On a recent cool and rainy Friday, my 8-year-old nephew wanted a date with Koko (!!) at Pho Real. How can one say no to that? Pho Real is a gem in downtown Littleton - for real! We found decent street parking and arrived around 12 noon, to a fairly packed house. My nephew picked the table near the window, which was the perfect spot. The light from outside poured into the large windows, providing a cozy yet bright vibe for lunch. The interior is large and long - allowing parties of all sizes to dine in. Our server, a nice younger man, approached us to get our drink and food order - we stuck with water and opted for hot honey garlic wontons and two medium bowls of piping hot chicken pho. The wontons arrived first - and were SO good. Perfectly fried, spicy, hot and garlicy! yum! The pho arrived shortly after, and both my nephew and I licked our lips - ready to dive in. The broth itself is good. Very tame but full of flavor. I loaded mine up with bean sprouts, jalapenos, siracha, onion and basil, while he kept it simple with just sprouts and a dash of hot sauce. The noodle to chicken ratio was perfect and tasted delicious! YUM!! The medium size is massive - and I wasn't able to finish all of my meal, but our server happily provided a to-go container for me to take the remainder home with me! Pricing is on point here and reflected in the quality of ingredients and portions - in that our meals and wontons was just over $50 with tip! I look forward to another visit! read more

The food this time was only so so. The broth for the pho was not very rich and lacked depth of flavor. We ordered three different kinds of phos but all were just okay. The hot wings were good, but not cooked all the way through to the bone. We had the honey wings. Do not order the salt and pepper calamari it was very tough and chewy. With too much batter around it. The spring rolls were good. Unfortunately, we had taken our son and daughter-in-law there and we were disappointed in the food this time. Service was great. read more

Pho Real - Salt and pepper calamari - Vietnamese Near Me - Littleton, Colorado

Accidental amazing find! We were waiting to get seated next door for tacos but the wait was longer so we peeped inside Pho Real and decided to move over here. Turned out to be a great decision! Pho Real is humble and unassuming but has quite a few special dishes unseen anywhere else. Such as the Banh Mi Crepe which was savory, fun to eat and delicious! The other dishes we tried all came loading with meats and quite tasty. Even though we didn't see a single Vietnamese wait staff, hopefully the ones working in the kitchen all were. We were well taken care of by the hard working staff though. Beats having to sit in the crowded space next door! read more

My chicken pad Thai had RAW chicken. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE. I sent my order back and they barely apologized.

Came here for a Togo lunch and I want to try more items. This review is based on the fresh spring rolls and edamame I ordered only. The rolls lacked flavor and the peanut sauce was very strange it was thick and almost gelatinous. Also for just two items it was almost $20!? The real winner was Mary the lady who took my order. She was so kind and friendly. read more

Chicken pho is the dish to get. Their broth is legit and so tasty. However most of their meat is low quality. I liked my shredded tender chicken, but the rest of my party got their meatballs and brisket and were not satisfied with the quality. The service was fast and friendly! Big menu and lots to try. read more

Ok so where do I start, so the food at Pho Real was like "For Real" good! I was taken there by my man on a cozy fall night and we sat down and looked over their menu. I'm a big sesame chicken girlie with some rice on the side. So when I saw that they had that on their menu, I had to get it. The food was really slow coming out as if they didn't have enough staff. But over all the food was very enjoyable. I also ordered a Thai tea which I never had before and that was really good. This is most definitely a delicious find for those that happen to be in downtown Littleton. read more

I've been eating here for 4 years now and I'm kicking myself for just now writing this up. I've never had a bad meal here and I've had everything from the beef stew, brisket pho , short rib pho, sesame chicken , bahn mi , spring rolls etc. everything here is amazing , the food the people the location. Truly such an amazing atmosphere cultivated here. The servers are kind and attentive, truly top tier. Big shout out to Osiel as well , such a lovely human. Walking in now after I write this :) read more

Pho Real - Short rib pho !!! My favorite - Vietnamese Near Me - Littleton, Colorado

