Came to try the ox-tail cheesesteak bahn mi. It comes with a little consomé cup. This is a filling sandwich. It is a splurge , but we wanted to see if it lived up to its social media hype and it does. You could share the sandwich with the bestie and leave room for other foodie samplings. It has an order kiosk and I'd use that instead of waiting for the person behind the counter. The more they tend to cashiering , the longer it'll take to get your meal.
I got the oxtail pho and it did not disappoint! The flavor was really good and they give you a good amount of oxtail worth your money! Sometimes pho can be pretty bland but the flavor of the broth was well seasoned. The service was pretty quick and the ambiance was busy as always in Union Market.
My nine-year-old daughter often craves pho from this stand inside Union Market. Compared to other stands inside, this one sometimes has a wait due to the one self-service iPad to order, but it's worth the wait. The steak pho is delicious. The noodles are perfect, the broth flavorful, and the meat cooked perfectly. It comes with a few sauces and a lime wedge on the side.
Even though it was pretty warm and humid today, I was still craving something warm and soupy, and pho was the perfect option. We ordered at the kiosk and got our pho within 5-10 minutes. PHO DAC BIET - 17.98 The bowl was pretty small for the price, but it came with a good amount of meat, which was pretty tender. Noodles were initially too hard, but softened over time swimming in the broth. The broth was kind of a hit or miss. I enjoyed how strong and rich it was, with lots of meaty flavor, but my mom didn't like the slight acidic after taste. Overall, still one of the better broths I've had in the area. It was pricy, not the most filling, but pretty tasty. That's actually above average for a Union Market food stall.
Had the luxury of trying pho wheels for the first after it was highly recommended by multiple people. I will definitely be coming back, food was amazing.
Ordered on a busy but cold Sunday afternoon, as a warm bowl of pho sounded good. Regarding the photo itself, I liked the taste and size of the meatballs as well as the $3 add-on I purchased for soft tendon. One thing I wasn't a fan of was regarding the service. Union market was really busy given that it was a weekend, and when I had ordered my pho, the lady helping me had said my order will be ready in five minutes. I completely understand that that's just a rough guess but when I saw the workers chit chatting with one another rather than fulfilling orders, it wasn't the greatest feeling from a customer standpoint. Once my order was fulfilled, I saw my name on my order and had tried to flag down one of the workers. Instead of handing it to me, they said something along the lines of "Oh we will call your order when it's ready," despite it being packaged up. All in all, hope the service improves in the future but the pho itself was good, which leads me to rate it more middle of the road.
Y'all I forgot how good the food is here. I got the chicken pho and even when it was steaming hot I finished the whole thing in record time. Lol I used to enjoy their food truck at festivals but when I came to Union market for a lunch meeting I wanted to try them again. I have been crazing it ever since so I will be back there this week. The broth, chicken pieces, the sprouts all were very fresh and flavorful even without the hoisin and hot sauce.
Been here before and had an ok experience with the food. Saw they had oxtail eggrolls and just had to try it. Four decent size eggrolls for a good price and 3 sauces to choose from. Eggrolls were crunchy, flaky on the outside and filled with tender melt in your mouth oxtail and herbaceous veggies on the inside. Definitely redeemed themselves from last visit. Glad I gave it another go
Worst vietnamese coffee ever! It's pre made but I've had good pre made coffee before. I don't think they use condensed milk and it has a weird flavor. Also saw the guy put in milk?! Fake authentic spot. Wouldn't recommend unless you are into that kind of thing.
Vibe: N/A - within Union Market Service: 6/10 Value: 4/10 - very overpriced - there's much cheaper pho available that's on par or better than this! Oxtail cheesesteak banh mi: 8/10 - really enjoyed this! The bread could use some improvement - banh mi bread is typically more firm. Eye of round pho: 8/10 - delicious, but nothing mind blowing Overall: 6.5/10 (3.25/5) [To clarify our review system: 10 = we'll never have anything else as good as this in our lives (we use 10 very sparingly!) 9 = extraordinary 8 = great 7 = above average 6 = average Anything below 6 is being critical]
This is one of my favorite go to Pho spots. They ALWAYS hit! The flavor in the broth is so amazingly rich but light at the same time. The staff is usually super nice and informative if you have any questions or concerns about ingredients or allergies regarding the menu! They always have an abundance of utensils and condiments easily available and accessible. It's located in the middle of the market across from Lucky Buns so it's no seating for them specifically like some of the other spaces but there is extra seating in the market for everyone, no matter where you've gotten food from. Definitely going back and kind of becoming a regular! 10/10 already recommended to everyone I know!
They have a new larger location inside the food hall! This must mean they're doing well and will stay a while which I'm happy about because they have now been offering one of my favorite dishes that I crave. The Bo-khirria roti tacos w/ broth are unlike anything I've had! The flaky raised crust they use to make the taco shell is the palette grabber, perfectly complemented by the beef and the broth. I only recently became the fan of Birria tacos and love them at a little place on U st. This is a fun elevation although I could eat them back to back! Ordering is smooth, about a 15 minute wait. I do recommend a different carrying container for the broth for carryout. If it tips over in the car you're done for, it's not completely sealed. So I would be afraid to order it from DoorDash or anything.
Was really happy to see PhoWheels at Union Market as I've always been a fan since their first food truck. However, upon sitting down, I was so disappointed. I ordered the oxtail pho to-go. It was packaged fairly quick and I was on my way. When I sat down to eat, I immediately noticed the usual fixings were nowhere to be found. No bean sprouts, hot sauce, onions, Thai basil, scallions -- just noodles and a few jalapeño slices. The broth was fine, but I expected it to be more flavorful considering I ordered oxtail pho. The oxtail itself was tender enough -- a bit fatty. I was underwhelmed, and will not visit this location again.
Right in the middle of the bustling Union Market, I decided to try PhoWheels, and I'm so glad I did. I went with the oxtail pho and was not disappointed at all. Okay...this just made sense. Like why did I not think of this combo sooner?? The oxtail was tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with that rich, comforting broth and noodles I love. Every bite hit. Portion size was good, flavors were a hit, and overall it was giving 5 stars across the board. If you're walking through Union Market and need something that's actually going to satisfy you, this is it. read more
Food was everything I thought it would be. I got the pork belly banh mi added chicken pate, roti tacos one chicken thigh and one pork belly. They don't skimp on the protein. Honestly half of a banh mi is filling. I can't wait to try the oxtail cheesesteak next, definitely will be returning. read more

