I think my favorite thing is Pho , I just want to said “ AMAZING “ . This place is kind of on a busy ,there's lots of parking and the inside of the restaurant is spacious. There's definitely take out orders a lot and dine-in too, but it makes me feel relaxed to be there.Thank you to give me feel like traditional favorsI come by at least once every time I visit the state. The staff are always so friendly!

My boyfriend, family and I absolutely adore this place! We have been going here for years and it is one of our most favorite places to go. We have had a lot of hard times in the past years and this place has brought us happiness throughout all of it. The couple that owned this place previously was exceptional in their service and put so much hard work and love into this business that you could taste it in the food. We have so much appreciation for their work and hope that they read this! Thank you for your service all of these years, I hope you two live prosperously and have some relaxation the years ahead after years of dedication to your art! And to the new owners, thank you for keeping it alive and we look forward to some yummy pho in the future ❤️

I lived in vietnam for 3 years and been to quite a few American viet restaurants, and I have to say Phoenix was one of the best! I highly recommend!!
Went there for lunch today and really enjoy the foods and the service. Bun Bo Hue was just phenomenal, asked for more noodles because the broth was just perfect.Restaurant was super clean and super nice service.Bravo
I lived in NYC for 12 years so I have high expectations when it comes to food. I've had a lot of phenomenal pho in my day. Phoenix is quality food in an unassuming location. Have been searching all over the general area--Trumbull to Bridgeport, Monroe, Shelton, Derby--for decent pho. I always come back to Phoenix. Their broth is flavorful, their portion size is excellent. Spring rolls are delicious. (I do however think 2 rolls per order is a little stingy but because the quality is so good I can accept it). This pho is so good I drive 25 minutes both ways for it.

Entire staff is very friendly. This restaurant is spotless clean. We've had several menu selections over time and the quality is always superb! Everything fresh and well seasoned.

Phoenix Vietnamese Cuisine Restaurant is located in the ShopRite plaza where I always go grocery shopping at. I have been passing by this restaurant for years and I decided to try it out. I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone and try different cuisines. I have always wanted to try a Steamed Bao Bun so I decided to give them a try. I ordered Pork Bao Buns and the cost was eleven dollars which wasn't a bad price. I waited about fifteen minutes for them to come out. While I was waiting, the owner came over and offered me a free water. Which was really nice of her and great customer service. As I opened the container. I wasn't expecting the buns to be so big. They always looked smaller in pictures I've seen on the internet. I finally tried the Bao Bun and I had mixed feelings about it. The vegetables were crunchy and pickled just right but the spices on the meat were over powering for me. It was my first time tasting it so maybe I have to try try it again. The bun was mildly sweet and had a great texture. The customer service was spot on and the staff we're very friendly. The three stars is not for the customer service but rather the food and I will definitely be back to try the Fried Chicken.

This place has always been my boyfriend and I our late night date restaurant when we want something close by. Before the new owners took place, this place was absolutely amazing! Their food, especially the pho and fried rice just 10/10 recommend. Now my boyfriend and I went there after the new owners took over, and we ordered the special combination pho with extra egg, and no need to bring out the extra plate of veggies that come with the pho - they did not understand the extra request. And the pho… it was saltier than normal and the pho didn’t come with as much stuff as usual. And the price has also came up from previous. So disappointed at the change.

Placed an order for take out. When I got home and opened my pho… They gave me raw cold uncooked beef. Blood everywhere ….. mixed in with everything else. See pics. This place is unfit for business. Unbelievable…. Charged $25 dollars. Will dispute debit transaction. I’m still mortified…?
