So far its been my one spot in china town for best take out packaging pho place! Of course their food taste good too! Love their Food Packing and their broth read more

Having Pho 20 in chinatown is a nice addition. It beats out many of the other Pho places in the area. However, we've been utterly spoiled by Pho 75 with the Pho and Nam Phoung with the appetizers. BBQ Pork Roll - the pork was a little on the sweeter side. It wasn't wrapped as nicely as some other vietnamese places. Pho - could've used some--no no.. ALOT more scallion (told you we were spoiled by Pho 75). The broth was good in general. The bowl is pretty large and deep. So there's plenty to eat. My rare beef was not rare. It came out pretty well done. Spring roll - oily. there was also a very strong sesame oil flavor in the dipping sauce which i never came across in the many times i've had vietnamese food. This place is still brand new, close to home. Prices are fairly decent. It wouldn't hurt to come back again in the near future. read more

I ordered for a take out. The pork was so hard to chew. It's like they have the pork for so long that they just want to get rid of it to their customers. The cashier also charged me for a side soup that was supposed to be free. read more

Pho 20 - I tried to use the chopstick to bend the meat to show how hard the meat was. Imagine by eating it. Can barely chew it!! - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Love this place! I haven't been disappointed yet, and it's the first place I go to when I want to order some good Pho Soup and rolls. I highly recommend any of their soups especially Pho and their rolls are great too! They really know how to package every thing up really nice to prevent any spills too unlike a lot of takeout spots. They send you all the utensils you need and the containers are very useful. read more

Pho 20 - Pho soup - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Pho is honestly best when served hot fresh letting the raw meat cook in the hot broth. COVID makes that a tad harder. Ordered take out multiple times from here and would say they supply all the condiments and food very fresh. The broth is just as good, would recommend reheating prior to adding the noodles (prevent it from getting soggy). The prices are reasonable and the broth is delicious and hearty. I will definitely continue ordering from here! read more

This restaurant is a nice place to eat Vietnamese pho and sub. The pho soup tastes good, and looks like bigger size than other Vietnamese restaurants I've dined in.The noodles in the soup is a large portion too. That's quite generous. One other specialty I like at this place is the radish/ carrots side. It's a little sour and salty and sweet and tasted amazing. I ordered an extra bowl of the radish side to go because I liked it so much. read more

I came here on a Saturday night with a friend. This place had no wait whatsoever and infact, we were the only ones in the restaurant! The place was clean and had good service. I got a Thai Tea which was not the best I've had but it was good. I got a vegetable pho which had huge pieces of vegetables in it which was great and it was big portion. I don't have much to compare this to since I never had pho before but was very good and the prices were great. For the Thai tea and 2 Phos - it came to $22.68. read more

I always get the summer rolls here but i enjoy their banh mi's also! Friendly staff and they're open late on weekends ! read more

Decided to try this place out. We went on a Wednesday night at 815ish and it was pretty empty. I decided to order what I always get at other places so I can compare. I got the pho tai Bo vien (beef PCI with meatballs), and a shrimp summer roll. The summer roll was okay.. I had better. Same with the pho.. The broth was pretty good, but there wasn't much beef slices as some other places I went to, and the meatballs were kind of harder/chewy than I like. Service was really good, but it was a little awkward because the family who owns the place were eating at a few tables away from us and they would stare at us lol... Also a gory Asian movie was playing on the tv (not really the best place to show a movie with blood spurting everywhere...Ew lol) All in all, the place was pretty good, and I'll probably be back to give it another shot. Plus side: they take credit card! read more

Pho 20 - Pho tai Bo vien - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Pho 20 is one of the few Vietnamese restaurants opened after 11pm, and we came late one night to pick up a to go order. Since their bun bo hue wasn't particularly memorable, we decided to go with the pho dac biet and pho bo ko this time around. The pho bo ko that I had was still piping hot as I ate it, sitting in the comfort of my own couch. The flavors were all there. The portions - meat, noodles and condiments were very generous too. While I said the noodle portions were small the last time I came here, they definitely improved on that. My husband who had the pho dac biet said he enjoyed it as well. Maybe it wasn't the best pho he had, but it's a pretty average pho. Price wise, food is fairly priced, both of our pho and an order of summer rolls only set us back ~$20. read more

