Pho 79 is a great spot for a quick bite to eat. They have great prices and generous portion sizes for all of their different menu items. You order your pho On a numerical system which makes it very easy to order. My boyfriend and I ordered the pork and shrimp spring rolls which came with a peanut sauce. The peanut sauce had a great presentation but the test was very overpowering. Spring rolls had a great flavor and were surprisingly refreshing. We both ordered two different types of phos and both were super delicious. Service was very quick and super friendly. The moment we walked in the door they greeted us and told us to sit in a booth. The moment we came in they immediately greeted us with water and menus and then took our order once we were ready and the food came out within 5 to 10 minutes of when we ordered it. My boyfriend is not a huge fan of soup but he highly recommends coming here whenever you're hungry and willing to try something new. read more

AMAZING VEGETARIAN PHO. Really good portion, price, quality, and taste. Vegetarian pho is hard to come by in Miami (if not impossible). This is not only the sole veggie pho in the city, but the BEST I have ever had anywhere. I lived in NYC before this, so I have tried many an overrated bowl, but this little Sweetwater gem is truly outstanding. Get the large for a few bucks more, and this amazing dinner will still only cost you $12. I ate the other half for lunch the next day and it was still amazing. Every pho comes with a big plate of basil, culantro, jalapeno, bean sprouts. And the veggie one has 3 different kinds of proteins: some faux meatballs, regular fried tofu, and these bread-like gluten proteins. SO... GOOD! read more

First time going there and it was nice. Located across the FIU campus, it was quiet when I got there about 1140am. Then eventually, the students came in and it got loud and busy....but for them thats a good thing. Menu was slightly confusing but was able to manage. I ordered the Rice Vermocelli with grilled chicken. Didnt know was to expect. No pictures available for this but I was expecting rice. It was white rice pasta. To my surprise it was delicious. I wish there were more chicken though. You were given a small bowl of peanuts and sauce. Didnt know what to do with them. My coworkers put them in their meals. I guess it's a thing but wasnt directed. I just watched my coworkers. Perhaps the waiter asks if this is my first time, and explain what to expect...that would be nice. Order taken on iPad seems like a great idea. Foods are referenced as number for the easy transition of ordering instead of attempting to say the names of some of these dishes. Overall, it was nice and would go again. read more

'I like this place more than the other Pho 79' -direct quote from my wife... Is it because it's bigger? cleaner? more open? fancier? in Miami? got better service? Not quite sure what brought her to say that but the menu & food are exactly the same as the place in Davie which is already pretty good... The dining area does appear a bit more updated & cleaner and the service might be a smidge more attentive but the food is nearly identical and that is a good thing. Kids enjoyed their steak pho & we enjoyed our pho. There's no Asian market next door and Vietnamese bakery so less overall money is spent by the family (my wife)!!! read more

We were in Miami for a 4-night Bahamas cruise and had our last meal here before boarding the flight back to DC. We arrived at around lunch time. Luckily we were seated right away despite the place being jam packed, and food came out about 15 mins later. I had a #33 pho, my family had #30, #26, and #36 (the seafood pho). The broth was awesome! We gobbled down our phos in no time. The portions of bean sprout, jalapeno, and lime slices given were very generous. Lots of scallion and cilantro in the broth, yum! The minor complaint I had was the meat - it was not as juicy as phos I had at other places. Squid in the seafood pho was a little chewy; I'm guessing they used frozen squid, not fresh squid - it was obvious from how it tasted. Overall, I would definitely return for a meal if I am in the area again. read more

I can not rave about this place enough! I had never had Pho before, neither had my husband. They sat us down as soon as we arrived, which was great considering they were packed. Our waiter explained everything to us, he gave us recommendations on what we should have as first timers, what size of bowl to choose, everything! I was not disappointed. The egg rolls were delicious and are served with a nice sweet&sour sauce that pairs great with it. But of course, what we were most excited for was the Pho. I loved it! And i loved that you can spice it up to your liking. They bring you a separate plate that has "extras" for you to add in yourself. So happy that we have this gem so close to us!! read more

