    Mango Bubble Tea
    Taquera W.

    Now New Orleans is all about seafood, but we were all about these Mango Slush from Pho Bang! We walked here almost daily while visiting our friends for a week and it was addicting. Very sweet and delicious mango flavor , if you're looking for a nice treat, you will find amazing ones here!

    Large Beef Pho

    During the strange COVID-19 times it was nice to try out a new restaurant. This is the former location of the Alpine Clocks and Jewelers that I used to love to visit to see their great knife selection so I was very sad to see that place leave (they still have a location on the North Shore) but I was glad to see a Vietnamese place open here. Most of my Vietnamese restaurants seemed to be either closed or carry out only during the pandemic times so I was quite pleased to find Pho Bang was offering normal inside sit down dining at this location. Pho Bang is a chain with several locations in the area and I have eaten at one other Pho Bang years ago in the area which I still have that Yelp review for and to summarize it wasn't a good experience back then. This experience was completely different as everything went fantastic and the food was cooked perfectly. They even asked if I wanted anymore vegetables with my pho which is a very rare thing to happen. Their pho veggie mix was a bit smaller than some other places I like but I really appreciate that they asked if I wanted more. My brisket and eye of round pho was delicious and much needed as it was the first pho I had eaten during the entirety of this pandemic. Before all this madness happened I was eating pho at least twice a week so pho had definitely been missed in my life. The service was great and they kept my iced jasmine tea full and were very efficient and professional in ensuring I had all that I needed. Overall this was a great experience and I'm glad to see they have greatly improved from my previous experience years ago with this chain. In these strange times it was also fantastic to get a good bowl of pho. As so many things continue to be closed I'm sure I will be back here sooner than later.

    Pho Phở Tái Chín Nạm Gân Sách (Large Only) substituted the Tripe for Meatballs!

    Let's just say, they did not disappoint! Their broth is super flavorful even with out putting any condiments in. Staff was super nice and patient because I took a while trying to decide on what meats I wanted. You can basically substitute what meats you want. 10/10 Restaurant was also super clean and quiet!

    One of the best places that you can find in Metairie. The broth is delicious and always fresh added ingredients. My favorite is the fatty brisket with broccoli and carrots. So delicious and soothing to my belly. When I am doing Low Carb, I ask them to hold the noodles and it is still delicious. My daughter works close by there and it has become one of my favorite lunch places when I want that soothing comfort food. The servers are courteous and are consistently making sure that you are ok and whether or not you need anything.

    The Pho was really and spicy! I'm talking will clean you out lol And the steak and rice was really good along with some soy sauce.. would definitely get that again. The server was okay.. she thought we didn't understand some of the things she was saying but once she realized we did. Everything was good..

    Typical Pho restaurant... definitely no BANG but good. Pho was hot but broth lacked flavor. Would I return definitely not but give Pho Bang a try and see for yourself fellow Yelpers. So let it written... So let it be EATEN!!

    Chicken Pho Soup with Pho Boiled Shrimp
    Omotore E.

    Did a to go order for lunch and just got the chicken pho but really wanted shrimp. They were nice about adding shrimp to the side. All of the additions were so great. I loved they the broth was not pork or beef based. Will go back here again. The service was pleasant.

    Lemongrass Beef Vermicelli Noodles
    Julia V.

    Authentic Vietnamese food in a homey setting conveniently located on Vets in Metairie. My favorite is definitely the Bun Bo Hue beef soup--I could take that broth in a to-go cup and drink it anywhere!

    It's always a pleasure dining at pho bang. This place is special to me....The pho is always good. The service is also well. Sometimes they play music while ur eating which is always a plus. The staff stocks all of the condiments for the tables at the end of the night so there is never a worry there. My only issue was I do wish I received more boba considering it was 6+ dollars but besides that I've been dining here for over a year now and I really like it.

    Vietnamese Coffee with Condensed Milk and Ice + Bun Cha Gio + Banh Mi Thit Nuong
    Mari D.

    Haven't had a bad meal here. The service is quick so I would definitely dine in if you get the chance. The dining area is quite spacious so we've never had to wait for a table. Even during peak dining hours. The pho is some of the best I've ever had in New Orleans! The shaking beef was also very tasty and I love that it's served with beef broth on the side. Don't forget the Vietnamese coffee! :') There's a good amount of parking around the restaurant.

