I…read moreonly stopped in for a boba tea to-go this time, but I'd definitely come back to eat the next time I'm in the area. The seating is simple: just tables and chairs, nothing fancy, which honestly is usually a good sign. They also have grab-and-go spring rolls along with other treats and drinks available. The wait staff is incredibly friendly and genuinely seems to enjoy what they do!

This place always has the best authentic pho and banh mi sandwiches in Tampa Bay at a great price…read more I ordered a pho tai and pork banh mi for takeout and warmed everything up at home. The pho tai was so comforting, and they were generous with their potions of meat and veggies as compared to other places. The broth for was well flavored and rich in taste, the noodles were soft and thin. The ratio between the noodles and broth were perfect. The pork banh mi I had for lunch another day. I added a fried egg on top since that's my favorite addition to eat with banh mis in general. The bread was cripsy on the outside and soft on the inside, and they were generous with their portions of pork and veggies. The egg added a saucy element to it, and helped to create a more hearty and comforting meal. Wish I got more sandwiches for lunches the following days.

I had an amazing experience at Pho 813! The food was absolutely outstanding, especially the Banh Mi…read morepork sandwich. It was perfectly balanced with crispy bread, flavorful, tender pork, and fresh ingredients that made every bite incredible. You can tell a lot of care goes into their preparation. The pho was just as impressive. The broth was rich, aromatic, and full of depth, exactly what you want in a great bowl of soup. It was comforting, fresh, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. On top of the delicious food, the service was friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. If you're looking for authentic, flavorful Vietnamese food, Pho 813 is definitely a must-visit. Highly recommend!

Quick, good, just what you want…read more Ok yeah I have a soft spot for pho813. It's close to the house, it's great and I'm never upset. If it's cold or there is a heavy rain storm outside there is a 85% chance you will see me here for dinner. It just makes sense. I throughly enjoy a lot of things about pho813. From the sauces on the table to the attentive waiters this is the spot. I've done solo dates, group events after sports and birthday celebrations here and everybody enjoyed their meals. Also the bar seating is clutch for solo outings. I don't have to worry about occupying a 4 top and you can chop it up with the staff behind the bar. Heck yeah. Once I was blocked in by the owner/manager in the car lot (I may have parked in the staff parking becuase it was so busy) and when I told the staff a man came out in full 3 piece suit and we laughed our way to the car and he told me he thought I was apart of the kitchen crew so why not park behind me. A great vibe accompanied by great food. I love this place. I can't wait to come back and try more and more dishes and up those 4 stars to 5!

Such a great authentic Vietnamese spot for families and casual dining. My go-to is always the Grilled Beef Chop (Rib Cutlet) rice dish. Their house sauce is on the saltier side, but poured over the rice, it balances out perfectly. Oh, and I absolutely love the Vietnamese iced coffee here! And the portions? They do not play. Generous every single time. The service is what really sets Gao apart. The two gentlemen at the front are always so attentive and friendly. On my last visit, one of them remembered that I wasn't a fan of the steamed egg and pork meatloaf from a previous visit. I never mentioned it or asked for anything, he just remembered my reaction and offered to substitute it with an egg. Such a small gesture, but it says a lot. Great food, thoughtful service, and a place I'll keep coming back to! 10/10!!!

Fantastic Vietnamese buffet where you can try a huge array of Vietnamese staples without…read morecompromising quality! I live in Miami where there isn't much Vietnamese food but my parents moved to Pinellas Park only a few minutes away from this restaurant so I was super excited to visit and go with them! Vietnamese buffets are not a common business model, and from other types of buffets you know that sometimes the quality can suffer, but Quan Ngon strikes a great balance between quality but also diverse options from many subtypes of Vietnamese cuisine. I won't be able to go into everything I tried (that would be a novel) but I will hit some of the highlights: - Grilled pork with broken rice: pork was marinated well, savory and sweet with a nice chargrilled taste, great with the rice + eggs + scallion oil or even by itself - Curry chicken: tastes very similar to how I remember my family does it, light but a bit creamy and with tender chicken and potatoes - Braised clay pot fish (but it's buffet style so served in a warming tray): savory, a bit sweet, tender fish that goes well with rice to soak up all the sauce - Fish sauce wings: not a super traditional dish but it's popping up all over modern Vietnamese restaurants now, slightly crisp outside juicy inside with a delicious savory sweet just salty enough glaze - Dessert (Che) bar: I'm not a huge fan of Vietnamese desserts, but I have to admit their row of Vietnamese desserts are well cooked, and sweet but not too sweet (also approved by my Vietnamese parents so you know it's legit!) For the price, the Quan Ngon Bistro buffet is more than worth it; for not too much above the price of a single entree at most other restaurants, you get to try a generous array of well made dishes. Whether you are native Vietnamese or trying Vietnamese cuisine for the first time, I'd definitely recommend stopping by!

I visited twice,once for lunch and once for dinner, and found that the selection was pretty much exactly the same both times, The pho is only on weekends, dry noodles and meat are pre-portioned into bowls, and the broth wasn't hot enough to properly warm the meat or soften the noodles, leaving them on the dry side instead of tender...I couldn't finish my bowl The bánh xèo was nice and crispy but quite oily and only had 1-2 pieces of shrimp. Some dishes were flavorful and fresh, while others seemed like they had been sitting out for a while and weren't kept hot enough. The standout dishes for me were the rice congee, bánh cuốn, chicken wings, and the caramelized fish. Those were well done and the reason I'd consider coming back. The restaurant was clean, and the staff were attentive. Overall, it's worth trying at least once if you're curious about a Vietnamese buffet, but compared to many of the excellent Vietnamese restaurants in the Tampa Bay area, I still prefer ordering freshly made dishes over the buffet. With a little more variety, hotter food, and a few quality improvements, this place could easily be a worth the price. * Weekdays: $24/adult, kids are half price * Weekends: $29/adult, kids are half price *4 and under free

I've always wanted to do something like this, so we drove about an hour north from Tampa to this location out in the farm area. They sold tickets online through event Brite, that included admission, later, and parking. Otherwise pay upon entry. Vip parking lot closer to the entrance, regular admission is in the first yard. Lots of food vendors and music performance. We arrived closer to sun down and walked around to food booths to see what kinds of vendors were.

We also tried the crab rangoon, which was made with a wonton wrapper and didn't taste very good. That said, the kids thought the food was okay, so it wasn't a total miss for everyone at the table. Service was acceptable, and the restaurant itself is simple and functional. Nothing stood out as terrible, but nothing stood out as memorable either. Overall, it's an okay option if you're nearby, but the flavors didn't feel very authentic to me, and I wouldn't go out of my way to return when there are stronger Vietnamese options available in the area
