    OMG! What a hidden gem- authentic flavors, all fresh, cooked to order. The atmosphere is not fancy at all, and the neighborhood is modest. But whether you eat in or take out, your guests will be impressed with any dishes! We had steamed dumplings, spring rolls and a variety of pho. Second time we visit, a total of five very happy diners :)

    Grilled beef and egg roll vermicelli bowl
    Micah C.

    Stopped by here for lunch during a work trip and was really impressed by the food. It's definitely a hole in the wall restaurant. I ordered the grilled beef and egg roll vermicelli bowl (BÚN BÒ NƯỚNG CHẢ GIÒ). The grilled beef was delicious and well seasoned. The egg roll was good, but nothing to write home about. However, the dish as a whole was refreshing and tasty, especially when mixed with the sweet/tangy sauce that came with it. Price was pretty inexpensive too compared to what I typically see in the DC metro area -- it was a big portion for $12.95. Our server was also friendly and attentive. The place is pretty small inside, and the tables could have been cleaner.

    Angel vermicelli with lemongrass tofu
    Linda M.

    Locate in Trenton right tucked away besides row homes, Kim Pho is worth the trip. We ordered the Shrimp wrap appetizer which was very good. Definitely fresh! For dinner I had the angel vermicelli with lemongrass tofu. It was very flavorful and delicious. The serving was large enough for me to take some home. I also got the mango smoothie bubble tea, which was enjoyable but I found the bobas quite mushy and flavorless. But over all the drink was tasty. I'd definitely come back. I'm giving 4 stars as I really wanted to order some Pho, but they were all made with beef broth and I'm a vegetarian. Definitely worth a try!

    This place was so good, we found it on the search for a place to eat after sesame place. There was one other table seated when we got there and they left happy. The gentleman who served us was very nice and quick and doing everything. When we finished there was one other table and people picking up food. We'll definitely be back when we're in the area again.

    the interior of a fast food restaurant

    No doubt, the naming of this Viet kitchen is an intentional play on pronunciation. Regardless, I was very pleasantly surprised by the definite upgrade in quality provided by the new management of this small restaurant on Brunswick Avenue, Trenton, NJ, right up the street from the former Helene Fuld Medical Center. The dining room looks basically the same, but cleaner than it was in the past, and the management is truly Vietnamese. The floor boss oversees everything in the house in the appropriate accent, while the HDTV high on the wall plays a documentary on local ethnic cooking around the Mekong River delta. Educational and entertaining. My Pho Tai (beef noodle soup w rare sliced ribeye) was quite tasty. The large bowl ($12.95), had at least ten thin slices of steak and plenty of onion, scallion, rice noodles and well simmered broth, to which I added squeezed lime, jalapeños, Thai basil, and sprouts. It was nicely balanced, but probably could have used more lemongrass in the pot to kick up the heat quotient a bit. I also ordered a Grilled Beef Banh Mi (sandwich on demi baguette), which was also very good, especially after long squirts from the Hoisin Sauce and short bursts from the sriracha table rocket. The loaf had a crisp skin and soft inners and held its contents well with strong flavor from the daikon radish, carrot, homemade aioli and ample grilled beef with excellent bbq sauce basting. I ordered another with pork to take home for those I knew loved this snack. Aside from the sketchy nature of the neighborhood which dictates that the wise go there for lunch, Pho Kim has the chance to succeed based on the quality of the kitchen and brightness of the dining room. If enough of us visit, we can help assure its longevity.

    mixed vermicelli, very good and filling. chicken super tender
    Mark G.

    Just dropped by this brand new Vietnamese for lunch. i was here many years ago and it was not good at all. new owners took over and opened up a few weeks ago. the real loose leaf hot tea was the first indication that this was going to be a decent quality lunch. also a good indication was that there were both hot chili oil and sriracha on the table. i prefer the hot chili oil so i was glad to see it. i ordered a mixed vermicelli. the noodles were fresh and plentiful. although i prefer mine on the cool side and this was warm, it was still super fresh and satisfying. the spring roll was great too. next time i will order more veggies and less vermicelli. i always regret it when i forget to do so. interior is simple, clean and comfortable. server was very pleasant and spoke broken English well enough. For some that may be a negative, for me the fact that these folks are immigrants cooking their food, is exactly what will bring me back. I took out pho and summer rolls for my wife and kids. One of my son's loved his brisket pho and told me it was the best he ever had. I think that's due to the broth being well balanced and not overly aggressive. I had one of the summer rolls, shrimp and lettuce were very fresh and the peanut sauce had some body to it, not watery like in some other places. Overall, I will be back and try some of the other items I enjoy. Worth a visit for sure.

