The One Pho

The best Vietnamese restaurant in the Austin metro. I've been looking all over town reviewing Vietnamese restaurants to find quality equal to or better than I found at home in Houston. This is that place. The best pho I've had was their Bone Marrow Hot Stone Pho. Rich, savory, and DEEP bone broth plus house made noodles. The best Banh Mi I've had was their Coldcut Style Banh Mi. Amazing baguettes, pate, and ample meats. A new dish I tried was their Bò Né Combo (House Favorite Combo), which blew me and partner away. The Vietnamese sausage & meatball were flavor explosions. Their Kumquat Sugarcane Juice was the best I've had as well. Sure it can be a bit pricey for some items, but it's on par for Austin pricing and all the items were worth EVERY PENNY. I cannot say more good things about this place. I live closer to Austin staples like Fresh Bowl, Pho Phong Luu, Sip Pho, Bep Saigon, Tan My, and Pho Saigon, but no longer feel the need to go to these restaurants anymore. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Austin now.

Very friendly staff who provided excellent customer service. I have to say sometimes they are a little pushy about having you order quickly but their menu is so big, which makes it hard to choose right away. The baked bone marrow is tasty, just the right amount of seasoning and super soft. The crunchy baked catfish requires a pre order. The prices listed on their website are incorrect. You can choose from small, medium, or large fish depending on the number of people in your party. The meal comes with spring roll paper, dipping sauce of your choice, and a big plate of veggies. I wished that they gave us more of each veggie instead of just romaine lettuce. The fish was super flaky and soft. I had 4 adults in my party and it was enough for us along with two appetizers. I heard from a friend that they make fresh noodles in house but you must request for them. Highly recommend this place even through their prices are a little higher than some places.

Great lunch spot. Very fast service. Delicious pho Had the classic pho w rare beef And regulat noodles. (You can choose homemade noodles as well I believe)

I have tried their soup and vermicelli bowls. The food is fresh and tasty. The place is clean and staff is friendly and attentive. I love their beef soup the best. My new favorite destination when craving for Vietnamese food.

Went to dine in once and had a good experience. Good portion size. Then ordered to-go today, this is the portion of meat. Way smaller than dine in. The tiny piece on the fork is all the beef that we got. It was literally 3 beef slices.

The One Pho is a great spot for Vietnamese food! We ordered a variety of dishes to try a bit of everything, and it was all very tasty—fresh ingredients, rich flavors, and well-prepared. The service was also excellent—friendly, attentive, and fast. It’s the kind of place where you feel welcomed as soon as you walk in. Delicious food, great service, and definitely a place we’d come back to when we’re craving good pho and more!

such a good price for a large portion like that, love the food, love the restaurant, love the staffs, fast service too, no wait on table only downpoint was had to line up to use the restroom, other than that, perfect amazing place for vietnamese food dine in

4 big eaters, 2 who've spent time in Asia, 1 extensively in Vietnam. The menu was large, and included both traditional appetizer and drink selections. No bia hoi/bia tuoi here, though! But they even had flan on offer for dessert. We started with fresh spring rolls (pork ond shrimp) which were huge. 3 had the ribeye pho, and I did traditional dry noodles with sauce and condiments. Everything was fresh ingredients, big portions, and attentive service. 2 couldn't finish and took the rest as takeaway. When over 1/2 the paying customers are Vietnamese themselves, you know you are on to A Good Thing.

After searching the Austin metro area for the best pho, I've finally found it. The hot stone pho here is special. It is expensive, but it is worth every penny. What sets it apart is the complex, rich, deep umami broth. We had the Bone Marrow Hot Stone Pho and The One Pho Hot Stone Special. Both were incredible. I will say, though, for The One Pho Hot Stone Special, the beef rib & poached egg are nothing special. Just get the regular Wagyu Beef Hot Stone Pho instead for $10 less. The other pho had the bone marrow & bread with it which was very, very tasty. I will be back for the Bò Né Đặc Biệt, Hủ Tiếu, Cơm Sườn nướng, and Bánh mì. Lastly, a big surprise was how good the kumquat sugarcane juice was. Service was prompt & the server was polite. The restaurant was cozy, but nothing crazy. I did find the openness of the staff area to be very interesting. Overall, amazing food (but kinda pricey). 100% recommend to anyone looking for the best pho in town.

