Recently came back here and enjoyed my experience. Can't beat these prices anywhere in the DMV!read more

Came here for lunch on Monday (MLK Day) around 1:30 with my wife, and it honestly hit me that we've…read morebeen here plenty of times but I've never actually left a review. Which is wild, because I know I've taken a bunch of food pics here that I've never posted... complete waste lol. We walked in and were seated immediately and ended up getting the second-to-last available booth. Most of the room was couples on lunch dates, plus a group of friends, and later a party of about 7 took over one of the tables. Noise level was mostly moderate, with a quick sprinkle of loud when that bigger group got going, but nothing crazy, still totally fine for a date or a relaxed lunch. My wife ordered the A2 (slices of eye of round steak, well-done flank, and soft tendon). I got the A6 (eye of round steak and soft tendon). The pho was good, the broth had a lot of flavor. I did order extra noodles because while I like the pho here, the portions are a little smaller compared to some other spots we go to. I loaded mine up with bean sprouts, tore up some basil, and let the jalapeños sit in the bowl for a bit for heat. Lately though, I've been more about the chili oil, which they'll bring out if you ask. We also got shrimp summer rolls, which are always a go-to for me when eating pho anywhere. These were fresh, great texture, and the basil really pops. The peanut sauce is one of the best parts. Honestly, I could come here just for the summer rolls and that sauce. I also grabbed a taro smoothie, lightly sweet and creamy, solid choice. Food came out fast, maybe 8 minutes after ordering. Service here is consistently good. The staff is friendly, not pushy at all, and they actually check in on you without hovering. You can always get someone's attention if you need something. They even let a couple move from a table to a booth once one opened up, which I thought was a nice touch. The place itself is very clean, the tables and floors are always well kept. I don't really remember music, but there was a TV on playing college basketball. Overall vibe is relaxed. Parking can be a little tight since it's tucked behind a Rita's and the layout is kind of awkward, but even when it's full you're not walking far, just a compact lot. Price-wise, our total was about $40, but that included an extra summer roll and an extra smoothie. Without the extras, it would've been under $30. My only real critique is portion size for the price, specifically with the pho. It's not a deal breaker, but it's why this isn't my go-to spot when I'm really hungry. I'm a big guy with a big appetite -- my wife would be fine eating here any day of the week. Would I come back? Yeah. The food is good and the service is solid. For me, this is more of a quick lunch spot or a stop when I'm on the move, rather than a full dinner destination. Consistent, reliable, and never a bad choice, just depends on how hungry you are.

Came here for the first time with a group of friends. I ordered the tofu and vegetable pho (large)…read morewith vegetable broth and the shrimp summer roll. Total came out to approximately $20 (not including tip). What's Hot - Quality. Delicious. My vegetable pho with tofu and vegetables included ingredients like broccoli, carrots, tofu cubes, nappa cabbage and even daikon. - Menu. This is one of the most extensive menus I've seen at a Vietnamese restaurant. Not only do they have the standard pho options, to include bun and drinks, but there are also clay pot options, Singaporean noodles, savory crepes, seafood, and vegan options. There is the option of ordering vegetable broth, which I did, and was delicious. - Price. For the portions and quality of the food, good value for money. I ordered a large pho. That in combination with my summer rolls was enough to get me full and not stuffed. - Service. Because there was a small group of us, we asked they provide us separate checks, which they did. They did a good job of keeping track of our orders and our final tabs were accurate. We did not wait a long time for our food, as well. The only thing that took longer than the pho was the crepe that my friend ordered, but it wasn't too long. My group took a while to order, because we were chatty. We also stuck around for some time after finishing our meals. Their staff was great in checking in on us and refilling our water afterwards. For me, the mark of good service is when they continue to check in on your even after paying your tab. - Layout. It's a small restaurant, but there are booths and tables. There's also a good size parking lot in the plaza. What's Not - Layout. Their layout does not appear to accommodate groups more than 6 people. This location is also a bit of a drive for me, so it's not the most convenient, but that's specific to me. Final Answer Definitely worth returning to.

The food was amazing to say the least. It came out fresh and hot. The broth was very flavorful…read more with a strong umami flavor, the brisket was tender and soft. Keep in mind, you do have to ask for herbs (bean sprouts, Lime, Mint, and jalapeños) which is $1 extra. The chicken wings were super crispy and tossed generously in a sweet garlic sauce, although, I would skip if you don't like garlic. The tea was okay, very floral from the jasmine which kind of overtook the raspberry flavor. Our Order - 2x Pho #33 1x Garlic Lime Chick Wings 1x Raspberry Jasmine Tea Overall, it's a cute family owned Pho spot. The staff are nice and welcoming. They were busy so they were kind of rushy with taking orders but it didn't bother us much. The kitchen, storage area, and bathrooms were very clean. Definitely will visit again

I heard about the line outside of the door of this place that sits only 30+ people…read more I saw them place a sign on the door an hour before closing that EVERYTHING is sold out. I ordered the curry...they're out, my back up plan was the homey chicken. FLAVORFUL is the word! I still need to go back and get the curry. Pho is in the title, and YES it is amazing the broth is magnificent! We met the owner her pride in her dishes is what makes me want to come back and the flavor!!! The calamari is A-mazing!! My only reason for a 4 and not a 5 is because they ran out of the dish I came for. This is a must visit. You will leave happy and full.

