In a strip mall with Target. The Google maps didn't precisely lead me there so in the target parking lot it is on the east side north of what used to be hobby lobby. I had beef pho. Flavors were good but it was a little skinny on product. See photo, it was mainly noodles broth and beef. I added the basil and bean sprouts, but left out the jaleps. Flavors were good. Seems like homemade broth from bone stock, etc. side sauce choices were good. I went with the sambal like paste and it had great depth of flavor. Service was initially fast and food arrived quickly.ni was then ignored though. There were 4-5 tables with guests..my server disappeared in the back and didn't return. No check left and I had to knock on the kitchen door to get her to come out so I could pay. Pretty spicy food and I ran out of water,.so, service, meh. Nice exterior and interior space. Clean and well maintained. Out the door with tax and tip for about $20 for a large beef sausage pho. Recommend for the easy access (plenty of parking) and good quality. read more

Very ordinary looking storefront in the Tacoma Target strip mall. However, the food and service were excellent! We were first seated at a table but the staff asked if we wanted to move to a booth once another party left. The booth was much more cozy and comfortable. Drinks were refilled often and food came out hot and quick. I got the regular size combo pho and it was delicious. Noodles were elastic and not crumbling. Good portion of meats. Lots of chilis at the table (3 containers) in addition to the standard sriracha and hoisin. Lots of bean sprouts and thai basil, just how I like it! Not sure why I didn't come here more often when I lived close by. read more

Needed to find something close to campus that my daughter could go to if she had a craving for some of her favorite foods while away from home. This place turned out better than we had expected. Very generous portions. Food was actually pretty good, considering we weren't in an area densely populated by Asians. read more

Ordered online but they didn't follow directions to slice or add spice to the sandwich which it gave me an option to add... also the lady at the counter was not very friendly & seemed stressed... not great for 1st impression. Would not recommend if service is a big part of your experience. Also there is a HAIR in my sandwich. Had to update this review after posting... 0/10 experience after that read more

Pho Garden - Hair in food. First time here. - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Ordered online. When I got to Pho Garden, the lady at the desk said they are out of the meat I purchased in one of the soups. I purchased oxtail, so it was three dollars more. I also got the fried platter so she said she would compensate with one additional hot wing. They hadn't even started my order. I sat for ten minutes, and she came out and said they were out of hot wings, so she would compensate with an extra tempura. I sat for 20 additional minutes while they cooked the food. This all could have been alleviated ahead of time if she called me when she knew my order would require adjustments. She didn't do that because she said she was busy, so I sat for 30 minutes and received one additional tempura shrimp for my convenience. This place is all about penny pinching. High prices and lack of care for online customers. The pho wasn't really that good either. Never going back. read more

Just ordered for a delivery tonight. The quality of the food was not good. I ordered the PHO with fatty flank & tendon. As soon as I opened the container, it had an off smell. The tendon looked good but I'm not taking any chances of getting food poisoning from the fatty flank's odor. It had a pungent ammonia smell. The bean sprouts were not fresh and had a milky look. Sad. The broth was very bland. When warming up, used a pho broth cheat, to get any flavor. This place used to be REALLY GOOD. What happened?? read more

Always good food here! I wonder if the other place has made it slower here. Service was spot on in the afternoon 5pm from work. I ordered the Bahn Mi with no jalepenos and extra vegis. Those are so nice and crispy!! Love em. Hubby had the pork chops. And wow... they gave him 3 pork chops nicely sweetened with that charsu flavor. The salad dressing standard with mayo, vinegar and sugar yum. Rice is jasmine tastes like he said. We were the only ones in here today and had all his attention! Till next time. read more

The pho is amazing!! The service is great and the restaurant is clean. The staff are wonderful!!

Random stop OTW down from Seattle to Portland, and my wife and I were craving something warm. They seem really understaffed as there was only one gentlemen serving, taking orders, and working the register. That being said the interior was still relatively clean all things considered. Food was decent and relatively well priced. I had their Combination Rice plate which was a nice portion of chicken and pork, which were grilled and flavored well. My wife had their classic Pho which she also said was decent and a huge portion as well. The most exciting part for me was the sides as they had oyster sauce, soy sauce, as well as several types of garlic chili oils. read more

Yeah I will admit the place is nice and clean but guaaawwq damn there pho is over priced for what? It's alight tbh I've had better ng] but they shouldn't be lying online about there prices to make people come in then your just there like a dumbass thinking it's gonna be a Isht price when it's not like who's making the pho Gordon Ramsay?

Solid pho place! I ordered here to go using door dash and my food was hot and ready to go at the estimated time. Though brief, my interaction with the worker was pleasant. Everything tasted great. The broth is what makes the pho, and the broth tasted amazingly. Super flavorful. Came with a generous serving of steak and meatballs as well. Would definitely come back. read more

Sweet staff. Near Target so convenient. Healthy choices but way too much oil + over cooked for me. I wish restaurants had bio safe to go containers and NOT styrofoam! I'll try Pho next time. read more

There used to be a Subway sandwich shop location in this space but I'm so glad they closed and Pho Garden moved in. Such a huge improvement! I've had my sights on this restaurant for a while but don't particularly want pho during the summer. I thought it would be a good idea to explore their Banh Mi options and Vermicelli bowl options. So glad that we explored that! The sandwiches were excellent and we split a Vermicelli bowl which was so good! The ingredients were so very fresh and well done on the service! Definitely returning in the colder months to explore the pho options! read more

Our Favorite Pho Place! It's a very clean & cozy restaurant. The food is so yummy! They are very friendly. We Love this Spot!

