    I have been here twice when I was in Wilmington and the Pho is amazing. The restaurant is small but allows for an intimate dining experience, and the food came out super fast. The wait staff is also very attentive and it doesn't take long for you to get serviced. The prices were extremely reasonable and portion sizes were more than worth the price point. What I had this time and what's pictured is the beef brisket pho. Super tasty and hot and left me feeling full for a while. Absolutely recommend!

    WOW! Delicious pho bowls and flavorful sandwiches. Kind and speedy service. Enjoyed the tea and coffee as well.

    I think today is going to be my last visit here. I walked in and there was a long line (as usual) and nobody greeted me so a group of guys came in behind me and just sat down at a table after I had been waiting about 10 minutes. I asked if I was supposed to just sit and they said yes and then I did and they told me the table was reserved. I did get in a table at the back. The floor and bathrooms were absolutely filthy. I ordered the chicken pho and it had no flavor and was literally 75% noodles. The summer rolls were really good but the pho was terrible. Much better pho place up the road.

    Delicious vegan pho!

    5 stars for the vegan pho! I ordered the medium bowl for lunch, and it was huge. The broth is beautifully clear, yet still somehow has that amazing depth of flavor. Lots of beautiful carrots and broccoli and tofu, and a heap of noodles below. Super fresh basil, lime, jalapeño, and bean sprouts on the side to add in. Soupy perfection. I will be coming back regularly for this!

    We eat here every weekend. It's one of my favorite places. The pho is amazing and the staff are really friendly. It's a small place but we usually don't have an issue getting a table. The rare beef pho is my go to. The egg sandwich is also amazing.

    Small beef pho

    I haven't had pho in years and was excited a friend suggested this place. I'm surprised I've never been here since it's close to my work. The restaurant is small, low lit and super casual but it was packed on a Monday for lunch. We had a short wait for a table. But the moment one opened up it was cleaned and we were seated. Our waiter was friendly and we both got the rare beef pho. It came out fast and hot. It tasted like the pho I remembered and it was a lot for a small. I wish there was a bit more beef but I was full. I'd definitely come back here to try other items and get pho again!

    I love, love, love Vietnamese foods. Friends of ours took us to Pho Basil and I can say it's one of my favorite places. It's not a fancy place but a hole-in-the-wall type atmosphere. Service is slow, as we arrived and grabbed one of the last two available tables. We didn't mind waiting since we could see they were busy. Once our order was taken, the food came out soon afterwards. The tables are small so we had to have our waiter remove some of the extra items to give us more room to eat. I love Pho but I decided to try another favorite, Lemongrass pork with vermicelli noodles and vegetables. DH got the lemongrass pork with rice, topped off with a fried egg. His came with a cup of pho broth as a side. We also ordered the spring rolls. These were the ones that are served cold, rather than deep fried. The shrimp were sliced thin, so I really didn't taste them. Our friends ordered two types of Pho, one with chicken, the other with beef. My dish was so flavorful and filling. The pork was cut into small pieces; DH's was not cut all the way, making it a little difficult to eat. I guess he could have asked for a knife. I tasted the pho soup and said to myself I should have ordered the Pho! But I was very happy with my dish. Everyone else was quite satisfied. Prices are very reasonable. We'll be back!

    Spicy beef pho

    I loved the spicy beef pho. Service was timely, and the ambiance was homely. Very good Vietnamese food place in the Wilmington area.

    First time trying out their Pho

The Pad Thai was loaded with chicken and vegetables, with peanuts and lime on the side so you could finish it exactly how you like. The sizzling beef came out looking and smelling amazing, with big pieces of beef, peppers, onions, and mushrooms. And it was the star of the show The noodle soup was another standout. It came packed with meat, fresh herbs, jalapeños, sprouts, and all the extras on the side, including chili oil and sauces, so you could really customize the flavor and heat. And of course we had to finish with dessert. The dessert was beautifully presented with ice cream, cake, whipped cream, coconut, and an orchid on top. Definitely a nice way to end the meal. The atmosphere feels a little more upscale than your typical Thai/Vietnamese restaurant, but still comfortable and inviting. Everything was presented beautifully, portions were generous, and there was plenty of variety at the table. Overall, Café Chinois is definitely a place I'd come back to, especially when I'm in the mood for Asian food but want something a little different from the usual. Good food, beautiful presentation, and a fun fusion concept.

When I walked in, there was only one customer there and she was handling everything by herself. She was hostess and server. She handles it all with grace, confidence, and a smile. Kudos to Michaela and you're lucky to have her on your team!

    I stopped by pho 68 before my trip home for some take out. My first impressions on the restaurant…read moreis that it is very clean, well decorated, and the staff was super friendly. I was given a cup of iced water while waiting for take out which was appreciated. I was shown the newest menu they have which I've attached photos of; I purchased the bone marrow pho, a beef banh mi, a pork banh mi, and 2 vietnamese iced coffees. I'm not the biggest fan of pho, but I had to for this bone marrow dish! This is so hard to find I knew I couldn't pass it up. It was absolutely delicious and they had a great variety of meat that was all tender. I love the soft tendon it's my personal favorite! The banh mis are just as good and are THE perfect baguette texture, not too crispy and not too fluffy. Now with their coffee, I personally prefer an authentic phin drip cà phê sữa đá for the rich flavoring, as I believe this is just bottled lees coffee. It's still good, but could be better. It's amazing how much variety they have that can be difficult to find, like BÒ NÉ, as it reminds me of home in Vietnam. Overall, a great experience and I am 100% coming back to try more!
