“Went last night for girls night and had a blast!We were greeted and seated immediately upon arrival by a very lovely hostess. She took extra time to go over the most popular dishes and gauged what we would most likely enjoy.The Thai tea is light and refreshing and I recommend you try it. I had the rare beef Pho and omg, I have enough leftovers for at least two more meals. The food was fantastic and the service was perfect.The atmosphere is well...comfortable and quirky.We were given time after our meal to catch up and laugh. By the time we left we knew we'd be back for more!!!“
“I'm blown away by the amazing experience my friends and I shared here. So. Much. Fun. The food...there aren't words to do it justice. I had to force myself to stop eating! And, still brought home a large leftover portion. The flavors burst! The appearance/presentation: is beauty in a bowl! The staff is so friendly, kind, considerate, sincere...there's so much more I could rave about these beautiful souls! Dedicated to their craft, for sure.Tip them very well, please?Worth every penny.You'll leave, wanting to schedule your next visit already. It's just that good.The egg rolls are sensational! The Pho...give them all a try!Dietary restrictions: They do their utmost to accommodate. So many options available.Please, always check with staff for cross-contamination? It's on you, if you fail to advocate for yourself.Kid-friendliness: Family-friendly atmosphere.Eclectic background music ambiance.“
“Easily the best boba we’ve had in buffalo. You can trust this review because we currently live in DC, a boba hot spot on par with Boston and NYC. Most people in buffalo have no idea what real good boba is supposed to taste like (TBH lol).We got the matcha and taro boba, and avocado smoothie. Matcha is good, and taro is best one in the area. The boba is a good consistency. It is medium soft on the softness scale, which is perfectly fine. Less experienced boba drinkers assume boba has to be extra soft and gooey, but it is actually a store and drinker preference. Tapioca boba can be super gooey OR more stiff jelly like, with a clear line between jelly like and stale, and this shop leans towards gooey but only slightly so that it is a medium soft and still chewy; right in the safe zone as most people prefer this. The smoothie was authentic as it gets for viet style… extremely nostalgic for me when I had it lots as a kid.Pro tip: adjust the sugar as needed. 50-70% sugar is the norm in the boba scene but most Americans and boba beginners may want 70-100% sweetness. We got 50%. Pay to enjoy the texture and flavor, not the sugar! Having good taste even at 50% sugar further demonstrates the strong boba fundamentals that this place has. No hiding behind sugar!Update: Went there a second time and the quality is consistent with our first time!“
“Wait staff are very attentive but not intrusive. Service is excellent. I had beef pho, it was a very good bowl of pho. I also had the summer roll that was excellent. I definitely recommend. It also looks like they have a nice bar and huge assortment of wines. It would be a nice place to take a date for a bite and a few drinks.“
“This place has an absolutely ginormous menu of options and typically that would make me take a pause on how good it might actually be. But everything I tried and everything my friends ordered looked and tasted delicious!I got the spring rolls as well as their Chicken Pad Thai, and both of them were quite delicious and well portioned. The peanut sauce that came with the spring rolls tasted fresh and really helped the flavor pop.Definitely looking forward to a return visit just to try many more things on the menu.“
“The food is always fantastic when I come here. Such great flavors. Everything is super fresh. Always try something new each time. The server Diamond was very attentive and helpful when asked about a menu item. Kudos to a great team. There usually isn't any wait to be seated.Vegetarian options: Most dishes can be made with vegetables or tofu.Dietary restrictions: On the menu I noticed you had some gluten free options. Just a heads up.... Would not dine in if you have a sever nut allergy, as many of their dishes have crushed peanuts.“
“Fantastic take out, delivered in a timely fashion - steaming hot!And very fresh! I had grilled pork with vermicelli and it was fantastic (huge portions) -my husband had Beef Pho and he loved it. We will be ordering from here from now on it will be our go to Vietnamese restaurant.“
“Food is always delicious here. I've been here for lunch and dinner, we've also had food delivered to us and we've never had an issue. Lots of vegetarian/vegan and gluten free options. The only problem is it's ALWAYS cold in there and dark. Lunch, dark. Dinner, dark. I'm not that old but it is DARK in there. I'll still continue to go back!“
“Bánh mì is so good!!!I've been a few times and gotten different varieties, and they've all been absolutely wonderful.I feel there's a lot of mediocre bánh mì in this area (several places don't even offer pâte), but this restaurant is not one of those. If you have a craving for a banh mi sandwich I very highly recommend!Staff is very friendly, nice seating area with lots of room.“
“Came here for a quick lunch before heading back to Ontario. I got to say the pho was very authentic, the broth was very clear and full of flavour. There was a lot of meat and noodles in the dish. If you are looking for a place that does full service, this is not the place for you. You have to get your own tea or water and go to the front counter to pay. I didn't mind much about that part, but for anyone who does this isn't a place for you. Staff was friendly there and the portion was decent. Will definitely come back if I am in town again.“
“Sauces were fabulous!Portions were great!Dishes were delivered exactly as you asked for!!We did not expect such generous portions for our main courses so yippee lunch for the next day!We will be back!Vegetarian options: All Authentic dishes from a few regions! Very accomplished preparations. Yum!Get the General Taos Tofu!!!! Delicious,tender but not mushy!Have not found this prepared so beautifully since 1980’s NYC.Go take the family!“
“I have a lot of food allergies that often make it difficult for me to eat out. Thai Orchid Cafe was wonderful with taking the time to ask additional questions to clarify what I can and can’t eat. You can also tell that their ingredients are very fresh and was overall super delicious!!“
“Let's start with service. The young was very helpful and knowledgeable explaining the menu.Menu has some bright, colorful pictures with hot spice indicators.Service was fast for items made by hand.Very flavourful with different sizes of bowl.I'll be a regular for Pho.“
“I ordered from Pho Cafe two days in a row and I must say the food is seriously delicious! Fresh and ready for pick up! I had the beef pho and have to rate it a perfect 10! Very impressed and I will be coming here for a very long time!! Thank you very much!!!!!“
“Very good my first visit when I ordered the vegetarian Pho. Upon the second visit I got the beef pho and there was a hair in my pho and I ordered the friend banana dessert and my ice cream was freezer burned. They immediately took it off my bill without any problems so I would recommend!“
“We have been coming here since the original location on Main Street. So happy they opened up this spot on Pearl. It is a fantastic place to take out of town friends and show off what Buffalo is really about..fantastic atmosphere, kind staff and outstanding food.“
