    Chicken pho
    Monica J.

    Our visit here for lunch was great. The service was friendly, the food was fresh, and the pricing as expected. I am not usually a big fan of pho but after our visit today I will need to rethink it. Maybe it was the bistro feel that hit home. I much more preferred this spot to their location in I10.

    I've been here several of times before now but I just stopped myself from devouring the delicious food before taking a picture for this review. So, I spoiled the review around the seventeenth word but sometimes excitement does that to me. I always order the same thing, although I have tasted other dishes. It's just too good for me to try and get something else. The tofu is good and comes with some flavor of its own. The curry is not spicy but the salsa you can add does the trick. The parking test passed. The location allows for that in comfortable quantities. The service was good and although we didn't find our favorite taro flavor tea we did get a good recommendation. The ambiance is set out for you to just enjoy the company and low light while looking out to Mesa's never-ending constructions. If you're looking for a good curry and tofu, look no further. You can thank me later and provecho!

    Finally! Pho Tre Bien has made it's way to the Westside! And it's everything I was hoping it would be. If you're a fan of the original PTB, you'll love this spot too. I decided to head here for lunch on one of my solo excursions and this was actually kind of perfect for dining alone. Don't get me wrong, this is still a great place to eat with a friend or even a small group, but it's just comfortable enough with window-side tables that eating alone doesn't make you feel like a monster with no friends. Everything about the ambiance is quite wonderful really. The day I went, each table had a little vase with a couple of pink carnations. This bistro uses a nice mix of wood, brick, and tile throughout the tiny space. Even though it's tucked away into a pretty modest plaza, I didn't feel it from inside PTBB. I also really liked the patio area which had beautiful flowers in full bloom and a few tables. I think next time (if it isn't too hot) that's where I'll sit. The patio also leads me to believe they may be dog friendly, but I'll ask next time around. The food and service are exactly the same which in this case is a good thing. I ordered the Charbroiled Ribeye (which also happens to be the very first dish that I ordered at the OG Pho Tre Bien). Just as delicious as it's ever been. Just a heads up, by American standards this is a small dish (but it does have a lot of rice and rice is pretty filling) so I like to think this is the perfect dish for lunch or a light dinner. I can't remember exactly how much my drink and food ran me up, but it had to be in the ballpark of $15. I just remember it was exactly what I expected from my previous experiences with PTB. I also saw that they run a lunch special here. I saw it after I had ordered, but it was around $7 which is a pretty sweet deal on any meal here. I really love this newly opened spot and it definitely is up to par with what I've come accustomed to from PTB. One of the best locally owned restaurants in EP! I'm so glad to see them doing well enough that they're able to open multiple locations that are just as lovely as the original.

    Negatives: Been here a few times, and the pho...not good. I'm talking specifically about the beef pho. The broth is waaaaay too watery and lacks rich flavor like a true pho beef broth. When I order rare meat, I want to see pink when it is served! Not a chunk of cooked meat plopped in a bowl. The meat is also oddly thick. It should be delicately sliced so that it can cook quickly in front of your eyes. Instead I felt like I was biting into a dense chopped hot dog. Positives: The appetizers are reliable and affordable. Spring rolls with peanut sauce and chicken skewers are my favorite. The ambiance is nice, and the flowing stream creates a soothing outdoor patio feel, and dim lighting makes you feel transported to a calm, relaxing location. Strangely, the thai tea is pretty good! Overall, not terrible. But this place has a lot to work to do if they want pho lovers to return! Until then, they will remain busy because lots of customers cannot tell the difference.

    Not sure how someone thought that the 2 orders of egg rolls burnt this badly were edible. This would never be served dine in. Seems like they're trying to get away with bad quality food due to the fact that it's carry out only and your food is packed up beforehand. The Pho was decent. The Taro boba tea had chunks of ice in it and the boba were over cooked as well, thus very mushy. Ultimately we did not consume half of our order tonight. Have had issues with this restaurant in the past but wanted to give it another try. Will now not be going back.

