Stopped in for late lunch and noticed the sign said they serve beef stew every day. I can not say enough about this stew. I wish I took a picture for y'all. Ample portion of brisket, beautifully peeled and chopped carrots and rice noodles in an incredible flavorful stew. I knew I was taking a risk not ordering what I had come in for (pho), but didn't realize the real risk is now I crave this stew. My kid also got a shrimp pho which was perfect. Because I liked my stew so much I ordered one to go for my other kid at home and he also loved it.

Lovely restaurant with good food ,good service and a nice menu with fair prices. Food is prepared with quality fresh ingredients and delicious. Restaurant is on the small size so seating may be limited during busy times . Highly recommend this restaurant for either dine in or take out. Plenty of free parking. They take pride in their food and service.

Staff is on top of the busy pace of the restaurant. The food comes out fast, and it is perfectly prepared, and totally unpretentious. Fresh simple and delicious. This is a real diamond in the rough.

bought some chicken pho to go. specifically asked for some chili paste on the side and said it’s not siracha. the person on the phone assured me they know what i mean and would definitely include it. when i got home all i had in the bag was siracha.. i would expect this from a Mcdonald’s, not a “4.7” star vietnamese restaurant.

Pho-nom1nal truly lives up to its name! The servers are amazing, but Donte really stands out. He’s funny, welcoming, and always has a smile on his face, which makes the whole dining experience even better. The food is absolutely top-notch—fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. If you’re ever looking for great Vietnamese food, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

Definitely one of the best pho's I have ever had. It was so delicious. This was the first time my mom had pho and normally she doesn't eat much. However, she basically annihilated the pho. The staff is amazing. It's been a while since we had really good service.

Cute restaurant. Very clean and great service. Not a massive menu, which is cool, too. I don't like to have too many choices. Basic phó options. I wish they would add a bowl with tendon + tripe, is my only request. Thanks for the good lunch.

I love Pho and have had it in many places. Phonominal makes some of the best pho in the valley. Went there last night and we had the chicken and beef steak pho. All were excellent! The broth was clear and had flavor depth, indicative of thorough and long cooking process. The proteins were generous and sliced thick. The sprouts, jalapeños and basil were very fresh and flavorful. They had plenty of Sriracha and Hussain sauce on each table. I also tried the pork benh mi for the first time. It was excellent and flavorful. The bread was very fresh and crunchy. The different ingredients texture and flavors complemented each other making an awesome sandwich. It was like a flavor explosion. This can be my new go-to sandwich.

Service was excellent even though they were crowded. Restaurant and tables were very clean. And the prices were very reasonable. We will be back!
