I made a new review to remove a star. The only reason there are 2 and not one is there is 1-no credible local Vietnamese food and 2- I will have to try the pho again since this is based on what I saw on other tables and no 19 bun cha gio. Had been really tasty for Salem. Had been almost as good as favorite in Portland but now seems to have decreased the veggies, stopped pickling the daikon and carrot, decreased the green herbs to almost zilch, no peanuts on top and seriously watered down fish sauce. There were flies buzzing around and someone was smoking out back with the smoke blowing in the door. One good thing: They fixed the loud boba blender with a plastic box like at Starbucks. read more

This restaurant is located on Lancaster drive, so it's easy to find. We just went for the bubble tea, and it was quality. Multiple flavors, a lot of them unique like bubble gum and egg something. They have both tapioca balls and jellies! The only downside was the blend consistency felt a little too watered down instead of blended. We will be back to try the beef pho, which is apparently great! read more

I've only ordered spring rolls, calamari, and pho noodle soup. All were appetizing and good. I like this place and will definitely make this a weekly visit. They also have daily specials which is displayed in the menu. Staff are attentive and will recommend you something if you can't seem to choose what you want. read more

Great Pho and super quick service! I ordered a to go order and was told 15 minutes, I got there in about 10 and it was already ready! And this was all within about a half hour of them closing. The larger portion was less than a dollar more, so I ordered it.. And holy cow! It was a huge portion that came with basil leaves, jalepeno, bean sprouts, a couple cups of sauces, and silverware! The meat was so tender and the perfect done-ness! And the huge portion was great for dinner, my husbands midnight snack, and my lunch the next day! It was superb and the customer service was honestly awesome! read more

I really enjoyed eating at Super Pho! There was lots of parking when we got there and the restaurant has a great atmosphere. My boyfriend and I ordered a #9 which has round steak, brisket, and tendon. A small was a good size for me and it was $7. My boyfriend ordered a large but there's also a super size. We also ordered an appetizer of calamari that came with sauce that you would use for spring rolls. All of this was yummy and satisfied our cravings for pho. We also decided to order a bubble drink while we were there. Excellent and well blended! It seemed as though that's what everyone went there for. I'll definitely be coming back again read more

Super Pho - Small #,9 & large #9 w/ order of calamari - Vietnamese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

My favorite restaurant in Salem. We eat here once a week or so and have zero complaints about the service or quality of food. Best Pho in town, by far! The only complaint is have is that the tables are not wiped down very well... This is a regular problem. But I still super love the food. read more

They seated us then proceeded to tell us they were out of Pho. How does a Pho restaurant run out of Pho..?? And why are they still open and seating guests if they don't have Pho..?? read more

pretty sure my dad and i got food poisoning here ate on thursady ordered 2 sandwiches. pho seemed bland. but both of us got severly sick. read more

The food is pretty good... I don't have as much familiarity with Pho itself so I'm not sure if it's better than most. This review is predominantly about customer service. So I went inabout a month ago for lunch and there were two younger guys working. I'd say they were 18-21 and they both had curly hair and butterfly necklaces on. I wish I could make a destination between the two, because one of them was pleasant. However, the other man was so rude! No customer service at all, was talking at us and not to us. Even had the audacity to take a menu out of my hand physically and tell me it belonged on a certain table. He wasn't just rude to us though, he was rude to everyone!!!! I'm not sure if this type of person should be greeting customers, maybe he can just come in here and there to feed the fish. What a jerk! read more

Are you hungry? Do you want something hot and delicious to satisfy that hunger? Put down that Snickers and step away from the microwave, Tina! Come over and sit down for the best Vietnamese food in Salem. Don't believe me? Think I'm crazy? The only thing crazy would be to not grab that giant bowl of noodles and broth and slurp your way to deep satisfaction! So what are you waiting for? Come in, sit down, and shut the phock up! It's time to eat! TL;DR: Tasty as hell! read more

We have been coming here for years, this Sunday was the worst experience we have ever had as far as customer service. The 3 servers working the front of the house were not attentive at all. We waited about 20 minutes for a table, when a table did become available it took about fifteen minutes for someone to clear it. There was no since of urgency to seat customers that had been waiting. Customers were approaching counter to get things they needed, no customer service there. When getting ready to leave no containers available on rack to take home pho. Asked for a container and one of the servers said there isn't any. Asked again for a container again it become a conversation between all the servers. Sir went in the back and asked for containers. When asked what our servers name was, would not say. There needs to be some customer service skills training. Hello my name is such and such, what can I get for you? Really not that hard, you think? read more