One of the better pho spots here while you wait for your Costco tire to get patched. The normal sized portion is really big. Prices are good. Service was also really good. The appetizer we got was the brisket bun. For $10 it was kind of underwhelming for the price, size, & what the dish was. The viet coffee although good was also kind of disappointing since it came in 75% ice and barely any coffee. The staff was nice enough to fill it some more. But there was so much ice it was not also. Other than that definitely come here for the pho. The menu is actually quite extensive.

This hidden gem, wonderful! Let's talk about the ambiance, the place is pretty chill and quite hidden, but has amazing customer service. My friend and I were seated immediately and received our food quickly. I had the beef and tripe with fresh noodles P5 and she had the B4 and said that it really hit the spot. The pho was a little bland, but I've heard that they are known for their other dishes, specifically the bò né, so if you have a chance to go, get that.

Had a pho craving up north and finally dropped into The One Pho off Research--looked like the kind of spot that takes broth seriously. Atmosphere: Clean, bright, and casual--easy in-and-out strip-center setup with plenty of parking. Good for a quick solo bowl or a low-key dinner; tables are spaced well enough that you're not elbow-to-elbow when the room fills. Food: Went classic first: pho tái with add-on brisket. Broth leans clear and beefy with a gentle spice backbone--comforting without feeling flat. Thin-sliced steak softens right away; brisket brings that deeper, stewy note. On round two, I tried their Hot Stone Pho--fun twist that keeps the broth piping to the last slurp; great if you linger or share bites. Also split spring rolls (tight wrap, herbs present) and a banh mi on the side--crusty bread, balanced pickles, not drowning in sauce. Service: Counter-order or sit and they'll take care of you--either way, food hits fast. Staff checked on heat level and offered extra herbs/lemons without the usual arm-wave. Even at dinner rush the pace stayed steady and the bowls landed hot (the stone pot helps). Wrap-up: Steady, satisfying pho with a couple of fun swings (hot stone, catfish) and service that keeps the bowls moving. If you want a comforting beefy broth without trekking across town, this is an easy add to the north Austin rotation.

I am glad we tried this place. The service was good and their menu had some unique items on it that you wouldn't find at most Vietnamese restaurants. The pho was phine (see what I did there?) it wasn't as rich and complex as some pho broths are. I liked it but it was definitely light on flavor. The meat seemed like it was good quantity and the portion was good too. My husband had a dish with tomato sauce, different meats and an egg and it came with a baguette. The bread was excellent. So light yet crispy. The dish was unique and tasty but he wouldn't order it again. Give them a try!

Stumbled on this place after a costco run and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. One of the most flavorful vegan broths I can find in Austin and packed with fresh veggies and tofu unlike many other places. They also had the option for fresh noodles which were amazing. The garlic tofu buns were stand out for me - so packed with flavor and absolutely divine. Overall value is so good for the price and taste was amazing! I will be back.

Pleasantly surprised by this place :) the beef pho was delicious and very flavorful in my opinion. And I've traveled to Vietnam! We also got the lemongrass beef bahn mi and my husband said it's the best he's ever had! There is a super flavorful sauce in the sandwich that really blows it away. Will come again! Only got takeout so can't speak to ambiance but seems like a traditional low key place.

The staff was friendly and seated us promptly, which was a good start. Unfortunately, the dining experience became uneven once food service began. Our dishes came out at very different times, leaving some of us sitting and watching others eat both at the beginning and the end of the meal, which really disrupted the experience. Another frustration was that several items listed on their online menu are no longer available, including the beer and wine selection. That was disappointing, as the availability of drinks factored into our decision to dine here in the first place. The menu clearly needs updating to reflect what's actually offered. As for the food, the banh mi and pho were good, but my entrée was a letdown. It was advertised as two pork chops (end cut), but what arrived was essentially one chop plus scraps, and the main chop was mostly bone, roughly 60% bone, leaving very little edible meat. Overall, decent flavors, but watch out for cheap cuts of meat and an outdated online menu. With some fixes, this place could easily improve.

