I love this place. Food is consistent and fresh. Service is very personable and helpful with any questions. Very clean environment.

7. Pho Tai, Nam, & Sach
Menghai T.

I got the #7 pho tai nam sach. Unfortunately there was such a long wait for it to come out after 30+ minutes. It was suppose to come with rare steak, brisket and tripe. However I was missing the tripe. The pho was just average nothing crazy good or bad. At least there was a fair amount of meat in the soup. Tables were a bit sticky, untensil looked very beat up and not super clean. Staff and service was really bad as they never checked up on me after they put the order in. There is a 5% cash discount which brought the total to about $15. Overall a poor experience here, hopefully it was just a one off, but I won't be coming back anytime soon. Food: 4.0 Staff/service: 2.0 Value: 5.0 Overall: 3.3/10

Table has some kind of grime on it.

We arrived and weren't greeted. We sat down and it took approximately 10 minutes for a server to even acknowledge us. The table was sticky and dirty. When she did, she took our drink order. There were three of us. Myself, my wife, and my daughter. Another 6 minutes or so went by before she came back, without our drinks, to take our order. She took our order and then it was another 10 minutes before she finally brought our drinks. I ordered the Pho Tai Nam and asked for the spicy oils. It took about 15 more minutes to get our food and she didn't bring the chili oils. She finally brought them about 5 minutes later. All and all not a great experience. Food was good and correct though.

Simply Delicious! The food is so yummy! Strawberry boba is on point (first time having it frozen). The wontons are my absolute FAV!! They're perfectly crunchy on the outside, tender & tasty on the inside. Pho is cooked perfectly with flavorful broth Service is impeccable. Not a complaint* just a general observation, it was weird vibes with the 90s RnB music but made for an interesting dinner with throwback songs. Fried Wontons Pho Soup Strawberry Boba

Pho tai nam

Out of all the options we've tried, Pho 79 is our regular pho spot in the area. We come here A LOT. Service is great; everyone is so kind and attentive, and the food comes out quick. The boba smoothies are the perfect consistency and not too sweet but still delicious. I love the fried wontons as an appetizer. They're perfectly crispy, and the sauce they come with is really yummy. Everything on the menu is sure to please. My dad loves the short ribs. My husband & I always get the number 4 - pho tai nam. The broth is so flavorful, and adding a bit of sriracha gives it an amazing kick if you like extra spice. We'll continue to be back again and again as long as we live in the area.

Decent selection at good prices

The previous two times were perfect with apps and meals we've ordered. Even a co-worker of mine has been here and became a fan. Would the third time be icing on the cake for us? For this visit, we actually saw more people dining in with some ordering takeout. Not a bad deal on a nice Saturday afternoon. Staff was pretty busy around the restaurant keeping everyone happy. We were seated very quickly and ordered after a few minutes. For my meal, I ordered Cơm Thịt Gà Nướng (grilled lemongrass chicken) and a beverage of fresh squeezed sugar cane. The drink itself was really good. It wasn't too sweet and is actually good for you. Sophia drunk some and said the next time we come by, she'll order it. Great stuff indeed. The meal was very good as well. The chicken was cooked to perfection and there was plenty of veggies to go around. We got full halfway that we took it home where both still tasted great. Thanks again to Souper Pho and Banh Mi for this joyous occasion. We'll continue to be patrons the next time we're in the area :)

Came into Souper with a couple of friends to have dinner and decided to order the bánh xèo - I'm so…read moreglad I did! It arrived fresh and piping hot, with a beautifully crisp exterior that immediately told me it was made to order. The batter had that classic bánh xèo texture - thin but sturdy, with just the right amount of crunch without being greasy. Each bite had a satisfying contrast between the crisp shell and the warm filling inside. The plate came with a generous assortment of fresh greens, which added a nice brightness and balance to the dish. Everything tasted clean and well-prepared, and the greens paired especially well with the nước mắm dipping sauce, which was flavorful without being overly salty or overpowering. It had that familiar savory-sweet-tangy balance that really ties the whole dish together and makes you keep going back for another bite. What really elevated the experience, though, was the customer service. The owner was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and it genuinely felt like he was happy to have customers there enjoying the food. He even took the time to show off some of the restaurant's awards, which honestly just reinforced the feeling that this place knows exactly what it's doing! You can tell there's a lot of pride behind both the food and the space. The atmosphere itself was relaxed and comfortable, making it an easy spot to enjoy a meal without feeling rushed. Overall, this was a really solid experience from start to finish - good food, thoughtfully prepared, and paired with warm, genuine hospitality. Would absolutely recommend stopping by if you're in the area, and I'd definitely come back again to try more items on the menu!

Upon entering it's kind of a small place that doesn't have a lot of fan fare. I'm cool with that. We picked our seats and a super friendly lady sat us down. She was very pleasant and is super customer focused. We ordered an array of appetizers and two meals. Now... I gotta admit... while she was nice, after she left, it all kinda went downhill from there. The chicken was pretty good, but beyond that, the meals weren't that fancy. The spam appetizer is quite simple. Honestly, we were a little disappointed. Then the server after the lady was barely present. We left and were glad that we tried it, but with all the amazing options in the area, this probably won't be our first go-to. Food Taste: 3 Overall Service: 4 Value of service to cost: 4 Facility: 3 Ambiance: Small mom and pop place that is very pragmatic in seating and capacity. Repeat customer: nawh Dog Friendly: no

In the Grassfield area of Chesapeake, you will find this place near the Walmart shopping center. When you first walked in, you will be welcomed by 2 kiosk where you place your own order and pay in advance. There were 2 guys working in the kitchen so there wasn't any way to ask them questions if you had one ... ugh. After you place your order, you seat yourself and they will bring your food to you. Chicken Pho- not good! It was salty and had a very strong taste of star anise that I could not eat it!! So back to the kiosk I go. This time I got the Pad Thai. Pad Thai- the portion was plenty, like a serving size for 3 people. It was very saucy and had a very strong taste of tamarind to the point it was too sour and again not tasty at all. I wasn't going back to that kiosk and left hungry and disappointed. I saw a lot of To-Go orders on their smoothies so maybe that's what I should have gotten instead!

Very pretty beach decorations that make you feel like you're in Virginia Beach. The food is to-go and you just go up to order. There's chairs for you to sit while you wait for your order. I decided to go here since I'm originally from NoVa and have been on the hunt for Banh Mi ever since my go to place in Richmond went down in quality. I was a a little disappointed that they no longer sold the Vietnamese food that they had many years ago that I had seen on previous reviews (lemme tell you, I would've bought everything) but I was glad they still had banh mi on the menu. My significant other got a cat fish po boy. Combination banh mi: It is HUGE! the sandwhich is about a foot long. The filling has all of the normal veggies such as cilantro and pickled carrots and radish but the meats were a bit different. There was some sort of sausage in it but there was also your normal Vietnamese ham and pork. I was a bit disappointed that the bread wasn't a Vietnamese baguette. It was a bit softer than that and also looks nothing like it. Still, the flavors were the closest to Banh Mi Ba Le. My quest to find bread that is the right texture unfortunately has failed Newport News and its surrounding areas. But, the meats are the closest I can get around here. Catfish po boy: we got 6" because my partner wasn't super hungry but this thing was still HUGE! we had 4 pieces on fish on it and it was HEAVY. 100% worth your money and it tasted great! Overall, a very big bang for your buck. I just wished they still served more Vietnamese dishes. Next time I want to try their shrimp though.
