Sidestreet Pho and Grill

This place has amazing food and amazing customer service. Love this place. You can bring your own wine since they do not serve alcohol however you will need to bring a receipt. They will provide an ice bucket. It’s awesome!

The wonderful service continues!!! They aim to please. And all menu items are delicious with plenty of parking all the time! Love love this place!

The waiter was not very attentive not helpful. My food was ok but I drove out from the strip and was a little disappointed. I will try another place before returning

My new favorite place! The service is outstanding and the food is superb!!! The place is very clean! Finally a place where everything is made fresh and not frozen!
The owner is amazing! Made us feel very welcomed! Thank you guys!

Coming from a town without a Phở place and then moving here in Vegas I’m just so glad I have a Phở place within reach.
Love that you can choose 3 types of meat for your Phở and customize it for your liking. They also have tons of variety which can be overwhelming but I’m glad there are choices.
It was also my first time trying a vermicelli bowl since I wasn’t in the mood for soup and I surprisingly loved it. I wish it had more meat though but it was still very tasty.
The place is clean and nice compared to other Phở places I’ve been it’s quite modern. Would definitely go back here for my Phở fix.

This restaurant is located in a shopping center on Durango and Desert Inn. I visited this establishment during the evening on a weekday near closing time.
Atmosphere: Organized, lively
Even when the is place is almost closing, the place is still booming and patrons are still coming in.
Service: Quick and Slick, Nothing spectacular
Upon ordering, they did not ask me for what drink I wanted and automatically gave me a water. I don’t really appreciate people assuming I just want to drink water, but I let that slide. My bowl of phở that I had ordered was delivered to me rather quickly upon ordering.
Food: Pretty good, but a little disappointing
I received my food pretty quickly, which was a bowl of phở with three different types of meats in it. I was also given a plate of vegetables (bean sprouts, mint leaves, jalapenos). I was disappointed on how little noodles I actually received in my bowl. The meats that I ordered, however, were totally up to par. The broth was flavorful as well.
The bowl overall was worth the price of what I paid for, but the lack of noodles was the eventual downfall.
Overall: Worth a visit! MIGHT come back
Totally worth a try, I might try something else on the menu. The phở I had was nothing special, but still tasty. I felt like my experience was a little under-​valued, but don’t let that stop you from having some Viet food.

I found this rare, good Vietnamese Restaurant, three years ago.
And just this year, this was my first time to eat there.
The owners did change the name of the place.
It was quite busy when we arrived around late noon,
We were lucky to get a table. Customer service was mediocre.
The Food service was quick.
I ordered my favorite, BUN GRILLED CHICKEN VERMICELLI
BOWL…it was really delicious.
I would come here again, because they have take out orders,
I think.

Phở a good time, you may want to drop by here (I know I know. Please put the tomatoes away). We decided not to drive all the way to Chinatown for phở and stopped by here. It wasn’t my first choice or my second choice. I wanted to try another new one (to us) around the same general area, but it closed at 9, so we aimed the old VW and came here since they close at 10.
It’s a modern looking design with street signs inside. No doubt to help those too drunkard from strong Vietnamese coffee from forgetting their table?
So the neat thing here is that you can build your own phở and choose your meats: flank, brisket, tendon, tripe, round steak. You choose 3. I like my meat rare so I ordered it on the side. Just make sure your soup is boiling hot (that darn Phở #1 used to be consistently hot and I can order beef on the side but now it’s safer to just order it in the soup so it’s still cooked and not raw).
The tendon was cooked till tender and the round steak was nicely cut, as in no sinews but a nice piece of tender meat. I didn’t have fatty meat that you have at Phở So #1 now. They used to be lean meats but I think they thought we wouldn’t be able to tell the yellow fat clinging to the beef and the fatty oil floating on their soup now. As this restaurant and No 8 proves, yes it can be lean, Mr. Phở So #1 (#2 more like it).
The broth here is pretty good but not as flavorful as it could be. I added Siracha for more flavor. I usually leave it out of the soup if it tastes good enough. BUT, to be fair, I didn’t feel the need to drink my glass of water. Usually at their phở restaurants, the msg is heavy enough to make you drink like a camel (and pee like a horse). A hour later I am still not that thirsty.
Overall very friendly staff and the place is very clean (again Mr Phở So #1, your floors don’t need to be sticky and neither do the tables. I can’t believe I’ve been eating there since the late 90s). So if you don’t want to drive all the way to Ctown, (phogeddaboutit? Uh oh, I’ve officially tried to steal it from mob movies and the dude advertising for San Gennaro Festival. He and De Niro gonna be mad. My next Unilocal review may be written wearing cement shoes.) this is a nice alternative. Oh yes, you can choose a large for $ 9.50 (?75) or a smaller one for a buck less I think. At least they don’t default to large like #8.

