Delicious chicken fried rice for 55k. Hot and has a pan-fried aroma. The seating is a bit crowded and cramped, but those who like this atmosphere will enjoy it. Mostly tourists eat here.
Bun cha served with lettuce only. The meat is also very strange. And they bring out a bowl of hot fish sauce that burns your hand when you touch it. In general, they sell it for foreign tourists to eat, but for Vietnamese people to eat like that, it's not a proper bun cha dish.
If you are looking for a place to enjoy authentic Northern-style pho, then Pho Bac Hai is a name worth trying. The eatery has two branches: one on Tran Phu and one on Tran Quoc Toan. The Tran Phu branch, though seated on the sidewalk with a casual atmosphere, has significantly better pho. The broth is rich, naturally sweet, and fragrant with the characteristic cinnamon and star anise of Northern pho. In particular, Korean customers favor this branch, and it is always crowded. The rare stir-fried beef pho here is outstanding: the beef is stir-fried until tender and flavorful, combined with piping hot broth that blends perfectly. The accompanying condiments are standard Northern style with chili sauce and pickled garlic in vinegar, each contributing to the complete flavor of the pho bowl. The Tran Quoc Toan branch is located indoors, cleaner and more comfortable, suitable if you need a cool place to sit. However, the flavor here is not as satisfying as the Tran Phu branch, especially the broth which is somewhat lighter. Besides pho, the beef and pickled mustard greens fried rice is also a must-try. The fried rice here is fluffy, not greasy, with crunchy and sour pickled mustard greens, tender and savory beef, overall very palatable. In summary, if you prioritize deliciousness and authentic Northern pho, visit Tran Phu. If you prefer to sit in a clean, more comfortable space, Tran Quoc Toan is the suitable choice.
The eatery is crowded, the owner is cheerful and lovely. A medium portion is 40k, adding meat soup for 40 is a lot 😚
Staff are cheerful and enthusiastic. Even when arriving to eat at midnight, the place is still crowded with customers, but the pho is served very quickly.
Glorious Pho Bo. The price, I think, is overpriced. I came in by mistake, confusing it with a neighboring establishment with better reviews, but I didn't really regret it. The downsides: the staff doesn't speak English and everything is set up on a conveyor belt.
Tasty, fast, atmospheric) ate pho ga (chicken soup) really tasty)
Traditional restaurant as we like in Vietnam you are seated on the sidewalk the food is very good and of good quality.
Went to have lunch... Very good
Very good pho, the waiter was very nice
We were just across the street. There is an ice cream establishment and next to it, a small mobile restaurant, super good and clean.
Previously, the pho was quite delicious, but now it's getting worse day by day, probably because too many tourists come to eat.
This eatery has changed owners, now the food is terrible. The portion sizes are also smaller than before. Came back after a year and didn't see any familiar faces, the service style is also different from the previous casual atmosphere.
Rip off customers. A 40k bowl of phở is not as good as a bowl of hủ tiếu gõ. Only a few slices of beef and 2 beef balls. Will never come back. Advise tourists not to visit this shop. Never come back again. They have price experience related another.
Delicious pho, affordable prices, enthusiastic staff
High price. The food is bad, I ordered beef pho and chicken pho. The bowl of pho is tiny with little meat and little noodles, price 60k. Sitting on the sidewalk, hot, lacking fans.
The pho is ridiculously expensive but it's just well-done pho, nothing special. I advise everyone not to go eat. Just eat the one where you can choose rare, well-done, brisket, fatty brisket, flank.
Left belongings for 5 minutes, came back and they were gone, staff is too bad.
Delicious pho. Traveling but it's so cheap
Les nouilles de riz locales sont vraiment délicieuses… J'ai testé tous les restaurants de nouilles de riz réputés pendant mon voyage, mais celui-ci est de loin le meilleur ! Il est relativement propre pour un restaurant local et se trouve…
C'est un bon endroit pour manger un morceau rapidement. Le service est très rapide et les phos sont délicieux. Par contre, le pho végétarien est servi avec un bouillon de viande.
Je suis arrivé vers 21h30 et j'ai mangé. Les nouilles de riz étaient rafraîchissantes et tout le monde les a appréciées,…

Petit restaurant, grandes saveurs ! Excellent repas ! J’ai goûté le pho spécial, le pho au poulet et les rouleaux de printemps aux crevettes. Tout était frais et délicieux. Je recommande vivement ! Le personnel est très accueillant. À ne pas manquer !
