    Pho-mazing! Lovely mouthfeel with the broth, a perfect bowl on a winter storm night. Try the Pho Dac Biet along with a mix of hoisin sauce, chili garlic and the chili crisp - this combo was a good replacement for my usual hoisin sauce/sa té combo at pho restaurants. The pork eggrolls had an unusual surprise - fresh sliced mushrooms (in case you were wondering why the crust was darker in hue). We chatted briefly with Jeff, the owner, and learned a ton about the restaurant's history and re-launch. It's a good sized venue, with great lighting and seating plus excellent service. I would dine here again!

    Crispy tofu
    Jaz M.

    I enjoyed the crispy tofu and beef pho. I would get the tofu again and try something else next time. The pho was a little oily. They have some other dishes I'd try. The service was good and workers were friendly. One gentleman did a LOT of uncovered sneezing... They're a good place for dinner. Smaller and more condensed seating area. Give it a try.

    So happy that pho has returned to S. Grand! The ambiance is perfect for a cozy night out with friends, and our group of six was seated comfortably. The food came out quickly, and everyone loved their meals. I ordered the rice paper rolls and the vermicelli noodles with egg rolls, both delightful. The freshly squeezed lemonade truly is fresh, and on a cold night, a warm pot of tea pairs perfectly with the soups. Still smiling from the great time out.

    This place is my comfort zone. I am literally there every week, because the good it is just amazing. The best pho in Saint Louis. The service is always a top tier. The place is cute, clean and with a wonderful full bar! My favorite dishes are the chicken/tilapia curry and of course the pho. I will always recommend this place at anytime!!!!

    Pho with beef meatball and sliced beef and stir fried cai lan. Wonderful

    I've been coming here a while. And never have had anything but a wonderful experience. Food is great and staff is even more wonderful. Please come see them. You won't be sorry

    To start we had an order of spring rolls and fried egg rolls. They were both delicious. The fried one came out a little too hot. I ordered the stir fry noodles and I loved every bite of it. It all tastes fresh and very flavorful. I can't recommend the food here any more. I can tell they put a lot of effort in making quality dishes with a good price point here. The service was very respectful, kind, patient, and delivered everything on time.

    When it's soup season, Grand Bistro is THE place to be! Everything is great. Great service, great vibe, great drinks, and amazing food! I love their Seasoned Tofu, Grilled Shrimp, and their chicken pho! The chicken pho is literally 12/10

    I'm so glad I got to try this place! It used to be Pho Grand and it closed down a few years ago and I was so sad as I never got to go! But now it's open again! And omg was it delicious! I got the wonton soup which was so savory and yummy. And then I got the garlic sautéed shrimp. You can never go wrong! Both of my friends got pho and they LOVED it. Now I have to go back and get pho! The place is pretty small. And it was packed! There was a wait on a Wednesday night when we went! Which means it's good! Luckily we snagged some bar seats and didn't have to wait. Keep in mind there is only street parking along Grand, which can be tricky depending on the day/time of day. But it's well worth a visit!

    The food was amazing! Our server was nice. Ambiance was incredible and friendly! We will definitely be back!

    Banh Xeo, Crispy crepe
    Lori W.

    I have an unreasonable emotional attachment to banh xeo. I can't seem to find it anywhere near my house these days.I was near downtown today and swung by the only place my most recent menu searches listed it. "Swung by" as in 30 minutes completely out of my way. So glad I did! The location is bistro modern and welcoming. Service was great- even though i was just getting carryout they seated me at the bar and offered me a glass of ice. especially nice since it's 94 degrees outside. My order of banh xeo, crispy crepe, was the absolute best I've had. Today is not going to satisfy a craving but create a longing for it again. Soon.

    Shaken beef

    Amazing food. Got the beef pho and shaken beef with drinks, all winners. Staff super friendly, environment warm, definitely will be back!

    The beautiful and cozy dining room.
    Valerie T.

    It's still exactly the same except for a slight name change and updated decor. The owner and his wife were on the floor and could not have been nicer. They love their restaurant and it shows. He said it will always be Pho Grand to him. He helped us with menu selection and everything was delicious. I had the coconut curry. It was very good. He had a beef tenderloin soup but I don't remember the name. It was all good and lovely. Very happy they are back!!

    Grand Bistro on South Grand is back, baby! Once known as Pho Grand, this spot was my ride-or-die in college. I used to get a vat of whatever I ordered and then eat on it for the week because I was poor. So when it tragically shuttered in 2023, I grieved. But now, it's risen like a spicy, noodly phoenix from the ashes. We kicked things off with the fresh spring rolls. Delicate rice paper hugging fresh veggies and shrimp. Then I got the spicy red chile shrimp, and yes, it had a kick, but not a call the fire department kick. Like more of a confident heel tap. And Jensen? She went full feral on her ramen. Girl was straight-up slurping like she was trying to find the secret to life at the bottom of the bowl. I asked how it was and she just gave me the look while inhaling noodles like a Dyson. Mad Respect. Anyway, this place is absolutely back in the rotation. I will be regularly haunting it again, lurking over a bowl of something delicious, pretending I don't see anyone I knew in college.

