About Pho Tran

Pho Tran is a small, quaint restaurant that serves exceptional Vietnamese cuisine. The Pho is a must-try, with one popular option being the Pho #2, which comes highly recommended. The restaurant is known for its giant beef shank bone, a highlight of the meal. The service is fast and attentive, and the Vietnamese iced coffee is a great accompaniment. While prices are a bit above average, the quality of the food and service make it well worth a visit.

The restaurant has a cozy, family-run atmosphere, with the older lady who runs the place being incredibly kind and welcoming. The Pho is rich and comforting, with tender meat and fresh herbs, made with care. Customers describe the broth as having a deep, rich beef flavor, not too spicy, allowing the beef to shine. The brisket has a crunchy fat and melt-in-your-mouth texture. Overall, Pho Tran is a true hidden gem, offering a "grandma's kitchen" charm and a flavorful, heartwarming dining experience.

Good place to eat and serves great portions if you know what you're asking for. If you're non vietnamese speaking, ask for the special bowl with the beef bone and that is what you will get. The marrow and meat is so tender and flavorful when mixed with the soup. It yields an immense amounts of complimentary flavor with the broth they have already made by default. Strongly recommend ordering this. Service is good at start but dont expect a refill automatically unless you raise...read full review
Love the older lady at the cash register. I like the environment since it reminded me of vietnam without the little chairs. There was a language barrier, but i still pointed to the pictures i like to try out...The pho i ordered was #1 on the menu and it was okayyy....1 thing i will always come back for was their #4 coffee....i believe its the vietnamese coffee with condensed milk...yummm
