We had the shrimp salad rolls, brisket pho, and chicken fried rice. The shrimp rolls were very fresh and refreshing, packed with crisp lettuce and served with a rich peanut sauce that paired well with them. The highlight was definitely the brisket pho. It was one of the best pho I've had so far. The broth was exceptionally well balanced, with great depth of flavor and just the right richness. The portion was huge, and they were very generous with the brisket, which is something you don't always see. One bowl was enough to leave me completely full. The chicken fried rice was also well executed. Nothing particularly unique, but the flavors were balanced and everything was cooked properly. Service was very fast, and our food arrived quickly. The restaurant was quite busy when we visited and we got the last available table, though it was a weekend. Overall, a very satisfying meal and a place I'd gladly return to. read more

As I looked out at the Space Needle in the near distance, I wondered how crowded Pho Viet Anh would become. I appreciated the lovely view. The service was a little mediocre for my taste for it did not appear that the employees were thrilled to serve anyone. I had to signal attention to receive more beverage and anything else that I needed. I ordered the traditional beef broth tofu and veggie pho and added prawns. It came with the Thai basil, lime, jalapeño peppers, and bean sprouts on the side. I also ordered the fried chicken wings to take home since it was early in the day. On the table stood the additional condiments as well. It was very good and while I could eat there again, I may elect to choose someplace a little more welcoming thus my rationale for not 5 star worthy. But give it a try for yourself. read more

Their broth was definitely slightly different from OC California's pho broth that my daughter and I were used to. It had a slight sour taste to it that made it very different. My daughter and I don't usually add lime or hoisin sauce to our pho as we prefer the original taste. At most we add only the jalapeño slices to our broth to spice up the level. We prefer the original taste of pho. The broth had a deep herbal aroma and taste but the slight sourness threw us off. Their egg rolls were very good and crispy. Overall, it's wasn't bad just not the taste we were used to that's all. read more

Pho Viet Anh has been on my list to try for some time as with how liked it is by the community. As a big fan of Pho, I wanted to see how this restaurant compared to other Pho restaurants in the Seattle area. So I decided to swing by on a Saturday mid afternoon and was able to promptly get a table. The restaurant is located on a corner with limited streetside parking, I would definitely recommend coming earlier than expected in case parking is difficult, which will definitely happen on high traffic hours. Even trying to find parking mid afternoon after the meal time rush took me some time. Ambiance-wise, the restaurant is casual dine in - nicely decorated and cozy feeling with lots of windows for natural light. Service is also fast, we were able to get our food about 10 minutes after we ordered. I got the King Special for $21, since I wanted to try all the different cuts of meat that the restaurant wanted to offer. The pho is decently sized, and would fill up most people. The broth is well flavored - I would say a little too flavored if you were to taste it by itself. There is a very strong fish sauce flavor, and unfortunately not a lot of beef flavor and aromatics - there isn't a hint of cinnamon, ginger, etc. which makes the broth a bit one dimensional. I personally felt really thirsty after enjoying this broth and couldn't finish it. Despite this, the broth really helps accentuate the other components of the bowl, the cuts of meat were tender and the meat balls were sturdy. I think that price-wise, for $21, it leans on the more expensive side of pho. Most phos here will run you at least $19, which I personally think is expensive price to pay for this dish. The flavor doesn't seem to lean to my personal preference, but if you want a broth that leans savory and need to fill a pho craving in Belltown, feel free to give it a go. read more

Pho Viet Anh - King Special Pho - $21 - Vietnamese Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Ever since moving to Seattle, I have been trying different pho spots around downtown Seattle and this place is probably one of my favorites. The broth is delicious and fragrant; they are more generous with the protein than other places and the portions are so much better than Ba Bar. I always get the brisket and steak and also the brisket and beef meatballs. There isn't a lot of great parking around this place, so expect to drive around if you plan to dine in. They also stopped taking pick up orders on the food apps so you have to call the restaurant directly. read more

The beef short rib salad was really good. Five stars good! We don't see that often in San Jose, CA. The spring rolls had only two shrimp in each piece and two pieces was $8.50. I'd pass on the spring rolls (the peanut sauce was fine) but go for the short ribs. Thick enough they were juicy, but soft enough to pull off the bone. A-#1. read more

