Under new ownership, Pho Twins is absolutely wonderful and delicious! Get the beef spring rolls, or any of the appetizers tbh Older sister thought her Pho's broth was balanced and savory. My vermicelli tasted fresh with all of veggies, good sized shrimps, and plenty of chicken. If you never had any of the above, make sure to also add bean sprouts to your pho, chili, etc. it makes the flavors pop! The service was quick, joyful, and attentive! The atmosphere feels peaceful with their Vietnamese music playing in the background. This is definitely a good spot for lunch meetings, big families, or just a date night. read more

Pho Twins - NOT SATISFIED!!! When I open the box of Beef Broccoli which is a very small food I have seen. - Vietnamese Near Me - Modesto, California

We were mtg w/a friend who lives in Tracy. There was nothing open on a Sunday in Atwater (the 1/2 way point for all of us), so we decided on Modesto. This place had good reviews so I was excited since I haven't had great Vietnamese food in Fresno. Was hoping this would be a treat. But it wasn't. Service wasn't great. No one ever checked on us to see if we needed anything. It wasn't crazy busy in there either since we there at off hours. Ambiance is standard for this kinda place. Whatever. Pretty big menu tho. Decided to do appetizers for dinner. ORDER: Crispy Crab Cakes: There was no discernible crab in them. Not even fake crab. No real flavor inside. It just tasted of overly greasy crust. But it was crispy I'll say. Choked down 1 & gave up. Fried Rolls: Normally the thing I love most at Vietnamese restaurants. This was mushy inside & bland. Pork & Shrimp Spring Roll: Wasn't filled very much. Like barely there noodles. One section I ate had none but had white radish strips, so I thought it was just lettuce, pork, shrimp & radish. I don't like a ton ton of noodles but it needed triple the amt to be an avg amt of noodle. The best thing about this was the peanut sauce. I give them high marks for their peanut sauce. Fried got pork vermicelli & shrimp spring rolls. Her high praise was "they gave a lot of meat." But otherwise her reaction was "it's ok." Other friend got garlic butter chicken wings. I had one. There was no garlic flavor on the wings but there was a bit of garlic & onion on the plate w/them. Otherwise, they tasted like naked wings. I like naked wings & admit they were cooked well. She also got brisket & flank pho w/out noodles. She said meat was tender & delicious. I really really wanted to like them more than I did. This is only the 2nd or 3rd time I've ever reviewed something where I gave less than 4 stars. Not my cup of tea, but glad they seem to have found their audience since they don't have poor reviews overall. Happy for them. Still on the quest for good Central Valley Vietnamese! read more

Review for Take-Out Came in on a Saturday afternoon & we were greeted as soon as we walked in. He handed us menus to take a look at before ordering. The decor really went with the restaurant name. There were multiple clock displays. "On Brand" as the kids say. We ordered the Large Combination Pho, Seafood Chow Mein, Tofu Pad Thai, & House Special Fried Rice. After 20 mins, our order was ready! The Tofu Pad Thai had the fried tofu which I prefer to the soft tofu & the flavor was yums. The House Special Fried rice was good too. My parents enjoyed the Seafood Chow Mein & the Combo Pho - no complaints there! One of my top three Pad Thais in Modesto (Yes, top 3 - behind Thai House & Sticky Rice). read more

It's a quicky spot--blink and you might miss it, but your nose won't. Food was alright. I ordered pho ga and was greeted by chicken slices that looked like they came straight from the deli counter. Not quite the steamy, shredded comfort I was hoping for. Flavor-wise, it leaned more toward "spa water" than "soul-warming broth." The location is wedged in a lively little strip next to Teriyaki King, a mini mart, and a gas station--so if you're craving pho, a lottery ticket, and unleaded fuel, you're in luck. Now, about the entrance... when you walk in, there's a distinct aroma that can only be described as Eau de Sewer with notes of stagnant mystery. It's not the restaurant's fault--it seems to be a building-wide plumbing situation--but it's definitely not the scent you want wafting in while you're trying to slurp noodles. Overall, it's a functional pit stop if you're hungry and nearby, but maybe bring nose plugs and keep your pho expectations modest. I did not include pics as it was eaten quickly as I had slipped away from a nearby school sports game and brought some sustenance to hungry track players. read more

