Love love love how super adorable this establishment is just shy of Christmas 2025. This quaint spot could easily become a romantic attraction to enjoy for a nice inexpensive dining experience. Exceptional customer service. Food was absolutely perfect. Hot & deliciously scrumptious and the strawberry smoothie-WOWERS. Appreciate the recommendation. Took chance on another yelper's review with cars seeking their destination in all directions :/, Christmas shopping in rush hour traffic=found a place I've driven by more than I care to admit:). Why wait on someone to exit their parking space or a wait time? Perhaps go & check this place out. You might be surprised in how quietness helps recharge your Christmas spirit, turbocharging it in theory. Happy holidays all. Stay well & safe, Amy read more

Pho Lai Restaurant - Vietnamese Near Me - Greenwood, Indiana

Made it when they were open this time. Chicken Pho was good. Broth and noodles excellent. Chicken not so much. Same as most places, flavor boiled out to make the broth, I'm guessing. Fried spring rolls were good, but no hot mustard. I'll be back. Decent place! read more

I stopped by for an early dinner and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered beef, chicken, and shrimp Pho. It arrived freshly prepared and with great flavor. It has a very simple atmosphere and excellent service. The menu offers several different options for Pho and appetizers. read more

Great Burmese food and nice people. There's other Asian food options like Vietnamese and Thai too if you like variety. read more

I ordered the beef pho to go. I ended up assembling it in my car so it was ready to eat when I got home, about an hour away. My only complaint is that the beef was precooked. Could be my fault for not specifying rare? But everywhere I've ever gotten pho has served the meat raw so it cooks in the broth. The portion of beef was very small. Maybe 8-10 pieces that were about the size of a quarter. I ended up omitting it from the pho altogether. When I got home, the pho was still piping hot and very delicious, despite the lack of beef. read more

Always so pleasant and welcoming. I appreciate the quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Steak Pho is delicious and love their spring rolls as well (which unfortunately they were out of this time). I am confused by the menu and signage. It says sushi on the windows, and there is photos of sushi displayed inside- but they don't serve sushi. More menu options would make this place perfect. read more

I went 2 days in a row. My toddler is super picky but absolutely smashed here! We got the beef pho, fried rice and the Shan noodles. So good! The owners are very friendly as well read more

Loved eating here! I tried the Rangoon tea which was a hot tea made with condensed milk. I also got the Shan noodles which were delicious!! My husband got the beef fried rice which was super tasty and my sister got the beef pho. My two year old niece even ate everything on her plate and then some which is saying something I've you've ever eaten with a toddler lol. My sister ordered takeout the next day we will definitely be back! It is a fairly quiet restaurant but the staff were all super friendly and helpful! read more

This place is a great small business restaurant. The slightly extended wait times are worth it! The food was very well made and had depths of flavor. When we came there was only one man manning the restaurant and the quality was still very good, I'm impressed! read more

Such a nice man working at the counter and cooking the food! I just picked something because I didn't know what to get and ended up with a stir fried chicken and veggies mix. I really liked the chili peppers in it and the combo of flavors - I didn't find it to be spicy, so I'm guessing they skimped a little on that thinking I couldn't handle it. Haha. Cute interior - not fancy but they definitely put some thought into the decor. This spot is adjacent to the Dollar General that took over the old Family Video and I definitely feel like it's a slept on spot in Greenwood! read more

Best Pho around. Always do take out, but they have a nice dine in area. Service is always friendly.

Had pho here with my family. The service is okay, the prices are not as bad and affordable, and the food is decent.

Great food!!!!!! The portions are more than generous and the pho was AMAZING!!!!! The drink selection could be better but that's my only critique. The man who owns it is very nice and goes above and beyond to make sure our experience was everything and more. I'll be back!!!! Go and try it for yourself. This place should be packed!!!!!! read more

Bland pho and the smallest serving I've ever had. The side veggies were fair and usually I need to make sure the water from them being washed doesn't end up in my soup but these were dry. I hope they were washed ahead of time but doubt it. Not sure where the stars came from but NOT the pho read more

Loved the food. The owners were very nice to me and my husband. Will definitely will be coming back !

