This is my 2nd time eating at this establishment. The first time was nice. A teen was working as a waitress and was an absolute sweetheart... But as soon as I walked in this 2nd time I should of known it was going to be a bad experience... The table were sticky/dirty and so were the utensils to eat with. When I asked the waitress/cashier for a towel to wipe the table down. She gave me attitude and told me to sit at another table which was less sticky.. Smh.. I sat down at my new table and ordered pho and a fruit smoothie. 10 mins go by and my food and drink are brought to me. I start to pour housin/siracha into my pho when i realise the soup is lukewarm and to make matters worst there was a fly in my drink!!! I called the lady over to show her and to my face she tells me, that must've just happened because the restaurant doors we're open. I told her no that fly (which looks like its been dead a long time) had been in there since she gave it to me. She then apologies and takes the drink to the kitchen, where i see her show the cook the fly in the drink and they proceeded to laugh about it. At that point, I called her back to my table to tell her I wont be eating there and that I was leaving.. She had the nerve to still try charge me for the fly drink.. I Will Not Be Back to This Venue!!! (The 1 star is for my 1st time coming here) read more

I enjoy Vietnamese food. Pho Mai offers it at its best. Prices are reasonable. A delicious variety of food is offered. Service is friendly. It is my favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Everett WA. read more

I've been going to this restaurant for years but haven't been for a bit. I think that they've changed the broth recipe. It's distinctly sweeter. Actually, quite sweeter with a strong hint of nutmeg or possibly allspice. I don't really have the palate to know the difference but it's sweeter and it's not a straight-up sugary sweetness. You know, I don't like it. It's not that it's bad; it's just different. It's not for me. Others might like it but I don't. That's one star lost. The other issue is that, yesterday and today, the broth has been lukewarm. It used to come out blazing hot. I used to like the feeling of the broth cooking the rest of my mixed ingredients and all that. Putting raw meat in and then having it come out perfectly rare. Now it feels that the meat's just hovering about, thinking, 'Okay, what now?' One time of getting lukewarm broth, I can forget. Twice? And when the broth has seemingly changed? That's another star. Now, here's where the star system fails. Sort of. It's a great restaurant run by great people. It's clean; the staff is great; they're clearly dedicated; all the ingredients are fresh, and awesome, and delicious, and I would recommend anyone in the neighborhood to give it a go. And the lukewarm thing? That's correctable. But the change in the broth? I dunno. It's a matter of taste, obviously. It's just not for me. The nutmeg-like notes just ruin the whole experience with me. Will I give it another go? You bet. It was the place that made me a phan of pho (see what I did there? L@@K AGAIN.). And maybe that's why I'm so put off by the recipe change (if, indeed, there was one; maybe it's me that's off) because it's like going back to Mom's and finding out she's switched out recipes on you. The broth is still good, still delicious, but, eh, it's just not for me. If it had been just the broth change, one star. If it had just been the lukewarm broth twice, one star. But the both together? Over two visits? Sorry, two stars. HAHAHA LOOK ME THINKING MY OPINION IS THAT IMPORTANT THAT I HAVE TH EXPLAIN oh god nevermind -------------------- Okay, quickly going back quickly and with great alacrity, celerity, and speediness bumping back up a star because now I'm completely paranoid that they haven't changed the broth recipe and it's my palate that's changed. My reasoning is because I'm in the process of trying to, once again, give up caffeine and--more importantly--Coke Zero. Haven't had any in days. Just thought to myself, 'Oh, right, that'll be nice. A bit of Coke Zero.' Opened a bottle. FSSSSST. Had a sip and it was brutal foamy mouth death. The carbonation was so intense that I simply fell through the crust of the Earth for no reason whatsoever. It was insane. I was like, 'Why am I down here? WTF is a Fraggle? Take sword.' Wait. Which restaurant was I reviewing again? read more

I came here to order what I usually order in pho restaurants: 3 order of spring rolls without noodles. The girl attending was nice and smiley, except that she ask me if I was going to be able to eat the 3 orders. Hmmm wrong question to ask a customer. Anyway my order came and it was actually kind of bland, made with iceberg lettuce, rolls didn't have mint or a roll of eggroll wrapper, sauce didn't taste to peanuts, it just had sprinkled peanuts on to. Nothing special really. Place was spotlessly clean, including bathroom. I could be back in the area tu try the pho read more

