Pho & Grill

Delicious chicken phở, the chicken is always juicy and not dry and overcooked like other places. Thier pork rolls are AMAZING. I come here weekly and the food is consistently yummy!

We come here a lot. My daughter loves summer rolls and bubble tea. Phở is good but I’ve noticed some inconsistency with the freshness of the basil or no jalepenos included with the soup. Since we usually get take out more hoisen sauce should be provided. Perk up the condiments and its 5 star.

After phở city, this is my go to place for pipping hot phở. Their phở tastes great and they have the veggies rightly cooked. The tofu is soft and big pieces as well. The service is fast. You go to the counter to order and they bring the hot phở to your table. Good portions and moderate prices as compared to other phở places. Dine in, dine phở!

I have been to this location many times, and while I do not expect fine dining, I do expect to get my order correct. The staff are very sweet, but I am not sure what is going on in the kitchen. I ordered 6 classic cold cut sandwiches with the veggies and jalapenos on the side (as we were not planning on eating the sandwiches until the next day at the airport). After receiving my order, I looked in the bag and asked again if there were jalapenos included, and the waitress emphatically said yes. Well, I just opened the bag and not only were the jalapenos not in the bag (this is the second time that they’ve forgotten peppers in one of my orders), AND the sandwiches only had a smathering of pâté. There are NO cold cuts in sight. The sandwiches were such a disappointment, and if the restaurant was open, I’d call to complain. I’ve uploaded a pic of the sandwhiches that we got. Again, no cold cuts at all. I have eaten there before, and I am not sure what is going on, but paying for $ 25 for sandwiches surely should include meat. Time to find another Vietnamese sandwich place.

The prices are super cheap and I love how the phở tastes. One of my favorite places to get some hot soup during the cold winter. The staff is nice and the place is always clean and neat! I would totally recommend this place to anyone who hasn’t tried phở just yet as they have a chicken phở so if you are not familiar with all the other terminologies of phở or not a big fan of all the other types of meat you can always get the chicken phở. Either way their phở in my opinion is one of the best phở of the area!

Unfortunately I have to write this review although I love PHO food. Upon entering the restaurant for lunch the I noticed dirty dishes everywhere, there was no where to sit because of this. There was also a bad smell coming from the kitchen. The waiters seemed bothered, didn’t want to help us… As a line grew behind us… We had no choose but to leave will not be back, with so many great Phở in the area!

I always order the vegetarian Phở. It is SOOO good! Add some Sriracha and BOOM perfection. It is most suitable for a cold or rainy day. BUT BEWARE … $ 10 minimum with cards.

The wife and I took the parents here for Phở as they never had it before!!!
It’s an intresting setup where you go and order in line and then find yourself a table.
Everything was great, good broth, nice meat, great noodles and rice paper rolls.

Great flavor, great menu, great service this place is my go to when I am in the mood for Phở

I love this Phở place that’s just right down the street from my house. They have really good sandwiches also. You won’t be disappointed if you are in the mood for Phở. Their meat are always fresh and thinly sliced. The staff are quick and friendly. It’s a really nice lil homey place. I don’t feel so guilty for leaving with a full belly because the food low in calories. Come give them a shot!

So the food here is decent but we found a new favorite place (Phở Chi) after we went here one night (8:30) pm and were turned away! The staff working said the kitchen is closed and they couldn’t seven us. The sign on the door reads the restaurant is open until 9pm. They should adhere to this time or switch the times. People eating saw that we were denied food and were very upset recommending we find another regular spot for Phở, so we did. Thank anyway but you just lost regular customers. Don’t be in such a rush to go home that you lose customers

WARNING: YOUR MONEY IS BETTER SPENT ELSEWHERE!
If I could give this place no stars I would. As a former long time customer, I have witnessed this place go downhill for many years. The food is mediocre (there is better Phở elsewhere in Gaithersburg), but aside from that, the customer service is absolutely abysmal.
Gone are the days when the wait staff would welcome you by name with a smile and treat your entire party with respect. I have watched the current wait staff selectively turn away customers consistently BEFORE closing time. Not only is this a bad business practice, it’s just plain rude. Also, if you are seated and like to enjoy your meal in peace without being rushed, this place is not for you.
If you have small children, do yourself a favor and choose another restaurant. This place is not kid friendly. God forbid your child sneezes too loud or has a moment. The wait staff may ask you to put a muzzle on your child using their job security as the reason why they are making such an unreasonable request. There is a nice authentic Phở restaurant nearby that will gladly welcome your kids and your business.
As other Unilocalers have mentioned, you are required to go to the register to place your order and pay for your food in advance. I suggest reserving your tip until after you have been served. I will just leave it at that.
Now for the food… Having had authentic Phở and other traditional Vietnamese cuisine offerings, trust me when I tell you the food is just OK. Nothing to write home to mom about. When it comes to the broth (a critical part of Phở) the flavor is lacking. However, the rolls are decent. After taking a year long hiatus from this restaurant, I decided to give it one more try. After my last visit, I definitely will not be coming back.