We had just landed in Seattle after a flight, and with two hungry kids, we chose this restaurant because it was the closest to our hotel. We arrived around 11:00 AM, right when they opened. Unfortunately, the service left a poor first impression. The staff didn't seem welcoming, and everyone we interacted with appeared unhappy. A simple smile or friendly greeting would have gone a long way. The restaurant wasn't busy, yet my parents waited nearly 25 minutes for their noodle dishes. When we politely asked if they could check on the order, the response felt defensive rather than helpful. We were told the menu states that the noodle dishes take longer to prepare. We completely understand that some dishes require more time, but the way it was communicated came across as dismissive instead of courteous. As for the food, the pho was underwhelming and lacked the rich flavor we were expecting. The bún noodle dish was decent, but nothing that would make us return. I understand everyone can have an off day, especially in the hospitality industry, but customer service plays a huge role in the overall dining experience. After a long day of traveling, a warm welcome and friendly attitude can make all the difference. Unfortunately, this visit didn't leave us with a positive first impression. And even if the food is great, but with an unwelcoming service, then I don't even consider to comeback. read more

The service was fine. The food came out quick and they refilled our water when we were empty. I love pho and I found their pho really good. It's one size pho. Decent amount of meat and noodles. Pho tasted really good. Disappointed in the spring rolls though. They were very little. Like it was half a normal serving. The spring rolls were good and peanut sauce was okay. Cute little restaurant walking distance from the space needle. A relaxed setting with cute decor. read more

What the actual pho. This place is GREAT. Huge portions of steak and brisket, flavorful broth, and quick, friendly service. They only have one size for pho, but it comes with a massive amount of meat (I'm pretty sure I got over 8oz ). All the side toppings were fresh, and I appreciated the extra green onion they added to the soup. You can hear the chefs (or Viet grandpas?) yelling in the back, so you know it's authentic. Prime location--though a bit sketchy. This will definitely be my go-to spot for a comforting lunch in downtown. read more

Such a cute little spot to grab some delicious food. It was our first time and this place did not disappoint. I think it might be a family run business. I got the meat all pho and spring rolls. After a long day of travel, this definitely hit the spot. It was chilly, of course outside and everything tasted so fresh and the flavors were perfect. There was a few other people dining in, but it seemed like they had a lot of to go orders. I would make this a regular spot if I lived in Seattle. read more

Pho Viet Anh is located in downtown Seattle, within walking distance of the Space Needle, making it a convenient stop--especially on a cold day when you're craving something warm. We ordered the combo special, which comes in one size. It was delicious and definitely hit the spot, though the portion was generous enough that I couldn't finish it. The spring rolls were good, but a small tweak would make them better--two spring rolls should come with two slices of lettuce instead of just one. Service was fast and efficient, and the food came out quickly after we placed our order. Overall, a solid place for comforting pho when you're in the area. read more

It was our first time trying out this pho shop as we always drove by it. It's been here since I was a teenager but we also had so many spots to choose from in Seattle growing up. However, lately there has been a decrease of the number of shops and some of the ones we loved to go to had closed down. We decided to finally try Pho Viet Anh and it was somewhat disappointing as the broth was too sweet for our taste and they forgot to blanch our bean sprouts. The protein cut for the beef was somewhat odd as it was in long string like shape. We also ordered Springs Rolls and the size was significantly smaller than a lot of other pho establishments. Overall it wasn't a terrible experience, but it was not up to our standards. I give it points for ambience and easy to find street parking. The prices are comparable to other pho shop and the service was as expected for a family own shop. read more

We were in the area to see a show at Climate Pledge Arena and opted to explore new-to-us restaurants in the Denny Triangle. Pho Viet Anh has pretty good Yelp ratings, and the place was busy. Naturally, we chose it. The restaurant is fairly well-sized with tables for 2, 4, or more. We got the last available table, and our service was swift. It is a good venue for a quick meal before a show. The Food: King Special - Pho XL Dac Biet - 3.5 Stars Menu: all of our beef cuts - steak, brisket, fatty flank, meatball*, tendon, and tripe Two orders. This is their 'every beef' bowl and comes only as a large size. The meat quality seems very good. We would have liked the steak slices served a bit pinker and finish cooking in the broth. The broth was very tasty, especially while hot. But when it started to cool, I can taste the oil as the first flavor profile. It doesn't taste nearly as good as it cooled, so I stopped eating. I brought all the rest home, separating the broth from the contents before refrigeration. By next day, the layer of oil solidified, and I removed it easily. The soup still tasted good as a leftover. Hubby can handle oily foods much better than me. He finished his. 4 Stars from him. 3 Stars from me. Shrimp Salad Rolls - Goi Cuon Tom - 1 Star Menu: Steamed, rice paper, shrimp, lettuce, woven rice noodles, scallion oil, herbs, peanut sauce This is the smallest serving of salad roll I have ever seen. It might in fact be one roll cut into 4 pieces. That can't be right. It is as small as it looks in the photo; one piece is a single bit size. Also, as you can see in the cross-section, there is a lot of rice noodles and lettuce. Other than the peanut sauce, there is very little flavor. Not recommended. We will not order this here again. read more

