Food: Really good! The flavor of the pho broth was rich, deep, perfectly balanced. Spring rolls and summer rolls were also quite good. Everything tasted super fresh and comforting and all the dishes headed to nearby tables looked delicious. Service: Good. Only nitpick is the one waitress seemed fascinated by my fancy friend so she ended up ordering everything for the table. We received all the accoutrements and our water glasses were refilled appropriately. Ambience: Bright and clean. A good number of parking spots, but looks like it could easily be challenging if the place is full. We didn't try any drinks at this visit but a plus is that we saw several people bringing their own wine-so it's apparently a BYOB. Looking forward to another visit the next time a pho craving hits. read more

Nice and clean place. Service is great. The roll was fresh. Shrimp were seasoned quite well. But there wasn't enough pickled vegetables. a bit on higher side. read more

I am from Long Island recently moved here and this is by far some of the best freshest food we have found since moving here. Spring Rolls are perfect and the pho is perfection. We will be back again and again. read more

A varied menu with options for other dishes besides the pho selection. They do seem to use MSG, which is the reason for taking away one star

I was in the Willow Grove Mall area and wanted to get some Pho and Vietnamese iced coffee. This is the pho place I have been searching for. This review is only for their beef pho. I did not need to add anything to the broth except for sriracha and hot oil because I like it spicy. Usually I would need to add fish sauce or soy sauce because there would always be missing something that I can't quite figure out. But this place perfected their broth. The iced coffee was bitter and mildly sweet - just how I like it! Staff were very friendly and engaging and place was very clean. Too bad I live an hour away but kinda glad I live far away because I would be going everyday. read more

Stopped in for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. The pho came out steaming hot and the broth was incredibly fragrant. The beef was soft, and the noodles were silky. I loved that the portion was generous without being overwhelming. The restaurant felt clean and comfortable to sit in. The staff was friendly and made sure everything was okay. I'll definitely be revisiting this place.., read more

I've driven by for years and have never stopped in. Decided to grab take out for lunch. The restaurant was clean, staff was friendly and efficient. I ordered Thai tea, crispy spring rolls, scallion pancake and papaya salad. Everything was very good. Totally forgot to take photos, but I'll try some other menu items and take photos next time. read more

I'm a vegan so I got a vegetarian style pho and when I tell you it hitttttt the spot didn't expect it to be so much food that came with either. Customer service was awesome very helpful just let them know what you're looking for and they made sure I was comfortable the moment I walked in. Will be coming back. read more

food was great and very flavorful but took half an hour to order and an hour before the appetizer

I passed by Pho Ben City for years. Then someone suggested it. I walked in and was so delighted. It's pretty tasty. And nice atmosphere. You have to go. read more

I have driven by Pho Ben City hundreds of times. I stopped by for pho and banh mi. At the register, my total was double what I expected from online menu photos. I asked the gentleman about these things, and he said prices changed. I asked for a menu, but he said the order has not arrived. I asked if there was a current website with menu prices, but he said no. I guess the lesson here is to be prepared to lay an arbitrary price for mediocre banh mi and coconut soup. Maybe a second try (not on a Monday) will set the hook for me? read more

Love the pho here! Very flavorful broth in comparison to others I have tried at various pho restaurants.

The new owners have really taken this restaurant into the right direction. I used to call and no one would answer. Food would take over an hour for take out. Now, I always see a lot of cars in the lot and the food comes out in good time and it's delicious. So far we've tried the pho, pork chops with rice, crispy spring rolls, bun Bo hue, and special vermicelli bowl which could feed 2! It looks nice inside and the staff are friendly. read more

Delish food every single time. We love the pho the best. My daughter left her purse here after eating on accident, and it was saved for her untouched when we picked it back up the next day. Thank you! read more

I stopped in tonight and ordered the Brisket Pho thinking it would be relatively quick since it was a take out order. Well I was wrong it took 45 minutes! That is extremely long and if I had known I wouldn't have came in. So I said well since it took so long the food must be great. Wrong once again. The broth was not flavorful and was not hot. The amount of brisket you get for $15 my 8 year old child could finish and still be hungry. Very small portion of meat. I was left with a bunch of bean sprouts and noodles and no meat left. This was a waste of time and money for me I will not be returning. I know a better place with better portions and more flavorful broth and it takes about 15 mins for your order. read more

So, heard good things about this place from a friend, and we walk in and see the waiter from one of our favorite pho places in the city (Pho Xe Lua, "choo choo")! We've gone to Pho Xe Lua since the late 90s, and it has always been one of our favorite places to go, and it was such a trip to see the same waiter at this seemingly random pho place in Abington! In any case, we might have been biased with seeing our old waiter, but the pho was great! Broth was solid and had depth. Summer and spring rolls were clearly rolled to order and also solid! House fried rice also had a very familiar feel and taste, and we were very pleased. Looks like we found our new pho place close to home. read more

