    Iced coffee
    Ron V.

    Been in here many, many times and have always left satisfied. The dining area is quaint and there are about 10 tables. It does get a little cold in the winter if people come and go a lot while you are there. The owners are super friendly and will quickly remember you if you become a regular. The service has always been good everytime we have been there. We almost always order the spring rolls with shrimp as an appetizer. It comes with peanut sauce which is one of the best we've ever had. I've had the pho before and it is amazing. I usually take about half of it home because it is a huge bowl. This time however, I went with the grilled beef bánh mi sandwich. Theirs is my favorite sandwich of all time. We also got the crab rangoon this time and it also did not disappoint. It, of course, comes with a (I think) sweet and sour sauce. We will be returning many times and look forward to it.

    This restaurant consistently delivers exceptional service, with friendly staff whose humor brightens our visits. The interior is clean, and the pho is always served hot and fresh. The boba is a perfect complement to our meals. My partner loved the spring rolls so much that we ordered four servings to enjoy throughout the week. The loyalty card and our appreciation for the cuisine keeps us coming back for more!

    74. Beef Yakisoba Plate
    Gabrielle T.

    I looked through all of the reviews I've ever left and this is going to be the first time I give a business below a 3. This was TOUGHHHH. This place has about 9 tables inside, pretty small. Totally fine! The problem was the service. I had to ask for my drink 4 times. Even had to ask after my friends got theirs. Then we finally get our food and finally got our drinks...we didn't have silverware. We politely ask for that and they say they will go get it ASAP. We were sitting for a good 5 minutes before they came back out to the front and realized that once again they forgot our silverware again. I'm totally understanding of small businesses and if waiters are busy, they are busy, no problem. but we would watch our server leave our table, go to the kitchen two steps away (to presumably get our drinks), come back out 5 minutes later, walk right by us and go help other tables. Forgetting once or twice is fine but 4 times is crazy. Food was alright, not bad, but nothing amazing. The two pluses? 1) the portions were huge! Definitely bang for your buck 2) An older lady came in and started working right as we were about to leave (I think she might have been the owner) and she runs a tight ship. Very friendly and was very in charge of telling the staff who should do what to make the flow better. This place might be better on another day where she is working, just was a miss for me.

    29. Noodle Soup with Rare Beef and Fat Brisket
    Wanga K.

    I had the rare beef and fat brisket pho and it was . The brisket was the best. We both got the large and it was SO filling. For only $2 more than the small, it was worth it. I shared a grilled pork banh mi with my friend and it was okay. I wish the bread was crispier and there was more filling like jalapeños and pickled veggies. The mango green tea boba was sweet and good but the boba wasn't as springy as I like usually. The service was great. The woman there was warm and welcoming. We went around lunch and it wasn't packed but almost every table was filled. Seems to be an Avon favorite! The ambiance is cool. Very much a hidden gem whole in the wall kind of vibe.

    Matcha

    Bought a matcha tea with no sweetener and it was a perfect flavor. I didn't get Boba pearls because they were the flavors and I only like the plain. Will be back!

    I ordered a pork chop and rice and it was scrumptious! I ate the pork chop to the bone. The flavor profile was so yummy. The texture was soft but a a crisp on the edges. The menu had great options it was hard to choose something! Service was so courteous! He was patient and understanding. My friend had questions about gluten and they were happy to assist her with her request. Parking upfront and there was seating for dining in! I would certainly return!

    I stopped back in to Pho 36 for lunch as my dad was visiting and he had never had Vietnamese food. First I had to try the peach Boba Tea for my drink. It was a perfect balance of sweetness without being too sweet. Great bobas were in there. They have the option to get liquid filled ones too. Next I ordered the Vietnamese Shaking Beef. This dish is not spicy but you can order it with extra spice if you wish. The plate included some very good white rice and vegetables as side items. It was a very tasty dish and wasn't hot as they described. The beef was very tender and the rice tasted good with the dish. Service was friendly quick and great during our lunch visit.

    Pho thai  24. Noodle Soup with Rare Beef

    First of all, LESS THAN $10 a bowl?!?! Just get out!!!!!!! I wish I lived locally. Second, the broth is LEGIT. So delicious, the noodles had the right bite, the meat was soft and tearable with the teeth. I'm salivating thinking about my experience here. Service is pretty fast.

    Bun bo hue is made with pho noodle here
    Karen T.

    This place is probably great for people that are less familiar with Vietnamese food. There is full translation and explanations of each item on the menu and they've modified things to accommodate an American pallet. We got a large pho tai chin, large pho tai Nam, and a bun bo hue. The large is not very large. The pho broth is not good. The bun bo hue only comes with 3 slices of well done flank and 3 slices of cha. You are supposed to make bun bo hue with a thick round rice noodle but they just used pho noodle here. It is fine but not at all authentic. It was very busy when we went. It is located in a plaza with a parking lot. Overall, the food is not great and I would not recommend it.

    Egg Rolls
    Michael W.

    Pho 36 is a decent restaurant for pho just outside of Indy, on the west side. The Pho broth was different, more on the lighter side, but still decent flavors. They did hook me up with hanh dam (pickled onions), which I like to add sriracha and a dash of hoisin. Pairs well with your meats. Egg rolls were good, but I wish it also came with lettuce leaves to make a wrap. And I normally don't get seafood pho, but I do for my kids. They said they loved it. Overall decent place for some pho!

The Szechuan Shrimp was packed with large shrimp and lots of fresh broccoli and other vegetables. The portion was generous and deliciously filling. My husband had the Hunan with chicken. The generous portion of chicken was tender and the veggies fresh. During the week they offer a handful of lunch option specials at a great price. There is plenty of parking in the strip mall lot. I'll be coming back.

Finally a person came up to the cash register and allowed us to order with her as opposed to the kiosk. It also took a bit of time for the food to come out. When it did come out it wasn't our order, so we had to wait additional time. When it finally did come, it was really good. Very fresh ingredients, bread was homemade, it just really a good tasting meal. I do very much like the decor in the place, doesn't feel like you are in Castleton, feels very west cost. They also have donuts and coffee but I didn't have any of that.

We stopped in the day before New Year's Eve and the place was a full house with no tables available, which tells you everything you need to know. This spot is clearly loved by the locals and for good reason. Once seated, the mission was straightforward. My partner ordered the Pho Ga, my son went with the house special pho and wisely added extra noodles, and I had the pho tai with extra noodles as well. For an appetizer, we shared the goi roll, a classic Vietnamese spring roll that was fresh and perfectly done. Every bowl came out steaming hot and packed with flavor. Comfort food strong enough to restore balance to the Force. Drinks wise, they offer fountain drinks and bubble tea, both solid options, but we stuck with water. Not because we didn't want them, but because the current regime has the economy in a chokehold and even Jedi have to make budget conscious choices sometimes.

Pho Tasty has earned its reputation as a busy, reliable, and well loved restaurant. We'll absolutely be back, preferably when the galaxy is a little less crowded. The Force is strong here.
