It's hard to find a good pho spot that does delivery so it was nice to find this place through Grubhub. There was a communication error and the food was late but the business did reach out to me to let me know the delay and they were apologetic. They were sweet enough to throw in a free Thai tea which my mom said was delicious. My mom and dad both enjoyed their chicken and all meat pho. It helped them out since they both are sick at the time and I knew this would help them feel better. read more

Poor service, sticky table, very salty, extremely hard to find parking it was just me and my daughter and they served her food 10 minutes before they brought my food out we ordered the same thing read more

The pho D' Lite missing a lot of items. No fat brisket, tripe and basil. And the soup and noodles is halfway. No good read more

Pho D'Lite - Vietnamese Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

This place is the absolute worst. I really only come here when I don't want anything else to eat. I will only get the noodle bowl, no protein. Can't mess up noodles...or can you?? Service is extremely slow and spotty and nothing against teenagers/young adults being wait staff, but learn some customer service. read more

Ordered Uber eats from this place to give it a 2nd chance. They really dont want the business. They blame the uber driver for forgeting the order. Uber driver gets the tge order that you give them and you give the uber driver an incomplete order. Thats it for me on this place. This establishment wont long if they dont change their ways. Plus they never even apologized for they mistake when we came to pick up the food ourselves. read more

Pho D'Lite - Vietnamese Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

The pho is pretty good but this particular location is terrible. There were fruit flies everywhere and weird stuff floating in my water. The server was pretty inattentive and rude. We had to pretty much flag her down (intense forced eye contact) to place our order and then had to ask for the plate of bean sprouts, jalapeños, and basil. It was my sister's first time having pho so she asked if the P4 had beef broth, the server didn't know so I had to answer her. We also ordered wings which took forever to come out and we had to ask about them a few times. I understand that they take longer to cook, but it would've been easier to just give us a heads up and we ordered them at least 10 minutes before the pho order and they still showed up about 15 minutes after our second time asking. I had a groupon, which I admit did say "$20 for dinner" but there was no specific time that dinner started and the price of the pho did not change after a certain time. The sign on the door that listed the groupon rules didn't even mention it, so I assumed that it was just arbitrary and I paid more for the $20 groupon rather than the $15 lunch one. The server was very rude and just kept saying "we're not taking that it's not dinner time" so I had to speak with a manager who told me I could use it this time but next time it's not until after 5PM. I suggested she include that in the groupon, but either way it's kind of pointless considering the menu prices don't change at night. Long story short, this location is awful. I prefer the one in Parkville. I used to live closer to that one and I've never had an issue there. read more

I usually like eating here but the service and the food has gone down hill. I ordered pho for pickup and there were no noodles in my bag. I informed the server and he told me to bring back the bag to prove it. Why would I lie about some Noddles and then to add injury over insult they gave a tiny amount of noodles. I am never eating at this place again. Don't waste your money and eat here!!! read more

Went there during dinner Had a coupon Food was not food Pho was not good Beef over rice was not good Thai tea as not good Good day... read more

Staff are very pleasant and I definitely will be back. I older the butter wings all flats and the Thai tea with no ice! Now let's eat bc I'm so ready. The Thai tea is pretty good almost reminds of a cold chai tea. read more

I'm not a Pho expert but I thought it was pretty tasty. Ordered the Pho Dlite (beef.) They provide a separate plate of lime wedges, bean sprouts and jalapenos to add to the Pho. Good portion sizes. Waitress was polite although she wasn't able to answer any of our pho questions because she "only eats the rice dishes." Service was slow but adequate. read more

One of my favorite restaurants to visit for quick meals.. the pho shrimp soup is fabulous. I enjoy going there for happy hour. Wish that happy hour timeframe went past 5pm because sometimes it is hard to get there by 5pm from where I work. Anytime I feel like I'm coming down with a cold or have a sour throat it is something about the pho soup that heals me after eating. The customer service is great, food is served quickly and it good to see young people (waiters) display attentive courteous service. Having the Chia Tea with my meal is an added tip. Thank you the coupons and for advertising on Groupon, I tend to go more often when I have coupons. I live for discounts read more

