Excellent food, spotless restaurant (as in clean), nice staff & quick service. Forgot to mention, the best pho I've ever had! You'll love this place.

I orderd two beef dishes and a soup.The beef broccoli was bland but just okay and edible, thanks to the rice that came along. Still, it wasn't worth the price tag of $23.00. The fried or grilled beef vermicelli was noticeably bad. The sauce was cooked okay.Then, a few tough pieces of small beef shreds, that were too dry to have been cooked with the sauce, were thrown into the sauce. Days old mint leaves, were thrown into the mix too.On the other side of the container lay the vermicelli and a some salad shavings.In my opinion, that dish couldn't possibly command the $21 price tag.The last order was the chicken dumpings soup. It was the smallest cup, containing the smallest excuse of a soup. It had three small dumplings stuffed with something too crushed to be identifiable as chicken. It was $10.00 nonetheless.I wouldn't go out of my way to berate a family eatery in any town unless it was deserving of the this mention.I hope they straighten their act and prove me wrong in the months to come.

There's a first-time "pho" everything! Tonight was my very first time trying, Pho! I was in the area and saw Pho Boston located in the plaza I was shopping in and decided to give it a whirl! I was kind of in a rush, but thankfully, as soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted and brought over to a booth. We were given paper to-go menus, and to be quite honest, it was a little confusing and overwhelming being a first-timer. There were so many options that all kind of sounded the same. Our waiter came over and helped me order, but I decided to go basic, and I went with the shrimp pho. Even though it sounds basic, it was full of flavor! The cilantro and onions in the soup really gave an extra taste to the broth. It was served with a side dish of bean sprouts, limes, and jalapeños. The table had hot sauce and chili sauce on it to add in as well if wanted. This establishment is more of a takeout/ quick meal kind of environment, but I did like the fish tank in the corner by my table! It added some color and fun to my pho experience! I did enjoy my soup, but it was a bit pricey. I'm glad I got to at least try it and hopefully learn other ways to order it in the future.

Getting a bit greedy? Yes, prices have gone up everywhere, including restaurants. But almost 100% price hike since 5 years ago (50% hike since 2 years ago). That’s crossed the line, and unfortunately I think a lot of people will be thinking twice before spending $19 on a bowl of pho.Quality and quantity seems to have remained relatively consistent, but the price gouging is enough reason for me not to return. I understand when protein prices skyrocket and you’re forced to increase prices because that is the main portion of the meal, but we’re still talking about a bowl of broth and noodles with a few slices of meat here.Substitute fried rice for your white rice on your rice plate? $6!Latest menu attached. Hope they reconsider these prices, especially when there are a lot of other good options around for pho. Would hate to see them go out of business after all these years.

Food was delicious. Soup bowl is huge - best shared with another person.I had the beef tomato and pineapple. It was fantastic.Dietary restrictions: Our friend who was with us is allergic to onions. They left them out of her meal. Her husband's meal had onions and they were very willing to take it back ane replace it so they could share. We asked for no cilantro and were happy with our meal.Parking: It's a storefront restaurant in a shopping plaza with a large parking lot.

I normal go to diffrent pho place was recommended Pho Boston so I drove out of way to try . Menu confusing ordered in lobby take out asked multiple questions said i didnt want any tripe or tendon . Was told #22 which i did thinking it was what i want . Got extra chicken in mine and extra shrimp in wifes dish. Got home to tendon and little rare meat no veggies hosin and siracha in same container both mixed so you couldnt just use one or other. And broth flavorless called to explain got wrong order she told me i should have gotten #23 not 22. I even left 4.00 tip on takeout woman just laughed and said i ordered wrong .......

And this takes the cake .... Ty for horrible experience. 55.00 for 2 lowsey biwls of flavorless soup... Ty for nothing Pho Boston will be sure to unfriend person that recommend it.Vegetarian options: Flavorless

Order a pho ga, and shrimp tempura which was very delicious and authentic but just a bit on the pricier side

This is my favorite place to visit when I need a comforting meal. I've been coming here for months and the food is always great; the service is excellent. During the week its pretty peaceful, the flow of customers is consistent. On the weekends it's quite busy. Do yourself a favor and come check it out.

I really enjoy Pho Boston. Authentic Vietnamese cuisine next door to the top Asian grocery store in the area.

My family and I used to come here when I was a kid. This is where I first discovered pho. And now, my girlfriend and I come to this place almost every Sunday after church. Pho Boston never disappoints! The pho, spring rolls, and stir fry dishes are all so delicious! And the service is second to none. Highly recommended to anyone wanting a good bowl of Pho in the Hartford area. :)
