Great food and wonderful service they do a great job with pick up and have great portions. I never leave hungry. Love the Bhan Mi

Definitely really good place too eat! Al the times I have gone, it has turned out great! unfortunately the one day I go and nothing tasted right like they normally do.. and I don't stray from my usual picks! idk what was going on in the kitchen, but it was not to my liking! read more

Don't think so! The food pho'king sucks ass! read more

This is legit pho. I found this place on Yelp while in Reno for work. I ordered the Pho Tai and combination egg roll, spring roll, potstickers. I asked that my noodles be left uncooked - it's just better to boil them for a few seconds at home; they seemed pretty stoked to hear me make the special request. I was disappointed to learn that their Thai tea came bottled. I'd never experienced that before. Loved the broth. It was seasoned perfectly. I just wish I could've finished the whole bowl of Pho; they give you plenty. The egg rolls and spring rolls were good. I was disappointed in the potstickers. They were too dry and appeared previously frozen or over cooked. The service was excellent. I was greeted immediately upon entering and my food came out lightening fast. I will definitely return! read more

Last time I ate here I enjoyed my meal, but this time here are my complaints, 1st the large bowl shrunk in half, they serve it on a plate now, so it looks big, but the bowl is smaller, most often I get #1 no tendon/tripe, rare meat on the side. I do the rare meat on the side, because most places the broth is boiling, so when they add the rare meat, it's well done, tough, and chewy by the time you get it. I like to use the soup to cook my meat according to my liking. The rare meat was was giant piece not even cut up, I finally got into 2 giant pieces, then that's when I discovered the visual illusion on the bowl, because my meat wouldn't cook in the Pho, because there wasn't much broth, because the bowl was small. I have ordered Pho #1 at least 100 times, so my method has worked 100 times, this time it didn't. I don't know if the soup sat in the window for a while and cooled down, I don't know if their broth wasn't proper temp, not sure, but I couldn't eat my Pho because the Rare Meat didn't cook enough where I felt comfortable eating it. I knew it would need to be nuked or zapped in my Flavor Wave. Next there was tons of dust particles floating in the air, I mean it looked like snow flakes there were so many particles in the air, I couldn't figure out where this dust was coming from but it was disgusting like PigPen had walked by, so we, me and my Dad, looked around, and there's a Giant metal fan up above us with TONS of DUST on it, it wasn't moving, but the door was open today due to nice weather, and I am not sure if the breeze was creating it or what. Then we looked up, they have the nice lights but if you look at the long stem that goes to the ceiling they are full of dust, so I don't know if it was above us directly the fan or a combination, but it was DISGUSTING know this stuff was going into the food and in my nose, etc. Last the waitress never checked on us, and my soup was sitting there uneaten, never came by, nothing. I worked in restaurants, so I even pre-bussed the table, still didn't come by, then finally the waitress for another table asked if I wanted a to go container, I have 1 large soup, she brings 1 container, and I clearly need 2. I have to attempt to move the soup into the container, and quickly fill it. Our waitress still hasn't come by, she finally comes over, doesn't ask any questions, and I have to ask her for another container and she gives us the bill. I would not go there again. They can do way better. They are the pricey too. If I crave Pho, I gotta stick to my #1 spot. read more

Today's visit Dec 18 2015 Great service today. Pho doesn't taste as good as it did. We order gluten-free, disodium inosate-free and msg-free, and the new owner declined to let us look at the new ingredient mix. We suspect icky ingredients. The manager-acting person from our previous visit turns out to be the new owner. Sad. We miss owner Maggie and her owner brothers. We will not be going back unless someone lets us know the ingredients are ok. November 2015 visit: - 3 stars Not enough servers. Order mixed up, order mixed up again, plus served us peanut sauce after we asked for gluten free, plus gave us two kinds of gluten sauce in to-go containers, plus the manager-acting person seemed to question our sincerity when we asked for the correct food. I hope this bad experience is one-time. I'll probably update after our next visit, back up to 5 stars or lowering to less. At least the kitchen staff doesn't seem to be new. read more

My husband and I have been very frequent customers of Pho for the past few years and the past 6 months have been awful. My last experience was uncomfortable because the new owner was lounging at the table next to us watching tv did not greeting us or other customers as only one employee was taking orders, serving, and cashiering. Very sad to see the good customer service and tasty food disappear. read more

