This mom and pop Vietnamese restaurant is incredibly underrated and a must try! I love how their pricing is very fair compared to other Vietnamese restaurants, and their portions are HUGE. I've had their pho, Bo luc lac (shaken beef), bun thit nuong cha gio, and hu tieu and they're all fantastic and flavorful. The Bo luc lac's portion was HUGE and it's only $12.50! The beef was cooked to a perfect medium rare, covered in a velvety delicious sauce, and was loaded with sautéed onions and bell peppers. In the picture, the protein and veggies literally tower over the rice. It was soo much food, I took half of it to-go. I'd normally see this dish priced at over $15 easily for a fraction of the meat that Pho OK gives. No thank youuuu In general, no matter what dish you order, they do not skimp on their meats like other restaurants. I'm not exaggerating about their portion - just take a look at the picture! I will always come and get my Vietnamese fix here and highly recommend everyone to try their Bo Luc Lac, bun thit nuong cha gio, and other dishes! read more

Pho OK - Bo luc lac (shaken beef) I tried to include the chopsticks to compare the size of this plate and how much food I got! - Vietnamese Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Yummy. By far the best pho we have had in North Texas. The crispy egg roll was delicious , big and priced right. The combination pho was great. The soup was flavorful and had enough meat to satisfy. The other soup, I forgot the name, Bo buen ..? Was also very good. We came lunchtime, so it was packed and our food came after 20 minutes or so. Even then, we we definitely come back. read more

Could not believe the food. It felt like I was eating their grandma cooking. Extremely family oriented, the cashier is the chef when the grandma is doing something. The food was spectacular. They only had soup noodles left when I got in at 630pm. They close at 7 daily and Saturday at 5pm. The only reason why they aren't 5 stars is because the hours are too short and I understand because it's family. Definitely come here when you in Dallas read more

Pho OK - Beef frank and brisket cooked - Vietnamese Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I wanted to love this mom and pop place, but I wasn't super impressed overall. The dining area was messy, and there were a handful of uncleared tables. I guess the staff just leaves the tables as is after guests leave until the end of the day (lol?). The spring rolls were a nice size and delicious! The pho had a lot of meat and noodles for the price, but the meat cuts were a bit too fatty for me, and the broth didn't taste as fresh, and was too oily. read more

FOOD Pho Combination (Pho Dac Biet) - It was alright. The noodles were clumped together at first. The broth is ok. Decent amount of meat throughout. Pretty alright overall and the cost is a good deal for Pho! VIBES Very traditional/classic Vietnamese restaurant vibes. Open seating at various tables. Alright with cleanliness. All the condiments and utensils are at the table to use which is nice. Minimally decorated and just gives off good family/home vibes. SERVICE Service is a bit on the slower side and it probably is just because they don't have that many people for staff. I ordered a Vietnamese Coffee and by the time I was almost done with my pho they got it done and out for me. My friend also ordered Banh Mi to go and it took at least 20-25 minutes to get it. Other than the wait times, everyone is friendly. read more

Really good pho: - not so small place serving pho, other soup and some rice dishes - we had pho with tenderloin and brisket: great broth (rich and savory), plenty of sprouts and basil on the side - great price - nice people read more

Delicious food for a delicious price! Recommend getting the 'Bun Thit Nuong Chai Gio' (Dry vermicelli noodles with sliced grilled pork and egg rolls). Comes with a lot of meat and two big egg rolls along with a side of fish sauce to dip or drizzle over for around $10. Service was slower than usual when I went (waited for about 15-20 mins it felt like, maybe two or three other tables eating) but food definitely made up for it. Visit 'Pho OK' for affordable food that's more than just 'OK'! read more

The service is slow because they're so busy! The prices are great! It's like a neighborhood amenity. I'm reluctant to review it because I don't want people to go. I will say it's a bit grungy inside but again it's utilitarian. Cheap banh mi, solid pho and bún! Oh and the spring rolls are a must!! read more

Great experience, the pho was amazing and the portion was value for its price. (11 dollars for a large bowl). The environment was quaint but service was a bit slow so often you will need to find a worker to start your order. If you're coming for the food though, it's worth it :) read more

If you only want to be serviced like god, this may not the best place for you. But if you want authentic pho and other Vietnamese food with very affordable price, you won't be disappointed. I have been here regularly and really like this place. It is a gem hidden in the city. The only thing I could complain is that they do not run business until late everyday. Sometime dinner is not an option at this place. Other than that, I always highly recommend this place to my friend. read more

I used to come here at LEAST twice a week on my lunch break. It is family owned restaurant with unbeatable prices. Food always comes out piping hot and fast. I can't stress enough how delicious their food is. 10/10 read more

Their food is amazing! First time here with my baby and wife and we had a great experience and delicious food.We definitely found our new favorite Pho spot! read more

Their beef quality is good for the money in general. But if you eat here, you'd better be in excellent health because you need to outlive the time it takes for your order to actually arrive. There have been days when I seriously thought I would not have made it. read more

Good pho and great egg rolls! The main downside was the shaken stir fried beef... tasted like charcoal/smoky so I had to add sriracha to mask it. Good eggrolls are hard to come across but this place really makes it from scratch and I can tell. Small intimate place. Service was good. read more

This place provides amazing value for great food. Great homemade pho spot in Richardson.