Long overdue but I am not sure what has happened. Not sure if it's a change in ownership/management, chef, or their food supplier but this place isn't good anymore. My last few visits had some serious inconsistency. I ordered a chicken bahn mi, only to get a French roll bread. I agree with one reviewer here, I get if they run out of supplies but at least be up front and let the customer know. What's worse is the French roll didn't taste fresh.... Speaking of freshness, after that visit, I ordered the vermicelli bowl and the veggies that come with it looked questionable. Like the lettuce appeared to be browning. I had to pick it off my plate since I wasn't going to risk eating it. However the worst thing was my drink! My drink I had ordered was a passion fruit drink. I have had it before. I'm familiar with how it tastes like but omg, this time, it was gross. It had this nasty sour, bitter taste to it to where it had a fizz. Idk if they put soda or what but it wasn't good. I took two sips and that was it. I'm convinced that the fruit went bad and they tried to salvage much what they could. I get inflation has made food costs soar and what not, but that doesn't have to reflect on quality.. It would help a lot if the menu was significantly reduced. Each time I visited, it seemed as if the menu kept getting bigger and bigger. Smaller menu would mean less produce they would have to purchase therefore keeping decent food standards. Also, the sauces on the tables need some serious cleaning. Incredibly sticky if you try to pick it up, and where it's stored, even worse. With so many misses, I haven't returned since and don't plan on it tbh. read more

Absolutely delicious food every time. We usually get the pho but grubhubed some different items like the bahn mi sandwich and some other dishes. It was so fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this place for fresh Vietnamese food. read more

The atmosphere is very clean, open, a lot of seating and the server was very welcoming and sweet. I gave this place 3 stars because I've honestly had better pho. The broth taste was okay and the noodles had a different taste to them which I've never experienced before. The tendon and the rare steak tasted delicious but it was those slight differences that made me rate it the way I did. read more

Because we can never have enough pho and always on the hunt to try different places. This place is a way off the freeway but the other spots that were closer we already passed. The name was cute so decided to stop by. I love the interior decorations. Very cute l. The place is spacious. Lots to choose from on the menu. Ordered a chicken pho as usual for the kids. The broth was very salty, probably either last night broth or one too many pinches of MsG. My son drank a lot of water which he generally does not. I ordered a Bun Rieu and it was a little too much on the MsG as well, definitely flavorful. They do not skimp on the shrimp (most places have one or two, there was 4 in mine). Haven't seen it too much but they added imitation crab also. The meat isn't shaped like a meatball that I am use to. There was also silken tofu. Give it a try if you like very flavorful soup. read more

I'll do it again! I found this place because the food in the hospital was horrendous. Luckily Yelp never disappoints. The name attracted me, and my wife was having trouble eating solid heavy food. I thought what the heck let's try it. This place was amazing! Pho was fresh and hot. Had all the traditional fixings. Basil, lime, cilantro, sprouts, sriracha and hoisin. I've never ordered the Seafood Pho so I thought meh I'll give it a go. . Fish balls are awesome, shrimp, imi crab. Just perfect. Spring roll had that peanut sauce that was just delicious. The veggies were fresh and delicious. The Bahn Mi..... Chefs kiss. I've had my share of sammiches and this one was the first I've ever had on a French roll that fills the takeout box. I ate half and half for lunch the next day. Get the Thai Tea. It's a nice dessert treat. We already made a second order from the place. They are fast and super friendly. The inside is clean and traditional Pho restaurant. Love it. I'm coming back. Doesn't matter what time it is, it's always Pho o'clock when you roll in there. read more

