    I found out about this place from the yelp event "Flora and Fables" just recently. The pho is soooooo nice here!!! The broth has such a nice flavor and the fresh flat noodles are amazing! The place is decent looking and they have a pretty good menu. The service is very good. The staff are friendly and attentive. It is a casual restaurant that is pretty well lit. The kitchen looks extremely small but they do well with the food. The only thing that was not good was the popcorn chicken that my daughter got. I think it may have been because we got there at like 8:25 pm and they close at 9 pm so the chicken may have been sitting for a while (bottom of the barrel). It was really dry and hard around (the outer part). My daughter eats chicken almost any way. Like she eats just about every kind of chicken so I was shocked that she didn't like it. That's why we tried it too but she was right. It was very rubbery and hard to eat. It is possible that it was just due to how late we were ordering. Our server Marie was very nice about it though. She was extremely kind and helpful the whole time. I hate complaining about food especially because I know it's not done purposely. I just had to get my daughter separate food after since their kitchen was closed by the time I found out it wasn't good. The checks come as a receipt with a QR code which is SUPER COOL and efficient. It was so easy to pay. Overall, I recommend and I'd go back!

    First time at this place. Service was fast. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Therefore Stacy and not that salty. Their pork chop was tender enough, and spiced well. Place is clean and pretty well organized. Will recommend to come back this place again.

    Pho Bar is located in the Mills area. This restaurant is still considered new since it's only been around a few years. The interior is clean, modern, and has a beautiful mural to add to the vibe. I have eaten here at least a dozen times since they opened. The highlight is that the fresh handmade pho noodles are the best I've had so far. The broth is flavorful and robust. I usually order the special rib bone Pho which comes with a sizable hunk of meat that falls off the bone. I also enjoyed the Banh Beo appetizer which is a traditional and popular Vietnamese dish of small, steamed rice cakes with dried shrimp and oil infused scallions topping, accompanied by with a dipping sauce of sweet and spicy fish sauce. Their drinks are hit or miss. The service and friendliness of the staff is always consistent. That alone is a good reason to come back. What I have noticed the last few times is the quality has gone done a bit. Usually when I order my $24 bowl of rib bone pho, it feels elevated. However the last time I went there I got it in a small bowl, which is typically in a XL bowl, and everything seemed to be scaled down for the same price point. The flavor was a little off, but still flavorful. Mind you, I don't mind paying for quality pho even if it's overinflated. However, I have been to a few hole in the wall pho restaurants with less bells and whistles with the same quality. Although the past few meals there have been underwhelming, I still love the hand pulled Pho noodles here. I will give it another chance simply because it's always a treat to go to a place where I actually crave their noodles and can overlook the other discrepancies! There's a small parking lot and street parking available.

    I think it's fair to say that Pho Bar is the best pho restaurant in Orlando considering the 3 Yelp review elements: food, service, and ambiance. My bowl of flank and brisket pho was generous (a huge bowl though "regular size") and flavorful (thanks to the combination of the meats and the broth). The noodles hit the spot -- I'm glad I followed the server's recommendation and went for the house flat noodles. Our sever came to our table several times and our bowls arrived in what it felt like 5 minutes. So fast. The restaurant seemed very clean. Perfect amount of lighting for a pho restaurant and I liked the modern, Asian themed painting on the wall.

    Amazing brisket pho and great fish and honey garlic wings. I got the handmade noodles which were great if you eat your whole bowl there, but not great if you have heated leftovers. The house noodles broke down and I even separated they'll from the broth. It made it hard to eat the next day so I would have gotten the regular noodles, like the remaining party. We were introduced to them at a Yelp Elite event and fell in love. The large pho can feed 2 people.

    Susan C.

    Wow!!! Such a great spot. What the Pho, you will be amazed at the great pho and wonderful selection. The house pho special is so tasty, deep flavors, fresh veggies/herbs and plenty of fixings. The eye round & brisket pho was amazing. We also got the spring rolls- which were fresh and flavorful. This is a must try spot for Vietnamese food!

    SHORT RIB PHO
    Anthony P.

