    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!

    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!

    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.

    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..

    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!

    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!!

    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.

I ordered the shrimp pho and was pleasantly surprised. The broth was light but still packed with flavor. It didn't feel heavy, but it still hit the spot. They were generous with the shrimp. They were a good size and there were plenty of them. I left full and satisfied. The space itself is cute and tucked into a tiny strip mall, nothing over the top but still a nice vibe for a casual meal. Service was excellent. The staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The only downside was that they were out of quite a few items. The staff mentioned it was because we came on the later side of the early evening (around 4 pm), which felt a little early to be running low, but not a dealbreaker. Overall, a solid find and I'll return the next time I'm in town.

The broth and great flavor and it was full of meat. The vermicelli bowl pork was extravagant and flavorful. The food was so good I forgot to take pictures before hand. I will be back

Once I got settled in, I looked at Yelp for a recommendation to eat. I was near so many great places to dine but Pho Michael won, despite the negative reviews. I was greeted warmly when I entered and allowed to pick where I sat. The feel inside was interesting, as Michael Jackson was playing but the decor reminded me of an Asian restaurant. It was clean though. I ordered a sweet tea which they add a sweetener when you order it. I won't get this again. I ordered the spring rolls with shrimp, which many reviews called them small. These rolls were so big they could almost serve as an entree. They tasted so fresh and the peanut sauce accompanied them well. For my main dish, I ordered the pho with filet mignon. It's one of their popular dishes so I figured it would be okay. When they placed a steaming hot bowl of pho in front of me, I knew I had a made a solid decision. I added a tad of hoisin sauce along with the sprouts, basil and jalapeños. The beef broth was sooooooo good as well. Only regret I had was a smaller portion wasn't offered. I ordered the smallest size available but it was so much. I tried to eat it all but couldn't lol. Service was top notch, as my server and another gentleman checked on me but didn't hover. This is a place I would visit again no matter where in New Orleans I stay.

The restaurant sets off cute date or special event night vibes with its trendy, inviting atmosphere. I love how the bar and main dining area are separated- you can either dine at the tables or go next door to hang out for drinks. We stopped by for a late lunch and were greeted warmly by our sweet waitress Mikayla. She was very helpful and patient with any questions we had with items on the menu. Service was stellar A+++ !!! Now onto the incredible FOOD: Bo Ne - filet mignon steak cubes & eggs (10/10): When an entree comes out sizzling & the aroma wakes you up- you know it has to be AMAZINGLY FLAVORFUL & FANTASTIC! Spread the butter & pate on the toasted bread, then use it to soak up all the INCREDIBLE flavor explosion from the sizzling steak & eggs!!! *VOILA chef's kiss* (side note: I grew up in Houston & had Bo Ne fairly regularly & I honestly think Ba Chi elevates this dish to another realm!!!) Curry clams & fries (10/10): I was worried I wouldn't like it because I wanted mussels, which were unavailable. To my surprise, this dish was another great hit !!! The yellow curry flavors were unique - a bit of heat & spice but not overwhelming. Next time, I would ask for the fries to be served on the side so that they stay crispy! We really wanted to slurp down a gallon of the curry- it really was THAT good! Pro tip: get a side of vermicelli noodles (or rice), mix it with the leftover curry & proceed to gobble it all up if you have room left in your tummy! Spicy lemongrass chicken wings (8/10): These were good-sized wings that packed a little punch with the spice! We enjoyed the spicy lemongrass flavor of the crispy wings (be aware that not everyone has a palate for lemongrass- they have other flavors available for those less adventurous eaters). DRINK: Dragon Slay-Her: what a gorgeous & beautiful drink - the dragon fruit margarita was a specialty cocktail I've never had before and I LOVED IT !!! (10/10) Their espresso martini with ube foam is another popular cocktail & I look forward to trying it on my next visit! TL; DR: If you're wanting to FIRE UP and add some PIZAZZ & all that jazz to your fabulous foodie life, then make lunch/dinner/drink plans for Ba Chi! You'll have the best dining experience there with quality food and top notch service! We LOVEDDD & enjoyed our dining experience today!
