Really good pho, probably some of the best broth in the the city. You can tell they take their time by its depth of flavor. FYI The dong pho does not have a bread stick but an amazing piece of bread that soaks up all the deliciousness. Price is great as well comparatively. Can't wait to go back and try their other items.

Food is definitely above average, not the best, but it's good enough to recommend. I enjoyed my meal. Very fresh ingredients. Fresh spring rolls and vermicelli. Good portion of protein, veggies and noodles. Equalized.
The vermicelli and order of springs rolls, water and tip came to about $20 and some change. I was very full.

I have been eating here for about 20+ years. The food is so good! Soft shell bao! Vermicelli bowls! Fried noodles!

We went here for the bahn mi, but they said they were out of bread. How does that happen? Three tables that came in after us got their food before us. The service was terrible. They just ignore any questions you ask, kinda acting like maybe they don’t speak English very well so just leave them alone. The coffee we got was good enough. After waiting for 35 mins, we just left the money on the table for the coffee and left. Clearly our order was held up, but we got no explanation.

The beef stew and crispy tofu with garlic sauce were standouts, but everything was good.

I grew up on Dong Nai. It's a southwest Austin staple. They have upscaled with the times so it feels like it just opened. Always worth a meal.

It was good but not amazing.... Maybe it was just the dishes I ordered which were garlic and scallops and then also we ordered the special dong nai beef ribs in pho.
I thought the garlic scallops was a little bit too sour tasting. The beef ribs were good but since it's pho it's not super flavorful.
Maybe I just like Thai better....
It’s a top quality for sure. I love the atmosphere and the energy for the people and food.

Clean place and fast service. We ordered spring rolls, calamari, the pork chop with a fried egg on top, pad thai and shaken beef and everything was delicious. I would love to come back.

Very good pho south of the river. Broth isn’t as clear as some places, but it’s very good and isn’t heavy. Not a complaint, just some people’s preference. Friendly service.

This food taste so good and decently priced. The only problem is that they don’t give you much. We got the drunken beef and got maybe 8 small pieces of beef. They also give you less than a cup of rice for each meal and charge $2 for extra rice (even though it’s not even a cup full). They don’t let you make substitutes for fried rice so you have to get white rice. We got the curry chicken which was really good and the combination pad Thai was just okay. I really like the food but it’s just not much and each time I’ve placed an order they always take a very long time.

Got solid pho and pork spring rolls for pick up. I ordered the brisket pho while my friend got the chicken pho. Even after a 30 min drive back to the house, the broth was still nice and hot. The bowl of noodles, meat, and onions were nicely prepared for the hot broth to be poured over. Fresh bean sprouts, basil leaves, jalapeño slices, and lime wedges were packaged separately. I wished they had thrown in hot sauce and oyster sauce. That was the only thing missing.