This place is up the street from where I work and yet I have never thought to try it until today. I decided to try something different for lunch but did not have a lot of time so phoned ahead to pick up. I was pleased when they said it would be ready in ten minutes and sure enough when I walked in the server asked if I was there to pick up my to go order and brought it straight out of the kitchen. The place is smallish with seating inside and a few tables outside for those who were willing to brave the breeze. At 11:30 it was pretty full and diners looked happy. As for me I tried the tomato stir fry and added beef. Beef with tomato is one of my favorite Chinese dishes but is not for everyone and so you do not see it on a lot of menus. I asked to substitute brown rice and was accommodated without hesitation. The to-go bag already had chop sticks, plastic silverware and condiments it is and the food was piping hot. I really appreciate good service even when it is for takeout. Flavor was good. In addition to the tomato there were various peppers, celery and onion. The sauce was a basic stir fry sauce, not too salty and slightly sweet. There were two scoops of the aforementioned brown rice which had that nice chewy texture brown rice should have. A good option if you are looking for a quick bite under ten bucks at lunch. They also have a nice selection of Pho dishes as well as appetizers, chow fun and some other noodle and stir fry dishes. read more

I dined alone for lunch during the week at 2pm. The restaurant is very small with twelve or so tables inside and a handful on the back patio. When I arrived the restaurant was half full, yet the waitresses were hustling. I noticed that myself and the neighboring tables waited at least five to six minutes to place our orders. Though I did not require any additional service during my meal, I will note that I was never checked on until the bill was delivered to my table. I ordered the tofu spring rolls as an appetizer and was surprised when they were delivered to my table about ten minutes later at the exact same time as my bowl of soup. I had hoped to receive them before, hence ordering them as an appetizer. Something was different about the peanut dipping sauce this time. I order this appetizer nearly every time I dine here and I have never remembered the peanut sauce to be so thin, lackluster, and bland. The sauce was so disappointing I had to mix it with a hefty helping of sriracha chili sauce to give it flavor. Sadly, the soup broth shared the same lifeless flavor as the peanut sauce. I ordered a #13, which has a chicken broth base with noodles, assorted vegetables, and tofu. I had to add a significant amount of sriracha sauce to this dish as well to make the broth savory enough to eat. When eating here I always find myself hoping for a more distinctive and zesty broth without having to season it so much with the sauces on the table. I am struggling between a three and three-and-a-half star rating. The location is convenient and I often find myself stopping in for a quick bite before my visit to Target, but I dislike the panhandlers who seem to be permanent fixtures in the parking lot wielding bottles of windex asking to clean your windshield. I have been here at least a dozen times over the past few years, and while the food is always quick and filling, I still find myself searching elsewhere for an impressive, authentic pho restaurant. read more

Pho - small #13: chicken broth with noodles, assorted vegetables, and tofu (sriracha chili sauce added for taste) - Vietnamese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

I enjoy playing word games with the names of the dishes on Vietnamese and Thai menus and your kids will to if you bring them! There are some fun tongue twisters in there and if you keep repeating them like a broken record, your lunch/dinner companions will love you for it! When someone says "let's get some pho", I typically think of someone back in the kitchen opening a package of ramen noodles and adding some veggies and meat to the mix calling it pho. That's really not the case, but I just can't move that image out of my head. Anyway, what you do actually get is a big bowl of noodles in stock with a lot of veggies and meat in the mix (the noodles are better than ramen). It is a great way to fill up on a budget. This place also has many other non-pho dishes as well with rice, and noodles on a plate in a large variety of presentations that you can add soy sauce and sriracha to as you enjoy putting it all away. As an added bonus, perhaps you'll be seated next to a couple of sorority girls with poor manners and no tact to complete the experience and make you feel like you're right in downtown Saigon. read more

This is actually my favorite place to order one of my favorite things to eat, Pho. I always order the number 1) Pho Dac Biet: Rare Beef Steak, Beef Flank Meat, Beef Brisket, Beef Tendon, Beef Tripe and Beef Meatballs with Rice Noodles served in our Beef Broth $6.95 Small / $7.95 Large. I order the large because I like getting it to go. Sometimes I ask for it without the tripe, it depends on my mood. I always put in all the little extra goodies such as fresh lime juice, bean sprouts, jalapenos, basil and a little sriracha... a pair of chop sticks and a spoon...It's making me hungry just thinking about it! read more