Wow, really really great pho restaurant! We had a kids chicken pho, pho tai and house pho. We also had shrimp spring rolls and potstickers. The Thai tea and bubble tea were great! I really enjoyed the variety of hot add-in options for my pho. This restaurant was clean, organized and the staff member was so kind and professional. She provided great service! My lost star is because this place is expensive compared to others. No military discount, $8 for a kids bowl and $6.15 for a bubble tea is pricey. I won't be back soon for this reason but if you're ready to pay come enjoy it! read more

Pho Garden - Cashew chicken - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Very friendly staff. Door dash spilled half of my pho the night before. What was left was so good I had to go back for pho the next day. After I completed my meal and paid, I was casually talking to the server and told her what happened. She was sooo apologetic. She insisted I take a pho to go. The pho was sooo yummy I couldn't say no plus she was deeply sorry and insistent in hopes the make my experience right. I have been back several times since for beef, veggie and chicken ph. In my opinion the broth is so flavorful and rich so good! Yum read more

I got the special beef back ribs pho. It was delicious! I'm very particular with pho because I've had it a lot. I have had really good pho in restaurants and have had really good homemade pho so it takes a lot to impress me. I would eat this again, and I'm definitely adding beef back ribs to my pho. The meat was tender and the broth was pretty good. The service was excellent and the place was tidy. They came and asked if I needed anything a few times instead of having to flag someone down for a water refill. Definitely on my list to revisit. read more

Pho Garden - a plate of rice and vegetables - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Delicious pho and quality ingredients. First time here, but probably my go to now. Better than Pho 38th and much more pleasant atmosphere.

I called in today to place a to-go order after seeing on Pho Garden's website offering 20% off call in orders. When I called in the restaurant claimed the offer stopped yesterday yet your website says it's still valid. To not honor discounts posted on your websites landing page is bad business ethics. I still ordered the food so I'll revise this review after I eat it but as a business I give it a 1 Star. I'll give a food review later. Either way probably won't be back out of principle. UPDATE: I got the chicken fried rice. It was 2.2/5.0 in my opinion but I'm not a professional food critic. ‍ read more

Pho Garden - 20% off not valid ????? - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Been here a couple times, always to go. Pho has been excellent every time and so has the banh mi, very delicious and juicy, not dry like a lot of places. Customer service is always good. Highly recommend. read more

We randomly walked into this place and had no idea what to expect. At first notice the service was really slow. Probably one of the slower pho spots I have ever been to, but the lady running the front was doing everything. Cashier, taking orders, cleaning tables, handling the phone and handling take out orders. It was a lot for one person. She definitely made up for the slow service by providing excellent service. A pair of scissors were provided since I had kids to cut the noodles without us asking. The kids were given cups of water in bubble tea style cups (they loved it). The portions of the XL were huge. It was the most I have seen and it was well worth it. When my order was taken wrong, the lady apologized and let us keep the order plus added additional meatballs (my original order). This spot is great for families. The flavor was overall decent. The iced coffee was just ok. read more

After many delicious meals from Pho Garden, something has changed. We ordered dishes tonight that we've had several times - lemongrass tofu, the grilled pork plate, and an exotic passion drink. The lemongrass tofu has a different sauce, and I'd be surprised if lemongrass was an ingredient at all. The grilled pork had a pretty high proportion of fat to meat. Both dishes were served with a sad salad, drenched in some kind of cream dressing. Neither were worth the elevated price that Pho Garden charges. We're bummed, since this has been a little gem that we really enjoyed many times. The same dishes are available for higher quality, and better prices elsewhere. If Pho Garden is convenient for you, go for it. Otherwise, it's probably not worth going out of your way. read more

Pho Garden - P2. BEEF STEAK PHO POT STICKERS (6 PIECES) 6.95 (Promotional Deal) - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

This jewel is nestled in the Target complex off highway 16. 3202 south 23rd street in Tacoma. It sits between bath and body works and Sally's beauty supply. I'm so happy we found this hidden gem. Our food was so delicious and very authentic Vietnamese. We have had difficulty finding great pho places. They have tons on mediocre pho places. This is not one!! My husband who is Asian finds this the best he's had and I agree. It's all about the broth. Pho Garden is generous in its servings. I had the cashew stir fry and it will go down in history of one of my favorites. The people who work here are extremely sweet and make you feel welcome. Our experience was fantastic! If you're looking for a great pho place that not only serves the best Pho but lots of other dishes and Ban Mai sandwiches also. I will be back!! Thank you Pho Garden! So happy we came by! read more

Delivery. Arrived hot!! And fast!! If I had transport I wouldn't pay the increased menu prices and I'd pickup. But if you need delivery--yes. Solid quality pho. Good broth, a little strong; that's perfect. Just got the basics: rare beef pho and grilled pork noodle salad. Beef arrived separate and raw (YEAY!!!!!) And broth hot enough to cook it. Not enough basil or cilantro though. Delicious pork. I'd actually give 5 stars, except for the not shredded, white parts of iceberg lettuce in the noodle bowl. And a LOT of iceberg in general. That's a first for me and I love my noodle salads. However, definitely will get takeout if I'm nearby, and say no lettuce in the noodles. read more

this is probably the best pho I've ever had in my life, the soup is mad good and the beef is actually fire, more ppl need to come here.

I walked in not expecting anything out of the ordinary, it is in a strip mall, but what a cute little shop! The interior smelled like lemon grass and was very clean. I got a regular shrimp pho and my parents split a regular chicken pho. We also shared spring rolls. My pho was very flavorful with a generous amount of shrimp and noodles. The spring rolls tasted very fresh and did not have too much basil, which is perfect for me. The server was pleasant but obviously busy as it appeared to be only her in the front of house. read more

Always the place we go back to! Nothing compares and the location is great. It's the gold standard for Tacoma Pho!
