This place is pretty good. Service was fast. Plenty of parking. The broth for the pho was good and clean but their fresh spring rolls were ok. Not my fave but they hot the spot. I would come here again for some pho for sure read more

Good service, comfy booths, good food. I appreciated being allowed to order the child size pho. I then justified an order of spring rolls and called it a meal read more

Went to Pho Basil for an early dinner. Very good food! We had Orange Chicken, Meatball Pho and a Banh Mi. All were very good and authentic tasting. The service was very good, friendly and fast! Lots of seating in a very either bench or table sitting is available. We very much enjoyed our dinner at Pho Basil. read more

I've dined in and ordered takeout from this place multiple times. The service has declined compared to last year, and even takeout has been disappointing. My recent Pho (Vegetarian Noodle Soup) came missing toppings, mung sprouts, and garnishes. Prices have gone up, and the broth tastes different every time. The seating is spacious with booths but no tables, making for a comfortable ambience. Sometimes the experience is decent, other times it's not. Consistency is definitely lacking for a place I used to enjoy. read more

We love basil! My 3.5 year old says "What if every day after school we go to Basil!". The food is consistently delicious! We are vegan and the staff are always helpful and knowledgeable/able to help us navigate the menu. Our favorite is the pho, tofu spring rolls and ban mi(with a few changes). They have quite a few options but we haven't really ventured out because we are really happy with those! The staff are so kind to kids too! Prices seem totally fair. Love basil! read more

I ordered hot and sour soup and it was neither hot nor sour. The soup lacked known vegetable ingredients and was tasteless. I also ordered pork fried rice and a small sized carton was not only expensive and had no barbecued pork BUT it had rubber SHRIMP, no green onions and some other meat which was unknown. I paid $32 and change which went into the garbage. I love hot and sour soup and pork fried rice and I got neither but paid a lot for crap! read more

If you enjoy a good bowl of Pho, this is the best spot in Arlington! Miss Nadia and Quan were great hosts and the food is just as good as their Everett location. read more

last couple of times the service and food were very good. I believe the quality of food is improving, is good. Would recommend this place. And will be coming back for more. For thoes of you that left a bad review go try Maxies out by the Costal store, you'll be wishing yiu were at Pho Basil. read more

We decided to try the sister company of Basil in Everett since we stop by there weekly. It was pretty close to the same food but not as good of quality. The inside of the restaurant is nice, but a little run down. The server was knowledgeable and recommended plenty of other options. We were close to ordering some of the Chinese food on there because honestly when is Chinese food not good? We didn't, we stayed on course with what we have at the Everett location. The pho was good, but slightly lacked a little flavor. They don't have all of the same hot sauces there either. But either way we finished it. The Bahn Mi we ordered was the bbq pork with extra meat. I can tell you they pile on the extra meat way more than the Everett location. It was delicious and flavorful...the one bad thing was that the last quarter of the sandwich was filled with gelatinous meat which turned me off and I could not finish it. I'm sure the Chinese food is good, which we will be back to try that aspect of it. As for the pho and bahn mi's I'll stick with the Everett location. I will add that anything is worth trying at these restaurants as the prices are more than reasonable. Service was good all in all. I am glad we stopped here and look forward to the next time. read more

There was a group of 7 of us that were seated immediately at a big table towards the back. It was perfect for us because there were 3 children under 9 in our party and they can get loud sometimes. We liked being out of the way. Our server was just the kindest sweetest most helpful lady, I really wish that I knew her name. She was so patient with us and helped us each to order the very best thing. She even let us try this crazy green smoothie thing that her child was drinking (they were waiting at the table across from us). The pho was really delicious and the banh mi were pretty good too. The place was pretty clean but definitely messy, that is why I took of one star. I like this place and will be back whenever I am visiting my family in the area. read more