Rating: 5.0 Been a…read morehuge fan of the Iron Chef show since I was a kid and my favorite has aways been the Japanese Chef Masaharu Morimoto! And since experiencing his Disney Springs restaurant Morimoto Asia, I had been looking forward for him to come to Miami. This was a couple of years back during the cooler season in Miami. RESTAURANT: I just know that this location is going to be beautiful. Chef Morimoto restaurants are worldwide and so I was not disappointed to see how beautiful this restaurant was and how perfectly complemented the vibe of the Wynwood scene. The restaurant doors open to the street, which was perfect during our winter visit. Inside is an open floor plan with a variety of seating options from the izakaya style table, banquet dining against the wall, to the huge bar. There are even covered seating outside that reminded me of New York. Decor is both minimal but with burst of colors with his signature wall art and backlit panels against the wall. And ofcourse, it won't be an authentic Japanese restaurant without the a display of hyper-realistic food models which can be found as soon as you enter the restaurant to entice your taste buds. Everything just looked sleaked and clean and love the pop of green from the huge fig trees. SERVICE: Service was amazing. From the moment we entered, we were greeted and seated right away for our reservation. Our server answered all of our questions and suggested some fruity cocktails. And lo and behold, owner Chef Morimoto himself presented us with our food and torched it right infront of us! He was so polite and humble and wonderful. We watched him moved from one side of the restaurant to the other with the endurance of a guy in his 20s and he's like 60 something! He did not stop. It was such a treat to have him in our table and how he indulged us when we chanted "Iron Chef! Iron Chef!". It was an amazing experience. FOOD: The menu have the right amount of options, from finger food to ramen, sushi and not to mention the drinks. For starters, pork belly and soft shell crab bao and bbq ribs. Deliciousness! The buns warm and pillowy. The pork, so tender. But that soft shell crab...that made me want to slap someone it was so good. Flavorful, no fishiness whatsoever, crunch on the outside and just happiness on the inside. I will eat a million of these. Then my friend ordered some Yakitori fresh from the grill: chicken, pork belly, shrimp, wagyu. They were simple, fresh and so fingerlicking good. Then the ramen; tonkotsu and gyukotsu. On this cold evening, it was exactly what we needed. These two huge bowls we passed around our table of six. The broth were divine! The pork belly was so delicate that it melts in your mouth. The beef falling off the bones were so tender and delicious. Sushi rolls: spider roll and the surf and turf. The spider roll with that soft shell crab was bomb. But the that A5 wagyu surf and turf was the star of the show. It comes out as raw slices on a roll and Chef Morimoto came out and torched it himself next to our table! I don't know if it tasted spectacular because it's wagyu or because the chef himself had torched it but this was my favorite! Overall, this was the most memorable dining experience I've had in a long time. I am sure that fangirling over the Iron Chef was the main reason but it seems that everything just fell into place for us that evening. Parking was literally next door in the garage, super easy no drama. Service was next level, maybe because the boss was there but we were not going to complain. And the food, impeccable! Pricepoint is just reasonable considering the quality, quantity and the location. It is definitely worth the trip coming here and I can't wait to visit again soon to see if everything will be the same without the Chef Morimoto around. I have a feeling it will be just as wonderful.

Flavors That Hit Different…read more From the moment the steaming bowl of ramen landed on the table, we knew we were in for something special. The broth was rich and soulful, the noodles had perfect bite, and the tender pork and seasoned egg tied it all together beautifully. Every spoonful was comfort in a bowl. But the real showstopper? The sticky, fall-off-the-bone ribs--coated in a bold, flavorful glaze with just the right amount of heat and sweetness. Paired with crisp, refreshing cocktails, this meal was a masterclass in flavor and balance. Momosan Wynwood blends casual vibes with culinary precision. Highly recommended for anyone seeking authentic Japanese comfort food with flair. Must-tries: Tonkotsu Ramen, Sticky Ribs, Yuzu Mojito.