New owners and food. The pho broth is flavorful and the meat is fresh and tender not dried out. I really like the egg rolls because it's has more meat than taro and the wonton filling has shrimp. Rice is soft and fresh I hate dried out rice. Meat portions are filling and marinade is pretty good. Pork chops were caramelized with little hints of lemongrass. read more

I've driven by this place multiple times and have never stopped in. My coworker and I were craving bà ví, and this was the closest place that makes it. We stopped in around noon. The place is small, 15 tables maybe? It wasn't busy and we were seated immediately. We placed our order, but it took almost 45 minutes for it to come out. I assume that no one really orders it so they don't have it on hand, unlike pho. The entree is a sharing size, usually comes with thin vermicelli, beef wrapped betel leaves (bò lá lt), grilled pork patties (nem nng), sugar cane shrimp (cho tôm) and a bunch of fresh herbs. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because they ran out of the sugar cane shrimp, and they give fish sauce instead of mm nêm, the usual dipping sauce. Overall, very delicious. Next time I'll try something else. read more

food has always been good. I've been there for dinner and for lunch. Feel that the lunch menu is a bit expensive as my companions agreed.

DO NOT EAT AT THIS RESTAURANT Only one waiter We were the only patrons in the restaurant. Service is poor The wait between appetizers and dinner entry was very long. Our food did not taste appetizing. Save your money and your stomachs. read more

Wait time for food was ridiculous. Restaurant was less than half full at 6pm. We waited over a half hr just for appetizers. Only ordered soup and spring rolls. Wtf!! I had 2 young children with me starving for almost 45 mins. read more

Other Pho places provide greater quantity of food. Dessert appeared pricey as well. The chicken was cut small and plates definitely seemed smaller than other places in the area . read more

I woke up with a craving for pho. This scratched it, but barely. I had the deluxe pho and spring rolls. The key to great pho is great broth and this was just ok. It was by no means bad, but it was lacking in a certain depth of flavor. Spring rolls were fine. Nothing to write home about but nothing to complain about. It took about 45 minutes for my takeout order to be ready, which I'm not really sure I understand. The restaurant was fairly empty and there isn't really anything that needed to be cooked except for the spring rolls--the pho just had to be assembled. One note: When you order rare beef here they give it to you on the side completely raw. The idea is that the broth cooks it. I had about a ten minute ride home and this worked fine, but it might not have if I lived farther away. Just a warning. read more

New Owners and outstanding food and service! We always leave happy and satisfied. This our go-to restaurant in the area. Recommend Pho soups and traditional plates. The Deleux Bowl is great as are Tom Yum Pho and Ben Pho! read more

I was in PA due to running away from Hurricane Irma. It was a little cooler here than in South Florida so I wanted something warm. My sister in law suggested pho from Ben City. After checking out the reviews first, I decide to give them a try. My sister in law and I sat inside the restaurant. The rest aunt is small and cute. We were greeted and seated immediately upon arrival. Our waiter wasn't really the friendliest guy but lucky another waiter also assisted us who had a bit more personality. After reviewing the menu, I ordered steak and brisket pho without cilantro. Once the pho cane out it was nicely presented and steaming hot. The broth had a good flavor and the meat was fresh. I couldn't eat all of mine so I asked for a to go container. The waiter took my pho to the kitchen and packed it all in a container. I was a little disappointed because I wanted to separate the noodles to prevent them from becoming soggy. Let's just say I couldn't eat the leftovers. Overall, the pho was good and I'll definitely return but will not be taking home any leftovers. read more

My overall experience was good. Patrons had to wait 20plus minutes for the cook to arrive. I guess they weren't expecting guest to arrive early. The service was excellent and my order came out quick. The summer rolls were good but it had meat in it which I didn't like. The Pho was really good and hearty. I will definitely return and try something new. read more

Great service nice dining area, Will be returning to dine in. read more

Okay I am pleasantly surprised to have decent Vietnamese food in the suburbs! Granted I do not expect much from Asian restaurants in the suburbs of PA since it is usually very Americanized to cater towards the suburb crowd. We went later in the afternoon so there wasn't too many people there. Everything was well cooked from our chicken wings appetizer to the lemongrass chicken vermicelli plate. The pho was good as well - fairly standard. Nothing remarkable and nothing bad at the same time. The summer rolls were enjoyed which only had shrimp in then and not shrimp and pork. Portions are great. Parking: free parking lot Location: on Old York Road in a stand alone building read more

Start w an egg roll: either spring (fried) or summer (fresh w shrimp) Get a vermicelli bowl (pork better than beef) Get pho, bc it's a pho place and pho is magic when you're sick or hungover (bone broths are magic). I get the steak and meatball. The broth isn't as hearty as some other pho places but it does its job. Wonton is better than your avg Chinese joint if you like wonton soup Closed on Wednesdays. Better than being closed on mondays! I tried one of their curries but it was kind of plain so stick to Indian joints for that. Nice to have in this area bc otherwise it's Adams Ave in Olney ( over 5 pho places) or near Roosevelt mall. Or the gourmet bahn mi spot near Roslyn (sandwiches only and they are ~10). read more
