I love seeing that at any moment that the owner has time to speak with her customers, she comes out and makes sure they're doing well and if there's anything that she can do for them. This is me and my husbands 2nd time going there and we love how caring they are no matter how long our order takes. I would definitely take the time to drive 15 minutes to go eat pho here no matter how much closer there's one closer to home. The food is amazing!! I could never want to go anywhere else. Funny to say, any time that I go anywhere else now, I feel terrible for skipping on Pho J. The feel of the restaurant when we walk in is so heart warming.

At exactly 6:40 PM, received the delivery order at my residence. Food was still warm and portions were more than adequate. Checking out on the DoorDash App was simple and very easy to place the order from this restaurant. I have ordered a few times before as well and had no problems whatsoever. All of the entrees were delicious!

Solid 3.5/5. Food…read more(2.5-4/5). We had 4 grilled pork vermicelli with egg rolls, 1 pho tai with beef meatballs, and 1 spring rolls. Vermicelli was a 3.5 as it was fresh and a good serving (4) but the grilled pork was on the cooler side and didn't taste as crisp and fresh off the grill as you'd expect (3). Best part of the pho was the broth as it wasn't too salty like it can be sometimes elsewhere (4). Veggies were super fresh. Sliced beef was previously sliced and the whole chunk was placed in so you had to tease apart the slices from each other which was a little different than my experiences elsewhere. SKIP THE SPRING ROLLS. Picture had three shrimps/roll. Ours had 1/roll on one side with a slice of pork (I think) on the other. Seemed pretty skimpy if you ask me (2.5 at best). Service was good (4). Location was in a small strip mall with a Mexican and Indian place next door. The bars over nearly the entire front storefront were definitely interesting. For an out-of-towner, this part of Kent seems like a Santa Ana/Westminister/Garden Grove of OC, CA kind of an area with different ethnic offerings up and down the street.

I had a great experience at PHOnominal! The server was very quick, which we didn't mind, although…read moreit didn't leave us much time to decide what we wanted. The food was delicious and came out fast--so fast that our entrées actually arrived before our appetizer. The prices were fair for the generous portions, and the atmosphere was lively with everyone enjoying themselves and having a good time. Overall, I'd definitely recommend PHOnominal and would happily come back!

I've confirmed with the staff that they don't use msg because the soup tastes so good! I also didn't feel tired or super thirsty a few hours later so that's also a really good sign they didn't put msg or a lot of salt. Combination pho (5/5) Unbelievable taste, lots of flavor, soup came out piping hot and lots of fresh ingredients and meat. The noodle itself is also cooked perfectly. Vermicelli with pork and egg rolls (5/5) The pork is very tender and tastes delicious, the sauce that comes with it is not overly salty and you don't need to pour so much since the noodles and ingredients taste very flavorful already. The service here matches the amazing flavors. They are very attentive and always make sure we are happy the entire meal. The place looks very clean and well decorated. I would definitely want to come back and try everything on the menu!

The bun bo hue here is sooo good. I discovered this place last year since it was near our hotel,…read moreand I came back again during my recent trip over the weekend. My order here will forever be the bun bo hue. It's the best one I've had, and I've had a lot. The broth has so much depth to it, and the flavor is SO GOOD. I love that their bun bo hue has a lot of sate in it, and doesn't taste just like a clear broth that some restaurants serve. It even comes with the standard pork hock and pork blood, I know a lot of restaurants may omit that. I can't recommend it enough, it's a must try!! It is a little on the spicy side though if you're sensitive to it, but it was perfect for me. The service here is quick, although the restaurant itself is a bit small. I never had to wait for long though. I'll definitely be back during my annual Seattle trip!

I asked if any of the milk teas had any milk substitutes or lactose free. She said they did not have any substitutes. So I elected to try their fresh teas instead. I asked for a recommendation. She mentioned a few options and I decided to try their passion fruit tea with passion fruit topping. When I got the drink. I took a sip of it and the sweetness from the sugar was so overpowering i wanted to spit it out. I wish they had the option for 50% sweetness. I also shook the cup prior to mix it and it was still, that sweet... Also, it had a strange medicine like after taste. Im not sure if its from the passion fruit tea, or the topping, but it was not appealing and ive had many passion fruit teas at other places that did not taste like this. I can only speak for the fresh, passion fruit tea, but it was pretty awful, overlt sweet with a strange aftertaste. They do not have any milk substitutes, so if you want a milk tea drink, and youre lactose intolerant, you're out of luck.

We came off a flight at Sea-Tac hoping to find something to satisfy everyone before the long drive home: The eye round and flank beef pho definitely hit the mark. Broth was more simple than some phos I've had before, but it had a very satisfying and fresh flavor and the beef quality was good. My husband ordered the mixed beef, and not having had tripe before wasn't a fan, but still enjoyed the other meats in the dish and overall flavor. Egg rolls were excellent and the fried rice was a favorite for my 10 year old. My 12 year old sampled and loved every dish equally. The owner was exceptional and waited on us like a one-man show he was warm and friendly us and our kids. The wait wasn't long, but he surprised our kids with chocolate after dinner for waiting patiently and smiled and joked with everyone in the restaurant and he moved around the restaurant. The restaurant itself isn't anything too exception in terms of looks or presentation, but the food and family feeling to it has definitely earned the respect of locals getting take out. We'll add it to the list of great places to stop.

It's a mother daughter shop so you will see only 2-3 people's helping. The only weird thing for me is you will have to order and pay first, definitely different than other restaurants. But they probably have their reasons for doing that. The daughter who I assume is the owner is really sweet. The place is always clean. I do recommend everyone to come and try.

The table, the booth, the hoisin bottle, the chili oil container. GROSS. Then the guy came out bad mouthing all other pho restaurants saying they're "too expensive" and that they were there first. First of all, that's wrong, they're pretty average priced for pho (and I'm pretty sure the portion was smaller). Like I said, I eat it a lot. I would much rather pay that extra money for somewhere clean, either way. Do NOT recommend.