Value for money: 4 Cleanliness: 4 Food Quality: 4 Customer Service: 5 Look and Feel (Ambiance): 4 Thank you, Come Again?: 4 The One Pho is a cozy spot for a cold night in Austin! We ordered the Hot Stone Sliced Ribeye, the Sizzling Platter Ribeye, and the Bone Marrow Appetizer. I really loved the concept of the hot stone pho--the fresh noodles and broth served in the stone bowl kept the soup warmer much longer compared to the standard ceramic bowl. The ribeye dishes were flavorful and satisfying, and everything came out quickly thanks to their attentive service. My only feedback would be on the bone marrow appetizer. The first time it came out, it was cold, and the fat had solidified, which wasn't pleasant. I asked the server about it, and he confirmed it should have been warm. They immediately took it back and reheated it, but even then, there wasn't much marrow to spread across the four slices of toast that accompanied it. Overall, the food was delicious, the service was fast, and the hot stone pho concept is new to me. I'd return for the pho and sizzling ribeye, but I'd skip the bone marrow appetizer next time.

The beef pho is good, and the beef steak with eggs here is absolutely phenomenal! It comes with Banh Mi bread and a small bowl of salad. The salad was very refreshing with a hint of slightly tangy flavor, and the bread was warm on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The tender steak, eggs with the sauce, and the salad, putting all in the bread makes a perfectly juicy bite. Highly recommend it!

Really incredible Vietnamese food at great prices. The Spring Rolls ($7.50) and Pork Skewer with Steamed buns ($8.50) were both amazing. Both are well made and took me to Flavor Town. I definitely am trying to come back for the pho and the bone marrow dishes. Other items on the menu include your typical Vietnamese fare - banh mihs and vermicelli bowls. The staff is kind the interior is clean and non -pretentious.

Went here for catfish springrolls (you have to order a day in advanced for them to prepare it for you) and it was amazing! I loved how they cooked the fish and there was plenty to eat for 5 people. We got the large size and it came out to be a little under $100. The staff was very friendly and asked us if we needed anything often while eating. I will definitely be back for this again and try their other dishes!

Pretty good Vietnamese restaurant with options you can't find it other places. There's actually a great variety here. Service is kind of a mix but they are usually quite attentive. Bo lo lat - super flavorful. It's not in the main menu but you need to order from a different sheet on their wall. Bone marrow - Delicious but wish they had more pieces of bread. Felt like a waste without more carbs to spread on. Banh mi - reasonably priced but also they have a meatball version that I haven't seen elsewhere except for Dalat! Excited to have this option locally.

Good food, fair prices, good portions. Tasty apps Including the bone marrow,egg rolls, spring rolls. I love a place you can get pho and bahn mi plus other dishes.

I've been here twice within just the past month and the food is solid. I was surprised how authentic this place was since it looked like a chain, but there were many Vietnamese people dining there when we came. Being from Houston, I have a high bar for banh mi and pho, and I would say the pho is great. The first time I got the pho combo the first time and I felt the broth was a bit salty and there was a meat (probably fatty brisket) that was hard to chew. But the second time, I thought the broth was perfect and super fragrant. I personally don't get banh mi in Austin because I haven't found any that match the value and taste as the ones from Houston but this is the closest I've found in town. It's still more pricey and smaller but I'd recommend their banh mi if I were really craving one.

In my opinion, this is one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in town. It offers great service, amazing staff, a clean space, and amazing food. Highly recommend for locals and visitors.

