About Pho Lee

Pho Lee is a restaurant located in a busy strip mall, where parking can be challenging. Despite the quiet atmosphere, the restaurant serves fresh and flavorful dishes, including shrimp spring rolls with outstanding peanut sauce and hot and flavorful pho ga. Customers appreciate the special taste of the pho broth, with hints of lemongrass and licorice, and the smoky grilled pork. The prices are reasonable, with large pho bowls priced at $16.95 and spring rolls at $8.95. The service is friendly and feels like home, making the food taste even better. The owner shows a passion for family-style service, which adds to the welcoming vibe. Visitors have enjoyed dishes like bun with grilled pork and eggrolls, especially on hot summer days when the noodles are perfectly balanced with protein and veggies. Customers also mention that the place feels cozy, with the TV often playing sports, and the staff working quickly to serve tasty food. Despite some drawbacks, such as a darker interior and a surrounding parking lot with homeless people, Pho Lee offers a good dining experience with fresh, flavorful food that has won over many fans. The restaurant could improve by adding more seafood options, providing ice with water, and creating a livelier ambiance with music.
