I came to this restaurant for lunch to try their pho. As soon as I stepped in, I noticed I was the only customer, something about the atmosphere already gave me a bad feeling. Still, I’m new to the area and wanted to give it a shot, especially since the name of the place is Pho Tasty. You’d expect the pho to live up to that name.

To my surprise, the entire restaurant was being run by just one person. The woman at the cashier, who had a rude attitude, also turned out to be the chef. I ordered the P12, which on the menu is supposed to come with steak, flank, tendon, fatty flank, and crunchy flank. When my bowl arrived, it was missing the crunchy flank. The pho broth was so salty

As someone who is Vietnamese and knows what vè giòn (crunchy flank) looks and tastes like, I politely told her the meat was missing. Instead of being understanding, she got visibly annoyed, frowned, and told me to “check again” as if I didn’t know what I was talking about. Her customer service was terrible and made the whole experience uncomfortable.

If you’re looking for good pho and respectful service, I wouldn’t recommend this place. There are plenty of better options out there

One of my favorite pho places around. Never have I been disappointed and the tempura cheesecake is phenomenal

the food was good but we found a metal piece in our noodles and they made us pay for the order.

I just had pho, spring rolls and egg rolls from this place and everything was very tasty and well done! Super friendly and excellent service! The restaurant itself is beautiful. Very new, very clean and an inviting atmosphere. Great place to go if you love Pho!

Pho broth tasted like saline solution and looked like watered down piss. Meat was tough and dry.
Crab rangoons had no crab in them. Seriously I ate one then broke all the others open and could hardly find a speck of crustacean in there.
The sandwich wasn’t bad but nothing to write home about.
I unfortunately will not be spending money here again.

Most updated menu attached. Old photos have older pricing. Honestly I've been going here for years since I live nearby, I could say portion gets smaller as pricing gets higher. Quality of peanut dipping sauce largely declined from scumpy to watery bland taste. The place has cozy high ceiling to dine in. Your order can be ready in 10minutes but not sure if that's the reason why quality and quantity were compromised. I would rethink if I will keep coming back here.

Parking: Parking can be challenging because it is sharing business with a grocery store, ace hardware and other business nearby with very limited parking space

Great looking place. 👌

Disgusting pho. Went yesterday and I couldn't finish it. Felt horrible but that's not my problem.

Do not go here and get the pho. Twas the worst ever and I'll simply not go back. The bowl wasn't even piping hot like it should be.

Such a shame. The place looks great but the pho is not at all tasty!

My husband and I had dinner plans so we just ordered one large pho with extra noodles to share. We made a mistake coming here. As soon as we ordered one pho, the lady’s face expression changed from friendly to irritated. Our pho didn’t look “large” nor did it look like she gave us extra noodles. We asked if it came with “extra noodles” she said “there are plenty of noodles!” You can tell the owner is cheap. Broth is bland, flavor is lacking, portion is extremely small and the service is really bad. There was nobody eating at this restaurant when we were there. Dirty plates everywhere and not welcoming at all. The owner needs to fix her attitude. Never coming back. There are plenty of other pho restaurants in this area. Please go somewhere else. There is Hi Bahn Mi in the same plaza. We came to Hi Bahn Mi to buy sandwiches afterwards since their pho was not good! Ruined our tastebud. Hi Bahn Mi is friendly unlike Pho Tasty. Pho Tasty? Pho Nasty!
