Convenient and comforting at times, but hit or miss on quality. Updated to 2/5 stars only because our daughter requested their phở during their post-surgery recovery this week and genuinely enjoyed it. We did takeout three times in the last six days, and my daughter said the leftover phở still tasted good after two days. That kind of comfort food earns some grace! That said, the overall experience has been inconsistent. They're stingy with limes, even when I specifically asked for extra. If you're a lime lover, be ready to ration. I did enjoy their egg rolls. They made with shredded taro as part of the filling, just like my bà ngoại used to make, and seasoned well. One of the few bright spots on the menu. The combo vermicelli was a letdown: over-grilled shrimp, and the grilled pork was thin and chewy. Just not satisfying. Today I came in for lunch and ordered the Bánh Xèo ($17.95), and it was a big disappointment. It was thick, soggy, and greasy, with zero crispness, nothing like the light, crunchy texture of Bánh Xèo. No mung beans which is signature Southern Vietnam style, and they added mushrooms, which felt like a Western twist. The filling included bean sprouts, shrimp, and BBQ pork (instead of traditional steamed pork). At least they were generous with lettuce and herbs, so I repurposed the filling into my own version of spring rolls since the Bánh Xèo itself was a flop. Check the photos, you'll see what I mean. I'm torn about this place. It's only a 15-minutes leisurely walk from my home, and I've given them multiple chances. Still the quality doesn't justify the convenience, I'd rather drive a little further for food that hits the mark. Happy to see their business doing well. It's their second location and they're in a prime spot right across from Kaiser Permanente Hospital and Medical Center. I just wish the food matched the potential of the location. P.Y.

It's been a couple of years since we visited this location. We had actually forgotten it was here! We stopped in for pho but found they also offer bahn mi sandwiches on the menu. We are always looking for good bahn mi. We ordered the chicken and the pork sandwiches. Both were absolute delicious! Crisp outter crust on the bread and soft inside is what makes a bahn mi top notch and they have it perfected here! The veggie toppings were all nicely pickled and a great compliment. We did order the pho as well. It was good but we were still so impressed by our sandwiches that we took most of our pho home with us. The staff is very friendly and the restaurant is clean and nice. The menu has tons of options so give them a try. There's sure to be something for everyone! read more

I've been craving pho for WEEKS. We had a long day, and it was straight down pour the whole day. What better what to warm up than with a bowl of pho! Popped for the pho dac biet, which is usually categorized as the pho special at most pho places. The bowl was huge! There was a ton of broth and noodles, but not so much meat fixings. I like a good 50/50 ratio, but I'd say 75% noodles and broth, 25% meat. They brought over a decent size amount of veggies and herbs for us to share between two bowls of pho. Now for the broth- it was just alright. It didn't give me the simmering for hours flavor that I was craving. Overall the taste was good, slightly sweet and savory while still maintaining that light broth. But the umami punch was lacking. Service was spot on. We walked in at about 7 pm on a Sunday and were seated quickly. After about 5-10 minutes we were brought over water and the menus. After we ordered it was about 10-12 minutes and both of our pho bowls were brought over piping hot! We prefer dipping our meats into small bowls, so when we asked for them the server kindly brought us some. The avocado smoothie with boba came out mid meal. I love all avocado smoothies. But this one definitely tasted more like milk than avocado. The boba pearls were cooked fine, they are slightly sweet so it altered the avocado smoothie taste a bit to make it more sweeter/caramel-y when I mixed it all thoroughly. The restaurant has a bunch of tables and its quite spacious so you don't have to worry about bumping into folks. Parking is relatively okay- it's located in a busier complex so you may have to park a little further but that's not a problem at all. read more

Ordered from here Friday night and the Pho came spoiled. The soup was extremely sour and not edible. After heating it up in a pot the food left a foul odor in the house. We took a couple bites and dumped it down the sink. Ordered 3 orders, dumped 2 and threw the other order in the garbage. read more

