Omg this literally the best pho ever.
I had a LARGE beef brisket pho. The broth is to die for. That is a good thing after a hangover. The shrimp spring rolls are a good appetizer. The chicken and shrimp fried rice was amazing. The chicken noodle soup was the best ever. He had grilled chicken. My boyfriend needed this to revived himself. Chicken soup is good for the soul. The kind that says you matter and makes you feel you're blessed.

As soon as we got in they greet us with smiles and good tea. That's why we needed after a good night. Real soup is to the body what peace is to the soul. Soup is a symphony of flavors dancing on your tongue.

Thank you for having us and serving us with warmth greeting.

I come here often and only have discovered this place about 2 weeks ago. Which should tell you a lot because I’ve been here at least 5 times! The pho is very good. I have tried spicy pho and regular beef pho and both dishes are chefs kiss.

Not to mention, the ambiance is aesthetically pleasing and the service is fast and exceptional. Definitely recommend for a wonderful pho experience.

One of the best tasting pho in the NYC metro area. Flavorful, not overly salty, hearty broth. Beef was tender and thinly sliced. Very easy to chew and eat.

There are days when the world feels like it’s pressing its knee into your chest. When emails pile up, the news cycle is a slow motion car crash, and the cold Jersey wind cuts through whatever optimism you had left.
And then thank god there’s soup.

Kung Fu Pho isn’t trying to reinvent anything. It’s not chasing clout or TikTok virality. It’s just doing what a good pho joint should do: feeding people. Nourishing them. Reminding them that life can still be simple and good.

The portions here? Absurd. Generous. Borderline heroic.
A bowl the size of a mid-sized planet arrives, steaming like a baptism. Thin slices of beef drifting in a broth so clear you can almost see your reflection in it tired eyes, sure, but suddenly hopeful. Green onion confetti, noodles with that perfectly uneven chew, a little plate of bean sprouts and basil like a small garden someone just yanked from the earth for you.

The broth tastes like someone gave a damn.
Hours of simmering, not shortcuts.
Deep, honest flavor.

You take your first sip and you remember why you go out to eat in the first place not for the Instagram, not for the check-ins, but for that quiet, almost spiritual moment when hot broth hits a cold soul and reminds it to keep going.

This isn’t fancy. It isn’t curated. It’s real.

And in a city where people pay $19 for a salad that tastes like paperwork, sitting in front of a massive bowl of pho built with care, priced with mercy feels like an act of rebellion.

Kung Fu Pho delivers exactly what you want on a day you don’t want much from the universe:
Huge portions. Deep comfort. Delicious, restorative simplicity.

If you’re in Jersey City and need something true, something grounding, something that warms you from the inside out, just sit down, order a bowl, breathe in that rising steam, and let it do what it’s done for generations:

Bring you back to life.

We were traveling thru New Jersey city in our motorhome and came across this place. Oh my! It was very nice place, I had the beef pho and it is the best I EVER HAD. Big portions and Joel was our server and was very friendly and nice guy. We can’t rave enough about the place. It’s a must stop by hidden gem. Million Stars!!!!

GOOD EXPERIENCE OVERALL. Good pho at a reasonable price ($16.99 for big bowl). Good service. Courteous staff. One wish would be having a little thicker broth in pho. Proximity to Grove St is a big plus. I would visit again.

Amazing Pho! I had the Ga Pho with Chicken Broth and the summer rolls. Both were delicious. Totally recommend this place 🌟

If you would like to get an excellent Pho soup this is the place for you.

It has great selection of the items. The food is flavorful, portions are large and the service is very efficient. The prices are also very competitive.

The atmosphere is calm with enough space for larger groups. I’d recommend this place without hesitation.
