The is the most welcoming place I have ever been to super kind staff specially VN made my day I recommend to everyone!!

Pho
Emma P.

I LOVE THIS SPOT. The servers are always so kind and friendly and they always suggest the perfect bowl for you. The pho is always great and so are their banh mi's and summer rolls. They're always busy but other than that the ambiance is cool.

Pho

The worst pho I had ever had. No flavor. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The soursop smoothie was pretty tasty. I thought I was stumbling into a hidden gem. But as I continued to see small groups of college kids roll in after I ordered I knew this place wasn't going to meet my expectations. You can serve college kids anything and they're happy lol Prices were reasonable, the portion was a nice size but the flavor just wasn't there. Now I have to buy dinner elsewhere because honestly I'm not forcing myself to eat it.

Nice full bowl!

I gave this 5 stars 11 years ago but have since had a lot more Pho. This is a very thin traditional clear stock. Good flavor. Has a fair amount of salt or msg in it. Not a lot of meat in my #12. Large was $16.50 and the coffee was $5.75. So, kind of a pricey lunch, but it is fast, reliable, friendly and the noodles are perfect. These days a tend to like a more full bodied stock. Best I have found is Nam Pho over in Annapolis. It's really good. She even makes her own chili sauce (sriracha) from scratch.

Large #1 pho

Overall, Pho VN One really hit the spot for my pho craving. For about 15 bucks, you can receive a HUGE bowl of pho with comes with all of the fixings. There is an option for a smaller bowl for about $14 bucks. I also ordered the fried spring rolls, which were about $4 for two. If you are not super hungry, I would recommend skipping the appetizers because you will receive a huge portion of pho. The ambiance of the restaurant is very modest because you might see a few broken tables with yellow tape blocking it off. However, I think that's kind of par for the course for many Vietnamese restaurants that I have visited in the area. The restaurant is great for larger parties. During my visit, I saw a couple of groups with 6+ people. I thought the service was pretty good because the waiter/owner checked on me a couple of times during my meal. Also, the food will come out fast. For instance, my pho came out before my spring rolls. ;) I was a little annoyed that it took a while to receive my bill. However, I think that was on me because I did not realize that you are supposed to get your bill and pay at the register. Although the food was great, I do not think that I will go too far out of my way (e.g., driving more than 20 minutes) to dine here. However, if I have a pho craving while in the Beltsville area, I'll definitely will return.

Well done round and tendon
Leizle A.

If I am being honest for a large bowl, it's very little meat and noodles here and I even bought extra meatballs. I tried to order extra tendon but they said they only have enough for pho and not for a side. Doesn't make sense to me if you're going to charge extra and then say you can't do it. Meatballs were just okay. The broth was just okay. I wanted to ask for extra of the bean sprouts etc, but honestly wasn't enough food to take any home. Usually if I place a large order at other pho restaurants I have plenty left to take home. For the price I do not think it's the best value, but it's just okay. I did enjoy my Vietnamese iced coffee. The service was fine.

Thai tea, Pho #1
Brandon K.

Today I mistakenly tipped with a much larger bill I didn't see and the hostess was kind enough to double-check / let me know without hesitating. I am so grateful for the honesty (and did tip extra after). As I mentioned in a previous review, the pho was flavorful and hit the right spot - would recommend!

Oh, this is pho real my regular pho spot, no joke…read more I didn't review this spot for so long but I can't keep this to myself anymore since they are my no.1 since I moved to MD in 2021. I have since then had sooo many different pho places, even the ones people highly recommended here in Wheaton... Nope. This spot is better. I come here usually on a cold weekday, or whatever reason I just need my pho fix. To me, this spot is the standard of a good pho broth, the perfect noodles, and just simply the perfect ambient/ vibe for pho. I am writing this in the summer but looking at the photos again make me wanna go have my pho again! It's so good. I am not sure if I need to convince you with this review at all, just look at them photos! Doesn't make you want pho? Well, at least I do. And even if you don't go there... I will. So no worries lol. I LOVE YOU PHO REAL ;-) Please stay in business forever. I will be there (soon)!

