OMG MY NEW TOP PHO SPOT!!! It honestly surpassed any expectations I may have had. The food was soooo good. We got it to go and it was fast and everyone working was so sweet and helpful. The environment is so mellow and calming I felt so at ease. We got the Seafood Pho, Vegetable Egg Rolls and the Beef Pho. Everything was amazing. The sweet and sour broth in the seafood pho was actually to die for. I will rave about this place to anyone who hears. The craziest part is we got it to go, so I can only imagine how good it is when you dine-in. Will definitely become regulars here. read more

We found this lovely secret on Google Maps as a result of hunger pangs and major traffic between Mesa and Cave Creek. We placed a takeaway order. The menu was extensive, in English and Vietnamese, and very clearly written. The waitress was also the hostess, phone answerer, and busser of dirty tables. She was patient and precise as she glided around the dining room. Our orders were flawless and leanly packaged (no leaks on the car ride home). We ordered two different pho entrees, an assortment of spring rolls, and fried dumplings. The sides of herbs and bean sprouts were fresh! We had enough to heat up the next day for lunch. We will definitely return. read more

This place knows how to make an excellent broth. The portions are plenty and of excellent quality. I always get the Pho Ga (chicken), so I can't vouch for any of the other dishes. The service is great and the atmosphere is wonderful. Just a heads up, cash is better than a card because you save $$$$. read more

Great veggie broth pho. Serving size is also good. We highly recommend this place if you are looking for good pho.

COME FOR THE PHO!! I myself wasn't the biggest fan, but my friends really liked this place so I'll give it a 4 star rating. The ambiance was dark and dated, I didn't like the vibes inside. But for the food, my friends all loved their pho dishes! I'm not a huge soup fan and wanted a lighter meal, so I got the A1 which is a sampler of spring rolls, egg rolls, and coconut shrimp. The egg rolls were the best part, so crispy with yummy meat inside! The spring rolls had barely any meat in them, only in half of the roll. The coconut shrimp was meh and barely had any coconut flavor, it just tasted like fried shrimp. The water tasted kind of weird, like it had a lemon flavor but none of the cups had lemon slices in them. So perhaps if you come, get the pho, since that seems to be the winner here! read more

Hello neighbors. Came to let you all know NOT to try pho Leo on main st and Guthrie I called and placed my order and was told 30 minutes. Walked in 30 minutes after I placed my order this is how everything went down. "Just one?" "No I'm here to pick my order." "Ok just wait" She didn't ask my name or any other way to identify my order. So I sat and waited until another server came out. "Excuse me, I'm here to pick up my order. The other lady didn't ask my name before telling me to wait" "What's your name?" Michelle "You need to wait." This is where I started to get upset because how are you going to get rude when I'm asking about my order. "Can you tell me how much longer it's going to be?" "Wait." He walked into the kitchen, walked out did something, walked back into the kitchen and then again came out trying to take someone else's order. I waited another 10 minutes and STILL no answer about my order. I got up and walked to the opening of the kitchen "Hello?! How much longer is this going to take??!!!" "I'm asking now you need to be patient." Over 40 minutes of waiting and you want me to be more patient than I've already been?!?!! I told them to cancel the order and walked out. I recommend THAT YOU STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS ESTABLISHMENT and their very rude servers. read more

VERY good pho! I had the seafood pho, my husband had the brisket pho. Casual ambiance, excellent service.

When you are in East Mesa, try this Vietnamese place. Lots of parking space, a nice little lady serves you with a smile. The food is arthetic and better than most Vietnamese restaurants out there. The place is a little dark for my liking, and I think white paint could go a long way. The noodle dish (bun) is perfect for hot summer days. read more

Have been ordering the rare steak pho here for over 4 years now and it's the BEST. Hidden gem in mesa. Broth is so authentic & delicious

My friends and I were craving some quality Vietnamese food and Pho Leo did not disappoint. First off their service when it comes to carry out orders and making sure everything is accurate and neatly packed deserves a 5 star in itself. We ordered Leos special #1, summer rolls, Pho Tai/ Chin #17/ Duoi Bo #25/ Vegetable and some Vietnamese coffee. The broths were very rich and they each packed a bunch of meat or vegetables. The broth didn't have that strong MSG taste and the portion sizes were perfect. Flavors were on point and the meat in special #1 were seasoned and cooked perfectly. The menu can be a little overwhelming since they have so many options, but they have everything for everyone. Prices are reasonable and each entree was plentiful. Highly recommend this place if you want authentic Vietnamese food. Give them around 15-30 mins to prep your food when you order carry out. read more

Pho Leo - Leo's special #1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Spring rolls were good but the fried rice and the pho was horrible the pho has no flavor what so ever and it came out luke warm it didn't even cook the rare steak the fried rice was full of frozen veggies it was over kill for sure and it was supposed to be bbq pork fried rice we are not finishing the food we only ate the spring rolls And then she comes over and says it cost 3.00 to use my debit card here!! 3.00 !!! That's a rip off imagine if they charging everyone 3.00 per customer to pay there tab!!! How much extra money is that they are raking in!! Wow never coming here again!!! Is that even legal!? lol wow ain't no way I'm paying 3.00 for you to run my card to pay you for your food at your establishment I don't mind a small fee but since I work in restaurants I know for a fact this is excessive the normal fee is .50 cents there's no way 3.00 is even legal these people are literally stealing and if your using your card here your a fool! read more

