    One of my favorite pho restaurants! This is a very small family owned spot with exceptional pho. Although the restaurant is small, in need of a little TLC, and cluttered (pay no attention to the cases of bottled water and boxes of supplies on the sides), the food and service are top notch! Service is always fantastic and prompt. They have always been busy during my visits, so sharing a table has been the norm -- they do ask if it's okay with you; and ask the other people at the table if they don't mind. Chopsticks, spoons, sauces and soup accompaniments (pickled garlic and jalapeños) are on the table -- highly recommend the pickled garlic. Bottled water is complimentary, as well. Their Phö Tái Bò Vién (menu item P3) is my favorite. I love the convenience of ordering their dishes by size, depending how hungry I am. I always recommend this spot whenever I'm asked for pho recommendations.

    Ordered delivery and was pretty pleased from what I ordered. The summer rolls was 2 big sizes with the peanut sauce. Perfect amount of each ingredients inside. I added the pho tai gau gam that had filet mignon steak, fatty beef brisket and tendon. A good amount of each meat. The broth was rich in flavor. Definitely one of my new places to order pho from.

    I visited Pho Huong Lan with my family and the pho here is absolutely incredible! The restaurant is quite small but my party of 4 only had to wait around 10 minutes before being seated since it was a busier night. The outside seating area is also a cute option if you visit while the weather is nice. I highly recommend the Pho Dac Biet (special combination). The broth is so flavorful and aromatic with super tender meat. I also got a lemonade soda which had fresh lemon and was really tart just how I like it.

    Pho with beef tongue. Best pho place in orlando! Extremely good broth and the place is always busy and service is extremely quick. Good place for food but they turn tables quick so you need to find somewhere else nearby to hangout afterwards if you plan to spend time with friends or family.

    I still love the pho here and everything from my previous review stands! But I recently had the combination pho and my only complaint is that it only comes with one meatball. :( But we tried one of the desserts this time, the che thai, and it was so good! It's basically a cold cup of fruit and toppings inside a pretty sweet milk. And it's so refreshing. I also love that they have a lot of different sauces and such at the table, besides the standard hoisin and sriracha. I am a big big fan of the sliced pickled garlic. Parking always seems full, but I haven't had any trouble finding parking yet. But it's kind of annoying if you have to go to the bathroom to ask for the key and to walk to the bathroom. There are several stalls inside, but only one key to my knowledge. And the server's are usually pretty friendly, depending on who you talk to. Some of them don't seem to acknowledge if they heard your request when they walk off, (even though they did)so it's a little confusing. But we still left satisfied.

    When I first came in, this place so busy, and they are fast. I got a table right away. This place is small and they have an outdoor seating. This place only service Vietnamese noodles soup. My husband order PHO ĐẶC BIỆT special pho and had XL noodles bowl, I had a BÚN BÒ HUẾ for a L. This place gave a lots of meats and noodles. The bowl was huge. We also order GỎI GÀ. It was good too! I also like my sugarcane drink too! The price here is very reasonable. The waster was so attractive, when he saw my napkin on the floor, he told me and hurry grab me another one, I did not ask or say anything. That's what you call good service. The condiments were all there and good. The next time I come and visit, I will definitely come back for some noodles soup.

    My go to for pho in Orlando!! I always like to recommend this place to anyone coming to Orlando and it never disappoints! I also like how fast they are with taking orders and bringing out the food; the herbs and beansprouts are always fresh!

    Decided to check this place out for Sunday brunch. I went to their newly opened location on West colonial drive. They gave each of us 500cc bottle of water, which I preferred over tap water. We both got medium pho that has filet mignon, brisket, and tendon inside. The price point is bit high for a pho ($~15 for medium) but the ingredients are soooo fresh including the beef. The broth is also really tasty. The noodles are not the traditional pho noodles that you would see in other pho restaurants though. Personally, I prefer the traditional noodles, so this was the only downside. Still, I loved everything else about the restaurant and would definitely come back!

    Great art

    If you like pho, go here. Best pho in the state. Only down side is no spring rolls, I don't care but some people need a roll. I prefer tendon and they make the best. I tried the ox penis and I thought it was excellent, don't be scared. There is always a line, but worth the wait. Outdoor seating is super nice.