Downtown Littleton is a street full of restaurants, bars, and small shops. So why try out yet another Vietnamese restaurant? Because this place deserves your attention for their kind and attentive service, great variety (there are tons of dishes I don't normally see like Vietnamese Fried Chicken!), and home style meals. Our normal go to Pho run is Pho Basil which is a bit out of the way. And while I will never stop going there, I am adding Pho Real to the mix. I loved their beef tendon and brisket pho. I got the medium and it was a perfect amount for me. I loved how they cut up the tendon into very manageable pieces. I was able to savor a little bit of everything in each bite. I do have to say they are very generous with the portions. But their pho broth at the bottom of the bowl was very salty. So I only finished it up what I could eat with the noodles. Which was a lot! If you're not into pho or maybe want to try something different, we also tried the beef fried rice which came with the same brisket that you find in the pho. It was a perfect cut for fried rice. We loved it as well. So don't miss out on this little restaurant! read more

Pho Real - Pho with brisket and tendon, beef fried rice (back) - Vietnamese Near Me - Littleton, Colorado

3-4ish rating. Hard to compare, coming from the best food in NYC. But a few things: 1. The wings were deep fried. I wish they were less fried, or explicitly stated as to being deep fried. 2. The bahn mi meat was tasty- BUT it was in dire need of more vegetables. I like a good pickled carrot mix and this was lacking. It tasted like a pure meat sandwich. 3. The pho was alright. Somewhat basic, the rare meat didn't excite me but I did like the tendon. The staff was friendly, the ambiance was good enough. Nothing shocking. But it took a little while to get the food, and the prices were a bit high for the quality. Will I be back? Yes, Probably- but will try other spots first. I hope the staff finds this review to tell the chef- please add more pickled veggies to the bahn mi!! read more

The flavor in this banh mi is so delicious, everything goes so well together! It's crazy how much this tofu taste like meat, I was second guessing it but they reassured me it was vegan! For 6.25 you really can't go wrong with that. read more

Here for Christmas & stopped here to get some food the food was really good. Soup could have been hotter but still good. Service was decent totally understandable it's Christmas so who wants to work. But what caught my eye really was a worker had a shirt that said "IM NOT MEAN I JUST DONT F*****N LIKE YOU". Like wow really what a shirt for work on Christmas but ok here's my money for my food merry Christmas too!!! Sure they'll laugh at this bcus they still made money of me(:! read more

My wife and I are new in town and have ordered here many times. Our last order we received something very concerning with our pho. There were insects (slugs) in/on our Basil packet. I originally did not want to post it to the internet because I don't like airing dirty laundry, however. I went in to explain the situation and show photos of what we got. The owner did not compensate us, and insisted that what I was seeing was merely a bean sprout. That's why I've decided to post this online. There are HUNDREDS of pho restaurants in the area. We will not be coming here anymore. You need to learn to take care of your customers and wash your produce lol. read more

Love Pho Real! It's a quick and easy lunch or dinner location in Downtown Littleton. We had a friend visiting who is Vegan so we wanted to ensure we could find a veggie-friendly dinner spot. Pho-Real never disappoints, the edamame was fresh and the Veggie pho came out pipping hot. We always struggle to find a pho restaurant that serves Chinese food as well, and were happy to see they do! My husband had the Sesame Chicken and it was one of the best Chinese dishes he's had in a long time! The chicken was white meat chicken breast, crunchy and had a lovely sauce. The fried rice was really good too. While you may come for the pho, but this dish was the star of the show. Pro Tip: Give this spot a try and avoid the crowds at other restaurants downtown. It'll be cheaper and yummy! read more

Very kind and prompt service. Though, I wish I enjoyed the food more. My boyfriend ordered the pho and it was SALTY. Not much beef flavor either. I ordered the fish sauce wings. While the cook was great (crispy fried battered wings), it was drowning in fish sauce. This made them so salty that I ended up having to peel off most of the skin so that I could finish the chicken. I think they would be better with the fish sauce on the side. We came in the middle of summer and it was uncomfortable since they don't run any A/C. I might come back in the future to try their banh mis. We noticed this was a popular choice for most tables around us. read more

I love Pho Real! This place is outstanding because of the service. The main guy who is working whenever I am in there is super friendly and makes me feel comfortable and welcomed every time. I love the wall decore in the restaurant and they have a few tv's in the restaurant that usually is showing a sports game. Whenever I go I always get a Bahn mi sandwich as the bread and sauce is so good. I love the Pho and the egg rolls but I have not tried anything that I have not liked. I would recommend Pho real to anyone looking for good Pho! read more

3-4ish rating...Sat on the back patio, which needed a sunshade. My wife and I ordered Pho noodle bowls, which could have had a little more flavorful broth. I also ordered the Summer roll, which was good, but could have had a little more of the BBQ pork in it. And finally ordered Vietnamese egg rolls3=5ish, it was more like Chinese egg rolls, and not sure if they were made in-house. We enjoy PHO and have been to many restaurants, and a lot of them are losing the traditions that make for a tasty meal. IMO read more

After the change of ownership is absolutely awful experience. Orders are never correct. The food does not say that tastes the same..