    Beef Noodle Soup

    I'm so in love with this place. I come here when I wanna get away from the noise and have a warm bowl of soup. It's beautiful inside and it's clean. The hostess is gracious and makes you feel welcoming. I will always come to this place.

    summer rolls
    Jacqueline R.

    I was in town visiting my grandparents on a rainy saturday and was feeling some pho. They've never had it so i had to introduce them to this heavenly soup. Now this was my first time searching and trying this place and the reviews looked great so i went with my first instinct. I ordered 2 classic: chicken and eye round steak. The portions were plenty and the chicken was chunky pieces vs sliced (how i've usually had it) but i was not mad at it. Plenty of utensils and what really stood out is that this is the first of many places i've gone that gives you plastic to go soup spoons. That sold me! The comments said they have a rooftop for outdoor seating will definitely be back. The summer rolls were huge for an order of 2. The peanut sauce was delicious and if i'd have to nitpick i wish the peanuts were crushed a bit more to make it easier to scoop on the rolls. Also wish they had an option to switch chili sauce with sriracha. Thank you for this experience Pho Kim; with love from MD!

They offer most of the traditional street food found throughout VN, with the exception of Banh Mi. I ordered Steak Pho (small), which came with Thai basil leaves, sprouts, lime wedge and thin jalapeño slices. I also went with an order of Spring Rolls and sweet dipping sauce. The beef soup base was well simmered and had a rich savory flavor. There were 8 thin slices of ribeye cooking in the bowl, and a large nest of rice noodles just beneath the surface. Hoisin and Sriracha were onboard for added sweet and heat. Quite good, but for the aftertaste of MSG from slurping the tasty base. Downside was the cost. $25 for a semi-fast food lunch was not really commensurate with the enjoyability of the meal. 2.5 Phogetable Stars. Unlikely to return.

The salad fresh and the fried egg with it's golden yolk all the gravy you need on that jasmine rice. The chop itself is one of the fattier cuts that most northern suburbanites don't eat, but it chock full of pork fat bliss. If you know, you know. I just say this because some of you will object to the fat content. It comes with two chops, so even if you cut out the fat, you still have a lot of pork meat to enjoy. The vietnamese style ice coffee is a must imo. Theirs is good. Not getting the iced coffee is like going to Wendy's and not getting a Frosty.

Here's where everything went south: The service was quick. My order was ready. The bag was nice. I had second thoughts walking out immediately. Maybe I didn't appreciate it because after all it was Princeton. The banh mi was small. The banh mi was weak. The pickled carrots and radish were just not pickled enough. And WHO THE PHUCK rolls lettuce in their Banh Mi?!?!? did The Bo Kho sauce left a lot to be desired. The shaking beef was less than shaking. The broken rice was definitely not broken. They don't advertised as much but for a Viet plate. It was expected. And for $20 all you get was beef and rice. Nothing else. Not even garnish. Whatever. My bottom line is...if you're white with limited tastebuds. You'll love this place. If you're Asian and looking for Viet...this isn't it.

    Review for Meatheadz - Lawrence Township, NJ…read more After hearing a NJ Transit conductor rave about Meatheadz, I finally decided to check it out--and I'm glad I did. This place absolutely lives up to the hype. I went with the Plain cheesesteak with fried onions and pepper jack cheese on a seeded bun, along with an order of Meatheadz loaded fries. Let me just say, that cheesesteak was a monster. Fresh, perfectly cooked, and swimming in melty cheese--it's easily the best cheesesteak I've had outside of Philly. The portion was so generous I could barely finish it, and for anyone arriving hungry, you definitely won't leave that way. The loaded fries looked fantastic too, but I had to box them up for later (that's how filling the sandwich was). The prices were moderate and fair for what you get, and while the place was busy, the energy felt lively rather than chaotic. All in all, Meatheadz is absolutely worth the trip if you're craving an authentic cheesesteak experience. Rating: 4.25 out of 5