While I'm super happy that Clackamas is getting more Vietnamese options, I do wish the options were better than what I've been experiencing at Pho Sen 2. The food has been average overall but the value is not there since the portions have gotten smaller and the prices have increased. Located just off Sunnyside Rd, this place in a plaza that includes popular breweries and eateries such as McMenamins and Dave's Hot Chicken. Parking can get tight on busy days, but I've managed to squeeze in for lunch and for early dinners. As a space, PS2 feels small, but does a good job of fitting medium to large groups given the layout. It also helps since it doesn't appear to be too busy at any given time. I've had a number of things here, but not much of it has stood out. Their cha gio egg rolls ($8 for 4) were a bit larger, super crunchy, and made for an easy starter. Lotus salad ($10.50) with pork and and shrimp were skimpy on the actual proteins, but the pickling of the veggies was strong. Goi cuon summer (2 for $7) rolls were solid, but not that well wrapped. It eventually started falling apart while dipping in the sauce. A nice surprise was the nuoc mam (fish sauce) wings ($11). They had the right amount of crisp, funk, and little kick of sweetness and spice. The spicy beef noodle soup (bun bo hue) was close to $18 and was very unmemorable with tough meats and a less than memorable broth. Their special signature pho ($17) was much of the same. Meats were skimpy and the broth was once again a little bland. Not my favorite by a long stretch. The service was lukewarm but very casual. As the the Asian communities within Happy Valley and Clackamas continue to grow, I'm really hoping they'll step it up so that the can add to the dining scene of the neighborhood. read more

Unphogettable best pho on sunny side worth the the trip fast friendly. Clean and upbeat atmosphere.

I came here on a whim one day and thought that it was amazing. The inside is spacious, with tons of seating and the large windows make the place brighter during the day. I ordered an order of chicken wings and bowl of specialty pho, and they came out surprisingly very fast (in contrast to what other reviews have stated). The chicken wings were so crispy on the outside but the perfect tenderness on the inside, and the sauce was packed of flavor and fish sauce--just the way I like it. The pho was a good portion and there was lots of meat. The broth was rich and flavorful. I overall had a great time here, and would definitely come back again. read more

Good price and meat portions. Not the best pho broth but certainly not the worst. Did a good job on to go packing.

Introducing our friend to Pho at this restaurant. This will be her first time eating it. I ordered the Pho Special, large. My friend ordered the special chicken and pork broth with BBQ pork, shrimp, squid and quail egg in rice noodles as her intro to pho noodles. My other friend ordered Grilled pork chop, grilled shrimp and omelet egg on top of jasmine rice. Service was quick. The food was delicious . Everyone finished all the food that they had ordered. This is more of a eat and go kinda place. No frills. Very low key environment. read more

Pho below average. Broth was very weak, hot water with a little broth flavor. Noodles were a sticky mass of a ball of noodles that had to be broken apart to be able to eat. Service was poor and had to ask for napkins. Ordered brisket and every single piece of meat was half fat. read more

This place was pretty forgettable. So much so, that the other day, I asked my wife if she wanted to try this place and she reminded me we had been here once already. Maybe it was because it was close to closing time? Service was slow despite us being the only customers in the restaurant. I think I ordered their #3 pho, which consists of mostly tendon and sliced meats. I don't care for asian style meat and fish balls, so I was really looking forward to what I ordered. Unfortunately, I got a bowl almost entirely full of tripe and nothing much else. The broth was salty, but otherwise flavorless. My wife ordered something with seafood (that's her usual). I remember there was hardly any seafood in it. The broth in her soup was also pretty bland. It's a shame that our first impressions were not good. This restaurant is located just a mile from my parents' house. Had our experience been more positive, it could easily have been a regular spot for us to eat at. read more

Need a quick pick me up on to go? Pho Sen is the perfect place. I got the Bun and salt and pepper squid to-go and the family loved it. Bun -Vermicelli noodles with grilled pork, shrimp and egg rolls. Excellent addition on a warm day! The egg rolls are crisp and tastes phenomenal. The grilled pork and shrimp are succulent. Salt and Pepper Squid -Salt and pepper deep fried squid, onions and jalapeño peppers -This dish is an absolute must-have if I ever see it on the menu. I love the salt and paper flavor with deep fried seafood. Pho Sen did a perfect job! The dish was well flavored and most importantly, the deep fried squid was still crunchy 10 mins later! Overall, I enjoyed my visit to Pho Sen. They were quick with my to-go order which is much appreciated when I have HANGRY family members at home. The meal was well seasoned as well as still being fresh and delicious when I brought it home for the family! I'd absolutely recommend folks to visit! read more