This little gem is centered in the outskirts of Little Asia in the heart of Philadelphia. By the looks of it from the outside, it looks to be just another vietnamese hot-soup shop, and at heart it is exactly that; but this restaurant accomplishes it very well. 2 people greeted me with a warm smile as soon as I arrived, the restaurant and I were off to a great start. I was seated prompty (this was 9:45 PM on a Monday night). Expect decent service, low prices, and VERY good vietnamese food. Bahn Mí roll was hot and toasty, pork and veggies were fresh and mixed well. Phó was extraordinary. BOH took their time with this broth because, golly, it was damn good. You can always taste and see the quality of slow simmered Phó broth. Spare ribs were firm, and had great flavor, a sweet yet savory mix. Awesome presentation of the veggies! Rice was stale, though. Had a very nice experience at Phó 20. Will be back! read more

A few months ago we stopped in for take-out bubble tea, and it was so good that we instantly planned to come back for a meal. Well, we finally made it back and it was pretty disappointing. The bubble tea tasted good but they had really small cups and there were hardly any bubbles in it. The pho was too rich (greasy) but the meat was tough and bland, and both of us left with stomach aches. read more

I accidently discovered this place when I was on my way to Love City Brewing. Last Friday I had an urge for a Pho and decided to try it. I was surprised how good it actually was. Bowl was big and soup had a lot of meat and fat which I like. I have a feeling this place will become my go to spot for Pho. PS Minimum cc charge is $10 read more

Came in after a night out in China town. Ordered P3, which is their "combo bowl" with the beef, fish balls, tripe, etc. I don't usually have high expectations for pho, but the broth didn't have much flavor to it at all. Which shocked me considering the previous reviews about how great the broth is. It was basically just noodles and meat in hot water. I added all the mix ins and tried to get every last drop of lime juice in. Overall, it was good and I'd probably give them another shot. read more

This is a great Vietnamese spot located in Philadelphia's Chinatown. We ordered pho late night to our hotel after an evening out at a concert. Major kudos to Pho 20 for delivering late amongst a sea of pizza places. It was nice to have a secondary option! I had the pork vermicelli. It was exactly what I hoped - a fresh bowl of rice noodles and vegetables that I didn't feel horribly guilty after eating. The portion of veggies was super generous and the pork had a great seasoning and wasn't greasy. Pho 20 was beyond reasonably priced and was very satisfying. Great spot! read more

I had to update my review to 3 stars after trying their pho. I had previously been disappointed with their Rice Vermicelli, but since my boyfriend said he had liked their pho, I decided it was only fair that I give it a shot. I got the P2 Pho with White Meat Chicken and although I wasn't a fan of the meat, the broth was decent. The vegetables were fresh and the broth was piping hot which I appreciate. Prices are reasonable and their $1.50 delivery charge via GrubHub is less than most restaurants so I can see myself ordering from here again. read more

Came here on a whim because it was open late and I'm so glad we did! Ordered a feast of summer roll, spring roll, banh xeo, pho, bun with pork, spring rolls and shrimp, and broken rice with pork. I've never had banh xeo and this place has set the standard of what it's supposed to taste like, crispy crust, fluffy insides, filled with shrimp and pork then you wrap it with lettuce, pickled carrots and radish. Everything was all so delicious and fresh, we were stuffed and didn't even finish all the food. The service was great, pricing was affordable and I would love to come back here again! read more

I honestly wasn't expecting much from this place at first.. but it took me by surprise! The pho broth was bomb and we loved the cuts of meat they put in it, it was all so tender. Not only that but for $8.25 a bowl it comes with a lot! We also got a banh mi to share that was also yummy and fresh! So all together we spent $23! So not only was the food good, the service was great and it was a very clean restaurant. I'm deff recommending! read more

Pho 20 is nicely located in Chinatown and has always been on point whether I am dining in or picking up food to go. One major advantage of Pho 20 is they are open late which is great when you're in the mood for pho after a night out in Chinatown. The interior is great and spacious and you'll never feel ontop of other customers. Pho is easily in my Top 3 favorite foods so lm pretty particular with pho in general and the pho here is great. read more

Awsome Pho, Tried all over town and this is one of my favorites. Me and my wife both agree on this read more

We like to order Pho delivery on Friday where I work, and we've had two orders from Pho 20 so far. I've never actually been inside their restaurant. For starters, their portions are huge. I ordered the Bun Dac Biet, house special rice vermicelli combination with a variety of meats. Compared to our usual pho spot, the prices are much higher, but the meat is 100 times more flavorful and the fish sauce is tastier. I asked for whatever manner of chili sauce they had on hand, which they kindly provided. I haven't tried their pho yet, but I did notice they send disposable bowls with it so you don't have to eat it out of the tall plastic container it comes in. If you read their reviews on GrubHub, people complain of long delivery times. It's true our food did take longer than usual to arrive but if I wanted to get it faster I would have just gone and gotten it myself - delivery drivers in the city work hard. read more

