Pho 88

The Thai food here is really good! The noodles are delicious and full of flavor. The place has a friendly and welcoming vibe, and the service is great. I really enjoyed my meal and would definitely come back! 🍜🇹🇭

First time visit. Location is in a very high traffic area with parking in the rear off of a side street. Bright and clean inside. Fast and friendly service. Food was flavorful with a generous sized serving. I thought it was oddly weird that the waiter removed the chop sticks from our table while we were still dining even though we were using forks at that moment. Like they were a hot commodity and didn’t want them thrown away I suppose. 🙄 The staff handled complaints from customers regarding their food very calmly and without incident. Overall dining experience was relaxing and ok for lunch. Will be checking out other Pho restaurants in the area as well to determine my overall pick.

Absolutely love the food. You can smell the amazing cooking from outside. Everything was out of this world. Definitely going back.

Had to try out this Pho spot & give it a try. The food is good & not bad however the Pho just lacks flavor for me. The broth didn’t have much flavor. The rolls were good with the dipping sauce. Also the service could be better. We went in when the place was completely empty & waited about 15 minutes before they came up to us. Overall it’s ok!

First time trying Bún bò Huế and second time with Bò Kho...both soups were absolutely spectacular. I ordered them for delivery and, yes, I ate both the same day, one after the other, lol. The flavors were rich, bold, and incredibly comforting. The Bún bò Huế had just the right level of spice and depth...it's my first time trying it, and now I'm hooked. The Bò Kho, which I had once before, was just as amazing the second time....tender beef, aromatic broth, and perfectly balanced seasoning. I definitely need to visit the restaurant in person soon. If the delivery was this good, I can only imagine how great it must be fresh at the table. Highly recommend!!!!

Pho 88 is a go-to when I want real Vietnamese comfort food that hits the spot every time. The pho broth is flavorful and steaming hot, noodles are fresh, and portions are generous - exactly what you want on a busy day. I’ve tried a few of their dishes and none have disappointed. The staff are always friendly and quick to help, and the atmosphere is chill and welcoming. If you’re in Mills 50 and craving something satisfying and real, this place delivers.

The restaurant was exceptionally clean. It was bright, and roomy. Our server was friendly, and helpful. She told my grandson how to pronounce the Viet Namese dishes. She explained the different choices. When the food arrived it was the correct temperature, and beautifully plated. Everything thing tasted fresh. The tasted was perfect. We agreed that we would definitely return. If you are in the area stop by for a great meal.

I ordered soup noodles and fried noodles. When I got to the hospital, the soup noodles weren't hot at all and had no flavor. The fried noodles had wire in them, and most importantly, there was no fork. 🍴

The guy and I always get pho when we are in a new city together. So in Orlando, we had to find a place! We used Yelp to find Pho88! After an evening downtown, it made sense! We arrived and were seated right away! The young lady who seared us was very friendly! You could tell that this is a family run restaurant. We placed our orders very quickly as we knew what we wanted right away. Our bowls of pho came out fairly fast! I always taste the broth prior to dressing my bowl and this broth was so good! It was clear...a great sign...and very flavorful. And they did not skimp on the beef either! I thoroughly enjoyed this place and will definitely remember it for a future visit.

The pho soup base is pretty comparable to the ones in Los Angeles. I thought the food was delicious.

I absolutely love this spot for authentic pho! The flavors are rich, and you can tell the dishes are made with love. The ingredients are fresh, and the portions are generous--definitely one of the best spots in Orlando. The place itself is a little run-down, but honestly, that just adds to its charm. It feels like a hidden gem, where the focus is entirely on the food rather than flashy decor. The staff are friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. If you're looking for authentic Vietnamese food, this is the place to go. Don't let the modest surroundings fool you, the food is AMAZING!

A great local spot that has been there for years! You have to give it a try! They have all the classic Vietnamese dishes, but I can only speak about the pho. It's my go to every time! I work in the area, and what I love is you are in and out so quick. I walk in, seated immediately, order, and not 5 min later you are eating! Staff are always super friendly and quick to meet your needs. The broth at Pho 88 is super flavorful, and subtly complex. Not spicy, so don't fear! I us usually get the special, the brisket is a real treat! The setting is excactky what you want and expect. It's decorated with on brand Vietnamese iconography and it's clean and well kept! If you've never been, you have to stop by

Pad Thai was amazing!!! My friend loved the pho. I would go back again. Definitely get the pad thai.