Love coming here to eat my brisket pho. Their egg rolls are huge and delish! My pho is full of flavor and the sides veggies are fresh. The noodles are cooked just right. Comfy food especially refreshing when you're a little under the weather. It will perk you up to good health. The family is always nice and helpful. read more

Quality are great customer service nice. Good is good better then pho Bac give more meat.

Great food, service, atmosphere. Best value for $$ around! I like the shaken beef! Great flavor, not too spicy and the best flavor!

This place serves fantastic pho, not just OK pho. It has a lot of seating but we went for an early dinner, around 5, and there were a few other tables eating. Every table should be full, all the time! The service was great! It's a family business and they made us feel like family. We ordered both the fresh spring rolls and the egg rolls. These are the best egg rolls I think I've ever had. They were flavorful and fried fresh. It came with 3 egg rolls and a side of sweet chili sauce. It was $3.50 for 3 egg rolls, let me repeat, 3 egg rolls for $3.50!!! I ordered the small beef tenderloin pho. It was flavorful, hot, and came with tons of bean sprouts, lime and mint. I will definitely be back on a cold day. read more

This little establishment is pretty unassuming so you easily can pass it without knowing. I had good amount of parking around it so it was easy for me to park for my weekday work lunch. The small combo pho came quickly with all the standard fresh veggies. The broth is flavorful but it is on the heavier side of salt and MSG. But hey, no one should come here for organic super healthy food right? I had no problem finishing it in like 5 mins, every drop of it.... Remember, the small is not that big, so don't be surprised. Total almost $11 including $2 tip. So I guess it is not too bad. read more

Pho OK - Combo pho (small) - Vietnamese Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I am a Pho addict and this place has made my addiction even worse. The quality of noodle and beef is better than most other pho places I've been to. The owner and his son are extremely nice and do their best to make sure you are satisfied. This place is 3 minutes from my job and I come at least 3 times a week. All I have to do is tell them I will come in 5-10 minutes (since I only have a 1 hour lunch and want to make the most of it) and they have my pho hot and ready within 3 minutes of walking in... The broth is extremely tasty, they are not stingy with the beef or noodles either. Best quality pho I've had and for the best price as well. You will not be let down. This place is a hidden gem. read more

Pho OK - Beef Noodle Soup - Vietnamese Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I was fully expecting reverse psychology based on the name of this establishment. I was expecting it to be PHO good or PHO excellent. As it turns out, it was just OK. Not great. Broth was bland, noodles a little overcooked, and chicken was chewy. I can forgive a average bowl of PHO because PHO is just amazing, you know? Noodles and warmth and chicken and just overall goodness even when it's not great and is only OK. What tipped the scales for this Shinigami is I had to wait an extra five minutes for the plate with basil and jalapeños, and the other goodies that you put in the bowl. Not sure what the delay there was. Also I ordered sweetened coffee with condensed milk at the same time I ordered my entrée. I finished my entrée, which was a large bowl, and went up to the register. I have to backtrack and explain that I saw one of the servers sipping on a freshly made iced sweetened condensed milk coffee drink as I was eating and wondered where mine was. So when I went to pay my bill, I mentioned that I did not get my iced coffee and should not be charged for it. The server said oh it's right here would you like it to go? I would have actually liked to drink it with my meal thank you, although perhaps the server who was drinking hers decided that she should have her iced coffee before I got mine. In the scheme of things based on the world we live in today this is all minor but the point of this entire website or application is to review a restaurant based on the quality of their food and service. I was shocked to discover that PHO OK is actually less than OK. I wanted it to be better. Also, I should mention that the ambience is very dreary and at the back of the restaurant, there's a corner with a bunch of boxes and supplies all stacked up where seating should be. Maybe clean up your restaurant a bit guys so it's a little bit more inviting and people don't notice that your PHO GA is below average and not just OK. My first and last time eating here and I won't be back. read more

OMG THIS IS DEF A HIDDEN GEM!! First of all the prices AMAZING! The food portions are so big and filling, my beef pho had so much meat and I ordered a sma!! The flavor is SOOOO DELICIOUS I ordered combination Beef Pho and asked if it could be spicy and he brought me a sauce on the side that was chefs kiss! I'm a spicy lover and that Pho was the best thing I've ever had hands down! I been to lots of different places and I have to say I will be driving the 45 mins to come and eat here WOW!! read more