The food is good but the server looked stressed I think she was all alone for dinnertime felt bad for her and she looked super exhausted! I won't return because this not the first time I have seen this particular server by herself! God I hope she gets a raise! It's the girl with blonde hair that everytime I see her she is alone and looks stressed running by herself back and forth and the other day isn't the first time . I don't want to spend my money at a place that understaffs and workers look exhausted and stressed ! read more

The people there have attitude even when they mess up, found a gray piece of something in my food and asked for more water and they NEVER brought me my food asked if I wanted it to go and when i went to go pay my food hadnt even been made and there was a lady u front of me as well and they messed up her order and made her wait and the cashier called her a bitch!!! I used to like to come here but Hell Nah not no more!!!! Horrible Expierence!! read more

First off I'd like to say beware of the bad reviews, you might do yourself a favor and check out the reviewer to see how they rate most places they go to before believing what they say because some people just like to grumble. Now that that is out of the way I have to say this place is great. They have just celebrated 10 years in business and recently remodeled. The remodel is very nice. Everytime I go here I'm welcomed warmly by the staff and have even had them know what I'm calling to order (A5-pork salad roll) because the recognize my number on the caller ID. I really enjoy the bun and the pho as well. They have daily specials that save you money as long as you dine in, its probably why they get so busy. Be prepared from time to time for a little wait just because this place is popular. I like going right before the dinner rush myself. I have always had good experiences here and highly reccomend it! read more

Super Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Only pho in town unfortunately which must be what keeps them going. The kitchen doesn't appear clean, the bathrooms are filthy and they say if the bathrooms are gross the kitchen is worse. Honestly looks like a health code violation. They don't understand allergies and cannot accommodate changes to what comes in the pho etc for substitutions or removal. I would rather drive further than trust the cleanliness, but most options are closed sooner than here so in a pinch we tried it. Sad results. read more

Yum. Yum yum yum. Yum. Fresh. Delicious. Friendly. I can't say enough about it. It was pretty busy too. People like it. Variety! Big menu that was reasonably priced. read more

There are six Pho restaurants in Salem. This is the best of the six. The broth makes the dish sing. The beef Pho ranks a 5, but service is slow. For $8 you get more Pho than you can eat, for another $2 you get twice as much. read more

Super Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

I used to really love going to Super Pho. Their food is quite fresh and flavorful. However, after two instances where I was made to wait when other's were seated before me, I will not be back. When people arrive at least 6-8 minutes after me, but are helped quickly and I was left standing, that isn't right. read more

My fiancee found this place and wow it did not disappoint. Don't let the exterior fool you this place is on their game! The pho is amazing and they have so many other Vietnamese options. We had the pork rolls, crispy egg rolls, grilled chicken, and beef (marinated beef is amazing) in addition to the pho. Everything is great quality, I have been here a few times now and it is consistently delightful. read more

We will never eat here again, and the service attitude is poor when we usually eat there. Every time I come here for takeout, it says that it's sold out, which means the kitchen is closed. Every time is a different excuse. 8:15 stop ordering . I was in the front but refused to place an order , they told me the kitchen is closed but customers they know can place orders as normal. And it was 8 o'clock. One hour before closing. Those who do not know how to respect customers from other countries should be closed and go back to your country to open read more

Super Pho has me leaving sick to my stomach. This restaurant is ran by a bunch of high schoolers. None of them know the concept of customer service. While grabbing Chopsticks out of the utensil holders I noticed that they were not cleaned properly. Chop sticks had residual food from previous customers. The holders had water in the bottom of them from not drying utensils. I went to pour their toppings on my food and noticed a good sized bug resting in the bottom of the container. I presented it to the waitress and she looked at me, said nothing, and smiled. I guess that was a joke to this waitress and she took it to the back without a word said. We were never checked on. We had to ask for waters and to have our order taken. Not happy with anything this place has to offer. I won't be returning and I wouldn't recommend it neither. read more

I have no idea what happened with this place. It seems that the hiring of the new wait staff just killed this restaurant. Previously been there and took 5 times to ask for tea and get it, then water will rarely come. Today, went there and asked how long the wait was for a booth and was given the answer of "I don't know" Food is what it is, but I don't plan on going back. Ever. read more

Pho-king awesome is right. The broth is the perfect shade of lightness, full of flavor and not over powering. The little plate of thai basil, beans, jalapeño and lime are perfectly fresh looking everytime. The place has had a little remodel this year (2016) and it looks great. Service has improved. They have daily specials too, be sure to check those out. I also highly recommend the grilled pork and shrimp Com plate! read more

The service is wonderful I don't know what others mean, It is a family owned reasteraunt and the pho, chow-mein, and egg rolls are all wonderful here. Every time I have food here it leaves me wanting more. read more