    I've been here about 10 times now and can't believe I never left a review. This has easily been my favorite pho spot in the area for the past year. There's a small parking lot in the back, but it's usually not hard to find a spot. The interior is modern, clean, and really nice, with a decent amount of seating. They do only have one bathroom though, so it can get a bit of a line during busy times. Now for the pho. The broth is seasoned perfectly and has that rich, hearty depth you want. You can tell they use just the right amount of bones and meat to give it real body. It's seasoned to my liking. Not too sweet and lets the stock speak for itself. I almost always order the combination pho, and my wife usually gets the short rib. You truly can't go wrong with either, and the meat portions are always generous. Recently I decided to change things up and tried bún bò Huế for the first time, and it was awesome. Spicy, savory, slightly lemony and tangy from the lemongrass, and super rich. If you're feeling adventurous and want something different from standard pho, this is a great option. The rice noodles have a different texture, and it comes with pork trotters and congealed pig blood. If you love tendons in your pho, you'll probably love the trotters -- and honestly, the blood reminded me a lot of bone marrow. We used to order their Thai tea a lot when they first opened, but the last few visits it's been pretty watery. We even tried ordering it with the milk on the side and could definitely tell the brew had changed. We let the staff know a few weeks prior and it seems to have gotten a bit better but not as good as when they first opened. It's been kinda watery the last three times we've gone, so we'll probably just walk to mills market down the street for Thai tea but this review is 100% about the food, not the drinks. Overall, this place is a gem and still my go-to pho spot. Highly recommend.

    Steamed Rice Cake (Banh Beo)
    Jonathan N.

    1st of, I was pleasantly surprised for the expectations of the foods, for having Pho Vinh as the ONLY go-to eat for Vietnamese food. The ambiance is clean, bright, modern, and comfortable. The menu was simple, once I familiarized myself to their menu. The chicken wings were very light battered, and flavored just right for tastes. The fried egg rolls, good, and recommended. However, not so on the Spring Rolls (Summer Rolls really), 2 much noodles to justified the prices, won't order future visits. Now, the Steamed Rice Cake (Banh Beo), W-O-W!!! We 2X that order up!!! Main dishes, Curry Chicken with Bread was great, recommend it!! The Pho dishes, yes, clean broth, light in flavors (And didn't get tummy aches after), just absolutely LOVE the "Homemade) noodles!!! Service, quite attentive & hospitable, thanks! Suggestion, trust your customers with the tip/gratituity, if well earned, in this case. It was a turned off when there 5 people (I usually leave the usual 25% - 30%), and I wasn't giving the option from the start. Server left himself short. 2-Star short of 5-Star, why?? The restrooms with NO paper towels at all, and not as cleaned as can be, at 12:40PM? Especially, when there were 4 people standing around conversing?! Suggestion to the management, "Inspect what your patrons expect, and, expect what you're patrons inspect." It's simple, really.

    Pho
    Marina C.

    Solid pho. This and Pho Huong Lan are my go-to pho spots. However, Pho Bar offers a more elevated ambiance - nicer seating, newer restaurant, more attentive service, a bar, etc. Of course, the price point is also higher here, too. They also have great honey garlic wings and mussels served on a sizzling plate. 4 stars only because I don't like the kind of noodles they use. The noodles are handmade, but they have an innate soggy feel that I just don't like with pho. Just preference.

    Allen L.

    I'm generally suspicious of modernized pho houses, but the food hits the spot for any pho cravings. Pho Vinh has been a reliable go-to, so it's great to find another pho spot that delivers great Vietnamese cuisine. You have a variety of noodle types to choose from. Their default seems to be the flatter, wide noodles (northern Vietnamese noodles). I tend to get the house combination and I just love the pho that they served here. My only critique is they price it on the higher side. Other than that, don't skip a visit to Pho Bar!

    RARE EYE ROUND & BRISKET PHO l Pho Tai Gau
    Guillana Socorro F.

    Absolutely my favorite pho restaurant in Orlando. I come here probably x2-3 a month. The inside is so beautiful and clean. I love the aesthetic. The servers are really friendly and attentive. The pho tai gau is my go to. I love the thai tea here as well.

