Customer Reviews
This is a gem! The bad reviews are from quite a while ago and should be deleted by Google as the old ones don't pertain to the new owners. My husband devoured his pho and I enjoyed every bite of my bún bò huê, a very complex soup. It was very authentic, flavorful, and fresh. I'm not big on the blood cube, but I was willing to try it, since everything else was so good. It was perfect. If you're squeemish about it, just ask for the soup without it. Same with the pig knuckle. I do like the pig knuckle and it was also done right. But again, you can ask them to omit this. There will be plenty of other tender meat in the soup. The flavors were all on point! This is one of the best bún bò huês I've ever had. I didn't take pictures, but I'll include a poster that's on the window, because this is exactly how it looked. The pho broth was made from scratch and with real beef bones. Here you'll get the authentic bone broth that's cooked for 30 hours. I'm going to take all my friends here for Vietnamese. And I'll be back to try all their other entrees and appetizers. My husband also got the Vietnamese iced coffee and it's delicious. It's authentic and they give you a good sized cup (not the small cup). I gave the atmosphere 3 stars, because it's not anything exciting. Just a diner feel, but it's clean and tidy. I do like that there are some booth seats though. Support this awesome restaurant. The owners are so nice and they're definitely real chefs.
I am so happy to have found a good viet place here in San Antonio. Coming from Houston it was hard to find a place that really specializes in a good pho broth or make a great banh mi. I will 100% be coming back. Excited to try the Bun Bo Hue!
I’ve been looking for a Pho spot for three years. I finally found the place to be. I treat myself once a week. One of the things I love is they have spicy broth. I always order the shrimp Pho with spicy broth. It taste so so good. It helps when the establishment is clean. I can’t wait until they open 7 days a week.
First time here, first time having pho! Service was great! Not a busy environment, greeted us immediately when we came in to sit us down. They were patient with my ordering since it was my first time. I ordered the combination pho. Delicious! The broth alone is so light, full of flavor. Added basil, limes, all of the bean sprouts. Mixed some of the siracha with the hoisin sauce separately to dip for the meats. Oh my, I’ll be coming back for sure. Also, tried 2 of their appetizer dishes. Also delicious!
This is hands down the best Pho restaurant in town. The broth is the real deal and not made with powder. It’s cooked for 24 hours and has minimal msg. If you’re looking for authentic, healthy, and great tasting Pho, check out this place.
