Been trying a bunch of vermicelli bowls around Seattle, and decided to give this place a shot! The place was very spacious and the staff was quite attentive to our needs. I went with their Marinated Grilled Pork with Egg Rolls. The portion size was decent, but I found their flavors to be quite lacking. read more

Pho 99 - Marinated Grilled Pork with Egg Rolls Vermicelli - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Very good price for the area. Lots of parking. Fast service. Really enjoyed the pho and the broth: we had regular pho and then chicken pho. Both broths were good temperature and meat was tender. Free hot tea to start the meal definitely was a plus. They had a big table in the middle for groups of 8+. Would recommend. read more

Pho 99 - Noodle Soup With Eye Round Steak & flank Noodle Soup With Eye Round Steak And Beef meatball - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Located in White Center and has a parking lot. No frills Vietnamese restaurant that has various pho options, vermicelli bowls, and rice plates. I like how they serve hot tea when you dine in. They come take your order at your table and then you pay at the counter when you are finished with your meal. The service is minimal and you'll need to flag someone down if you need something. Ordered the combination beef pho that comes with all the meats. The pho broth tasted good. The pho wasn't packed with meat and didn't contain much rare steak and tripe. The large bowl seemed a bit small compared to other pho restaurants. I've heard their spring rolls and egg rolls are good, so would like to try the rolls in the future. read more

Pho 99 - Combination beef pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Great pho broth here! Personally I love soft tendon, and here, it's more on the firm /chewy side. I wished their broth was hotter and that the noodles were softer initially. Overall I was happy with my #10 small pho read more

Large portions & they have something that most other pho restaurants don't have : A dish called Bón Bò Hué ( Spicy tripe soup) which my partner loves. read more

This place is a hit or miss. The prices are higher for the area and I feel like eating at the restaurant is better than takeout. I order take out and the portion seemed so small even though I ordered a large. It was also not as flavorful compared to when I ate at the restaurant so I had to add some msg. read more

The Pho sucked, the noodles were stuck together, barely any meat, veggies and spices were all sub-par and it was expensive. Off family will never go there again. read more

Went here for dinner with my family and was really disappointed. The service wasn't great, and when it came time to pay, the server automatically added a tip without even asking. On top of that, the food wasn't good -- I ordered a brisket pho, and it had no flavor at all. I usually don't mind tipping, but it should reflect the service and food quality, and in this case, neither was worth it. Overall, not a good experience. I don't recommend going. read more

My fiance and I have been coming here regularly for a while now. When you first walk in you get to choose where you sit and its a very open restaurant with a lot of seating. The service here is super quick and we have gotten to the point that when we come in they already know what we are both going to order. We both get the number 4 everytime which is the Pho Chin Nam, It is consistent everytime we get it and is super delicious. Also ask for their springrolls and their bread it pairs super well with the pho! read more

Pho 99 - This is the number 4 from their menu. - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Well it's definitely not "location location location" as asphyxiating grit and noise of Hiway 99 is steps from the door. Step inside and it is reasonably clean, with friendly staff. We got an order of spring roll that were standard issue, neither mind blowing nor bad. The veggie pho had enough veggies to live up to its name. The fried onions were a nice touch. The broth was bland, and there were not enough noodles. For $15 a bowl, I probably won't come back. Veggie pho is as elusive as the sasquatch. Know there is a $2.00 card fee (technically illegal I think). read more

I've came to this restaurant countless times for years and no matter how long I haven't been there, they take one look at me and already knows what I want to order, even asks to make sure if it's what I want including size. Once sat down, given tea & water I usually always wait between 2-7 minutes for my order, before the food rating service was at "Needs Improvement" now it's at "Okay" but personally with my food being cooked and brought to me that fast it's perfect! It fills a hole in my stomach to where I usually eat a couple of GOOD pizza slices to fill it. The experience there is just like any other regular restaurant, chill, relaxing, nostalgic / lofi music in the background. You'd obviously wanna come back another time to experience it again, a taste of home Pho. read more

My go-to restaurant to go for pho! My dad and I are constant regulars, and the staff know our names and orders. So delicious, especially with the coconut water or thai iced tea. Everytime I feel sick or down, the pho here always lifts me up! My go to order: Number one pho, Thai iced tea, and egg rolls. The meat is perfectly sliced and tender, and the broth is always top-notch. I will always recommend this place to friends! read more

