Pho is for Lovers

Tried the Chicken Phở. The broth was extraordinary. They give you jalapeño on the side. I d say be careful how much of it you put into ur phở. it gets really steamy ;) Overall, i am glad I tried it out.

Huge servings, the phở is really good. I didn’t care much for the banh mi, the bread was dry. Service is great, the waitress was informative and helpful in our selection.

Best phở I’ve had, time and time again. Always hot and savory, served in minutes. To me it stands out by being so full of delicious soup flavor. The only better chicken soup I had was my grandma’s. Other dishes are good as well, like shaved beef or grilled chicken. Service always friendly and efficient. Cool atmosphere, with modern interior design.

Decided to try this restaurant because it was close by the outlet after half a day of shopping. Waited for someone to seat me but a guy at the counter gestured to have a seat. Sat down then noticed I got to order from the counter instead of waiting for someone to take my order. Ordered the summer rolls (really the spring rolls) and Vietnamese coffee. Got the spring rolls pretty quick. Waited quite a long time for the coffee. Started to think they’ve forgotten about my coffee. Looked for someone but couldn’t find anyone. Got off my seat to find the guy who took my order eating behind my table. He said it takes longer to make it. Got the coffee after what seems like 15 – 20 minutes.
Overall, the ratings by others are in line with my rating. Prices are about $ 1-​$ 2 above other restaurants but the portions are bigger.

I have been here three times. The first time I wasn’t too impressed and it was probably because I didn’t order the dish they are named after. I was on my way to the Allen Event Center and wanted a quick bite. I ordered fried rice and the summer rolls. The fried rice was gooey and didn’t have a very good flavor– actually no flavor, just salty and oily taste. The summer rolls were very uneventful, as well. It tasted like it sat in the fridge for a couple of days, in other words, it didn’t taste fresh. Maybe it is important to note I visited a week day.
But I recently returned on a weekend and order the chicken phở. It was so delicious. The broth was light and flavorful. The big chucks of chicken assured me it was real unprocessed chicken. My child liked it so much she asked to come back. We came on the weekend.
I went back a third time and brought my whole family, on a weekend as well. We had the chicken phở, beef phở, and the egg rolls. The chicken phở was just as I had it last time and was light and flavorful. The beef phở was also flavorful and had meat ball and slices of beef. My personal preference is still for the chicken phở. The egg rolls had a slight spiciness to them and were a good serving size. My spouse agreed this is one of the best phở places around at the moment in the north, north Dallas area. The two phở restaurants near us have gone downhill and we now had to venture out further for our phở fix.
I took off one start because of service the last two times we went in. Both times, it was the same guy at the register and both times he acts like he doesn’t want to be there. I said hi in front of him at the register and there is no reaction– no smile, no ‘hi’, no ‘what can I get you”. There is no confirmation of what I ordered or «thank you». His body language is of indifference. He just tells me what I need to pay and speaks clearly. When I asked how to get water, he just pointed to the drink station.
My recommendation is to order the phở and go there on the weekend when the food turns over more frequently and is more fresh.

I ate lunch here Thursday and ordered the ckn phở. About 2 hrs later I started to feel sick. I was nauseated, vomiting, and had terrible stomach cramps for almost 24 hrs. The stomach pains are still lingering 2 days later. Bummed because we go here a lot. I know this can happen anywhere, but I don’t see myself wanting to come back anytime soon.

My husband and I love this restaurant. My husband can never get enough of the rice with pork plate here. He always order it with an egg. As for me, I love their Summer rolls and pretty much everything on their menu. They also have special items on the menu on the weekends like Spicy Beef Noodle Soup (Bun Bo Hue) and Fried Rice. I always order the Spicy Beef Noodles when i’m there on the weekend because it’s very delicious!!! My favorite here is the Beef Phở and the Vermicelli with pork and egg rolls. I think they have the best egg rolls. It’s crispy and not greasy or mushy like most places. The food is always consistent and it always come out pretty fast. They also have a good selections of Asian drinks. The staff are really friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming.

Went by after searching on Unilocal.I had the chicken plate, wife had the rare steak and we ordered some egg rolls. My chicken plate was good, very precise on portion. The egg rolls were bad though, didn’t taste fresh so I’d pass on them.
My wife said that her broth was missing some flavor so we added some lime, hot sauce and that improved it. It’s pricier than other places and they have a strange policy about not ordering child size noodles to go. If their afraid that customers are ordering smaller portions to pay less, that’s too bad. Luckily we dined in so our little ones were with us.

The place is great! Delicious phở, excellent service, great vibe! Now I have a phở spot near home! Except, I don’t get the name.
I got the beef phở; the soup tastes a bit different than what I’m used to, but this different is what makes the place unique. Lots of noodles. Fresh veggies on the side. Cooked to perfection meatballs, beef and brisket.
Phở is for Lovers will make you feel like you’re in Vietnam!

Today was my first attempt at Phở. A friend got me hooked on Vietnamese Coffee and this place is the best. The staff is also super friendly– i asked for extra toppings and they gladly accommodated. They even opened up after house when they saw me outside wanting coffee– it made my night.