The restaurant has an open concept, family style, well lit and clean. I had a basic pho, #19 pho tai chin and egg rolls as an appetizer. The price was $21 with the taxTo drink I had a sweet tea. All was really good :) and I would come again

I went to Pho 88 from the recommendation of a friend who loves it and it was a great place to go. We were seated right away and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. I had the chicken pho which was gluten free. The chicken and broth together were delicious and it was a good size portion. If you're in the Mills area I would definitely give this place a try!

Everything looked clean and bright inside but their indoor fountain wasn't running. We ordered the spring rolls with peanut sauce which was really good and a must order. We also ordered two hot teas and some fried honey shrimp with broccoli. There ended up being a sticker left on the bell peppers and we alerted the staff without sending it back or causing a raucous and they gave us a $10 off discount which I thought was really nice. Other than that all the food was good and I was happy with the service. However, I do miss how the hot tea used to come in a teapot with little cups.

This is a quiet resturant with a large dining area. I was surprised by the size of the resturant. There is plenty of lot parking around the building but also several street parking spots as well. The service was very fast. Within minutes of seating, we had waters and time to look over the menu. I would say the pricing is a bit higher than other Vietnamese places in town but I think the difference is in the portions. I ordered the pho with all the meats (I love tendon!) and took some home for lunch the next day. The broth is absolutely amazing. Perfect rainy day broth. I also got an order of the spring rolls which were the best rolls I have had in town. The filling did not fall out after my first bite and the peanut sauce was immaculate. My date got the curry and it also was a massive portion with plenty left over. She did mention it was a tad bit spicy for her but spice is unique to everyone. All in all, I'd definitely go back to this place. They had an interesting lunch menu but I'm not close enough to go during the week.

This WAS once our favorite Pho place! The subpar service received was inexcusable. I went to get Pho two weeks ago with my grandson while my daughter was admitted to the hospital. We were hungry And looking forward to a warm delicious pho to then return to the hospital. The restaurant only had about 4 tables taken, Our sever Andy H. Greeted us and sat us down. I ordered a kids (toddler) veggie rolls and then PHO, our food came and we ate. Our server never came to check on us, and as the restaurant became a bit busier he disappeared. Most of the table around us got served, checked on and received their checks. I started looking around for our server because we had been ready and with a toddler there's not much sitting around one can do. I finally caught his attention and asked for the check, he FLEW by is and just NODED. 10 minutes went by and I had to call another server and asked him to message our server again. NOTHING happened! Another 5 minutes and my grandson started getting antsy, so I get up and asked another server behind the cash register to please get our check. Our server finally appears with a weak apology saying he FORGOT!! At this point I can't even look at him! He stands almost next to me as I pay the lady awaiting a TIP!!? So I tipped him $1.00. Oh yeah ye sloppily packs the left over soup on a container without any sauce, chop sticks or garnishes which is the usual. We won't be back here . Thank God there are MANY MORE great pho restaurants in the area so it goodbye PHO 88! Sad sad service!

I recently visited Pho 88 with a friend. My friend ordered the Bun Bo Hue, and I had the Hu Tieu Mi. Both dishes were good. Service was decent. The experience was good overall.

Pho on god mode. Went after work and it cleansed my soul. Staff was nice. Good prices!

Food was good, basic, as expected...the ambience is very nice, service is very welcoming. A little bit pricey.

The location is quaint and the staff are all friendly. It's clean and the food is so good. My family and I wanted to try a new pho spot and stumbled across this one. It was a great find. We also had the five spice wings but my kids started eating them before I could take a picture. They said they were delicious and they were nice and crunchy.

Pho 88 Still a great place. Been here lots of times already. Always good. Highly Recommended.

Quiet, clean and quick service. Food is incredibly fresh and life giving-- taking half home! Very attentive and friendly staff. A family fave.