Its a very busy place. Every time we go there are lots of people but the workers get you seated quickly. A lady worker is always so thoughtful and talks to us, greets my kids, & makes sure the noodles are not too hot for the kids ( she always offer ice to cool it down ) Always checking up and making sure everything is good. Pho delicious and well seasoned. They give good portion. Sometimes I can't even finish because it is too much. Banh Mi sandwich is perfectly made every time. & my all time favorite especially when I was pregnant and till this day is the grilled short ribs rice plate. VERY VERY VERY TASTEFUL. read more

everything is a 10/10 from the service to the flavors and freshness of the food. i've only been here once so far but I will be going way more often from now on. the crab ragoons and wings are delicious, trying different appetizers today! :) and of course the pho is amazing. this is the best comfort ever. read more

This is my #1 pho spot in Marysville! Everything I've had is on par with the best pho spots from California to Colorado! The broth is delicious and very clean. Love the banh mi and spring rolls. They also have Chinese food but I don't typically order it. My son and wife do order the general tso chicken and have never heard a complaint. My only complaint if the inconsistency with drinks, sometimes you get the fountain and sometimes it's buy the can/bottle. Personally I believe soda by the can/bottle is a huge scam, charge me $3 for what cost less than $1, if your going to go that route than sell 2 liters better value! As for the service it's always very friendly and accommodating. The servers have at times caught "issues " that I would have probably never thought twice about. The decor is nice definitely up to date, and is always very clean! read more

Legit service and legit food. Between two of us we had, hot and sour soup, pho, general tso meal with sweet and sour pork and crab ragoons. Everything was delicious Nice and clean place. read more

Service was great! I had a young man who was learning Spanish by my 5 year old, we was very sweet and patient with my kids The food was delicious Store was clean and plenty of parking For sure coming back with the whole family. #4 with extra brisket no raw meat Sweet and sour chicken Goyza with sweet and sour and hot tea read more

Pretty pleased. Really good spot for the area. Worth a try. Please take the Chinese food off the menu. It looked mediocre, and isn't enhancing the menu or experience. Other than this, seemed clean and over all good spot to dine. Staff seemed to rush us out. read more

Found it out of fluke as we were crossing the border from Canada. It was rainy day and it was one of those days that only a piping hot bowl pho that would satisfy your soul. The service was quick, our waitress was warm and attentive. We had a pho bowl, vermicelli bowl, and the most delicious fried spring rolls! Highly recommended! read more

"I've eaten a lot of phở in my life, but this place absolutely nailed it. The broth was rich and aromatic, with that perfect hint of star anise. The beef was tender, and the noodles had the perfect bite. What made it even better? Super fresh herbs and bean sprouts, plus their chili sauce had a real kick. 10/10 would slurp again!" read more

First time coming in. The place was very well run and organized. The wait was worth the food. We had beef Bâhn Mi sandwiches. Very fresh, tasty and delicious. Bread was soft and crispy. The only complaint I have are the Chicken egg rolls. I paid 15 dollars for four egg rolls the size of Vienna sausages darn near. They were excellent, but not worth that much money. Service was professional. read more

I ordered the shrimp chow mein and my food was delivered. It was good. Not great. I think I am very picky when it comes to chow mein and fried rice. I'm used to the noodles being sticky and these noodles were pretty oily and usually fried rice has peas and carrots. BUT that's just my preference. I would love to try other items off their menu because they've received great reviews. I'm hoping that I can give them a 4 star in the future. read more

Pretty disappointed with the food here. Service was great and attentive, but the food was not up to the same standard. The pho was pretty in the middle for me not the best I've had. My expectations were a little high reading the reviews. The broth felt like it was missing something. The kung pao chicken was pretty bland with the sauce lacking flavor. The steamed rice was good as well as the egg roll. Unfortunately, I was dissatisfied with the dish as a whole and expected a stronger flavor especially since it was labeled as "spicy". Felt like a plate of hard vegetables rather than a spicy chicken dish. The small soup that came with the kung pao chicken meal was pretty good as well. A nice sweet flavor that contrasted with the other parts of the meal. The ambience is pretty nice inside and gives good vibes. read more

I gave the food four stars because it was really good. The waitress was wonderful until she disappeared after serving my meal. I waited about five minutes, and when she didn't return, I had to flag down a gentleman to ask for my bill. read more

This is a second location for Pho Basil from Everett. For years there was a Chinese restaurant in this location so it was nice to see a new Pho face in town. My first visit here was right after they had just opened for business. The space was a bit cold feeling but I think they were still figuring out the floor plan. The Pho was solid with more meat than expected, no complaints there. I was told they do use a little bit of MSG, for those of you that need to know. I was in and out thanks to the quick service. I'm very happy they are in my neighborhood, I will be back! read more

Friendly service, super fast, and great pho. Flavorful and rich. We had just arrived in the area and it was a great first meal out.

