You already know that food about to slap when you see the kid with the iPad sitting in the corner watching YouTube, and the service feels rushed. 9.3/10 read more

This place never misses!!! It's tucked away in a little house looking restaurant. They are always busy. They have several seating options - tables for 2, group tables and a community table. They food is ready rather quickly and is very fresh. The pho bowl is so big, it could feed at least 3 people. The prices are good - especially with the portion sizes and the taste of the food. read more

Tried pho for the first time. Guy that took our order was very down to earth and friendly. Amazing service. Ordered the #1 pho with meatballs. Very generous portion and barely finished it. The steak was very tender and juicy and the noodles were airy and light. Experience was phenomenal. Will be going back again. read more

Pho Thien Phat - Vietnamese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I recently decided to try this spot since I'm just starting to get into pho, and I was happy with my visit. The food came out extremely quickly, and we were seated right away, which I really appreciated. I ordered the number 8, and overall I enjoyed it. The only thing that threw me off a bit was the TVs in the restaurant playing political news the whole time. With the state of everything right now, it just felt like a vibe killer while trying to enjoy a meal. It's a small thing, but switching that up would make the atmosphere a lot more enjoyable in my personal opinion. That said, the food itself was solid, and I can see myself coming back for another visit. read more

Really authentic pho with a beautifully light, clean broth exactly how it should be. You can tell a lot of care goes into the flavor without it being overly heavy or greasy. The pho alone is worth coming back for. Tried the bún bò Huế as well which was a solid dish, but a bit too heavy on the spices for my personal taste, so I'd rate that a 4/5. Still well-prepared and hearty, just more intense than expected. Service was fast and efficient, and the food came out quickly. Overall, a great spot for authentic Vietnamese comfort food, especially if you love a lighter, well-balanced pho. Definitely recommend! read more

Awesomeness!!! Great service, great food. Like many other restaurants they've had to downsize on multiple levels but the food and vibe are all still there. Well done! read more

The food was really good, and the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. However, I do wish the TVs hadn't been playing political content during dinner. It made the atmosphere feel a bit uncomfortable and took away from what otherwise could have been a relaxing experience. With everything going on in the world, sometimes it's nice to have a space where you can just enjoy a meal without being reminded of the political climate. read more

Pho Thien Phat - Number 8. Chin, Nam Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

This section of town is an enclave and there are several Vietnamese restaurants. I liked the look of the vegetarian (chay) options at this one. It was a very fast pace of service; I probably hadn't been in my seat five minutes before my order was taken, and this distinctively fresh cuisine doesn't take long to make either. My summer rolls were straightforward, but satisfying. More importantly, the grilled tofu over rice I got was mouthwatering dish. Not because of the tofu itself, which was a bit sweet in flavor and not huge in portion. No, the broken rice was incredibly aromatic and I savored it in combination with the tofu, vegetables, and the chili oil available at the table. I didn't get a huge portion for this being an edge of town kind of place.I was also a tad confused on whether I could pay with my cards or not, but ultimately I got good food of a sort that I wasn't sure I could find in Richmond. read more

Just ok pho. The broth was decent, but the noodles are clumpy, and the brisket doesn't taste good. The search for great pho in RVA continues

I haven't been to this place in years. It has changed to Pho Thien Phat it was formally Pho So 1. Well, decided to give it a go. I always go in with open honest mind, and hope it still just a as good as the former. So I am a creative habit so I normally start with "Goi Cuon" fresh shrimp & pork roll. You get 2 of them, but couldn't resist in digging in. Lol I loved the pork, shrimp, lettuceand rice wrap, but their was to much rice noodle filling for my taste. Tried the main dish "Bun Tom Thit Nuong" Grilled pork & Shrimp on rice vermicelli with no peanut on mine. It wasn't to bad l, but the pork was a little bland. All in all it was good. I may come back if I am in the area, but knowing me I am going to try other places read more

Finally got to check this place out after years of wanting to do so. My daughter joined me and upon entering, took a deep breath and said, "You know this place is gonna be good!" She wasn't wrong. We arrived shortly after they opened but it didn't take long for it to fill up. Service was prompt and friendly and food was on our tabke within minutes. We both really enjoted the summer rolls and pho. We'll definitely return again in the future. read more

Pho Thein Phat is a great place. Tucked away, it is an unassuming spot. But, if you know you know. While the other location is definitely better in my opinion, this is still a top 5 Vietnamese spot in RVA. Service is good as well. Good boba too! read more

The food is delicious. The service was awesome. If you like grilled pork chop is the plate.

There is no shortage of Pho places in RVA, but this one is a steady fave of mine. Kinda hard to find off of the Horsepen area, you'll need to look behind Full Key to figure out where they are. With veggie options for pho, that's always a plus, as well as delicious bahn mi if you're not looking for a soup situation. Solid choice if you're craving a standard pho experience. The staff are kind, and mostly hands off with your experience unless you need something. The place is ideal for groups 5-6 max, and isn't very loud so good for conversation. Not the cleanest place imo, the bathroom wasn't my fave to use. Parking is easy, they have a lot in front. read more

I got the pho($13) with slices of eye round steak, well done flank, fat brisket, tendon, and tripe and Vietnamese iced coffee ($6). The broth was one of the better ones in Richmond. Savory with the right amount of saltiness. There was also a generous amount of meat in the soup which I was surprised about. I very much enjoyed the Pho. Vietnamese coffee was strong and sweet, a very typical but good drink to have. Overall one of the better pho places in RVA, the generous meat portion is a big plus and a reason to come back again.