I must say I usually only eat Pho at Pho Hung on Powell downtown area because it's the best. I was out here at the dentist and was starving and thought I'd try this place. I didn't have high hopes just cause it's a strip mall style area. I am so glad I stopped here. I ordered the P3 Pho with well done flank and brisket. The size small was HUGE! I asked for extra basal and they brought it without question. It was truly so yummy I will most definitely be back. read more

I decided to eat here on my lunch on a very windy cold day. The place was busy with only two young men taking orders and delivery food. Even though you could tell that they could use more help they were very quick. I was seated right away. It took a while before they came and took my order but food came out very fast. I ordered the shrimp salad rolls (came with peanut sauce -yummy!) and the pho ga (chicken with noodle soup). Both were fantastic and filling. I got the large pho which was a lot and I was able to take it to go. I will say the parking lot was full and parking was hard to find over the lunch hour. Will definitely be back! read more

I'm going to call this "decent but spendy". Stopped in here on a rainy Monday to grab a bowl of Pho before an appointment. Had never been before, was glad to find a Pho place local to my appointment. Walked in, was greeted with a familiar aroma, probably chicken broth and a bit of allspice maybe? Was greeted and seated immediately. Ordered a "small chicken" even before the menu was offered and got a head nod from the waitperson. The wait wasn't unreasonable - side plate of bean sprouts and basil came along with tableware w/in a few minutes. And a few minutes later, a bowl was placed in front of me. At this point, the review devolves into "nothing special". The bowl was a few pieces of shredded chicken with noodles and a bit of sliced green onion. Pretty much what you'd expect to see. Taste was also well within expectations. But compared to offerings from some place like Pho Gia over on Sandy, this was just...average. More to the point, the shock was that their "small chicken" cost me $13.95 plus tip. Spendy for what it was. I suppose I'll go back some time because they're the Pho place for that area but it's just not very exciting. read more

Update on my previous review, took a star away. Prices has gone up but they giving less food. Cheating out on da meats and vegs in pho and that is not acceptable! Found me a new pho place near by. -T- that's a middle finger to the place by the way lol . read more

Needed a quick bite while in the area so I placed a phone order for spring rolls and the crispy noodle dish. The spring rolls were amazing but I did not like the crispy noodle dish - I thought the concept of the crispy noodles were cool but it wasn't enjoyable to eat and it tasted too bland for me. The service is great and I felt like they genuinely cared to have my business. I will be back for the spring rolls and maybe trying something else from the menu. read more

We got a lot of to go orders from here the last 18 months, so we finally decided to see what the food was like without a 20 minute drive .

Takes a minute to get your order but they are always busy so that's too be expected. The crispy noodles are amazing read more

Pho Sen 2 - Beef Vermicelli - Vietnamese Near Me - Clackamas, Oregon

I've been back a couple times after my last review, usually during my lunch break with my coworkers (there really isn't much to eat around my area). We arrive around noon and order almost immediately as we all get the same items every time. I have only ordered the hu tieu mi dac biet and for the last two times have been asked what type of noodles I wanted (egg or rice) whereas the first time I was not. The first time I had the dish, I was pleasantly surprised by the addition of the squid but in today's order, they used a different part of the squid in the dish and it was not a good move as it did not taste the same. My coworker loves their spring rolls and they are FAT. My other coworker orders pho and finishes it every time. They still take a long time with orders, we usually get our food around 12:30 so don't expect to do anything else on your one hour lunch break if you come here. read more

I was in town visiting family in Oregon. There're many pho places around, but our go to in Clackamas was closed. We Yelped a few spots in the Clackamas area on Sunnyside, and Pho Sen 2 popped up. Overall rating and the photos of the food looked good so we decided to check it out. We walked in and were greeted and seated right away. We all ordered a bowl of pho as there were 10 of us in our party. The restaurant itself was clean and the people who waited on us were friendly and quick. I know other reviews said that they take a long time, but that wasn't the case for us. The spring rolls with shrimp and the Pho with rare steak and brisket were just as good as our normal spot. Don't hesitate to come in for a bowl of pho. The broth is just fine and the quality of the meat and noodles are as well. read more