This place does not need my review, everyone in Everett and the surrounding communities already knows that this is the best pho in Everett (since Pho Ga closed two years ago). Short version, lots of parking, quick seating (unless they're swamped, then you might wait ten minutes). easy ordering, fast service, lots of your attentive servers, occasionally the owner walks through and checks on the tables. I ordered pho tai, fried egg rolls and Vietnamese coffee. Each was done right, the pho broth is excellent, there's lots of pieces of meat, and plenty of sauces and fixings. The coffee - everyone should be drinking Vietnamese iced coffee. Seriously, it's one of life's great pleasures. The egg rolls are a little small, but they make up for it in flavor. If you're brave, order the fish sauce instead of the sweet and sour sauce. read more

The food was ok for the price, I had the Pho and some crab rangoons. The broth could have had more flavor, might not be authentic bone broth. The "crab meat rangoons" could have had more meat since they took the time to emphasize it on the menu. The waiter I had was excellent and very attentive. The owner however was loitering around talking to the older couples in the restaurant about how hard it is to find good employees and saying how his current staff are lazy and it must be a generational thing. The vibe inside the restaurant was lacking, felt empty and boring. The owner put me off, I'll go somewhere else next time. read more

I live in California but come to visit my family in Washington. I came here on a lunch outing with my dad and children. When arrived we were greeted right away and sat down. Customer service was great. They were very attentive and at one point our waiter I'm assuming went on a break but the service did not stop they still checked on us and made sure everything was good. The pho was really good and my son ordered a lunch special, it was so good! My dad had took me to the restaurant prior to it becoming the pho place and I love that there is more lighting in there now it makes it looks so much better. I loved it and we will definitely be back next time we visit. read more

I got a large combo pho for my husband and I to share . We both had a few bites and we stopped because it was WAY salty. I love salt but even this was unbearable.. Talked a worker and he was very adamant about the pho and he argued with me about the saltiness and wanted a refund for the pho. The customer is always right, but they didn't get that .We weren't able to enjoy it because of that problem.. What a waste.. Good spring rolls though... read more

As a pho lover to say I was disappointed would be an understatement. I gave 2 stars because the service was quick. However, the basil leaves & cilantro were brown and wilted, the limes were definitely old, the broth didn't seem fresh and the broth is not like any broth I've had from pho before, was hoping for a new good spot since just moving to the area and unfortunately I now know where not to go. :( read more

Pho Basil - Picked up this Chicken Pho for take out. Some sort of bug in my soup. No Thanks. - Chinese Near Me - Arlington, Washington

I've been to the Everett location several times and LOVE it, so I was hoping this location would be similar! There were definitely similarities, but everything was a step down from the quality of the Everett location. Broth was good, but not great. Banh mi didn't have enough sauce on it. The Chinese food was pretty average. The ambience was a little stiff and cold. It wasn't bad overall, but just not what I was hoping for. Hoping they can make some changes to get to the same quality of the Everett location! read more

My favorite place for an easy dinner in Arlington. I'm addicted to the vermicelli bowls. Since they've revised the menu, everything is better. Love the skewers of meat on the vermicelli. *However* - the ambience is quite chilly. If they don't want to carpet the whole dining area, at least add strip carpeting down the central walkways to absorb a little sound and add a little softness. And turn up the heat or add a gas fireplace or something. Loud and cold don't make for a good dining experience. The wait staff are attentive and food is good, but this feels like a fast food joint instead of a restaurant. read more
