“Love the food definitely returning 🥘“

“My first time having their food which came highly recommended from a picky foodie, like myself! We did takeout which was fast and the young lady was extremely nice. The vegetable rice, sweet chili wings and shrimp rolls were delectable! Not one complaint! I will definitely be back!“

“Got a Pork Banh Mi at SaiGon Noodle Kitchen today. Absolutely delicious - light and very flavorful! I look forward to returning!“

“I had a delicious lunch of lemongrass tofu vermicelli. It was seasoned well and there was a generous amount of tofu. My friend had a pork bahn mi sandwich that she said was great. I will definitely come back!“

“Pics do not do this food justice at all!! This is by far the best pho i’ve had in years. The flavor of the broth was amazing, the ingredients were all fresh, and the homemade chili oil was such a good addition. So happy we tried it out, we’ll definitely be repeat customers!“

“Cuối tuần lại ghé Vietnam Restaurant & Café, gọi một tô phở bò tái nóng hổi kèm ly cà phê sữa đá thơm lừng. Ăn xong uống thêm ngụm cà phê là thấy tỉnh táo, cả ngày thoải mái hẳn. Quán ấm cúng, đồ ăn thì chuẩn vị quê nhà“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Maison Lotus, and it was an unforgettable experience! The food was absolutely amazing, featuring a diverse array of Vietnamese dishes that showcased authentic flavors with a modern twist. Each dish was a delightful journey that left my taste buds wanting more. The charm of the restaurant is evident from the moment you step inside. The well-curated space creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the bar area is simply spectacular. The unique themed décor, particularly the stunning wallpapers, masterfully complements the storytelling aspect of the dining experience. It adds a silent yet powerful narrative that enhances the entire ambiance. The prices were perfect for the quality and creativity of the food, and the portion sizes were generous, ensuring no one leaves hungry! Hats off to the team at Maison Lotus for creating such a wonderful dining destination. I can't wait to return and explore more of their menu!“

“Delicioso , se come muy bien .“

“Delicious Sushi! Loved the vegetable drunken noodles and the veggie fried rice! Huge menu to choose from! Will definitely be back soon!“

“This is currently the only Vietnamese spot in the mall, located upstairs by the food court. It’s a canteen style setup—you order at the counter and help yourself to condiments at the self serve station, so don’t wait for a server. They’ll give you a number and you’ll pick up your food when it’s ready. I tried the Short Ribs Deluxe Pho and the Banh Mi, both were pretty good, and the short rib portion was huge, I even had to take some home.“

“First time here (2/22/25) and it was great. I had beef Pho and my wife had shrimp and chicken fried rice. Both were fantastic. Her fried rice was one of the best I’ve had in a really long time. I’ll def be back for that. The pho broth was great. The only thing different here than other places I’ve had Pho was that they didn’t give me mint with the jalapeño and bean sprouts. The service was a little slow as they were pretty busy but the owner was very apologetic. Almost too much but it was greatly appreciated because normally you don’t get that type of treatment. Even though the food came out slow he was top notch with keeping my water filled which is my primary must when it comes to restaurant service. And although it was just him working the front of the house he was serving everybody so attentively. And I think his wife was the only person in the back of the house. They did a wonderful job. Also that gave s a small salad that was quite tasty. I don’t know what kind of dressing it was but it was pretty darn good. Oh and we had the veggie spring rolls and chicken kabobs, both also good.“

“very pleasant restaurant, good food and service.“

“I highly recommend the fried shrimp banh mi, the beef stew, and a side of fries with spicy ketchup!“

“Delicious and full-bodied Thai iced tea! And tasty bahn mi.“

“This is a great Vietnamese restaurant in Philly. I would recommend chicken knuckles to try. They have a large menu and most of it good. The drinks selection is also big to try from along with non alcoholic drinks. This is one place I saw sugarcane juice in Philly.“

“We always have excellent service & Stellar food! This is my absolute favorite Vietnamese restaurant and I have eaten at them all. My favorite are Hong Kong wonton soup & Vermicelli special.“

“If you are in the mood for Pho and/or another Vietnamese dish, you MUST check this place out. You will not be disappointed in any dish. Fresh ingredients, competitive pricing, and family owned. Give it a try!“

“Really loved this boba spot. It’s super clean, calming, and has a fresh vibe that just feels good to be in. The staff were friendly and quick. I got the signature drink super smooth and not too sweet. Everything just felt well-made and thoughtful. Definitely a new go-“

“Just finished a bowl of beef shoulder for and a side of extra noodles. It was so wonderful. The broth in the pho was really flavorful and aromatic. The noodles will cook perfectly as well as the meat. This is definitely a place you should stop off for.“

