Came in at about 7:10pm, they do close at 8pm. From the time we got in, it just seemed as if they wished we didn't come and give them our business as it was 50minutes before closing. Waiters were both rude and had a real bad attitude. It was almost like we were bothering them by being there. Ordered our food despite having the feeling of they didn't want us there. Ordered the bbq pork plate, chicken pad Thai, and sweet and sour chicken and egg rolls. Pork was under cooked (pink on inside), pad Thai noodle was so watery that the sauce diluted with the water from I guess boiling the noodles, sweet and sour chicken.... I have no good words. Egg rolls were the only thing that was great, oh and the Thai tea was good too. This place really missed the mark, I will blame it on going close to 8pm. As for the service, it really needs some work from the 2 gentlemen. Ambiance lots of seating. read more

Honestly better portions than I'm used to. Taste and ambiance were pretty standard, but pleased with the value because the volume of food is respectable. Easy parking in a shared plaza. Fresh Spring Roll - huge spring roll with an extra piece of cha siu which adds to the overall volume and taste. Tasty peanut sauce which is pretty addicting. I did think the wrap itself was pretty thick though, so a bit tougher to bite through but holds shape very well. Pho Nam - wasn't feeling the standard fancy order of Pho Dac Biet, so settled on just brisket. I was impressed by the sheer amount of meat. Pho Golden makes many pho places across the water look like they're skimping. Besides that, everything was standard--rich broth, heart noodles, and fresh vegetables! read more

The pho does not have MSG so I already give it a good rating because of that. Service was quick except getting the lemonade took a long time. We almost finished our meals before we got the lemonade. The pho steak and tendon was good except they only gave one piece of tendon, which was tender. But, one piece?! Cmon.... read more

Delicious beef and brisket pho. Food arrived at the table quickly and hot. Great service. Clean environment.

Very friendly service and the bubble tea was good. I got a Thai tea with boba added, and while it's a little sweet, it's pretty good. Recommend. read more

Pho Golden - Thai ice tea, add boba. - Vietnamese Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

We've had food from here three times now since dropping in. It's not usually busy, and it's actually pretty tasty. The pho is good, the spring rolls and dumplings are too. I had a plate that I thought would be different that was good once I got over what my expectations were lol. I feel like they give a generous portion for kids size which can be seen in the pics as chicken, rice, and lettuce as well. And service is quick; if you're in a hurry, you can order for pick up and food is usually ready within 15 mins. read more

Had Pho here a couple years back and it was good. This time: Ordered chow mein, a couple appetizers and a Bahn Mi. Portal in the Bahn Mi was like eating jerky. No sauce or flavor. Chow mein was like rubber bands drenched in some odd sweet soy sauce something. Just not great. read more

This rating is for Pad Thai. Truly awful. Sauce too sweet and no tamarind flavor. Chicken is tiny pieces of dried jerky. Stick to the Pho. read more

Pho Golden - Vietnamese Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

as a pho connoisseur the pho was actually awful.... worst pho I have ever had the broth had no flavor and tastes like tap water so bad that my grandma is currently trying to add chicken bullion to it to make it taste better read more

We are really disappointed by this place. We went to it because we were so hungry after getting our nails done and wanted to help another local business. Unfortunately the pad Thai was not good at all. It was so liquify it didn't even adhere to the rice noodles and it basically just tasted like brown sugar. The stir fry is way over priced for the absolutely tiny amount of protein they give you and it wasn't well seasoned or flavored either. I also got a taro boba.... It completely lacked flavor too. They definitely need to add another scoop of powder. The staff and the owners were super sweet and honestly their pho did look great and there was a few groups of people here eating the pho, so maybe stick to that if you come. I wouldn't say dont come here, just go for the pho not the dishes. read more

Wow! Get your pho fix satisfied here! What an INSANE amount of food for a low price! I was in the mood for a fight and decided to try this restaurant based on previous good reviews. I certainly was not disappointed! i ordered a large #14 house special Pho because I figured that would be a good sampler of all they provide in a Pho. For just under $14 I received over 4 1/2 pounds of Pho. There is a generous samples of various meats, the noodles, the vegetables and also some jalapeños and limes. They also provided packets of Sriracha and Mongolian sauce.The broth was delicious and not salty. Altogether there is enough for two people or more. The staff is super friendly and the wait time was less than 10 minutes. I would like to try dining in there sometime because it seem comfortable and casual. They also seem to turn a lot of food because I saw that there were a lot of pick up orders ready to go. Bottom line is this place deserves three thumbs up! The prices are fair and the amount of food that you get is twice as much as other pho restaurants in the Gig Harbor or Port Orchard area. I highly recommend stopping by and getting your Pho fix here And I'll be back to try more items on the menu! read more

