    One of the best and low-key pho shops in San Antonio! Texas style brisket is used instead of the traditional thinly sliced and high marbled brisket and I am here for it. The pho was beefy, piping hot, and hits the spot.

    True whole in the wall deliciousness right here! I was around this area and was looking for some delicious pho. It was a little early in the day and Pho Fresh was the only pho place open at that time. They are located in a small plaza right on the back side of San Antonio College. The place itself is not the most inviting, but the smell in the air from all their delicious food is amazing. For my first time I decided to go with Pho Ga (chicken pho). The broth was absolutely perfection and exactly what I was looking for. It came with all the usual sides and they did not skimp on the noodles. Overall it was an amazing pho and exactly what I was looking for. I can't wait to come back again and try some of the other dishes people have been raving about on their reviews.

    Ordered the brisket pho for pickup and it was a 10/10. So much food, great flavor, just amazing!

    10/10 great flavor! And so much in their to go orders. I didn't expect for there to be so much meat and sides to go into my pho.

    Chicken Pad Thai
    Vanessa C.

    This was my first time here. But definitely not my last! This is a great mom and pop place. The vermicelli and pad Thai were delicious! You walk up and order at the counter. We got water and it is serve yourself. As soon as we sat down our lunch was out. The beef lemongrass vermicelli was super flavorful! The place is small and it was hot outside but they did a great job at having fans everywhere to circulate the air so it wasn't a problem! Great option for lunch when you don't have a lot of time. And the staff was super nice!

    Bad food, not like Vietnamese or even Asian taste. The service attitude was not good when we ordered and asked about parking
    The N.

    Items such as spoons are dusty and other items such as tables and chairs are dusty and a bit old, Service attitude was not good when we asked about parking and ordering food Especially the taste of the food is really bad if you want to find an Asian dish to eat because the taste is not like Vietnamese or even Asian at all.

    Spring rolls

    I eat at this restaurant at least once a week and I have never been disappointed by either by the Chinese or Vietnamese food. I love their Bun bowls. I cook them and I have eaten bun in many restaurants all over Texas and theirs is by far the best. The owners marinate their meat for the bowls with lemon grass and it is a little spicy but not too much. Also, the spring rolls are the bomb and just like the ones at Vietnam Restaurant on Broadway, only the parking is better. Several places in town do not use rice paper but they roll their spring rolls with it. It makes their's wonderfully crispy. The restaurant is small and the patrons are college students and locals who are very friendly. This place is a hidden gem. The owners are wonderful, hard working, and provide excellent service. Please support this local business. My hope is that they can eventually open a larger location because their food is so good. I highly recommend this restaurant because of the quality and authenticity of their food.

    Wow - awesome new spot! This place just opened near me so had to check it out. Not a lot of Vietnamese places in Tobin Hill area so was thrilled that this new one opened. Cute little spot in behind the Subway off Main right by San Antonio College. Clean and bright inside. I ordered #40 beef lemongrass banh mi, so good! The beef is tender, the bun fresh and perfectly toasted. Fresh veggies on it too. Really impressed with the quality. And it came with crinkle cut fries too, a pleasant surprise. And then 3 sauces as well. Will definitely be back! Want to try the bun/vermicelli next.

    #38 bbq pork bahn mi w/o cilantro

    Glad I found this place tucked behind SAC. The parking is bad but if you know anything about Main Street, that's a given. I called in an order for #38 bbq pork bahn mi and mango boba. The sammich was great! Pork seemed to be marinated and seasoned with other herbs including fresh ginger. Meat was cut/sliced for the perfect bite. You don't have to struggle with eating. The bread was soft and crispy. The boba was also tasty. Pricey but tasty. All in all I would definitely go back and try other options on the menu.

I ordered the crispy dumplings (pork) and spring rolls as appetizers, and the spicy noodle soup as my entree. My server came to take my order, and brought me the items as they were ready. The entree came out before the appetizers. The spicy noodle soup was spicy (as named) and it was good, but it was incredibly oily and the noodles were overcooked, so I didn't eat much of it. I would definitely recommend ordering this with rice, or taking it home and making your own. The dumplings and spring rolls were crispy, but nothing special. I did like the duck sauce they had -- I would have asked my server for more of it, but she was busy in the back or something, not sure. I wish she would've checked in on me a bit more during the visit so I could have gotten more napkins and sauce. The service was alright. I wish I would've gotten checked on a little bit more, but she was nice and helped me pack my noodles to go. Overall, this spot wasn't terrible, but if I had to choose, I'd probably try another place.

Each of the lunch specials come with crab rangoon, egg roll and soup (I chose egg drop soup). We had the Shrimp and Vegetables, Sesame Chicken, and Triple Delight.

We noticed the decor had changed (yes, I said it had been many years) and it was quite nice! We were seated promptly and placed our drink order (tea came with lunch). We ordered Rangoon as a starter. The lunch specials came with soup and egg roll, and fried rice. DH ordered his litmus test dish for American style Chinese- General Tso chicken. The portion was generous. The sauce was tasty. The chicken pieces tasted like your average frozen nuggets tossed in sauce. It's that familiar "seasoning" to the chicken and coating- iykyk. Not bad at all, just not the best. He enjoyed his egg drop soup. I opted for Hunan Beef. The sauce was thicker than I prefer, with an almost gelatinous consistency. The hot and sour soup was nice, a little more sour than hot. We both thought the fried rice that came with lunch was a little bland. Maybe the entree version is better? Each special was under $10, and it's definitely a great value.

Walked in and waited for a few minutes before someone handed us menus and told us to sit wherever. Just handed us menus...in a kind of "just go sit down kinda way". Not real friendly. The appetizer we ordered (veggie steamed dumplings) came out with one less dumpling than promised on the menu. My wife's noodles were nothing special, as was my spicy/numbing pot. I felt my pot in particular, was over-loaded with huge chunks of veggies that could have been better chopped as to be more manageable. More chicken and beef in that chicken and beef pot, too, please ... The person waiting on us, if you could call it that, was not personable and could not have cared less about interacting. His drive by meal drop-offs were the epitome of antisocial. Probably won't return.

I have been to this restaurant several times which I did like. It rank higher than the other few places available in San Antonio.

It gives a positive sign about the restaurant itself The portions are huge! I ordered the whole chicken? Sichuan style. I asked if it is the whole chicken I don't know if language barrier lol she did the sign of no no with her hand. It is actually maybe equal to 2 chickens! Not complaining! I was very happy with it!
