Next oxtail soup!

The texture of the pho is bad. It’s melting. Also so expensive, won’t go for a second time.

I miss having there Pho right now. Plus I loved the art and how nice the staff was.

Our go-to Pho spot in Anchorage. I get the rare steak Pho everytime, it’s so good. The steak is sliced very thin and is super tender. You can ask for the raw steak on the side if you want to cook it in the broth yourself (I always do this if we get it take-out so that it doesn’t get overcooked, the way they pack the soup the broth stays very hot!). The portion sizes for the soup is large too. The crab wontons are really good too, and the Alaska spring roll is my other favorite!

I’ve been going to Phonatik since they opened almost 10 years ago, and it has been nice to see them grow over the years.

I like their menu because it has a good variety, and the food is pretty solid overall. The dine-in service has generally been good, and the restaurant itself looks clean, modern, and comfortable.
That said, the takeout experience has almost always been on the slower side throughout the years, so that is one area I think they could improve.

Still, Phonatik is one of the better pho restaurants in Anchorage. I really think they have a lot of potential, but they may need to step up their game a bit to become truly outstanding.

Awesome pho! Clear, deep flavoured broth. Superb service. Jalapeño with pho is surprisingly good!

I consistently go here with my friends and it’s a great and CLEAN restaurant, the atmosphere of the art on the walls and music 💯, great service from the servers and they’re really funny, and the food! So good, my favorite is the Oxtail Pho. When it’s busy and I go with let’s say a table of 5 we have to wait like 5-15 minutes which is honestly better than any other restaurant, but it’s 100% worth the wait, promise.

I love the food and I'm so glad this restaurant is getting the business it deserves. However, this was the second time I called to place a takeout order and I was placed on hold for more than 5 minutes.
I waited on the phone because I understand you're busy, but please make it more convenient to order takeout. Perhaps an online ordering system option could be considered.

I order the Vietnamese Banh Mi sandwich with tofu every visit and it’s consistently excellent. Flavorful, fresh, and done right every time. Staff is polite, service is quick, and prices are reasonable. Easily one of my favorite spots for dining in and picking up.
