    I would say 4 rating but leaving a 5 stahhh because the service was indeed Pho-nomenal like another yelper had said. The owner (whom I presume is the owner) was SUPER inviting and always has suggestions. Glad his beautiful establishment is on the south shore we need more spots like this. We ordered the pork chop rice plate and the pork rib / 3 protein pho. Now how i would describe i is a "healthier" version of the dish in taste, others may think it's a tad on the lighter/blander side for the broth compared to home cooked or other competitors. Meat was fall off the bone tender. They have a house blend fish sauce and accommodating side dips per dish. He'll let you know the best way to eat the dish if you're not sure. The rice dish, the porkchop was massive and cooked perfectly! Enjoyed it very much! My rice (i should have probably opted for the broken rice but i chose regular white rice, which I believe was older rice, a bit clumpy/hard. The side soup pairs well with the dish so i appreciate that a lot. They also brought us tea which was perfect on a rainy day! Overall I'll definitely be back. Different take, i appreciate the lighter style of viet cooking, but many probably know it for its bold flavors. Pricing is on the higher end of the spectrum but you do get your portions worth for the money. Viet food i believe should cost more compared to some of their counterpart asian cuisines! Beautiful dishes should get the spot light.

    Special Combo Beef Pho

    Had a little to swing by a local pho place. Kind of my thing and see how the cooking is different in parts of USA. Overall it was pretty good. I got the beef special which came out hot. Broth flavoring was good. Met my expectation. Service was good.

    After so many of our favorite Vietnamese restaurants closed, we've found it super hard to find one that really hits the spot. We decided to see if there were any we haven't tried yet and ended up visiting Ganh Pho for a quick lunch. Ganh Pho in Braintree has a bunch of authentic dishes you'd typically find at most Vietnamese spots, like pho, bun bo hue, banh mi, rice plates, and vermicelli bowls but they definitely put a lil twist to it here. The restaurant itself is modern & got a cozy feel inside. Something that I thought was cool was that they offer a create-your-own option for pho & banh mi. I originally wanted to try the Ganh Pho bowl, which is essentially Pho Dac Biet but with pork ribs ($30). When ordering, the owner suggested I try a custom pho bowl with yellow egg noodles, brisket, beef ribs, shrimp, and bok choy ($26?). And that if I didn't like it, it would be on the house hahaha. I was convinced to try it & he told me to specifically eat the shrimp w/ the pickled onions it came with on the side & dip the meat in the sate sauce along w/ some hoisin. It was definitely a different experience and something that I would typically make & eat at home. Flavors are light but well balanced... not necessarily a bad thing! If you like your food more flavorful, then this might not be for you. The pho broth did not have much depth and would've probably tasted richer if we came for dinner. I personally enjoyed the meal because I do tend to enjoy lighter flavors, so definitely a preference thing. We also ordered the pork chop rice plate & similar to the CYO Pho, it was much lighter in flavor compared to other Vietnamese restaurants around but still thought it was tasty. Light in flavor and I would say, tastes healthy & we felt GOOD after finishing eating! None of the food felt heavy at all, so I enjoyed it. Prices are a little steep, again compared to other Vietnamese restaurants around but we were satisfied with our meal, so not so bad. The service was also very good! Super attentive, helpful, & gave good suggestions on what we should order. Complimentary tea too! This was more of a 4 star for food but because of the service, we will give it a 5. Parking: free parking lot in the back!

    Nice atmosphere and great food, I would recommend coming here again, as I have been here almost five times even though it's like a 30 minute drive!

    Rice with Grilled Pork
    Christine L.

    Such a cute and cozy Vietnamese restaurant located in Braintree! Ganh Pho is perfect for if you want to sit down and enjoy a meal but also if you want to grab something to go. I love how it's set up; their counter is built for a quick take out order with tables in the back for a typical dine-in experience. I got their rice with grilled pork which came with a side of soup. Their soup was delicious -- super rich and flavorful, but not too heavy at the same time. Their grilled pork was good as well, but the nuoc cham (their house fish sauce) was terrific to pair with the meat. The pork was a little dry but overall very tasty. I would come back for their pho since I thought their soup was so good! I can imagine that their pho broth is probably just as good. Parking is a breeze here since they have their own lot. I recommend giving Ganh Pho a try for some good Viet food! Although a bit pricier than other Viet places, it's worth giving them a taste.

    Today, i went to Ganho Pho and had this ganh pho beef spare rib soup. It is excellent. It contains two big spare rib, beefs and beef tripes...the broth is so tasty...i was not able to finish it so took home for dinner. Highly recommended this place for anyone!!!

