this place, finally I can have some Pho that actually taste like there's a grandma back there cooking( and there actually is ) So satisfying read more

Very small portions. I went there on a Friday afternoon with my husband and daughter. There were only two other tables that were occupied so it was not busy at all. After we ordered, it took them over 30 minutes to bring us the food. All 3 of our dishes were TINY. I am 5ft tall and weight 102lbs and I never finish my entrees, but at No1, my dish was so small that I left the restaurant still hungry!! Definitely not worth the $$. read more

I've eaten Vietnamese from San Francisco to Atlanta. While the name (No 1 Pho) and the location maybe suspicious, the experience is outstanding. Don't be fooled, this is authentic Vietnamese, including a strong French flare. Try it and I assure you that you will return. My new favorite restaurant in the triangle area and that is saying something. read more

I'm very satisfied with Cha Gio ( Spring Rolls ) try one it never make you disappointed!!!!! . I love pho beef grill and pho pork grill sooooooooooOo Good. The Customer services is the best. I will definitely be back again and again!!!!!! read more

The food is so delicious! My favs are Cha Gio crispy spring rolls and the Bahn Mi sandwiches (I've had Pork and Beef and both are so fresh and tasty). I order from here all the time and will continue to do so. The prices are very reasonable too! 10/21 Just tried Bahn Xeo for the first time here and it was so good. We will order it again read more

I only ordered the boba drinks (via Uber Eats) and was thoroughly impressed. I recommend. I got the strawberry milk tea for my little guy and I got the milk tea for myself. The milk tea fell a little flat on flavor BUT I loved the strawberry tea....wanted to take it from my kiddo and keep for myself. I hope to order again soon, but likely will not get the milk tea. Good to order from Uber Eats they are on time and drinks arrived just right (no spills or leaks) read more

Sat there like fools for 30 minutes after our order was taken. Plenty of take out packages going out. Told waiter and next thing the order for a table of people that arrived 15 minutes after us came out. We left! read more

Tried this place tonight for carry out for the first time. I ordered the spring rolls, which were amazing, and the Pho Tom which was also really good. The food was fresh and flavorful and the portion on the Pho Tom was more than enough to be filling. I did take one star off because I was annoyed that the lid on my broth was not closed properly so the broth spilled on my front seat during my drive home. Additionally, I waited at least 10 minutes standing at the front counter before someone even acknowledged that we were standing there to place a take-out order. I understand restaurants being busy however if you see someone waiting at your front counter at least say "we'll be right with you", "just one moment" or even just a head nod to let the customer know that you see them standing there and that you will be right with them. Once we were greeted by the staff, all of them seemed very friendly and the rest of the visit went smoothly. I will chalk it up to being new and will be sure to give them another try as the taste and quality of the food is there. read more

I'm from OC, California where we have 4 pho restaurants in every block. This pho is not authentic and the broth was less than average. The noodles were too chewy and rubbery. The texture of the banh beo was hard and rubbery, as well. 5 stars for the friendly service. read more

My wife and I went out on date night This place is clean and great decor And awesome food Thank you For your friendly staff and great service read more

Very good fresh and I liked the sandwich and the pho. This granny works the back kitchen and is churning out some good meals. Definitely will be back!! read more

The Bottom Line: A very clean, friendly place to get an authentic bowl of pho. Definitely one of the better options in the area The Good: The restaurant is spotless clean, the broth has a great depth of flavor, and the service is above average. It's great to see a family running the kitchen and you know it's legit when the pho comes out a few minutes after ordering it. They aren't stingy with the basil, bean sprouts, or jalepeno's (had some real heat to them!) and there was plenty of meat as well. The Bad: My only knock is that the noodles were a large ball in the soup and had to be separated a good amount. This created a mismatch of temperatures and textures but was remedied for the most part after some good mixing read more

No 1 Pho - Not the prettiest presentation, but they weren't stingy with the basil/bean sprouts and the broth had a great depth of flavor - Vietnamese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

If you want overpriced pho (or anything else on their menu), this is the place to come. My boyfriend always orders chicken vermicelli, and he thoroughly enjoyed it. However, I wasn't a fan of the pho broth, and neither was my friend. I didn't taste that broth flavor I typically crave when I think of "pho". My cravings weren't 100% satisfied, and the price obviously wasn't worth it for me. The three of us were also the only customers eating there on a random Thursday night around 6PM. I'll personally be sticking to my usual go-to Vietnamese restaurant just a few miles away from this place. read more

No 1 Pho - Beef pho and chicken vermicelli - Vietnamese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Decent place if you're looking for a quick meal. Wouldn't say it's phenomenal pho but it is quite tasty with other Vietnamese delicacies.

