The bathroom could use some repair the side of the walls could stand to be cleaned in the dining area. The service was fast and the pho was good! Over $30 for two people. read more

Food - not good. We had orange chicken and general tso chicken. They call it "fried". Guess it might be fried with no breading. Have had better orange chicken from a fast food place. Will not be back. Service was fine. Ambiance fine as well. read more

Simply Pho is such a welcome addition to Belterra Village, let's just get that out in the open. I'm so elated that we didn't get our millionth fast food establishment, and Vietnamese food is a wonderfully eclectic choice for this side of Austin. There's a Vietnamese spot in the Y that literally didn't know what vermicelli was years ago, and I've always just driven 40 minutes for proper Vietnamese food if that's what I wanted (in order to avoid the lesser establishments). But yeah, when I am in the mood for Vietnamese food these days I just drive 15 minutes away instead to Simply Pho. Let me give you a tip about Vietnamese food from a simple white boy perspective: all items should be numbered A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, etc. Additionally, that A1 better say "Pork and Egg Roll Vermicelli". Simply Pho checks both of these boxes. There's absolutely nothing to complain about with anything. The service, atmosphere, and lunch specials are all very appreciated in 78737. (See you soon!) read more

First time trying this place. I first have to say I'm jaded by authentic Vietnamese cuisine and this, though owners are Vietnamese and their recipes the cooks are not. Yes it does make a difference. The Thai tea was watered down and had no flavor, bland. The Vietnamese egg rolls were ok, not great and not as crispy as traditional rice paper egg rolls. You get 2 thinly rolled egg rolls as appetizer with a large lettuce leaf, missing the cilantro. The pork though it taste good it lacks the true spices that's it's usually grilled with. It came with lettuce carrots cucumber and bean sprouts. The fish sauce was a little too vinegar but add hot sauce it was better. I can't review the general Tao dish because I didn't try it. My husband however liked it and took home his leftovers. I would try it again when in the area but not go out of my way as I do to go to San Marcos for pho. Staff was pleasant enough but very rushed. We like the casual atmosphere with tv playing sports over the nice bar. Look like a full bar menu. Prices are higher than you'd expect to pay but you are in Belterra. read more

My husband and I had pho and fried rice. It was good but gluten free options are very limited!

Always love this place near Belterra in Dripping Springs...their brisket/ribeye combination pho is simply amazing!

Thank you to Simply Pho for bringing their service in their Dripping Springs location up to the standards that they have in their other locations! Great food always!!!!! read more

This was a first-time takeout order (we live 10 minutes away), and perhaps they were not so busy and the order sat too long. Either way the food was largely lukewarm, soggy where it should have been crisp (egg rolls and sweet and sour chicken - I know, I know), and dry where it should have been tender and moist. And yet the ribeye pho broth was very hot - like it was prepped last/later than the rest of the food? The Chicken Vermicelli had decent flavor, if a little bland, but was cold. Also, please consider serving sauce on the side for takeout orders sweet and sour chicken. For the price, we will find an alternative. read more

Best Pho with rib eye! My husband's curry was excellent as well. Nice folks, great service, delicious Vietnamese food!!!

Disappointing visit to Simply Pho in Belterra. We'd been there one e before and been,pleased enough for an encore visit. They failed to make the mark. First, we ordered spring rolls for an appetizer. They were slow to come out. So slow that our entrees arrived before we'd eaten half out spring rolls. So we were faced with finishing the spring rolls while trying to get to the main dish before it got cold. While the spring rolls were excellent, the entree were very mediocre. I had the Dancing Seafood, a medley of squid, fake crab and shrimp with veggies. My friend had the Wok on Fire #1 flat noodles with chicken. Both were unremarkable. My seafood combo was over sauced, which smothered the seafood. The same can be said for the Wok on Fire dish. The sauces were more similar than different - a cloying thick sweet overlay that masked the flavor of the underlying dish. Service was credible, except for the overlap of appetizer over entree. Ambience was noisy and busy. Our server waited on us as attentively as possible in a very busy setting. Maybe the multiple pho offerings would have been more satisfying in a menu that is blended between Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese. Or maybe they need to focus. Are you Thai? Vietnam? Or what? read more

Best Bahn Mi outside the city. I crave those sandwiches. Staff is polity & friendly. Bright interior with lots of plants. Just a great place to hang out, sip a beer, and enjoy some good food. read more

We love simply pho! My daughter will devour a whole bowl by herself! Always great service and plenty of space! Their take out service is great too! read more

