It's in the back of the Hillandale Shopping Center. Very low key restaurant. The prices are affordable, They serve the usual Vietnamese cuisine, we had pho soup of Tai Gan-sliced eye of round steak and soft tendon, and Banh mi bo nuong grilled beef sandwich. The service was efficient and friendly. It was very quiet when we got there between lunch and dinner time. read more

Viet Pho & Grill - Sliced Eye of Round Steak & Soft Tendon - Vietnamese Near Me - Silver Spring, Maryland

Unfortunately, I've been to this place twice because I was in the area and craving pho. The 1st time: I didn't know. The second time, my GPS took me there, and I was instantly reminded of my 1st encounter. I decided to give it another chance. My experience was better than the 1st but it still wasn't stellar. The place was empty: big red flag.. My usual pho spot is always busy. The packaging of my pho was "interesting" and the taste was mediocre at best. The price was more than what I'm used to paying as well. The decor looked drab too (kind of old and dusty). My usual place has the same decor so that isn't a major factor. If you have an option to go elsewhere, don't do what I did. Get back in your car and GO somewhere else. read more

Do not come here! The server charged my card four times claiming it wasn't going through when the bank took my money. The food was not good, pho was very underwhelming and very chewy meat. I have been to a lot of places and this one is the worst. Not to mention they are very dirty. read more

We visited this establishment on 8/8/26 @ 6:45 pm. Really horrible Pho restaurant. If I could give less than 1 star I would. We were the ONLY customers which should have told us something. The server did not acknowledge us. I had to ask if we should select our own seats. He didn't write our order down so he got it wrong. I ordered hot Tea which I never got and my water had something floating in it. My recommendation is to steer clear of this place.This bad review is not the result of any language barriers. The server just doesn't care. We were about to leave when he finally brought my tea. I told him it was too late and he replied, "you can still drink some." read more

Came here for the first time for lunch on a weekend with a small group of people. I ordered the pho with vegetables and tofu. Total came out to approximately $15 (not including tip). What's Hot - Menu. There appears to be something for everyone- meats, veggies, and possibly even vegans. (I don't recall whether they provide vegetable broth.) There are appetizers, Vietnamese sandiwhces, bun (vermicelli noodles not in broth), rice dishes, and some drinks. I was disappointed they don't have a vegetarian bun, though. All their bun dishes had meat. - Portions. There are 2 bowl sizes available. - Price. That I could get a meal for less than $20 for myself is pretty good. To be fair, I did not order an appetizer. - Service. Pretty good. My group was 5 people and our orders were ready within a reasonable amount of time. Additionally, we asked the staff to split our check, so that we each paid for ourselves. They were able to do so fairly well. - Layout. There are tables and chair for small groups, including booths. Appears to accommodate individuals and groups of reasonable sizes. - Parking. There is a small parking lot for the plaza, which is a decent size. What's Not - Quality. Not bad, but I've had better. My veggie pho included tofu, cabbage, broccoli, and carrots. No bak choy or any other type of vegetable (Asian or otherwise). It was helpful to add the sliced raw jalapenos and bean sprouts for more flavor. On its own, it didn't really stand out, especially the broth. - Service. Fairly reliable, as discussed above. However, one of our group asked for no onions in her pho, which they accidentally included when her pho came out. Thankfully, they were able to correct the mistake quickly and without a fuss. Final Answer Would be willing to come back, but not a first choice. read more

I was so disappointed because I wanted to like this place, it's soo close. BUT The menus were filthy and had cigarette burns on them. That was the first red flag. The table was clean and the waiter was a sweetheart. However, the sanitation of the place just was not up to par. The only reason why I did not give it a one star is because of the server, he was very nice. I wanted to leave, but I stayed and waiting for my food after seeing the sauces were covered in dirt not just like old sauce from someone spilling it but literal dirt and dust that was like sticky. The pepper had some black streaks in the shaker, all of the things (condiments) on the table were dirty. I waited for my food against my better judgment. The ice looked as if had been pulled off the bottom of a freezer and contains specks of God know what. I took one piece of the shrimp with my fingers because the silverware was dirty as well, and it taste like it was spoiled. I immediately spit it out and went and paid for my meal (+tip) and left without eating it. I will never be back again. read more

Zero stars if I could. Food was inedible and we left immediately after getting the food (still paid but I probably shouldn't have). This place has terribly slow service. It took 30 minutes for two bowls of pho to come out and they tasted like beef water. Never in my life have I ever had such horrific tasting pho. Usually pho comes out fast, so I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. That doubt was destroyed when we received the food. Traditionally, pho broth is full of delicious and complex flavorings from the medley of spices used. Imagine how surprised we were when we took the first sip and tasted absolutely nothing. The beef slices were very dark and tasted funny. We also ordered summer rolls which took forever to come out and we had to spit out a piece because it was hard. The windows are broken and it's clear the management doesn't care about upkeep. I'm surprised this place is even open. read more

Was glad to find this place for a bathroom stop. Extensive menu. Wife liked her Bahn Mi and my food was quite tasty. Server very pleasant.