The food was good and tasty. They give u the option to mix and match. The meat is juicy and well cooked. The soup was also yummy. The place is clean with friendly and knowledgeable staff. The service is really quick. Overall, a good place to dine in.

I live near Phở 75 and enjoy their phở very much. I branched out and tried phở & grill today and I know I will go back to Phở 75 instead.
I always get the white meat chicken and at this restaurant it was so dry & chewy. They skim on basil as well as noodles.
I suggest Phở 75 instead, and it is even less expensive.

I waited for the second visit to put up this review. Just like your typical phở place, it’s just ok. But I’ve tried every version of their Vietnamese sandwhiches and they all have one thing in common. Their bread tastes old and stale. If you’ve had these sandwhiches before somewhere else, you know that the bread is an essential part, hek it might be the most important part. Pretty dissapointing. Stick with the mediocre phở and stay away from the old stale sandwhiches.

My fiancé and I were heading to Trader Joe’s one night after work and decided to grab an impromptu dinner here. We walked in awkwardly under the impression, we needed to be seated then order. In fact, this is one of those spots where you go to the counter, order and grab a number. They then bring the food to you.
My fiancé ordered the grilled chicken bahn mi. I had the the combination phở and fried spring rolls as well as the fresh summer rolls for appetizers. The food was okay. The bahn mi is better than the soup here. The soup was bland and the meat portion was ridiculously small. And it’s isn’t really the cheapest of the Phở places. I have to say for the MoCo, this is probably the worst Phở place we’ve been to. There are SO many good places in the area, and so this was just a disappointment.
The service was good.
Prices are a little higher than normal.
Food isn’t good.
Parking is easy for the most part, except when the shopping center is busy since they share the lot with other retail establishments and restaurants.
As others have mentioned, yes this definitely caters to the American palate.

I’m a Vietnamese just coming from Vietnam, and you gotta trust me, if you want a taste of Vietnam, don’t come here.
Phở: you’ll get better and fuller mouthful of meats, broth, and noodles from Phở Eatery. I’ll give this ⁴⁄₁₀.
Grill: unflavored. Everything is unflavored. From the meat to the rolls and the most important thing for Vietnamese food: the sauce. Oh my, I have never taste anything as tasteless as this.
Maybe I’m from Vietnam and the way we season back there is too strong compared to here, but this is the truth: if you want mediocre food, here is fine. If you really wanna know how Vietnamese food tastes like: either go to Vietnam or try another restaurant, maybe those in Eden.
Service never bothers me if the food is good. That’s enough for me to come back to a restaurant. In this case, bye for good.

Ah, the Phở and Grill… comfort food! Located near the trader Joes…
So as a regular, I always get the #4 small. There’s nothing to take home after this order and soup is almost gone too… I like the flavor and the meats. It could be a little better quality, but for me this place is just convenient to go to. Its near Lakeforest mall and the hmart is around the corner… so this is perfectly situated. The rolls are of sauces good and well rolled. Plenty of sauces on the tables.
The interior is nice and I like the décor. Very welcoming. Friendly staff and quick service.
Btw. They also serve bah mi sandwiches and Thai iced tea…

The reviews for this place are pretty good so I thought I would try it out.
I like the lean beef phở, which is something that they do not offer after chatting with an employee. He suggested that I order the #1, the medium rare eye round. It was a lean meat but way too rare for me. I opened the take out box when I got home and it was super rare, I saw blood from the meat — not for me. Medium is fine; I think of that as pink but not red… I know that the hot broth should ‘cook’ the phở but it didn’t make much of a difference when I tried that. I put the meat in the skillet and cooked it and it was fine.
I also has the summer rolls and those were good.
So because of the rare phở I’ll probably stick to other places that have more menu options.
The place was very clean, looks like a new establishment and the staff was pleasant.

There’s like a plethora of Unilocal reviews so I’ll add what’s memorable
They easily discovered we were virgins since we stood at the entrance
Go to the back, order, and find a seat for your tush
A cloudy, rainy, yucky, gloomy part of day calls for phở — phở sure
Customized #6 caught me eye — brisket and flank combo
He hearts pork banh mi so why break the tradition
Their chicken skewer arrive dark-​meated so no surprise ’twas moist
I live dangerously (at times) so I paired phở #6 with thai ice tea O_​O
Condensed milk plus lack of lactose tolerability equals parade in body
Include sriracha and jalapenos to be able to fly
His ice coffee wasn’t cloyingly sweet which we favor
*thumbs up and a wink*
We’ll unquestionably return for the service alone