Pho The Good: The first experience of Pho! I ever had. I been coming to this location for about the past 1.5 years. The first few times I came to this location the food was Great! Service was Outstanding! An the owner was very welcoming, an it was a nice place for lunch and Dinner. I Love! the Number #9 Rare Beef & Beef Brisket! It was at a (5 out of 5 Stars) but.... The Bad: Now after my past few experience there as of late. I feel the quality of the food is slowly going down, when ordering my food the last time, I got the same plate #9 and for a dish thats suppose to have full flavor, I seriously for a piece of Rare beef, an two slices of brisket, as well as a lack of noodles. As well as the atmosphere is something else, ive felt rushed a few times. After receiving my food, the same waiter would already be coming by with the check then a few min later your asked for a to go container. Review Update 03/03/16 Today went there for lunch to just see if things have changed since my last visit, and wanted to give the restaurant one more chance before i decide on going elsewhere. Well the staff has been a little better on being more attentive and other then that the food is just gone down hill, I ordered the usual and still the same thing as my last review. Rare Beef and Brisket, One piece of each and just a lack of noodles. Sorry but i may just have to go somewhere else in the future. There are many good things there but the food isnt one of them. If you are charging your customers that kind of money you should really give them what they pay for, so in the mean time i am looking else where. Changed the 4 stars to 1 star. read more

First off I realize it's spelled "PHO" but it is pronounced "FU" as in without the "CK" ending. This place was not so great overall. It smelled a little off, especially in the back. I got the curry chicken and the wife got Fried wonton & seafood soup. The curry chicken was totally bland and also basically lacking one thing, chicken. I was really let down by it overall. The soup, which I did try, was okay but still not as good as our usual place, PHO 21. We also got pork egg rolls for an appetizer which again, were okay but nothing great. It was also about $6 bucks more for the same amount of food as compared to our usual spot as well. They did have a wide variety of things to choose from on the menu but with what we had tonight being so poor I doubt we will be back to try much else. The other thing I didn't really care for was our waitress. She left me feeling like we were a nuisance to her overall because we had the audacity to come into the establishment and order food. With so many Vietnamese places in Reno you can surely find one better than this place. I highly recommend PHO 21 just off McCarran next to the Flowing Tide Pub, much better. read more

I grew up in Vietnam and let me just say I will never come back. I like the decor and all but the food was not up to my standard. I'm Vietnamese and I don't want to go to a Vietnamese restaurant to eat Americanize food. If I want that I would just make it myself because I cut corners. I had the spicy soup and it tasted like Pho. There is no excuse for that but poor cooking and laziness of the chef. Spicy soup is my favorite dish growing up and it was so bad that I didn't touch it. read more

I absolutely love this place! The service is quick but not hurried, and the pho is spot on! Great broth, nice fresh sprouts and herbs, delicious proteins and great spring rolls. I even ordered food to go and the packaging was perfect. Cold sides wrapped separately, warm noodles and brisket in another container then soup in it's own vessel. All accompanying sauces were included. I can't wait to try a few different menu items they've all been fantastic so far! Five stars for a job well done! read more

I love this place! It is a small hole in the wall that packs a lot of punch. The food is always fresh. So many other places in town use canned veggies (ewwww)... The service is always exceptional. As fast paced as it is, they always make you feel like an old friend stopping in. Hands down the best pho in the area! read more

There is nothing better than some good pho and sometimes it can be hard to find, but look no further friends because Pho has the pho to eat! I like to get the vegetarian pho because I like all the delicious veggies and flavorful broth that comes with it. A lot of times at other pho restaurants the broth can be so bland and you need to add so many different sauces to make it taste good, but not here. I also really love getting the tofu spring rolls, the regular ones are just as good. The peanut sauce that comes with them is so tasty! I have also gotten a couple noodle dishes here and they are pretty good too. The service here is always so friendly. You walk in and are greeted with a big smile. I really love that I can come here and know that I'm going to get great food and really awesome service. This is always the pho restaurant I go to and just writing this review is making me want to drive there now. read more