Great spot for pho if you are craving for them. I usually get pho on rainy/cold chilly day. Came here on a late Sunday afternoon, the place wasn't busy so we got seated right away. This isn't the best pho place I been to but it's good. Me and my friend we both got pho. I got there all in one pho which contain a little of every different kind of meats. We have fried egg roll as our appetizer to share. It was alright. Everything was tasty, I will be back again. Good service and getting our food out fast as well. read more

Found hair in my food! Purchased take out sweet and sour chicken and found a long black hair wrapped around a piece of chicken. Disgusting

We went for lunch recently, really enjoyed everything. I had the Combo Chow Fun and Basil delight with shrimp. Lots of sauce in mine very little filler veggies (celery) and plenty of meat. My wife's dish had bourbon in the sauce. Very different, but interesting. Good service too. read more

Pho Golden - 44. Combo Chow Fun - Vietnamese Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

We have been coming to Pho Golden since they opened and will drive from the next town over to get bubble tea and fresh rolls from here. We decided to get take-out today, which was easy and quick from their website online ordering system. All was well and good until we were about halfway through our lunch meal and were eating the banh xeo (Vietnamese crepe). I noticed a dark chunk in the food and when I separated it out, I realized it was a fried cockroach. This was added protein I did not desire in my food, and an unfortunate end to our Father's Day lunch. read more

Don't forget to order the iced coffee!! ! Stop by and support this fantastic family owned restaurant in our community. read more

Absolutely awful. $15 chow mein that had hardly any noodles and the noodles were like little rubber bands with zero flavor, pad thai that was tiny and almost grey like wtf did they really dish this up and think that looked ok??? The broth for the pho tastes like nothing and the meat came already cooked and dry which it should be raw so it cooks fresh in the broth. I'm so upset that I picked this up and drove all the way home to feed my family and now have to go all the way back and try to get my money back. read more

Pho Golden - Vietnamese Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

While the staff were nice, I am sorry to report that the food was incredibly disappointing. It was our first time ordering from this restaurant, so we decided to try a few different items. The mini-dumplings tasted like they had been purchased from Trader Joe's and microwaved. The fresh rolls were bland and dry (though the peanut sauce did help somewhat). The Bahn Mi was bone dry, to the point that we just couldn't eat it. The fried rice was the best part of the meal, but even that was lacking in flavor, and the chicken in this dish (and the sandwich) were as tough as jerky. It was just not a pleasant eating experience, and we were incredibly disappointed, because we really enjoy quality Vietnamese food. Pro Tip: Maybe stick to the pho? We didn't try it, because it was just too warm for soup on the day we visited, but that seems to be the star of this show. read more

I would start with, don't get their thai food. Totally different. There was not a taste of pad thai. Totally sweet and slimy. But i get it, we were not surprised since normally, you would not get a very different cuisine from a vietnamese restaurant. BUT, their PHO and EGG ROLLS are superb!! I would say it really is authentic. Very good flavor. The broth is amazing. It is indeed a hidden gem. So i'm totally giving 4 outta 5 read more

I just ordered one pad thai and a Thai boba tea extra boba for take out. I was handed the bag and noticed everything was drenched in sauce . As for the boba they charged me a for a normal sized drink and gave me a small cup of boba with a small amount of over cooked boba. read more

The food is always good here . I love the tofu clay pot , and my wife usually get the pho , but she got the curry this , it was good but not what she expected, more like peanut sweet curry, she will get the yellow curry next time. The service is always decent, would definitely be back read more

Always our favorite Pho place. Glad to see them in PO now to make it easier for us. Have not had a bad meal yet.

I really enjoy their Pho. Super good broth, traditional and delicious! Portions are great, it is truly filling and satisfying. Service is great, genuine, clearly they care about customer experience. Room for improvement: the noodles in the Pho are a bit bland, not quite soft enough. However since the broth is so good, it overpowers the noodle miss. Move to noodles 2.0 and this is 5 star Pho. The meet is good, lean, as it should be. Takeout packaging is great - the Pho stayed hot for an hour! Advice: don't try to Pad Thai. It misses the mark and if that's all I ordered, this would be a 2 star uplifted by the great service. If the Pad Thai can't evolve, better to remove from menu IMO. Conclusion: I love this place and will be back every time I am in the area. read more

Alright I'll be fully honest, I have not come here for their food. Not once have I stepped through those doors to eat here BUT I do come for their bubble tea! It is the best boba in the area. Perfectly made boba balls, perfectly sweet drinks. Thank you guys for such amazing bubble tea read more

Their pho is unmatched. The broth is so good!! And the bring it out almost immediately. Good service. My go to pho spot

A co-worker recommended this Pho restaurant and she was spot on. I've ordered from there (take out) twice and was very satisfied both times. First of all their serving size is enormous. A regular size definitely could serve two people generously. Maybe it's meant to and us piggy Americans are eating too much. No offense to anyone except me. Anyway, I order one normal size and have two full meals. I first ordered shrimp. It was great, large shrimps and plenty of them. The next time I ordered the house special Pho and what a treat it was. A variety of meats that were melt in your mouth tender and so flavorful I'm making my mouth water just remembering it. Highly recommend! read more

Best beef noodle Pho in Port Orchard. Very friendly and fast service. Highly recommended.