High quality spring rolls, inside out. You must try their spring rolls. Beef wrapped in betel leaves are super delicious. It's not too common in Vietnamese restaurants. Flat glass noodle is very well seasoned as well (I didn't take a photo). Overall a must try Vietnamese place in austin

The One Pho has quickly become our go-to, especially for their traditional catfish dish. It's nearly impossible to find this made well, and they absolutely nail it here. Just a tip--make sure to order it in advance (about two hours) since it takes time to prepare, but it's worth every bit of the wait. Their pho is also fantastic. The broth is rich and comforting, layered with the kind of flavor that makes you want to savor every spoonful. The smoked brisket pho is especially memorable--tender brisket with a subtle smoky depth that takes a classic dish to another level. It's the combination of authentic flavors, thoughtful preparation, and standout specialties that makes this place such a gem. Whether you're craving traditional dishes or a creative twist like brisket pho, The One Pho delivers. Simple place, great service, and easy to find.

I was referred to The One Pho with the comment, it is the best place in town. The Pho chicken was good. I was asked if I wanted white, dark meat or both, which was a treat. The server was attentive. The ambiance was good a mixture of booths and tables. You could actually have conversations without yelling.

We ordered to go and noticed for the $9 kids meal option of meat was not available. When we got home with the order, our kids meal only had noodles and broth. No attempt was made to make it right nor refund for our kids meal. We called them back and my husband call got screened. I called on my phone and was told no manager was around. We have been here before and loved it. Unfortunately, today's experience was not pleasant. Food is good unfortunately $9 kids meal of just noodles and broth is scammy. Hopefully, they look into the online order kids options because it's not useable.

Found this place last minute since I have been craving pho way more than usual recently. Service was quick, friendly and helpful. They asked me if I wanted "fresh noodles" which was a bit different than what I'm used to but they actually make them there fresh. A little different than what I'm used to but they were good. The extra large wasn't a huge bowl just packed with more of the good stuff. I'd definitely go back.

The food was fantastic-had the summer rolls, salt and pepper chicken wings, pork skewers and a noodle dish with pork-the service was excellent! The service was beyond excellent! We are staying at a hotel nearby and we were so pleased to find this wonderful restaurant nearby!

This has officially become my go-to pho spot in Austin. The broth and noodles are legit - super flavorful, and you can even choose between thin or thick noodles. The staff is really attentive, and since they're Vietnamese, they know how to make everything taste authentic. Highly recommend!

The One Pho in Austin is serving up a true Vietnamese gem that you absolutely need to try - their Baked Crunchy Skin Catfish (Cá Nướng Da Giòn). I had the pleasure of watching owner and chef Dao Nguyen carve table side. (Tip: It's preorder only!) I've only had peking duck carved tableside so this was awesome, it was definitely a showstopper. The catfish comes with all the fixings - fresh veggies, rice paper, nuoc mam (fish sauce), and mam nem (fermented anchovies). They even serve it on this genius rice paper tray that keeps everything from sticking. I'm Vietnamese and I've never seen this! We got the large size ($85) for our group of 4, and let me tell you, it was more than enough. We left stuffed with plenty of leftovers. They also offer a small size for $50. So happy to have more Vietnamese restaurants in Austin!

Them being closed today (Thursday) is criminal!! lol this is by far top 3 Pho spots in Austin!! Well worth the prices. I've eaten here for the past 3-4 days lol safe to say I'm addicted. I wanna try more items; but you know once you find something you tend to stick with it. But I'll be back with reviews on more items.

Brisket pho 10/10 Normal pho 10/10 service 10/10 ambiance 7/10 coldness 2/10 (freezing cold establishment) i would still highly recommend

Absolutely stellar. Hands down the best Vietnamese restaurant in all of Austin. I don't say that lightly either because we've pretty much have tried them all. First off they serve Bò Né, also known as a Saigon Breakfast, 2 eggs served with meatballs, pate, and a baguette for dipping in the sizzling tomato based sauce. Most Vietnamese restaurants don't have Bò Né on the menu and One Pho's is spot on. My favorite is their pork skewer vermicelli bowl. The pork is seasoned to perfection and grilled over an open flame. Delicious. Service is top notch, place is clean, love the open kitchen concept, and parking is plentiful. Really couldn't ask for much else. Again, stellar.

Rare steak pho (P1) Came in for a late lunch around 2pm on Sunday and was seated quickly. I ordered the rare steak pho with the recommendation of the house made noodles instead of the regular thin noodles. The pho and noodles were amazing! Definitely of the better phos I've ever had. I would return here and recommend to others!