I can't get over how generous the portions were. The pho was absolutely delicious. The owners were so sweet and friendly. Only bottled water, so be aware of that if you're cheap like me lol. Will definitely go back. Would definitely recommend. read more

This place went from great to terrible in 3 minutes. My wife and I went there to have late lunch before I picked up kids. My wife ordered large pho for under $15 ($14,95 or something like that). I ordered a rice dish for similar price--under $15 for sure. We weren't thirsty, so we didn't order any drink or water. Lady brings us two bottled waters and gives me an unassured look, which I couldn't understand until after the meal. At the time, my wife and I looked at each other in surprise, but we figure maybe their water filter is getting serviced or whatever. Food is great. Tastes great. Portion is great. We talked about how we can make this our new "spot." We ask for bill and receive the hand-written receipt. It shows $35.42 (plus or minutes few cents) without a breakdown (itemization). We start thinking out loud.. we both ordered things under $15. Tax is less than 10%. How could this price be? And of course, the lady charged us for the bottled waters...WITHOUT EVEN TELLING US or marking the bill or anything. We actually hadn't opened either of the bottles, so we had a quick discussion about pointing it out and returning it, but since we can take the bottles with us, we just decide to pay. I'm not 100% done eating at this point, so my wife tenders the bill using my card. I'm about to sign the merchant copy, and it showed $38.42. I take the merchant copy to her and ask her what happened. And she points at the pink sticker on the wall that says something like "pay with cash save $3," and says to me, "I tell your wife already." I ask my wife, and she tells me that she was told that we can save $3 if we paid cash. We don't carry cash, and she thought paying with cash will deduct $3 off the bill. I would think so, too--by the sign or what the lady said. Are we weird or dumb for automatically thinking that paying with cash will give us a $3 discount and paying with card will just end up paying the billed amount? Great start--very sour finish. If you want to pay with cash and order drinks, this place is recommendable. Likewise if you have time to argue with them for giving you unordered bottled waters or don't mind paying $3 for card processing. You have been warned. read more

My first pho spot in Arizona and it was delicious! I was in town visiting a friend for a few days so I knew I had to make a stop and find something to satisfy my craving. It's always so hard trying to find the perfect pho spot but this right here, is mine! I got to try my favorite, the oxtail pho with rib. Finding a good pho restaurant is good, but a pho restaurant that serves oxtail pho? Even better! The broth is so rich and flavorful but I love mine spicy. It taste just like home. I spent about $17 (I think) and that is not bad at all! I would pay that any time. The service was pretty standard. Our server was super nice and sweet. We talked about the history of the restaurant and how it belongs to her family. Can't wait go back and try the other foods! read more

so yummy in my tummy. 5 stars. I got the beef egg rolls and the veggie spring rolls. very delicious read more

Pho Leo isn't the closest option for me when it comes to pho, but it is certainly the best. The portions are plenty, the broth is flavorful, and the ingredients are good. I always choose between their combination, brisket and tendon, or tendon only. It's normally not full at this restaurant, and every time I've been here, they took the order right away and the food came out quickly. The attitude of the service is a hit or miss, but lately it's been a more positive one. The restaurant itself is dim, but pleasant. Overall, this is the place to go for pho, and I highly recommend you give this place a shot--dine in or takeout. read more

Walked in at 7pm on a Saturday. Place was dead. We were sat then waiting 10+ minutes and nobody came over. Definitely did not feel welcome.

Got 2 pho and shrimp for $50. Way overpriced for frozen food with cold broth. Absolute scam of a restaurant.

I have been coming here for years, and they never disappoint. I have suggested this location to many family and friends and everyone loves it. Their pho is amazing, and they're super friendly. I definitely recommend read more

We came to this place thinking it would be good due to the reviews. The lady rushed me to order, was staring at me and tapping her pen the whole time. Very aggressive. We spent a good amount of money here and ordered to go because it had been a long day and we didn't want to cook. We came home to find the meat for our pho was not cooked. They gave us a bag of FROZEN meat. Awful experience. Won't be coming back. read more

Pho Leo - Frozen, raw meat. - Vietnamese Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

In a small strip mall on main Street, pho leo is a great place to grab delicious Vietnamese food. Can't ever go wrong with a nice bowl of pho but they have a good mix of other great Vietnamese food to choose from We really wanted to grab a bowl of soup and pho leo came to mind on how great the soup is. We ordered a large bowl of the pho with brisket and rare beef. First off the portion is huge and easily can be shared by two people. The broth is delicious and the addition of all the sprouts, lime and meats, it's a great soup. Adding a little of the Sriracha and plum sauce, it's just the right amount of sweet and heat. We did get some shrimp spring rolls too. It comes in 2 and they are one of the largest spring rolls I've seen. Probably around 6 inch in size, it's got all the elements of a great spring roll and the addition of the peanut sauce, it's a great side dish to order Pho leo is a great place to grab some good vietnamese. I'm looking to come back to try out some of the other great dishes. read more