5 star experience!!!! I see people saying the broth is bland but I promise it isn't lol. For 1 they serve you complimentary tea and water as soon as you sit down and there aren't a lot of pho places that do that anymore. LOVED THAT!!! The food also came out fast and service was excellent! The portions are so big for such a good price. Spring rolls are $5 for 2 pieces, everywhere else is charging $10-$15 for spring rolls. AND the large pho bowls are only $15. Taste/Portion/Atmosphere/service was all 10 out of 10 I don't care what anyone says and this was my first time trying this spot, consider me a regular now lol. read more

APIHM (Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month) #1: I feel like another update is necessary for the amount of times I go here. I haven't dined-in in a while but doing take out doesn't change their consistency at all. Their food is packaged so neatly and compacted so that nothing spills which I really appreciate being the one who does the pick up. The food is also still warm and there is never anything missing. They included napkins, utensils and they don't skimp out on food at all! I appreciate the consistent friendly service from the workers whether you dine-in or take out. Thank you, Pho 99, for being such a great business! read more

Was jonesing for a nice bowl of Phonon a textbook rainy Seattle day and happen to walk into this place...

Pho 99 - Egg Noodle With Wonton And Veggie - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This place was recommended to me by another White Center local. I stopped in for lunch. It was pretty busy, but I was helped pretty quickly. I sat down, browsed the menu, picked out the standard beef pho. I ordered the small and it was pretty big! No problem there! My problem was that I over added chili oil to my pho, so I really couldn't taste it. In fact, I could barely eat it! I know, shame on me. I know the rule, start out with little, you can always add more. With that said, I will be back to try it again. Only next time, I will NOT be adding so much chili! read more

Their teriyaki chicken is bomb! Any time I get an hour lunch from TMobile down the street, I go here.

Terrible! They overcharged us and just assumed we wanted to give a 15% tip and refused to let me choose the tip. The pho broth didn't taste good, almost flavorless I had to add a bunch of siracha. Bad service I wouldn't recommend. They were very rude read more

Best pho I've had in Seattle. Broth is very mild on the aromatics and heavy on the delicious beefiness. It has become our go-to in very short order. read more

The pho was flavorful and everyone finished their bowl. I'm from the Ca Bay Area, so I'm use to having big bowls of pho. The large bowl of pho was on the smaller side. I was looking for a combo that had a variety of beef including tendon and tripe, but I only saw combos that included one or the other. You can also build your own bowl. My husband ordered the bbq pork/egg roll vermicelli bowl, and it was yummy. This place had a parking lot, so that was nice. :) read more

Super dingy looking hole in the wall Vietnamese restaurant that serves up some super delicious pho. While the restaurant itself and the neighborhood isn't really a place you'd like to stay and hang out in, the food is authentic and the broth is super flavorful! Choosing between a small and large bowl of pho is a matter of around 50-75 cents so if you can scarf down the extra noodles and broth it's definitely worth the upgrade. The broth is fatty, flavorful, and is full of meat. The one I ordered was Pho number 10 with steak, flank, and soft tendon. I also order "egg rolls" which were hot and served with fish sauce. I was disappointed that they didn't serve them with lettuce, and shredded carrots like some restaurants do. I also got a shaved coconut milk and jelly pudding which I don't recommend. It just wasn't that good and had so many beans and bland pieces of jelly. Come here for a big bowl of pho - skip the other things. read more

OVERALL: 4/10 (Yelp Converted Score: 2/5). We came here to get takeout on December 12, 2020. There was nobody else in the store, and one other car in the parking area in front. We ordered a large pho combo dish, and the three-roll appetizer (spring roll, shrimp roll, veggie roll?). We mentioned the peanut allergy multiple times during the ordering process. 1) VARIETY/SELECTION: 7/10. Vermicelli (mostly peanuts-based), appetizers (peanut sauce, beware), drinks, rice plates, Vietnamese options. Pretty standard Vietnamese fare (I noticed they had Bun Bo Hue, which I think(?) is authentic?). 2) FRESHNESS: 5/10. Not the best freshness - the noodles were definitely not fresh, the meat was "meh" fresh, but the ingredients in the rolls were at best "okay". 3) VALUE FOR MONEY: 3/10. All in all, this was more expensive than other Vietnamese places I've had, and they didn't provide that much meat in the combo pho bowl that we ordered. The portion sizes were not big; the appetizer rolls were split by two people, but for the price we expected more. The large pho combo bowl was barely split by two people, and there was exactly one meatball, one slice of brisket, two or three pieces of tripe, and some assorted small pieces of meat that I wasn't very thrilled about. 4) SERVICE: 3/10. Usually, when someone gives me free drinks (thinking our order is something different), I would rate this higher. We were the *only* people waiting for our to-go order, and yet they still made a mistake and gave us drinks we didn't order / want? 5) CONSISTENCY / FIRST IMPRESSION: 2/10. My partner mentioned my peanut allergy, yet we still got a sauce with our appetizer roll combo that clearly had peanuts in it (partner taste test confirmed - we threw it out). After discovering the peanut-laced sauce with the appetizer, we called them to mention that we had asked for *NO PEANUTS*, but their command of English didn't seem to understand that we were SPECIFICALLY asking if anything else had peanuts in it (to throw those away). They confused our question with an order and asked when we'd be picking it up; it took a few more attempts, but we finally got confirmation that we were safe other than that peanut-laden sauce. read more

