“Very friendly, lots of vegan and vegetarian options for bahn no, main dishes, noodles, desserts, drinks, and package snacks. Also happy to cater to plastic – free preferences. Will definitely eat there again!Vegetarian options: And vegan options too!“
“This is one of my favorite dessert spots! All of their drinks and chè are amazing, and the pandan waffle is a dream. I like the red bean combo, taro lover, Bambu combo, Fruit addict. So many great options to choose from. I've ordered the pandan waffle at other locations, but they never compared to this location. Theirs is always big, crispy and chewy!Việt owned and operated! I miss Nhu, but everyone is kind and great.“
“Quick review:•Good quality pho•Has freebie cream puff•Affordable price•Good, clean environment•Friendly service; staff lunch break at 3:30pm•Accepts credit card but takes &.50 sub chargeI had been to other Than Brothers locations, but it was the first on this one. The other pho place I patronized a lot in the past has significantly increased the price, thus sadly, not as affordable anymore. After all our goal of searching good food is affordability but not sacrificing the quality.Than Brothers at Wallingford, the other pho place I visited sometimes, has stopped offering the yummy cream puff with their pho last few times I been there. I was surprised to see that they have the cream puff on the menu at the Edmonds restaurant still, and more surprised to see that they gave me one with my pho! Whoa! I like this place.Pho is good, hot, big as usual. I decided to order a medium in here, because I saw the fresh salad rolls on the menu too. The rolls were very decent. No crunchy pieces inside, but fresh and well packed. The price of the food items are reasonable and still affordable.When I came in at 3:10pm I saw a sign outside states “Staff lunch break 3:30pm”, but I don’t think they closed the door during that time. And they do charge a fee of $0.50 for using the credit card.“
“Do yourself a favor — EAT AT LOTUS POND. (1) Carpool to Lotus Pond. The more the merrier. (2) Appetizers: You can’t lose. Everything is good. Me? I eat the Imperial Rolls. Get two orders of the egg rolls aka Imperial Rolls — one order won’t be enough for 2 people. Start there, you’ll be very happy. Also order the pork belly on the skewers please, No regrets. It’s very good. (3) Noodle Soups. Every bowl Is a winner. Pho is great, no question there. However, you absolutely must eat the SEAFOOD with special Red Noodle. (4) Early enough during the day, drink the Viet Ice Coffee. (5) Too bad they don’t have enough staff/hands to make the BANH CUON but they make up for it in many ways. Try everything on the menu. I’m not a relative. I don’t get money or fame for recommending Lotus Pond. I just know authentic good food when I see and eat it. Try it. You will leave with a full, joyous stomach … you will be very satisfied. Happy eating!“
“This is my favorite spot in Greenwood. The phos and the beef salad are excellent. And, the portions are big. Each time we visit I leave very full. The first time we came on a Friday around 6:30 and had to wait about 45 minutes. Since then, we've arrived earlier at 5:30, and there hasn't been a wait. So, it's all about coming it at the right time. Even if you do have to wait, I think it's worth it.“
“Randomly stopped in to meet friends. So beyond impressed. Everything was outstanding. The food, the service, the drinks, the atmosphere, and did I mention the service. John was by far the best bartender I have ever met. I mean that in all sincerity. Next time I’m in Seattle I’ll be stopping in !“
“Best Banh Mi sandwich I have had in as long as I can remember. I only ran in to order, I didn’t dine in but the place is SUPER CUTE on the inside and the service I did experience was also equally amazing! 11/10 would eat again! (I ate my sandwich before I could take a picture of it)“
“Love this place! Seating is a little tight because it's so popular but their food is pretty good! Very affordable and always consistent with the taste and flavor. I would recommend but I don't want others to visit so I don't have to wait. lol“
“My wife and I ordered take out. She's a foodie and harsh critic but had nothing but glowing reviews for the dishes we ordered. We usually get pho from a few other spots on Aurora but we're going to stick to this place for the time being. Very impressed! Pairs well with Rainier “
“Nice pho spot in Shoreline WashingtonThe combination is delicious and reasonably pricedThey also give you a lot of bean sprouts to add into your soupThe spring rolls are also very crispy and well-madeService here is fastThis place has a small parking lot on the side for convenience“