This was the best pho I've had in my lifetime. Amazing service and excellent portions for the pricing. Absolutely love this place, ate it so fast I saw god for a moment. read more

The food is good but if you're sensitive when it comes to customer service, this might not be the place for you. They would usually give good customer service but when it comes to the old lady, it depends. I've been there several times, dine in and take out, and the old lady is not nice when she is in a bad mood, but she can also be sweet. Trust me, sometimes I feel like asking her what's her deal. read more

We come here all the time and it's the best Vietnamese food in AZ. Love the server lady that works there. She always remembers our order when we walk in. Highly recommends this restaurnt. Best grilled pork spring roll ever. Can't get enough of this place. It's just far for us and we come from Scottsdale every week. read more

Pho Leo has delicious Pho. This is my favorite because it's authentic. I'm kinda boring and always get rare steak Pho. My daughter, on the other hand, is very adventurous and loves the tripe and oxtail. The spring rolls and egg rolls are so good and the prices here are reasonable. The service is fast and there's always parking available. The ambiance could use updating, but I will let it slide since the food is so good. read more

if you like MSG, then this is your jam. It was so salty and artificial. I couldn't finish it. It was expensive and little lady that was serving me have natural attitude never coming back. read more

Came to this place because the spring rolls looked delicious and it did not disappoint! Got 2 orders of the shrimp and pork spring rolls, combo pho, and rare steak only pho. Beware this place is very slow. We got our spring rolls within 10 minutes of ordering but the pho didn't come for another 15 minutes... Pho shouldn't take this long. Other places we've been to the pho comes out before the spring rolls.. Food wise, the shrimp and pork spring rolls were fat, rolled very well, and peanut sauce was delicious. They were so good that we ordered more to go. The pho had clean tasting broth that was full of beefy flavor and they gave a decent amount of meat to boot. read more

I'm Vietnamese and have had lots of pho in my lifetime from many places all over the world. That said, the pho here was very disappointing. We ordered via Grubhub, the broth was hot, but the noodles were refrigerator cold, which is strange. Not a big deal, I'll warm those up along with the broth, the issue was the broth was extremely bland -- barely any flavor. Adding lots of hoisin sauce couldn't save it. I even added pho base, which couldn't either. Maybe it's because we ordered closer towards the end of the night (before 8pm Saturday) and they just added a bunch of water for tomorrow's batch, not sure, but the pho fully missed the mark. The Nem cuon was also mediocre. Most places have a fried egg roll skin inside. On the positive note, the portion was good. read more

Perhaps the worst Vietnamese food I have ever had. The service was quick but unfriendly. The inside was clean but old. This is poverty level food at best. Not sure how this restaurant is in business. ‍ read more

It's been a while find such a great spot for Vietnamese food in town. Nice and fast service, good for late night crave of good Pho. Highly recommend to try out their special Pho and the spring roll read more

Awful service. I went with my sister and the woman gave us a single water bottle to share between us without a single cup to be able to pour it into. Luckily we're sisters and din't mind sharing the bottle. Egg rolls didn't come with shredded carrots and daikon or lettuce and we had to request it. They did not have nuoc beo (onion oil) or chili oil to add into the pho. This place is very stingy and barely gave me any basil and beans sprouts to add to the pho and the fish sauce that came with the egg rolls was about a tablespoon worth. I'm well versed in eating pho, being Vietnamese myself. The lemonade ordered was so tart and not sweetened and the iced Vietnamese coffee I ordered was barely chilled and tasted a few days old instead of fresh. Definitely not worth my time and money. read more

This is hands down the best pho in mesa ! I've tried other places and nothing compares to this restaurant. Pho and spring rolls are very good. The little older lady who is usually at the register is so funny and if you decide to try this place please don't take her personality seriously or personal. Lol keep in mind everyone has a different personality. Anyways I love this place !! 10/10 read more

We love this local mom and pop place! Owners are super friendly. Their pho broth is delicious! Everything we have tried over the years has been great! read more

I always enjoy coming here. The food is really good. The egg rolls come exactly how they should, with mint, lettuce, and dipping sauce. And always hot hot hot! The stir fried egg noodles were so good and it was enough to serve 5 people. I ate it for days. Also, the pho is always delicious!! read more

Looks shady but damn the Pho is good. I got the meatless bone broth Pho and my husband got the Bun Bo Hue. I think this was the first time I didn't need to add anything to the Pho since the flavor was perfect. It was rich and fragrant. You could taste the lemongrass and the beef stock. So good. My husband's dish was fantastic as well. He really enjoyed all the meat (except the tendon) and the spicy broth reminded me of my Viet friend from elementary school who's mom made the exact same thing and it was always so good even if you end up sniffling for the rest of the day. The waitress was nice and prompt. The only issue is it is not a very comfortable atmosphere. Its a little too dark and there is some broken furniture in a heap in the corner. But, everything was clean and with the delicious food, we will be going back. read more

Got the pho and a water bottle it was $27. The broth was cold and the broth was extremely salty. Would not recommend