“Decent Vietnamese food in Philly city center. I really like the taste of their congee, I think it is because of the ginger. However, I don't really like the dồi. Bún thịt nướng is okay and portion is huge. This bánh bèo is probably the best I have had, but homemade is still better. It took them forever to bring this out tho and no communication about how long this would take was mads.“

“Highly recommend. The food is delicious. Called it in and easy pickup for takeout with covid safety measures in place (no dine-in at the moment). Pre-covid, we enjoyed dining in. One of favorite local restaurants!“

“Charlie is an amazing dude! It was a busy saturday night but he handled our own blunder and re-prepared our soup for us. The food is absolutely delicious and at a good price. Please come here if you’re looking for good service and food. Thanks again Charlie, go sixers!“

“Yum yum 😋 thanks to the friendly folks“

“I love this place. There are super accommodating. I have a shellfish allergy and they always are good at explaining to me. What is in the food and with the foods made with with no problem and everybody is really kind one of my favorite Vietnamese places. 😊“

“Food is great! Love that is byob too. Only thing is I am asked multiple times while I am actively chewing food if I was done by the wait staff 😬. This is after I explained when ordering I eat slow due disability also. Other than that it is one of my favorite restaurants!“

“We LOVE Bu’a Loy and are so excited that they are opening once again. Incredibly fresh and delicious food, warm customer service, great for relaxed dining in their spotless restaurant. They are gem!“

“Very beautiful venue and good service“

“We finally went to the new Pho Wayne yesterday. It was DELICIOUS. The flavor of the Pho. Muah! They had several weekly specials, including the Beef Pho, that were only $9.95! Amazing deal. We also got the Crab Rangoon that my daughter devoured. We want to go again today. I’ve been craving Pho Wayne since I woke up, but they don’t open until Noon. 😭. Feels almost impossible to have to wait for another three hours. I could eat this everyday and with the specials, I probably can. I saw the comments on the high prices for “non-special” items, but honestly feel it’s in line with what’s charged at similar places nearby. We ❤️ Pho Wayne. *I have not been incentivized for this review, but would happily take free or discounted Pho*. 😬

Update. I did go again today and the Pho was as delicious as it was yesterday. I was going to get the grilled beef Banh Mi to go but I made the BIG mistake of ordering the Shrimp Summer Roll. A TON of lettuce, a few smaller shrimp, and noodles. I should have taken Audrey’s review to heart. No cilantro or herbs. Flavorless. I am a bit annoyed I spent $9 on this. I could have gotten the sandwich for this. Thoroughly disappointed in this item. Had to change my rating from a 5 to a 4.

Yet, I will return.

Update. I did return. 3rd time in 4 days. Had a crazy day yesterday or I would have been there 4 days out of 4. Although I WISH and HOPE they’d improve their Shrimp Summer Rolls, the Pho is just the best I’ve had out here. I keep wanting to add on the Banh Mi but I’m so full after the Pho. I’m redoing my rating to a 5. For the price, especially the specials, it’s a no brainer. I think this restaurant has finally found its calling on the area and wish them the best on success. Judging from
The volume of people 3 of the past 4 days they will be fine. 😍. Oh by the way, the atmosphere and service are also 🤩. Better on visits 2 and 3 for us.

Ugh. Just saw Danny’s photo of the Banh Mi. Hopefully Pho Wayne is open tomorrow. 🙏🏼 🤤

PS the Jasmine Green Tea is the best tea I’ve ever had. My daughter gets the Matcha Green Tea. The first day it came in a reusable cup which she loved. Today it came in a glass. She was hoping to start a collection she could use at home. Not a deal breaker, but a bummer for her today. 🤪

Update. Well, we’ve been back at least 8 times since my last review. I have the song “Just Can’t Get Enough” from Depeche Mode going through my head right now. Pho still AMAZIIING! I wanted to also add in that the Scallion pancakes are DELISH. Had them a week or so back (I actually was a little sick from too much wine the night before so couldn’t eat them there, but threw them in the air fryer the next day and they weee STILL great). OH the little mints they have up front are lovely. They do have them at the Hung Vuong market down the street from Pho Wayne (left hand side, UP the candy aisle towards the bottom) if interested. My daughter had to have them.

Still 5 stars.“

“Working on Saturday, just wanted to pick something easy up. Got the Teriyaki chicken bento and it was great! No complaints, loved the teriyaki flavor & would try it or another one again. The price reflected the amount of food I got so I’m satisfied.“

“Absolutely delicious!!! Highly recommend!“