With there was an option for no star For all my Reno people please dont eat here. Long story short nasty curly hair in my food. Only could wish it was beard hair. Called the restaurant and immediately gave me the owner's phone number. Pretty sure this happened before. All the owner wanted to do was give me my money back. It's not about the money but the hygenie of the restaurant. Pretty sure my wife threw up. I'll will write one review a day till the store puts a hair free sign in the window Good luck to all that eats here read more

Pros: Restaurant is clean, in a good neighborhood, servers are friendly, seasonal outdoor dining Cons: Busy, small, cramped quarters. Loved: The Pho with thinly sliced chicken. Much better than some of the other Pho restaurants where you get huge chunks of dark meat. The broth was flavorful and it made for delicious leftovers. Eh: Vegetarian Spring Rolls. No flavor, the peanut sauce was pretty bland, and it seemed they were mostly made with rice noodle and not veggies/tofu. Notable: There is an entire vegetarian menu section! Food was good, service was quick and friendly, and the addition of the vegetarian menu was a huge thumbs-up in my book. read more

Great little place. We always order the fresh tofu spring roll and the veggie pho with vegetarian broth and rice noodles and both are delicious read more

Canned mushrooms!! Bad! I can open a frozen bag of veggies and a can of mushrooms at home! And why do they bother frying the tofu? By the time you see it, they're soggy! Two stars because it was edible. read more

How disappointing, this place used to be my favorite pho restaurant and now something has changed! The veggies used to be fresh and delicious and now they taste frozen. The portions half cut back to half the size and the springrolls are 80% iceberg lettuce and 20% rice noodle and tofu. Where is the flavor!? So sad but I'm not going back here... read more

This review is dedicated mostly to one of their dishes: #25 Grilled pork over vermicelli noodles (Bun Thit Heo Nuong), which is one of the tastiest I've had around. Unfortunately I feel that the pho relies too much on MSG (I have no problem with it, but that taste is unmistakable and too much of it ruins the broth and makes it taste like many other Viet soups I've had before) Service is quick and friendly. Location is pretty convenient if you're shopping around (Meadowood Mall, Target, Home Depot, etc.) **Check out their website. The design looks like it hasn't been updated since 1995 :) read more

Pho - #25! - Vietnamese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

Great little restaurant. Located across from Target. Has a nice little patio and tables inside. Very friendly servers. I have eaten here number of times. Some recommendations are; start off with the pork eggrolls very tasty and inexpensive. They come with a very light, sweet dipping sauce. If you want something smaller try one of the pork Bahn Mi sandwiches. Not too large but filling and cheap. As you can tell by my review already I lean towards the pig. Their noodle bowls are great and hearty. I've also had the pork BBQ chow fun and combination chow mein. Both were huge portions that were very flavorful and delicious. You can't go wrong with this place with the friendly service, nice atmosphere and very affordable prices. read more

This is a pretty good place for pho. Being from San Jose, I am used to a bit of a different and possibly better selection (lots of milk teas at the various pho places, for example) than served in most of Reno. The pho is pretty good--a lot more meat than they serve in a traditional pho restaurant (a little tip: traditional Viet pho does not have a lot of meat in it, they add more meat in for Americanized restaurants because Americans want meat!). They also serve other dishes, including a yellow curry dish which is currently my favorite to order (very, very good curry). The only problems I have with it is the fact they use pot stickers/gyoza for wontons. This is not a big deal, but it's a bit of an annoyance if you know what a wonton is and you get pot stickers instead. They also don't use traditional French baguette for their banh mi, but I believe this is partially due to the unavailability of that bread in Reno. It's also worth mentioning that their selections of banh mi is quite small, both in amount of sandwich you get AND the types, if you're used to something like Lee's Sandwiches. $3.50 for their sandwich is much more expensive than the BIG sandwiches you can get from California Vietnamese places. The service is fairly good too. Another hint: South Meadows Smith's gives Pho coupons on the back of receipts. Buy one dinner, get one free of equal or lesser amount with a purchase of 2 drinks. read more

I thought this place was great. The best vegetarian pho I've had yet. The tofu was really good and the broth had great flavor. The Vietnamese coffee was also pretty tasty and there was a lot. It is fairly priced especially considering the amount of food you get for it. Will definitely be coming back! read more