Delicious, satisfying and good sized portions. This was my first time and now has become my favorite Pho go to spot!

Delicious perfectly cooked noodles and meats. Ask for a side of fish sauce to break up the stickiness of the noodles. read more

Pho Real - The B5. Special Combination - Vietnamese Near Me - Littleton, Colorado

I assumed Pho Real was always packed because of its location, but after trying it myself I see it's also because it's the best pho in town! We ordered for delivery through Toast Tab because it was a lazy day, and I figured if I was going to pay someone else to do the legwork I'd finally try this place out. What's different than the other pho spots in the area is that when ordering they ask that you request a spice level for your broth. I like a kick, so I chose the "hot" version, right in the middle of mild and very hot. We also got some egg rolls and wontons. When the food arrived I dug right in and was so pleasantly surprised! The egg rolls were perfect, fried to perfection. On a to-go order they put them on top of some rice noodles so I'd be eager to try them in restaurant, as those made the bottoms a little soggy. Seriously so delicious though. Same with the wontons, though these didn't have any accoutrements so they were perfectly crisp. The broth of the pho had a perfect kick and I really enjoyed the spice level and that I had the option to add it. My husband ordered Pad Thai and it was delicious, but missing a little something to make it full flavored. I'm very curious to eat in here, I bet it's even better! Definitely the best of the pho places I've tried in the area and I'll probably exclusively order from here now. read more

Coming from Toronto to down in Colorado, I was recommended to scope out this viet resto and here we are at Pho Real. From the fish sauce wings to the Banh Mi crepe - these dishes blew my mind on how they could a bit of a new touch to viet dishes. Would highly recommend checking this spot out if you're in the area. Also grab the viet iced coffee to go read more

I. Love. Pho. Like a lot. Needless to say I take every opportunity to dine on the delicious noodle soup anytime the chance presents its self. So on a rainy fall day Marissa C and I found ourselves craving a steaming bowl of pho - So we made or way to Pho Real to check out the goods! THE SPACE: Pho Real is legit super cute inside. The walls have a long booth style bench with various tables and chairs push up to them and a variety of socially distanced tables throughout. There's a large mural that was opposite where we were seated that had various pho related sayings and silly takes on song lyrics. It was a super fun and comfortable space! THE SUSTENANCE: We both have simple tastes with our pho - rare steak all the way! However we are both picky about broth flavor and having all the delicious additions to customize our pho. Marissa C is all about the basil, lime, sriracha, and jalapenos. While I mix in bean sprouts, lime, hoisin sauce, sriracha, and jalapenos. To each there own, right? Not to mention that the fun with pho is truly making it your own. Well Pho Real has some killer broth and it's served up piping hot with all the additions to make it exactly how you want it. THE SIPS: If you've read any of my previous pho restaurant reviews, you know that I'm a sucker for Thai Iced Tea. So naturally I chose to sip on the black tea coconut milk drink that I always crave. It was the perfect pairing to my soup! THE SERVICE: Service with a side of humor? Our server was super personable! When he stopped by to drop off our meals he purposely stated the wrong order and then chuckled as he said he was just kidding and repeated the correct order before placing our steaming bowls of pho before us. He then checked back to ensure we were enjoying our meal and to drop off our check. Pho Real was definitely one of my favorite pho experiences this year. I can't wait to stop back by and get my pho fix again! **COVID Tip: They were limiting their dine-in service, mask wearing was being enforced, tables are spaced to allow social distancing, sanitizing tables between diners, offering to go orders, and I believe I saw some third party delivery drivers (such as DoorDash and Grub Hub) during our visit. They clearly have their COVID protocols dialed in! read more

My family and I have been coming to Pho Real for 9 years! It is a wonderful feeling to know that your food is safely handled by some of the kindest people! The owner and all the staff are amazing! We make it a point to show our friends and family this gem, whether they live in Colorado or visiting from other states. It's fun to come in and see new items on the menu or new atmospheric elements! We have tried other Pho location both here in Colorado and Southern California, and we always say "it's just not the same". My family is grateful to have the opportunity to visit Pho Real and are grateful for the connections we have made because of this wonderful food and the people. read more