“Phó shop owned by a mom and pop literally. They have big portions and great food. Small restaurant, but packs a punch! Parking can be kind of a challenge, but its worth the hassle.Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian options, like veggies or tofu“
“Super good! New owners, took our orders fast, brought out the food fast, amazing food and taste. Portions are worth the price as well! Super good stuff and I took advantage of their 20 percent off sale for their grand opening! 10 outta 10 for sure, will be back soon! They do fine in and take out I believe and you dont even have to worry about covid 19 in that restaurant because it's all clean and socially distanced ! Love it and it's close by too. Good luck on the new business!“
“Lee and her team are fantastic. The bahn mi sandwiches are delicious. They catered a pta fundraiser party for a local sps school parent community. She was easy to work with, flexible, offered helpful suggestions, and reasonably priced. Would use them again and highly recommend!“
“First time back in years and it's every bit as wonderful as I remember. First came when it opened a long time ago and fell in love. Used to come multiple times a week after soccer and there's nothing better to replenish. They haven't hiked prices anywhere close to what they could have and i was amazed to see how cheap it for the quality in 2024. Go here you won't regret it.“
“Was craving pho and didn’t feel like spending $18+ on a bowl, so decided to check out this no-frills restaurant! I got a large pho with steak (I think it was $14.50) and my friend got the lemongrass chicken rice plate (around $13).The pho was really delicious. I have had a lot of pho before and I will admit, I’m really picky about broth. But this one did not disappoint! Hot, flavorful, and comforting. It also had lots of beef.The lemongrass chicken had amazing flavor and was really moist. The side salad was really fresh as well, which was a pleasant surprise.What lacks in ambience is made up for in exceptional food. I felt like I was eating a home cooked meal.I will definitely be coming back soon!“
“Everything is delicious. For a long time we just ordered Bahn Mi sandwiches because they were so delicious. The bread is crackly and soft and the ratio of meat to veg is perfect. Tonight, however, we tried the egg noodle chow mein, the teriyaki chicken, egg rolls and potstickers. We were not disappointed. Everything was great. Happy full bellies! Plus the service is wonderful. Everyone who works there is a delight.“
“The pho is really freaking good, and the prices are the best for what you get. The atmosphere is non existent, but at these prices and quality, I'm fine with that.Great lunch spotWheelchair accessibility: I don't think a wheelchair would have an easy time navigating the tight space...“
“Been here twice, definitely my go to place for pho.As Asian I have my own way to tell if an Asian restaurant is good, that is their play list! Those who have pop western music from 80s and 90s hardly go wrong. And if they play festive music during LNY, you can trust them. I came here in summer and during LNY recently, their playlist checked the boxes.I like rare beef pho. The soup is SUPER good, light yet flavorful. Sliced beef is think and tender. Make sure to stir the pho quickly once you get them, they might stick together at the bottom of the bowl.My partner is vegetarian, his egg noodles soup base is different from mine but it is also light and flavorful, kinda sweet. It also comes with lots of veggies and some firm tofu.“
“I've never been into the restaurant...we have gotten delivery several times. It's so yummy! Just so yummy! I am vegetarian, and all of the dishes that I've eaten have been amazing. My kiddo likes the smoked pork rice bowl with an egg on top! Great value for the price! They don't seem to be engaging in shrink-flation, which I appreciate!“
“My favorite place! After trying so many vegetarian pho in Seattle I was finally able to find the best one :) They have the best veggie pho broth which in my opinion is the most important thing when eating pho. I couldn't recommend this place more, I've been a regular customer for more than a year, I walk in and they already know my order, all the staff is very friendly and always super attentive, thank you pho than!!“
“Got the chicken vermicelli bowl for to-go!WOW, I really didn't expect that!!! Quick service and amazing food!!I was so surprised by that location because you wouldn't expect the great food. Very fresh and delicious!Now, I just wanna come back here to try more.Casual ambiance with friendly service.“