The food here tasted okay but the price was definitely not worth the quality or quantity. We got veggie spring rolls and it said it comes with four rolls but we got four quarter cuts of the rolls which I was not expecting. My bf also got a veggie pho and it started to taste bitter towards the end of the bowl which was weird. I got a brisket and tendon bowl with beef and the broth was good. Both bowls were $17 even though one was completely vegetarian. The place was well decorated and clean, but I feel like they are skimping on some of the quality and quantity of what they are serving. read more

To be frank, came here because of yelp reviews ... I was highly disappointed with the portions and the high price tag. I believe the price was so high because it is near the space needle and many tourists come in the area. The inside of the restaurant is cozy and urban/indie which was cool, and I liked the water cups! My partner got the BRISKET AND MEATBALL PHO which was a hefty $18, he said it was good but it was very basic to me. I have had much better. I got the Bún Gá which was mediocre at best, I found a piece of hair in the food which I didn't want to make a big deal about. The fish sauce was flavorless. I only gave this place two stars because of the very nice workers. Very hard working young ladies that have nothing to do with the food. The restaurant was very busy but the food was very disappointing at most.. Would love to give this place another shot but for the price and the difficult parking, I will unfortunately not be coming back. read more

Delicious! Party of 5 sat right away. Prompt service and delicious food! Accommodating to any special requests.

Food was overrated. Soup was just salty.. Service was ok. Our group was split up- eating at different times and was tag for gratuity. No mention when they ask us to put the entire party and then split us up in different tables. Two tables were for 2 pp on each table and ate different times and still charged the gratuity.. Just want to let people know.. Also they cut up the one spring roll and count it as 2 rolls on the menu. It's actually 2 rolls cut up into four pieces.. also FYI read more

This place is legit authentic but is different than the Orange county versions in California. I think the main difference is this tastes more Thai influenced due to the lemongrass. Recommend the combo or king size pho options....broth is tasty and the meat portions are more than what I get in California so I wholeheartedly endorse this place. The staff speak Vietnamese so it is a legit joint. The spicy beef broth is better in my opinion but has more lemongrass in it which is Thai style...this place was packed up and constantly busy on a cold rainy day whereas the 2 Thai places next door were empty read more

Street parking. Small pho shop with a high price tag. The pho had a nice aroma but the broth was on the sweeter side. It was good but not the best. It wouldn't be a place I'd crave or go out of the way for. Service was friendly and attentive, though. read more

This restaurant was a strong 5 stars for us. O ordered the tofu curry, it was balanced and generously portioned, I could have stopped when I was full but it was too good not to finish! My boyfriend got the beef pho with spicy broth which was also very generous in portion, especially the beef, and it was very beautiful to look at! The service was also great, I had my water glass refilled multiple times and the food came out quickly too. The restaurant is small but very beautiful on the inside, the music was soft and pleasant and I was happy to see that this place is family owned and going strong over 20 years. We will definitely be back when in Seattle again! read more

Came for the Steak Pho, it was delicious and was packed with meat, more than anywhere else I've been but was not overwhelming. To me, the broth was on the sweeter & aromatic side, not very beefy which I prefer, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The noodles were thin with good texture. I was served my bowl in less than 5 minutes, and so was my partner who had the Tofu Curry (also delicious). Service was consistent and kind. The restaurant is small but organized and beautiful. Great ambiance for relaxing and enjoying a good bowl. Music was relaxing. I think some may care for their broth less than other locations depending on preference but certainly worth a try. I would come again! read more

You can smell the broth before you even see the sign. Steam rolls out from the narrow kitchen, carrying that unmistakable perfume of anise, charred ginger, and beef fat. Inside, Pho Viet Anh feels like old Seattle--low ceilings, laminated menus, and regulars who've clearly been coming since day one. The room hums with the rhythm of a place that's been quietly perfecting one thing for twenty years. I ordered the Phở Đặc Biệt--brisket, rare steak, tendon, and tripe--and it arrived in a deep bowl that looked almost too full to move. The broth leaned clean but soulful, the kind that's been skimmed and tended all morning. Each sip started mellow, then deepened into roasted spice and slow-cooked sweetness. The brisket pulled apart with a spoon, the tendon melted into silk, and the noodles kept their bounce to the last bite. It's not flashy, it's just done right. On another visit I tried the lemongrass pork noodle salad. The meat came out caramelized and fragrant, layered over cool rice noodles, crushed peanuts, and pickled vegetables that hit all the contrasts--hot and cold, sweet and tangy, soft and crisp. It's the kind of bowl that makes you forget to check your phone. Service is brisk but kind, the way only a family-run shop can be. Water refilled before you notice, orders shouted back to the kitchen, everything moving like muscle memory. The laminated sign reminds you to limit dining to 45 minutes during busy hours, but it's hard to leave when the air smells this good. Two decades in, Pho Viet Anh doesn't need reinvention. It's proof that consistency, care, and a clean bowl of broth can still anchor a neighborhood. In a city full of new ramen bars and fusion cafés, this place remains quietly, confidently old school--and better for it. read more

Came here with my family after dropping off luggage at our hotel after a flight. They open early (1100) and we were all hungry. The food was good and quick. I had the pho with steak and tendon.