Seamless review: I ordered standard beef pho with rare steak. I couldn't have been happier with my decision. The pho came in it's own container with noodles and onions (and beef separate) paired with stock on the side and toppings. Super yummy and perfect! Would order again. read more

I took the bus from CT to Philly to visit my friend and didn't get to Philly until super late like 1-2am. I was starving and looked on yelp to see what was open that late. I came across Pho 20 since they are open til like 3am I believe, had my friend pick me up from the bus station and head on over there. Since it was so late, we decided to order to go. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue. I was a bit skeptical of ordering it because anywhere I eat bun bo hue that's not in Houston, TX is not as good or authentic tasting as the one I've tried down there. But I was wrong, the Bun bo hue here is BOMB, it has that authentic taste to it and yes it damn near tastes like the bowls I've had in Houston. I was very impressed. Broth was full of flavor and meat. I was very satisfied. Next time when I'm in Philly, I will def return. read more

I had the house special rice vermicelli combination and it was sooooo good. I was craving something light, yet savory and this dish definitely hit the spot. I have never dined in here before but I'm looking forward to dining in and trying their pho sometime! read more

Pho 20 - Bánh xèo to die for... - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Let's see... Charging someone more than what is stated on the menu gives you an automatic 1 star.... Especially if you also have one of the blandest pho I have ever had. When I called them out in it, the waiter's response was, "Oh... We are in the process of changing the menu... Sorry about that." LOL! Then charge your patron the updated price once the menu has been updated!!! Doi!! This place should also indicate in the good description that the beef carpaccio is topped with peanuts too... Not just basil and lime juice. read more

Pho 20 is phenomenal. I always get the broken rice platter with braised short beef ribs and it's very good and tender ! Pho 20 provides great customer service along with their fresh & tasty entrees. read more

I absolutely love pho and have pretty much tried pho all over the country, and safe to say I wasn't disappointed when I ordered the pho tai. The soup base is delicious, and the meat is cut thinly perfectly. I highly recommend reheating on the stove again after you get it (take out)- it just makes the broth sooooo much better. I also ordered the summer roll (shrimp and pork) which was alright, nothing too special read more

One of our Go-To spots for Banh Mi sandwiches in Chinatown. Everything great and authentic!

rainy days always call for pho. stopped by with my friend and was pleasantly surprised! the inside isn't the flashiest but it was quick, delicious and moderately priced! $12 lunch i'll take it BBQ pork summer rolls: really good! the rice paper was getting a bit hard but the pork was delicious pork and shrimp spring roll: the filling wasn't as fresh as i'd like it but they came out pretty quick pho: the broth was actually really good! try to stay away from the fatty brisket though, the fat pieces are really huge; good for flavoring the broth but terrible for you! i really liked my eye round pieces and some of the well done brisket pieces though, they do not skimp out on the beef which is great! all in all, this place is a great stop if you're craving pho! read more

I can't complain about it. Everything we ordered was so good. They stuffed Shrimp rolls with pork and some herbs it's really refreshing and the peanut sauce was so good. The bread is another kind crunch and sweetness, even though we had cheesesteak before this meal the bread still brought us surprise. I ordered a combo pho so all kinds of parts of beef came in one bowl. Needless to say it was so rich in soup but not salty. Take a sip of the soup with cilantro and scallion made me alive. Also it can be served with sprouts and lime. The hot sauce could take evening to another level. At the end, the price was so affordable and even cheap regarding to all the variety of food we had. read more

Absolutely loved Pho 20 especially their late night hours on Friday and Saturday(open till 3am). Got P3 for take out a few days ago and it taste delicious. Received a coupon to order on Grubhub, so I order for delivery. Order another pho today and it was SO good. I order at 3:30 and I got my food at 4, AMAZING!! Delivery is super duper fast and friendly and since I live in Fishtown, I decided to give the driver additional tip on great service. Will definitely order again, maybe try some of their broken rice dishes next time. read more