“At first, I was very confused by this kitchen concept. There are multiple restaurants in this location, and they are all takeout / delivery only. They mainly rely on delivery, and are all on multiple apps. They have lockers and a self pick-up and self ordering system for no-contact. This is NOT a traditional restaurant and there is no seating at all. Recommend ordering ahead of time because again, there is no place to sit or wait inside the restaurant space. There is a bathroom though. The food, however, was quite delicious. We ordered the pork vermicelli bowl, tofu vermicelli bowl, tofu spring rolls, and shrimp spring rolls. The spring rolls are marketed as appetizers but can honestly be a full meal too. The peanut sauce it comes with is delicious. I ordered at the store and waited for my food. Everything was packed super well and perfectly ready to eat by the time I got home. In fact, I ate it so quickly I forgot to take photos. With an order of $35+, it comes with a free green Thai tea. This is a special type of Thai tea that has an herbal flair to it. I like it very much.As it's in Udistrict, there isn't much parking except street parking, but there is a loading zone spot for pickups.“
“Nice, no frills Pho place. The Pho House Special or "dac biet" was very good. The broth was flavorful and the meat wasn't dry. Even tasted like the beef balls were homemade. Some of the best pho I've had in WA.Got a couple of sandwiches too, the grilled pork and grilled chicken. The bread was fresh and crispy, the meat was flavorful, and the pickled veggies were crunchy.The view is amazing. Sit by the window to get a view of the water and Kenmore Air Harbor.Don't expect much from the service. You place your order and they bring it to you but you get your own water and utensils. They clean up after you though.Good, simple, place to get Pho with a unique view.“
“Absolutely delicious banh mi sandwiches, and under $10 which is hard to find. I got the grilled pork and my boyfriend got the lemongrass. The bread was not too hard, the amount of veggies were perfect and the meat was marinated so well. Both really good and will definitely be back.“
“Fast service and decent pho. I get the large and they tend to give a lot more soup and less noodle than needed so I feel like it would be good to get extra noodles. The broth is pretty good and tends to be flavorful. Nothing really special though.“
“This is your above average pho and Vietnamese food joint. This place is clean and well kept. The staff are awesome and very accommodating. Prices generally are on the higher end, but what do you expect, it's Seattle. Dining area can get crowded, but highly recommended to try if you're in the area.“
“I'm your typical PNW lady as far as pho being one of my favorite foods to eat. So I was really excited to try this place when it opened. The pho broth had a VERY satisfying and meaty flavor. The portions and quality of the meat and noodles were good too. I also ordered fresh spring rolls and again the taste, quality and portions were great. The atmosphere of the place is really nice too. Its bright, open and clean. I also got a free Boba tea from a coupon I found on the back of a Fred Meyer receipt. I will be coming here again!!!“
“Great family owned business that takes pride and care to make sure I'm 100% satisfied. They literally know exactly what I want everytime. Also, they make sure they ask me how was my meal after each time. When I give constructive criticism, they are diligent to make necessary changes to suit my needs. A+business! You guys rock!“
“In shortNeighborhood pho joint with a straightforward menu. They're delivering the goods for a fair price.In longThis is a bustling strip mall on an even-more-bustling 4-lane thoroughfare into Mill Creek. The parking lot is always packed. Especially on weekends, you can often assume that the pool hall/sports bar in the corner suite is drawing most of that traffic. But like most of the smaller businesses here, Pho Hoang has some reserved parking and you can hook it straight up. There's pho available at a couple spots within a few miles, but there are a ton of subdivisions and apartment complexes right around here. I was not at all surprised to see well over a dozen takeaway orders leave the dining room while I ate, and to hear a constant clatter from the kitchen, even though I was the only person eating in.You walk in to an open dining room with minimal