My family and I enjoyed an incredible meal that included the Pho Supreme, chicken and shrimp fried rice, shrimp spring rolls, and their delicious bánh mì sandwich. From the moment our food arrived, we knew we were in for something special. Every dish looked beautifully prepared, the aromas were absolutely irresistible, and each bite exceeded our expectations. The flavors were fresh, perfectly balanced, and simply unforgettable. Their Pho noodles are absolutely one of the best I've ever had; and their fried rice was epically delicious. What makes the experience even better is the value. The portions are generous, the prices are very reasonable and the three of us enjoyed a full meal for under $100. While the restaurant itself is small, it delivers big on quality, flavor, and hospitality. It's easy to understand why Pho Van has earned a reputation as one of Pittsburgh's best dining destinations. If you find yourself in Pittsburgh, be sure to add Pho Van to your list; you won't be disappointed.

It contains several parts of a cow that I had never tried before, and it made me so pleased to be able to try several new things in one dish!!! If you're in the mood for something new, or even if you already love pho, I totally recommend checking out this great spot! Keep up the amazing work Pho Van!

They were also way larger than normal so it's certainly worth their price. Amazing filling and perfectly crispy. I opted for the pho with flank steak and tripe. The broth is amazing. Noodles perfectly cooked. The portion was so big that I took some home for lunch tomorrow but I wanted to continue eating.

They have a wide variety of different noodle soups, rices, and vermicillis. I ordered the Pho Dac Biet (Pho Minh Soup), which came with rare beef, beef balls, flank steak, and chicken. The broth was decent -- not the most flavorful I've had, but still satisfying. My partner got the Bun Thang, a vermicelli soup with chicken, egg, pork, and shrimp. Unfortunately, the broth on that one was a bit bland, and the toppings weren't finely shredded. Solid portion size though, since I left very full. The ambiance reminds me of hole-in-the-wall type restaurants - simple, no-frills, and a spot of the locals. Fyi: this place only accepts cash, so come prepared.

It is a little pricey but considering the fact that Pittsburgh has very few Vietnamese restaurants, it's probably a normal price for Vietnamese food in Pittsburgh. I would come back for the banh mi and wings and to try their pho!

Fresh, crisp vegetables added a nice contrast. Overall, a solid bánh mì, especially for delivery.