The only reason you would consider eating here is because there is such a lack of options in Austin for Pho. A TikTok brought us out here, but it was a disappointment. They are understaffed and lazy I believe. The soup gets thrown into a pot frozen and is very bland. I'm confident it's just watered down beef broth. No spices at all. They're very stingy with the herbs. They have good rice noodles if you order the $30 pho but the $15 comes with the plain old dried ones. The brisket and the rare steak are so chewy and full of gristle which some people might like, but it's not for me. The tripe and tendon balls were good, but you only get 2 very small pieces of tripe and zero tendon. The service is busy handling complaining customers and bowls being sent back. We received our meal in this order: bowls of pho, spring rolls, then finally our spoons and herbs. The spring rolls were short, stumpy, and with little tiny shrimp for $8, but the fish sauce was really tasty. With the quality of the beef and the soup, I'm nervous to come back and try the 5 beef dish or the stone pho.

Reviewing their latest special, cá nướng - grilled catfish. This is a whole, head on, tail on fish, be advised if you're not used to seeing a whole cooked fish. This is a "roll your own spring roll" dish and then dipped in a fermented fish sauce (mam nem) or regular chili garlic fish sauce. The fish is not deep fried but baked for a few hours to get the skin extra crispy and the fat rendered. You have to call a day ahead for availability and pre-order. I got away with calling the same day but early in the day to have it ready for dinner arrival time. The price is quite reasonable for a whole fish like this compared to other restaurants that offer the same type of dish.

Love the food there! The pork skewer, dry egg noodle are some of my favorites. So good that I haven't ordered anything else! I need to expand, for sure.

Great new spot up north. Drove up all the way from driftwood and it didn't disappoint. We grabbed the last whole fried fish of the day, perfectly steamed for spring rolls. They have some authentic dishes that you won't find other places. This is also the first I've heard of a spot in town that does Bo 5 Mon (beef served 5 different ways). ATX has been asking for something similar, check this place out folks!

I was pretty satisfied with this place! It's pricey for pho, but I enjoyed my shrimp egg noodle dish a lot. The flavor was good and the portions were large. It came with some soup as well, which was flavorful. As is the norm for pho places, we were attended to promptly and the food came out quickly. There's plenty of parking in the lot as well as in front of the store! I'll be back, since it offers a lot of non-pho options that I'd like to try.

It's a decent Pho spot, maybe I should have went with one of their Specialty Pho bowls. But, I can't justify $30 or $38 for a bowl of Pho. Regular P8 Combo $15.50 (Combo is always my go-to anywhere) it didn't have any aroma of spices and dare I say somewhat bland. Garnishing slightly wilted... Bao Buns were fine, solid app option. Service was lacking, asked for two ice waters and he just dropped off two room temp bottles of water on the table and walked away, little strange. Tons of options out in Austin now, Tan My IMO is way better. Or.... for comparison sake, Sip Pho does the same two specialty bowls (Pho Wagyu & Pho Beef Short Ribs - both at $20 a bowl.

Ordered it on door dash and maybe it's just me but Houston Vietnamese food is just way different. It's so flavorful and well done. My spring rolls were coming apart when we got them even though they were individually wrapped. They just weren't wrapped tightly enough and the pork pieces were a little dry. Pho broth was tasty but wish it tasted meatier. Got the kids size BoNe and it was good.

It's a solid spot and gets the job done. Large portions, good pho. I got the p8 combination which is my usual go-to, and also tried the spring rolls. I'd say that the combination lacked tendon which most places include. I believe the price was also a smidge higher than most places. I'd also say that the fluorescent lighting was a bit harsh as an atmosphere critique. Overall, if I were nearby and happened to want pho I wouldn't be opposed to coming back -- but if I were choosing a pho place from scratch there would be a few off the top of my head that I would probably prefer more.