decor. Dozen tables, acoustic drop ceiling, simple art. No muss, no fuss. Pay station in the back, tell 'em how many in your party and ya have a seat. No TVs I don't think, no music playing. A couple big potted plants. Seemed like the staff was mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, plus somebody in the kitchen and daughter at the pay station. Everyone is super nice, chatting warmly to each other in Vietnamese throughout my visit. I felt like I was visiting people in their home, in the nicest possible way. For my first time in, I got the usual steak and brisket. A small was filling for sure. You get an old teapot with a teabag steeping in it if you ask. They bring you a chilled plastic bottle of water when you sit. The broth was good stuff here. Rich and marrowy, nice and clear, good balanced spices. Everything in it was as it should be--tender meat, chewy noodles, nice flavor to the meatballs. The meatballs were a nice surprise, actually. The condiments were all in good shape--crunchy sprouts, very juicy fresh lime, super-aromatic basil. They don't bring you jalapenos or cilantro, and I didn't ask for any so I don't know if they stock it. But it was a perfectly satisfying bowl of soup as it was. I was out the door with a good tip for barely $20, happily armored against a cold damp day.“
“This place is EXCELLENT if you want REALLY, GREAT, DELICIOUS pho and Vietnamese food! Their prices are reasonable... as they raised their prices just after the pandemic (a lot of businesses did to make up for their losses)... but, it's still worth it to eat here. They have a huge selection of items for appetizers and dishes... and the staff is friendly. When I joked with one of their cashiers - I told the cashier that they should be playing Vietnamese music rather than Top 40 - whatever disc music they have playing. That's the only drawback... but, that doesn't affect the way they cook their food. It's a great location... busy, but a great location... and you shouldn't feel disappointed at all once you dine here. Keep coming back to this place... as my wife and I have been there SEVERAL times. Pho on 44th is our #1 restaurant when we want pho.“
“Because of how close this location was it quickly became my go-to after a few visits because I always get amazed by how fast and friendly the staff are! I'm a fan of their Veggie Banh Mi, which tastes just as good as the more traditional banh mis out there! Not to mention this place offers boba which is a big plus for on-to-go cuisine!“
“This is another pho place that is amazing. We had fresh spring roll, medium (large is way way to big) pho with brisket, flank steak, back rib and stir fried beef and veggies.The quality of meat is very good. The pho had plenty of noodles and meat in itThe stir fried beef and veggies, was very delicious too. The beef wasn't dry, actually fried and not boiled, like I've seen in other places.I highly recommend giving this place a try. Very good food.“
“Good casual pho place that hits the spot. 2nd time here - came back for the thick traditional pho noodles! Their banh bot chien (fried rice flour cakes) is also nice a balance of crispy and chewy, I had to order it again. Think this will be my go to pho place in this area.“
“No frills hole in the wall authentic Vietnamese food. I got bun rieu and I was so surprised it came with real crab meat. My hhusband’s pho tai was also equally good! Come here if you want affordable Vietnamese food! Will be back to try other items on their menu!!“
“Walked in and ordered a tofu Bahn Mi to go. The staff was friendly and had lots of tables to serve! My food was prepared fairly quickly and the server offered for me to take chopsticks, napkins, whatever I needed. The Bahn Mi was delicious! Everything from the bread to the tofu to the fillings, I enjoyed it to the last bite.“
“I've been going to Bol for 7 years and just realized I've never given it an appropriate review for the service and value received. The food here is a little experimental, a little fusion-y, but always yummy. This place is a restaurant I feel comfortable taking my father from the Midwest because it's approachable and he always gushes about how healthy the food tastes.I like how clean the restaurant is, and the craft cocktails are great! I also appreciate all of the gluten free options!“
“Absolutely love this place. Family owned, Banh Mi’s are great. Growing up in a Vietnamese household, we’d come up to Seattle from Olympia to get banh mi’s. Rise and shine is one of the restaurants that replicates that same taste I remember. Highly recommend.“