We were in town to celebrate my best friend's birthday, and she highly recommended giving this place a try. The OG Roti Onion Tofu Tacos were delicious! The tofu was flavorful and had a good texture. The roti was a good vessel. It was soft but able to hold all the filling. Drizzled on top, the sriracha lime mayo added spice and sweetness. I enjoyed it! My husband had OG Roti Pork Belly Tacos, which he also enjoyed. He had leftovers and said they tasted just as good reheated. Please get their Pandan Toast! It is soaked in butter and their pandan syrup. The crust on the outside was probably crunchy, but after sopping up all the syrup, it had a good chew. The inside had a soft, pleasant cake texture. The man who rang us up also packed our order, and he was awesome! They had a steady flow of customers, and I was able to get my order in under 10 minutes. Their station was clean and organized. I would recommend this spot; they also have two other locations read more

The oxtail eggrolls are a must! I walked by during my final visit to Union Market and had to try them. They are well seasoned, crispy, and full of flavor. The cheese is not overwhelming and comes with two dipping sauces. The services are fast and food took no time. Union Market is a food hall, so expect it to be busy and loud. read more

It's been a minute since I ate from Phowheels, the last time was at their food truck. Their pho is good but I didn't get any this time. I was attracted to their seats haha, a rare commodity in Union Market, and so I ended up ordering their oxtail cheesesteak sandwich and it was as rich as it sounds. Very tasty but I couldn't finish it in one sitting. The small cup of broth serves with it helps and did that broth taste so good. read more
This place was decent. I ordered the oxtail pho and the birria egg rolls. The egg rolls were the bomb. They came with a side of consommé and it was very flavorful. My pho and oxtails didn't really taste like much but you did get a pretty hefty serving of oxtails on the side. read more

Asian fusion spot inside Union Market with a nice range of options on the menu for a reasonable price. Also no line and a very short wait which is a definite plus here! The chicken thigh roti tacos were amazing - I just wish they'd mix up the pickled carrots and radish more because some bites were just layered pickled veg. I also ordered the Thai tea which wasn't bad but didn't really have that authentic Thai tea flavor. I'd definitely get the roti tacos again and try some of the other options but pass on the Thai tea, especially at $6.50/cup! read more

I got the oxtail egg rolls which came with 4 for about $25. They were decent, I wish they came with some kind of broth dip or consume like with birria tacos so overall rating is an 8/10 The pork belly roti tacos were really good and those came with 2 for about $20-25. They were really big and filled with a lot of meat so they're a great bang for your buck, the pork belly was very tender and well flavored. I wish they sold things in smaller quantities so I could try a few different things read more

Pho Wheels coming to Union Market is a good addition. I didn't know what I was in the mood for but a little Pho never hurt anybody. Even if it's 90 degrees outside. I ordered the steak pho. It was prepared quickly. Less than 5 mins. It was fresh and flavorful with plenty of noodles and broth. I added a few jalapeños for a little extra spice but it tasted good without. It just depends on your spice tolerance. read more

I saw a tiktok video on the stand at Union Market and got the Oxtail cheesesteak. It's pretty amazing. It reminds me of duck confit bun I had before from farmer's market stand at Mt Pleasant. They are both amazing unique sandwiches. read more