Located on a busy road, there is a decent number of parking available when you drive in. Restaurant is big and spacious, we were welcomed in immediately by the servers. I ordered a beef pho, which is usually served with the raw beef cooking in the pho broth. When the server brought the bowl out, the beef had been totally cooked already. I do prefer my beef to be raw in my pho when served to me. Otherwise the taste of the broth was light enough to satisfy my cravings. I also ordered the soursop smoothie which was delicious. Vietnamese restaurants usually have it on the menu but they usually don't have it available in my experience, so I was happy that they had it when I was there.

The place I usually order from had a super long wait so I decided to try out Pho 88 again after not having them for a few years. Man, it was AMAZING, before I was getting the traditional beef broth, but this time I tried their chicken broth (Pho Ga) and it was killer. Hands down the best bowl of pho I have ever had. Their fried quail is always excellent as well. I will start ordering from here primarily.

This restaurant is spacious and the service was good. Meal wasn't so great. Could have gotten our money's worth if we just had went to the Vietnamese restaurant down that street. That place is a hit every time, but try something new right? The Pho was flavorful and aromatic, but they certainly skimped on the protein. The rice plate was cold and the beef/pork were shredded and sort of tasted spoiled. 100% not a fan of a rice plate that doesn't require a knife to cut into the meat. They used the same meat in the grilled pork spring roll. Guess they repurpose it for other items on the menu here as well.

Food is always good and service is good too. My go to spot when in town ! Has a big menu and options available even for a picky eater

Although the interior of this restaurant isn't the prettiest, the food is pretty good, I got some pho and it hit the spot. The restaurant was pretty busy when I got there so clearly it's a great spot.

I met a friend who was raving about this place last week, and I became a fan myself by the end! Atmosphere is casual, but a little more upscale compared to other Vietnamese places. Service was friendly and quick, I got my water about 5 minutes after I sat down. The menu is extensive with a variety of options, and the pictures helped make my choice easier. I chose the chicken fried rice, which reminded me why that used to be my favorite comfort meal. They made it perfectly. and there were no leftovers to take home!

After many years I come back to Orlando. Pho 88 used to be packed. Look at it now. TBH food is terrible service bad tables are dirty. Very disappointed. No wonder all Vietnamese disappear. Should not be this bad. Won't come back and won't recommend

I ordered tom yum soup. Well priced. It was tasty. Not that spicy. It was on the sweeter side. Not a stingy in the ingredients. Also ordered vegetable spring rolls. It was fresh and the way I expected it. Service was fast. Place is clean. Ambience was ok.

First time trying Pho and this place made me a fan! The restaurant was very spacious with tons of open seating and our server was wonderful! For an appetizer I got the Krab Cream Cheese Fried Rolls and highly recommend them! For my entree I tried the #15 Phở Tái - it was simple and delicious!

Been here twice, second time around, the prices have gone up quite a bit which is fine because everything is going up in price. My problem is I'm paying more money for less food...You can see from my pic the first time going months ago, the chicken pho was pretty full, plenty noodles and chicken. Second time... you can barely see the contents in the bowl. Don't have a problem with price increases but at least give the same amount of food.... And I agree with others, the service is pretty bland so don't expect much there.

During the day it's a bit empty but at dinner time it tends to be packed. The staff is nice but a little slow. The ambiance itself is nice and quit not too much noise for it being right on mills. The pho was good quality, not the best but good for the price.

Cute place. Good food fixed fresh. I had beef fried rice. Hubby had pork noodles and daughter had orange shrimp with broccoli. All yummmy. Hard parking in from mills Ave.

KUDOS and thanks to the amazing staff for providing supreme quality customer service! The food was delicious! I ordered the seafood porridge and it was out of this world! The ambiance was quiet and well paced! I highly recommend all to come and visit to support this local business!

This place is one of the original OG pho spots in the area. Been here a few times over the years but finally get a chance to review it. The big strength of this place is that the restaurant is spacious with a lot of seating so you get quickly seated and quickly served. The pho is flavorful and consistent. It isn't the lightest broth but not too heavy and oily either. Also this is one of the few pho places that allows you to choose pho tai and meatballs in the same bowl, for some reason a lot of pho places don't have this as an option unless you go to one of the "build your own pho bowl" places in town. This place has been around forever and has stood the test of the time so they must be doing something right!