First time being here and I got to say, the parking is lowkey ass lol. But I'm not complaining as much because I found parking but it was hard at first and the road is bumpy with potholes but other then that, the food was good lol. I got the steak and meatball which was funny because my pho didn't have meatballs in it, it came as a side and I only got one meatball cut in half. But I still ate it I guess. The broth isn't too thick nor thin, I think it sits just right and the noodles were good and soft to my texture opinion. Service was fast and nice, I left a tip of course. I also got Thai tea and I loved that as well because some places would have like milk sitting in it but here, they didn't have milk sitting or in it I think. It was more creamy and sweet which I like. Will I come back? Of course when I get the chance lol. read more

Our favorite Pho place in seattle. The food is always amazing, fast service and great staff. The portions are amazing and the quality is top notch. We come here often and will drive past 10 other Pho restaurants just to come here. read more

I think this pho shop has some of the best spring roll and eggs rolls. They are fresh made to order every time. I like the spring rolls with the grilled minced pork rolls with peanut sauce and the fried egg rolls. They seem to use a thinner egg roll skin for the fried rolls so they turn out very light and crispy. The pho is always delicious and hits the spot. Their Vietnamese iced coffee is very strong but very refreshing. read more

Before placing an order over the phone, I called to compare the size & prices on a bowl of pho, but the employee couldn't even give me an accurate amount.

OMG OMG!! This is why Seattle is great! Authentic and affordable Vietnamese food! When we first came, the restaurant was full of Asian families, my people! A very good sign of community approval. The menu was extensive, and a bit overwhelming. But I think we got the best among them all. Pho (with beef tripe and brisket), Grilled Pork Chop over Rice, and Fried Spring Roll. The Pho was aromatic, filling, and delicious. The pork chop was juicy, flavorful, and yummy. Both dishes were huge and accompanied by side dishes. My only complaint would be the fish sauce for spring roll.....not my thing yucks read more

My family and I have been going here for years and when I mean years I mean years. When they were more lowkey they were the best pho spot in Seattle according to my viet family. Once they got more traction the quality has definitely changed and the broth isn't as rich as it was before. It's still a really good pho place just wish the quality would come back. read more

OMG. I thought this is the same Pho 99 from Shoreline that I used to eat whenever I was in Seattle. This is not, not even close. It's the worst pho I have ever tasted. Being from Socal, not too far from Little Saigon, I have tried so many places, good and bad, but, I have to say this is the worst one. Pho broth is just bland. Noodle is over cooked. My husband and I, we couldn't even finish 1/3 of the bowl although we were hungry after 6.5 hours flight from Florida. Egg rolls are OK and so are spring rolls. Never go back to this location again. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would highway robbery this place, I was overcharged 104.00 and when asked for itemized receipt they said they didn't have any and we calculated by hand and discovered how overcharged we were. Be careful with this place make sure you check your receipt. Took over 30 mins for them to admit they overcharged me. Food was blah. read more

Sorry I can't give the pho a better review. I ate pho there and the broth was just so-so. Most pho broths that I am used to have a flavorful bouquet. Lots of tastes and smells and very nuanced. This broth tasted flat. There was nothing interesting about it. It was almost like I was eating some sort of bland store-bought broth. Unfortunately, I probably won't be back. I know that this restaurant got a lot of good reviews and maybe other people feel differently. Just my two cents worth. read more

The food was decent but I wouldn't recommend coming here. A cockroach was literally on my dining table and ran across the table. It didn't seem like anyone took it seriously. this is the first time something like this has ever happened to me. i would've loved to support a small business but i cannot support one that is probably unsafe. unless they address this issue, i don't recommend coming here. read more

This is one of the best and I'm so glad I don't have to drive to the International District for great Vietnamese food. I have to try 3 of the dishes and already have eaten the vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and it was great. Got me some iced coffee and just really enjoyed a great lunch. There's something about Vietnamese food that makes me feel it's healthy. So much better than putting down a burger and fries. I want to try the Pho and the rice dish with the fried egg on it. I'll be back. read more