This place used to be really good. I'm not sure why it went downhill but it did. It's not clean. It needs a renovation. The staff struggled with order accuracy. The pho was decent but I felt uncomfortable eating there given the lack of cleanliness and overall environment. read more

Good flavor pho but we had a cockroach crawling on my dad's arm so don't sit against the walls. They served boba and then when we pointed out there weren't any boba she said "yeah, we don't have any boba." We said we specially asked for Boba so she said she could make it in 15 min. So we waited. When we pointed out the cockroach she said sorry but seemed like it was common and did not offer to compensate us. Nasty. read more

I'm not sure this place wants to be in business, it's certainly not trying. Birthday meal for my son, four of us and every dish was terrible waaay too much salt and overall not flavorful. Ended up not eating most of it . Each of our dishes came out one by one and minutes (3+ in a few cases) apart. Boba tea, which my kids usually love, had just a solid block of boba. Ordered boa and after initially getting our order wrong they brought two giant, and I suspect microwaved, boa which was mediocre. TV blaring news wasn't helping the mood either. The whole experience was so bad I to my son we owed him another birthday meal. read more

I came in on a day where there was only one customer there waiting for a to go order. I was in between appointments and not feeling well so I decided to grab Pho. The restaurant maybe seems to be under new management? I haven't been to this location in years. There were no fried spring rolls which was disappointing however my chicken pho & bahn mi that i got to go were decent. My issue is that when I checked my bank account days later I see that the woman who was working charged me two different times for two different amounts. I am not sure how that happened when i was literally the only customer in the entire restaurant as i ate and when i paid. But it was super disappointing considering how unwell i already felt to then feel like i was taken advantage of. I won't be returning. read more

And I read the reviews...Im still in shock. I spent $54 on the worst food ive had in a long time. I'll start with the spring rolls. They literally take ONE shrimp, slice in super thin into 3-4 ,lay the paper then slices onto a ton of vermicelli and wrap it. It was so loosely wrapped that I knew right away they have someone in that kitchen other than a Asian cook. The peanut sauce is super thick and looked old. Lets talk about combination lo mein and combination fried rice that was $16 each. You get 4 shrimp in each container, the beef looked like it had freezer burn, very little chicken. What a waste of time and money. So glad I didnt order pho. I can tell you Grandma or Grandpa are NOT cooking in that kitchen. I won't say what I suspect. Horrible experience and I'll never go back read more

This place must have changed hands, and it's much better. For starters the proprietor brought hot tea with the menu. Real tea, with leaves. Turned out to hearty, sweetened jasmine and very welcome on a 30° windy day. Spoiler alert, no charge. Pho, of course. Broth was rich, properly clear and defatted, but low on spices and could have used a little less salt. Beef was tender and flavorful. Plenty of nicely textured noodles. Medium bowl was a bit smaller than regular bowl at other places. Very cordial service. $9.95, no extra credit for value. If the broth had delivered that happy place perfume I would have had to consider the fifth star, but a solid four **** and I won't hesitate to try the vermicelli bowls and bahn mi next time I'm in the area. read more

went here for a first date not that long ago, the place was messy with screw holes all over, the blender for drinks was super loud, and they charged me for the wrong amount. I ordered 4 things which totals out to 40 dollars, they charged me 50, i decided not to say anything about it. The service was bad but I still left a small tip but they ended up making it 3 times more than what i put, i expected to pay 40 ended up paying close to 60, it may not seem like much but it is for a teenager read more

Something is seriously wrong with this place. Gave our order after 10 minutes. Server came back after 15 because he forgot what it was. Then waited another 45 minutes with nothing. The server probably forgot our order, might've never put it in. We ended up walking out. Another table received their fried shrimp after 35 minutes... As they were paying their tab. read more

