    Chicken banh mi sandwich
    Tasha L.

    My husband loves Pho and was craving it so after some googling, we found this place. We were greeted and seated immediately. We ordered 2 coke zeros, a bowl of pho and a chicken banh mi sandwich. Our food arrived rather quickly snd it tasted amazing! The food was well worth the price as well! Definitely try this place! We highly recommend it

    Pho Ever has really good food -- the flavors are solid and it always hits when you're craving. That being said, I really wish the service was better. Every time I go, I feel kind of rushed, which takes away from the experience a bit. I get that it can be busy, but it would be nice to not feel hurried while eating. Food-wise, no complaints. Just hoping the service improves because it would make a big difference.

    Beef rice dish with egg roll and prawn

    I was craving a Viet rice dish and I wanted to have their grilled pork again! It was pretty good. Pork was flavorful and the portioning is fair. The homemade fish sauce was pretty good as well. I also had their broth and it was only $2. Broth was tasty and comforting. The ambiance is okay. Just a place to enjoy from good Vietnamese food. Service is okay. The food didn't take long to make. There are some employees who aren't so attentive and nice, which continues to be a thing here.

    14. Phở Tái (Steak Noodle Soup)
    Jinny C.

    Casual neighborhood joint with an extensive menu. I got the steak pho, which had a deep broth, more aromatic than a lot of other places. Seemed very authentic. My family ordered phos with more variety of meat cuts but found that there wasn't a good balance in the different types of meat in the bowl. We also ordered the spring rolls, which were very fresh.

    Gotta say pretty spot on for the rating of this place. BUT, that being said, this is one of my favorite dive pho places on the east side. The service is pretty meh. They aren't amazing nor are they bad. They will take your order and bring you your food but that's about it. The inside is, well looks like diver restaurant so don't expect much. The dishes, well I'm here for the pho and the Poh is good! The spring roll and sauce is great! The grilled meat over noodles is spot on. These dishes all have great flavor and are one of my favorite places. But then there's stuff like the grilled calamari which is very meh. So if you are coming here. Know what to order and they will be great. I mean look at that perfectly cooled pho meat!

    I visit Seattle once a year and try to stop by when I can since my friend lives nearby. The pho is still very solid here. I like that the broth is very tasty and flavorful. It's a simple but comforting dish. They give you a ton of noodles and they are cooked well. I got a small steak and beef ball. The meat was tasty. The small size I didn't feel like they gave a ton of meat but maybe I was hungry today.

    I have been looking for a new go to pho place since my favorite got torn down in Bellevue for new Amazon buildings. This place is close. I got the large steak pho and fresh rolls. The portion sizes are very generous...there was a ton of steak in my soup. The fresh rolls were good...the peanut sauce with them lacked a little flavor but was fine. The food came out very quickly, but we had to ask 3 times to get a to go box. Vibes are exactly as you'd expect a standard pho place to be...however, the floors were extremely slippery. I almost fell three times. Will definitely come back!

    The atmosphere was nice and beef noodle soup, all beef number 12. Was really good! Tendon, brisket and steak. It took 5 minutes so they normally keep the soup in a pot in the morning when they open at 10 so it normally is already prepared.

    Super bowl
    Hui-yu Y.

    - popular lunch spot - This is our to-go place for pho since it's the closest to our place. They are usually packed for lunch, but dinner is okay. Tons of people who work around here eat lunch here regularly. My husband usually gets the super bowl with all sorts of random parts from the cow (tripe, tendon, you name it), and I usually get the house special bun (vermicelli salad). Today I got a rice dish #61 (beef short rib, a shrimp skewers with 3 shrimps, and an egg roll). It comes with some pickled radish and carrots that you usually see in the Vietnamese sandwich, two pieces of raw cucumber and a lettuce salad with creamy dressing. Their grilled meat usually tastes good, but the portion has been decreasing over the years due to inflation. Both the super bowl and my rice dish was $18.95, so after tip it's almost $50 for 2 for lunch, which is quite a bit. One thing I really dislike about this place is the seating. If you sit on either side of the restaurant in the booth-like chairs, you'll end up sharing the back of your seat with a stranger. Many people are unaware and make large movements, which you can feel even if you're not leaning against the seat. This creates a lot of unnecessary discomfort, especially since the seats are quite old and move easily. I'd recommend sitting in the middle instead, where there are individual chairs. PS. The Vietnamese coffee is good here, but they give you tons of ice like other places. We also stopped buying it after they raised from price from $3.5 or $4 (medium cup) to $6.5 (large cup) due to the inflation.

    Michelle C.