    Is the pho broth made with cilantro (soap, to us cursed with the gene)?

    Most likely, but you might be able to ask them to leave it out, but I haven't ordered it before. So many items on the list.

Great spot to walk to on a nice day! There's also a lot of parking beside and behind the building, so no excuses on having a tough time getting there. There are 2 doors in, 1 for pickup orders and 1 for dine in. The dine in door leads to you a line/maze that ends at the front counter (where you order) this gives you time to look over the paper menus, or the tv menus boards. I went with the paper ones since the boards were hard to see from that distance. (Old eyes I guess!) It was odd that the dine in door maze went past a cooler and soda station for pickup orders. Ordering was easy and the young lady was helpful in explaining what was spicy or not. We got the big Thai wrap and a seasonal noodle bowl. They also give you a number for your table and directed us up a ramp to the dining area. The ramp/floor isn't consistent in its slope, so pay attention when walking up there. The dining area is painted in bright colors, with funky light fixtures and chairs. Very bright and colorful. There was a musty smell in the area that we sat, which reminded us of an old basement. The food came out pretty quickly and looked great! We enjoyed both dishes and agreed that the spicy eggplant was our favorite flavor. The plan for next time is the seasonal noodle bowl with chicken, spicy sesame sauce and chopped spicy eggplant on top. If you have the opportunity, give this a try!

So just a huge fyi to all diners with those kinds of dietary restrictions. To make a reservation took a lot of forethought and I was looking forward to my experience. The service was questionable - made me feel a little weird when I walked in, but that's fine. We got to our cramped table and got seated. Our waiter was really great though because he was very honest - he immediately told us which items did not work for my restrictions. As mentioned, that ended up being most of the menu, leaving only cold sides/salads as things I could consider. He offered to let us leave (lol) without charging us - because to no-show/cancel a reservation is a hefty fee of 20$ per person. It felt very weird to leave within five minutes of sitting down... So I have to say thank you to the waiter for being knowledgeable about the menu and dietary restrictions. However, for a restaurant with these kinds of ratings (and prices) , I expected so much more. Very non-inclusive of a huge portion of the population who does not eat certain meats. Thank you to the waiters who are honest and know the menu like ours did, but I think the menu could be vastly improved.

They had 2 wait staff working when we went and both greeted us immediately and seated us inside. Their air conditioning was broken and awaiting repair and they had signs throughout explaining that. It was still cooler inside than out so we sat inside. I was curious what a butterfly lemonade was so I ordered one. It was good and quite refreshing with traditional lemonade at the bottom topped with a vibrant deep purple concoction on top. After I educated myself, I found that the deep purple concoction is steeped tea made from butterfly pea flowers. We started with some egg rolls - fried with ground pork and vegetables and served with sweet and sour sauce. The sauce was great! I normally pass as most of them have a cloyingly sweet flavor that I don't like but theirs had a really good balance of flavors amd not too sweet. The egg rolls were flavorful enough to stand on their own though and yes, delivered piping hot to the table. I had the drunken noodles with beef at medium spicy level. At first bite, I was immediately able to taste the spicy level I chose. A great sign. Then I sniffed and started sweating. Another great sign of good spice level. My husband ordered the yellow curry with tofu and medium spice level as well. At first he said it could be hotter but then midway through he decided it was more of a build up and thought the level was actually perfect. Serving size was great. You can definitely get another meal out of an order! We took the rest of our food home. I cannot wait to eat my leftovers today. What a great spot for a delicious, quick dinner!

The party of 6 beside us finished their food, got their to go boxes, paid their tab, & chit chatted before we were even acknowledged. We were not the only ones who noticed that our party was being ignored/ overlooked because a lady in the party next to us (the party who had already paid) leaned over to me and said, I promise the food is worth the wait. Hence we stayed... When the waiter brought our water, we went on and ordered our appetizers. We asked if he would go on and take our entree orders. My son ordered pad Thai, one daughter drunken noodles, the other daughter fried rice, my husband and I fried rice and drunken noodles... The waiter then told us, we don't have drunken noodles, the noodles did not come in on the delivery order (I get it, not your fault), but we were confused because nothing was said about those dishes not being available when we sat down as well as when my daughter ordered drunken noodles (which come to find out he had written that part of the order down wrong)... My husband asked if they could just substitute a different type of noodles from one of the other noodle dishes into the drunken noodles, and the waiter said that the noodles in the drunken noodles were large and flat. My husband reiterated to the server that we knew that and asked the question again. The server gave the same response. I am not sure if his intent was to be condescending or if his comprehension was that poor, but with service like that, I have little faith in the quality of the food... By this time, things were beyond frustrating, so we got up and left. We ended up at Sen Thai and had a great meal. Guess we will have to continue to do some Yelp research on other quality Thai restaurants in STL...Chao Baan will remain a mystery for us!
