Pho 75 - Steak pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This is supposedly the best phở in Philadelphia, and the best I've ever had! And it's incredibly cheap compared to Boston. 1.Phở - Tái, Nạm, Gầu, Gân, Sách: The broth was dark, but the flavor was natural and umami; the beef was in big portion and large slices, tender, and the tripe had no gamey taste; the rice noodles were authentic Vietnamese phở, perfectly cooked and very refreshing. The biggest surprise was the tái (eye-round steak), yet still retaining that pleasantly chewy texture of undercooked beef; the gầu (fat brisket) was thick and crisp, fragrant but not greasy--who would have thought I'd find brisket fat here? This showed the restaurant's precise control over the broth temperature and the thickness of the beef. Almost all phở restaurants claim to offer authentic raw beef or various cuts of beef, but very few can truly make customers feel the difference. The restaurant's decor is simple but spacious and clean; the service is average, but very efficient. Efficiency is essential for phở, otherwise the beef would be overcooked in the hot broth. After all, the essence of a restaurant is food, and for such affordable ones, it's gratifying to see them spend most of their costs on the food itself. read more

Cash only!! A big warm bowl of pho was perfect for a cold winter day. The broth is definitely quite tasty but I will say it is on the saltier side so just be aware for friends who may have a low sodium diet. There was surprisingly a lot of meat and the plates of herbs and bean sprouts they brought out was also more than enough for my friends and I. The food comes very quick after you place your order which is very appreciated. The place fills up quick but also people eat pretty quickly and are leaving soon too so the wait shouldn't be too long. read more

Solid choice for Pho. The parking was exceptionally difficult and the lot is tight/packed. This is a cash only spot with an authentic menu. I started with the iced Vietnamese coffee. And ordered a large bowl of soup with sliced beef. The portions and price point were great. It was a warming dish. I do wish the broth had a bit more complexity in comparison to other Pho I have had around the city. Still a great meal. read more

***CASH ONLY***CASH ONLY*** First time at Pho 75 and I came in with high expectations, especially knowing it was one of Bourdain's favorite spots. The broth had great flavor, but my pho came out warm, not hot, which was disappointing. Service had more of a quick get in and get out vibe, and there was a line out the door when we left, so clearly it's a popular spot. Still great pho and worth the hype, just wish it had been hotter. read more

Very busy on the weekends, but still very fast service. Cash only! Comes with all the usual add-ins. Cooked-ness of the noodles isn't my favorite and the soup seemed to cool a little too quickly. I prefer Little Saigon Cafe in chinatown more read more

This place really does it well! Pho 75 has my favorite broth to date out of any pho place in the city. I haven't been to a ton, but this spot is great. The brisket and eye round steak is good, and they give you a generous portion as well. As always, the sauces and sides to put in your pho are fresh and tasty. Our waiter was with us within 5 minutes, and as soon as we ordered we received our drinks & food in less than 10 minutes. Talk about fast! They were showing the news and the eagles game in there so that was cool, but overall there's a good vibe in there. It's communal style seating which isn't my favorite, but everyone is enjoying their food so it's actually fun read more

Pho 75 - Slices of Eye-Round Steak and Well-Done Brisket - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Of course I have heard about this place for years. It is supposed to be some of the best Pho in the city. My friend and I had just stood out in frigid temperatures to protest ICE so we needed warm, hearty broth and noodles! This place did the job beautifully. We filled up on pho... mine with chicken and my friend with noodles and no meat. I was unaware they didn't serve tofu (my friend is a vegetarian) so keep that in mind. The broth was delicious, the chicken tender and the Vietnamese coffee was so good! This place has a good reputation for a reason. Efficient, kind service and delicious food! Go get you some! read more

A very straight forward pho place with only pho on the menu. The service was fast. We sat down, placed an order, and the food was out within 5 minutes. The pho was good and the broth was refreshing. The downside of this place is definitely the parking and that it is cash only (they have an atm machine). Cash makes it so the price isn't as high as its competitors though, so it has its pro and con. The parking though was terrible, and it definitely makes me hesitant on coming back. read more

I forgot to leave a review the last time I was here - this place is BUSTLING and totally busy in the weekends in the morning so be prepared to wait a bit. It is totally worth it and if you are a solo diner you can come in and feel totally at ease. It is a cafeteria style, so they will come and take your order and bring out the food and ticket then you go to the front and pay. It is cash only. This is some of the best pho I have ever had. It id inside an Asian market and it is a very authentic breakfast experience. Looking forward to being back! read more

