Vermicelli was a 3.5 as it was fresh and a good serving (4) but the grilled pork was on the cooler side and didn't taste as crisp and fresh off the grill as you'd expect (3). Best part of the pho was the broth as it wasn't too salty like it can be sometimes elsewhere (4). Veggies were super fresh. Sliced beef was previously sliced and the whole chunk was placed in so you had to tease apart the slices from each other which was a little different than my experiences elsewhere. SKIP THE SPRING ROLLS. Picture had three shrimps/roll. Ours had 1/roll on one side with a slice of pork (I think) on the other. Seemed pretty skimpy if you ask me (2.5 at best). Service was good (4). Location was in a small strip mall with a Mexican and Indian place next door. The bars over nearly the entire front storefront were definitely interesting. For an out-of-towner, this part of Kent seems like a Santa Ana/Westminister/Garden Grove of OC, CA kind of an area with different ethnic offerings up and down the street.

The wait wasn't long, but he surprised our kids with chocolate after dinner for waiting patiently and smiled and joked with everyone in the restaurant and he moved around the restaurant.

My issue was the sanitary aspect or shall I say the lack there of. I mean it's one thing to see a couple hairs on the floor ya know but wow the amount of hair and debris in the floor looked like they hadn't cleaned in weeks. There was a a whole clump of hair under our table and hair hanging from the chairs. I dropped my daughter's blanket on the floor and my husband picked it up and he it had a pubic hair on it. The tables were not wiped off and the bathroom was a disaster zone. I mean if this is what they think their customers should deal with can you imagine what the kitchen looks like. The food was ok but I'm gonna be honest it's not something I would pay for again when there are other options that at least care enough about their customers that they actually keep the place clean and sanitize. I won't come back but if you don't mind eating in those conditions then it's your choice.

The grilled pork rolls are average and nothing to out of your way for but if you have a hankering for them, they satisfy the craving. I've also had the banh mi here and for the price point, there are definitely better options in the surrounding area. I'll be back for the pho or BBH for sure.

I would give it a zero if I could. That female owner was so rude and not professional in the service industry. She talked bad things about the customers if you do not enough dishes. She thoughts people do not understand what she was talking in her own language. She discriminates her own people but so kissed ass to while folks. Food is just ok. Come here if you are a white person otherwise, do expect to get an attitude or not good services from her. I'll never go back to this restaurant. read more

Terrible Hot Pho is an establishment that I cannot recommend. The owner's rudeness and aggression made for an uncomfortable dining experience. On top of that, the unsanitary conditions were evident as I observed cockroaches crawling out from the kitchen area. This place falls far short of basic hygiene standards, and I would caution anyone against dining here. Reviewing as five stars so this reaches the top! read more

I came here with my boyfriend for dinner, we hadn't eaten anything all day, and we were starving. The place had one other person inside, so we got seated quickly. Upon sitting down, I grabbed utensils from the utensil container, and they were all dirty. I had to rinse them in my water cup and wipe it down before using. I got the regular size Pho Tai for $15~, my bf got the beef teriyaki, extra meat for $20~. I thought it was weird how they also charge extra if you want extra lime or cilantro/onions, I've never seen a pho restaurant do that... My pho was more like a small size compared to other places, with less than an average portion of meat. My meat was tough to chew and dry. The soup was very oily. On top of that, my pho was served with a strand of hair. Thankfully, I saw it before I started eating, our server was kind and brought out a new bowl of pho. However, that was not the only issue; the beef teriyaki was just as underwhelming as my pho. It looked more like a beef stir fry, and the beef was even TOUGHER to chew. I do not recommend this place if you are looking for Vietnamese comfort food.

Since it was late, the place had several tables filled but wasn't a full house. There's tons of tables for groups of 2+ people, and I got seated immediately. Inside is brightly lit and very casual. With all my usual first visits to Vietnamese restaurants, I got their Thai tea and their grilled beef short ribs rice plate. That tea was standard and took a little while to prepare since staff had a bunch other delivery orders to fill throughout the night. The rice plate itself was tasty; the grilled beef short ribs looked burnt but still tasted as if they had all the seasoning as I like, and the meat still pulled off the bone easily, so it definitely wasn't overcooked. The rest of the plate is very standard but satisfying in my books. It was also quite nice chatting with the staff a little bit too on some of the dishes. This is a place I'd recommend for some good food, and they're also open slightly later compared to most other places around their vicinity, so it's also a decent choice for if you want foods little later than usual. Really happy this place gets constant traction, and I will be recommending here to my friends!

We had to ask for the same size bowl and he looked confused by stating he had dropped off a bowl but it was like for kids. The pho was decent, but definitely needed some extra seasoning with their chili oil. The extra large can easily feed two or three people too. The spring rolls were pretty good but I definitely wished it had more sauce cause those things are huge. Though some of the veggies for it tasted off. My boyfriend enjoyed the banh mi for the most part but the cuts of meat were literally steak for pho which wasn't what we were expecting. The restaurant is huge.
