“I was very intrigued by this place since they had both pho AND banh mi. I had both and I think they were fine, but probably below average compared to other places I've been to. For me, since I don't eat Vietnamese food that often, I find it much better to just stop by Eden center when in northern VA. There you can get the best pho, banh mi and whatever else you want in the same area.“
“I love the food, tasted authentic. Place is clean, service is fast, owner is friendly. I wished the pho is served piping hot though. The presence of 2 robots added bonus point. At one time, 1 of them said that she can't be late for work, she could get fired, when the 2 robots were in a traffic jam near kitchen entrance. Their names are Rice and Noodle.“
“This place was great. The service was good, the food came out fast and was really good. The only thing was that the noodles got soggy really fast. The banh mi was good. It was big and filled pretty well too. Overall a very good pho place and will probably come again sometime.“
“This used to be my weekly Sunday pho spot back when I lived in MD. Even though I now live in DC, I still come back for their cold cut sandwiches and lemonade. The banh mi number 1 is delicious. Their pho and bo kho are also tasty. Service is always friendly and fast.“
“This place is delicious and has wonderful service. I got the oxtail pho and my daughter got the fried rice with a strawberry nutella crepe for dessert. The broth on my pho was some of the best ever. The basil and bean sprouts were some of the freshest I have seen at a pho spot. This place is wonderful - you can get great pho, crepes, and teas all in one spot. The staff were super friendly.“
“The pho is tasty and the ingredients are fresh and flavorful. Unfortunately, I had takeout because I was in a rush, but I returned a week later and it was just as good in house as my take out experience. Great food, you just have to try it.“
“Only 5 mins walk from our home but we always skipped this place because of the past reviews. Today we decided to give it a try and we all agreed the pho is better than at other pho places we normally go to. We’ll be coming here more often now.“
“So glad we found this little gem in Rockville! We ordered the chicken bahn mi, rice noodle bowl, and chicken pho. All deliciously made with quality ingredients. The flavors were delicately well-balanced with fresh trimmings and so many choices of extras to add to your pho. We didn’t order the bubble tea because we didn’t see until the end of our meal, but we’ll definitely be back to order them to pair them with a couple of bahn mis. The atmosphere of the restaurant is cute and cozy tables and booths. Service is prompt and attentive! No more driving to Fairfax! Woop-Woop!!! ❤️❤️❤️“
“We have eaten here for years. Great food and excellent service. Seeing the owners son grow up in the restaurant is so nice and he is very friendly.Vegetarian options: Salads, veggie soup and noodles dishes.Parking: The restaurant is located in an outdoor mall so there is plenty of parking.Kid-friendliness: Very family friendly and kids love the soup.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is ada compliant.“
“We came here on a cold and rainy afternoon and as always loved the Pho! We ordered the #1 pho which has thin eye round steak and noodles. The meat was perfect and not fatty which is what I like. The broth on its own has great flavor and you have all the traditional sauces and things to add to make it your own. We also ordered their grilled pork roll which is very god and features a small crisp stick that has this great crunch with a rice wrapper and a piece of grilled pork. The service staff was very friendly and checked in on us from time to time. The interior was very clean and has plenty of seating. Definitely willl be coming again!“
“I love pike kitchen! The vegan bulgogi bibimbap is the best, I am excited to try the vegan dosirak next. They handled an issue with my uber eats order very professionally and kindly. The issue was on ubers end but uber refused to refund me (surprisingly) so Pike Kitchen made it right instead. I really appreciated their understanding of the situation. That level of customer service inspires me to order from them more often for sure. I hope they can expand their veggie options as they are so delicious, healthy and fresh.“
“You would surely miss this place if you weren't looking for a pho place or this place specifically; it's next to the big fire station and to the side of the gas station. No frills family-owned pho. They got a very basic menu but you'll find pho and some staple viet rice dishes. Add some beer and wine to your purchase, if you fancy. We ordered cha gio and two pho's (one for me and one for my kiddos). The pho broth came out piping hot (thank you) and the meats were tender; I wish they would've put more meat than what me and the kiddos got. Their pho is one-size only. Place was a bit dark but clean. The son was very friendly and saw that my kiddos had accidentally dropped their utensils and didn't get mad/annoyed, but rather smiled and quickly brought out another one.“
“Absolutely love this restaurant. My family has become a frequent customers. With that being said they know exactly what to bring. I recommend the P9 and P12. The food matches lots of dietary restrictions such as vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian, etc. Not only is the food great at this restaurant so is the quality of the restaurant it’s clean and comfortable. Absolutely love this restaurant and recommend it.“
“Pho 81 is my go-to pho restaurant in Montgomery County MD and has been for years. I've tried a few others but they don't seem to compare! I'm a beef pho fan myself, and I typically go for a brisket pho with all the extra toppings. The broth is delicious, and the meat is always perfectly cooked. I've had the chicken pho a few times as well, and it's also very flavorful. The noodles are a great texture and the portions are huge for the price. I like to get crispy spring rolls as well. The outside is really crispy and flakey, and the inside has meat and a variety of veggies, not just cabbage. They're a great addition to a bowl of delicious pho. The restaurant is large and clean and you can always find a table. The staff are hardworking and kind, and typically the food comes out quickly. Take out is great here too, and I never have any issues with the order.“
“This restaurant is well lit, clean, and has lots of seating. Employees are welcoming and the atmosphere is very relaxed. It's the perfect place to enjoy a quiet dinner. I had the special bun bo hue and the lime juice. The soup was very clean tasting and the meat was tender. Lime juice paired well with the soup. I will be back to try more items.“
“I moved here in 1987, and that is how long I have been going to this place.Staff: lovely staff. Almost the same people, they age as I age, but every time I come back to the area from deployments, they are here. Great people.Food: The quality of the broth hasn't changed much. However, the last few times I was here, it seems a little less flavorful. It's still good, but the aroma was missing.Atmosphere: tables are always filled. Good traffic. But no matter how crowded it gets, the food always comes out in a timely manner.“
“The service at this restaurant is outstanding! The staff is friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The hot and sour soup is a must-try, with its tangy and spicy flavors. The grilled pork is juicy and perfectly cooked. The brisket is tender and flavorful, and the fried egg rolls are crispy and delicious. The chicken and shrimp dishes are also excellent. A definite favorite!“