This place is great! I have visited twice now and both times have been good experiences. There’s always friendly people working and great phở! I recommend ordering a small phở with the brisket and meatball. So good!
The prices aren’t bad either! Can’t beat $ 8 for a big bowl of phở! My boyfriend and I will definitely be back.

SUPER impressed with their service!
I called in for a take-​out order just to save time. When I got there, they weren’t done with my food but I didn’t mind since I came about 10 minutes earlier than expected. But what impressed me was typically when I would order take-​out at other restaurants and my food wasn’t ready, I would just sit on the side and wait for it to be done. But with Sidestreet, not ONLY did they brought me water to drink while waiting, they also angled the TV towards my direction so I could watch it clearly while waiting. WOW!!!
The food was great and everything was reasonably priced! I’ve tried several items on their menu including:
Fresh Spring Roll with Grilled Pork: My first time ordering Spring Rolls that had grilled pork instead of shrimp! To my surprise it’s still very refreshing regardless of the grilled meat. I did opt out of the mint just so it’s not too overwhelming
Wonton Soup: FYI this does NOT come with noodles but very tasty and filling nonetheless! It comes with several LARGE pieces of wonton so even without the noodles, you can easily consider this an entrée.
Lemongrass Chicken Rice Plate: So much bang for your buck! It also comes with shredded pork skin and an egg loaf
Grilled Chicken with Rice Noodle: basically like the rice plate except with noodles!
Very satisfied! There’s a reason they’re usually if not always full!

They forgot one of our orders, the food was bland, and I don’t eat pork and when I ordered the shrimp plate without pork, somehow pork was in my food.

An amazing phở restaurant outside of Chinatown? Is there such a thing? Yes! I’ve been getting boba next door every week and I’ve been missing out on getting lunch here! I was actually surprised to see dishes other than phở. I tried the Lemongrass Chicken ‘Bun’ which sounds like something in a steam bun, but it’s not! There’s vermicelli noodles in the bottom of the bowl with vegetables on top and chicken on top of that. It actually filled me up! The chicken was also juicy and flavorful. The service was great as well, never had my glass half empty. Only thing I recommend is not sitting next to the bar as it gets cold there.

I came here over FIVE times here and it’s GOOD! I always order the rice plates and the portion is GOOD and BIG! The service here is great and the server always comes to see if we need anything. The atmosphere here is clean. I recommend coming here because this place is one of the BEST VIETNAMESE RESTAURANTS IN VEGAS!

Review on take out: called and placed order for take out, told me about 10 minutes which it what it takes me to get there. As soon as I got to the restaurant, my food was ready! Ordered 2 vermicelli bowls one with grilled pork, grilled shrimp and egg roll and the other with grilled beef, grilled shrimp and egg roll. Total came out to about $ 23. When we brought the food home we were surprised of size of the portions, they were huge! They included the sauce on the side along with a side of chili sauce too. Both dishes were filling, delicious and refreshing. The only thing I should’ve asked for was extra sauce on the side since I since I usually like a lot of sauce/​dressing. Will definitely come back, the workers were all very nice, food is good and portions are hearty. Will return for either take out and/​or dine in!

Sidestreet is located in the same plaza as Sen of Japan at the corner of Desert Inn and Durango. Unlike many, I’m not a big fan of phở. When I go out for Vietnamese it’s more than likely I get a plate of broken rice or bún instead.
Their grilled pork could have been more charred, but the deftly seasoned pig and crispy egg rolls made the bún cha gio thit neon ($ 8.95) a satisfying dish. A better dish was the Bún Cha Gio Ga Nuong ($ 8.95) — tender slices of chicken breast glistening with oil atop a generous amount of noodles. The broken rice was decent, too. An order of grilled pork chop showed good depth of flavor and a good sear on the meat. A to-​go order of it came with noodles and a separate container with the tiny grains of broken rice.
Much of the interior remains unchanged from the previous tenants (Oriental House), with wooden columns supporting a faux street scene roofline along the kitchen area and dining room. Fit for dining in or take out, Sidestreet offers up some decent Vietnamese for those not wanting to travel farther down Spring Mountain Road than they have to.