Service was super quick and the vibe of the place feels really authentic. I ordered the #6 pho (eye round steak, well-done flank, and soft tendon) and it hit the spot, super flavorful, generous with the meat, and they hooked it up with plenty of bean sprouts, which I appreciated. Honestly, the bowl was loaded and tasted amazing. I'm from NY and would definitely come back to Philly just for this spot. Highly recommend if you're craving legit pho! read more

All pho, all the time. At least until 8 p.m. when they close. If a restaurant makes its mark with a signature dish, it's bound to be good. And Pho 75 is! The broth was rich and flavorful; didn't need to jazz it up with lime or jalapeno. Plenty of brisket, plenty of chicken in our respective soups. Depending on when you show up, parking could be an accident-waiting-to-happen in the tight lot. 2:30 -- past lunch, before dinner -- it was crazy. An hour later, plenty of spots. Pho 75 is one of several Vietnamese restaurants in the strip mall. Order at the table, pay at the counter. To reiterate what others said, cash only. read more

There are few words to describe how amazing this Pho was at Pho 75. After Anthony Bourdain raved about this place my friends and I had to go try it. it didn't disappoint. A simple menu, yet the flavor was just perfect. It was also nice how there was lots of seating in the restaurant, and the servers were nice. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for the (literally) perfect bowl of pho in the Philly area. read more

No frills, cash only restaurant, that delivers quality pho!!! They only have one main entree on the menu - pho! In different sized bowls. The broth is clear, flavorful and spiced just right. Not much of an MSG taste afterwards. There is plenty of meat, noodles and broth in the regular bowl. I like to ask for my bean sprouts blanched and they accommodate every time! Service is quick and simple. Food is served almost immediately. Ambiance is casual and basic. No crazy add ons or services. Parking can be tricky in the lot. Tight spaces and lots of other shops nearby. Tldr Food 4.5/5 Service 4/5 Ambiance 4/5 Will come again! Crave it lots. read more

After a wild wedding weekend, the only thing that could prepare you to tackle another day is a nice bowl of hot pho. And best believe that I will always trust a pho place with a number in it. Little did I know that Anthony Bourdain also came here before and raved about their food. I ordered the pho dac biet per usual with steak on the side and the soup was very good and clean. But I think it needed a little bit more beef bone flavor, still pretty good though. read more

I've been here many times and it never fails to be one of the best phos you can get in the tri-state area. Just good old school pho, even the raw meat which isn't done as much by other Vietnamese restaurants anymore. They only have pho as a main so yea. Another thing that I see that shows the place is confident in their food, cash only. read more

Pho 75 - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Food: The classic pho was absolutely delicious. The broth was flavorful and aromatic, and the noodles were cooked to perfection. The addition of actual lime was delicious, elevating the overall taste of the dish. Cost: The price was very reasonable for such a large and satisfying bowl of pho. It was a great value for the quality of the food. Environment: While the interior wasn't anything special, it was clean and functional. The ample seating was a plus, and the aroma of the broth was inviting. Service: The service was quick and efficient. The staff was friendly and helpful. Uniqueness: It was a classic, well-executed dish that satisfied our cravings. So happy that they provided lime with the dish because I kid you not, some places think its acceptable to give you lemon instead of lime. read more

I love Pho 75- super quick service and the pho is always delicious here. You seat yourself and there's a variety of items to choose from but of course their pho is the most popular item. Their broth is one of the best broths I've tasted - definitely flavorful and keeps people wanting to come back for more. It's a simple, casual restaurant, but the pho is so delicious that even my cousin from out of town always stops by when he's in the area for it. Highly recommend! read more

solid pho place in south philly, classic and never disappoints! pho 75 is a fantastic go-to spot for pho in philly. the broth is flavorful, the bowls are large, the service is fast. it's my favorite spot to guarantee a solid bowl of pho, it's consistent and exactly what i look for when i crave pho. the portion is fairly generous and there's a decent amount of meat. i haven't tried anything other than the pho here, but i would imagine that everything is decent. this spot is located in a lot with other east asian/vietnamese restaurants in south philly, making it a convenient location for people who are driving. no frills, the restaurant is large with ample seating, the tables are long and communal. my only complaint is that it isn't closer to where i live! read more

