Lemongrass chicken bowl
Ms. Wong ..

Good service. The waiter was friendly. Food portion was good. Price and taste was good. Clean looking place. Parking lot available. Will come back for sure. Loved the lemongrass chicken bowl the most.

The pan fried noodles with beef were good...a little on the sweet side, oddly. The bao bun pork belly was not good. The pork was hard as a rock. The environment is meh... acoustics make it loud and echo-y. I've heard the pho is good and should've maybe tried it.

I love Vietnamese food. Especially, pho in a cold weather. It feels like a natural remedy for cold, so I have high expectations for the Pho. First, don't let the name fool you. This is not just a Vietnamese restaurant more like an Asian restaurant with sushi, noodles etc. Let's talk about Pho. It is basic nothing special and little bit on salty side. I am not sure if they have msg or not, but definitely it makes you thirsty. They have chicken , sea food and beef pho and other asian food options. It is located next to HEB in Kyle Marketplace. You seat yourself. Service is fast and friendly. It is an okay choice for Pho when you have no other options.

I've always been up the location located in South Park meadows but the Kyle location has the same menu and atmosphere! Service is great and food is delicious!

Crab rangoons

We ate here a few weeks ago and loved it. We came after work and were seated immediately without having a reservation. Our waitress was very friendly as well. As for the food, the kitchen got everything out incredibly fast once we ordered. Both the Louisiana roll & rainbow roll were delicious. The fried rice was fantastic, and the dynamite shrimp was solid. Only thing I probably wouldn't get again was the crab rangoons. Overall though, five stars! This is a good spot.

Pork Dumplings & Crab Rangoons

The food here is so good me and family have been coming here for 5 years and we had finally ordered in and sat down and the service was wonderful, I love the Chef Pho, Vietnamese Coffee, and Chicken Curry is amazing!! I would highly recommend to go in and try it out! It's clean and such a good environment. and the dumplings are delicious.

My bf & I were craving Vietnamese food and thought we would try this place. I was disappointed in how much it was lacking flavor and love. We ended up having to throw away.

S6 Crunchy Roll

I ordered the crunchy California roll and edamame - both were very good and tasted fresh. Food arrived very quickly. Server was friendly. I sat on the patio which is a nice option to have. A good quick choice for lunch when you're craving sushi/ Vietnamese food!

Spicy tuna roll

Update 4: Since last update, 5 years ago, this has consistently been a place we know we can get a good meal and wonderful service. Consistently. That's a big think given the past few years AND Kyle's food choices blowing up with tons of chain restaurants. Kudos to the family who runs it. We went in for dinner the other night and everyone was happy with their food, the staff was wonderful and we got bonus sushi. I'd ordered the spicy salmon roll and the spicy tuna roll came out. They quickly and happily made it right and left the tuna roll to the table. Still I say the best bang for your buck is the delicious grilled pork vermicelli bowl. My wife liked the pho. The sushi is tasty. It's been close to 15 years in Kyle and are one of the top choices each time we discuss where to eat.

Veggie sushi including a hand roll
Lisa O.

Big shout out to Pho Thaison and their extensive vegetarian menu! My friend is visiting and a vegetarian so I was so pleased that Pho Thaison had plenty of options. Isabella helped us and she was so nice and accommodating with special requests. The restaurant including bathrooms were super clean. Color me impressed on my first foray in Kyle TX. Thanks!

Ribs & Pho!
Justin M.

Probably the best Pho south of Austin. The ambiance of the establishment is simple with focus being on the food. TV's are scarce so it encourages conversation and eating rather than needless outside influences, ahem... put down the phones! The edamame is good and traditional, the egg rolls are tasty and the seaweed salad hits all the right notes. The pork ribs I found a little dry but the flavor profile and the meat are very good. Other notable apps are the fried calamari, crab rangoons and the dynamite shrimp. On to the main dishes. I ordered the Saigon yellow curry with pork and it wasn't very good with little protein. I asked for mild and got very hot, in fact my eyes were watering the whole time. Moreover, it didn't taste like yellow curry and lacked a lot of the mellow coconut cream flavor. The fried rice was serviceable but without any flair. Finally, the Pad Thai was decent but the details were glazed over. Very little fish sauce in the back ground, only a few shrimp, and my mouth struggled to find the tamarind. That said all the signature toppings were present and cooked accordingly. As for the signature dish, I opted for Beef Pho, it's the best I've had so far. In fact it was so good, it swayed my opinion of Ramen vs Pho to be about equal depending on my mood. The broth was flavorful, the options were fresh and plentiful (sprouts, basil, cilantro, etc). The only critique I have is the eye of round should be raw at the table, so I can control the cooking. Instead it was already in the soup, making it overdone by the end of the meal. That said, I'm going back and tell the server to put it on the side and I'm sure it will be a five star experience. All in all PhoThaiSon is a good restaurant. The apps and Pho really shine and the staff is quick to give you the meal and extremely helpful. Entrees outside of the Pho need a bit of work but can satisfy in a pinch. I've been three times and will be going back for some outstanding Pho!

How are the sushi rolls here? Basic, ok? imitation crab, or soft shell?

