As a Vietnamese person, the broth was not it, no flavors and felt like they cheap out using broth powder seasonings. The noddles and meat were good, but the broth was bland. And I eat a lot of pho places in my life, I'm coming from Orange County, we have a lot of pho spots in Little Saigon, I know this place isn't Richmond but reading other reviews thought I would give this place a chance. This isn't authentic pho at all, there wasn't even the spices smell when you walk it. Service was decent, it wasn't that busy to dine in just a bunch of orders to go. Will I come back? No, sorry. I told my man that there are better places to eat Pho but he stated that his family has been a bunch of times and I was shock. So I told him my next family meals, I'm going to make them REAL Vietnamese pho. Overall, if you're looking for authentic pho this place ain't it, unless you have don't like the smell of pho, you can go here. read more

Pho Royal II - Vietnamese Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

I visited this place before my trip to the outlet mall. I would say the food here is just okay. I had to wait almost 20minutes for a small bowl of pho. I also noticed that the owner seemed quite rude. read more

We stopped by for lunch before the outlets - the restaurant is tucked away in a pretty empty strip mall. We ordered a couple dishes including pho. The first time the pho came out, it wasn't hot and the noodles were so stuck together in a clump i couldn't break it up without having tiny pieces of noodles. It clearly had been sitting in the back. The staff graciously remade the pho, but not sure why that happened in the first place. Restaurant was not busy. Overall the food was ok and quantity decent as well. Wouldn't seek this out but wouldn't avoid either. read more

I have been coming to Pho Royal for years and they always serve delicious, authentic Vietnamese pho with a rich and flavorful broth. Portions are generous, and their summer and spring rolls are delicious!! I always leave satisified! Definitely worth a visit!! read more

Came here for lunch on a weekday, they were moderately busy at lunch time, but there was no waiting. Service is pretty quick and relatively friendly. The menu has a large list of various Vietnamese dishes, including stir fries and pho soups. I tried their Cơm Đĩa with lemon grass beef. The dish came with a small bowl of pho broth, as well as the dish of many items, including the beef. The beef was rather dry and didn't haven't much of a lemon grass flavor. I did start with crispy fried spring rolls and those were large and pretty tasty. The flavor of the broth was also quite nice. read more

I've been going to Pho Royal for years, and I'm never disappointed! My wife & I bring the kids & they love it too. The best thing about this pho is the broth! Best I've ever tasted! When my wife & I are out of town & hung over we always run to the closest pho restaurant & when we're done we're always remarking how it hit the spot but it's "not our pho". PHO ROYAL is our pho!! You will love this place! Crispy spring rolls are my other go-to, my wife loves the garden rolls. I've heard the banh mi are also great but I can't bring myself not to get pho when we go! read more

The food is absolutely delicious. I have ordered from this place for over the past 10 years because they are consistent with their quality and taste. Authentic food! read more

There are many Vietnamese restaurants around Ashburn and Leesburg, but most of them are either over priced and/or not that good. A bowl of soup shouldn't cost $15+. I think Pho Royal is a good value. The large pho bowls actually fill you up, and they cost around $10-12. My kids eat pho, and you can get a large plain one for around $7. The rice dishes are good, have generous portions, and are reasonable priced. The only thing I have been disappointed with have been the banh mi sandwiches. I thought they were a little skimpy on the meat for the $8 price tag. Overall, not the best Vietnamese food I've ever had, but I find myself coming back more often than not because it's better than most of the options around here. read more

I ordered pho with meatballs #2 for delivery when my order arrived no meatballs just broth:( Manager called after seeing this review and offered a full refund! Quality customer service. read more

Awesome Pho, good prices, convenient location! The staff was attentive and the restaurant was clean.

This place isn't the fanciest or tastiest Pho you'll ever have but it hits the spot when you have a craving. Pros: Good portions - although it could use a bit more meat, fresh ingredients, decent pricing, Cons: outdated and ugly interior decor of restaurant, their use of about 10 different types of plastic for takeout, read more

If you are looking for a good spot for Pho here is the place to go. Have been going here for a few years now and has always been great food along with great staff. read more

One of the few pho options in Leesburg. It does the job especially on a cold day. Dad likes this place and we get consistent service and food here. All the pho combos are fine especially combos 13-17 due to the types of proteins you can have such as tripe and tendon. While they have other dishes such as the rice vermicelli entrees, you're here for the pho since it's the name of the business! Although their appetizer list is small compared to other places, they have solid spring rolls and egg rolls with the dipping broth; usually crunchy but kind of moist on the inside, it's a great tune up before getting your pho on. While it's not the greatest it gets the job done; I'll take that when I need to get warmed up. read more

Food is great, very convenient, clean restaurant, great service. I come here at least once a week!

