Our recent visit to House of Pho in Orlando left us with mixed feelings about this Vietnamese spot. While some dishes impressed, others fell short of expectations.We kicked off our meal with the classic pho, opting for meatballs and adding tendons. The attendants were generous with their portions, and the soup itself was flavorful and comforting. A promising start to our dining experience.Next up were the summer rolls with grilled chicken, which did not disappoint. The freshness of the ingredients and the well-grilled chicken made for a satisfying appetizer.However, our enthusiasm dwindled when my husband's bu loc lac arrived. The shaking beef was disappointingly tough, and the dish lacked the flavorful punch we were hoping for. It was a letdown compared to the other dishes we tried.In terms of ambiance, House of Pho is far from fancy. The atmosphere is casual, bordering on outdated, and cleanliness was acceptable but not outstanding.Service was hit or miss, leaning more towards mediocre. While the staff were attentive to our needs, there were moments of delay and inconsistency.Overall, House of Pho offers generous portions and some tasty dishes, but the inconsistent quality and lackluster ambiance detract from the overall experience. If you're in the mood for Vietnamese cuisine and don't mind a casual setting, it's worth a try, but don't set your expectations too high.

The mi xao don thap cam (S8) was absolutely amazing and delicious. Got one with soft noodles and one with crunchy noodles. Definitely get the crunchy noodles!

It was the last dinner of our vacation in Orlando and I was craving for some pho. We went to the House of Pho and it was so delicious I thought I was in Vietnam. For appetizers we ordered traditional fry spring rolls. It was ok nothing spectacular. The next thing was Shrimp lotus root salad and that’s where thing got interesting. Sweet, savory and delicious. I almost want to order a beer to go with it because it’s just that good. We also ordered special Pho ( I mean come on why would you not get pho at House of Pho) the soup was mild and beef bone flavored rich. I didn’t add too much herbs just because I wanted to enjoy the original soup taste. That’s how good it was. Highly highly recommended for its original dishes. The chef sure knows what he is doing. Our server was friendly and helpful as well. I also want to point out the tv was showing Vietnam pop music videos and I had no idea what they were singing but beats were great. I love the place and will go back again.

Honestly the place needs some deep cleaning specially the restrooms. Service is very sloppy. Servers are sitting down at the lobby just doing nothing but looking at their phones. Never came to check on us! Food does not look like the pictures at ALL. Pho was very unflavored. Will not recommend!

I really appreciate Connie a lot! She made me feel real welcome and the customer service is great! I’ll definitely go again!
My husband and I came in on a whim to see what this little place was all about. We found hidden treasure! They have kind and helpful staff, in particular Gabby who answered our questions about the sweet little plants for purchase in their store. Today, after several weeks, I called to see if they had anymore little plants in stock for another project. Gabby answered our call, remembered us, and she sounded just as excited that we are going back today to get more. Love this little restaurant, bakery, and plant store of treasures! 10/10 recommend!

A middle aged viet man with a silver chain around his neck. SUPER rude, said my order was complex and told our group of 5 to order the exact same thing. He said "make it simple". We asked for hot water, never give it to us. Super bad experience，don't recommend it.

As an Asian. The best pho in Orlando. Warm and full of flavor. And I highly recommend S10!! I really love this kind of pan fried seafood white noodle. Just soooo good?And I really recommend it to Koreans who crave pho. The stir-fried rice noodles S10 are also really tasty. If you don't like cilantro, be sure to ask for it to be omitted!! If you forget to eat it, you get coriander soup.

Was craving some comfort food, and this was the closest one to our resort! I chose the Special Bu Dac Biet; Uber price was $16.95; which came with grilled shrimp, pork, beef, and 1 spring roll. A side of mixed vegetables with the traditional nuoc mam! It was only 10 minutes away, so when I finally dug in, my food was still warm and toasty! The meal hit the spot and was surprisingly delicious, both pork and beef were flavourful and tender, shrimp was small but had a good bite, spring roll filling was delicious and held its own even with the nuoc mam. Would order again, even try to visit here and try their pho!

Hands down my favorite pho spot. I love the #1 and the shrimp version. I only order pho or the peach bobba (which is delicious). My friend usually order the fried rice and it is tasty. I have no complaints.
