The service was really quick and the food was wonderful! The best way to know a bowl of pho is good is to taste it and know that you don't need to add hoisin sauce. Sriracha for the spicy eaters but really this pho was fantastic! My husband got one of the vermicelli bowls and he really enjoyed that too. The restaurant was clean and there was plenty of parking. One of the best pho spots in Houston!
One of my favorite places for pho. Just also because they are soooo fast. As soon as I sit down, within 5 minutes I can get a bowl of pho. The pho so pretty good and full of all the essentials - tendon, tripe, etc. For the price of a bowl, it is a good deal. They have the option of a large and small bowl. They also have a lot of options as well as a vegetarian pho option which was perfect for my friend. The interior is also very cute with booths or tables. There is around 30 people worth of seating inside.
This is thee absolute cutest little space to grab pho from. The inside is quaint and clean with some boho touches. Service was pretty attentive and friendly. Food was pretty good and filling for a great price! Also heads up but after your meal they give you your bill and you're expected to go pay at the counter. I always feel it's helpful to explain these types of setups so you're not stuck at the table wondering. Will be returning and trying some more menu items.
Good pho, standard and sweet Nothing out of the character. It's located in a convenient location for me. I'd not choose to have pho here if I'm really craving super authentic ones.
Nothing has changed since my last review except for the fact that I love this place more. Their pho is always delicious. The ingredients to everything are fresh and well made. I usually get spring rolls or egg rolls for my lunch and then a bubble tea from Gong Cha. The spring rolls are tightly wrapped but full of items and tasty. The egg rolls always come with the freshest vegetables and a delicious sauce. Anything I order from there I wait for and it is ready in less than 5 minutes. Money bonus is that they are on Get Upside and if you have T-Mobile they are also a part of the dining rewards. Everything is reasonably priced and the staff is always friendly. Vietnamese food is a staple in Houston and Pho Ben does not miss. I'm pretty sure I come here multiple times during the week because it's clean, fresh, tasty, easy, and healthy.
Best pho spot in the heights!! Service is always quick and friendly. Food is so comforting and filling. Our fave weekend spot!! Can get pretty busy when it's cold out (perfect pho weather) but staff does try to get you seated as quick as possible. Modern and clean ambiance.
Ordered the Phở Đặc Biệt Pho - Noodle soup with eye of round steak, well-done flank, fatty brisket, soft tendon, and white tripe. It was Delicious !!! The downfall of ordering Pho via Door Dash is it's not assembled and the juice container isn't big enough to put everything, but I managed !! LOL !!