The staff were so friendly and helpful even though we left a bit of a mess with the baby deciding to throw her food around after her belly was full. I apologize for the mess and thank you for taking care of us!!! I noticed the staff worked together as a team to take care of its patrons. We ordered the banh xeo- it was very crispy and full of fillings (bean sprouts, onions, pork, shrimp). The banh xeo itself had a noticeable sweet coconut taste which complemented the savory filings. The bun bo hue had a good spicy lemongrass flavor and the meats were tender and juicy. The lemongrass tofu vermicelli was also good! Meal portions were generous and we enjoyed all the food. Nudo is definitely worthy to be added to your list of lunch/dinner rotations. We had a great dining experience there and hope you do too!

The broth flavor was very good, the tofu were large chunks and the noodles plentiful. Overall what was given was good in terms of size and flavor. The negatives were that 1) there were no veggies - in some of the other Pho that i get from other places they offer carrots or other veggies as well as tofu 2) the price was a bit high. while the quantity was plentiful and the flavor good for everything i received, was it worth the price?

I've tried so many different ones in Texas but very few are even close to the quality and TLC made at Chez Pierre. I can't get enough of the buttery, flaky, golden goodness with each savory bite of pure deliciousness! I pre-order them by the dozen to share with visiting family and friends. Everyone who has tried the pate chaud absolutely LOVESSSS them!!! Take one bite and you'll be hooked for life! And while since you're already here, be sure to grab some deliciously potent Vietnamese iced coffee (cafe sua da) to energize your day. Their Vietnamese sandwiches are legit as well for a quick meal on the go. Have a sweet tooth? Their display is full of the most beautifully crafted and yummy pastries/sweets/etc - pick your guilty pleasure! I like to order their cakes for special occasions. Crowd faves are the fruit chantilly cake or the pandan cake- the cakes are light, airy, and not overly sweet. The Chez Pierre staff are always welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable about all their menu items. I've only had positive experiences and I know you will love them too! This is your reminder to hurry over for the pate chaud- I promise you will thank me later :)

The ice cream and then the gummy's at the very bottom. It was like eating gummy bears or gummy worms with a dessert drink. Every mouthful was chewy and flavorful. To be noted, there are non-dairy options as well. Don't get scared. So many items to choose from, dessert drinks & banh-mi sandwiches, mango this, kidney beans that... with so many items on the menu that just means I have to return and try more of the concoctions. Shared parking lot. But it doesn't look like most people come and stay alone while. Although there are tables inside where you can sit and maybe do some computer work or read a book the average Joe picks up their drink and goes their way.

It was during lunch time and it wasn't too busy (but it should be!). The restaurant was super clean and tidy as well. Our server was super friendly, polite, and made sure we were taken care of. We ordered some entrees and everyone loved their food! My husband had the phat peaux pho (beef ribs, brisket, rare flank, and beef balls) and he added bone marrow to it for an extra $5. I had the Korean short rib vermicelli bowl while my brother and SIL had chicken spring rolls and the rice pork fecta. My sister had the bulgogi baco and the pho combo (beef balls, brisket, rare eye round). All the pho came with a side of fresh bean sprouts, onions, jalapenos, cilantro, lime, and basil. I tried some of my husband's pho and the best way to judge pho is by the taste of the broth without all the add-ins. The broth was full of umami flavor and with each sip, the flavor became even more prominent. You can absolutely tell they put a lot of love into the broth and that it was simmered for hours to develop such complex flavors. I could have literally drank the broth on its own without hoisin or siracha sauces added to it. The meat was also super tender and I had a bite of the beef ribs and it was so tender that it fell off the bone! The portion sizes were HUGE!!! My husband finished every bit of his pho. My Korean short rib vermicelli bowl was also very huge and they give you ALOT of short ribs for the price. The only criticism I had was that the meat was a tiny bit dry but the flavor was smokey and delicious! The noodles were cooked perfectly and I enjoyed the pickled and fresh veggies that came with it! There were also peanuts as toppings and you get a side of the nuoc mam (fish sauce) to go along with your bowl. I enjoyed how fresh the bowl was and it left me feeling full, but not greasy. My family all loved their appetizers and entrees and there were no complaints. I definitely want to come back to try other dishes and their desserts. I absolutely think the price is worth it for the amount of food you get. I had to get a togo box and it was enough for another meal at home!
