A classic, throwback Zombie.
Kevin B.

I wasn't expecting the place to be so open and airy when I walked in. It was beautiful and I knew right away that I was going to have a great experience. The staff was friendly. Service was amazing and the food was simply outstanding. I don't think I would change a thing. I'll be back. Oh, and did I mention that the price is fair. Right on point with quality. Perfect 10

Beef Noodle pho
Myesha R.

I love it here. This place is so clean, fresh, and everything is great; the food is delicious. The drinks are wonderful. The people are very nice, and the service is good. It's spacious, and the whole ambiance is really nice, elegant, and very welcoming. Everything is tasty and freshly made. 10000/10 its Me & my Daughter my favorite spot.

Bun Bo Hue
Laila D.

Stopped by here as was intrigued by the exterior and Est 1984. The ambiance and service is wonderful and the food delicious. We got a small Bun Bo Hue, a sizzling beef and a the Vietnamese ravioli. Among these, the ravioli was my favorite but all three dishes were excellent. I loved the interior design, it has the charm and grandeur of the old school Asian American restaurants that you may find in Manhattan or Philadelphia.

Tofu curry
Harshath G.

This West Philly restaurant was a go-to when I used to be around this area. The location has good service, and a low key nice decor inside. The service is pretty quick overall. My most distinct memories of this place are the revolutionary crispy spring rolls. I don't know if I'll ever have spring rolls as great anywhere else. They're large, crispy, flavorful, juicy, and just everything I ever wanted in a spring roll. Because of that, they are served not only as an appetizer, but you can enjoy them over some cold vermicelli noodles with a light sauce, a delightful meal. The tofu curry is also decent, though definitely on the milder side, and a bit more on the watery side. I am vegetarian, but I have also heard the pho here is good!

Beef Stewed Beef Noodle Soup
Jen T.

Decent food and friendly service in a nice, spacious restaurant setting. I honestly had higher hopes for the food (maybe too high), but maybe we ordered the wrong things? My stewed beef noodle soup was good but the noodles were slightly overcooked. I like that they had small and large size options for the noodle soups, and a small was plenty for me. The crispy vegetarian spring rolls were wonderfully crisp, but a tiny bit bland, except that the sauce they came with was super salty and not the flavor profile I expected (still decent, though, just had to dip carefully--maybe they have a different sauce for vegetarian vs not?). My husband's fried tofu vermicelli bowl was fine, kinda basic and a bit light on the veggies. I'd be happy to go back and try other things, but probably only if I'm in the area already.

The lot right next door was great for parking. All and all the food was great and would say the one fish curry stole the show. The tempora shrimp was good too!

Love the decorations at the restaurant! A decent crowd on Friday night, it was about 15 mins wait for the table, but you can always grab a drink at the bar while you are waiting. Thy got a pretty big menu, I am sure you can always find something you like, the menu is also available online. Service was quick and friendly, it was a pretty satisfying portion for the food, the spring rolls were tasty and cut up in proper size. The broth of the noodles soup was flavorful. Also highly recommend their salt and pepper shrimp, simply delicious.

Green tea & coconut ice cream
Matt M.

I've visited twice and will keep coming back. Everything I've tried has been delicious and seems made with TLC. I found plenty of free parking. Beautiful atmosphere. Friendly staff. Excellent variety on the food & drink menu.

Beef Pho
Alex A.

Beef pho is consistently excellent and served quickly in giant and affordable portions. Photo speaks for itself.

Came back ten years later and sadly, it was not as good as I remembered but still decent! I wouldn't recommend the seafood noodle soup (the veggies/toppings were all previously frozen) but the beef pho and the fried pork spring rolls were good!

A no frills place. Cash only. They serve great pho. Johnny on the spot. Sit. Order. Eat and pay…read more But it's consistently really good. Not really a date night. But definitely is a nice comfort food option.

This is supposedly the best phở in Philadelphia, and the best I've ever had! And it's incredibly…read morecheap compared to Boston. 1.Phở - Tái, Nạm, Gầu, Gân, Sách: The broth was dark, but the flavor was natural and umami; the beef was in big portion and large slices, tender, and the tripe had no gamey taste; the rice noodles were authentic Vietnamese phở, perfectly cooked and very refreshing. The biggest surprise was the tái (eye-round steak), yet still retaining that pleasantly chewy texture of undercooked beef; the gầu (fat brisket) was thick and crisp, fragrant but not greasy--who would have thought I'd find brisket fat here? This showed the restaurant's precise control over the broth temperature and the thickness of the beef. Almost all phở restaurants claim to offer authentic raw beef or various cuts of beef, but very few can truly make customers feel the difference. The restaurant's decor is simple but spacious and clean; the service is average, but very efficient. Efficiency is essential for phở, otherwise the beef would be overcooked in the hot broth. After all, the essence of a restaurant is food, and for such affordable ones, it's gratifying to see them spend most of their costs on the food itself.

Pho Today is an enormous restaurant which does authentic Vietnamese very well. I honestly believe…read moretheir broth is better than Pho '75 across the street which seemed rather sweet to me. They have great meats. Their hearty Buns will blow your mind: as noted, the House Special is practically enough for two people. You'll also see many people eating the Prime Rib Pho which is quite different. to me it looks a bit unwieldly (much prefer meats cut into the broth). Their Bún Riêu, Duck Soup (served with a unique ginger sauce and bamboo shoots) and Bún bò Huế all hit the mark. Pho Today gives you two choices for the classic Fish In Pottery Pot, bone-off and bone-on. Many Vietnamese restaurants don't carry this anymore. One thing I should tell y'all is that, when you order your meal, ask for the homemade chilli oil.....they won't give it to you unless you ask: it's made with garlic and is really special. If I were to nitpick I'd suggest upping the ante on the spring rolls which are more of a footnote here. I much prefer the larger spring rolls, cut into 4 sections served with basil, veggies and lettuce for wrapping. But, yea, this place does a really good job and seems to be the go-to for both Vietnamese food and serious eaters.

They have rainbow ice! Most Vietnamese restaurants don't make these anymore…read more The biggest pho with the mostest: short rib pho. Can split between 2-3 ppl honestly. A lot of seating. Though not a huge fan of their lighting; a bit too bright. Fast customer service and they check back often. Large bathroom in the rear. Clean.
