I think this still remains one of the best Pho places in Boston, the broth is great, but it does seem lie they changed the beed at some point over the past 2 years.
JingXun HuOctober 27, 2016Always chock-full (come before 1800hrs). Brusque service but reliable pho with rare beef in clear soup. A brawnier version of Pho Basil near Copley
Karen SegelJune 26, 2018I asked the waiter what he suggested since it was my 1st time there and he asked me some questions and then gave me some suggestions and did not rush me. Everything was delicious!
Matt ShannonJuly 27, 2015It is pretty good but far from the best in Boston for any Vietnamese food. It is just well known and well positioned, but that doesn't mean its that good.
Andy COctober 19, 2013Pho is actually pretty good and would recommend. Food comes out exceptionally fast too. But don't expect good waitstaff service as it is completely subpar. And don't be surprised when they solicit tip
delicious pho -- I don't think I've ever ordered anything here that wasn't great. yes, the servers are brusque, but that's the payoff for incredibly fast service.
Talia ShulzeMarch 28, 2016Phô! The best pho in Boston. I usually get the rare beef pho and an order of veggie fresh rolls.
Jon BevisApril 23, 2016Sweet and sour chicken with onion and tomato; chicken with broccoli; fried rice; smoothies are all good.
Order the #12, no tendon, no tripe. Upgrade to #13 if you're really hungry. Downsize to #11 if you're just a little hungry.
DaryanaAugust 28, 2014A nice change from American constant pizzas and burgers! A fresh bite:) not expensive and friendly waiters
Sam HigginsJuly 20, 2023Great place for Vietnamese food. Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice atmosphere looking out at Chinatown.
BettyApril 18, 2017An extra large bowl of pho was what we needed to warm up when we visited on a really cold day last month.
Food = fantastic. Service = abysmal. Bring cash so you don't have to worry about them messing with your card when you leave a terrible tip.
Nick PochedlyMarch 14, 2014Pretty good, wish they had cilantro and limes for the pho. There might be better pho places in Chinatown.

Bruno LopesJanuary 21, 2013Amazing noodles. I ordered something that was priced under $8 to go and on my cc statement I got a charge of an even $12. My friend paid cash and he paid the menu price. Next time ill keep my receipt
Best Pho in town. Order some after a movie, they close late.
Service was barely passable. Large portion esp the XL and good bang for the buck but def not the best pho around. 3.5/5.
SNOCRUOctober 16, 2012The Pho is unreal here. Come early during lunch cause the place fills up quick
- Siobhan MarxJanuary 21, 2013The chicken noodle soup with clear vermicelli noodles is perfect for a cold day.
- LongJuly 7, 2011Best pho in the Boston area hands down! All the dishes are delicious and large portions too...
Eric ScottSeptember 14, 2014The broth is cloudy and not very flavorful. It also wasn't even hot enough to cook my bean sprouts. They also forgot to bring my my iced coffee. Definitely did not live up to the hype.
Dan GruzmanOctober 28, 2014I found the service good. No fake cheer but not rude or impatient. Most phos seem good. Curry chicken was relatively bland but the salmon with pineapple burst with tom yum-like goodness
The chicken lemongrass is delicious - but it's a bit spicy, so watch out!
Conrad CentenoApril 30, 2010The large bowl of Pho Gia is the bomb here. Pair that with some crispy spring rolls and you'll feel like you're in Saigon.
- Try the #25 chicken vermicelli soup w/ extra veggies! The #59 is also great. So are the pineapple smoothies!
- Get the pho ga (chicken soup), add healthy dose of sriracha and enjoy.
Denny WongMay 14, 2012Get the beef noodle with all in. Emmmmm.... Yum yum. Let see if I can it back here later (:
JaclynApril 3, 2017If Vietnamese manicurists from three separate nail salon shops suggested this as the 🇻🇳 to-go, it must be! Tried once and I really like the beef pho. Flavourful stock and tender beef pieces.
