Pho Restaurants near Alexandria, VA

“I always go here for Pho. I like their spring roll, very tasty. The staff is friendly. Their lunch special comes with a drink and spring roll and it is pretty cheap.“

“Kim is an exceptional lady, who took the time to explain her roots, and the way her food is different than other Vietnamese restaurants, and how her mom inspired many of the menu items.
However when you have folks who are preparing the food, who don't understand the culture, concept, and passion behind the dishes, somethings might slip through the cracks...
Like how long do you leave rice paper in the water before it starts to rip, or shrimp paste is supposed to smell like that, and it is to be eaten that way, or how to properly wash your bones when you make a stock, and not leave it smelling or tasting gamey.
Although Kim explained her version of the famous dish Bun Bo Hue, the place where her family comes from, there were minute details which I didn't care for, and I missed the usual garnished that are served with the dish, however authentic they might or might not be.
The Pho was good, a big portion of meat.
The star of my lunch were the crispy Wontons, perfectly balanced with the sweet chili sauce.
Overall a cute spot, will go back to try more dishes“

“Best broth in a 10 mile radius 🍜 excellent food👍😋👌“

“very good pho ga di bo...“

“I have yet to find a vegan cheesesteak that matches up to the ones in Philadelphia (Basic 4 why did you have to leave!), but this was pretty tasty. I wasn't a huge fan of the roll, but the cheesesteak itself was good, and with precisely the right amount of onions and peppers. The vegan potato salad was great too. It's actually a ghost kitchen though - there are three other vegan restaurants from this window (Yang's Chinese, Pizza Loko, and Kimchi's Pho/Bibimbap) and you're probably best off getting delivery. There are other restaurants in the building as well ("food incubator") but those are the vegan ones run by the same owner.“

Recommendations: Spring Rolls, Pho Dac Biet (rare steak, brisket, and meatballs)

A very decent pho shop with large bowls of pho. Location is kind of sketchy, and I’m not a fan of the atmosphere inside - too small and too dark. However, the quality of food makes up for it. Will probably come back again if I’m feeling pho!“