It was my first time eating Pho. It was yummy. My food was hot and made to order. Fast, friendly service. I was greeted when I walked in. As you can see, the bottle was getting empty, so he brought me out a new one. It's definitely something to try. My only complaint is that the online menu said they had veggie spring rolls, but in store, he said they no longer offer them. read more

Everything we tried was delicious. I have never had Burmese cuisine, so we tried a bit of everything. Service was slow, but they had a large lunch crowd. There is a parking lot with plenty of parking and tables aren't cramped. The restaurant does need a good scrubbing. I noticed a lot of dust and the restroom wasn't great. read more

This is one of many Burmese restaurans in the area. The entrees are huge and come with a bowl of broth soup. Service was a little slow, but it was pretty busy for lunch and there were only 2 people working the front of house. (The kitchen was bustling and the food came out fast.) They have several pho soups (hence the name), but I came for the authentic Burmese cuisine, which is a fusion of Chinese and Indian cuisine. Everything was delicious. I will definitely be returning whenever I'm in the area. read more

Pho Lai Restaurant - Steak pho with rare steak - Vietnamese Near Me - Greenwood, Indiana

My favorite thing to do on work trips is to try and find the best Pho spot I can. After reading the many positive reviews on yelp, I decided to visit this place. I walked in and noticed the blinds were mostly closed, it was pretty dim other than a hallway where the bathrooms were and all of the tvs were off. I was only the second table seated in here. Not a big deal but I sat down and was given my menu. I looked around and unfortunately noticed how unclean and deteriorated the place was. The menus were crinkled, old, and covered in dried sauce. The floors looked like they hadn't been cleaned in awhile. Even the outlets next to me were ancient and I could see dust inside. I feel really bad writing this but I immediately stood up and left without getting a drink. I get that money can be tight as a small business owner but does it really hurt to ensure your place where people eat is clean? If it's this unclean in the dining area, what does the kitchen look like? read more

This place set a new standard for awful. The bathrooms were to gross to use, the microwave kept beeping while we waited, and when they set my wife's food down I immediately said "I'm so sorry" to her. I had to do my best to not laugh because I thought she might lose her mind. Our food looked horrible and tasted horrible. We immediately asked for the check and left after only two bites. I love pho, this was exceptionally bad, so decided to take our chances with tacobell. I hope I don't get food poisoning. read more

I was the only one in the place. It was a Wednesday at 5:00 pm. Not a good sign! The GPS directed me to the Greenwood mall and I had been lost before I called and the owner who directed me to Dollar General and sure enough they were right next door, another bad sign! Then things changed. The pho was delicious! The place was very clean. My craving for Vietnamese food was satisfied. After devouring the fried spring rolls with gusto I tackled the pho. The sprouts,basil and hot sauce were on point and the noodles perfectly cooked. I'm glad to have found this place. Remember.... behind the Greenwood Mall next to the Dollar General!! read more

First off, the food is delicious. The service with the gentleman who's the owner is terrific. Sometimes, younger people serve who, to me, are a bit less refined. But everyone is always courteous, helpful, and kind. Compared to two other Pho places I've visited locally, this one has great food and portions for the price. It's also in Greenwood near the mall, so it's very accessible for me. The location is quiet, and the TV plays soothing music as you eat. I would recommend it as I have bought my wife here and she enjoyed herself, and she is very picky. Lol. read more

Pho Lai Restaurant - #30 pho that has shrimp and beef.I also had the hot tea (not sure what type) but was the normal hot tea you'll get if you don't specify. - Vietnamese Near Me - Greenwood, Indiana

Spring rolls were nicely crisp but mushy inside. The samosas were delicious with a deep, complex flavor and a delightful crisp. The chicken fried rice was bland and unremarkable. It wasn't awful but it also wasn't great. The pho was salty. It was otherwise unimpressive but did its job of filling my belly with warmth. The beverage choices were pretty limited (especially for those dodging sugar). They offer cans of Pepsi and Mountain Dew and bottles of water. Overall, it wasn't worth the effort. read more

If you don't pay attention, you might miss this small hole in the wall. The family who owns the restaurant is always so kind. Even with a small staff, they get food out in a timely manner. Their boba is delicious and they have a variety of options available when it comes to food. However, pho is in the name for a reason. There's nothing better than getting a warm bowl of pho when it's cold outside! read more

I went to this restaurant years ago and I basically liked it. It's very close to where I live, so that's a plus. I went again recently and was really wanting/craving some vegetable sushi. I was very disappointed that they don't offer any type of sushi anymore. I got chicken lo mein instead. It was OK, and rated on flavor alone - I'll give it an 8 on a 10 scale. It wasn't greasy or highly oily tasting like some other lo meins I have tried elsewhere. But, I will admit as much as you pay for it you don't get a whole lot and they skimp on the chicken and the vegetables because it's more noodles than anything. Maybe next time I'll get the chicken broccoli. read more

This place was dead, so I was nervous but I needed some pho. Luckily it exceeded my expectations. I would definitely go back. We had steak and shrimp pho and spring rolls. Also had a delicious hot tea which was nice to finish the meal with. I only noticed one worker and we were the only ones there. He was very kind and brought the food out fast. read more