The customer service here is what earned this establishment 5 stars. There were 3 young ladies working the evening that I ate here and they were all so pleasant and helpful. This was my first pho experience and I'm glad I had my first experience here! I ordered the eggrolls which were spicy, crispy, and very tasty. After that I ordered the chicken pho. One word...flavor, flavor, flavor. Well that's the same word three times. The broth in the chicken pho was extremely flavorful. I would definitely return and order the exact same thing! This place did not disappoint. read more

I called in my order to go for two pho noodles with beef broth and one chicken Pho with Crispy Butter Wings. The young lady, Kai-Alayne provided great customer service over the phone and in person. They did an amazing job preparing everything in a quick fashion. I arrived at 11:45 and placed the order at 11:30. They were very friendly when I walked in. I told them no need to rush cause I knew I was early. But they didn't seem to mind and gave me my order as soon as I sat down. I was very pleased. When I arrived home, the food was hot and enjoyable for my grandparents and I. Keep up the great work! read more

Great customer service to match the great food. Always great for a rainy day. If you want to have authentic pho this place is a must!

We were there around noon 01/20/2018, I ordered pho veggie and my two friends ordered Pho D'Lite. When we got home from this location, we experienced; diarrhea. Unbelievable how all three of us got sick at the same time. I called and asked, yes, this place is under management. Stay away from this location. read more

Pho D'Lite - Vietnamese Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

I had a Groupon for Pho D'lite, so I figured I'd give it try despite the negative reviews. The restaurant was completely empty which made me a little nervous. Food was less than mediocre. Noodles were mushy and ingredients subpar. Got the egg roll appetizer and they were very small, also lacked flavor. Definitely won't be back! read more

This place is exactly as I had assumed, chain restaurant pho with less than satisfactory pho broth steeped with what appears to be green onions only. I had to ask for your typical pho toppings (basil, sprouts, jalapeños, and a lime wedge). You shouldn't even be in the business of serving pho if you don't AUTOMATICALLY serve it with the necessary veggies! I also tried a pork rice bowl and it was better than the pho. All in all, my suggestion would be to go north on 301 towards Crofton and stop at VN noodle. Amazing broth.....served with tons of veggies and where the broth is actually steeped with star anise, fennel, etc. not just plain 'ole green onions!! read more

First clue should have been no patrons. This place was recommended to me from a nail salon in San Jose, CA. I mentioned that I was going to Bowie, MD and was told her brother owned this place and it was great. We were told we could order "To Go". We ordered a vermicelli dish. It was ready in less than 5 minutes. When we got it home the noodles were way over cooked and the chicken wasn't fresh. You can tell it was days old and very dry. I believe it was left overs just thrown together and into the microwave. We stopped eating it because we were afraid we would get food poisoning. It was the worse vietnamese food I have every had. read more

If I don't have to give even one start I wouldn't! We are regulars at the location in Parkville and i suggest you all choose that location first! The food potions were quite funny in Comparison to the Parkville location! First of all who ever is in the kitchen was slow, kitchen staff full of people and a restaurant with not more than 4 people and consistent takeouts but come on people! Then the shredded carrots where brown slimy and gave rice bowl a bad flavor! I told then and all the said was the salad was fresh! We will never be back read more

It was cool! Food tastes fresh. If you like Pho you will enjoy this place. Staff was really nice. read more

it is like. really bad. the pho broth is weirdly thick and flavorless and the meat smelled baaaddddddd