The food is very bad Service is too slow. This restaurant has only 1 waiter and cashier. The rest only have one man helping to bring food or drinks to customers. Both of them don't understand their job very well, maybe their English is not good. Waited too long for Pho Tai Chin (Noodles with beef, vegetables, etc.), Rice with pork, eggs, vegetables, etc.). The big problem is that Pork is trash and bad, it needs to be thrown in the trash) if someone eats it, they should call 911 to pick up them go to emergency hospital as soon as possible read more

This small Vietnamese restaurant is a true gem. John really know how to give his customers the royal treatment. The food is very good and they give you plenty. The prices are good for the amount of food they give you. This was the first time that I when there but it will not be the last. I am looking forward to the next time I go to Leesburg so I can stop in for my royal treatment. I is a must that you try the food here if your in the area. Support our small businesses! read more

Pho Royal II - Get the royal treatment with the Royal Rice Dish. C-7 on the menu - Vietnamese Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

I do not recommend this place at all. Pho quality was less than mediocre, and topping meats were awful! We asked for slightly-fatty brisket (listed on the menu), but they gave us tendons first. I went back to the restaurant, then they gave us almost all fat next!!! When I drove back again, the cashier person rolled eyes on me and said geeze... as if I did something wrong. We were the ones inconvenienced, but she gave me scornful attitude and then swapped with all dried-up hard stringy brisket pieces. Not even a sense of apology. We used to have Pho in Fairfax or Chantilly. This was no comparison. read more

Came in here after shopping for hours at the Leesburg Outlet, so you know your girl was starving! The pho took a little longer than what I'm used to, but it wasn't unbearably long. I don't know if it's because I was starving, but it was so good. I felt like I was coming back to life again while slurping the noodles and soup. Our whole family enjoyed and killed our large bowls. The broth was on the lighter side so it was easier for me to finish my whole bowl. Meat was plentiful and they provide sauces in disposable containers in order to be mindful of the COVID situation. This place is one of the best pho places I've ate at in this area. read more

So the first time I came back under the new management (end of June), I was EXTREMELY disappointed with the quality of the pho. The noodles tasted really weird, unlike anything I've had before here. I later found out that the management had changed since the last time I came. I went to look for another pho place in Leesburg, but my search has been unsuccessful. I came back with my family tonight (I was personally wary), and I was surprised with the same, good quality pho (with ample meat) I had once been accustomed to. They've also started serving bubble tea! I had the Thai iced bubble tea, but it unfortunately tasted just like sweetened milk--like the residual sugary milk after you've finished all your cereal. The bubbles had been cooked well though. read more

I ordered takeout so I didn't experience this poor customer service that everyone seems to be commenting about, but I do believe it to be true. When I walked into the restaurant to pick up my food, it was apparent that some tables hadn't been cleaned yet and the waitstaff seemed a bit disorganized. The food seemed fairly priced since we fed 5 for around $80. I ordered B1, the vermicelli with lemongrass beef and it was okay. I enjoy Xuan Saigon to Pho Royal. read more

REVISED 5/29 Dinner: Now 1 Star- Knocked the 4 Star rating & took off my rose colored glasses when I got dinner to go last night. Ordered what I had eaten a week ago, so I knew what I should get. The chicken dish wasn't chicken at all. My son & I couldn't figure out if it was pork or beef because of the off taste. I called the restaurant & they prepared replacement meals & the guy checked & confirmed it wasn't chicken. Once home, I picked out 3 hairs from my meal. My son refused to eat his after seeing the hairs in mine. So we vowed never to go back! Yuck! FORMER REVIEW: Pleasantly surprised with this place. Food came out quickly and is very good. Brightly lit, clean & even upbeat music in the final by room. Reasonable prices as well. Very positive experience. Will definitely be read more

Pho Royal II - Server area - Vietnamese Near Me - Leesburg, Virginia

They say they have a lot of vegetarian options but they do not, I wanted to get a vegetable pho but they don't even offer that, you can only get bone broth with noodles, that's all, it doesn't bring any vegetables or tofu to make it more worth the money you are paying. They also don't offer vegetable only spring rolls, all have pork. The service is adequate at most. The ambiance is okay, nothing special. read more

Good customer service and great food. All the customers I talked to had something good to say about this restaurant. Lots of parking and very safe. read more