Austin went from only one place to five places for Bo Ne! Bo Ne Dac Biet ($19.50) I appreciate the multiple components and different meats. Could've used some extra butter on the side to fatten up the pate and bread. The pieces of beef was tossed in a savory brown sauce. We were hoping steak cubes where it could be served medium rare, but these were still good with the sauces. The xui mai (meatballs) were simmered in the classic sweet garlic tomato sauce and Vietnamese ham. The banh mi (bread) was on the softly toast side and airy to soak up all the sauce. Although not out of this world, this is the most true to Houston Bo Ne that I've had in Austin. Hot Stone Pho ($30) is like a deconstructed pho is the easiest way to explain. To eat, you test a piece of rare steak in the temperature of broth you want and then add all the ingredients in at once, mix then eat. It's not supposed to be hot pot style where you dip one ingredient at a time, no... The noodles are the freshly made kind. With that said, they lack the chewy texture but it's the most appropriate noodles for this style of eating pho in order to cook through. The meats were very fresh and cut thicker than other pho shops, and the main feature was the bone marrow which worked well because the broth was lean. Speaking of broth, it had a stronger star anise flavor. For price is it worth? Maybe to just try because this is one of those activities that the "richer" in Vietnam does do but paying $15 instead for a regular bowl is just fine by us! There is also a beef rib version for $38 if so desired. Cafe Sua Da (Iced Coffee) was premix but flavor was good. Located right next to Costco on Research where the Russo used to be.

They have a baked whole fish that I really enjoy! Must order ahead. Or you might be able to get it if you call ahead same day. Comes with fermented anchovy sauce but I also recommend getting the filtered house made fish sauce too to try. Great value.

Outstanding pizza. Made with very fresh ingredients. Will go back with friends and family.

No complaints. I thought the price a couple $$ to high until I saw the insane portion size. Some of the best I've ever had. Clean, quick, friendly and good. What else could you want?!? Best of luck on the business. The waiter told me it was pretty new. Looks like you are off on the right foot.

Small Vietnamese restaurant in the arboretum area. The restaurant opening and wanted to try it out. Service need some work. They kept bringing food out to the wrong the table multiple times. They also forget to bring out some items to tables and I notice people kept reminding them. Food is okay nothing amazing for me. The Kroger sriracha doesn't taste like the original sriracha. It is more on the sweeter side and not spicy at all. The banh mi (V-1) was on the salty side. Pho was also on the sweeter side for the broth. Overall, there are other places I would go than here at this time. Maybe as they continue things will get better.

The One Pho is an upscale take on pho with a gorgeous space and quick attentive staff. There's plenty on the menu that gives off the vibes of your normal Vietnamese restaurant with things like bun and pho in regular bowls, you're probably not coming here for those. You're here for what is unique that you can't get anywhere else in Austin and while it's expensive for what it is, got to carve yourself a niche somehow. Came here for mother's day and my wife wanted to celebrate with some Wagyu Stone Bowl pho. She really likes pho and we agreed the broth here is clean and a little sweet. Despite being in the stone bowl, which while does retain its heat well, still requires you to throw the raw meat in at the beginning to cook it in a reasonable amount of time (for pho at least). The One Pho is generous with the meat, but the brisket and flank is par cooked prior to arriving to the table and while we agreed the wagyu meat was really good flavor wise, it's not super marbled cause wagyu eye round? is still eye round. I tried House Favorite Combo Bo Ne, which is basically make your own banh mi on a sizzling cast iron skillet. Lots of meat, two sunny side up eggs and everything brings something interesting to the party. The baguette they give you is crusty, hot and fluffy and was delectable. Of the meats, we liked the beef best, followed by the pork meatball and then the ham. The pate was a bit too funky for us but that's what I expect. All of these were super flavorful and offered good textural contrast. The veggies offer a good palate cleanse. All that said, it's good but definitely overpriced. If you really like pho, it's worth a one time experience but I would probably stick to their regular items otherwise.

Definitely satisfied my craving for pho!! We ordered the wagyu pho via doordash and it was delicious. The broth was very flavorful and the portions were huge. Although the wagyu pho was more expensive, the amount of beef they gave us was worth it. I think i could have easily shared it with my partner. Also the sugar cane juice was good as well.