In terms of soups, recommend their pho and bun bo hue. If you come for the pho, you can also request to make the broth spicy. We also tried their fried rolls and egg crepe. Both were good and good for sharing. Also, their chicken pho is really tasty. Definitely recommend this place. Again, this place gets packed during the lunch / dinner hours. Also, the staff here are very friendly and nice. Will definitely return in the future.

The mango shrimp salad was phenomenal--bright, refreshing, and packed with flavor. It was the perfect mix of sweet, tangy, and savory, and honestly could've been a meal on its own. The fish sauce chicken wings were outstanding: crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and coated in a rich, savory sauce that kept you reaching for another wing. We also had the bún bò Huế, which was bold and deeply flavorful with a nice level of spice--exactly what you want from this dish. The pho was comforting and well done, with a clean, aromatic broth and generous portions. The spring rolls were fresh and light, a great starter to balance out the heartier dishes. Overall, Pho Diner delivered on every dish we tried. Solid Vietnamese food with great flavors and variety. Definitely a spot worth coming back to if you're in the Pasadena area.

Beautiful establishment!…read more The waiters were very attentive and gave some good suggestions. My boys enjoyed the strawberry milk tea. My dad had the salmon meal and enjoyed that. The pho was so good! I enjoyed the shrimp one. My boys didn't care for the beef rib. Wished the meat was more seasoned. I would definitely be back. Clean establishment that has been there for 3 years. Give it a try!

This is not Pho Deelite. Kind of hidden on the side of them. Great service, fast and tasty food…read more They even have some Cantonese stuff like oil sticks, porridge and chow fun! Pho just a couple of gripes, soup us pretty oil, should be strained a lot more. Noodles seem to have been cut, they are a bit short and tons of small bits on the bottom of the bowl you'll need to fish out. Much better than Pho Deelite, recommend coming here instead!

This is an average clear broth PHO. It is very traditional and you will get what you expect. I…read moredon't think it is the best Pho in town, but I do have it most times I am in the area because I am a lover of Pho. When I first started coming here it seemed to be managed by Vietnamese but now it appears to be all Latino staffed. Perhaps it changed hands. The quality it still similar, I just appreciate when the ethnicity of the food matches the staff, when possible. But, the staff is friendly and the service is quick. Only thing I don't like is that they are open until 9:PM but it seems if you come after 8:30 they are cleaning up and don't really want to serve you. They should serve until closing time. This is not uncommon in restaurants, but you know... sometimes you really want that bowl of Pho! The search engines list them as OPEN, but they really aren't. I like it and will keep returning. I think we only have 4 Pho places in the Annapolis area (this, Eastport, Severna Park and Davidsonville) so we need to keep them all in business! :)

This is my third visit to Thai at Waugh Chapel within 2 weeks. Keep in mind it is a 30 minute drive…read morefrom my home (1 hour there and back) and I didn't mind one bit. I must say each visit was FANTASTIC!! With every one getting better than the last. For some reason it is so difficult to find good Pad Thai in Baltimore. Not here though. The have MASTERED the recipe. It wasn't dry with noodles sticking together like most places. It is honestly one of the best Pad Thai's I have ever had. The only complaint I do have is that I paid extra to have shrimp added to my chicken Pad Thai and was only given 3 shrimp! That is definitely an issue. If a customer is willing to pay extra for something please make it worth it. I also do not like the fact that they use brown paper boxes for to go containers/orders. Other than that, everything else was FANTASTIC. The Pad Cellophane was a nice surprise and different from what you typically find at Thai restaurants. The clear cellophane noodles, huge chunks of chicken and cherry tomatoes offering a juicy pop of brightness with each bite is dream worthy. I also love a good Pad See Eew. And again, they got it right. Not too dry and very flavorful. Everything I had on every visit was..."Chef's Kiss." Even down to their desserts. I am not a big sweets person and typically do not order desserts when I go out to eat. But reading the description of each one I just couldn't resist. And yes, they won me over! The Mango Parfait was absolutely delicious. Mango and sweet sticky rice combined with Mango ice cream...simply divine. The Lycee Cheesecake was a pleasant surprise. I forget the name of the other dessert I had, but it was another Mango flavored one and yes, that too was very good. All in all I will definitely return when I am craving good Thai food. I will happily take that one hour round trip ride to get it. If you are in the area or don't mind taking a ride I would definitely recommend you give them a try if you are craving some authentic, delicious Thai food. You will not regret it!!