Many say Pho Tay Do or Pho 79 is better, but I don't know, I'm just reviewing on my experience here. Very satisfied with my bowl at Pho Thien Phat. Broth had the right amount of herbal punch to give me that euphoric Pho feeling. You can just tell from the first taste of the broth whether it's too light or just off in general. If Pho Tay Do or Pho 79 is better then I'm excited to try those as well because Pho Thien Phat was legit! And that's coming from someone who grew up in Falls Church, VA with Pho 75, Pho Sate, etc. You may be tempted by Richmond BBQ and burgers, but don't sleep on Richmond Pho! read more

Pho Thien Phat - Richmond Pho has my respect - Vietnamese Near Me - Richmond, Virginia

I was craving Pho, so we scanned Yelp and decided to try someplace new. Set off Horesepen in the middle of a lot of restaurants. it's pretty easy to fund. We were great and seated right when we walked in. A server arrived at our table pretty quickly to take our order, I had questions, and she didn't speak any English, so she walked away and sent someone to our table. This server answered our questions, though it was pretty abrupt. I wanted a bubble tea, too, yet he walked away too fast for me to order. Orders came out very fast. Egg roll filling was very dry I was surprised. Pho was just noodles and tofu - no vegetables. Broth was pretty flavorless Pork chop was flavored nicely What we ate: Pho Chay- vegetable noodles soup with tofu Cha Goa- pork and shrimp egg rolls Com Thit Nuong- grilled pork chop on broken rice My rating rationale  +.5 Service +.5 Food~Taste/flavor/quality + 1 Presentation +.5 Atmosphere/vibe +1 Value read more

We stopped by here from lunch and the plsce is packed! This is a big restaurant though so there were still room for my friend and I. Orders got taken within 5 minutes and food came within 19 minutes of us sitting down. The broken rice and pork chop was delicious. I love how tender, soft and perfectly seasoned they are. Portions are big too. The summer roll is good, small rolls and meat are thin though! My friend couldn't stop eating the fried rice eventhough he was so full. We also got the rainbow desset and it is not sweet at all! read more

I ordered the small no. 1 Pho and a vietnamese iced coffee. 10 out of 10 on both. There was a lot of meat and noodles. More meat than other places. The coffee was rich and creamy and large. The service was quick and friendly. And the restaurant was large and had lots of room for small and large parties. read more

I'm new to pho but I'm addicted. I ordered the Pho with brisket and thinly sliced beef (~$13) and a limeade (~$5). It was really good and the cold limeade compliented the piping hot pho perfectly. Although, I thought the limeade was on the expensive side I didn't regret it. I seasoned my pho (controversial, I know) with sriracha, hoison sauce, and chili oil. I added cilantro, mint, white onions, extra lime, and jalepenos. It was delicious. I noted, the fresh herbs and lime they gave me was fresh and free from blemishes. The service was great, every waitress checked in on me and my order was taken promptly. The resturant was nice and clean on the inside. I visited while on crutches and it was easy for me to get around. I would like to mention that the older lady that works there was extremely comforting and helpful. She made me feel special and I appreciated that. I saw in other reviews that it was a little dificult to find, I agree but that is not a deal breaker for me and was worth the search. read more

Was feeling under the weather and wanted to try a new pho spot in rva. I stumbled upon this place from yelp and decided to give it a go. The inside was very cute and homey (although a little hot), and we got seated right away. This place was one of the best pho spots I've ever tried in my life! Top 3 for sure. The broth was so rich and flavorful you didn't need any sauces! The price was a little steep compared to others I've been to, however, still satisfied w my overall experience (: read more

I LOVE this place, definitely would consider it a hole in the wall spot but those are obviously the best. I've been here twice now, service is great and fast. It get super busy around dinner time but they are always on top of things. I ordered the Pho with beef brisket. Previously I believe I got the 3 or 4 option and didn't enjoy the meats that much. This time the meat was perfect and not as chewy as my last experience. It was deliver and very affordable. Portion is huge which I definitely loved. I'm excited to try the other spots in the area read more

Off the beaten path. As most delicious food places are. There were a few other Vietnamese places around here but I decided to go with my gut feeling from prior review photos. Plenty of parking in the front. I thought the price point was good and the food was just as good. It all looked and tasted fresh. We were greeted when we walked in and given a little extra time as my kiddos were looking over what they wanted. Didn't feel rushed. We really enjoyed our meal. read more

Small, simple, quick, and great food! People working there are always nice too. Love their pho, of course, but their bo kho (Vietnamese beef stew with red broth is killer!) It is life-changing! Such a kick of flavor to your mouth. It's so aromatic and unbelievably flavorful! I highly suggest breaking a way from pho to try it at least once. The only downsides are that the last price hike seems a bit excessive, even with inflation, and it is crazy hot inside in the summer. They won't let you down on the food though. read more

Super super quick and good! I love coming here for a quick lunch. They're super fast about bringing you a drink, taking your order, and the food to table. I'd say it only took 5-6 minutes from ordering to get my food. I typically order the #4, which is the pho with various cuts of meat, and put in the basil, cilantro, bean sprouts, and lime juice. The broth is a little sweeter than I'm accustomed to but it's still super good. I tilt my bowl and scoop out every drop! Hence, why I don't have a photo for this meal. They have some fruity drinks and Vietnamese coffee, and they even give you a cute heart shaped stopper. My friend got hers super quick and we were both too stunned to speak. Ha! The parking lot is gravelly so if you don't like that, be aware, they do take cards so don't worry about having to have cash on hand. read more