I'm so sad that the service here was this horrible. There were 6 workers and 7 parties dining in. I could see they were getting a lot of take out orders too but goodness. This was pretty bad. I came at 4pm on a Sunday, when one would expect great and attentive service.. I had 4 in my party. We ordered 2 appetizers, 2 order of spring rolls and 1 order of Thai chicken wings. These came out relatively slow. But we were long done with these and no one had taken our main order. After flagging down someone, we ordered 2 combination pho, 1 pork banh mi, and 1 salt and pepper squid entree. Nothing was written down. One of the 2 phos came out 10 minutes before anything else, then a shrimp dish (that no one ordered) the banh mi, and then another bowl of pho. The squid plate came out last, the vegetables were very well cut and presented by the portion and size of squid pieces were underwhelming. The pho was good but there were no herb/veggie plate to accompany it. After asking for some, a very sad plate came out that looked half eaten/unused by another person. I was very sadden by this experience bc I love Vietnamese food and this location is so close to us. I hope they are able to hire more help/train their current staff better... Our meals cost a total of $65. read more

Wonderful lunch! Our favorite place on the way to Fredericksburg! Great staff and always fast service!

I ordered a Bahn Mi sandwich and the bread was awful. And it wasn't authentic. Honestly, it's the worst Vietnamese food I've ever had. Sad!

My husband ordered take out tonight including the ribeye pho. He got home, opened the container and the beef was raw. Not just rare .... actually RAW. The bag of vegetable toppings did not look fresh either . read more

Simply Pho House - Ribeye pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Austin, Texas

On the way home from Fredericksburg. Chose pho over pizza, bbq, or fast food. Busy spot. Efficient service. Good food. Rib-eye pho, vegetarian pho, and pad Thai all got thumbs up. A little loud. Prices are ok. read more

Underwhelming. We go to the Marble Falls location all the time. Never fails! This location was in need of serious improvements. Pho arrived cold. 1 basil leaf on vegetable plate. No, not stem of basil but a singular leaf of basil. Wait staff very involved in discussing A&M game from across the restaurant versus actively working on serving the tables. Won't be back. Definitely will be seeing if my recall for the Marble Falls location has been off. read more

Update to my review: This restaurant has stepped up and repaired all of the things that affected our experience last time. Our server, Michael G was very attentive and the food came out very quickly and was as good as we remembered. We had the beef pho (p2) and chicken pho, and cream cheese wontons. With the experience improved, I would definitely recommend this restaurant once again. read more

Took my friend who was born and raised in Vietnam and he was surprised by the flavor of the pho broth and enjoys the pork vermicelli regularly. Can't go wrong with the food here, pho is perfect for the cold weather. Friendly service, ample portions and overal a good variety of pan-Asian flavors/dishes read more

Finally a place in Dripping Springs where I can enjoy a big hearty bowl of Pho! Sort of hidden from 290, this restaurant has some great in house appeal that you can't see from the highway. Interesting floating philodendron suspended from the ceiling in moss balls with dangling roots, a divided house with comfy dining seating on one side and a bar too with TVs in the other. The service was fantastic from our table server. Super friendly, very attentive even though she was running from table to table and even offered us tea to go! The front hostess was young and cold at greeting which is the only reason for the 4. Fortunately a different greeter came forward and went out of her way to get the booth seating cleaned up that my husband wanted to sit at. We also had a grilled pork Bahn Mi that was on fresh flaky bread and full of meat and veggies. Absolutely delicious! The iced tea is a jasmine tea which we had at least three servings of PLUS the to-go. There is such a variety of Asian cuisine even for the little kids that it will be hard not to go back just for the wonderful Pho. There is Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese so plenty of meals to come at this place. Sorry few pics this time. I was to busy enjoying my food. read more

I can only say positive things about our experience. The food was fresh tasty, and even though it was takeout, it was packaged and such a way that it wasn't mushy and it was still popping fresh! We will be back. read more

I really like the food here it is very well priced compared to other places in the area. Can't go wrong with the pho and the fried rice. Service is probably the only thing that knocks it down to four stars. Would also like a better beer selection. read more

North Hays County getting a McDonalds....meh. NHC getting a Simply Pho...OMG OMG OMG. I've been a fan of this restaurant for awhile. Have dined at Bee Cave for years and also Marble Falls because my BFF lives out there. They couldn't build this place fast enough for me! Girlfriend and I hadn't visited any of them together; we went a few weeks after the opening. Charcoal Pork Spring Rolls started our dining adventure. Very fresh ingredients paired with a peanut dipping sauce. Cream Cheese Wontons were next; perfect golden exterior with a gooey center. Pho has never been my thing; Bun on the other hand is a personal favorite. Always B2 at Simply Pho with Charcoal Pork and grilled Shrimp. Dump in the fish sauce, toss the ingredients, zig zag some sriracha across the top and dive in! Tom Kha soup with Shrimp is also a personal favorite. Girlfriend chose Combination Pad Thai and liked her first visit. Leftovers made it home too so I got a few bites. Could have been spicier for me; luckily they will adjust spice to taste if you ask. Also, hand sanitizer on every table. I may go broke and get fat dining here.... read more

We've ordered take out from here regularly since they opened. They often forget items, especially the rice. It's been tough for businesses so didn't bother me too much. We always order the black pepper beef and and the amount of beef has been shrinking. Today was laughable. They charge $17 for this dish which is now mostly peppers and onions. Ridiculous for what they charge. read more

Simply Pho House - Black Pepper Beef...where is the beef? - Vietnamese Near Me - Austin, Texas

Always good food and service. Great crab Rangoon and kung Pao beef. Decent prices with nice size portions.