I come to this place often. Probably 20 plus times for takeout and dine in. Good food but the service is pitiful. I walked in at 8:20pm and the women working there looked at her watch and just stared at me. I am a quick eater in and out. Would have taken me 1 minute to order and 5 min to eat. Crazy. I feel bad for the business owner because that's just horrible customer service. read more

So many things were wrong with this restaurant so I'll start with a list. 1. We got there and were told to seat ourselves and apparently that also means get your own menus too. 2. Another table sat down after us and were served with their drinks, water and food before us. 3. We ordered an order of egg rolls, 2 banh mi combos, and 2 large bowls of pho. The order comes out and one sandwich was the wrong protein, no egg rolls and one small pho and one large pho. 4. Now to the food, the banh mi sandwiches barely had any meat inside. The pho broth was bland. 5. I go to pay and tell the waitress that she shouldn't charge me for 2 large pho bowls when we clearly didn't get 2 large bowls. Only to find out she tried to charge me for an extra banh mi that we didn't order. She says oh my goodness as if it: my fault she overcharged me. I should have turned around when I walked in and the wait staff was not Vietnamese. Not even sure if the cook was even Vietnamese. Waste of money and time. Never again! read more

The pork summer rolls were pretty tasty, and the House Special Beef Pho was really really good. Clean, friendly, and fast. Would recommend, and will be back again. read more

My wife and I live in Loudoun and we finally decided to try Pho Royal today for lunch. We both love Pho but have never had it together because it's more of a lunch thing for us because it's usually quick, I work in Herndon and she works in Falls Church. We were both off from work today and decided to try Pho Royal. What a disappointing and offending experience it was, but not with the food because we didn't eat. We have no idea if their Pho is good or not. When we walked in, there were several tables occupied with customers but the rest of the tables had not been cleared and cleaned. We waited about five minutes for a table and finally seated. We then waited another ten minutes for our order to be taken. Even with this, we were not annoyed, we understand that businesses are struggling with staffing during the pandemic. What's upsetting is that two male Asian gentlemen came in after us and were seated and served before us. A few minutes later an Asian woman and a Caucasian male couple came in, were seated and again served before us. My wife and I frustrated, continued to wait for another ten minutes or so and finally had enough and decided to leave. I'm not sure if this was an isolated incident but we have no plans of returning, we'll drive to Herndon for Pho 75. FYI: Neither my wife or I are Asian, not that it should matter... read more

I love pho. This place is the best pho in town. You can't go wrong with it. Workers are so nice and understanding. Couldn't ask anything more read more

We stumbled across this location on a whim and decided to give it a shot. The food was ok, definitely not the best I've had. I appreciated the sauces being in their own separate containers. The customer service was the worst, the lady there was extremely rude and off putting. She brought me back an ice cup, but there was an obvious black spot in the ice. Anybody with eyes could have seen it. Upon a closer look, I realized it was a spider. I waited to tell her discreetly because I didn't want to cause a scene. I understand that mistakes happen, but she was very rude and rolled her eyes at us. Then she said "so do you want another cup or what?" took our cups and left without another word. To top it off we racked up a bill of $50 for two people. No big deal, but kind of upsetting when you get served mediocre food and bad customer service. read more

This hidden Pho restaurant is the best Pho restaurant my family and I have ever eaten at. The food is top notch and the staff are friendly and pay attention to your needs. They are more than willing to modify dishes to suit your needs. During the Onslaught of the Covid crises we thought they had closed. We were devastated. We tried numerous Pho restaurants in the area, including places in Stirling, Ashburn Village, One Loudoun and others. We gave each place we tried several opportunities to impress us but none were as good as Pho Royal in Leesburg. When we discovered the restaurant open for business we were ecstatic! Literally we all did a happy dance. We are really thrilled not to settle and are able to get the best! read more

Been hitting this place for 10 years now, never disappoints!!! John is always pleasant and greets with a hello, the pho is always on point!!

If you are anywhere from the west of Virginia save yourself the trouble and don't come here. The pho is tasteless , packaged noodles has more flavor. read more

Been going here for years and over the last month, the service and cleanliness dropped off the charts. The woman working the dining room leaves tables covered with dishes and food until almost every table is dirty before she slowly starts to clean off one or 2. If she gets your order wrong, she stares at you, expecting you to just accept what she brought instead. This place needs a visit from the health department and new management. Stay away. read more

Like this place, but they also need to update their Yelp info.... They close at 9 on Saturday...NOT 10.!

45 minutes to get our food in an almost empty restaurant. It's a real shame as this place was originally quite good.

I like their pho. 8 times out of 10 usually good experience. Few times their brisket smelled pretty bad which I couldn't eat. They are pretty clean inside and love their bubble tea. read more