This is my second attempt in finding good Phở in north Texas. The bar is set high as I’ve enjoyed many outstanding rendition of this dish across the county.
I ordered the beef phở and iced coffee on a not too busy Saturday afternoon. The phở was good, not great, but good. The beef was cooked well and the broth was nicely seasoned. The phở as a stand alone would be a three star. The fourth star was the outstanding quality of the ice coffee. It was fantastic! My drink was clearly made from fresh brewed coffee and solid coffee flavors. It was a little sweet but the an overall great drink.

This place should not even be allowed to sell summer rolls they are soo bad!!! There noddles are ok and shrimp were seasoned pretty good but they really do not give you a lot of the sauce and the portions are small

So I’ll be totally honest right now. I walked in this place and saw the prices and my mouth dropped. I literally walked out muttering that they were ripping people off and they have got to be phở-​king kidding me, because anyone who would pay those prices clearly does not know the phở market in Dallas. Yes, that’s a thing.
Cue 2 months later when I don’t feel like driving to Phở Que Huong at Legacy and 75 and Phở Crystal won’t pick up their phone. I was desperate for phở, ok?
I ordered two beef phos and eggrolls and begrudgingly forked over $ 23.
You guys… it was GOOD. Like, really good. Yes, it’s a little more expensive than the strip centers shops, but in the beef phở, you’re getting meatballs, brisket, and top quality steak, not suspicious meat of unknown origin. Plus it’s about the same portion as a large bowl from the ‘other guys’, which really means when you add up the 3 meats and the large bowl add-​on charges, you’re probably only paying around $ 1 more for some seriously great and convenient phở!
Bonus: Their packaging is really cute. They even include a little plastic phở spoon! It’s the little things.

The Phở tasted great, made in the morning, would have loved it to be made fresh so I could have asked for no salt but it wasn’t super salty.
I let them know I’m sensitive to salt and they asked me to try it before eating. It tasted fine. Little to no fat in it which was great, though the tofu was fried :/​
Also got a custom papaya salad with no meat. Tasted like a dream
Overall it’s a nice meal 1 – 2 times in the week. I enjoyed the friendly high school/​college age staff.

I love this neighborhood Phở restaurant! It’s so nice and clean inside. The staff has been friendly on every visit I’ve made. I have had several items but love the Beef Phở and shaking beef dishes. I crave Phở so I must come several times a month.

Loved this place! Cute little place in a strip mall… plenty of tables to dine in, plus easy to grab take out. The décor is modern and the restaurant is clean. Order at the counter and take a seat — they will bring your order to your table. The food comes out fairly quick, so its okay if you show up starving! The menu is easy to follow so choosing is a breeze. Plus the staff was ultra friendly and helpful if you do have questions about what to order.
I ordered the Beef Phở (includes, Filet, Brisket, and Meatballs). The meatballs were a little weird on texture, but otherwise fine. The broth was super flavorful… I really didn’t need to add anything to make more yummy. This was probably my favorite I have had to date. I did add the jalapenos, basil and sprouts that come on the plate, but nothing extra! I usually have to add sriracha and/​or other sauces to make the broth more tasty. Not this time! I loved the flavor as is. My friend and I also shared an order of summer rolls and egg rolls (2 rolls per order). I enjoyed them both — the egg roll was perfectly fried and had good flavor. The summer roll was good, but had a bit too much stuff inside… it includes both pork and shrimp. It was good, but I prefer my summer rolls with tofu.
The phở portion size is a lot… enough for two meals. The to-​go baggies come with all the fixin’s if you ask (ie fresh basil), so you can enjoy the phở just as much on the second day as well. I wish it were a tad closer to my house… but it’s definitely worth the drive!

Good Phở «Fa»! Good portion sizes, but a bit too expensive considering that Phở Crystal is just down the road, and the Phở Que Houng is at Eldorado and 75. Both of the optional choices are remarkably cheaper, and offer quality dishes.
I need to try the Bahn Mi. Will do that on the next visit.

Wow this place is over priced. I was shocked when I walked in and saw the prices. I mean c’mon it’s just phở. Beef phở was $ 8.95 and it was nothing special at all.
The com bo luc lac was more vegetables than filet mignon. They really skimped on the shaken beef in this dish. Very disappointed for a whopping $ 10.75.
Oh and banh mi for $ 6…seriously, it better be at least a foot long at that price. Everything in Texas is bigger right? Wrong!
I wanted to love Phở is for Lovers (no pun intended) but at these prices, sorry.

This is just okay with nothing special on the menu. The seafood phở had over cooked shrimp and calamari which were rubbery and very fishy.
This place is more of a fast food style restaurant. The kids that work here are nice, but it’s just so so food.
I won’t be back.

I love Phở, I have always loved Phở, this Phở is average. In the grand scheme of things, PHOgetaboutit.
First I’ll talk about the positive points.
— The place was clean, this goes a long way for me since dirty places gross me out
— The service was good (not great but good)
— The food came out pretty quick
Service was OK. You order from the counter and they give you a number. The kid helping didn’t seem too interested in helping me, it was after lunch so maybe he was busy.
The food was just OK. The Phở was not bad, but it wasn’t great. I didn’t feel it was as «flavorful» as the Phở I’m used to just down the road.
I typically order the Spring Roll but without shrimp, just pork. The pork seems like sliced deli meat. Again, it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great.
I can’t say anything negative about this place, but I can’t brag about anything either… it’s like blah… yawn.
Some rant and rave how awesome this place is, I just don’t see it.