One of my favorite places for Pho! Service is always great! It's not loud and is a good place to have dinner and good conversation.

Terrible service food quality. Multiple people standing around and only the two servers were doing anything. Although ours took forever to come to greet us and other mishaps, she was at least friendly. The manager just standing around and not attentive to the customers or staff needs. Chicken wings were terrible. Smelled bad, the oil was dirty and both the wings a wontons were very greasy. Disappointing. This place used to be good. read more

Literally the only decent asian food place out west. Great addition to the Belterra area. Gets busy during peak times but the food is consistent. Mix of vietnamese, thai, chinese food...so you can't go wrong. Great boba tea menu. Have been here a few times and also ordered takeout. Pad-se-ew - delish Vermicelli bowl - fresh Gwneral tsos- more on the saucy side....like drenched. read more

Well, the Vietnamese egg rolls were ok, but place has Nothing on ---------- You like that fish sauce ? ---- will blow your mind. Traditionally Vietnamese egg rolls come with lettuce, carrots & cilantro, or Thai basil. Use it to wrap around egg roll. I missed those things Seems they are just phoning it in read more

I love Pho. It's delicious broth, the choice of meats / protein for each bowl and the noodles are great!! I love getting a bag of toppings for me to make mine taste the way I want. My husband prefers extremely spicy and I don't, so we each have ours our own way! Simply Pho was my go to in Bee Caves but now I am lucky to get to go to Dripping Springs for it! I have had better from only one place and it is in Maryland, so this is the place for me whenever I want Pho - which is often. Oh and my husband cannot get anything here without an order of the salt and pepper wings. He absolutely loves them and gives them a 10/10. read more

Delicious food, great service, not much seating so try to beat the rush if you don't want to wait.

My young daughter and be friends were eating there and a server walked up to their table and stated-"you all smell like weed". It was actually the group next to my daughter at a different table. But point is, inappropriate for a server to say ANYTHING of this nature to anyone! read more

Authentic pho. Lots of other Delicious dishes. Courteous, efficient staff. We have eaten there many times and will continue to return.

Green tea (iced) is where it's at! Man that was good! Spicy edamame: The chili crisp on these is fire! Crispy eggrolls: Crunchy, perfect all the way through. Ribeye and brisket pho: a little fatty on the brisket, but I'm not complaining. Nice broth. Green curry: Will make you cry. It's that good. Better than mine, which I NEVER say. Bring tissues. It's worth it. Going again? YES! read more

Server was very attentive and nice! We got a couple of pho options, the pot stickers, cream cheese Rangoons, a bahn mi sandwich and an order of tofu pad Thai. Everything was really good! :) read more

I moved from GA where there was at least 10 pho restaurants within a 5 mile radius, so I was happy to know there was a pho place nearby instead of having to drive 25 mins elsewhere. I first tried this place for their drinks. I really enjoy the happy lychee drink. I've been in a lychee tea kick lately, and this absolutely satisfies that craving. I love that they even throw in a few canned lychee. Those things aren't cheap anymore! $3-4 a can. I recently tried their meatball pho for take out. I was really impressed with the flavor. I don't mean to judge the pho restaurant for its location, but I went in not having high expectations. It definitely exceeded them. The broth was very flavorful, and I really like that they pack some of the stuff in ziploc bags. It's much more clean and organized. In other pho restaurants, they'll just throw everything in there in one clump. Happy customer here! Can't wait to continue going back. read more

We have tried Simply Pho a few times over the last year and overall it's pretty decent. Lots of options on the menu, which is helpful when trying to find something everyone in our family likes. Definitely better Pho options in downtown Austin, but Simply Pho is a pretty decent option here in Drip. read more

What I recommend: Tom Kha soup- MUST try it Pho Basil fried rice- would like to note it is on the sweeter side Don't recommend: Egg roles- you only get two for 6 dollars.... Spring roles- again, only two for 6 dollars House special sandwich- personally didn't like the aftertaste, not a ton of meat nor did the meat have much flavor. I rate this place a 4/5 because I thought the food was good but I think it's overpriced, especially for basic appetizers. I can't look past paying 6 dollars for tiny egg roles. read more