I really love the authentic sushi they provide, the sushi rolls are great.i would say that the crab isn't imitation but please verify. I doubt you can go wrong with them no matter what you go with

I've ordered Pho With Us through DoorDash plenty of times, and one thing I've always liked is that…read morethe pho broth isn't super greasy like a lot of other places. It's flavorful without feeling heavy and has become my go-to pho spot. I recently stopped in for the first time in over two years and was honestly surprised by how much the place had changed. Everything was clean, organized, and the whole restaurant felt more welcoming than I remembered. Kamila at the front was a big help and recommended what will probably be my new regular order. The Thai tea she recommended was amazing too! Our server, Shyla, was friendly and checked on us throughout the meal. The food also came out in less than 15 minutes which was a big plus! Overall, really good food, great service, and a solid experience. Definitely coming back.

Let me start this off by saying we've come here numerous times, and it's always been consistent,…read morebut as of recent the quality has REALLY taken a downturn. We came in August 30th, around 8PM, nothing really out of the norm, ordered our food, I had gotten the (Bo Luc Lac) or shaking beef, and my wife got the spicy beef and lemongrass soup with noodles as usual. The Shaking beef was inedible, absolutely horrible, I'm not sure what cut of beef is used but it was almost like chewing on a steel toe boot, or perhaps a car tire. Spat it out within moments and sent it back, and got it removed from the tab with the server apologizing nonstop, which of course isn't her fault. 5 minutes later, my wife stares at the bowl like she just had a heart attack, and I glance over, and of course, a dead ROACH. Somehow was in the food, and it didn't float up to the top until HALFWAY she was finished eating. Absolutely vile, I cannot comprehend how a roach even got in there, was it already in the big pot of soup they use for other people's orders? Was it alive in our bowl and the steaming hot broth was poured on top and killed it? Safe to say, we didn't make a massive scene; alerted the server, she promptly got the bowl from us, and we didn't need to touch the tab for obvious reasons. The only issue is I would've loved to have spoken to a manager because this is a major health hazard, and roaches can carry E. Coli and Salmonella... I tipped our server cash regardless of the outcome of the food since this wasn't her fault and she did well in taking care of us, but we will never be back, and I suggest everyone reading this review to go elsewhere. A Cockroach in a restaurant bowl of food for a guest? Imagine how many other guests ATE their food without ever seeing one, or if it was in the massive pot how many guests ate orders without realizing there was a roach being boiled in their food. STAY. AWAY. Just disgusting.

Spacious, breezy, and shady- the perfect spot to enjoy our Texas fall weather! The server was friendly and attentive and the food came out very quickly- I'm guessing for the soups/pho they have it mostly ready to go so there was very little waiting. I got the fried mushrooms appetizer but requested them with the meal- they actually came out a little after our entrees since the entrees came out so quickly- but worth the wait! They are super delicious as other reviewers have mentioned; delightfully crispy and very seasoned- I used a little of the aioli that came with them but they didn't really need it. I think they were around $16 which feels hefty but there were also a LOT of mushrooms- my friend didn't help much and I had to take some back to the office to snack on lol. The portions for the entrees were also big; we got pho and the wonton soup. Again feels a little pricey but for me it was two meals worth of food so I'm not upset. Personally I felt like the wonton soup could use a bit more seasoning- but I don't like to complain about this because I'm under the impression pho tends to be a more lightly seasoned broth and thats the point. I did add some of the sauces they had on the table to mine to bump it up and while I enjoyed it in the end it wasn't 'omg I can't wait to order this again.' But I would still come back to try other things on the menu, just not soup I'm thinking.

Austin's Vietnamese food scene over the years has been lacking but year after year, more authentic…read morespots are opening and my search for the best authentic Vietnamese restaurant is finally complete. Austin's 100% authentic Vietnamese restaurant. Bun Bo Hue: chewy noodles, fresh big chunks of pork and soft beef. The bowl is made the way I would make it at home, tons of meat. For less than $16, it's the best value to dollar to meal in my opinion more than pho or ramen. It is a bowl full of dark and light spicy flavors of soup. Fresh toppings on top, a big piece of pork blood cake. It's as good as Houston BBH. The banh cuon, man, taste like Vietnam. Fresh fresh fresh rice rolls, not too oily which I appreciate, nice textures of the ground pork which is nicely seasoned, sliced woodear mushrooms, and crispy onions on top. The bean sprouts are nicely steamed and sliced cucumbers add a warranted cooling taste. The nuoc mam for me I want to be saltier, garlic, fish sauce but I can add more spice from the bottles on the table. When you take in a bite of the rice roll, dipped in nuoc mam, it's a taste of Vietnam street food. Plus finish it off with a fresh blanched bean sprout. The price point less than $15 is worth it. Now let's talk about my all time favorite, banh knot. Fried little cakes filled with shrimp, a little bit of coconut milk, green onions and it's a little cup of goodness. Add some nuoc mam and it holds it in the cake. It comes with fresh lettuce, sliced cucumbers, and carrots. Roll it into a little roll, bite into the cake and bite into the vegetable lettuce wrap. It's all time goodness. A 1000% must try. Btw, the dining room and all the utensils are very clean. The plates are also spotless.