Ive been here a couple of times before, all the food fly out of the kitchen pretty quick. Everything about the pho was delicious from the broth to the meat, even the portion was just right! The spring roll came out pretty quick as well, although that leads me to believe that its made ahead of the time because the wrap was a little dry. Service on the other hand was horrendous, the waiter dropped off water when we first got there and that was the last time my glass was filled. When the spring roll came out, it was on a dirty plate as was the extra bowl we asked for. As a staff member approached our table she stopped at a table to grab a napkin to wipe off whatever was on the bowl.... we had to wipe it again after she handed it to us. Probably my last time here due to service, the ordeal was rather embarrassing because i recommended this place to the party i was with. Sorry to say but it was their first time there and probably their last. read more

This place was a good pho place to go when I moved up here from Seattle 7 months ago. Not the best but good enough to satisfy your craving. We came back 2 months ago for pho but it was disappointing. Despite the place looks cleaner, the name and menu have changed under new ownership. It's still Pho Mai outside on the sign but on the menu it's Happy Pho. The taste is noticeably different. We ordered a large pho but it came out bland, the tendon had a bad beefy smell, and within 5 minutes, the noodle has completely absorbed the broth due to bad portion of noodle vs broth. We have to ask for an extra bowl of broth and again we had a pretty hard time communicating with waitresses. The 2 girls took time to understand what we requested so the noodle got soggy by the time the broth came out. We also ordered a togo milk coffee ahead of time before finishing the bowl. Still we spent time waiting for it as they seemed don't know how to make it properly. Sad experience since we used to love this place. We may give it another chance later but won't be back for now. read more

good food. Their food was like any other typical viet restaurant. I had the opportunity to eat here a few times with friends. It's a good place to go to, but not the greatest place. Service is okay and food quite fast. Although they have a quite a good size restaurant to always have tables available, it's not as good as Janbo Cafe. read more

I have religiously ordered our pho from here for years. More recently it appears to be under new management. Looking for cooks and wait staff. the last pho I ordered, was LESS than appealing and was awful tasting. I am not sure what these new reviews are about, have you guys EVER eaten good pho? Food was cold, not as flavorful, and was very disappointing considering the amount of money we've spent here....guess I'm on the hunt for a new pho place, it is sad and unfortunate! read more

Not gonna lie, came here because of the name. I mean damn, I could; I would Ordered a medium pho with brisket and steak, chicken banh mi (sandwich), and chicken wings. I'm really particular in what my pho broth taste and this place almost got it. Noodles were fine but the brisket and steak was gamey. My friend ordered the chicken banh and chicken wings. Wings were crispy, fried to the bone and the sandwich was 6/10. Clean interior. Attentive service although the server forgot my iced coffee! Id come eat again if I was on evergreen way. read more

I came here because it normally had been pretty good but after today not anymore. It took forever to get waited on I almost walked out, (I should have) second I didn't get what I ordered I didn't want any meat in my pho soup just some extra broth they gave me a bowl full of noodles hardly any broth, I would have sent it back but the service was and is crap!!!!!!!! Beware read more

Our family loves Vietnamese. It seemed to be a family owned restaurant and we ordered the brisket and tendon pho, it was so good. We also ordered the pork sandwich with beef broth, also so good. The bread was yummy. Will go again when we're in town. read more

Pho Happy Noodles - Vietnamese Near Me - Everett, Washington

We love this place! Location is convenient for us and service is always very quick! Food is good and their bubble tea is my favorite!

This used to be my favorite quick lunch spot, but it was recently sold or something. It is truly horrible now and I would recommend avoiding it, at least until they figure out how to run a restaurant. We attempted to visit here on our lunch break today. After we arrived there were several other tables that filled up, but when we first walked in they weren't that busy. I noticed there were more staff in the restaurant than I've ever seen there. After they took our order, the waiter said it may be 15-20 minutes to get our food because they had a new cook. I immediately assumed we were screwed and asked for our food to go. I had to get back to work by the end of the hour. In the time we were there, I think they tried to bring us the food for every other table in the place. Our food for the party of six came out one at a time over the course of more than 30 minutes. We never got a few of the items but we gave up on them. When the food finally did come out it was not very good. I'm sad we've lost our favorite lunch spot :( read more

