I ordered the meat plate and it was delicious... well seasoned, and very satisfying. Had enough to take some back home. I did not try the pho this time, but based on the quality of the food I would come back to try it. Service was good, with a very attentive waiter.

Pho-get About Eating Here

Having ordered from here before, I was genuinely looking forward to dining in. Unfortunately, the experience was so off-putting that we left without eating.

We entered a nearly empty restaurant with no signage, no host, and no indication that seating was restricted in any way. The only employee visible was standing at the bar, fully absorbed in her phone. We walked past her without so much as eye contact or acknowledgment and attempted to sit at the back of the completely empty dining room.

That’s when she snapped at us — “Where do you think you’re going?! You can’t sit there! Can’t you see that?” — complete with eye-rolling and open hostility. When I asked where we could sit, she angrily pointed toward the front, never once getting off her phone.

The tone, the expression, the complete lack of professionalism — coupled with the fact that she couldn’t be bothered to stop scrolling long enough to serve paying customers — was enough for us to leave immediately.

This was incredibly disappointing, especially for a family-run local restaurant that one would hope takes pride in hospitality. We actively try to support local businesses, but respect and basic courtesy are non-negotiable. We won’t be returning.

Do better.

We stopped in since we felt like some warm pho on a cold day and it was fantastic! Great flavor and huge portions. Only thing better than the food was the service. Can’t wait to come back!

Had the veggie Pho at Pho Lang Van and it was incredible—rich, flavorful, and so fresh! Healthy, comforting, and absolutely delicious. The service was fantastic too—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Highly recommend!

The food was amazing. There was 1 server and he was on top of it. My water glass was never empty and the tea pot was always refilled before it was empty. I would definitely come back.

Food was alright but the service was poor - I asked for an extra scoop of broth and was told it would cost $9 after spending $80. I found the customer experience quite off-putting.

Mid-afternoon it's very quiet and you can easily be able to watch a show on your phone while having a great meal. They do get a dinner rush showing that many agree on the quality of food and service. You can also add an extra meat so I my first one was the house special plus an extra cut of meat

Pho Lang Van is an absolute gem! The broth is incredibly rich and flavorful — the kind that warms you to your core with every sip. Presentation is spot-on: vibrant herbs, crisp vegetables, and perfectly cooked noodles, all served in a clean and inviting setting. The B02 was a standout, beautifully balanced in taste and texture. Fresh, tasty, and made with clear attention to detail.

Special thanks to Jason, our server, who was excellent — attentive, friendly, and made the whole dining experience even better. Highly recommend!

I had stirfry shrimp and beef. My food look like I’m having soup. There’s so many water in there. The beef is like eating cardboard box never again.

My favorite pho in the city. I’ve tried a dozen others and the rare beef pho is the best i’ve had. Highly recommend.

Came here first time this afternoon. The Pho and egg rolls were delicious! Hit the spot on a cold rainy day. Service was great as well & prices are reasonable. Will definitely be back!