SO and I have come here thrice already in the past month and are huge fans! Pho O' Clock is located behind an unassuming gas station. The inside is spacious with clock decor (hence the name) and tiny hats hanging on the ceiling by wire. We typically order the following: - Grilled pork spring rolls - super fresh and great with extra peanut dipping sauce - Strawberry smoothie - the SO swears by the powers of the smoothie-making man here. The strawberries taste fresh and is super refreshing. - Pho dac biet - super comforting and huge portion We have also ordered some other things like the fish sauce wings (recommend), the Pad Thai extra spicy (highly recommend!), garlic noodles, chicken chow mein, and garlic butter chicken wings. All are worth a try! The only gripe is I would also ask if their Mung Bean Coconut or Green Thai Tea are available and they say they don't have it the three times we've come. Coming here has become a ritual after our weekend morning bowling session and we look forward to being back in the new year! read more

I loved this place, food was always good. If I couldn't come, I would order through DoirDash. But today, we placed a to go order. One of the items we ordered was the Vietnamese banh mi. They put 4 measly strips of the meat, so the sandwich is mostly bread & veggies. This is cheating! If they continue this, I hope they end up losing customers. read more

Pho Twins - Vietnamese Banh Mi - Vietnamese Near Me - Modesto, California

Large restaurant w room for 6 person groups all day. Clean welcoming interior, pick a seat and enjoy a very full menu. I was craving a standard bowl of Pho and did not go to crazy. The provided basil, bean sprouts and jalapeños were fresh and crisp. The broth by itself was flavorful and had a smooth beef flavor. I am just a sucker for Hoisin sauce, I am sorry, I know some people say it is ruined. To each their own! The spring rolls, were fresh, but lacked any actual contrast of flavors. Possibly an herb like basil, or mint, would give it a pop of freshness. You are provided a house peanut sauce, it was not bad and had a good texture. I ended up dunking them in my witches brew, to get them really going. The only real downside to this location is the lack of parking, this is part of a gas station parking lot, with a very busy mini shopping center. I will be back, with them being open at 10:00AM It really is Pho O Clock! read more

The food is phenomenally good. I ordered spring rolls to start off with, The peanut sauce is bomb as I even ordered extra as an entree I ordered their special chicken fingers with fries. Also they gave me some raw veggies everything was good. My son goes here often he swears the bon mei sandwiches are the best! The portions are generous as they're prices are extremely reasonable 5 stars from me all around the ambiance is very nice. read more

Pho Twins - Caramelized Pork Belly - Vietnamese Near Me - Modesto, California

Came out here to visit family in the area and decided to get some soup before I head back to San Jose. Wasn't expecting much from this place because i feel like nothing compares to Vietnamese food in San Jose. I just ordered the combination pho and Vietnamese coffee. The pho came out super hot and they do not skimp on the noodles and meat. To my surprise, this pho in this small town was really really good. I feel like they can compete with any restaurant in the Bay Area. And the coffee that I got gave me just enough energy for the long ride home. And another thing I wanted to mention was , this was the only Asian restaurant in this area with clean restrooms lol. Definitely will be back and try other things on the menu when I'm back in the area for sure!! read more

When they first opened, this was my go-to! My favorite pho in Modesto. Since last year, my visits have dramatically dropped due to inconsistency and lack of quality. It doesn't taste the same anymore. Service is usually so so, which honestly I expect from most Asian restaurants especially if the OGs are serving. The inside is always clean and quiet so I will say that's enjoyable. Last week I ordered viet coffee and spring rolls to go on my way to work. I got to work early to eat and there was a hair on them. Gross. I called and the host was very nice and said they will remake it for me and she will throw in another viet coffee for the inconvenience. I hung up and opened the peanut sauce and it looked like there were mold spots. Later found out it was cornstarch which I've never heard anyone use to thicken a thick sauce... something wrong with that recipe. Anyways. A couple days later I called to get my refire and asked if I can change it to banh mi because I was turned off from spring rolls completely from the hair to the sauce. I go to pick up and I didn't get a viet coffee which was fine because nothing was wrong with my first, but don't offer something you're not going to give. I run an errand and come home to eat and my banh mi is not a baguette. It's a French bread roll.... If you're out, that's fine but you need to be transparent to customers. Especially if it's a remake from another mess up on your end. Very disappointing. I honestly don't think I'll be going back. Please do better, you guys used to be great. I wasn't going to review after the first few mess ups but it's just not okay. read more

