I started with the chicken potstickers, which I enjoyed, though I thought they were cooked a little bit much as they were quite hard but very tasty. The sauce that they provided with them didn't seem to fit exactly, but it wasn't a deterrent. I went with the meatball for, and it came out like you would expect. I would say that I was slightly disappointed with the amount of meatballs in the broth, which seemed to be two or three less than I would've expected, and they didn't provide much in the way of the bean sprouts or other accoutrement to add to it. That said, those weren't bummers, just something of note. Lastly, the mango smoothie was tasty and served as a nice dessert zipper into the evening.

There are only a handful of Vietnamese restaurants in Bend. Pho Viet & Cafe was last on the list of…read morepho places I wanted to try. There was no particular order I wanted to try them in, it's just how the cards fell. Pho Viet & Cafe has a large selection of items ranging from traditional pho, cold noodle dishes, and Hue-style Bun Bo Hue. They even have banh mi sandwiches which seemed on the very pricey side for my liking. What stood out were non-traditional pho dishes like duck and shrimp. I made a mental note to try those in the future. My daughter and I ordered two bowls of the standard pho dishes. Now, this is where things get confusing. I actually wasn't that crazy about my bowl. It came with tons of meats which I appreciate. They definitely give you your money's worth but the broth lacked flavor. My daughter liked her bowl so I didn't say anything. We took leftovers home and I reheated her portion later. I saved a little broth for myself to sip and it was fantastic. It was an excellent sip of broth and everything I expected from quality pho. That's the confusing part of this story because both our dishes came from the same pot of broth. At least, they should have. In any case, we got two different experiences. That simple decision on my part to save the extra broth for myself earned Pho Viet & Cafe an extra star. It was good and I definitely will be coming back.

I went to grab my sweat from the car and the food was already done. The food itself was great! I have been chasing a good banh mi and this is the only place in Bend so far that hits the spot. I normally dont even do pork but the pork banh mi is dank. I love the quality of the meat. The lemon grass adds an awesome flavor to the sandwich as a whole. The bread was also good quality. I had to travel a little ways after running one last errand so it looks a little worse for wear, but held up super well imho. The food cart pod also has a good ambiance, it is open with seating and little fires, plus an indoor seating area.

Our server, Shayla, offered different rice options (even though we didn't ask), like coconut rice and jasmine rice, without mentioning they came with an additional charge. It sounded like a standard option that came with the entrée, as is common with many Asian dishes, so my kids chose the coconut rice. We didn't realize it was an upcharge until later, which was a bit disappointing. Also, the hot tea wasn't refillable, which was surprising. Overall, the food was very good, but clearer communication on pricing would have made the experience even better.

We got ... forgot the name but it was a beef and broccoli with veggies - super good. And chilaquiles - holiday style (red a green sauce). Both were flavorful and hearty - very filling. Price was decent - I think it was less than $40 for both meals which, today, is great for two entrees. It was quick to come out - since it was take out and close to closing I waited in their seating area and they had water available for me - love that. We will be back to try other foods the next time we are in Bend! Well done, Spork, well done.

The soup is served in a disposable bowl (microplastics anyone?) even when you tell them you are eating in. I find it strange that they won't serve the side of bean sprouts and minimal jalapeño and basil (which comes in a plastic bag) unless you ask for it to "prevent waste" when they are serving everything to you in single use plastic - so much waste! One time I had a strange interaction when I tried to order the vegetarian pho plus shrimp for my husband and I to share. The owner literally said no, it's too big. She was telling me I was ordering too much food, even through I repeatedly told her it was so share. Was she judging me? Why did she care? I'm a paying customer, don't you want my money? Strangest interaction I've ever had ordering food. About the boba: I asked if the flavors were real or syrup, and she said, "there's no real fruit it's just diabetes in a cup." Not very appetizing. I ordered a boba anyways for my kids to share and to this day, my kids (who love sugar) think boba is disgusting because it's too sweet. I don't get this place at all.

When we arrived, it was absolutely pouring, with the wind blowing the rain sideways so the tiny overhang in front didn't provide much protection. Classic Milk Tea, 50% Sweet ($7) - The milk tea tastes like it is made from powder, although they do sell black and green tea without creamer, so I'm a little confused. Perhaps those are powder too? The drink is pretty thick with a lot of body and it has a harsher kind of sweetness that is too sweet for me even at half. While I prefer fresh brewed tea, powdered milk tea has come a long way through the years, and this one isn't bad at all. In fact, there's a certain brand of powdered milk tea that I'd drink over a lot of boba shops. The drink comes with boba. It's a little on the firm side, so the bounce and chew are a bit lacking. The pearls are all different sizes and have a softer velvet-like layer on the exterior, indicating some kind of sugar soak. They aren't very sweet compared to the drink, though. Milk Tea Rating: 3.5/5 Boba Rating: 3.5/5 For being in a small city without much of a boba presence, Boba Tea Bend scratches the itch. It's certainly not stellar, but it does in a pinch.
