Pho 88 Reviews
Portions are big and great price. Super delicious will be coming frequently!
Hands down best pho spot. Been going here for 10 years and the price & taste is phenomenal. Service is also super fast. Usually super packed but ever since the pandemic there's only a hand full of tables occupied at any given time. They have outside seating for the moment but may change come winter. They do takeout now but eating in is still preferred as it doesn't quite taste the same taking it home.
My family and I go for dinner here all the time. My kids love the squid and the fresh rolls. The pho is excellent, the staff are really nice. Quick service, large portions for a great price. The restaurant is usually packed.
I came in maybe less than an hour before close. The ladies quickly got me a table, showed me how to order and i was eating within the next 10 minutes. The pho was absolutely amazing! I have had my fair share of Pho but this Pho is the best i ever had and i will be thinking about going each month. Price was reasonable and staff were very nice.
Been coming here for 20 years, excellent portion size and there is always a lot of meat. However, prices have increased a lot lately (I understand it is because of inflation) but to the point where it costs nearly 7 for 2 spring rolls. Unfortunate, but unbeatable flavour.
I’ve been coming here since I was 10 and I’ll probably continue coming here until one of us goes! For what it is, it’s great. Big bowls of pho and nice rice platters. All delicious. They used to put a bit more effort in both, specifically the platters used to have more vegetables besides a bit of shredded lettuce and carrots. But I suppose it’s all in an effort to save money. Speaking of which they recently raised their prices (evidenced by the tapped over prices :P) I’m a bit sad about it but it is what it is! I hope this 5 star review might help bring more customers and they can return their prices back to the good ol’ days.
Whenever I am in the area I will definitely be making a stop here. Excellent quality food with reasonable prices that is open late (bonus!). When I dined in on a Saturday night, it was extremely busy but the staff were very quick, attentive, hard working and friendly. Keep up the great work!
I always leave with an empty bowl, full stomach and a smile on my face. Great service and great food gives this little hidden gem a 5 stars. Been coming here for a while and will continue to come here