Affordable noodle house prices, but better food and a great atmosphere. Highly recommended! I went in for the first time last week, and I was really impressed! First, the food was delicious! My friends and I had spring rolls and shrimp skewers for appetizers, and I ordered one of the noodle dishes. So good! I couldn't believe how much food I got for the price. Just like a standard noodle house, the food was really affordable and served very quickly. Unlike a noodle house, the restaurant is really nice, bright, and relaxing. It was definitely more upscale, and I didn't feel like I had to hurry to eat and leave. What a great combination! read more

This is my go to Pho lunch spot, after trying 3 others in Everett I go back to Pho Mai every time now. To be honest, I haven't tried anything on the menu except the Pho, but that's because it's so good! The place is clean, but the decor looks like it was all ordered from a Asian Restaurant Supply catalog. read more

the vegetable pho was so good! they gave me the perfect amount of veggies and tofu. plus the girl working there was pretty cool. definitely going back again with my brother read more

I have 2 Pho establishments I regularly visit, this is one of them. The broth is always consistent and they always remember my order!

My husband and I went here last month to try it, and it was awesome, and have eaten here a couple times since (sometimes with take out). The service is AMAZING, the Pho is GREAT, and all the appetizers we've tried were DELICIOUS. My husband tried the Iced Coffee, and it was really wonderful. My favorite is the coconut juice. (Just to try it, we gave one of their competitors a try last night--- Pho To Liem, and had a horrible experience. Not only did we NOT get served properly, but the waitress spilled my hot soup all over me and my nice clothes, and burnt my hand and knee. They did not offer to take anything off of my bill!!! Not a penny! Horrible place. STay away!) I will stay Loyal to Pho Mai Noodles forever! They are the BEST Pho in Everett!! read more

I tried Bun Bo Hue first, it's so delicious I have to come back for more. Am just moved in the area didn't try Pho yet but pretty sure it's good too seeing other customers enjoy so much. Thank you Pho Mai Noodle to share your Recipes with us that money can't buy! I wish you well. Yesterday (4 days after my 1st visit) I came back to order Pho rare beef with tendon, it's better than I thought for only $6.75 small bowl. The meat is tender not chewy as other places I know. Still 5 Stars. read more

Food portions here was a lot for a decent price and very tasty and good. The bubble tea taro flavor was pretty good that I had to order two of them. Good place to grab some Vietnamese food. read more

Friends and I came here after my company family day event. After walking around the world largest building, one of my friends recommended this place. This place is clean/bright and the space is wide. I feel the portion was big for the price. Though, be aware of credit card charge under $10. read more

Ordered chicken Pho, got home, the broth tasted gross, very beefy and kind of rancid. I have ordred here a few times and it was good, so I Called n asked if they had a chicken broth for the chicken pho and was told yes.When i proceeded to tell her i thought she gave me the wrong broth, she initially apologized and said they ran out. I said I didn't like it and couldn't eat it. Then she said it was the same, they use beef for all the Pho. Ok... Not what was originally said...I think I'll find a new place. Wasn't happy at all. read more

I've recently discovered this place and I'll definitely being coming back! Very tasty pho and broth! I'm looking forward to coming back and trying other dishes. The place is clean and the staff are very friendly. read more

Really like the food here. Usually I get the fresh rolls, the fried rice, chicken skewers, vietnamese sandwhiches or the chicken Pho. I think the prices are decent and comparable. I've never seen it busy in there and the servers are always friendly! read more

You have to try this place some of the best pho I have ever ate in my life, Pho Mai Noodles Is now under new ownership the same owners that own Happy Pho formally best of pho in Marysville have took over about a few months ago and have turn this place around The interior is much cleaner and more uniformed customer service is 100% better than before the food is fresher and way better tasting than the previous owner, their menu has a lot of great items from stirfry's to rice dishes also most importantly there Pho is so much better OMG, this will definitely be one of my go to places and I would recommend this to all my friends and family. read more

I wish I could give them zero stars! My daughter and I ordered and sat there for a half hour while everyone around us, including people who came in after us, was served! We even had a nice man who came in after us come over to our table and apologize that he got his food first. What the hell is that?! I stopped the waitress after 20 minutes and asked her for the lemonade my daughter ordered, she nodded her head and walked away, never came back with lemonade. We got up and walked out. I will NEVER go back and NEVER recommend this place. Unbelievable. read more