    Love this place! Bun Bo Hue is my favorite and their fried chicken wings are spot on as well! I like to order both so I have a takeaway. Popular spot, you can tell during the week around lunch time! Yum! Favorite pho spot around Redmond/Bellevue

    First day of the year deserves noodle soup, and the pho broth from "Pho Ever" was some of the best, most balanced beef broth I've had: maybe it's because it's the new year, or because it is just so wet and chilly here in the Seattle area that a good broth suddenly becomes legendary (at least in my mind). My daughter, her husband, and I came for a meal during dinner, and it was fairly crowded (always a good sign even on a holiday). We got seated right away with tap water, and each of us got a laminated book with a lot of classic Vietnamese choices. Each of chose a different variation of beef noodle soup. I like mine with all the meats, and they did have a version called 'Special Noodle Soup" consisting of steak, brisket, flank, tendon, tripe, and meat ball. It came in two sizes: Small ($15.95) and Large ($16.95)...for that price difference, of course, I got the large...but in reality they are very similar in size. All the soups are the same price (except for Ox Tail which is more). This is on the higher end for pho, so my expectations immediately were elevated. The accompaniments came first, and consisted just of raw bean sprouts, a fresh sprig of Thai basil, lime wedge, and a couple of jalapeno slices. Nothing too fancy, but very fresh. The soup came next, so dunked the basil and bean sprouts and waited a bit. They use red onion instead of the usual white. The soup wasn't served hot enough: the basil didn't wilt/curdle and the raw eye of round steak stayed very rare for quite a long time. But this was a good thing in that it stayed very tender, though folks who like their beef well-done wouldn't have liked it. It also did come with quite a lot of other meat, including thin chunks of tripe and large cuts of tendon. Just one sliver of meatball, and it was good, though wish there were more. Service was OK, and the prices are higher than others. But what really made the bowl (and the visit) was the broth. Just enough fat and gelatin from the beef bone and connective tissues, for a really good mouth feel, but still keeping the broth very clean (in appearance and taste), but at the same time, having enough flavor for me to drink it straight from the bowl even after I had fished out all the noodles and proteins. It was that good.

    Blackened vs not blackened $18.99 keto choice ....

    Great energy in this place! The staff is efficient, and the food comes out with plenty of satisfying carbs and fresh shrimp. I looked for more vegetables in my dish and ended up swapping the vermicelli for iceberg lettuce with large julienned cucumbers, sprouts, and crunchy chopped peanuts, all tossed with a light sweet-and-sour dressing. The base price was $18.99, or just over $25 with gratuity, for the grilled chicken breast. I know I'm the exception, but as a middle-aged diner, if I'm eating food that's blackened by fire or high heat, I really want a generous serving of antioxidant-rich vegetables--something like steamed broccoli--to go with it. It took about half an hour, but they did eventually replace my large chicken skewer so it wasn't charred. For younger folks or anyone with a hearty appetite, this is an easy spot to enjoy every day. It's a good choice overall. My wife had the lo mein with shrimp, and hers was fresh and tasty as well.

    Went on a Friday for a late lunch with the family. Got seated quickly which is greatly appreciated when eating with kids. Ordered a large pho, short rib plate, grilled pork banh mi and Vietnamese coffee. The pho was ok, broth very light with not as much flavor as we're accustomed to. The pork banh mi and short rib plate were delicious. We will definitely return for those again in the future. The Vietnamese coffee was unfortunately not good at all. It came out the color of oat milk and tasted like all condensed milk. We attempted to ask for more coffee inside to explain the overly sweet taste.

This was on a Friday night at almost 6pm and my friend and I came in to a nearly empty interior that filled up throughout our stay. Is it just dinnertime that time or were my friend and I bringing in the crowds? You'll enjoy a very clean and well-kept restaurant with clean tables and chairs, with lighting that's very little but lights up the whole place well. Menu has a lot of offerings (both regular and vegetarian) but since it's dinnertime I decided on a rice dish as usual. I got their beef short ribs rice dish, which has their usual marinated short ribs with a fried egg and veggies. I actually liked how they offered their rice in a separate bowl, and everything else on one plate... which means the meat almost covered my whole plate! By the way, my friend got their grilled pork chop rice dish, and the meat also almost completely covered his plate. Both our meats were marinated so well and held in so much flavor, and came off their bones easily. We both agreed the grilled beef short rib dish I ordered was the winner because of the bolder and more defined marinated taste of the meat. I've tried so many Vietnamese restaurants and almost exclusively get their beef short ribs rice on the first visits of them, but this is the first time I've seen meat portions this huge for a rice dish. I'm thinking of coming back here for another visit even if I have to deal with the tight parking plaza this place is close to.

I went with their Classsic Vermicilli bowl which comes with pork, shrimp, a tiny egg rolls, noodles and cucumbers. It was delicious the pork was very tasty and the shrimp were seasoned perfectly. The restaurant is large and definitely a spot for families both small and big. I only noticed a few to go orders. Great spot for Vietnamese food if you happen to find yourself in Bellevue.

I don't have any notes for ambiance. Parking is available in the same plaza, but there isn't much - a lot are reserved for specific businesses between specific hours, so be careful not to park in an open business if you intend to eat here!

Unfortunately, we didn't see it until after ordering so paid a bit extra. Pork bone broth is pretty average, a safe choice but nothing special over here. However, their tomato broth is one of the richest around, rich and umami. Luckily everyone gets their own pot which is essentially a cost per person, before ordering menu items. All the beef is so tasty, tender, and perfectly fatty. Great seafood (especially the shrimp paste / shrimp pate).
