    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.

    ***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.

    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

    Pho 75 is not just a place to get some hot soup on a cold rainy day. It is a beautiful ritual and you can tell by looking at anybody in the restaurant. You enter and are quickly served amazing and reliable pho surrounded by friendly people and calming music. A great spot to chat with friends or enjoy your own company with a moment of peace. Simple, wholesome, and so safe.

    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

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Absolutely amazing!! Holy crap was this good. Solid price as well! $12 for a regular size bowl. Took the B1 train here and it's about a 10 minute walk from the train stop. Safe walk. A bit shady walking form the train but there are other people and a new fancy apartment complex on the walk there. Pho was favor ful. Meat was tasty. Service was fast. 10/10 would recommend. RIP Anthony Bourdain

    Day trip in Philly and these place was highly recommended. Fast service, affordable and very tasty. They offer beef or chicken pho in a small or large size. Large space but it could be expanded because it seems to always be busy. Clean dishes and overall wonderful place.

    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.

    Is this cash only?

    Pho 75 only accepts cash payment.

    When did this restaurant open?

    not 100% sure about this location, but I know that it was here at least 16 years ago. In addition, their other family location in Maryland I can vouch has been open since the 90s at least.

    How are the desserts?

    The desserts are not as outstanding as the pho is. I would suggest walking over to Mr. Wish which is in the same strip mall.

    Do they have beef bone broth?

We also got the drop biscuits with strawberry rhubarb jam and omg am good! Our brunch was great and the interior was modern but felt homey and we had the best service and the manager also came to see things were going. I would definitely recommend this place and hope to come back next time I'm in town!

Atlantic Ave near the train tracks in Audubon. Their menu drew me in as they offer a wide selection of soups by the day as well as sandwiches, wraps, grilled cheese, burgers and hot dogs. Just think cozy comfort food. The inside has ample seating if you plan to dine in and a small counter in the rear to order out. I was greeted by a friendly young lady who was patient with me as I looked over the menu. I decided on a grilled cheese and green split pea soup. It was hard to decide because there were so many yummy looking choices. Service was quick and efficient. I was in and out in about 10 minutes. Everyone was very pleasant. The grilled cheese was perfect! So delicious! The split pea soup w/ homemade croutons and tiny bits of ham throughout sure hit the spot on this cold winter day. The place was very clean and cozy and there was a bit of a lunch rush so they definitely have a good reputation. Would love to see them expand their footprint. We could use more places that offer simple comfort food at affordable prices in South Jersey. Can't wait to return to try another one of their soups...and a grilled cheese. ***Oh! This is a CASH ONLY establishment. Apparently they also accept Venmo.***

The homemade DanDan noodles were our favorite, which are served with ground pork in a spicy peanut sauce. We also got the three cup chicken which was so good, with a sweet, licorice-like glaze.

Unfortunately the experience at pickup wasn't the best. I asked if they had included utensils and the gentleman at the counter said no. I asked for some since I was bringing the food back to my hotel and wouldn't have anything to eat with. He was pretty dismissive and didn't seem to want to give me anything. (I also didn't get any napkins.) Just a little strange when ordering takeout, utensils should be included right? Or at the very least be readily given out when requested? He begrudgingly gave me 2 pairs of chopsticks and a fork, said he ran out of spoons. I didn't notice the lack of napkins until I got back. Now for the food. We ordered dan dan noodles, a chicken lo mein, and Taiwanese minced pork rice. The noodle dishes were decent but the lo mein was a bit too al dente for our liking...especially for our young son. Didn't get a chance to eat the rice because we were all too full from the noodles. Appreciate the generous portions at least. Will see if the rice will make it home safely with us and reheats well. Can't speak on the ambience. Wasn't in there long enough to really look around. Will I order from them again or try in person in the future? I'm not sure. I wasn't blown away by the food or service so...
