Great Pho, nice people, comfortable place. Good place for lunch if you want some spice.

I said I'd never go back because last time they pissed me off with their $2 "to-go fee", but here we are... We went back for dinner on Saturday. Food was great! Employees were still super friendly, patient, helpful. And no, they didn't have a 'non-cash surcharge' like some other places I recently blacklisted. So all in all, very pleasant dinner experience. Will definitely go back to *this* Pho Da Lat location. (*Not* the one on Middlesex because last few times we went there it was filthy and overtaken with flies. Yuk!) read more

After 11 years, Pho Da Lat, you continue to suck a lot! We finally went back today and ordered two bowls of pho and one Vietnamese crepe for our son. The two bowls of pho came out quickly. They were ok, not super flavorful but not awful. They were stingy on the meat, and we got a large too, would have expected more but it was less meat in there than a regular size bowl I get at Pho 88. After 30 minutes, the Vietnamese crepe is still not out after we inquired on it twice. We gave up waiting since my husband and I were done with our meals already and the food still wasn't out. We ended up having to get McDonalds on the way home for him. They never even tried to make things right, just kept telling us it will be out soon and asking us to wait. Such a frustrating and disappointing experience! Will never go back again. Ruined the family meal we were hoping to have. read more

Came here for Vietnamese food. Parking was convenient and the lot was fairly big. We were able to sit at a booth and it was perfect size. I got the number 34 which was a rice plate with sliced pork and added an egg. Everything went well together with the fish sauce. No complaints! the iced milk tea was very sweet, also very light and milky. The Vietnamese iced coffee was also delicious and had a nice kick to it. Good place for Vietnamese food! read more

Ordered Chicken Pad Thai. The chicken was old and overcooked. Everything was very dry. For an expensive dish that costs $17.95, it should be of high quality and delicious. Unfortunately, it was not. I am very disappointed. read more

Very expensive, servings are tiny. We got the beef teriyaki to try, and it came with two tiny skewers that were dry and had a odd taste- disappointing read more

Horrible service. My family of three went to eat. The waiter only gave me one glass of water and I asked for chili sauce. The waiter gave me to go chili sauce. It was very little and he charged $2. I think it's... Not fair I won't go back to that restaurant again. Bye. I don't want to give any stars. Is there a negative one? read more

Love this place! We came here after having a nice long day in NH and driving back to MA. The pho was delicious (and speedy) and the service was friendly and accommodating. Love how the pho dac biet broth turned out, and the rice plate we got was pretty yummy too. The staff here are so sweet and quick with getting our family what we need to dine in, and the atmosphere (on a Sunday evening) was calm and relaxing. We will definitely be back! read more

I was eating here with my bf and he said that his pho bowl had a taste like dish soap or didn't clean the bowl good. He also said he will never come here again. Sadly last time we ll come here, plus very sketchy day they came to pick up the food so fast after like they did something weird. If you want food tamper with just come here. He mention something about this waiter here the sob.. man.. read more

We came in late on a Sunday because it was one of the few places open. We sat down and started to peruse the menu. I opened up Yelp to see what people recommended... and lo and behold there were a LOT of negative reviews. After reading them, my husband, son, and I almost got up and left before we were even served water. But my son was too embarrassed to get up and leave, so we stayed and ordered the pho.... And it was absolutely DELICIOUS! I ordered the chicken pho, my son ordered the beef pho, and my hubby got the vegetable pho - all OUTSTANDING! We will definitely be back! It's hard running a restaurant business and I give these guys respect for being out there. read more

Came for the first time in a couple years and remembered why I always go to pho 88 instead (less than a mile down the road). Better food, better service, better ambiance. They snuck a $2 surcharge in for a teaspoon of chili flakes. When I complained, they said "costs are going up." I can buy an entire canister of chili flakes for $2. No reason to go here when pho 88 is within walking distance. None. read more

Delicious Vietnamese cuisine. Pleasant atmosphere and good waitstaff. The pho is very good portions are large and noodles delicate

Lately it seems a lot more expensive for less tasty food. I hope the flavors improve.

