Hot pho on a cold winter’s night at this pho restaurant really hit the spot. I had a hard time choosing between their special pho (with a combination of different proteins) or their pho with short rib. I went with my server’s recommendation of the pho with short rib and I was not disappointed.
The presentation of the bowl 🥣 is great! Just look at that big bone with the short rib and a whole plate of fixings to customize your experience! The broth was super flavorful. The noodles thin and light. And the meat of the short rib perfectly cooked.
As for the restaurant’s atmosphere. It had a lively vibe. They were playing bouncy techno music. My personal taste is a more relaxed zen vibe at my pho restaurants, but the lively vibe did not detract from my experience.
Overall, a really great experience, and I will be back again.

SO AMAZING! I have eaten here 3 times and the consistency in the taste of the food has always been great. Pho is so really delicious and flavorful, the staff is friendly/attentive - it's just a great experience. Whenever I need Pho, this is my go to place!

Placed an order an hour before pickup and wasn’t ready until about 10-15 minutes after. What is the point in setting a pickup time if it’s just going to be ready whenever they get it done? And food was not hot at all. Frustrating

Service is usually reasonable and efficient. Some employees are rude and inconsiderate, as a previous food industry worker...they need to learn to be more professional and mindful of first come first serve basis

Great food but blasting night club music for dine in seems little off. Hope the volume is down and music is dine-friendly next time 🙏

I visited here for the first time on a certain day in November 2025. I ordered a Crispy Roasted Pork from $5 Special Dishes and Pho Bowl + Drink from $12 Lunch Special. Both of them were really good and volumy. The staff was also very kind and helpful.

What a Gem for Vietnamese Food! Whenever we're in the neighborhood we make this a much needed pho and bahn mi recharge spot! The broths on all the soups have a nice rich deep flavor. Vegetables are fresh and crisp. Bread has that nice crumble on.

PhoLicious in Bloomingdale is a gem for authentic Vietnamese comfort food. The pho broth is rich and aromatic, the banh mì fresh with perfectly crisp bread, and service consistently friendly. Vegetarian options are excellent. Portions lean modest, but quality is top-notch. Clean, modern space — ideal for casual dine-in or take-out.

Very good Vietnamese restaurant in NW Chicago suburb of Bloomingdale. Ordered summer rolls, combination pho and fish patty banh mi. All spot on delicious. They are very popular and got quite busy so come in early for lunch or dinner. Polite and quick service. Ample parking. Great and clean ambiance.
Good food for good price! Brought my sister here, we left with full stomach and full heart ! Fast service even in Saturday dinner rush, good introduction to pho, I am now a Vietnamese food lover. I have been living under a rock thank u pholiscous 👍👍

First time here and we had their lunch special. My family and I ordered each a bowl of their Pho with sliced ribeye. It was phenomenal. I have to say, best Pho around the area. What was disappointing was the service. They did not check on us once. Very relaxed staff in my opinion. No urgency in hospitality. Also, their public bathrooms do not have a changing table. So a heads up for families who intend to come with their infants.

One of the best banh mi sandwiches I have had. I had to give the pork meatball (B7) a try and the taste was delicious. Busy late lunch hour at 2pm on Saturday but we enjoyed ourselves. We would come back again and try other menu items. Great for family meal and small groups too. We will return!

Only gets 4 stars because one of the workers seemed so cranky and irritated. other than that i loved this place, great food and done super fast. even the plain pho is amazing. i’m overall happy with the whole place and enjoyed it very much. this place also isn’t too kid friendly, no changing table, no kids menu so i wouldn’t recommend much for kids.
