    The food is outstanding every time we come- sirloin steak is fantastic as is chicken pho and fried tofu. Owners are lovely people, we are lucky to have them in our neighborhood! Visit every week.

    Bahn Mi: one with chicken (bottom) and one with sirloin (top). Passionfruit jasmine tea (bottom) and Vietnamese iced coffee (top).

    Service and food was delicious. We were sad they did not have lines for the limeade, but the Vietnamese coffee and passionfruit jasmine tea were so refreshing with the Bahn Mi. We had ours with the chicken and the other with the sirloin steak - both seasoned well and with the perfect char taste pairing well with everything inside the sandwich. Bread was perfectly toasted, yet soft, perfect portion of veggies. Will need to come back for the limeade and sit outside again - perfect weather to enjoy Bow Market.

    Their Burlington location has been on my food list to try. Didn't realise they opened a location in Bow Market till this past weekend and tried them same time. They're a bit on the pricier side - The base price for the pho, banh mi and noodle bowl are vegetarian, if you want meat it'll cost more. My husband and I got the Mixed Pho with sirlion, beef balls, tendon and tripe and the Banh Mi with Crispy Pork. The portions are big so we were able to split each to eat. It was my first time trying the beef balls and I they're not for me- too gamey and my first time having cow tripe - I liked this. The banh mi with crispy pork belly was SO good - this is a must try.

    Not sure why there are low reviews. The pho we had was incredibly rich and filling- made with bone broth and delightful herbs. I had pho at a different restaurant earlier in the week, and there's honestly no comparison. The limeade is excellent too. Tastes like a mojito sans the rum. The mint is quite flavorful. A bit pricey, but probably on par with the other bow market restaurants. The portion of the pho may look small, but it's actually quite a large amount. I used to enjoy the original Viet Citron, when I lived in Vermont, and I'm psyched they're in MA now!

    Definitely paying the bow market tax when you come here! Food was decent, but nothing extraordinary. The outdoor seating is nice though when the weather is good. Lots of herbs and sauce.

It was tasty, greasy (in a good way), and the spiced fries were a nice change up. My wife and I ordered a bottle of wine which was priced quite reasonably. This place has a stealthy good selection of craft beers on tap. Look forward to returning here again.

We got an…read moreamazing booth seating, but really wanted their fancy bus seating which gives a classic diner feel to the restaurant. TL;DR - if you are from Bombay, are craving that specific Bombay Chinese food taste, and Vada Pav - look no further - this is the place. Most of their staff are fellow Mumbaikars - shout out to Shiv, Dhvani, and Ronak! Shiv, our server was friendly and our hungry table got straight to ordering which included a flavor packed and well priced Lychee Martini ($10), Masala Chai Hot Toddy ($12), and Spicy 'Lil Rita ($12) - being the best one! Food included some well name dishes like Kashmiri Deviled Eggs ($12), Vada Pav ($12), Rasam Risotto ($15), Butter Chicken Pot Pie ($20), Chicken Steak with Makhani Sauce ($18), Street Fried Noodles ($16), and Penne Pasta with Chicken for the kiddos. Food just hits the right spots and is very flavorful, extremely well seasoned, and perfectly spiced. Interiors and their bar is very inviting. Noise levels during our stay were on the lower end. Service was excellent. What was refreshing was they didn't charge us any automatic gratuity even for our large group - but absolutely deserved a generous one! Highly highly recommend if flavorful food is your thing!

    We were part of a large group (12 diners) for a pre-wedding dinner/party…read more Except for the couple getting married, I believe the rest of our party were the only out-of-towners dining that evening. This is a pub-type atmosphere with a full-service, large bar serving cocktail specials and a gazillion draft beer options. There is a street-side patio if you wish to watch the people and cars at Davis Square. Five Horses serves American comfort food, and they do a pretty good job serving up their offerings. I ordered the steak tips, and they were OK. They were served Med/rare, as ordered, but they did need a bit more seasoning. Plus one ordered a steak salad, and it was OK. They were pretty frugal with the protein, and it came with an abundance of tomatoes. Another guest split a cobb salad it arrived without some ingredients, like bacon. Other diners stated that their dinners were excellent, so 4 stars seems about right. Even though they were very busy, our table was well taken care of throughout the evening. If I lived here, this would be in my rotation for a brew or two, catch a game, and enjoy a burger.

    I try not to post negative reviews but I do not recommend the flank steak. I saw it (flank steak,…read morechimmichurri sauce, mashed potatoes, and broccoli) at $29 and said I haven't ordered a steak in while, let's treat myself. Boy was I disappointed, it was literally four tiny slices of beef, about a ladle and a half of mashed potatoes (flavor was great but the texture was dry and it was hard to swallow), and the broccoli was broccoli. The steak was cooked to my liking (rare) but it was room temp and I would describe that serving size as maybe the equivalent of a medallion. Everything else our table ordered (pizza, shepherd's pie, and a burger) looked great but the flank steak is not it y'all. However the service was top notch and will definitely go back, just won't order the flank steak next time!
