    Regular pho with rare beef, tendon and tripe.  Broth was warm and underwhelming
    T P.

    I came here on a Monday for lunch and ordered the 2 egg roll appetizer to start and a regular pho with rare beef, tendon and tripe (My regular order). Restaurant has plenty of parking and a good menu. It was pretty busy too. The customer service is great! I grew up eating traditional, delicious Vietnamese food and eat Vietnamese food every week. The egg rolls are strange - I thought they were raw at first bc the stuffing is mushy. They're also greasy. Hard pass. The first thing I check is the broth temperature- it was warm. NOT HOT. Warm is no bueno. I added tons of lime, siracha and hoisin sauce and finally the broth was better. Very little ingredients. They could do really well if the broth arrived hot and there was more ingredients. For $13, don't cheap out.

    The staff was very friendly, the waitress was awesome always checking on us. The food was very flavorful, fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this hidden gem located on airway Blvd

    Very small and simple setting. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. We ordered two types of spring rolls. You get 2 per order and they are quite large. If you wanted, it could be a meal by itself. I ordered the Pho chicken soup. It was tasty- lots of flavor. I ordered the regular size- I couldn't finish it.

    Large Pho tai $9.95

    It really is about 3.5 stars IMHO. I rounded up to 4 since they had a very good/pleasant server who took care of me. My quest for the best pho continues in El Paso, TX. This is not a big place--perhaps seated 35 if all the tables/chairs were totally occupied. When I came here for Saturday lunch, there were altogether 20 people dining during the span of time when I was eating there. I received a good recommendation from one of my co-workers, so I just had to try it at least once. Boy, the large pho is really large (photo)...I almost couldn't finish it. That's really unusual for me since I normally have a very healthy appetite. So, why wasn't it the best there is? Broth--just didn't have the best tasting flavor...a little too thin/weak and murky-looking. Rice noodles--it came out a bit clumpy meaning that it sat out for a while after being warmed up. I had to loosen them up with my chopsticks before I started eating. Rare steaks--a little tough--there was no pink part even when it first came out from the kitchen. It was overdone (or sat in the broth too long) IMHO. There was no basil leaves provided, but there were plenty of cilantro instead. This was perhaps the first time I didn't have any basil at all the pho restaurants I tried in El Paso, and I must have tried at least seven different places. For these reasons, I will give 3.5 stars to Pho Bistro.

    Highly Recommend! We love coming here, we dine in about 3-4 a month. Their egg rolls are so good and we love their Pho Soup. We always ask for Chili Oil and Extra Cilantro. Customer service is very friendly.

    The service was nice however I am quite the pho connoisseur and I must say this pho was incredibly disappointing i took a few bites because I was hungry but hardly touched it. The meat wasn't good quality, the broth tasted like a strong chai over a nice pho broth. The spring rolls were good but nothing special. I would not reccomend the pho to people.

    Yet another overnight in El Paso last night, and as we drove by in the hotel van I noticed this place, and I had to stop by and see if El Paso knows good pho. So, I walked over to this establishment, and the people were very friendly. The last that took my order was more concerned about getting my order to the cooks than swiping my card, and didn't even ask for payment until the food was out. They were quick, polite, and had me ready to go in no time, and even offered me ice water in a to go cup. The walk wasn't a short one, but the food was still hot and fresh when I returned to my hotel room, and the veggies were surprisingly fresh from the jalapeño to the sprouts and limes! The broth was pretty good, and the brisket was mostly meat, not a lot of gristle (which I prefer). I'm overall very happy. No siracha sauce though, and I wish they had those deeper disposable spoons. That's really my only complaint. If you go with friends keep in mind their restaurant is not very large at all.

    First time eating here. Service and food were amazing! I had the new fish dish and it was tasteful…read moreand delicious. I had them add chile to make it extra spicy. My family had pho, egg rolls and fried rice and they were all yummy as well. Will definitely return and recommend to families and friends!

    I'm leaving this review to share a serious safety concern with a recent takeout order…read more I ordered a soup and a dessert through DoorDash, and the soup container (it was a DRINK container sealed with TAPE) melted from the heat, causing the food to spill and burn my husband's leg. This resulted in an actual injury, his leg is blistering from how bad it was, it is not just an inconvenience. We only received a $5.00 refund and a $10.00 credit for a $19.00 product that didn't only ruin our night, it caused an injury. What was most disappointing was the response when I contacted the restaurant. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the injury, and no indication that they would even review whether the packaging met appropriate safety or legal guidelines for extremely hot broth. I was simply told to go through DoorDash, which felt dismissive given the circumstances. I understand accidents can happen, but situations involving injuries should be handled with care, accountability, and basic concern for customer safety. I hope this feedback encourages safer packaging practices and a more responsible (and empathetic) response when issues like this are reported.

We've been a few times with 4 people which is a great size to bring here. The waitresses are very kind and helpful. They make all their sauces in house and everything we've ordered has been great. I prefer it to the other Vietnamese spots in the area. I really enjoyed the spicy dishes. I wish they made things a little hotter but I understand not wanting to blow anyone's tastebuds out with spice. I will come back - can't wait to try the oxtail next time I'm in town.

    My wife and I were in the mood for some pho, or at least I was and after reading some reviews on…read moreYelp, we got this place up. We got there and were promptly seated and greeted by Salma, our server. Place wasn't crazy packed and the ambiance was nice. We started with the pork belly Spring rolls and they were delicious, fat and fresh and the peanut sauce was so good. I just added some chili sauce to the peanut sauce and it was perfect. My wife ordered the Chicken Rice Bowl and I ordered the All Meat Pho. My wife's plate arrived and it was a good sized portion and she said it was delicious. My pho arrived and it was a large bowl full of meat and the added bean sprouts, jalapeños and cilantro were just the touch needed. The broth was delicious, clean and very nice. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal and plan on returning. Great service, great ambiance and decent prices, can't go wrong.