During a recent trip to Miami, we had a few hours to spare before our flight and decided to try Pho 79, drawn in by its 4-star rating. Since Vietnamese cuisine is relatively scarce in the area, we were curious and hopeful. Unfortunately, the $28 one-way ride proved to be a regretful investment. While I can't speak to the pho itself, the pork chop rice and grilled pork vermicelli were both disappointing. These dishes, which are staples of Vietnamese cuisine, were unrecognizable in both taste and presentation. The pork chop was covered in a thick, sweet glaze that bore no resemblance to the traditional marinade of fish sauce, garlic, sugar, lemongrass, and shallots. Similarly, my wife's grilled pork tasted overly sweet and lacked the charred, savory complexity we expected. When we inquired about the preparation, the waiter mentioned kiwi was used in the marinade--an ingredient not traditionally found in Vietnamese cooking. He explained it was meant to appeal to the palates of non-Vietnamese customers. While I can't verify the intent, the result felt like a departure from the dish's cultural roots. Overall, if you're seeking authentic Vietnamese flavors, this may not be the spot. The experience left us disappointed--not only in the meal but also in the restaurant's apparent prioritization of fusion over authenticity. read more

After a long drive, I was excited to find a Vietnamese restaurant in Miami, specifically Pho 79. However, I was disappointed to discover that this is not the same 79 Pho Authentic from California. Here's a breakdown of my experience: 1. **Pho Dac Biet**: The broth was overly salty, and the meat did not taste fresh. The amount of noodles was acceptable, but overall, it fell short. 2. **Spicy Beef Noodles (Bun Bo Hue)**: This dish used Pho broth with shrimp paste added, resulting in a very unpleasant smell. The meat was dry and did not resemble authentic Bun Bo Hue. 3. **Pork Chop Rice**: I was shocked by how tasteless the grilled pork chop was. It seemed like it had been microwaved and covered in sauce rather than freshly cooked. 4. **Grilled Pork with Vermicelli**: The vermicelli was dry and appeared old. It wasn't heated properly, leaving it broken and unappetizing. The grilled pork was flavorless, and the egg rolls were overly salty. 5. **Grilled Tofu**: This dish was the biggest letdown. The tofu was only microwaved and topped with hoisin sauce, leaving it cold in the center. I genuinely wish I could give this a zero-star rating. Overall, Pho 79 in Miami does not represent Vietnamese cuisine well. I urge the owners to reevaluate the quality of their food. read more

I hardly write Yelp reviews but use Yelp before eating at any establishment. This highly rated Pho place was completely overblown. Horrible customer service. I had to go through 3 people to explain that my Pho Ga (chicken pho) was over cooked. The owner/cook finally came out after going through 2 people- he could only replace the same over cooked chicken pho with another one but will not let me switch without charging me for the one I ordered. I didn't want to pay for another one so I asked him to replace the same chicken pho but requested to chop the chicken into smaller pieces since the big chunks tasted like rubber. I was just suggesting this method to see if it will improve it a bit since when you place cooked chicken breast into a hot boiling broth it is going to taste like rubber if you don't have the quality meat or prepare it wrong - the owner/ cook just kept jabbing back and forth with no intention on listening to my needs. The other chicken pho came with smaller pieces but the same issue - the quality of the chicken being used or the style is just not working out for this dish then the poor quality of service just made it a bad experience for me to finally share my view. read more

While undeniable that this new hit on the block serves up some pho-nomenal (since everyone's throwing around puns, I may as well too!) dishes, what's preventing this from being a full-blown five-star raver is its flavor. Many years back (without dating myself), I spent a good few months traveling around Southeast Asia and found myself constantly heading back to Vietnam precisely for its Pho. Nothing like a warm bowl of noodles and broth on a hot humid day to work those beads of sweat. Despite the heat, I couldn't stop wanting more. THAT'S good pho. Now, I know Miami ain't Ho Chi Minh. But after trying the real thing, it's hard for me to fully appreciate Pho 79. That's not to say that their dishes aren't good - hell I'd like to give them a prize for opening up so close to home to save me from always wanting to compulsively buy an air ticket back to Vietnam pho the pho. All I can say is, despite being so far away, they sure do serve up some delectable and extremely cash-worthy pho. Oh, even if you're not hungry, definitely get at least the medium. That delicious broth is bound to work up an appetite from the very first drop. read more