I'm so happy Salem has a really good vietnamese place like this. I live in orange county not far from Little Saigon, so I am spoiled to have the best Vietnamese food in america in my back yard. But this little place is Salem is really close. The Pho is fantastic, the spring rolls and egg rolls are top notch, the service is fast, it's clean, and the prices are very reasonable. They took my favorite dish off the menu (dried egg noodles in the shape of a bird's nest filled with meat and veggies) but hopefully I can pester them enough to bring it back. Even still, the rest of the menu is great. If you love Vietnamese food, or always wanted to try it, check this place out. read more

Finally a decent Pho restaurant in Salem. I live in Portland but travel to Central OR often and am always looking for a quick bite enroute. Other than excellent Mexican fare, it's pretty slim for ethnic foods. I got the Dac Biet Pho on a Sunday and was damn impressed. It was comparable or better than what you would get on 82nd street. Quality meats, including the meat balls, which usually is rubbery in most places. Broth was fragrant and flavorful. Really pleasantly surprised that this restaurant can survive without having to compromise authenticity for variety, but I'm glad that it's sticking to tradition. Fairly crowded on a weekend night, but placed my order and received food in less than 10 mins. Will be back on my next trip. read more

Decided to try this place based on yelp reviews. I meant to post a review on this place a while ago but I procrastinated. Since the first time we went there, we've been there about another 4 times. We've tried a couple of things there, but my favorite is either the grilled pork or the short ribs. I'm not a fan of Pho in general so I can't comment on that but everything that we've had there is extremely good. The prices are super reasonable, the service is friendly and it is very clean inside. The parking can be a little hard to get to right now because of the construction on the street, but if you use the side streets to access it instead of Lancaster Drive, makes life tons easier. Believe me, the food is worth the hassle! I've just found my go-to Vietnamese restaurant in town. Just thinking about it, I think I want to go there tonight! read more

I love this place! I was told about this place by some law enforcement friends of mine and they highly recommended it. Before going here, the only Vietnamese restaurant I had been too was in Oakland CA years ago, and I had been craving it for a long time. I finally found a place where I can have it once again! The exterior looks like an old donut shop and masks the amazing flavorful food that is hidden inside. I had the Vermicelli and BBQ pork skewers and that is my regular favorite. Very generous serving sizes and amazing flavors in every bite! The Boba Tea is amazing as well and makes for a great dessert to sip on as you drive away with a full belly! I recommend the Taro flavored Boba Tea. read more

I ordered pho tai and definitely with the first sip, I knew there was something wrong with the broth. The meat itself was nothing notable and also had that weird taste that I've never tasted before. I'm Vietnamese and I have had countless bowls of pho from so many restaurants... This is by far the worst I've ever had in Oregon and California. Needless to say, about an hr after I left the store, I had massive stomach cramps, threw up and went to the restroom twice. Please avoid this place. I would call them to complain but there is no benefit to that. read more

Service was friendly. Ordered small pho with brisket and meatballs. The brisket was very tender. The pho broth was okay. read more

Great option for Salem, it was delicious and aromatic.....hot when delivered which is big. Might go in physically as we don't have any complaints. Portions were appropriate and looking to explore other options on their menu. read more

Super Pho is the bomb. I get the pho with rare round steak and well done flank steak. This is the best option for me because I find the meatballs something akin to bologna balls, which is cool, just not for me. The beef bone broth is fantastic, it is flavored with, cinnamon, cardamom, fennel, and some magic. I say magic because my vegetarian (non-militant vegetarian) wife will even take some sips without making that 'why did you make me try this' face, rather it is a smile and a 'Wow that is so good!' The fresh bean sprouts, basil, and jalapeno that accompany the pho, which you may add at your leisure, make me happy. My wife had the crispy lemongrass tofu and raved about it for two days. She adds lots of the plum sauce that they set on the table. I agree with Chuck B. and my two year old that the fish tanks are awesome! read more

Disclaimer: I am not Vietnamese nor a Pho expert (in fact, I'm kinda new to it) I came here on business and decided Pho sounded good for dinner, after reading the reviews, I decided on Super Pho. I ordered the grilled chicken egg rolls - they were good but mainly noodle and a tiny bit of chicken. The Pho was delicious and had plenty noodles. My only complaint about the Pho was that the beef round and flank was suuuper fatty and a lot of it wasn't edible. On another note, I got seated in front of the fish tank. At first I thought it was cool at least I had something to look at as I dined alone. After a while I noticed the fishes picking at something on the top. To my disgust, it was another dead fish. I tried not to look at it anymore and politely mentioned to the waiter that I think one of the fish had died he said "ohh..yeah...i don't know how that happened" and walked away. I thought it was a little rude he didn't ask if I wanted to move, but I wasn't going to make a big stink about it. It was really weird and seemed like there were other dying fish flapping on their sides below and all the others kept eating at it. Anyway, enough of that but it blew me away and really unsettled my stomach. The price was good, you pay for what you get, but I thought the place could have used a little cleaning. read more

