Vinason Pho Kitchen - Sammamish

We enjoy the food here. We biked down from our home about 3 miles and had a hearty pho soup and bahnmi sandwich. Staff is friendly and helpful and ambience pleasant.

I used to love this place but unfortunately they decided the shrink the size of their portions, especially the Banh MIs and also increased their prices. It is just not worth the price anymore. Sad!

Very disappointed. I used to enjoy their steak bahn mi sandwich. Yes, it was expensive at $15, and with the quality ingredients, I justified it. But the sandwich SHRunk! I'd say by 33%! Bread is smaller and less inside. Now it's very much not a $15 sandwich. It's almost a strictly take out place, so no need for service or dining room. And now with shrinkage, I guess Sammamish has 1 less restaurant for me. I hope they move to one of the new small spots where petco used to be and then cut their prices.

This is more of a fast-food style Vietnamese spot — the rice and noodles are quite average and don’t compare to what you’d get at a proper Vietnamese restaurant.

Bahn Mi’s are good. The pho is flavorless and you’re not given enough noodles or meat for it to be $22.

The food is average but they are very stingy with bean sprouts, never had pho with so little bean sprouts anyway!

Follow up question：
So where were red chili and pickled garlic? What I got were just regular jalapeños and no garlic on the side. Your explanation doesn’t make sense.

I don’t need ask ChatGPT, your logic is flawed, and you should ask ChatGPT how to be a better restaurant for sure.

The food was horrible, we ordered the beef meatball pho , and the broth was average, the noodles tasted old, instead of pork spring roll they gave us a beef spring roll with boiled onion in it, the restroom was very dirty.

Tasty food & friendly enough staff, but the specials highlighted on the big overhead menu weren’t on the self-order kiosk so had to be ordered separately with an employee, so it came out way before everyone else’s order. Also, sadly, the neat soda fountains have been discontinued and their canned selection is very limited. Additionally, we had to wait quite a while for our food. Better to order as takeout than dine in.

Ingredients tasted really fresh and I really loved the bread of the banh mi. Price is reasonable and serving is generous. I highly recommend!

I have ordered take out from here several times. I typically order the steak pho. The pho has good flavor and clean broth. This is not my favorite pho place but the flavor on the steak pho is good enough that I give it a four star. I wish they offered a large size pho, but the regular pho is already pricey, so who knows how much they would charge for a large pho.