Pro: moderate size parking lot, friendly staff, good food…read more Con: price. Ever since pho nam in Gaithersburg went down hill in quality, I've been on the search for a new pho restaurant. After looking online I found pho real with many positives reviews on yelp and google. Upon enter I was seated quickly for lunch time on a Wednesday. Interior wise a bit outed but run by a local family. I decided to order the large pho Tai. Food came out quick and I always tell people that you can tell if the pho is authentic by the taste of the broth. The broth was rich and flavorful with decent portion size. They didn't skimp on the garnishment, the bean sprout portion was big. All in all, had a good meal here and would recommend anyone to come and try this place.

You really can't go wrong with the pork vermercelli which comes with a yummy salad mix. Tender pieces of seasoned slices of pork. I also tried an order of their fries which, seriously were the best of the best. Light and parsley seasoned with a texture that is divine. I live up the street and no excuse for me not coming in weekly. I've tried all of the pizza joints and other restaurants in town and this place is the freshest and healthiest of the lot. The new Mom owner is ever present and very hands on. They will be here for a longggggggg time!

This place offers Vietnamese cuisine, with a menu that goes a bit beyond the standards and has some decent vegan options, which is essential given that this is a notoriously hippie neighborhood. I found many people talking about having or not having reservations, but I managed to get in early. They had a slight happy hour discount on rolls, and Vietnamese rolls are invariably great, for reasons that include taro root, but here the roll was really a platter with multiple vegetables; since they came out freshly fried, I actually did a bit of a lettuce wrap technique to be able to break apart and eat them. Ordering a tofu vermicelli bowl got me a good but not great rendition; the cucumbers are not to my taste and the sauce they had to drizzle over it, while fish-free, was a bit sweet and not to my taste either. The portion size wasn't huge for the price, but fortunately I wasn't starving. Having said that, they also had a small market section with imported goods and house sauces and pickled vegetables that looked nice, and the fresh herbal flavors I received certainly made a strong case for me to come back and try something different.

My son and I are always on the hunt for some good pho. Lulu's Gourmet didn't disappoint but it also…read moredidn't really impress. The place was clean and the atmosphere was inviting. But I feel like the broth was more bland than I'm use too. The customer service was great though. There weren't a lot of people there but the young lady made sure we had everything we needed and refilled our water before it was empty.

"Feeling more festive?" John Stewart, the Green Lantern, and the first Black superhero to appear in…read moreDC comics, asks Shayera Hol, the second Hawkgirl and yet another star of the Justice League Animated Series. "I don't know. I still don't get this obsession with the holidays," Hol responds. Moments later, hoping to lift her spirits and perhaps bring them together closer romantically, Stewart volunteers to celebrate in the same way that brings Hol joy, not knowing that for her the perfect night out involves a bar fight on the third moon of Galtos instigated by none other than Hol herself. Unlike Stewart and Hol, my wife's and my expectations going to Lulu's Gourmet on 13600 Baltimore Ave. in Laurel, Maryland were the same. And those expectations were high, with both of us being fans of pho and both of us having been frequent patrons of the Pho Saigon 54 restaurant that previously occupied Lulu's Gourmet's location. Lulu's servings for the pho, even for takeout orders, are gargantuan, the same size as the barrage of snowballs Stewart playfully launches at Hol before he realizes that she is not enjoying Earth's Christmas holiday season as much as he does. While a tad salty, Lulu's pho tastes great so long as one orders extra noodles to dilute the saltiness. Upon both visits, my wife was disappointed to learn that Lulu's Gourmet did not have any of the Hong Kong Waffles available to purchase that they prominently advertise. On our second visit, she was even more disappointed to not get the strawberry banana cream trang mieng that I attempted to order. I perhaps made a mistake in not getting a receipt to know if we were charged for the dessert and another mistake in showing the manager what we wanted to order on my phone rather than reading our takeout order out loud. Being an optimist like Stewart, I would give Lulu's Gourmet 3.5 stars if that were possible; but, for the purpose of current records, it will have to be a 3.