I'd say 3.5 stars. Haven't been since after the change in ownership. It was definitely different. Place smelled like a public restroom, which is not something you want to smell when you're about to eat. I didn't notice until I took off my mask AFTER they had already seated us. Ordered the pho with brisket, flank eye steak and tendons (C8) on their menu - my go-to. It was good, but got cold halfway through. So I didn't get to enjoy the broth at the very end. That was very disappointing. And service was slow even thought there was only one other couple there. read more

The spicy lemongrass broth - hidden in the "light" section of the menu - is some of the best pho broth I've ever had. Absolutely delicious. Thanks for the wonderful meal! read more

Food was Okay at best Service was horrible. The kitchen staff got into an argument that eventually found its way physically into the restaurant. The lack of cooperation among the staff resulted in our meal being delivered one person at a time over the course of an hour. One of us checked out and left to get something to eat across the parking lot. The ambiance was absolutely poor. The staff ruined the eating experience in total. With the availability of other restaurants in the area, this place is doomed to failure. Bottom Line: don't waste your time here. read more

How can you walk into a restaurant on a whim, order THREE things and have all THREE things be wrong? Like what are the odds?! I walked the hell out.

Disappointing to say the least. Egg rolls were served soggy in oil and the filling wasn't even warm. Whatever oil was used, the oil wasn't hot enough. The PHO.. it's a sprinkling of meat and all noodles. Never had lemons served with PHO before.. Grilled Chicken on vermicelli - no, just no. read more

The rice and salad was fresh. The chicken was sweet (pink coating) and there was no sauce for the rice. I felt like something was missing. It was different. The same chicken is used in the Pho. It makes for an interesting mix (not my cup of tea). I was looking for a savory spicy favor. read more

I eat pho a lot back home and decided to give this place a try even though some people left bad reviews. This place has some top notch pho. I've had the vegetable pho and the beef pho the past 2 nights and the portions are large. I'm a 210 pound man so I can put down some food. Let me tell you. Do not listen to the ignorant comments about chicken wings or whatever. You don't go to a place like this for chicken wings anyway. It's like ordering a kids meal at a steak house. In all seriousness though, they give you all the additions for your pho, I've ordered takeout and they have not messed my order up at all. Extremely good broth and everything is fresh. They give you lemon for cleanse too. I will be going back here every time I visit now. read more

The ONLY positive thing about this pho place is that it's tucked away in a quiet side of the shopping center, so it was nice to have somewhere to grab food during COVID times without it being overcrowded. Employees were also wearing masks. HOWEVER, that being said- there's no way I will be visiting this restaurant again. There were little gnats EVERYWHERE. At first, it was seemingly only one or two so my group ignored them. The longer we sat and when we got our food, they were swarming and we finally noticed them all over the walls and tables. I wish I had gotten a photo but trust me...you don't want to dine in. We only stayed because we ordered already and we were hoping for the best but it was an unpleasant experience as we spent the rest of the meal swatting our hands at the bugs. I feel itchy just thinking about it. The food was super mediocre, there are better pho places in the area and I wish we had gone to one of them instead. I have not written a review on Yelp in so long but I vowed to write this one. TLDR: gnats everywhere!! Food meh!! read more

If I would have seen the women's restroom before ordering, I would have left. Tiny flies as other reviewers have mentioned.. floor was greasy. Phõ Ga tasted ok. Summer Roll rice paper was kinda tough to bite through but tasty. Can't help but wonder about the cleanliness of the kitchen. Just passing through the state, but hope they improve because the service was friendly and timely. The server prepared my leftover tea for me to take in a sealed boba cup. He didn't have to do that-very sweet. read more

I ordered food to go- I ordered 5 small Pho soups with out onion. Upon checking the order at the restaurant, I realized they all had onions- cool, no biggie. GUESS WHAT ELSE I FOUND? a friendly cockroach, not 1 BUT two. I managed to only get a picture of 1, squished in by the lid. When I placed the side down opened the lid, that squished one ran out and went about its business. Following that, another one was found hanging in the bottom of the noodles. I was able to get a refund immediately, the owner was notified, but it seems this is a recurring issue. She was extremely nonchalant about it. I would absolutely not recommend this to any one. I can only imagen what goes on in the kitchen. read more

I am a huge pho lover and needless to say, this is by far the absolute worst pho I've ever had. The broth itself is extremely greasy, the slices of meat are not thin at all.

I cannot express how horrible the pho here is read more

I am very Disappointed at this place and used to be one of my favorite the host didn't even understand what I wanted to order and veryyyyyy limited on the Menu. Not everything there available.