Everything from food to service to taste was excellent 5 stars!!! Some of the best peanut sauce and Pho we have ever had! I definitely recommend

Had dinner with two friends tonight during the one pho's soft opening. The employees are very nice, welcoming, and eager. Between us three females, we ordered one cast iron skillet house favorite combo that comes with a side salad and 1 banh mi baguette, one bone marrow hot stone pho, and an order of pork and shrimp eggroll (4 count) I'll start with the good. The eggrolls were very good. Loved the flavors, the crisp, the portion. $6. Bone marrow stone pot pho. The pho presentation was novelty. It reminded me of a fondue or hot pot. However, if you don't dip all of your meat in from the beginning, the pot loses heat very rapidly and you will be left with rare meat to enjoy. Although, the staff reheated out pot when requested. The broth was unremarkable. The noodles were perfect. The manager mentioned they ordered freshly made/highest quality noodles from California. $30 Last, the Bo Ne skillet smelled so good but was delivered to us at a lukewarm temperature. It did not sizzle or even steam. On the plus side, The bread that came with this entree was so good. It was baked upon order. The pork meatball was my favorite, there's a lot of potential here, if only warmer... 19.50 The portion sizes are adequate and price isn't too bad. *It does seem steep for the stone pot pho, however, there are a lot of components and could be good for diners who like their meat less cooked. I wonder if the pho wasn't split amongst three and eaten singularly, if it would've been a Better experience. Overall, our spread cost $60 with an additional loaf of bread. Split amongst 3 was $20 each. I'll give them some time to figure out some logistics and kinks before returning.

SO GOOD!! Get the catfish spring rolls. I think about this meal all the time. Service wS great as well:)

Never coming back. Tried this a year ago and wasn't impressed but came back today bc I needed a quick hot lunch. I figured they've had time to work out the kinks, but no. Pretty much got our entire order wrong. We got a smoked brisket pho and a chicken (dark meat) pho, both with no cilantro. The waitress repeated the order back to us and everything was correct. It took almost 30 min for the food to come out. Real pho places can bring them out in 5. The food first came out with a bunch of cilantro. When we said we ordered no cilantro, the server took it back and then came out 2 min later saying "no cilantro". Except all he has done was pick out the 2 largest pieces. There were lots of cilantro still floating in there and it reeked of the horrible cilantro smell. The chicken pho came out with white meat, not dark like we asked. This was the most overcooked and dry chicken I've had for pho. It was stringy and super tough to chew There will be no 3rd visit from us.

Omg! The five course beef! This is so far the best Vietnamese restaurant I've ever been. The quality of the meat in a hotpot served with the wrap and the fish anchovies sauce and the liver patte! The service was good we had a late weekend Sunday lunch. Clean and spacious enough. Everything was good food wise. Coming back!

I tried this after I saw some influencer post to their story about the best pho places in Austin. I likely won't go back. Service: They are SEVERELY understaffed and have a kitchen that is not made for the number of tables they seat. Went on Sunday for a late lunch. Waited 15 minutes to just get on the list. Multiple tables stayed dirty while people waited because they didn't have the staff. Once seated, we had our order ready because we weren't sure when we would have someone attention again. It took about another 15 minutes for us to get our iced tea. Food: The only thing that stood out was the offering of "wagyu" pho options. The broth was pretty good and they do give a lot of meat. I ordered the S-4 (wagyu, beef rib, etc.). It was served in a stone bowl that overflowed if you added too much to it. We ordered the eggrolls - which, sadly, were not Vietnamese eggrolls and were just okay - and fried okra (which was surprising). I was thinking we would get some Vietnamese spin on fried okra...No. It was just frozen, breaded okra. It was strange. The soy sauce was on the table and in a bottle called Knorr Liquid Seasoning. Bleh. It tasted NOTHING like soy sauce and more like molasses. Lastly, we got pork banh mi's to go. They gave us instructions for heating them up. These were good but, again, nothing special. All-in-all, it was just okay. Not something that, in my opinion, is worth me going through all of this to try again when there are so many great Vietnamese restaurants in Austin.