Service- 6 Food- 0 Place went downhill from when I was last here (2018) sad to say. Pad thai- have NEVER seen this dish made the way they served it that day. Sweet and sour salmon soup- overly sweet and salmon was overbearing the soup. Pho- bland Chicken wings- over cooked read more

I wish I could give ZERO Stars. This place has gone downhill. My father and I came here to celebrate my Birthday and the place wasn't even packed. The service sucked really bad. We ordered the Seafood Pho and Crispy Phad Thai and told our server that we were splitting it, he still only brought one plate and one bowl and was confused when we asked for another plate and bowl (brought the bowl, not the plate). Ordered a drink that never came and the server was confused when we told him that we never got it and to take it off the bill. They only seem to care about the To Go orders and the drunks at the bar. We are never going back again. Avoid this place at all costs. read more

We saw this place several times and decided to give it a try. But I have to say that it was quite disappointed. We ordered soft shell crab (they put very salty stir fry onion and carrot sauce on top of crab, which ruined the dish), beef vermicelli spicy soup (good), Vietnamese crepe (not very tasty at all. however we used the sauce from soft shell crab, which made it much better), and special beef noodle soup (only came with a few slices of flank and they seemed to skip all the other ingredients). read more

Came in for Sunday Lunch, good service, and great food. Pho - very good tasty broth Caramelized Pork (family style) definitely hit the spot, pairs great a big bowl of rice. I added in some of my husband's fresh pho garnishes (basil and jalapeños) and some chili oil paste And everything came together deliciously !!!#BOMB I asked for a small bowl of broth, and the server came over with it quickly and charged a decent price for it. Overall super satisfying Sunday lunch. Keep up the great work! read more

Delicious food. I've been coming for a long time and especially love the pork skin spring rolls and pho. Definitely highly recommend.

Appetizers (fried tofu and beef teriyaki) were just ok. The Pad Thai that I ordered was boring and flavorless. Then, when I tried to use the restroom, I find out that I can't because I can't get my wheelchair through the doorway of said bathroom. That actually might be against the handicap accessibility laws but whatever. Understand that I am in a regular sized wheelchair so there's no excuse. read more

To be completely honest I was shocked when Pho Da Lat opened up in Drum Hill, making it the third installment of this restaurant in a 10 mile area. Pho Da Lat took over the space vacated by Garlic Bistro and I am glad they did! What an awesome addition to Chelmsford! If I'm being transparent I really never had been to any of PDL's previous locations. After wanting a hearty Asian-style vegetarian meal I perused their nicely designed website and I was thoroughly impressed. My sister and I decided to grab take out last night: #92-a vegetable and tofu soup (pho style) and #94, vegetable and tofu with flat noodles and sauce. Total was $22.36 with tax which I found to be completely reasonable. The takeout was ready after 15 minutes and was piping hot! The bag was also heavy- an indication that I received my money's worth (hey, I'm not hating that entrees in the US are super-sized). The bartender was very nice and professional and helped me with the takeout order at the host podium. While at the restaurant I was impressed with the remodel and the modern design and clean, sleek look. There is also a pretty huge fish tank that separated the bar area from the dining area. I definitely would eat in the restaurant next time. The food was still hot when we made it to my parents house and the ingredients were fresh and tasty. #92 was separated into a canister of nicely seasoned broth and a paper takeout box with the medley of vegetables and tofu and vermicelli noodles in it. There was also a small container with some kind of brown spicy sauce which was excellent and a clear bag of sprouts, basil, jalapeño slices and lime wedges. #94 consisted of fresh vegetables and some sautéed tofu over flat noodles and sauce. Both entrees were delicious. I definitely enjoyed my meal and ordering experience and look forward to my next visit to the restaurant. Check it out for yourself! Thanks, Pho Da Lat, you guys are killing it in C-town. :) read more

NOTE: The place is now Pho Da Lat (2012). ----------------------------------------------------------- Decent place for Thai food. Open for lunch (Monday-Saturday) and dinner (everyday). The dining room has framed printed artwork on the walls and plenty of wood tables & wood chairs and a full bar with wood stool seating. I stopped here for lunch recently and ordered a bowl of Chicken Coconut Soup ($2.95) and Pad Thai ($7.25). The Chicken Coconut Soup had chicken, baby corn, scallions, & lime juice in steaming with Siamese ginger/coconut milk broth, a good start. The Pad Thai (small lunch portion) was topped with crushed peanuts & shrimp with cold bean sprouts on the side, decent tasting. The service here was okay. read more