3.5--Is what I really want to give this new place, but I'm rounding up because the food is delicious and the cost is amazingly affordable! I went on opening day and have gotten take-out a couple times since they opened. The food is delicious and VERY reasonably priced. There are a handful of Vietnamese places around Chinatown and I was very ecstatic when I looked at their menu and saw the prices (the first time we ate there, my boyfriend was in shock to see how low our bill was!). I was even more excited when I tasted the food and found it very enjoyable. So far, I've tried their broken rice with charbroiled pork, salt baked squid, and their seafood pho. I really enjoyed the presentation of their food too--it definitely made me enjoy the food even more. The reason I was hesitant to give this place a higher rating is because it took them weeks to fill everything in their menu. My boyfriend and I really enjoy fish dishes and were excited to try them on the menu. However, the past 3 times we've tried to order their Fish Cooked with Sauce in the Hot Pot dish (S3), they didn't have the ingredients. After we kept returning, we were hoping that they would have been able to fulfill their full menu. Finally, yesterday, they had the dish ready. The sauce was very savory, a bit on the oily side, but it was delicious. My boyfriend was a little frustrated with how many bones he had to take out, but overall we were happy with the dish. I'm definitely looking forward to trying more things on the menu! The service is good. I really enjoy their jasmine tea that they serve even when you're just waiting for take-out! read more

Ok, so I'm huge on a place being consistent and this place is not at all. :-( So sad bc I did let others know that it was really good. Came here again with my husband and ordered Bun bo hue (spicy beef noodle soup) and my husband ordered Bo Luc Lac (shaken beef). We also ordered Goi Cuon (summer rolls with pork and shrimp). Summer roll - Whomever rolled it had no skills. it was very sloppy looking. And the peanut sauce they served was too peanuty. Plus, there was barely any pork or shrimp. I tasted all noodles and veggies. Bun bo hue - i ordered extra satay sauce on the side cause I like my noodles to be extra spicy. I practically put the entire extra sauce in my soup and did not change the spicyness at all. Boo!!! Bo Luc Lac - wth...was this even beef? It was very soft and did not have any beef taste to it. Plus, this is normally served with a lemon pepper sauce. This dish did not come out with any. Shape up guys! You are new. You should be consistent! read more

20 PHO 7 Well not really, but close enough. Pho 20 is one of the rare Chinatown establishments that are open past 10pm on the weekends although more places are moving towards it. It's located on the very edge of Chinatown where many locations around it aren't open, but this place is open until 3AM, just look for the big blue sign. Anyone that checks my reviews knows that I love the pho scene Philly has to offer. What you have to know is that the pho at Pho 20 is the best in Chinatown, hands down. This is the newest pho joint in the city (no pun intended) and with it comes a very comfortable and modern dining setting, along with the food to match. The pho here is tremendous, the broth flavorful, the noodles are cooked just right, they give a hearty portion of meats with the pho special and the basil is very fresh. In addition, the appetizers and other meals they serve here are unique to the other ones you may find at other Vietnamese restaurants. My favorites are the Vietnamese crepe (Bahn Xeo) and the Honey glazed chicken wings. Everything tastes fresh. The waitstaff is very attentive and kind. The food comes out in an instant and it's a perfect way to end the night, no matter how late you end up staying out. read more

We try this place couple times the food always bring it too slow or lacking of servers The food not bad but it not like south philly Pho or Banh mi. Worst to try it read more

Meh. Debated for a while between 2 stars and three, 1/2 stars would have been helpful in this case. Went with 2 after some internal debate because of several issues and out of respect for my neighborhood Pho place, which is between a 4-5. I got the rare meat, well-done flank, summer rolls, and bubble tea. Pros: - Nice staff - the ladies up front were nice - Open late - for carry-out and delivery - Broth - Good flavor profile (be sure to shake/stir) - To go Packaging - which includes paper bowl and mini Pho spoon. Cons: - Meat quality - Like others have mentioned, poor cuts, super chewy, very fatty, not very flavorful meat. The meat definitely contained too many un-chewable pieces and bits that required pulling out. - veggies - small amount of basil, and cilantro though I asked for extra - summer rolls - very, very chewy wrapper. I ended up just eating the inside. Peanut sauce was decent. - bubble tea - didn't really have flavor, didn't have an option of Black tea with no milk and the Boba's were soggy. They didn't taste fresh. Two other items to note: - They cut-off inside dining 30 minutes before closing. Be aware of this if you want to eat in. If someone knows what they want this should be plenty of time to order and eat before closing. Kitchen is still open, but only for deliveries. Seems like an odd rule. - Payments - Credit card requires a $10 minimum and no AMEX. Another rule to be aware of. Not a show stopper, but when it catches you off guard it is another rule that you have to keep in mind if you plan to go here and just detracts from the overall experience. read more
