    Spring rolls came with 3.
    Amy R.

    Hidden gem in Bethlehem. Went there for pho, which was delicious, will come back to try more menu items. Street/meter parking out front. If you don't want to pay the meter I'm sure you can find parking in the side streets and walk. We're greeted when we walked in and was able to choose where to sit. Good amount of seating option. Service was fast and friendly. Very welcoming. We order pho w/flank. Broth was very good. We also ordered crispy spring rolls. Also very good. Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for some good pho.

    We were looking for a place in the former steel town of Bethlehem. On a relatively quiet area, we came across the Pho Bowl when looking for the temporarily closed Kinoa. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food which is more Saigon. style. The portions were generous and quality was high. My only gripe regarded the lack of authenticity- the shrimps were peeked and the spring rolls lacked the usual bean sprout and basilkeaf garnish. Furthermore, the Tom Yum sauces was somewhat bland, lacking the usual distinctive lemongrass and citrus flavors likely to please American tastes. They also had popular Thai specialties such as Pad Thai. The service was efficient and the ambience basic but clean. A good c h oice for Bethlehem, especially when away from the major shopping streets.

    Friendly, fast, fresh & delicious are just a few ways to describe Pho Bowl. We go with the seasons here. Spring/Summer Bun and Spring rolls. Fall/Winter there signature dish - Pho and when they have the Vietnamese Beef Stew.

    At Pho Bowl, you're greeted with friendly service and a cozy ambiance. My go to is their beef broths - very rich and flavorful, without the heavy MSG use like other places. The bone broth is what provides the authentic and comforting meal. Pho Bowl is the go-to spot for Vietnamese food for me in the area! Rate: 3.5 Stars!

    Pho House Special

    We really enjoy Pho Bowl for the relaxed atmosphere, kind service, large portion sizes, great value, and most importantly, delicious food! The spring rolls were fresh and crispy. The Pho House Special is a great go-to, and the Bees Noodle Soup Hue Style is great for those looking for a spicier soup.

    Tom Yum soup

    Papaya salad was very good. Tom Yum soup too spicy for me , even though only one chili indicater; it tasted more like 2 chilis. I requested napa, carrot and scallions, but there were no mushroom or onion slices, which is how it comes. I also had fried basil rice with chicken in it. I forgot already. Red curry with chicken, yellow curry with chicken, beef pho and curry puffs were pretty good. Curry dishes needed salt. Seafood rolls were served very hot. Friend really liked them. Rice vermicelli seasoned with fish sauce was okay. Noodles were cold Best part of rice vermicelli was grilled chicken.

    Bahn mi was on point! Bread was a great combination of soft and firm. Perfect amount of pork and vegetables.

    Pleasantly surprised how good this place is! More importantly, the staff were very friendly. I just ordered take out but was treated very hospitably. They even opened the door for me on my way out. It's these small details that make me want to come back again. I almost didn't go here because of one terrible Bahn mi review but remembered that a lot of Yelpers are miserable trolls and have nothing better to do but hate on hard-working entrepreneurs. The food was excellent! I ordered a Tom Yum soup and Summer Rolls. Well-priced and great ambiance. I'm definitely going to be back a lot more.

The atmosphere was very nice, our server was engaging , and the featured entrees had great flavor. Unfortunately we both ordered the highly recommended oysters for our appetizers. $23.00/6 x 2 When served they were essentially oyster skins with no substance. We mentioned this to our server who agreed that this batch was unusually very small. We made mention of our disappointment to the hostess at our departure. She was kind enough to remove 1 order from our final bill which still left us paying $23.00/0 oysters.. If the product is not consistent with advertised expectations, apologize for this inconvenience and remove from current availability. Hopefully you can address this issue better for other guests.