Looking for Fast Pho or Vietnamese food then this is the place for you. Been here a few times now at the sweetwater location across from FIU. I don't think nothing here is made to order. Everything seems to be premade and put together when ordered. I have gotten my appetizers and meal before my glass of water. It's not a bad thing if you're in a Hurry but if you're looking for Fresh Made Vietnamese food then this is Not The Place for You. It's Ok Nothing to Write Home About. I have gotten the rare beef pho it's ok lacking seasonings in my opinion and the beef short ribs. They're hit or miss gotten them twice once it was good and this time they had more fat than meat. :/ read more

The service of this restaurant really made me unhappy. We had three people to have dinner. The large size bowl for every one and gave us three lemons, but it was not enough for me So I asked for two more but I got answered was extra$1 and I was surprised because no one would charge for two slices of lemon when I went to all the restaurants,We also have Togo order then another waitress comes over to tell us :your takeout is ready at the front desk ,and I was wondering if you could come over and tell me but you can't bring it to me ?why we paid tips?My friend was also unhappy because there was hair in the meat he ate,We feel terrible service about the restaurant! read more

Pho 79 offers a delightful experience for pho lovers. The traditional pho is rich in flavor, and the generous portions ensure you leave satisfied. The abundance of seating and parking make it convenient for diners. However, the service leaves something to be desired; during recent visits, the waiter only appeared when delivering our food and at the end for the check, neglecting to check on us or offer more water. On the bright side, the service is swift, and the prices are incredibly reasonable. The highlight is the fresh assortment of veggies that accompany the pho, adding a refreshing touch to the overall dining experience. read more

This place is fantastic! Came looking for a good noodle bowl and got it. Great staff attention with prompt sitting. Covid guidelines were being followed with hand sanitizer station and ample spacing between tables. The salted Lemonade was a surprise of salty, refreshing sweet and lemon soreness all in one. Not sure how they did it. Food was hot and fresh. The aroma from the #30 Beef Pho bowl was warm, welcoming, cinnamon, anise, light and gentle. The Grilled Tofu bowl was ordered dry and the sauce coating the tofu was a great contrast to the fresh veggies. Highly recommend if looking for a good Pho! read more

If you go to this place tip the workers cash. There main guy who apparently manages entire restaurants accounts is named Jacky Truong. Company was in violation of diverting tips and shortaging hard working employees of there pay. Company owes each workers $4,839.27 dollars in backpay. I am very sure the food here is great but support these hard working employees especially during tough times of this Pandemic. Jacky Truong you should be ashamed for stealing tips & diverting hard working employees pay. Thank goodness for Miami-Dade & Federal investigation of Labor violations at this Chain. read more

How can food taste this good. I love going on weekends to different bars and restaurants to try out new places and I was not disappointed! This was actually my first time trying Vietnamese food but a friend recommended me to come here. I felt like I had a cultural shock on my tongue. It was so different from anything I had every tried and I will definitely come back here with my friends. The customer service was great as well! I have no complaints whats so ever read more

Thank goodness for this place! It's everything I could've asked for and then some. I got a large and was stuffed before I could even finish half. However, for the price difference between the small and the large, it's makes more sense to just bring home the leftovers, cause with a large, you'll definitely have some. Service was mediocre at first. It took some time for someone to come greet us, but once we got their attention everything was perfect. read more

This place was great. A simple menu, Pho with your choice of topping and some drinks. They bring it quickly and then you can go up to the counter and pay. Lots of seating. Parking can get a bit tight but there was a decent amount. The Beef flank was so flavorful and everything was cooked so perfectly, very filling. The service was super sweet and they are so fast. The broth has so much flavor you almost don't even want to add anything to it. read more

Im so glad Pho 79 opened up near my location . The Pho broth is well balance and tasty . I always get the House special beef Pho soup, #34, and it never disappoint me. The summer rolls are amazing as well. Very fresh and I love the peanut sauce that goes along with it. The staffs are nice as well very helpful. And the interior is very spacious and quite comfortable . Oh and for the price under 10 bucks with this of quality , can't beat it . read more

The Tai Chin Pho is a standout dish that combines tender beef, rice noodles, and a flavorful broth for a truly comforting and aromatic bowl of goodness. The egg rolls are equally delicious, with a crispy exterior and a savory filling that bursts with flavor. The friendly staff and cozy atmosphere add to the overall charm of the restaurant.