    Bun Bo Hue
    Rachel C.

    I've been dreaming about this restaurant since I came here a year ago and finally had the opportunity to stop by and get the Bun Bo Hue. It was amazing, everything I've ever wanted. The broth is extremely flavorful and the meat was so tender and delicious. The pho was great last time but this bun bo hue was life changing. Adding in some of the garlic chili sauce (careful it's pretty dang spicy!) also kicked it up a notch and was delicious. We were seated and got our food extremely quick. I will say the restaurant gets pretty packed quickly so I recommend coming earlier in the day for lunch, and also since the bun bo hue sells out on busy days! Can't wait for my next trip to Orlando so I can eat this again!

    Elena C.

    Decent price for the pho. I normally get the combination. I'd come here again, but I wouldn't pay extra for oxtail (not as flavorful as I thought). The service is up to speed, and though the place can be packed, I felt right at home with the ambiance of the restaurant.

    Pho Bo Vien $16.00
    Brian H.

    Was at Orlando and we saw the high reviews at Pho Huong Lan. We decided to try it out and it was so packed. The servers told us to sit outside in the back area. We sat at the benches and table that is lower to the ground in summer 95+ degree heat. Luckily they have those home fans on but no portable A/C. We were sweating like we all just ran a marathon. I got a Large Pho Bo Vien (meatball pho) ($16). Holy cow the broth was so bad. It was pretty salty, the meatballs were packed in salt or something and the Banh pho (rice noodles) were breaking apart. Also, they don't have Huy Fong Sriracha and have those off-brand sriracha that has no flavor and just basically food coloring. Everyone in our party expressed the same disappointment LOL. Once we paid for our table, the lady came out and told us they made a mistake on our bill and that I only paid a portion of it. She never even showed us the bill and demanded an extra $30 something dollars. I just handed her $40 cash and call it a day. Overall: I've ate Pho basically ever since I was in kindergarten. This place might be the worst or one of the worse Pho restaurants I've ever eaten. I'm very surprised by the high reviews. The service itself it can slide but the food itself is just abysmal.

    Service was quick but the pho was just OK. Place is really small and a bit hidden. They serve pho with a thick wide noodle which feels more like a udon noodle rather than pho. The noodles weren't bad it was just different from your standard pho noodle (thin). The broth did lack some flavor. It lacked the flavor and aroma of authentic pho spices (like anise). There are plenty of meats to choose from and different meat combos since they only serve pho which is great. There are no apps like fried egg rolls or summer rolls. My quest for an authentic pho place in central FL continues.

Perfect chewy texture, what Taiwanese would call "QQ" I realized after my second visit that I still have not tried an udon with hot broth. I've tried the Spicy Miso Tan-Tan Udon, which was quite tasty, although a little on the richer/heavier side. I have also tried the Mentaiko Tsukimi Udon which was refreshing in the cold broth. I paired it with an add-on of sliced beef, which was delicious, they serve it on the side so you can add to whatever dish on your own. What I wouldn't recommend... The Viet Coffee with sesame foam and crushed sesame seeds was hard to drink. I loved the initial flavors but the foam got a little greasy and clumpy when mixed with the crushed sesame seeds, particularly toward the second half of the coffee. I wouldn't order it again. I would be interested to see any updates they've made recently but with so many new restaurants on Mills, I may choose those first.

We wanted to try the wontons in chili oil but they were sadly out so we ended up getting the big beef skewers. The flavoring on them was sooo good. But we did have a lot of super chewy and fatty pieces that we weren't really a fan of. The noodles came out so quickly and they were streaming hot, which we loved. The clear broth is super clean and light with a very herbal fragrance to it. Like I feel like that would be perfect to drink if you were sick. But not being sick, I did end up adding some soy sauce just to give it some more flavor. But I like that with the sauces at the table, you can kinda just customize to your liking. I think the knife cut noodles are probably my favorite type of noodles here, but the hor fun goes really well with the clear broth. I also tried the green grape fruit tea and it was so refreshing! The flavor wasn't artificial at all and it was so nice to have with the hot noodles. I think this spot is super worth if you're the type to order extra noodles, or if you're a big eater. But the portions were pretty satisfying enough on the first go for us (def not a bad thing), so we didn't get to do any refills.