We were seated right away in an open format atmosphere with the best balance of light and dark. The bar across from us looked fantastic. What we noticed right from the start is how well the staff works with and for each other to bring guests the best dining experience possible. Maddie was our server. She was kind, professional, patient, and knowledgable about both food and drink on a grand scale. Her recommendations were stellar. I had a refreshing gin and basil martini as well as their beef carpaccio, which was absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend started with their beef stew, which was thick and satisfying. It was so delicious, she almost canceled her entree to have more. She went with the home cooking route and indulged in their meatloaf with green beans and mashed potatoes. Although she loved that as well, half had to come home with her, which made for an excellent lunch the next day. I went with the raw of it all and got their spectacular tuna tartare with asparagus, radish, and rice. Usually, the tuna is cut into strips but this tremendous block of gorgeous fish knocked me out. Absolutely fantastic from presentation to flavor. For dessert, we got their brownie with ice cream and this was all upper level in taste and texture. I would be shocked if their ice cream hadn't been made in-house. We loved our first experience with Apollo and we look forward to our next visit, which is hopefully sooner than later.

Food that's absolutely a must order include the hummus platter, with extraordinary fresh bread. and the baklava. Both are epic! I had the lunch special, which was lamb kebabs with white rice. Lamb was ok but not remarkably spiced nor that tender. But it was good. The rice was a bit mushy and there was little to no dressing on the salad nor the red cabbage on the dish. Would have loved to have had something more like rice pilaf. Requested some white yogurt dressing on the side and this brought it together. I don't think one can judge a place based on the lunch special so I will definitely be returning to try more of their entrées that they're known for. The place was packed so clearly locals know this is a good place to go!

The restaurant is open very simple, has a take out area in the front. It's a good size space and there was no wait on a Saturday evening. The service and food was good although it did not compare to other Turkish restaurants in New York. Everyone was polite, service was good, we were not rushed, prices were fair and they did put their own spin on a few dishes. They are great for families and offer breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are many choices on the menu for all your meal choices. For breakfast you can have eggs, pancakes, Belgian waffles, juices, coffee, teas, potatoes and much more. They offer salads, sandwiches, wraps and you can probably have them make you whatever you want in a variety of combinations. There were three of us and we shared the falafel balls, and the pan fried liver as appetizers. They were good but not the best they had. For entrees we had the baby lamb chops, the mixed grill and the chicken Shish kebab. The mixed grill and chicken shish kebab were very good. The portions were a good size. The lamb chops were just "ok" the quality and flavor were not up to par. I had the bulgar wheat instead of rice and that was excellent. I would recommend them for a nice, relaxed meal.

Greeted via a wonderful gentleman Fred , who is also the owner of Mediterranean Grill. He seated us immediately. He took our order we decided to go with a chicken Shawarma wrap And lamb Shawar. Both had a beautiful presentation. We ordered a side dish of grape leaves and a hummus dip. The dip was amazing, smooth and creamy and flavorful, and the grape leaves had just the right touch of flavor, rolled to perfection. The chicken Shawarma was lightly seasoned with a garlic cream sauce. The lamb Shawarma was equally just as good and flavorful. The dessert was a Osmayli - creamy and delicious, not too heavy . The prices are reasonable.

All the staffs were extremely courteous and attentive. We ordered the Lomo Saltado and asked for yellow rice. The beef chunks were cut to perfection as we prefer this slicing rather than thinly sliced as you seen elsewhere. It had the right amount of marinated taste, accompanied by tomatoes, onions, and fries. Additionally, it had the perfect salt seasoning without overpowering. We also got the half Peruvian chicken with beans, salad and rice. Here too, we opted for yellow rice with no extra charge..which earned our applause. As we got to the place right when they'd opened, they did mention it will take about 1/2 hour for the chicken which we didn't mind one bit as you must appreciate the freshness. Once served, the chicken was absolutely moist and tender and didn't feel like we had to fight hard with the utensils with slicing. For appetizer, we shared maduros sweet plaintain and that too hit the spot. If you pay in cash, there is a minor discount which is a nice option. All in all, amazing food, fabulous decor and cleanliness, and awesome staffs. A very high recommend and we will be back.