The taste of this Pho is very authentic, the soup base is delicious and mellow, with a strong aroma of beef bones. You can feel the essence of slow cooking with just one sip. The rice noodles are smooth and chewy, the beef slices are tender and delicious, and paired with fresh bean sprouts, basil and lemon, the flavor is rich. Every bite is full of Vietnamese style, definitely worth a try! read more

Husband and I have been coming to Pho 79 for a good while and I have not had the chance to Yelp this Pho-tastic food. The place is always clean, servers are super cool, and man, the food is scrumptious. Vietnamese Cuisine at its best! So many places that offer this food around town and I can say that Pho 79 is the best place for "Pho" in town. read more

Extremely disorganized especially on weekends. Always understaffed. Sat for almost 30 minutes before anyone even came to the table. Flies were in my pho once and they refused to do anything about it. Still insisted I had to pay for my meal. Needs new management and possibly a visit from a health inspector. read more

The tea itself was good and the pearls soft though I did notice the pearls themselves to have an almost crumbly texture to it which was a bit odd and to be honest not in a good way considering one has to pay extra for it.

So I jumped on Yelp to look for the nearest highly rated pho restaurant in came across Photastic. The yelp directions brought me to a parking space right in front of the restaurant. We arrived around 8 PM, an hour before closing. We were greeted immediately and sat in a nice table, which was clean and well equipped for a pho meal. Menus and water were brought immediately along with a warm greeting from the waitress. Immediately, I noticed that I had interacted with two members of the staff at each admin, gracious and welcoming. I found the discontinued through the entire meal with other people, stopping by to make sure that everything was perfect and being enjoyed by us. I went to the restroom to wash and noted it to be immaculate. This is usually one of the best signs that a restaurant pays attention to detail and I am always happy to see that they are meticulous. Our order was taken and we were served very quickly. First out was the condiments/toppings. The peanut based sauce for the spring rolls and the vegetables for the pho. We began with Gỏi Cuốn, Vietnamese spring rolls. Traditionally these are fresh shrimp, vermicelli noodles, and lettuce wrapped in thin, translucent rice paper served cold with a savory dipping sauce, often a peanut-based sauce and here they are customized with delicious fresh herbs and vegetables, as well as pork. Personally, I do not like it as much with pork, but had not noticed that it was made this way on the menu when I ordered and next time, I'll ask if it is available without the pork. I will say, however, that is hands-down, the very best Gỏi Cuốn I have ever eaten. My wife and I both ordered pho. She chose the chicken while I opted for the steak and meatball. We found all of the meats very chewy in texture, but they were extremely tasty. The portions were huge and the broth was delicious. The flavorful soups with fresh noodles and ingredients were both spectacular. Portions are excellent. I like mine spicy and the perfect condiments were available right on the table. The Matcha latte Boba tea was quite good as well. Prices were in line with other local restaurants which will somewhat high are right, where I expect them to be locally. The overall experience was great. I did notice that somebody walked in about a minute before the post to closing time and was turned away. While, I find this to be unusual in local family owned restaurants, it is certainly not unreasonable. So if you're a late eater, check the hours before arriving. This was my first visit in this restaurant has moved right onto my list of favorite comfort foods nearby my home. If you like pho, I highly recommend you try it.

First bite into it blew my mind of how crispy on the outside and soft in the inside the bread was. The flavor that came with every bite had me asking a sharing bowl to try all the other orders. Everything was delicious and definitely worth the sweat and calories that came with it. The gains of enriched flavor, strong beef collagen broth , and crispy vegetables spring roll noodles made a pleasant meal. It was not packed when we got there around 3 pm and the restaurant was spacious. Quick service as well.