    Stopped by Pho Bar on a Sunday craving something warm and comforting, and it honestly hit the spot. The restaurant had that relaxed weekend energy -- busy enough to feel lively but still calm and easygoing. Service moved quickly, and we were greeted right away, which set a nice tone for the rest of the visit. I ordered my usual bowl of pho, and what keeps me coming back is how consistent the broth is every single time. It's rich but clean, flavorful without being overpowering, and you can tell it's been simmered with care. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the toppings were fresh and generous. Side note- green mussels and steamed rice cake Even though Sundays can get a little hectic, the staff stayed friendly and attentive, making sure everything flowed smoothly. It felt like one of those simple, comforting meals that just resets your week in a good way. Overall, a solid Sunday stop for a dependable bowl of pho -- nothing overly fancy, just consistently good flavors and a welcoming atmosphere

    Started going here since they first opened a year+ ago, and it's been perfect each and every time. We've eaten nearly everything on the menu and each dish, from pho to bun to rice has been so yummy!! Today, we tried one of their newest dish - bún đậu mắm tôm! Highly recommend!!!! See pic for the beautiful presentation and taste! As usual we always get banh beo and rocket shrimp because my kids love them too. Service is so friendly. The servers were quick!! Overall, 5 stars from me!

There's a giant ice cube and a bamboo leaf or something and very little drink to drink. Not sure what to make of this because as soon as I was deciding if I liked it or not, it was gone. Wouldn't order this again. Second, I tried a $17 Adam & Eve. I wish the matcha was much stronger. There's a place in Tampa called Tori Bar that has a super duper matcha tasting cocktail. This one was much lighter. It was fine, not my favorite. Maybe I'd bring a date here sometime, but wouldn't go out of my way to come here.

Southern comfort food as a general rule just doesn't sit well with me anymore and I'm going to be very transparent and bare my soul a little bit here but here goes . . . Ever since being on GLP1's, I've developed a really complicated relationship with comfort food. Foods that are rich, buttery, creamy or fatty now hit me completely differently than they used to. It's almost like my body immediately goes into shutdown mode afterwards. I feel heavy, exhausted and like I've instantly ballooned even if the portions themselves aren't massive. For the longest time I honestly thought it was simply the richness of the food itself but now I realize it's because my digestion just can't process heavier comfort foods the same way anymore. Suddenly... it all makes sense. The food itself here is VERY good. Properly seasoned, well prepared, beautifully presented... absolutely no complaints there whatsoever. I simply have to become more mindful and strategic now with my menu selections no matter WHERE I dine. I chose the Creekstone Farm's NY Strip with the fabulous bone marrow which I KNOW is supposed to be incredibly nutrient rich and good for you... but honestly... it just about put me under afterwards. This dinner happened thanks to Ronnald M. and his sister Teris and it was our pre-opera dinner outing before seeing the fabulous Merry Widow at the Dr. Phillips Center. The Monroe is honestly a very good pre-concert restaurant choice because of both the atmosphere and location... I'm just personally learning that this new GLP1 reality means I can't approach menus the way I used to anymore.

The crème brûlée was so amazing! The chocolate espresso beans were 10/10. I ALMOST tipped them 50% of my bill! So as a server, thankfully I caught this. In the very back of their menu, it says an automatic 20% gratuity is applied to every check, which is kinda crazy to be honest. I was already going to tip him 30%. So it would have been 20% and 30% tip. So be very aware that they're already applying the tip to everyone's bill and it was just me, one person! I would definitely come back here but just keep in mind their kitchen isn't always open, parking can be hard to find at times, and the auto gratuity.

    I don't typically start off reviews with a shout out - but this experience stood out and is…read moredeserving of one. George, thank you so much for such a wonderful first experience here. From drinks to tapas, to a nice conversation about similarities - it was a perfect date night for us. My fiance ordered a couple of Old Fashions and myself some margaritas. It was Thursday which is all-day HH after 4pm. We shared the famous deviled eggs and potato croquettes. Food was delicious and drinks were strong. What started as "let's get a drink," to two-hours later. This establishment is the middle of relaxing to upscale. The demographics fit the scene. Everyone was pleasant and respectful. ** Make a reservation. We did for 6pm and it was quite packed for a Thursday. Parking is limited. We were lucky to find street parking with no parking hours. Thank you, George again. Little did you know that we celebrated a milestone tonight. I quit my corporate job of five-years and today was my first week at my dream job. You didn't know, but your exceptional service tonight felt like you did. We need more of you. We can't wait to dine in next! We hope you're our server again!
