This spot has become one of my go-to staples, especially since it's such an easy drive and there's…read moreplenty of convenient parking right by the Fred Meyer. It's the kind of place you can count on when you're craving something comforting but don't want to deal with any hassle getting there. I almost always find myself ordering the bun bo hue - it's flavorful, and hits every time. Their vermicelli bowls are another favorite of mine, super fresh and satisfying with the perfect balance of textures. Their meat and toppings are amazing. You really can't go wrong with either. What keeps me coming back (besides the food) is the service. The staff is consistently friendly, quick, and genuinely welcoming. There's just a warm, easygoing energy every time I walk in that makes the whole experience even better. Overall, it's one of those reliable spots that never disappoints - great food, great vibes, and super convenient. Definitely a regular in my rotation.

Good thing Yelp reminded me that it's not too far from my mother's house. The restaurant was nice decorated as if it's a small village in Vietnam with alot of cute decors. There's a good amount of space and seating in there, plenty of parking as it shares a complex with other stores. The service was exceptional, the staff was really attentive and friendly. The food was decently portioned and well-priced. It tastes authentic, flavorful and fulfilling. I would totally come back here and recommend you to try it out if you haven't already. They have some stuff on the menu that's very intriguing that I already want to come back to try.

Really disappointing experience overall…read more Tables were dirty. The interior and exterior of the place represent the food and customer experience... lacking, needs improvement, needs more depth. The pho was very disappointing. The broth was bland, watered down, and slightly sweet with no depth of flavor. Service from the man with the micro ponytail was poor and very impatient. When we asked about the rice combo dish, we were told that several items shown on the menu and in the photos are no longer available because "white customers don't like it," which was surprising for a Vietnamese restaurant. Do yourself a favor and go next door to Lang Viet by Fred Meyer. It is less than a one minute drive.

I've confirmed with the staff that they don't use msg because the soup tastes so good! I also didn't feel tired or super thirsty a few hours later so that's also a really good sign they didn't put msg or a lot of salt. Combination pho (5/5) Unbelievable taste, lots of flavor, soup came out piping hot and lots of fresh ingredients and meat. The noodle itself is also cooked perfectly. Vermicelli with pork and egg rolls (5/5) The pork is very tender and tastes delicious, the sauce that comes with it is not overly salty and you don't need to pour so much since the noodles and ingredients taste very flavorful already. The service here matches the amazing flavors. They are very attentive and always make sure we are happy the entire meal. The place looks very clean and well decorated. I would definitely want to come back and try everything on the menu!

On a Friday night, I was craving a big bowl of bun bo hue and my husband decided to try the banh mi…read moresandwich. Def picky w/ my bbh however this place was a hidden gem for me. Broth was rich, flavorful with a nice kick/spice to it. Big size portion and generous on the meat. After one bite,I couldn't stop eating. My husband ended up getting the veggie banh mi sandwich. And you get the option of adding an egg with it which he ended up choosing. He said the veggie sandwich was super flavorful and would recommend to anyone that's vegetarian/vegan. Service: The lady greeted us with warmth, kindness and even sent us a prayer before our meal. I can't explain the feeling of outstanding service but if you want to feel welcomed, this is the place! Ambiance: This place has the cutest decor inside and when we walked in, jazz music was playing. Also very IG worthy for ambiance. I will be for sure coming back if I'm ever in the area!!

An early brunch/lunch visit today, 4/25/26, at 10:30 AM local time. My wife, my 2-year old son and…read moreI sat at a table by the window. There were a few people picking up at the time we entered, but nobody else dining in. When one of the servers came with our cold waters, we placed our food order right away with her. We got two orders of the Pork Patty Spring Rolls, a Kids Meatball Pho, a Combination Pho, a Grilled Chicken Noodle Bowl and a Vietnamese Pancake. After about 5 minutes, we got the Pork Patty Spring Rolls. Every single time we order them, they taste so good!!! Hits the spot whenever we visit this restaurant. Probably our favorite dish, actually. After we devoured the Spring Rolls, our entrees came out - Combination Pho and the Kids Meatball Pho. Then a few minutes later, the Grilled Chicken Noodle Bowl came out. I normally like to pour some Sriracha and Hoisin Sauce into my Noodle Bowl along with the sauce it originally comes with. Mixing everything in all of that makes it that much more flavorful for me! Enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, the food and the service. The Pho broth seemed a little bland and not seasoned as well as before. Other than that, all of the other food items were tasty and to our liking. The restaurant itself has ample amount of space to sit at since there are plenty of seating and tables available. Parking outside is good, there are plenty of spaces to park at as well. There used to be a Big 5 Sporting Goods store, but since that's gone, parking hasn't been an issue at all. They have pretty decent Vietnamese food for reasonable prices and adequate portions.

