I do not remember the exact location of the restaurant but I remember it is not too far from the capitol hill. I went there for lunch with my friends during my visit to Washington DC. I had rice with grilled pork. Rice is a bit tough but grilled pork is amazing. The taste is so good. I recommend you to have that. But Pho is not on par with the one that I had in Lorton. The prices are reasonable.
My pro tip is that the table up at the front window has excellent air conditioning! I really enjoyed the beef tendon and round eye steak pho with extra jalapeño pepper slices. It was the perfect thing to help me sweat and cool off on a blazing hot summer day in DC.The service was ok. They could have come around and filled my water glass a bit more often.I’ll most definitely be back again.
We got the Goi Cuon, Bun Dac Biet, and Pho Bap Tai.- The Goi Cuon tasted quite bland, but the dipping sauce was pretty good.- The Bun Dac Biet was brilliant, fair amount of toppings with tasty sauce, especially the grilled pork, which was amazing!- The Pho Bap Tai was good. My mom liked it, especially the broth, the beef was also tender and flavorful; for me, it has a bit a lot of star anise for those who are sensitive to spices, but my mom is very judgmental when it comes to food and she says that it’s pretty close to the pho in South Vietnam.The restaurant has good location but was not really crowded when we arrived (around 11am), the owner told us they are still recovering from the pandemic. The atmosphere and service for dine-in were really nice.Regarding the price, I find it reasonable comparing to its convenient location and the quality of the food.
Review is for take out. Got the #1, 17 and 36. Broth was just okay on the pho and the meat quantity was good enough. Kind of surprised that the only green herbs were spring onion and cilantro and that we got lemons instead of limes. High point was the tendon in 17, so soft and buttery, really delicious. Fresh rolls were also just okay. They had fried tofu rather than shrimp which was kind of disappointing. Items were packed pretty well with everything separate so the noodles and veg didn't get too soft.
Reliably great—deep, flavourful broth with rich notes of star anise and beef stock. Crisp, fresh spring rolls stuffed with ground pork and mushroom.
The restaurant has good pho and rice meal! I would recommend special rice meal (which is number 26) on the menu. The pho is good too! For now the restaurant is lacking the drinks and some of the drinks in the menu is no longer provided. Due to lack of updating the current menu I can only rate this 4 out of 5. The photo just means the food is so good that I clean pretty well the plate as you can see! Lol! The vietnamese style milk coffee is also good! The taste wise is 5 out of 5.
Great foods at reasonable price! Authentic Vietnamese foods, the cook is Vietnamese. I also really like the special lemongrass juice. It’s fresh, delicious, and pink ?
Food was amazing!! It surprisingly wasn’t too busy and was a bit nervous after seeing some reviews say they don’t put a lot of protein. That wasn’t our situation at all!We received plenty of tofu and meat in our bowls. I felt like the serving was more than appropriate for how much you pay. The broth is DELICIOUS and I’ll most definitely come back! Best pho I’ve had in a while and the service was incredibly welcoming and friendly! :)
One of the best bowls of pho I’ve tasted. And as someone who’s tried pho in multiple states across the the country I can say their broth is by far my favorite. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Will definitely be coming back on my next visit to the city!
Came here after seeing that the highest rated pho place was temporary closed. As most reviews was saying how great the Brooth was I thought I try. It wasn't anything spectacular but wasn't water down like bad places. There was hardly any meat though so I'm not sure if it's covid related with supply and demand or if this is norm since most review also seem to agree. Overall not bad since I had worst but nothing to brag about either.
