"Pho Hoa is our choice for best bowl of pho. The tables here each hold a pantry’s worth of chili paste and hot sauce, but you don’t need them - the rich, flavorful broth is good enough on its own. One day, some enterprising spa owner is going to make a killing by providing Pho Hoa broth baths." - dan secatore
"Phở Hòa is listed as one of the Dorchester Vietnamese favorites participating in the Little Saigon night market." - Erika Adams
"Celebrating a new partnership with Pho Hoa, Anh Hong unveiled a joint menu featuring a house special rice clay pot with seafood that’s a sizzling delight — piled with squid, crab, scallops, and shrimp so generous it reminded me of my grandma’s portions (food pushing is a love language, I’ve been told). My favorite part was the perfectly cooked rice, and the aromatic, crunchy cơm cháy (scorched rice) felt like the true treasure of the dish." - Erika Adams
"I was glad to see Anh Hong reborn inside Pho Hoa, where the Anh Hong team is serving its seven-course beef menu and other Vietnamese favorites in a familiar setting." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"A longstanding Fields Corner Vietnamese institution founded in 1992, known for authentic pho, other traditional Vietnamese soups, and broken rice plates as well as an atmosphere featuring landscape imagery, tall bamboo, and Vietnamese music. With founder Thanh Le stepping back and his younger family member balancing multiple restaurants, the business faced operational and neighborhood-charm challenges; a new ownership partnership brings Victoria Nguyen in as an equal partner and general manager while the elder founder remains an advisor. The collaboration will retain core pho and rice-plate offerings while adding a dedicated menu page and co-branding for the incoming partner’s popular family-style dishes — including seven-course beef and fish experiences, Vietnamese hot pot, hot-and-sour catfish soup, and caramelized catfish — with a refreshed menu planned for mid-February." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