Love their Pho! So delicious and healing when you're feeling under the weather. Tastes as good as the Pho I have when in San Francisco ~ authentic. read more

I stopped by on a chilly Tuesday for a late lunch after running errands in Greenwood. This place shares the building with a Family Video store on the south east corner of the Greenwood Mall property (north west corner of Frye and Madison). The signs out front and on the side mention sushi, but guess what. They no longer have sushi on the menu and the waiter confirmed that they don't have it any longer. So, scratch that from my selections. I decided to go with a cup of Rangoon Tea/Coffee based on other Yelper suggestions and followed that with a bowl of Steak Noodle Pho. The tea was served at a drinkable temperature and was surprisingly sweet! I know I've tasted the underlying flavor before, but I'm unable to determine what it reminded me of. Whatever it was, it was great. (Note that a single cup was plenty for me. I don't believe you get free refills.) Before long, by large bowl of Pho arrived with a fork and Asian soup spoon (ceramic). It also had a small plate with sliced pepper (looked like jalapeno), mint sprigs, and raw bean sprouts. I also received bottles of Hoisin and Sriracha sauces. I must admit I have had Pho three times previously and was clueless on what was proper. So I You Tubed it and solved the problem. I added the individual leaves off the mint, the sprouts, and the pepper slices and stirred them in, letting the hot broth semi-cook the new ingredients and let their flavor spread into the pho. The broth was tasty even before I added the new ingredients, so I really enjoyed the perked up flavor. At the bottom of the bowl, the long rice noodles (think white thin spaghetti) and the thin sliced beef nestled. I think the owners realize that most Hoosiers would struggle using chopsticks to fish out noodles, so the fork was a welcome tool. And whenever I speared a bit of the steak, I dipped it in the Hoisin sauce I had put on my small serving bowl that the soup spoon had been delivered in. The steak (and probably all the meat options) don't have a lot of seasoning since they soak in the broth, so dipping the pieces directly in the Hoisin makes for a much tastier bite. Yes, the meat gets a bit chewy, but because it is sliced thin, it wasn't difficult to get used to. (I am not sure how the shrimp would hold up since I am not a fan of it when it gets rubbery.) The dining room was pretty sparse, so the noise level was low even with some classic rock playing softly in the background. Not much atmosphere inside, but the bright tangerine walls and a few decorative plates kept it from looking too sterile. Overall, a good meal (huge quantity) and nice service all at an affordable price. Now, if they would just take down those Sushi signs... Review #2219 read more

Really tasty food... great Burmese selections! The noodles were great!

I had pho for the first time and at this location - it was pretty delicious! I had it at medium spice level. It was a bit spicy for me, but a GOOD spice. I went through a couple of waters and a couple "dog pants" from the heat, happily. It came out warm and a lot of it! Overall, this restaurant has really flavorful food, great prices, and they work quickly. The employees have always been helpful, too. They do not have a website; however, their menus can be found online. I've done carry out, delivery, and pick-up all at this location. read more

Pho Lai Restaurant - Steak pho and spring rolls coming up - Vietnamese Near Me - Greenwood, Indiana

Spend less than 5 minutes in here and you'll KNOW that this is a family-run, family-owned, and family-centered restaurant. Order food here and you'll have the opportunity to celebrate that characteristic with the ENORMOUS portions definitely not meant for one person to typically consume in one sitting. Most dishes here are less than $9 and could easily feed 3 for a well-portioned lunch. They come out piping hot, the flavors are light and satisfying, and for the sheer QUANTITY of food you get, the QUALITY does not suffer at all. While the menu isn't particularly unique, everything comes out exactly as you want/wish it. But let's be honest, it's awesome to find a place that serves the exact taste you're craving for with the exact high quality you want. Come by this place. It's worth your time. read more

Pho Lai Restaurant - Chicken Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Greenwood, Indiana

A very quiet laid back Pho place. I walked in and you can tell it's a small family ran business, I was a little surprised they didn't have a Pho lunch menu, but only a sushi one. I wanted to try their Shrimp Pho. But before that had to try their "Rangoon Tea", its very unique and some amazing hot tea. It's a must try Indian Coffee (as they say). I then had my Shrimp Pho, the broth was great and the noodles were on point, but as always I had to add some Hoisin sauce and Sriracha to the bowl. Yum! It was some authentic Pho. They give you a HEAVY portion of Shrimp which I was surprised and very happy about! The only thing I wish they would of had was a little more Airflow as I felt stuffy in their and also some music playing. I could hear every little sound and conversation which just made me feel a bit uncomfortable. But the food is great! read more