Pho 88 is a classic staple in Mill50. I usually end up with some kind of hot beefy or chicken pho with all the fixings and they have the best spring rolls!

This was my first time visiting Pho 88, and I stopped by for takeout. I really wanted to love their food, but they came up short in flavor. I ordered their Stir Fried Egg Noodles with bean sprouts, carrots, chives Thập Cẩm (combination beef, chicken, and shrimp) and their Pad Thai. Neither dish stood out and both lacked seasoning. I read reviews about guests having varied experiences, so I was hoping for a positive one. With several Vietnamese restaurants in the area, I will likely go to another place next time to give them a try.

The best soup in town. Great service great food great atmosphere. Great location. Don't forget the sandwiches and the Vietnamese coffee.!! this place is awesome

This is the best spot for Pho in Orlando!!! I'm their biggest customer, I go here once a week ask get a combination pho, it's phenomenal. They are consistent, fast, and amazing!

Had a great lunch today #48 a chicken bun. I was so hungry I forget to get a picture. It's been awhile since I've had Vietnamese. With my go to Vietnamese restaurant now closed this comes in as a good contender. We also had a chicken summer roll that was excellent.

The service was a bit slow but the food was a good deal and the flavor was there. We went with a group of 6 and we had no problem getting a table. The restaurant is nothing fancy so it's perfect for a group meal at a decent price. Note: If you order their Pad Thai it is by default chicken and shrimp so specify if you want one or the other.

Put a bib on and dive in to amazing Pho! Pho 88 is super efficient in their service and super delicious in their food. We loved everything we ate. There is so much soup in the bowl, it can be lunch the next day. This Vietnamese restaurant just became our go to' when we want an amazing bowl of Pho!

Such good flavor!! It was very quick service despite it having a good amount of people sitting

I was craving Vietnamese food so I found this place from Google and gave it a try! I walked right in and got seated right away. Got the white rice and beef and it was pretty good and then the taro bubble tea!

I have been going to Pho 88 for years and last night was just awful. All of their sauces, garlic chili sauce and siracha were heavily watered down. It literally came out like soup. I asked the server why the sauces lacked consistency and he said they had to make it in house because they ran out?! That is a bunch of bs. I have been going here for years and purchase the same sauces at the asian market across the street. They are obviously trying to cut costs, which is very sad considering their prices have went up significantly. I understand food prices going up, but please don't do it at the expense that your food quality goes down. Very disappointing. Will not return.

We had rolls and Pho. The portions included lots of noodles and meat for the price. So many cooks and servers helps food come out fast.

Never mind at this place - we hadn't had pho in Lord knows how long. So one day last week, the 'urge' got the better of us, driving us uptown, mask in hand (or "on face" as the case might be). They don't have outdoor seating at Pho 88, as you may know, but tables are properly spaced, and the wait staff are masked. Maybe it's the mischievous side of me thinking this (meaning, take it with a pinch of salt when I say this), but the little sanitizer they had on every table gave me an impression opposite to what was intended: I thought, (again, half-jokingly), oh - are they saying YOU, the customer do all the cleaning and precautions, cuz WE aren't doing it! Like I said, for the 3rd time, it's a joke - don't send any hate mail please. We settled on the Đặc Biệt, #22, and one of the lunch specials, the Xào Kiểu Thái, which they put in quotes as pad thai. If you're expecting that (pad thai), you may be disappointed - in my judgment it's not anything like pad thai, being very red and very sweet, and devoid of the 'wok' flavor that a good pad thai brings, lacking even in the signature peanut taste. The Đặc Biệt was very good: if I have a small complaint (or 2, or 3): it's almost too much meat! I would have traded a tripe or a tendon for a bit more noodles and more beef ball (it's either just half or one that we got). I think next time I might try #18, Tái, Bò Viên, but then I'd get no tendon or tripe. I know - what they need to do is turn this into a "pick your own" pho shop - well, c'mon: nobody's doing it yet! One last point: they really DO need to change the menu prices on their own site. In this day and age, you should not be allowed to jack up the price without first updating your online information, don't you think?