Had Vermicelli tonight, I loved it.
I think there were more ingredients then other places it was absolutely huge. I am bring to find my new Phở spot this is a 3 time now so I think they have won me over.
Yay my new Phở spot! :D

Pretty top quality phở in Vegas, despite its maybe less than authentic name. After eating one too many buffets in Vegas, my parents was ready for some good old fashion Vietnamese food and my sister found this on Unilocal and thought the reviews and photos looked good.
When my brother heard the name, «Sidesheet Phở and Grill,» he was a little hesitant. But when we got their we saw the Asian staff and other Asian customers and felt reassured. The phở was really good, as was the spring rolls and the egg rolls.
Service was also good, plus we are about 14 people 7 kids, 7 adults and they were super accomodating for our large party.

I was craving phở to get rid of my hangover. You can order a small or a large bowl of phở for $ 7.95 or $ 8.95. It’s a build your own phở place where you can choose up to three meats. They have six meats to choose from: tai (rare steak), gan (tendon), sach (tripe), bo vien (meatball), chin (flank), and nam (brisket). You can get Phở Dac Biet with all six meats for $ 9.50 or Phở Ga (chicken phở) for $ 8.95. I’m boring so I went with a small bowl of Phở Tai. It was just the right amount. My broth was light, refreshing, citrusy, and not greasy.
I also ordered Cha Gio for $ 5.50. OMG! Excuse my French but these are the best PHOking fried egg rolls I’ve had in Vegas so far. I haven’t been to many Vietnamese restaurants in Vegas but please let me know if you know of any better egg rolls than the ones they serve here.
They also have a small bakery which I was too full to try. I didn’t see many Chinese dishes. They serve mostly Vietnamese food. The décor of this restaurant is cute. It looks like an outdoor café with cute street signs such as Phở Blvd adorned with lots of plants & Asian style roofing.
Service was quick and friendly. The young waitress took my order, the food came out quickly, and in a reasonable time. She even checked up on me which is unheard of in most phở restaurants. However, it took a while to get my bill but they were busy so no worries.
I will definitely be back for those delicious, fried egg rolls!

It’s rare that I give out 5 stars. This place has been on my bookmarks for a long time, as my usual Phở eating friend always likes to head to Chinatown. Well, she’s not around, so I dropped in here on a Friday night around 7pm to give it a try.
Nice big space with plenty of tables. A little confusing where to go to be seated but a lovely young lady saw me and escorted me to a table. The place was probably ½ full, but only the girl and the owner were working the tables. And they were moving fast… I ordered and had food in front of me within 15 minutes. Excellent service ⁵⁄₅.
I had the Phở Tai Nam and a BBQ pork spring roll. The Phở was very good, had a light, citrus broth before I even added lime. Plenty of meat, probably more meat in this bowl than any other place in town I have been. $ 7.95 for a small and it is plenty. The BBQ pork spring roll was also very good, with plenty of BBQ pork and not just all noodles. The flavor of the cilantro came through nicely. Add 2.99 for a thai ice tea and my bill was only $ 16+. ⁵⁄₅ for the food.
Now I wish I had come here earlier because its convenient to where I live and has good food. The owner was friendly and proud of his place, and I could see why because this is a nice place to get some food and a great value!

Who do you ask when you want authentic phở?
This isn’t a trick question. You ask none other than the Vietnamese people on where to go on what the phở is up. So my nail lady and I were having a chat, and she suggested this place, giving me their business card. I thought, «Really? This place sounds super American.» I borderline questioned her motive of promoting the business. Maybe so.
She claimed it was authentic and good phở so I wasn’t going to argue.
Beef phở– 3.5 stars. The phở was good, but I didn’t think it was the best I’ve ever had. The broth was average to me. I still need to find mind blowing phở like the one’s in garden grove area. :(
Grilled pork chops– 5 stars. The bomb! Great texture, juicy, and awesome flavor. The only reason I didn’t like it was because it was too small in portion. My fat ass wanted more, and I mean tons of it. The egg in it is super yummy has vermicelli noodles mixed in. Shredded pork was delish.
I’ll be back for more to try their other dishes, but for now, this place gets my 4 stars for food, service, and the interior being a super cool spot.
