Absolutely fantastic place to eat. Service is impeccable, food is always fresh and hot. We love to come here no matter the occasion. If you come at lunch rush it will be packed. Which is always a great sign for me. I have never had anything I didn’t love from here.

Huge pho, you can definitely split the large portion between two people.

I had dinner here and ordered the A2 Fresh Shrimp Spring Rolls (2 rolls) as an appetizer and the N11 Dumplings Egg Noodle Soup (shrimp, pork, and dumplings, small, no cilantro) as my entrée. The food itself was tasty and satisfying, and the inside of the restaurant is kept clean.
The only downside is the atmosphere. Every time I visit, it feels a bit too dark inside and the yellowish lighting makes the space look less fresh than it actually is. If they could brighten up the lighting, it would really make the clean interior stand out more.
Overall, good food and clean space :) just wish the lighting matched the freshness of the meal.

I visited Pho Lee recently with my daughter during peak lunch hours. While the food was okay, it really lacked flavor and didn’t stand out at all. What truly ruined the experience, though, was the service. Our waitress brought us the check just 10 minutes after we received our food. It felt incredibly rushed and made us wonder if she was trying to kick us out simply because we had ordered one medium bowl of soup to share. I understand that it was a busy time, but that kind of treatment felt unfair and unwelcoming. On top of that, I didn’t get a refill on my drink, which only added to the sense that we weren’t valued as customers. I’ve dined at many busy restaurants before, and it’s possible to be efficient without being rude. Unfortunately, that balance was completely missing here. Overall, I won’t be coming back. The food didn’t make up for the poor service, and no one likes to feel unwelcome while dining out.

I had the tofu vegetable noodle bowl with tofu spring roll. Omgoodness it is so good. When she gave us the fish sauce and told us to pour it on the food. I admit I doubted but it made it taste so good. My husband had same but with beef and chicken spring roll. This is our first time at an Vietnamese restaurant. We'll be back. Come and enjoy.

Ordered the regular size special pho ($20). It was not bad, but not good either - missing the authentic seasoning/flavor. So expensive for the amount of food given, compared to other restaurants. Positives were it came out fast and hot (temperature).

A rich and fine curry awaits you here. Or perhaps a nice bowl of pho. One of Auburn's greatest restaurants.

I had never been to Pho Lee in the first 14 years I lived in Auburn. However, after discovering it, I now go twice a week. The Pad Thai is addicting and the Happy Shrimp is a must have appetizer. Take my advice and stop by PHOO LEE if you are looking for the very best made to order food in Auburn.

The pork Bahn Mi sandwich is fabulous. The owner is very personable, and the staff is pleasant and helpful.
Everything is fresh, hot, and delicious.
I have been going to Pho Lee for six years regularly. The food is always great, and the owner, Mr. Lee, is the man!
Great food, cozy atmosphere, friendly staff.