Food was decent, and came to the table quickly. From there everything went down hill....fast. Tried to get someone's attention that we would like our check and to go boxes to no avail. Staff too busy posing for pictures with a cake. When we finally got someone's attention they acted like we were interrupting them. Asked for 2 boxes, received 1. Couldn't help but feel the whole time we were really just an inconvenience, not paying customers. Too many choices in the area to be made to feel this way. read more

I wanted to venture out and try a new pho place so thanks to yelp, this was the chosen one. As soon as we walked in we were greeted (good job). The server was friendly. Since it was a new place, we all decided to get different things: spicy bun bo hue, combo pho with meatballs, and vegetarian pho..........I was able to try a little bit of each and they were all delicious BUT my fav was my combo pho, of course. The owners came and chatted with us and even brought us some special dip to trip. It was good. We'll definitely be back! Keep up the good service and food! read more

Not the cleanest place in town, but the Pho is good and the service is decent. The ingredients seem pretty fresh and everything I have ordered here (mostly just the rare round eye steak pho) has always been served very quickly from a polite young man. We will continue to frequent this place for their pho, just keep in mind that cleanliness is not their strongest trait and their service is decent at best. read more

I think I've eaten my last meal here. Today we noticed that the Sriracha had been watered down. It was orange and runny instead of red and thick. Where else are they cutting corners? On my previous visit they served lemon wedges in place of lime. Need I say anymore? read more

Pretty darn good Pho Ga! I also ordered a Bahn Mi and some Spring Rolls, but will save those later - as my small Pho filled me up!

I live only a few blocks from Pho Mai, so I was there often. I love the food, and kept coming back. The waitress is very rude, and treated me poorly. (probably because I interrupted her, checking Facebook on her phone!) This is the third consecutive encounter with her, and her attitude has remained the same. When I say "thank you" I expect some kind of response. My money, will never inconvenience Pho Mai noodles again! read more

Some of the best Pho around. The broth is tasty and veggies are fresh. Great Vietnamese sandwiches too. Prices reasonable and service is fast. It's Pho....but really good pho!! read more

Me and my son eat here frequently. Their sandwiches are one of our favorites and the rice noodle dishes and pho are excellent too. They do take out so we often call in our order to go. The place is often crowded and diverse group when we get there. Always friendly service when we've been there. read more

Ok, so it's pretty good food. I come almost every other weekend after work. I don't eat the soup but the vermicelli noodles, spring rolls, pork/shrimp skewers. It's good stuff! In terms of service, well... Don't expect too much. They'll take your order, give you water, bring your food and you won't see them again. It's not that kind of a place. But the 4 stars is for the food, not service. I would recommend for the food. They're not mean, just not attentive.... read more

I wish I didn't live so far from Everett! Met some friends here for lunch on a Monday. Fairly busy, but the place is spacious and feels very open. Lots of natural light coming in from all the windows. Started off with he fresh spring rolls. They were fresh and the dipping sauce paired well. I tried the mixed beef-cut pho and some lemongrass chicken. The pho had a very clean flavor and came with plenty of lime, basil, peppers and sprouts. The chicken was amazing. All of the great lemongrass flavor without any tough bits of lemongrass. The coconut water was also a refreshing surprise. Topped off with a complimentary creampuff, I was stuffed. Very reasonbly priced, especially compared to what I usually see in Bellevue. read more

Was a happy customer until they decided to "raise" the prices but not adjust the menus.... Pretty shady. No problem since there a at least a hundred other pho places around here i can spend my money at. read more

Everyone knows I love Pho and a place closer to work is even better. Great location and facility is very clean, that alone would beat the rest but the fact their they added sandiwches to their currently great menu is even better. I've had almost every different pho combination they have and they are all good, sizes are big but thats fairly common. Step right up to a bowl and enjoy. read more

Great flavor to their pho, love their spring rolls too! This is our go to pho spot :)

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. First off, they do not speak English. I had so much trouble ordering extra noodles with my pho. Also, this is the first restaurant that I've been to with extra hidden fees everywhere. Most pho restaurants offer free extra noodles, but they charge an extra 60 cents here. And, as an added bonus for them, if you use a credit card for purchases under $10, they charge you 75 cents. And, if you take out your order, that'll be another 60 cents added to your bill. RIDICULOUS. The noodles have been cooked way too early prior to you ordering so they are all stuck together, and the cream puff may seem like a nice surprise but are soggy and almost gone bad. Also, they don't give you hot sauce.. which angered me very much because I love a little bit of hot sauce in my pho. DO NOT go to do this restaurant. read more
