Fried spring rolls, pork summer rolls, grilled pork chop pho, and grilled pork chop bahn mi. Yes.
Angela CaiAugust 17, 2015Really tasty pho, good size and the broth is rich. Sweet potato fries is a must-try
Spring rolls are awesome and a must-try. Both the pho and cold vermicelli are very good, and they pack things really nicely for take-out.
Arnaud RéautéNovember 24, 2015Great choice of banh Mi, bo bun and pho at a very cheap price. All delicious.
Gabriel HayesAugust 13, 2015Awesome Vietnamese food in the village right on Macdougal. Great bánh mì and pho.
Mohammad AlamSeptember 19, 2013The veggie pho and the catfish vermicelli was amazing . So was the special of the day crab cakes.
Chris GampatOctober 3, 2017This is he spot that changed the Pho experience for me. I hated it and then I saw the light. Get the spicy and don’t look back.
Ashley LoSeptember 2, 2015I go there all the time. Really great food with really great prices. Cash only!
Kristen MarieSeptember 7, 2020Beef pho was so good and authentic. The bahn mi is the best deal in town!
Jeanne ChoOctober 19, 2015Chicken pho on the sweet side. Prefer the beef broth which is super clean.
Bahn mi is great, just make sure they don't load one side with the peppers if you get it spicy!
- Gabriel HayesAugust 13, 2015Very crowded for lunch but they move through the line quickly. Hostess will take your order when waiting so the food is ready when you sit.
Billy DOctober 2, 2011This place is the real deal. Fresh ingredients and super tasty dishes. Try the Peking duck báhn mì for something different and awesome.
Alexander AttarDecember 20, 2018The pho broth is lacking. The variety of meat cuts you'd typically find in a regular bowl costs a few dollars extra. No real chilli sauce or dipping plates. You can find much better.
Naveen KonduruAugust 23, 2014Vermicelli with beef cubes excellent. I would have preferred sliced beef, but still very good.
If you like it spicy get the house special pho. It'll make you sweat in the best way possible.
Everything is good here!! Inexpensive and delicious. Bring cash no cards accepted.
The pho is highly addictive. The sauce for the sweet potato fries is super yum!
AliceMay 30, 2014I ordered take out (got the classic banh mi which was really good). Hmm.. not sure about some of the negative reviews on here..but the staff were extremely friendly to me.
Leo N-BAugust 23, 2015There's always a line for a table outside on the street but it's worth the wait!
Parham RouzbahaniNovember 24, 2018The pho and banh mi are both amazing. Great prices. Highly recommend.
Sam GilDecember 18, 2017Pho is as good as any I had even in Vietnam! ..at least late at night in winter.
The food isn't as good as everyone says. they just want you to eat as quickly as possible and get out so they can get new customers. So they will ask you if you are done when you still have food
Umair ZiaMarch 28, 2015God lord, man. Some incredibly satisfying pho and appz. Think of the beef... Think of all the delicious ass beef...
Chris KonecnyMarch 22, 2019Well, I have not been to Vietnam but this is best pho I've had. Could have used more veggies but maybe that's traditional, dunno. Cash only
FunesAugust 16, 2015The spring rolls are top notch but the Bahn mi was aight. Nothing to commute for, you probably have better Vietnamese in your hood. Hancos in Park Slope is better.
Hien LyNovember 25, 2014Vermicelli bowls are my favorite here. Pho is a close second. Pass on the Banh Mi's!
AmateurConciergeFebruary 4, 2015Rating inflated due to its proximity to NYU. Decent banh mi though the brisket is pretty sweet
Cash only. Grilled lemongrass chicken takes a little longer but it's good!
kim foxAugust 17, 2014Delicious and an excellent portion size. The staff were quite personable. Loved it.
actually authentic and good Vietnamese food, which is hard to find in nyc.
Ben K.March 15, 2012Crab cake banh mi and variety of pho are delicious. Wash down with a Vietnamese iced coffee.
Nicolette RomeroMay 23, 2015Yeah...dumplings spring rolls, etc. are all delish! Love the beef noodle soup. 🍜
Cheap, delicious, close Pho place around washington square park. Fast turnover
Tasty large bowls of pho. They even withstand delivery too.
Sandra TanAugust 18, 2013Their food makes a great pick-me-up. Have their Saigon Shack Pho and summer rolls.
The fried fish vermicelli was better than I could have hoped for. Damn tasty.
Mike ChauJuly 14, 2012Try the S.S. Spicy Brisket Banh Mi - With sautéed onion pineapple and spicy au jus sauce