IF in this day your restaurant doesn't have a free wireless option, automatic 2 stars. And if this same restaurant offers a shrimp salad but slices the shrimp so thinly that one has to wonder "how did they do that?", I'm never going back. I thought I'd burn time in between waiting for my hair appointment and run for a quick salad, but how disappointed I was. The salad was mediocre at best, the shrimp rolls were hard to chew (the outside wrap wasn't soft), inside were the same thinly sliced shrimp - incredible talent and skill that must've taken. Two stars at best but do try the Pho since that's their specialty. I didn't bother, and probably never will. read more

Food was terrible. I eat here often but this time they didn't know the difference between the beef, chicken, and veggie broth. I ordered beef broth was given chicken and argued down that it was beef. My lunchmate ordered veggie broth as she can't eat meat. She was given beef broth and argued down that it was veggie. She got sick at the table since her body doesn't consume meat. All we were told was oh sorry but it's veggie broth. read more

First time here, thought I'd give it a try since I love Pho and Southeast Asian food. Had the summer shrimp summer rolls, they were ok. Also had the Penang Curry w/shrimp, again ok. The Thai tea was really good. I'd go again to try the Pho. Hopefully that'll be pretty good. I did a takeout order. Ready in about 10 minutes. Service was good. read more

This was not my first visit but it was by far the worse. Food was super delayed. All 4 of us got our food at different times. By the time my husband got his shrimp panang, he not only didn't like it, it was cold! My shrimp vermicelli was not well made, missing ingredients and unenjoyable. Only 1 out 4 of us was satisfied. Weekend must not be a good time. Week day experiences were much better. My husband's food was on the house. read more

Pho D'Lite - Vietnamese Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

See all

This place is pretty solid for pho. The rice bowls are good too. The focus is on light and Fresh, so may not have staples on a SE Asian menu. But worth going in for a healthy lunch. Prices reasonable. Under $10. Decor is great and Service was decent. Food came out quick. I had prev been a fan of the one in college park during the college years. And I was glad this location held up the same overall and diddnt fall into the Bowie lackluster standard. read more

We were very disappointed dining here. The staff wasn't knowledgeable about veggie versus meat stock. I had to jump hoops to get the plate of basil, sprouts, and jalapeños, the Thai salad was awful. It just was not a good experience at all. We will not be going back. read more

Lots of authentic dishes that taste great..good portions but very avg service...I would go back to try something different read more

Pho D'Lite - The bar - Vietnamese Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

No help! Took over an hour to get my food! Then open my food and it looks nothing like the picture! I thew it away. Wasted time and money.

I didn't even try the food. VERY INEFFICIENT! Waited 20 minutes just for the employee to tell me that there is no dine in. I was ready to order takeout and the employee answers a phone order in the kitchen. Waited 20 more minutes not to even get my take out order taken. They have 2 people cooking in the back. Why not have on person come out real quick to take an order and go back, as opposed to stay in the kitchen and act like nobody is there? If you plan to order in person, DONT. Just put a phone order because apparently that's more of a priority. Also, I wasn't the only one waiting. Might as well go to pho 5up a couple miles away. At least they greet you. read more

I decided to try something different and I'm glad I did. Found this place while driving by with my daughter. The atmosphere is welcoming and the service was quick as we were seated immediately. I ordered the Pad Thai and my daughter ordered the Pho D'Lite. Both dishes were great and we had no complaints. The size/portion of food was surprisingly more than we expected. Ingredients tasted fresh and the presentation was nice. While this was my first time it won't be my last. I would of given 5 stars however they don't serve alcohol and I was looking forward to an "adult" beverage as I ate in addition to the can of soda that was brought out with a straw. Would of preferred to see a glass and ice... again... if we're talking strictly food... this place is good. read more

This is kind of like a South East Asian version of Noodles & Co or Pei Wei. The menu has items to represent parts of Southeast Asian food. The decor is nice enough and the staff is polite. It's always clean and my order is always right. I just can't get over how utterly lackluster the food is. I've tried it out 3 times now and left very unimpressed. read more

Worst experience ever had at a food place. When seated was never offered anything to drink, food came with old hard limes, Thai basil was withered and the bean sprouts were brown/soggy. When asked if we could receive new limes we were told that we would have to use the old limes, which were solid hard, because the food truck wasn't in yet. Upon expressing the issue with old ingredients given the waiter told us to wait for the manager to come out and explain the issue with him, but he never came out. Manager claimed he was too busy to speak. Strongly advise to not go here unless you want a terrible experience. read more

Food is delicious, service is good, so glad this place is here!