    Having never eaten Ph (also known as pho), I was a little reluctant to try ethnic food after I last tried Korean and desensitized most of my tastebuds for almost a week. My misconception has always been that ethnic foods are all comprised of bold flavors and piquant spice. Thankfully, Pho Tre Bien has refuted this notion. It's a rare moment when I enjoy being wrong. The delightful flavors and aromatic qualities of each sauce, protein and vegetable are well-balanced on the palate. It was a nice surprise to find sophisticated and transparent culinary techniques at such a quaint location.  We started with a simple appetizer of shrimp spring rolls. They were pleasant and had a thin wrapper of rice paper, served with a light chocolate sauce with peanuts, along with an assortment of dipping sauces. I at least attempted the Sriracha and Hoisin sauce, but I am a little wimpy about the heat. I typically only request water when I'm trying something new, so that my palate is not influenced. The Thai Tea is an authentic beverage, with a light sweetness from the tapioca pearls, served in a bright orange color (which is a result of the type of tea used). For the main dish, I ordered the Pho with chicken breast, which came with a plate of optional toppings, as well as the Pan Fried Noodles (Vermicelli) with Beef. The bean sprouts, jalapeño slices, onions, a bit of lime, and cilantro changed the chicken Pho into a hearty soup. Not a single ingredient overpowered the other, but rather worked together to establish a true level of umami. The vermicelli was served in a modern presentation, much like a little nest, with a thin layer of spice and broth along the bottom of the bowl, lightly saturating the cabbage, thin noodles, sliced beef, chopped vegetables (carrots, broccoli and onions). It was easy to manage with chopsticks, but thankfully Pho Tre Bien is up with the times and also offers silverware.  The service was superb as well. Acting the role of hostess/ front of the house/ server, Gracie was friendly, knowledgeable and hip. She was quick to offer suggestions and made sure we felt welcomed. I definitely will be returning. While this particular location is a bit smaller than neighboring ethnic food restaurants, the ambiance was charming and homey.   When you're in the area, consider Pho Tre Bien, rather than the usual fast and easy fallback choices in the Kernplace area, like Whataburger, McDonald's or Taco Bell. Your palate deserves a better experience. It's also nice that the location extends, in case you need a more quiet area.

    The Pho was delicious. We both had the Brisket Pho. It came with plenty of veg but Cilantro instead of Basil Leaves. Im taking off a star cos the Pho was not served hot enough temperature wise. It should've been piping hot. That & Basil Leaves would've made it perfect. Having said that, the service certainly makes up for it, ths staff are impecable and polite, their service would earn them 5 stars! It gets busy around noon so try to arrive for an earlier or later lunch, unless you fancy waiting or sitting outside or at the bar. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated & the restrooms are immaculate. Good experience, perfect service, but please start serving Basil Leaves & serving the food hotter!

    First time eating here. Service and food were amazing! I had the new fish dish and it was tasteful…read moreand delicious. I had them add chile to make it extra spicy. My family had pho, egg rolls and fried rice and they were all yummy as well. Will definitely return and recommend to families and friends!

    I'm leaving this review to share a serious safety concern with a recent takeout order…read more I ordered a soup and a dessert through DoorDash, and the soup container (it was a DRINK container sealed with TAPE) melted from the heat, causing the food to spill and burn my husband's leg. This resulted in an actual injury, his leg is blistering from how bad it was, it is not just an inconvenience. We only received a $5.00 refund and a $10.00 credit for a $19.00 product that didn't only ruin our night, it caused an injury. What was most disappointing was the response when I contacted the restaurant. There was no apology, no acknowledgment of the injury, and no indication that they would even review whether the packaging met appropriate safety or legal guidelines for extremely hot broth. I was simply told to go through DoorDash, which felt dismissive given the circumstances. I understand accidents can happen, but situations involving injuries should be handled with care, accountability, and basic concern for customer safety. I hope this feedback encourages safer packaging practices and a more responsible (and empathetic) response when issues like this are reported.