Upon arrival on the rainy day i was offered water or warm tea and opted for both. Nothing better than that combo for me. Ordered my usual... Pho with rare steak, tripe, tendon and added meatballs. Broth is flavorful, as with anything you make it how you want after the initial taste and i only add limes and chili oil with the added basil. Nothing else. Fun fact: sriracha and hoisin are meant to be on the side to dip in, not poor into the broth. Also what makes me come back here is the Pork Patty Spring Rolls. The added crispy crunch on the inside makes these next level with the dark Romaine and just enough noodles to not overwhelm them like other places. A little added tunes whether traditional or not would be great. Or maybe the sound from the TVs playing food videos from around Vietnam would be cool. The silence was actually a could change up with the air conditioning and sound from the kitchen cooking. Great experience and glad i finally got to come in here!

Everything was super fresh and flavorful, and the portion was really fulfilling. Special shoutout to whoever grilled that chicken, you know what's up.

Attentive, never overbearing. Check this spot out! Overall: 5/5

Came to 3 Bros for the first time as we drove by a week ago and noticed their location which isn't…read moreeasy as you can just drive on by as it blends into the clutter of 1st Ave and 146th on the west side. But as you walk in the door 3 Bros is an oasis as the atmosphere, tables and basically everything is exceptional. We were quickly met and offered a table asked if we want water or hot tea. Perfect service and the food choices, quality and quantities is perfect too. Each dish was presented well, fresh ingredients and 3 Bros exceeded my expectations. A highlight was the picked sliced jalapeños that was great as a complement to spice up my meal. An interesting cultural difference here is the informality and efficiency. Service is relaxed, and they don't want to rush you - you can sit as long as you like. Therefore the cultural difference is you pay at the counter when you're ready to leave. It's one of those small cultural differences that feels a bit different at first but quickly becomes normal. This was our first experience here for a lunch and we definitely will be coming back.

It seemed like BBH broth and regular pho broth was mixed to create a hybrid that seemed almost...thin.

Probably one of the best pieces of meat I've had in a BBH and the main reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 3. Service was good and I appreciated they left the water container for my personal use.

My friends, boyfriend and I just got done completing an escape room and we were wanting to grab…read moresomething to eat together but it was 9:30pm so a lot of places were closing. Luckily I saw Pho T & L was open and I've had this place saved for a while so this was the best timing to try them out. We arrived and it was pretty busy and we weren't sure if we seated ourselves or someone else seats us as it took a few minutes for us to get noticed. After a little of standing awkwardly near the entrance, someone noticed us and motioned us to sit near the check out area which you do need to go up and pay rather than wait for someone to drop off a check. We were given waters and menus and given a decent amount of time to decide what we wanted. My friends got a lemonade with tea, Thai tea, shaking beef and combo vermicelli while my boyfriend got the shaking beef and egg rolls and I got the Bun Bo Hue and spring rolls. My boyfriend got his egg rolls and I didn't get my spring rolls until after everyone's' order came in so I have a feeling that the employee who took our order forgot or the kitchen forgot. There was no apology or anything for it either. I got my food first, after several minutes the shaking beef came out and after another a while my friend got his vermicelli bowl. Luckily we weren't pressed for time but it made it awkward as we didn't get our food at the same time and it took a bit to get them. I am a slow eater so I guess it worked out that I got mine first but I also didn't receive my spring rolls until I brought it up once we received everything else. The food was phenomenal and our friends said their drinks were perfect too. I did enjoy my Bun Bo Hue, though I did make it a bit more spicier with their chili oil. They have plenty of tables and chairs to accommodate all party sizes. They do have a bathroom but you have to go through a long, scary hallway to get to it. The tables have probably the cutest container for their chili oil but I appreciate that they have napkins, sriracha, hoisin, and utensils on the table. The employees don't really check in often and they didn't really come by to fill our waters until we were down with our meal. The service was also pretty much non-existent, it wasn't rude but just felt rushed and cold.

My order here will forever be the bun bo hue. It's the best one I've had, and I've had a lot. The broth has so much depth to it, and the flavor is SO GOOD. I love that their bun bo hue has a lot of sate in it, and doesn't taste just like a clear broth that some restaurants serve. It even comes with the standard pork hock and pork blood, I know a lot of restaurants may omit that. I can't recommend it enough, it's a must try!! It is a little on the spicy side though if you're sensitive to it, but it was perfect for me. The service here is quick, although the restaurant itself is a bit small. I never had to wait for long though. I'll definitely be back during my annual Seattle trip!