We came for lunch and it was a bit empty, we had a girl as our waitress and she was wonderful. Our order was perfect and she was very attentive. We ordered : pho with all meats including meatballs I believe number 22 : super delicious and hearty meal. The meat was okay but the broth and noodle were amazing. Pho with brisket number 19 : this was my favorite as it had the most flavorful meat and broth. I devoured it and highly recommend. Also portions are HUGE family style for all of these is very doable Rice porridge with meat HIGHLIGHT OF OUR MEAL!! The porridge was the best with a thick hearty broth and some type of meat that seemed minced. The rice was perfectly cooked and our whole table agreed this was the standout. DONT MISS IT Savory pancake was not to our liking, the pancake was thick af and cold. Egg rolls not my favorite either but overall crunchy and doable. Two per order Honestly this place has some highlights the pho and porridge are things I would go back for. The service was also lovely!

I was a bit disappointed with the food as Orlando has many Vietnamese restaurants, but I was underwhelmed with this one. The pho broth was weak and lacked the intensity to flavor the noodles. Also, the grilled pork and beef combo was served in shreds. It also lacked flavor and since it was sliced thin, dry. I got an upset stomach form the later dish. I think one of the ingredients was pre-made and was sitting around. High points: It has a private parking lot. The coffee is strong. The crepe and fresh rolls were decent. Forget the spring rolls.

I head over to Pho 88 at least once a week. I can get the same thing time and time again and it is exactly what I expect. Love it. - Shrimp and pork spring rolls, always fresh and who doesn't love peanut sauce! - #19 Pho with eye round steak and brisket, delicious and filling, really enjoy making this extra spicy with Sriracha and Chili Sauce. #50 Bun with pork and fried egg roll, great flavor, fresh veggies, I like it with extra fish sauce. #65 Curry noodles - I like this one with beef and shrimp, I always need extra protein added, but that is just me.

We came here for lunch on a Thursday and it was reasonably busy. Parking was definitely a struggle. The restaurant has done a great job of socially distancing all the tables so they're 6 feet apart minimum. Our server was quick and brought the food out at a timely manner. We ordered the pork and shrimp spring rolls as an appetizer. Not bad, although lacking in pork. The soybean milk is cold and refreshing, and the sam bo luong is herbal and sweet. I ordered the com dac biet, which is the rice platter that comes with grilled pork, grilled shrimp, grilled beef, egg meatloaf, pork skin, a fried egg, pickled vegetables, and nuoc mam cham. The pork was flavorful and the shrimp was well-cooked. I thought they would come out on the bone but they come out already sliced. The beef was served in tiny strips but they were tender. I tried my boyfriend's pho and the broth was pretty good. It was a pretty big bowl too as he struggled to finish it. Good, authentic Vietnamese food. I love supporting local businesses!

Solid broth. It was savory and hearty! My only complaint was that the broth wasn't piping hot. Portion was ample and plenty of meat. Veggies was fresh. I hate when pho places give wilted or dying veggies so this was a huge plus and shows they care about what they serve their customers. I also ordered the vietnamese coffee. It wasn't served the traditional way but it was still delicious and strong. My boyfriend got the same bowl of pho with a side of quail eggs. He likes his rare beef on the side so he can cook it himself. He had the same complaint that three broth wasn't as hot as he would like it. Place was pretty big and clean. It didn't smell. Bathroom was also clean. We were there when they first opened since we were headed to see my niece in Tampa. We would definitely go back. Maybe the broth will be piping hot next time but yes we'd definitely go back.

Great food and fast! They speak Vietnamese and there are some authentic dishes on the menu. I am def coming back jere tor the bun rieu

My favorite thing about this place is its location. You can get your bowl of pho and then walk to ROYALTEA for a delicious post-meal drink (recommend a cheese foam topped one) or King Bao to grab some steamed buns for a little something to munch on later. As the name implies, they are known for their pho and they do a good job. The prices are decent have other things outside of just pho too. The service can be a little bit stalled and delayed at moments so you may have to get their attention, but once you do it's fine. I'll definitely come back and when I do I'll try to get something other than pho to see how it compares. All in all, it's a staple place on Colonial Drive and will probably be here for a good while.