This is good pho! Not my favorite egg rolls around. Would prefer they update the hours on Yelp because I've arrived to find them closed. The other dishes are good as well. read more

Overall decent quality for Vietnamese food in the Cary/Morrisville area. However, prices were a bit higher than average and flavors didn't quite hit the mark. I was feeling like hu tieu (clear rice noodles/pork stock) instead of a traditional beef broth pho. Noodles were slightly over cooked. The veggies included were not the most authentic but they tasted good. Broth flavor, again, was not 100% authentic but was still enjoyable. We also tried the combination vermicelli. Oddly it was served on a plate instead of in a bowl. this made mixing the protein, noodles, and veg with the fish sauce quite difficult. However, flavors were good (the pork in particularly had a good amount flavor and aroma). Vietnamese iced coffee (ca phe sua da) was nice and strong--and yummy! read more

Pho is super good. Best in the triangle area! Noodles are at good portion, not too much.

One of my top two favorite Pho restaurants in the Triangle. They make excellent Pho and egg rolls. I haven't ventured to try some of the other menu items because I'm just obsessed with their Pho. While I know chicken wings may not be a traditional Vietnamese dish, the restaurant does have them on the menu as an appetizer. The chicken wings are not only piping hot when they are served but they are absolutely excellent. They are accompanied with a sweet and spicy sauce. I love that the food is consistently delicious. The restaurant is always clean and tidy. The weight staff is always kind, friendly and helpful. Most recently, I've been dining here two nights a week. I love that they're open on Sundays. A lot of Vietnamese restaurants are not. The only one thing I'm bummed about is that they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. However, I completely understand that restaurant owners have to take a rest. read more

After the worst experience at pho 919 (terrible service and scorched meat), I went back to my favorite place. This is what grilled pork vermicelli should look like! I'm at king to No. 1 Pho. Price is slightly highly here but the thick broth (pho) and unparallel food quality justifies the $$. Decor is calming and always clean. Waiters/waitresses are younger and very attentive and kind. read more

No 1 Pho - Grilled pork vermicelli noodle. - Vietnamese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Only thing you should do at No. 1 Pho is take a no. 2 in their bathroom. Service: I've never been to a place where pho, vermicelli noodles, and its dish ingredients took more than 15 minutes, even at an authentic place. It took two (same) dishes and a summer roll 32 minutes. I ate here in person about a year ago and the service was terrible, but out of good faith I came back here. All I got was "sorrys" and other excuses than the paid product itself. News for the staff - apologies don't feed your customers. Food: It was mediocre at best. It's better than the pho place off of exit 101, but that's not saying much at all. The taste is extremely bland and doesn't bring out the fish sauce / marinaded meat taste, and the summer roll is all presentation and no taste. Price: They're all $2-3 overpriced than what the dishes are, even for a 2020-21 inflation standards. Overall, this place cares about the presentation more than literally two key points to a paid-service / restaurant: - food - service. I will not be returning to pay for crap food such as falsely-advertised and self-proclaimed "no. 1" pho. You want real, authentic, serviced-Vietnamese food? Saigon Bistro in Fayetteville. Twice the drive for 10x the service and flavor is worth every mile than this 4th place environment. read more

There's nothing #1 or authentic about this place. The worst pho I've ever had, that's saying a lot being raised in California and have had pho my entire life. The pho was not made with authentic star anis base and it had a sweet base. I ordered spring rolls and the "peanut sauce" smelled like dog food and tasted like beef bouillon and no peanut taste or flavor at alll ! The service is horrible and very slow, from sitting down to still currently waiting, we've been here for an hour and 15 minutes... this is all so disappointing. Safe to say Will never come here again..... read more

No 1 Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Cary, North Carolina

Best banh cuon around here you can get!!! That's legit from someone coming from Westminster, CA! Please don't ever close down!

It hard for me to judge these different Vietnamese places only having tried the Pho, but for what it is worth, I had the Pho at No. 1 Pho in Cary and thought it was pretty good/average compared to other Pho places I have been to. They only offer one size and it is a large size for $12. I really wanted to get something else like Spring/Summer roles or the banh mi sandwich but since it was lunchtime I figured the Pho would be enough to fill me up which was accurate on my part. Everything was fine at No. 1 Pho including the service. Along with the traditional sprouts, basil and jalapeno peppers I did notice they served lemon instead of the traditional lime which was different. I also ordered green tea, but it was the Americanized version and a tea bag. Nothing special. If I make it back to No.1 and try more items I will be certain to update this review. read more

Their pho, spring rolls and bahn mi are amazing. We always make a trip here when we're in the area! Highly recommend!

This place so clean, friendly staff and good service. I love no25 it's taste so good. Pho in here good too, the noodle very different in other place. Come and try it. I hope them do some dessert read more