    I've seen this place on social media and always wanted to try this place. This past weekend was my time! We were in the area and decided to try it. There is plenty of street parking outside, and this place is not far from the South Shore mall. The restaurant is clean and there is one gentleman that operates the dining area and handles take out orders. He is super friendly and checks in on you to ensure all is well throughout your stay. The menu is pretty limited but you're coming to this place for pho. They have a special one called Ganh Pho, and this $25 bowl of pho comes with 2 tender pieces of beef ribs! We ordered 3 bowls. The ribs are cooked perfectly and are easy to eat - just grab the bone and go at it. The portion size is good with lots of noodles and other meats. The broth comes out hot and has good flavor. The flavor is not over powering, but just right for this dish. Everything that you need is already at the table - sauces, chop sticks, napkins. The guy also brews hot tea at the front counter and he is quick to give refills without you asking. The restaurant is clean and there were about 11 tables inside. The area is pretty open so I'd imagine that if they had to, they could rearrange things to accommodate larger groups (with appropriate planning). The menu is not huge, but I did see the traditional rice plate with pork chops, and fresh/fried rolls available as well. There are some drink offerings, too. If you're a pho lover and you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by and get the signature Ganh Pho! You'll love it. I can't wait to go back.

    The restaurant have an inviting vibe and the server was attentive and welcoming. I got the ganh pho bowl and it was huge. The broth could use more star anise and cinnamon though. The beef brisket was a little chewy but the meatballs and tripe were tender. They are generous with the bean sprouts, jalapeño and herbs. Also got Vietnamese iced coffee that was a little too sweet for my taste. Plenty of parking in the back and front street parking.

    Wow! What an amazing meal and overall restaurant experience! Don't wok, run to Ganh Pho! My mom and I can't wait to return. (Sorry for the pun, I couldn't help myself.)

    Beef back rib pho
    Johnny L.

    The server was incredibly nice to us and attentive. I got the beef back rib pho, which I really enjoyed and was a nice change of pace from the typical pho that I get. The spring roll that we got was good as well. It wasn't busy on a holiday weekend during dinner hours, so it was nice and quiet. This is a solid place and I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in the area.

Totally incongruous with the surrounding environment. Walked in... nothing fancy. Maybe 5 tables. The food was just not good. I had the big wonton soup ( the one with all the extras ).

There used to be a Bank of America ATM right across the street but it seems like it is no longer there unfortunately. Their biang biang noodles are fire & you really can't go wrong with getting the dry version or with soup. Honestly, this has been my favorite spot to get noodles lately. Last week, I literally went here almosevery day for dinner (I wish I was kidding). My favorite dishes to order from here include: - Cumin Lamb Biang Biang Noodles - Cumin Lamb Biang Biang Noodle Soup - Fish Filet with Chili Pepper - Chongching Chicken with Chili Pepper Visually, the dishes don't look like generous portions but actually they're quite filling! The cumin lamb Biang Biang noodles (w/o soup) is generally my go-to because it's SO FLAVORFUL. The lamb is cooked well & doesn't taste gamey at all. It's a tad spicy but won't kill you hahaha. They do have another version of this dish that comes with soup & it's a great option if you're feeling a soup. This also has amazing flavor but of course, not as flavorful as the dry version since it comes with soup. I highly recommend getting the fish filet with chili peppers if you love a fried fish! They make it incredibly crispy without making the fish taste dry. This is perfect with a bowl of rice. Now, the chongching chicken wings have to be the spiciest dish out of my favorites. This is a great snack! I usually get this to share if I'm eating here with a group or if I'm getting takeout, I'll get this as an entree.The pieces are crispy, spicy, and juicy. What more can you ask for? SO GOOD. For dine in, it is Cash Only. If you do takeout and don't have cash/want to go grab cash, what I like to do is order through UberEats. This way, it charges credit card & you can just go in to pick it up or choose for delivery.

    Chili Square is a small Chinese restaurant specializing in hand-pulled noodles and Northwestern…read moreChinese cuisine. We walked into a simple, modest space with only a handful of tables, the kind of casual neighborhood eatery where the focus is clearly on the food rather than the surroundings. The dining room was tight and functional, with a no-frills setup that kept the attention on the noodles coming out of the kitchen. The energy was practical and unpretentious, and the steady flow of customers reflected its reputation as a destination for anyone craving authentic Chinese noodle dishes. The hand-pulled noodles are the highlight of the menu. We ordered a few different styles and found the Biang Biang noodles standing out with their wide, chewy texture that held up well to the bold sauces. The Lanzhou beef noodle soup offered a lighter broth paired with freshly stretched noodles that had a clean, satisfying bite. The spicy lamb hand-pulled noodles were another popular choice, combining tender meat with a flavorful sauce that had a satisfying amount of heat. Beyond the noodles, the cumin lamb burger, steamed dumplings, and cold skin noodles provided plenty of variety if we wanted to explore more of the menu. Each dish arrived hot and well assembled, and the portions were generous for the price. The restaurant operates with a very straightforward, self-service style. Seating is limited, and the dining room fills up quickly during busy hours, so waiting for a table is common. The service is fairly minimal, with the emphasis placed on getting the food out rather than providing a full-service dining experience. Water and utensils are self-serve, and the overall experience feels more like grabbing an authentic meal than dining somewhere with polished hospitality. It is also worth knowing that Chili Square is cash only, so planning ahead will save you from any surprises when it is time to pay. The staff moved through the room efficiently, and the noodles came out hot and freshly pulled. Overall, Chili Square is a great choice if you are looking for authentic hand-pulled noodles and bold Northwestern Chinese flavors. The small space, cash-only policy, and simple service require a little flexibility, but the freshly made noodles and generous portions make it well worth the visit if the food is your main priority.