Finally, I found a good place with good food and soups for this winter. We ordered Combination Pho, Crab Noodle Soup, and Wonton Egg Noodle Soup. All the soups are hot and tasty. Fried egg rolls are good too! I also ordered one portion of Combo chow mein Togo and it was really delicious. Young man working today was running around all the time, thanks him for a good service. The atmosphere is good, too! Definitely will be back because they got a big menu over there. read more

I am not sure what motivates people like me to eat hot soup in 104 degree weather, but here we are getting pho! The restaurant was easy to find, in the same plaza as Walmart neighborhood market so plenty of parking. We appreciated the quick service, BIG pho portions as well as tasty! Only minus is that credit/debit card payments add an extra 4% to the bill so next time cash. read more

Always enjoy to support local restaurants that are coming up in the area! Glad to see that they are finally open after having their sign up for a while and finally got to try it during the first month of opening shop. Came in on a Sunday during noon and got seated immediately for a party of two. I must say that the interior shocked me upon walking in. The restaurant is a lot bigger inside than I imagined. It is in a little of a sketchy area with not much parking, but once you go inside they have a great amount of seating to accommodate many guests. So don't worry about finding seating! The decor inside is pretty unique with "clocks" on a lightly colored interior providing a great vibrance to the ambiance. Our server was a young gentleman who was very kind and very attentive. The menu is broken down with appetizers, pho noodles, rice plates, sandwiches AKA banh mi, and even stir fry! We ordered the pork & shrimp spring rolls, large beef spicy noodle soup (bun bo hue), and grilled short rib banh mi. I am giving this restaurant three stars because unfortunately, the food was lacking the WOW factor and did not execute as well as it should have. The large bun bo hue was a generous portion with GREAT amounts of meat. I was very surprised by how much meat they gave and would not complain over that. Sadly, the broth was lacking in flavor. The spice factor was not there along with the lemongrass essence that is one of the dish's main components. It tasted more seafood-like than anything. What really disappointed us was the grilled short rib sandwich. Although it was a great portion size and the fries were very crispy, the meat itself was super tough. It was very difficult to chew and made the sandwich inedible. Despite the first experience not being as positive as I hoped, I will come back again to try their pho and other dishes next go round. read more

If I could give zero stars I would. The restaurant was very dirty, sticky, dead plant, the aquarium was green. Hate to see kitchen! Food not as ordered, and not what was portrayed on menu.

Came here randomly one day because one of the other Vietnamese spots didn't do indoor dining. And let me tell you. It was a blessing. The pho has so much flavor I didn't even need to put any extra sauces into the broth. I really only had the pho so far and their delicious grilled pork spring rolls. They were both delicious. The drinks were also delicious as well. The bahn mi I saw there looks so appetizing that I'm going back to try it. read more

The service was somewhat nice so this review is simply about cleanliness, as well as the food and our experience here with that. We ordered spring rolls as an appetizer and they were super bland. Normally there are vibrant veggies and spring mix in those but what we received was iceberg lettuce that was going bad and a few strips of what tasted like stale beef. The peanut sauce was okay. HOWEVER the biggest issue we had was witnessing two cockroaches crawling on our table, onto the wall, and then to the table behind us on the condiment area and where they kept the spoons and utensils. It was foul and I did let the worker up front know about it and he apologized. I wasn't able to eat the pho we had and I was already disgusted that I used the condiments from the table on my spring rolls. We paid for the spring rolls and walked out. This was a horrible experience and I hope they can safely get rid of the pests in their restaurant. read more

First time here, sat immediately just after 1 pm on a Monday. Ordered large Chicken Pho, Grilled Short Rib Sandwich and a diet coke. Food served promptly and hot. Sandwich served with fries which were actually very good. The sandwich bread was excellent as you might expect from a Vietnamese Sandwich. The sandwich ingredients were drier & less spicy than I usually expect from that type of sandwich but still very tasty. The Pho was very good. Parking & seating were ample. Definitely worth a try. read more