After moving from San Jose, I had to find a place that served pho! I tried several other Vietnamese eateries that were just "ok." Walking into Pho felt like I was walking into a Vietnamese place in San Jose, not overly decorated and lots of choice of tables if you come in early enough. The menu had a fairly good selection of pho and their pictures were quite accurate. I was pleasantly pleased when my bowl of pho arrived at my table. It was very close to the pho that I had grown accustomed to in San Jose. The only real difference was here they served a lot more meat! The one down side to the restaurant is their pork sandwich is not served on the bread that I was accustomed to. read more

Great food, great service! The best pho in Reno. I recommend eating here if you love pho!

I really like this place. I've been here with my husband probably 10 times or more in the last few years. We haven't been in a while, though, and made a recent visit. My husband ordered the wrong thing and they said no problem and made a new dish very quickly. We didn't get charged for my hubby's silly mistake which was nice as well. The spring rolls we had as apps were good and my #27 was fantastic as usual. I only deduct a star because I don't like the TVs (I just don't see the need for them in this type of restaurant) nor the open storage in the back of the restaurant near the bathrooms. If this restaurant would simply move that stuff, it would look a lot nicer...especially when you have to sit in the back area. That said, the food is always good every time we visit and we definitely enjoy the place. read more

Pho - #27 pork egg roll vermicelli noodle dish. Added sriracha and hoisin sauce. My fave (asked for green onions on the side). - Vietnamese Near Me - Reno, Nevada

So maybe I missed the point and did not order pho, but, regretfully, beef teriyaki. Had some delicious Vietnamese food recently in San Jose and thought I'd give it a shot here. Should have yelped it first for recommendations. In any event, a sub par teriyaki. Fatty beef, weakly seasoned and quite forgettable. Ordered it to go. The best part about lunch was feeding my dogs beef with chop sticks. PS Cashier, please don't assume that you can keep the change; hand it to me and let me decide about the tip. read more

We've come here multiples times and the food is always amazing. Great service and fast. Can't go wrong here!!

Their iced coffee is weak, and their bahn mi, mediocre. The people who work there are nice.

Had a good lunch here yesterday. I love that they have the outside seating available. We had both pho and another Asian dish with thicker noodles. Make sure that if it says spicy, that you like spicy. My friend ordered the spicy asian dish and almost couldn't eat it. Also note there is almost no differnce between the small and large of an item, so save the $$ read more

Their serving was really huge! Me and my husband had the #1 and my daughter had the #11, all in large. The broth was just ok but they've put so much meat and enough noodles to satisfy our cravings. The appetizer that we ordered was I think the #A and it was good! The fried rice with chicken had a big portion too, maybe enough for 4 people. Servers were nice although I've said so many "thank you's" everytime they bring something or check on us and there's no acknowledgement... Would be nice to hear something or even just a nod or a smile. Price is very affordable! Location is good! And it's clean! (Their hoisin and sriracha was all new, bottles was not yucky/dirty looking like other asian restaurants!)- so that's a plus!!! read more

Pho-nominal!! Service was outstanding, and the Pho was more that delicious! A Reno area must try if you are in the mood for some Pho or good Vietnamese food. Small but clean, and great staff! read more

Yuk and OMG, what's that smell? I knew they served shrimp because I was constantly washed with wave after wave of horrible putridness. I wondered if the shrimp was just laying out in the open. I've had pho many times before and there's no reason for the place to smell so bad. Maybe the kitchen's exhaust fans weren't working, but it was just another factor in a disappointing meal. The vegetarian broth was bland, the service inattentive, and, ironically, they forgot the shrimp in the shrimp pho. read more

Rachel was an awesome server! Extremely friendly and very attentive. It was busy, obviously for a Friday night. But I could tell she cared and was trying her best to give exceptional service. We will be back! Chow mein was good too. read more

My BF and I came here one late night when our other go-to pho place in the neighborhood had already closed. They were open later than 8pm, which we appreciated, especially being outside of the downtown area. Their menu is the standard vietnamese food but prices are much higher than most places. We ordered to-go and our pho and rice dish were done very quickly and packaged nicely. The food was good, although I have definitely had better pho broth elsewhere in town. read more