Consistently delicious, best broth we've had, with rich, complex spicing and always fresh veggies. Highly recommended!

Food is so delicious, best pho I have had in years. We got take out and it was still hot after the 15-minute drive back to our cabin. Spring rolls were fresh and yummy. We have been craving it since we came home from vacation. We are going to take the hour drive back to Port Orchard just to get some and bring back home. read more

Truly a hidden gem. Fast and easy service too! Minimal interruptions while slurping your delicious soup up - whatever it may be. I ordered for the chicken pho per usual with a side spring roll split between shrimp and beef (yay variety) and I cannot accentuate how good this meal was!!!! I am 29 weeks pregnant and soup is my go to comfort food. Owner was on the floor today too leading the team with a smile. Sure will be back! Kudos x5! read more

Pho Golden - One spring roll 50/50 beef/shrimp - Vietnamese Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

2x trying Pho Golden for carry out. The first time was not long after they opened and it was not great. It had been awhile so tried them again yesterday. My mistake. I really don't understand all these 5 star reviews. My Pad Thai was a glob of congealed rice noodles with a weird sweet and sour sauce. Maybe a teaspoon of peanuts. No spice, no onions, no cilantro. A few shredded carrots. This pad thai never saw the inside of a wok, awful. Red flag was when they didn't ask how many start for heat. BIG RED FLAG. Also order a pho. Not bad, again, bland but at least it was edible. read more

I love this place. I've been living in Port Orchard for more than 2 years now and this place has consistently been incredible. The staff is wonderful always friendly and positive. Thank you, Pho Golden! read more

Ok, Im originally from California, so this pho is just ok. It's not bad, but it's not great like many raved about in their reviews. The clay pot was pretty tasty, but I've had better. The service was fast, veggies fresh, and the place was clean. I may go back to try their curry or other dishes, but I really don't have a desire to go back there. On the pho alone....I can make better pho at home. read more

I hate writing negative reviews for family businesses... so let me first say that the chicken fried rice was good. Now, here comes the bad news: I asked for the "largest pho size" and my picture shows how much pho broth I got. Imagine eating 90% noodles with just barely enough broth to cover it. It didn't taste right. They need to change their takeout portions! Also, the pad thai is seriously bad! So bad, that my wife didn't believe me when I said it was pad thai. We agreed that it's the worst pad thai we've ever had, and anybody who loves pad thai will be disappointed with this version of "pad thai". Final verdict: Very disappointing, but still the best Pho in Port Orchard. The pad thai will make you sad. read more

Pho Golden - This is the amount of pho broth that comes with the "biggest size" pho. - Vietnamese Near Me - Port Orchard, Washington

I enjoy this place. One of the few with Saigon crepes. Good service and enjoyable food.

We got a to go order at the beginning of quarantine. The service was 100%, the pho broth was perfect no artificial flavors or too much five spice, perfection! They provided all of the condiments and for reasonable prices, if you just want broth thats only $4, what a treat, we will surely be back! Theres only one other Pho place that I like in Kitsap and it's in Silverdale. Thank you for your great service and Pho! read more

Long story short: service is quick, pho is on the sweeter side, pad thai noodles were the worst we've ever had... I'm always on the lookout for a good Pho place, so we stopped in for an early lunch at Pho Golden especially since it was a chilly day - and I had a craving for soup. It was around 11am on a Tuesday and there was one other customer seated. The atmosphere was fairly basic. We were greeted and picked a table. We ordered a large bowl of brisket pho, a pad thai noodles with chicken, two egg rolls and hot tea. The large pho was only $1 more than the small, so it's a good value for eating half and taking half home. The tea and fresh pho toppings came out quickly. Next came the egg roll. It had a satisfying crispy crunchy wrapper but the cabbagy filling had little to no flavor. It came with a syrupy sweet dipping sauce which didn't improve things. Not bad though with their Sriracha-style sauce. It wasn't long before the pho and pad thai noodles arrived. The pho was a good temperature and smelled good, but the brisket was a lean cut, without any of the flavorful fat on it. I ate it without adding sauces at first, so I could really taste the broth. It lacked a depth of flavor and was sweeter than I like. It was an OK bowl of pho. The pad thai noodles were very original - unlike any we've ever eaten before. If you're craving pad thai noodles, keep driving. However, if you love the sauce that comes with the egg rolls, this will be your new favorite. We left the noodles and just at the chicken, even though the texture was squeeky. During our meal, we were not checked on for water refills until the bill was brought. Pho Golden may have been great at one time (according to the reviews), but now it seems to lack any joy or pride in what they are serving. For us, the search continues for a better bowl of pho. read more