I really love Pho! This place is definitely much improved from the former pho restaurant in terms of quality and service. I almost let the lack of 4 stars keep me away, but I'm happy that I didn't. I will definitely return. read more

Under new ownership, hidden gem. Clean establishment and food is always fresh. I wish they delivered directly to Bowie State.

This is my new favorite Pho restaurant,great service excellent food,fast you can not beat it everyone come to to pho D Lite and the prices are great. Thank you David for the amazing service read more

Overall take.... This place would be closed if it were in N.Va. Visit only to keep the waitstaff gainfully employed. Steer clear of the Pho, try the other dishes. If you want Pho, shop elsewhere or head to Va. The two stars are for the waitstaff and the fact that we were actually served food. While I'm normally not this critical, I have to say that this was the worst take on Pho I have ever experienced. The good... incredible personalities and attitudes of the waitstaff. Very welcoming and hard working, despite being understaffed. They crew gets 5 stars. It is a shame they even have to be associated with this review. If you go, tip well, they are worth it. The bad... (inhale) I am not new to Vietnamese cuisine, especially Pho, and I may be biased as I frequently dine at one of the numerous (more authentic) Vietnamese spots in N. Va. Pho D'lite (appears to be a chain) is advertised as a Southeast Asian Kitchen/ Fusion restaurant. This is evident in their menu, however, with the name one would be lead to believe that Pho was its mainstay. Pho D'Lite in Bowie is lite on Pho! This experience leads me to believe the owners of this establishment are either not Vietnamese, way too cheap to be restauranteurs, or both. Pho: What I was served appeared to be either an unimpressively stocked northern style (Pho bac) or a poorly accompanied Southern style (Pho nam). Wasn't sure if there was a style difference because we had to ask for the accompanying veggies/herbs. Assume they are just cheaply done Pho nam like most other establishments in the area. Either way, they missed the mark. The scoop: 1. Large odd shaped bowl to make you believe you are getting a large bowl, but not a traditional large bowl of Pho by any other standard. Nice look though. 2. Skimpy on lukewarm broth and needed more herbs (basil, ngo gai, bean sprouts, etc) to get any flavor depth. When added veggies and addl meat, broth soaked up like I had added crackers. Ended up with a crunchy, lukewarm mess. 3. Order of extra meats came out frozen in a bowl (not in broth) and had to add cold meat to an already lukewarm bowl of soup. 4. Order of extra noodles doesn't come in broth. Had to order additional side of broth to accompany noodles. 5. Shrimp Pho... where are the shrimp? 6. Can't order pot of steeped tea for the table, must order by the cup and with tea bags. Refills are extra. 7. Summer Rolls... again slacking on the filling. Exhale.... To conclude, save your $$ and go elsewhere. The Kids take: You can find better value and flavor in a bowl of microwaved Pho Bo (YEAH Oh'Ricey)!!! read more

Ugh. I generally have pho at least once a week. In San Diego we have almost as many pho joints as burrito stands. This was certainly the worst pho I have ever had. The noodles were cooked OK, hence two stars, but the broth completely lacked flavor and body. There are better options in the area. Saigon Noodle House up on 450 is a much better choice & has way better parking as well. read more

I was looking for a decent Vietnamese Pho place in Bowie, and then I found this location. I had a high expectation, since I'm from California where Pho restaurants are everywhere. This place did not disappoint me, everything from service to cleanliness was on point , and the soup was amazing. Highly recommended read more