A standard pho experience located in the city of Seattle, I recently visited here later in the night as it was one of the few places still open. A few positive points, the restaurant was small but clean and the wait staff were quick and attentive. The food was pretty standard in flavor, nothing over cooked and all the flavors were fresh and as expected. It didn't blow me away but it definitely hit the spot that night! Overall, if you're looking to satisfy your pho cravings and are in the area, Pho Viet Anh is a great candidate to fill that void! read more

Really good Pho, located a bit north of downtown Seattle. April 29 has special significance for my brother and me, so I wanted to go to this restaurant whose name I liked (Anh means 'intellectual, bright' in Vietnamese) on that day. After visiting Pike's Market, we took the 25 minute walk to Pho Viet Anh around 7:10, 50 minutes before it closed. It was still fairly busy inside, but we were able to get a seat for 2 once it was cleaned. The two gentlemen inside were not particularly friendly, but the place was very modern and the reviews for their beef noodle soup made me want to try it. We figured 50 minutes was enough time to eat, and I wanted to try other things on the menu too. My brother was game. First was the crispy pork & shrimp rolls ($6.5). It was two small spring rolls, deep fried for a long time. Very crispy...couldn't really taste anything of what is inside. Second, 4 chicken wings, vietnamese-style. ($7). It came with a generic sweet and sour dipping sauce. The pieces were decent size, and very crispy. I misread the menu thinking it was 6 pieces (which would have been a real value). Third. My brother asked the waiter what was a must-have on the menu. The waiter gave a generic answer of beef short ribs ($5), 2 pieces of LA-style Kalbi in a decent teriyaki inspired sauce. The pieces were small and grisly, but actually a good deal. I ordered some steamed rice to go with it ($2.5), which was a good choice. Fourth. Two big bowls of Pho. They only come in one size, and it translated to what a large would be in most places. My brother got the Combo (steak, brisket, fatty flank, and meatball for $17). I got the King special (steak, brisket, fatty flank, meatball, tendon, tripe for $19). Both had plenty of meat, though wish they gave more toppings (just basil and bean sprouts with a slice of jalapeno and lime. The broth was good, a slight sweetness and not oily. The oiliness of Pho will often cause me gastro problems, but surprisingly, my stomach felt OK as we walked over to the Pier. It was a good dinner for this special occasion, and really enjoyed spending this last day of our trip with my brother. read more

This pho definitely stands out in terms of broth flavor - it's probably one of the few places where I remember more of what the broth tasted like since it was different from what you typically get. The seating in here is pretty spacious, and we came with a large group and merged some tables together. I got the steak and tendon pho, which is my usual go-to. The steak pieces were thin and tender, and the tendon was so soft and well cooked. The portion size was smaller than usual though, and the prices were also higher than your average pho. They serve everything individually including the usual veggie accompaniments, so you have your own portion of it. Overall, service was friendly and the food was good. I'm just a little hesitant to come back because of the high prices. read more

This was the first spot we ate at on our first trip to Seattle so it set the bar, and boy did it set the bar high. TL;DR 5/5 would recommend and would definitely make a return visit to this establishment. Staff seated us quicklyfor lunch, and served us promptly and with a great demeanor. As a Vietnamese immigrant, I normally judge a Vietnamese joint based on their pho, but Thursday 4/25 just wasn't a pho day for me, so I ended up getting one of my other favorite staples, a noodle dish: the Bún Tôm Nuóng (noodle salad with grilled prawns). Prawns were grilled perfectly and abundant, nuoc mam was on point, and while I wasn't expecting to be able to finish the entire bowl after a 6 hr flight, I wiped it clean. My GF and friend both got the Gà Xã (lemongrass and onion chicken noodle salad), which my GF also housed, and our other friend got the Suon Bò Nuong (grilled beef short ribs rice plate), which he KO'd. Oh, and we started with the Cha Gio Man (crispy pork and shrimp rolls), Goi Cuon Tom (shrimp salad rolls), a Tra Thai (Thai iced coffee) and three Cà Phê Sūa Dá (Vietnamese iced coffee), all of which were sublime. Had I worn sweatpants I probably could have eaten a second helping. We ended up getting three Cá Phê Sūa Dá to go and started the rest of our Seattle trip...what a great start to it. A++ read more