The soup here tasted like grey skies, my favorite weather! I loved how the server knew my therapist's advice to be independent and help myself by leaving me alone for extended periods of time and having minimal intent to talk to me. When I was eating here, I had the sudden urge to be the person at a sleepover to say "Time for bed!" Wonderful place to eat my heart out. read more

I came here with my husband for pho. We had very limited time and let the server know we needed to be out in 30 minutes. They brought us the delicious pho out instantly and we even paid early and got out on time. The service was great and the pho broth had awesome flavor. I will be coming back again. read more

Poor service. Took them almost 10mins to come get our order. We had to ask 3 times for water/tea. My pho ga broth was salty as hell & the chicken was super dry. I've tried to give this place so many chances. Also charged me $3 for some watered down, warm tea. read more

We were just in the area and were looking for some place to eat. The reviews were good so we decided to go here. The interior was beautiful, very modern and sleek. My biggest pet peeve in a restaurant is when they have a fish tank for decoration and they are way too small for the fish. It wasn't the case here. The water is clean, the tank is huge with a small number of fish. We got seated very quickly in a big booth. It was a midday during the week so the place was empty and we could actually hear another group of customers were talking in Vietnamese. It was that quiet. I ordered Hu tieu Nam Vang (pork broth white noodle with seafood) The bowl was huge but most are just noodle. The seafood are fresh and broth was flavorful and light (a little too light for my perference though). My husband ordered the combo fried rice and he loved it. He cleared the decent sized plate even though he said he wasn't that hungry before the meal. The staff was polite and soft spoken. They did check on the food once but never refill the empty water. Overall, it was a good experience, definitely will come here again. read more

The absolute _WORST_ service I've ever encountered. One of the few times I've left "Zero" for a tip.Daughter wanted Vietnamese food for her birthday so we went here. Friday, 7pm, not crowded. We ordered a large portion of soup for the two of us. Waiter brought tureen of soup but no bowls. Finally got bowls so we could eat soup. Crispy pad thai came in large plate but no individual plates to eat it from. Daughter was by now so upset we took remaining food as take out and had her birthday dinner at home. Avoid this place like the plague. read more

This place was so awful!!! The staff was rude and inconvenienced by me asking for anything! And the Pho soup was absolute garbage! Wish I could give it less stars! read more

Fairly new and clean Vietnamese restaurant. Smelled great and I was referred here. I was seated and sat, and sat. Once order was taken the food arrived quickly as I had ordered Pho soup. It was flavorful and good, and filling. Service left my glass of soda pop stay empty till I stopped them to point out my empty glass and no free refills apparently led to sticker shock on my tab. Decent food, for what I had and would stick with water bext time. read more

Pho Da Lat - Beef Pho - Chinese Near Me - Chelmsford, Massachusetts

Decided to come here spontaneously with my bf and we were very impressed with pretty much everything. Ambience: Easy going; there's a nice bar to chill @ if you're not looking for a big meal and just want to stop by for a drink or two. Food: Decided to order the 7 course beef meal; it was my first time and they did not disappoint. There's a choice for SM or LG, we did large because go big or go home. I enjoyed all courses, my favorite of course was the beef spring rolls. Service: Perfect; our waiter was very kind and polite. Answered all my questions since it was my first experience trying the 7 course meal. Even someone from the kitchen came out to ask if everything was ok. They made sure we're enjoying our food. Will definitely come again! read more

Scallop and mixed veggie dinner costs $25. it has 4 scallops in it that they cut in half to make it appear as 8. Very overpriced. Pad Thai was made of weird crunchy noodles and contained no peanuts. Not bad but they should describe it better so you know what you're getting. Crappy service at bar and home shopping network was playing on TVs. Will not be back. read more

Recent first time customer and the food was amazing! Staff was attentive and I can't wait to go back.