Great customer service & love the manager and his family! Awesome pho & fair prices, the small pho is pretty big & super fulfilling, as pictured. The prices are 12 for small, 13 for medium & large is 15; also they have some good looking side dishes based on what everyone else got. Friendly staff & customers, lots of seating options as well! May take a while to find some parking as it's on a busy Littleton street downtown BUT again, so worth the walk as food and service is great! read more

I have passed Pho Real often after moving to Littleton in May. I went to vote in person on Election Day, and as I walking home, I thought I deserved to treat myself after performing my civic duty. And I was really hungry, too. The service was fantastic, my pho came out quickly, and it totally hit the spot! It was really good. They practice COVID guidelines, but I was able to see a few other tables (further away) order food other than pho. I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! read more

Great pho (that broth!), fantastic banh mi, friendly and attentive service. Thank you!

My favorite place, I go there almost weekly and never leave a review because I keep forgetting. Chili oil is the best here I get a jar of it to go sometimes lol, and their pho is the best, the best taste I've ever had, never bland, I really hope they never change their recipe because it is absolutely perfect how it is. Super fast as well sometimes it comes out after 5 minutes of ordering it's crazy. Good quality and service and great location read more

Friendly service and excellent food! A personal favorite is the egg rolls and rare steak Pho!

Hello from Houston! So we looked this place up and it had great reviews so we decided to try it! Let me tell you Service was amazing! The gentlemen who took care of us was amazing overall! Now the Pho looorrrdyyyy it was incredible ! The broth was so delicious in flavor the noodles perfectly cooked my fav was the fact that the jalapeños to garnish the Pho were actually spicy and it gave the whole broth a kick! Our little nugget loves noodles and she gobbled the kids pho right up. I'd definitely come again when visiting. A great recommendation ! Thank you for the great overall experience! read more

Vegans can eat here! Veggie broth and lots of fresh veggies. Clean and well maintained interior. Wait staff is by committee and is sometimes a little slower than just having one person wait your table but I think they make up for it by being very friendly and helpful. Our appetizer was tofu spring rolls. They came out after about a 20 minute wait. This is not normal for them but it was very busy. The rolls were fresh and very flavorful. There was a vegan peanut sauce that really added to my enjoyment. It was nutty and not overly sweet. We all ordered PHO. All the vegans were happy. They bring out a side plate of fresh basil and bean sprouts for you to add to your PHO. PHO was served at just the right temperature - it didn't burn my lips, tongue nor mouth - yet was still hot enough to be warm and inviting. All the vegetables were cut small and the noodles were soft. I really enjoyed the diversity of flavors and textures. I will definitely return again. read more

It was disappointing visit. Its staffed by friendly servers and looks clean and ac working good on this day. What's the problem? 1. Vegi tray for pho was ridiculously petite. 2. No small sauce tray? 3. Overly sweet broth. Why do we make the broth so sweet? 4. Broth had no flavor or... richness. Watered down too much? Overall, no matter what the history of this restaurant is, it was very disappointing. However, I may come back and try their non soup based dishes and enjoy with beer offerings. read more

Skimpy on the broth and meat.. place used to be better! Would check out other neighboring phos

Pho here, Pho there, Pho everywhere. Let's face it, there's a million Pho places out there; but if you haven't tried Pho Real in Littleton, then you're missing out. Charming atmosphere but don't sit near the windows when it's cold. Ok let's get back to why this place rocks, great prices, crab wontons with actual crab in them, grilled shrimp are huge and delicious (this from a person who usually detests shrimp), pad Thai and rice bowls all worthy of a few happy dances, and the staff are kind and friendly. I fear the wait times for seating may increase on weekends with this review; but I'm willing to take a hit for team and wait while you enjoy their great food. Pho Real people, this place is easily a step above all the rest. You won't regret it. read more

We came here before and had Pho and just had to come again! Both times we had amazing and authentic tasting food at a great price. Many places in Denver are very over priced, but here is very reasonable. From the Pho to the Noodle Bowl to the Fried Rice, every dish was flavorful with big portions, I highly recommend! read more

We get takeout regularly from this pho place. We like the pork meatball sandwich (very good, my friend is having an affair with this menu item, and strongly recommends). I get the grilled chicken noodles, and it comes with lettuce, carrot, cucumber, grilled chicken and rice noodles, and some sweet/spicy broth. Really good, about 1-1.5 servings, and I almost cry every time I get my grilled chicken with noodles. Good sized parking lot behind restaurant. Only complaint is the service is a little slow for the amount of business sometimes. read more
