When I was a kid, I once hit my toe against the door and cried, it bled, I cried harder.
Anyways to the actual review, this place is nice and neat and good looking for the area it’s in. I like the fish ? that they got on display and the customer service was pretty good. We got seated and the menus were nice as well and they actually have a pretty good sized selection. The prices aren’t that expensive and for price to taste it’s pretty good. I liked it. I really liked it with spicy sauce and feel like it tasted better. The broth was good and so were the noodles. I feel like the atmosphere is a tiny bit weird because it’s a bit darker but it’s cool.
In the picture that was kinda half eaten as I forgot to take a pic at the start (it looked better) and you can kinda see the lines on the edges of how much it was filled. Imagine more beef and more soup and less red.
Overall good for price to quality Tasty and filling Amazing water taste Loved the spicy jar they had Cool customer service Cheap prices Would come again potentially

We were in Vietnam in June. Based on the traditional food we enjoyed there, this food was on the same level. Great job Pho Ru! I saw the same kindness from the waitress that we experienced in Ho Chi Minh City. My wife now wants to try everything on the menu and that's a quote. The Pho was Pho-nominal! We enjoyed the fall off the bone rib and the spring rolls.

I was half way eating and found hair in my pho. I don’t know if there was anything else in my bowl but I’m done with this spot. I felt sick for awhile and all the owner said was. I give you another bowl. No apologies and try to say it’s probably my hair. Are you serious!! I don't recommend this place.

Very simple menu. Wish they have spring rolls and xl pho. Their pho is awesome, the broth tastes clean and fresh. Broth doesn't taste like yesterday's. Must try if your in town.

I have been looking for the best pho in Sacramento, and I think I finally found one. Pho soup made of quality ingredients and was so aromatic and flavorful. I only tried pho, but I am definitely coming back to try other dishes. One downside was that it cost me almost 20 dollars, including tips for one pho soup.

Absolutely best pho I have had in Sac. Flank steak served on the bone is a nice touch and the establishment is very clean compared to some of the others

It's an older joint but the staff was rude and they don't listen. My nephew ordered shrimp noodle soup but they didn't understand him ( he speaks low in public, 7 years old) so I asked my nephew did you want chicken or shrimp, number 8 or number 9 he said 9 but they brought chicken. The girl took it back then the lady comes over and starts to argue how we said chicken. I let her know we said number 9. Looked on menu number 9 was the shrimp. At the end of the meal instead of taking the money with the bill they made us go to the counter to pay ( walking on a very wet floor, they mopped around us). Bad experience food was ok.

Pho Ru truly exceeded our expectations in every aspect of our dining experience. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, got to love mom and pop shops with style. The attentive and friendly service was a plus.Now, let's talk about the food – it was simply amazing! We opted for the pho combo, and it was one of the best I've ever had. The soup had depth and flavor, and the inclusion of the bonus rib bone added an extra layer of happiness. Additionally, we tried the green fried rice, which was a delightful surprise. Its fresh and vibrant flavors made it a perfect complement to our meal.

Pho Ru offers a decent dining experience for those in the mood for some hearty Vietnamese food. The Phở here is moderate, not the absolute best I've had, but certainly satisfying. It's full of flavor, with the broth being the standout element. The service is standard, nothing exceptional but also nothing to complain about. The staff are polite and quite efficient. The location of the restaurant isn't particularly noteworthy, but it's comfortable enough for a casual meal. The big surprise was the large Phở order, which came with a free beef bone. It's a unique touch that I appreciated and a great way to add extra depth to the soup. All in all, while Pho Ru might not stand out in all aspects, it's a option for a tasty, fulfilling meal.
This place is a very good spot. Very well rounded in all the food. The portions are good and very reasonable for a dinner date or just lunch out with the girls. My kids like it, that’s how I found out about it. The waiters understand the orders well and are one point with the orders and food.

Bad service, never offered or brought us drinks . Large pho didn’t have enough broth . The floors are so dirty. They charge you for to go boxes without telling you. Don’t bring your kids here the music videos that keep replying on their TV is inappropriate and the location of the TV is impossible not to catch your eye. Won’t be coming back.

The Pho was ok. Not bad but I've had better. The lady waiting tables was very rude with customers. I seen her get into a verbal argument with a customer who was buying food for a homeless person. The lady employee was very rude and handled this situation very unprofessional. Also they charged me .50 for each Togo container. The Pho should have been $13.95 plus tax. She rang me up to $17.95. when I asked why so much more, she said it was . 50 for Togo container. Still the math did not add up, but seeing how rude she was to other customers I went ahead and just paid and left.