FANTASTIC!!! I can't say enough good things about this place. Hands down, best Vietnamese in Salem. I just recently discovered it and have been back many many times. Staff are friendly and the food is awesome. The environment isn't the greatest but it's not bad. I like some of that hole-in-the-wall feel in some restaurants. It feels as though these people are not money grubbers, they just make good food. :) read more

Super Pho - Super Pho Dining Area - Vietnamese Near Me - Salem, Oregon

Thanks to Yelp I found this little place after driving solo from Walla Walla WA via Portland after dropping my daughter off at college. I got to Salem, checked into Best Western Mill Creek and was starving and needing comfort food, which for me is soup, especially Asian noodle soups. I didn't have the Pho, but instead opted for the combination seafood soup with rice noodles, a staple for me in Chinese and Vietnamese places. It was very good. Thin noodles. Enough protein, especially for the price, fresh juicy limes, Thai basil, jalapenos and crisp, clean plump sprouts on the side. Warm tasty broth. What more could you want? Well, I also had the fresh spring rolls because I was hungry. They were equally good. And filling. Topped it off with a beer and I was as good as new. The place was clean and the people were friendly too. Good service, good healthy food and a cold beer, just what this weary traveler needed. It was a bit hard to find, not well signed, tucked away off the main road surrounded by little Mexican places. read more

I have the hardest time giving a bad review to a place with great friendly service. I really enjoy it when someone is authentic and goes out of their way to make my experience pleasant, but if the food doesn't work for me... well, I know where my priorities are when I am going out to eat. I visited at 11:30 on a Sunday morning, and the woman at the counter seemed surprised that I was there. It took me a minute to get her to understand I wanted to eat. After I looked at the menu, I ordered my standard small bowl of round steak pho, and decided to go with a Vietnamese coffee as well. The woman seemed surprised that I was ordering Pho (even though the place is called Super Pho Restaurant, and I was sitting directly beneath their neon Pho sign) for reasons I don't understand. Because it was just before noon on a Sunday? Have I so become accustomed to Portland living that I've forgotten Salem's rules of now eating lunch on Sunday? The pho arrived quickly, and smelled pretty good, but it didn't take me long to notice that the meat was fatty and the curly rounded ends that tend me mean they've just run out of steak. I suppose they might not have had a chance to stock back up, and I just got whatever was left. Their selection of condiments wasn't quite what I was accustomed to... they didn't have the chili paste that I've seen at every pho place I've ever eaten, although they did have a new sort of chipotle smelling paste that was pretty spicy and worked as a substitute. The pho itself was meh. The broth wasn't particularly rich or hearty, almost like a low-salt kind of broth. Maybe they don't use MSG or something, maybe it's just a different style of pho. I just didn't care for it, especially with the fatty and tough cuts of meat. The espresso with condensed milk was delicious. Very delicious. I really enjoyed it despite the fact that I had asked for it hot, and it was served on ice. It was the highlight of the food. The atmosphere of the business was pretty nice, very clean and obviously well cared for. As mentioned, the lady working there was super friendly and welcoming. I'm not too worried when something like the coffee mix-up happens, it's a standard landmine when dealing with new places and foreign food. But if a business sells pho, they probably ought to have a staple pho dish available when they open their doors. It's not like I was there at eight in the morning... I suppose I might give this place another try, since they are so close to my parent's house and I really did like the lady working there... but I am not very optimistic. I couldn't finish my pho and really didn't have any enthusiasm for it. Which is a shame. Salem needs a good pho spot. read more

Highly recommend Super Pho! We have eaten there many times & are never disappointed!! The pho is delicious for sure & so are #1, #20 & #23!

No pho for me and my friend as we had what appeared to be a meat sampler dish. His was plated while mine was in a bowl. There are five different meats offered and plentiful was the overall portion. On top of that I got some sort of spring roll that was okay too. In the bowl a lower layer of rice is covered up by salad veggies and you will easily find the meat there. The only down note is that cutting up the pork chop in a bowl is not as easy as doing it on a plate! Spice levels are more subtle than overwhelming or hot although I really did enjoy the rich taste of the thin sliced beef. That stuff is so good tasting it should be illegal! Plenty of condiments are on the table for those who wish to play with them. Service was friendly. The menu is loaded with pictures so that makes it easier to know what kind of dish Super Pho is offering. With our meals priced at $9.50 I would say we got our money's worth for portion and taste. Parking in the lot is plentiful too. Why eat the same old boring food that litters Lancaster when there's a super place like Super Pho to try? read more
