    P16. Pho Ga
    Meghan W.

    I was very pleasantly surprised by Pho 52 in Frederick, MD. I'd heard great things about it, so I tried it out on a cold, cloudy day. Tucked in the corner of a tiny shopping center, you probably wouldn't give the restaurant a second thought, but you're missing out! There is very little parking, approximately six spaces that all businesses share, so be aware. The restaurant's interior is very simple, but I was immediately greeted by a gentleman behind the register who welcomed me and pointed me to the only empty table available (a packed house). This gentleman also took our orders. He was friendly, pleasant and helpful. I ordered pho ga and from the first bite, I was hooked. The broth was so flavorful! I also loved that Pho 52 offered dark meat chicken. I've never seen that at the other pho restaurants I've visited and I was quite happy with it. The portions are generous but not so big that you feel uncomfortably full. I highly recommend Pho 52. It's a great place for delicious Vietnamese food!

    Large veggie pho with extra tofu
    Lexi R.

    I'm a sucker for a large veggie pho with extra tofu. They always make the tofu perfectly and the broth is the best. They have a lot of options and all of their food is great. I've never heard of anyone disliking a meal from here. I also enjoy this soup as leftovers and love to eat it cold too. This place is my favorite spot in Frederick and they are always so kind here. I probably eat here once or twice a week. Always hits the spot!

    Pho 52 is my favorite pho spot in the Frederick and surrounding areas. Their pho broth is clean and the bun bo hue (spicy noodle soup) has amazing and authentic flavor. The veggies and tofu they use in their veggie pho are top tier and we prefer it over other pho restaurants. My kids are a fan of the lemongrass beef with vermicelli noodles. I order take out often from here and the one time I dined in the customer service was good and food came out in a timely manner.

    Beef pho

    I ordered from this relatively new restaurant at the recommendation of my friend who is Vietnamese and thinks this is the best in Frederick. I ordered the soup on Friday evening and the vermicelli noodles today. The broth was outstanding and both dishes were executed and packaged for takeout very nicely. My husband is on a low sodium diet and the owners husband who works front of house recommended the chicken pho. Both orders were takeout but noted that the inside dining area looked very clean so I would consider dining in next time.

    Small Brisket Pho

    This is my first time trying Pho in the Frederick area and I absolutely loved it! Service was amazing, the nice man at the front was very sweet and made sure my pho was good! It is a very small area but it felt very cozy. I was feeling very sick that day and this place made my day 100x better!! Will definitely be coming more often Also I got a small brisket Pho and it was the perfect size!

    $5 for 2 summer rolls Was literally just lettuce shrimp and wrap nothing else
    Frankie C.

    Food was ok, nothing special. Summer rolls were literally just lettuce and shrimp.... Got the beef pho and that was pretty good. Summer rolls were $5 for two. Super disappointed with these.

    Pho P19. Pho Suon Boo

    As someone who travels the country multiple days a week for work I often try to find the best pho, ramen, Thai, dim sum etc... in each city I go to. I would say in my life I have had well over 25 different Vietnamese restaurants pho. Out of all of them this was in my top 2 if not the best I've ever had. The broth is absolutely spot on and the owners are extremely nice and attentive. If you are a pho connoisseur, this is exactly the bowl you are looking for. It's worth a 30+ minute drive. Believe me.

    Number 3 and 6 :)

I think it's interesting that the menu has Vietnamese, Korean, and Latin options. It made me a bit sad that even with the Korean options, there was no soju in the drink menu- it would go great with some of the options! but it's a Vietnamese restaurant so I get it. I haven't tried any of the Korean or Latin dishes yet, but when I do, I'll report back. As I am a creature of habit, I of course ordered the pho dac biet. The broth was good! I'd rate this pho a 3.5 due to a lack of meat (it was mostly the meat balls), but it was at a reasonable price of $14. They give cute little sauce jars with hoisin sauce and siracha sauce! The third sauce is my favorite, though. It's vinegar with pickled (?) onions and chili! So yum... For dessert we got the mango sticky rice!! A bit on the pricy side at $9, but it was super good!

What we got: Grilled Beef Rolls - 3.5* I loved the dipping sauce but thought the rolls were just fine. My partner enjoyed them a lot more. Basil with thick rice noodles (chicken) - 4* great flavour! There was plenty of chicken and noodles, though the later was stuck together in an big clump that I had to break up. Pad Thai (combination) - 3* my partner didn't love the sweetness and thought the meat was a bit overcooked. I did not like the flavour of this dish at all and did not go back for more bites after my initial taste.

The food and service has always been fine, but my experience last night ordering through Uber Eats was so poor, that I won't patronize them again. The food took more than an hour for delivery, which I expected; it was a Friday night and I knew they were busy. However, we ordered Crispy Tamarind Chicken as an entree and they forgot to include the sauce with the vegetables which goes on the chicken. Without it, it's just a pile of fried chicken. I tried calling the restaurant, but more than 15 calls went directly to voicemail and I couldn't leave a message because their voicemail was full. This has happened before when we have tried to call in a take out order. When they finally answered, the woman said she would check with the kitchen and then told me they could remake the sauce, but I would have to come pick it up because they were so busy. By this time, it was at least 45 minutes since the chicken had been cooked and it would have taken me at least 40 minutes to go pick up the sauce, so I refused. She said they would not refund me; I had to complain to Uber Eats. They know they are going to be busy on Friday nights; lack of staff is a continuing problem which never seems to be addressed and they need to upgrade their phone system and answer their phone. The kitchen staff is sloppy; there is no excuse for forgetting one of the main components of a dish. It would have been nice if they had at least apologized. As much as my husband likes this place, there are plenty of other great options in Frederick and they are where I'll be eating in the future.

    Tiny spot, BIG flavor... and that spice will humble you…read more We popped into My Thai for a late lunch after a medical appointment, craving something spicy, savory, and satisfying... and wow, this place delivered like a punch in the mouth (in the best way possible ). First impression: it's a small space, but really well decorated, spotless, and welcoming. Service was genuinely friendly and warm from the moment we walked in. Now the food... My husband ordered the wide rice noodles with beef (think drunken noodle vibes), and honestly, that dish alone is worth the trip. Perfectly cooked noodles, tons of flavor, and just the right amount of heat. I may or may not have helped myself to more than a few bites while he stepped away... sorry, not sorry. I went with the red curry with coconut and chicken, loaded with fresh vegetables. It was rich, fragrant, and completely slurpable. Exactly what I was craving. The crispy spring roll came out piping hot and perfectly fried, with that satisfying crunch on the outside. Fair warning: the spice here builds. It starts friendly... and then sneaks up on you in the best way Bonus points for the lunch specials, which are very reasonably priced and a great value for the quality and portion size. All in, super fresh, perfectly prepared dishes, warm service, and bold flavors. Highly recommend... we'll absolutely be back.