Pho 75 - Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Came in after a long weekend at Hijinx 2024 and it was mostly empty around 11:45pm / 12pm but once it hit 1pm there were no more seats! It looks very classic and old traditional viet restaurant with LOTS of seating. It's in the middle of a little Asian strip mall with lots of other options to eat but this is the main place for JUST PHO. I would definitely come slightly earlier for lunch if you're going to Philly on an on peak timing when an event is occurring. Also REMEMBER TO BRING CASH. They don't accept cards. There's also no banh mi - for that you might need to go next door so basically if you and your friends all want to sit next to each other you would be ordering pho. Well in our case that's exactly what we came here for. There was two sizes: the medium and large. The large is only slightly larger than the medium so it just depends on how much you want. We all ordered the first one on the menu, a classic. The broth tasted super flavorful and slightly more salty but because the noodles are so thin it sopped up all the flavor and that's where the golden experience lies. The bowl of pho was so nurturing and very tasty and the meat was all perfectly cooked filled with flavor. The lime was super juicy and added a good flavor to my broth. Since we needed some energy we ordered the black coffee and the black coffee with condensed milk. Since I'm a black coffee drinker who is more into third wave coffee I think this just taste like a French roast and it's not as refreshing as what id hope and not enough caffeine for me because it is dark roasted. The rest of the table got theirs with condensed milk which is a much better option for energy since the sugar in the condensed milk should wake you up instead of the coffee. This restaurant is an absolute gem and I can't wait to return whenever i can get a chance. read more

Food/drinks: broth was light and yummy. A bit salty but the thin rice noodles did a lovely job picking up the broth, flavoring the noodles well. The slice beef, flank, and brisket was cut just right. The lime added the perfect acidity to the soup as well. The lime they offered was probably the juiciest lime I ever got. (I usually get the dry ones!) The iced black drip pot coffee with condensed milk is a staple after a long weekend of raving. (post hijinx meal). The condensed milk is at the bottom so mix well before pouring onto the ice. Iykyk! Service: fast as hell. We got served and ate fast before the tables started filling up. Ambiance: it might be a hole in a wall pho spot but it's relatively big. A lot of tables. The restaurant is your typical viet pho spot surrounded by supermarkets and other Asian restaurants. They also have a parking lot. I was also tempted by the banh mi and boba shop next door. I will definitely get that when I come back! read more

The best, most consistently excellent pho I have ever had. You walk into an unassuming spot off Washington ave (and pray there is no queue), you signal how people are in your party, and you'll be directed to your table. Quick look at the menu and within a minute, you'll have a big hot bowl of delicious pho at your table. I love how smooth and quick the whole process is. The menu essentially has one thing on it, a bowl of pho, but you get to choose the meats. I usually choose to get it with flank, eye-round steak, and well done brisket. I also always go for the large. I add some siracha and squeeze in some lemon and we're off to flavor country. Such good pho, absolute banger, and so much food for a fair price. One of my biggest comfort spots in the city, can't reccomend it enough. Do attend. Regularly. read more

This was my first time at Philly's Pho 75 (I've been to the one in Arlington, VA, many times) and it was great. One thing I love about Pho75 is the efficient service. We were seated immediately and placed our order a few minutes later. Our pho came out quickly too. I got my classic #2 on the menu and it was great! The broth was flavorful and the meat was soft. We were given bean sprouts, Thai basil, jalapeños, and lime. We each got a small dish for dipping sauce, which I appreciated because I prefer my hoisin on the side. I typically get a regular size and take the extra broth home to make another pot of noodles. The large size is only $1-2 more expensive and would be enough to have leftover noodles too (for me at least). Pho 75 is cash only. They have an ATM on site. read more

This place is such a traditional pho restaurant located where all the Vietnamese strip malls are. This place is cash only but there is an ATM on site. We got the number 3 under the Pho section. It had well done brisket, fat brisket, soft tendon, tripe, round eye steak. I realized I am a bigger fan of the brisket than I am of tripe/tendon. I really liked the onions in the pho. The broth was pretty good as well. There is plenty of sriracha and hoisin sauce, as well as, cutlery. The place has shared tables for seating. The service there was pretty quick.

I've been to a lot of Pho places as a Vietnamese but this one specially located here in South Philly will always be the best! They have a few locations but this one is the best. The service is typical Asian restaurant quick and to the point no filter. The ambiance is decent nothing fancy but they don't advertise to be but still a great spot to grab pho when you're in the mood. You can tell an Asian restaurant is good if it has a lot of Asian people - pro tip!!! And when a place specializes in one item (pho) just know it's good because it focuses on one item! read more

Probably the best pho I've had on the East coast! The broth was clean and perfectly flavored. It came with plenty of meat and noodles. I'd say the ratio of meat to noodles is almost 1:1! I finished the broth to every last sip. My only complaint is that I wish the broth was hotter. I also got the iced coffee with condensed milk, which was average. I can't quite figure out what exactly could be better about it. Service was quick! Great place for a fast meal, I was in and out in 30 minutes! Even though there's some improvements that can be made, it's so rare for me to find a place that still makes pho the way it's supposed to be. read more