I always recommended this business. But last time my husband and I went there, we are really not impressed. It's 2 stars just because they finally take it off the bill after we tried to explain what we complained which not really what we tried to achieve. Well anyway just a warning, and hope you guys not experiencing what I had. So I ordered me ketang no.41. With shrimp. When it came, I can smells it fishy, which never happened before, so I thought maybe the fish sauce? So I tried ate the shrimp and spit it because It raste mushy and fishy. So my husband tell the waiter that my shrimp is fishy, and I asked him if I can have beef instead? In 8-10 mins the waiter came back with me ketang with beef on top. I can see that it's the same noodle they just picked the shrimp off and replaced it with beef, and I also found a shrimp on the pile of noodle when I tried to mix the noodlewith beef. So I began to eat the noodle and I tasted the fishy-ness from the shrimp. I just keep eating the veggies and the beef and done. Although no. 41 is my fave noodle Im so sad not able to eat the rest of the noodle. When the bill came, they charged me still with shrimp on no.41 so my husband was trying to explain the manager, the waiter is just pretend not understand the situation and the manager that day said 'ooh the kitchen don't know, they wasn't told' idk who blame who. I just want them to charge beef, and make my fave food fresh. And ought to your mistakes. Thats all. I rather pay my food than leave this rotten review. And warning people for fishy and rotten shrimp. And worried for people health that you don't care for. Luckily I have asian tummy that strong enough for rotten shrimp read more

I don't normally write reviews even when the service is bad but this takes the cakes. I tried most of the Vietnamese restaurants in the greater Lowell area because I'm renovating a house in Chelmsford and on a cold days, Pho is what I'm craving for. I decided to walk in this restaurant and no one was at the front desk and I can see two of the waiters out back. I looked at the menu and had asked to be seated. The waiter came over and I told him #17 Large special pho and a HOT TEA. 10 minutes later, no hot tea and the waiter brought out the bowl of soup. I asked him again for hot tea since I would like to drink it before the noodle gets here. Now that the noodle is here, the spoon and the fresh side veggies is not here. Waited for several more minutes while the soup is getting cold and finally he brought out the veggies and spoon. I asked for chili garlic oil and still no hot tea. I started to put the veggies into my soup and a found piece of hair is stuck to the slice of lemon, he finally brought out the kettle of tea but it was like warm. I told him that there's hair on the lemon and never apologized and just took the plate out. At that point, I was almost done eating the pho, not much meat for a large bowl and I drank a half a cup of warm tea and went to the register to pay the bill. The total came to $18 and some change and I just questioned him since the noodle is $13.95. He said the Hot tea is $2.99. I don't mind paying anything that I ate or drink regardless of the price. I have never been charged for drinking hot tea in a Vietnamese before especially when I'm eating in there. It's like asking for tap water and getting charged for the glass. It's that bad that they have to charge customers $3 for hot tea. I would have been fine if the service was good and the tea was hot and brought out in a timely manner. read more

Pho Da Lat is my go to pho place in the Middlesex county area. They're noodle soup are amazing, so much taste and you're able to choose from many options of pork, beef, shrimp, mix of seafood (I'm a sea food lover so this is my calling). So for me, the seafood noodle soup was one of their best ones, although you can't go wrong with chicken or wonton. I love that they have different portion sizes for the noodle soups. They have a variety of options for noodle dishes. Their crab rangoon was probably one of the best I've ever had (and I've had a lot). As well, their grilled shrimp steamed vermicelli was a mediocre dish, however I do wish they added more of a base to the dish. But, I also think that vermicelli is meant to be more dry! The restaurant is nicely set up and decorated inside with a nice staff. Will definitely be coming here for most of my pho cravings! read more

We came to this restaurant for the first time because we got lost in an unfamiliar town, turned around, and happened to find the place. One of the foods we ordered was cooked in water broth not tasty the way they cooked and I had to take it home to add other colorful veggies such as carrots, and broccoli and add spices and sauce to make it a lot better taste for my son stayed at home. The bill receipt was just a credit card payment total without a price description for the customer to keep, the merchant copy is stapled with each price description receipt of what items we ordered, drinks, appetizers, and main meals for a total of $90 for two of us when we saw the stapled merchant copy of each price, not for us customers, we weren't careful about checking the prices of each food, however, we later noticed that we were overcharged quite a bit just like many commentators here are saying. It's disappointing if the restaurant or wait staff, do not have honest ethics towards diners. Needless to say, we will not go back there. read more

Well let's begin with service it was horrible right from the beginning we got here and it was not welcoming. We were seated and waited for our waiter/waitress waited 30 minutes to get water then waitress comes by doesn't introduce herself. We ordered some appetizers she just walked away we looked at each other like did she hear us? 30 minutes later we got our appetizers. We had a question on the size of the bowls and we got attitude. We just decided to pay for what we had and left. We will not be coming back. read more