Food: 2/5 Interior: 3/5 Service: 4/5 It seems like a family-run business. The service was good. However, the food wasn't to me and my party's tastes. The pho broth was too sweet and didn't have a very spice-filled aroma to it. We also tried the Vietnamese coffee (cafe sua da), and it was incredibly strong and had too much condensed milk. It was overwhelming. Can't say that I'll come back again. read more

Despite arriving on a busy weekday during the lunch hour, service was very fast. I've resisted trying Vietnamese food and it is my loss. I ordered Pho with flank steak and my husband ordered vermicelli noodles with fried pork. Our Server was attentive even though the dining room was at least 75% full and there were only two Severs. Our order was taken and arrived about ten minutes later. The fragrance of the Pho hit us before it even arrived at our table. It smelled unusual but incredible, like a delectable combination of tea and broth. The taste was everything promised; I loved it. My husband handed me a small bite to try of his lunch and it was actually even better than my Pho! We also tried the spring rolls with peanut sauce, which was also good. All in all we had an incredible lunch in pleasant surroundings for under $30 before tip. The portion sizes were perfect for lunch. We will absolutely be back. I hardly ever give a 10 out of 10, but this place deserves it. read more

A must visit spot. Very cheap and affordable and the portions are huge. Customer service is also always amazing, I'm a regular customer and haven't been disappointed a single time and neither will you. Only complaint is that they don't close later. 6/5 stars read more

One of the best pho places in the Dallas area! It's a small restaurant but very clean inside. The owner is very nice and I got my food within ten minutes. The texture of the noodles were perfect. The beef was really good quality and the broth was flavor-packed. The portion size was huge and it was less than $10 for a bowl. For the taste and price, this place is very hard to beat! read more

We went there to try out their takeout food and portions before placing a catering order of 40+ Rice Plates. This is a small place. I got there at 11 am when it opened and 4 families were already waiting to get in. This was on a Tuesday. I opened my Egg Rolls box and I could not believe it! These were the homemade Vietnamese egg rolls I used to eat years ago near my old workplace. These egg rolls were so good. I opened the rice plate boxes and everything was delicious. You can't beat their prices! My husband said "They're not Pho OK but Pho Delicious!" read more

Pho was a bit too sweet for my liking. Meats were plenty but some were chewy. I used to like this place but it seemed to have gone downhill recently. I'd prefer pho tay do over this place read more

Been craving pho since this pandemic thing... finally a sit down restaurant is open! (Takeout pho is not the same) Came in with low expectations, especially as there only a few people during the pandemic reopening.. What ilI received were two bowls of delicious flavorful Pho! They soup is very balanced, non fatty, not salty, not watery and tons of flavor and meat, meatballs 'bien' seemed made in-house, and the family were kind... Not pho OK... Pho Wonderful! Happy to see the reopening.. Only one suggestion, the condiments (bottles plum sauce, Saraccha, seemed sticky.. read more

My wife accidentally ordered pick-up from here instead of another Vietnamese place down the street. So glad she did. I've ordered Banh Mi from pretty much every Vietnamese restaurant within a 10 minute drive from my office in Richardson and within many miles via Uber Eats to my home. I moved here from Houston several years ago and hit up many, many Vietnamese places there as well specifically for Banh Mi. I had looked at ordering from this place in the past, but on their website - it says that Banh Mi was coming soon. My wife, thinking she was ordering from somewhere else, ended up ordering Banh Mi along with her pho. Out of many Vietnamese restaurants I've eaten from over the years - this is by far my favorite Banh Mi. Great presentation, fresh vegetables, tasty meat, delicious bread, and a good amount of that magic sauce that many restaurants seem to lack. Excellent spring rolls and pho too. This will be my go-to place for Vietnamese moving forward. read more

Food is hot and great! They might take a little bit more time for lunch but it's because they make it fresh. Affordable price also. Definitely recommend read more

Excellent pho and spring rolls. Generous portions at reasonable prices. My new goto place for Vietnamese.

Love this place! Great food, great portions and great price with nice staffs! When you togo, they even doodle cute characters on your container :) our family's go to pho place. We came from Los Angeles so we are picky with our pho too! read more

It has now been more than a year as we continue to order to-gos weekly at Pho OK. Got to try more dishes through the year, and everything is great! In addition to Hu Tieu (with egg noodles), my wife loves their Pho Tai also now; the amount of meat they give is 2 to 3x more than all other pho places. Food is fresh and delicious, the portion is huge, and staff is friendly and nice. read more
