Five Vietnamese Dishes to Know and Where to Eat Them in Boston - Eater Boston

"Pho 1 Brighton (1799 Commonwealth Ave., Brighton) serves its bo kho with tons of thick rice noodles. The beef is perfectly tender and the broth is incredibly aromatic with an earthy flavor from the lemongrass and tomato paste. It also serves three other great Vietnamese soups — mi hai san (a seafood egg noodle soup), bun bo Hue (a beef and rice noodle soup from the central city Huế), and hu tieu (a shrimp and pork soup with a clear broth). Pho 1 Brighton is currently offering takeout, delivery, and indoor dining." - Karen Wilber

Pho #1 Vietnamese and Asian Fusion Restaurant Opens in Brighton - Eater Boston

"A restaurant called Pho #1 recently replaced Chilli Thai Bistro at 1799 Commonwealth Ave. in Brighton, right by the Chiswick stop on the Green Line, serving Vietnamese food and more. The Brighton location is the third for Pho #1, which also has locations in Waltham and Woburn, as an employee at the Waltham location confirmed to Eater. Chilli Thai Bistro had been operating in the Commonwealth Avenue space since early 2015. Pho #1’s menu features Vietnamese dishes as well as dishes from several other Asian cuisines; there’s satay, dumplings, banh mi, takoyaki, and more. Pho #1 also serves Vietnamese soups like bo vien (a noodle soup with beef meatballs) and, obviously, pho." - Terrence Doyle

Tak took amazing care of us when we came in for a late night meal. She was so sweet and helpful. The food was also very tasty and delicious. This was our first time but we will be definitely coming back. Lovely place!

An excellent value for the price. I had the Vietnamese sour soup shrimp, With a bowl of white rice. And that is enough for a nice brunch meal if you’re not hungry. And then I ordered the pad CU seafood dish to go. And even after it was heated up at home, it was also terrific. Great value for Boston.

Food was great. Love love crispy pork basil and many other dishes. Authentic taste. The server/owners are very nice. Very friendly. The price is reasonable. The restaurant looks clean and nice ambiance.

The vibes were nice and the servers/staff were very friendly. Unfortunately the food left a lot to be desired - I tried many different dishes and all of them were disappointing. The spring rolls were dry and had too much lettuce, the panh xeo crust was too thick and doughy, and the pho was lacking in flavor. The best dish we had was a Thai dish - the pad see ew… The menu just has way too many items, including a lot of Chinese and Korean cuisines. I would recommend downsizing it significantly to focus on a few quality dishes and to make it less overwhelming.

Love the food! And especially this dessert! They told me this is from traditional Thailand food and the original source is imported from Thailand.

Food is solid and very reasonably priced. Pad thai and Pho are good Thai tea is just a tad too sweet for me

This place is alright! I ordered Pad Thai for delivery. It’s not the best pad Thai I’ve ever had, but it was still pretty tasty! The pad Thai lacks the depth of flavors in an authentic version of the Thai national dish, but as a normal stir fried noodle dish, it was good for the price. I will definitely order from here again for the convenience and when I get a craving for a stir fried noodle dish.

Pho was solid for an evening dinner. Friends got other dishes and I took some photos! Overall it was a good experience and they seated us very fast for a large group

We went there for many times but the stuff are NOT friendly at all recently. Not offering water (but brought waters to other tables), didn't take the appetizer plate, didn't ask if we need anything and obviously the waiter was much friendly to two other white girls who sat next to us. This is not the FIRST time. Very rude. Won't come back anymore.

Was previously Pho 1 in Brighton, but changed the name so as not to be confused with other local restaurants that have the Pho 1 name. Serves excellent Thai and Vietnamese food. We have eaten inside here multiple times. Fresh ingredients, not greasy, great flavor, and everything we have eaten there has been terrific. The staff is friendly. The ambience is warm, and the restaurant is simple and clean. They serve beer a wine, and they do takeout. The prices are very reasonable.
