About Pho Ca Dao

Pho Ca Dao is a cash-only restaurant celebrated for its delicious pho. Known as a hole-in-the-wall spot on University Ave, it features a small menu with limited options, including egg rolls and drinks. The pho is consistently praised, with some customers even claiming it is the best pho they have had in the twin cities. The restaurant has a casual "mom and pop" atmosphere, offering generous portions of vegetables, broth, and lime in their pho. Many diners enjoy the rich and flavorful broth, as well as the thin noodles. While some reviews mention the pricing as higher than expected for the food and service, others appreciate the affordability and freshness of the ingredients. Customers remark on the quick service and polite staff, making Pho Ca Dao a must-visit for those seeking authentic pho. Despite its barebones service, the quality of the food continues to draw in pho lovers.

I have been going to this place as a teen with my dad for years! I lived right down the street, and it was always a lovely treat to come get some very delicious broth and a nice hot bowl of Pho. Recently unfortunately they no longer serve the XL bowl, yet I still find it worth going just for the flavors! Now and days I go with my fiancé, and today was the last time I’ll be going.

Ordered the special pho it was decent but too sweet of a broth for me. Perfect for the kids but I don’t like my pho too sweet of a base broth. Since I’ll be adding hoisin sauce to it. The restaurant is on the tighter side pretty small and back of the restaurant openly was storage everywhere makes it look messy. Service was on the slower end bc it seems like a family own with two server. Menu was limited option.
