Haven't been here in a while and I appreciate the struggle that short staffing provides. We were seated and given water, then not acknowledged for a full hour while multiple other groups came in and had their orders taken. It would have been nice to just hear that the server would be with us as soon as they could and that would have been fine but it's clear that he forgot about us completely as he watched us leave without being served and didn't say anything. It must have not occurred to him at all that we were forgotten.It is really disappointing because this is the best pho place we know of so we are really sad.Edit: Thank you for the response and again, we totally get that short staffing makes things really difficult. We just weren't acknowledged in the slightest even to let us know that more time was needed and they'd be with us. That would have been completely fine as the additional wait isn't the problem, it's that we were completely forgotten about and ignored while everyone else got served and we were not at all. There was only water on our table and we were right by multiple others who got seated and attended to. Short staff or not, I still do not understand how we got completely forgotten about for that long.I think we will be back later on and we are glad that maternity leave is offered and utilized. That always needs to be done for new mothers. However, it still doesn't address how we weren't served AT ALL. Slow service is fine and makes perfect sense, but no service is demoralizing and saddening. I hope to take this review down when we return. Thanks.

Best Pho I’ve had in the Salt Lake area! Family owned and is located in a cute house turned restaurant! Almost missed it because of this. 10/10 recommend!

OH MY PHO. First off, the staff are so friendly and helpful even while they’ve been so short staffed (I included a pic of the signs on their door outlining hours and such until August 2nd,) but the PHO was SO AMAZING! I asked our waitress what their most popular dish and the #10 and all of the additional toppings and sauces were superb together! Highly recommend Pho Tay Ho if you like delicious Vietnamese food!

Best pho in Salt Lake City. I keep coming back for the fresh spring rolls, and their house made chili oil! Their menu is small, so you know they make it very well.

Wonderful pho! No nonsense, small menu and good staff. Be patient, they are family owned.

Homemade and served by adorable grannies. Amazing.

A fantastic family-run restaurant! Our pho was delicious. Fast, friendly service. A perfect treat on a cold rainy afternoon ?

The pho here is really good! Very clean and very flavorful.

This is a hidden gem near downtown Salt Lake. Be careful it looks like an ordinary house so it's easily missed. When you go inside it's a small restaurant with a warming atmosphere just like being at home. You will be greeted by the most wonderful nicest lady she so awesome!! Oh and the food is so good I mean really really good!

This is legit the best pho in salt lake hands down. Super cute house with authentic food. The broth to the pho is the first indicator that this food is made with love. I didn't even have a chance to take a proper picture because I devoured it so quickly. I also sometimes judge a place by how much they give you. Here they don't give you huge servings but that is ok because you leave so full. When I stood up and looked at all the other tables, not one pho bowl was left with broth. Everyone else had also shipped everything down to the last drop it's so good.
