Service here was good, and the appetizers the spring rolls ($6.25) and summer rolls ($6) were enjoyable. The issue was the pho. The broth was very bland, and the meat quality wasn't great (it even had an off smell). As of March 2026, it's priced at $15.50 per bowl with no size options, and the portion was quite small (more like a small at other places). Overall, it was disappointing. While eating, I even found myself questioning whether this was an authentic Vietnamese restaurant. I hope they make some improvements. read more

Pho here is actually very good. Sadly their shaky beef is not as good. Overcooked and not tender. Haven't tried their banh mi yet. So far would only recommend their pho. read more

I've been here before and I was hoping this time would be a better experience but sadly I was disappointed again. Their fresh spring rolls are good- but it's the pho I have an issue with. I ordered take out and there was like an OUNCE of raw steak and maybe another ounce of brisket. So two ounces for $15 pho you're practically paying for noodles and broth only. A decent order of protein would at least have 3.5 to 4 ounces of meat... step it up please. I wonder what they do to the protein when you eat in- easy to hide just how little is provided in the pho. read more

My husband and I both enjoyed our meals here the other day. The peanut sauce really made the spring rolls yummy. Our vermicelli dishes came out quickly, hot, and tasty. The iced coffee was creamy but you could still taste coffee which I appreciated. Cute small restaurant vibe in a strip of stores with plenty of parking. Nice convenient location. The lady who waited on us was doing it all. She was very nice, welcoming, and helpful. Check them out! read more

Not a good deal food was okay. Cleaned place but if the portions stay so small they wont be around much longer.

Came home for the weekend and unfortunately my family felt a little under the weather so what better cure than a big bowl of pho! my dad has been to this spot a few times with the previous ownership and talked highly about the spot so we decided to go here for a last minute dinner we came 30 minutes before closing and the kind souls let us dine in and served us so quick. i got the beef brisket and meatball pho- literally so good. broth was flavorful, all the extra ingredients were so fresh, and my meats were juicy and tender. the pho came out steaming just the way i like it! definitely going to make this a go to spot when i come home read more

While traveling, I found this restaurant and decided to try it based on reviews and the food looked fresh in the pictures. The expectations were met and exceeded. The waitress was very friendly and efficient. The food was delicious and arrived quickly. I liked that there was plenty of food but it wasn't overwhelming. She brought fish sauce in a separate container which I appreciated being able to use what I wanted. The lunch crowd was plenty but not too crowded. read more

I tried Lotus Pho and found it to be very good. It certainly was not crowded at the weekday lunch hour and my pho came out almost immediately. I selected P8, Slices of well-done brisket and skirt flank. The broth was tasty. The serving size was ample, with a generous serving of meat. I'll definitely be back! read more

Not the best Pho at all, broth was bland, definately not traditional.... spaghetti noodles, really? Would not recommend at all.

Their food has become more consistent. The pho broth is very good and I like the fried cruller that you get when you eat in the restaurant.

For Lorton, this place isn't bad. I am not sure if this a Vietnamese owned restaurant. Pho was not typical of what I find at other Vietnamese owned restaurants around the area. The tendon was very hard and chewy and the broth tasted very watered down. Came here on a Sunday in the middle of the day. Plenty of seats available. Staff was friendly. Even gave us complimentary Vietnamese bread. Veggies were very fresh and the restaurant was clean. read more

Lotus Pho & Grill replaced Pho Cong Ly and the banner outside said it was under new management. We have both dine-in and take out experience. The staff appear to be more kind. The interior appears to be clean. You enter, and can sit anywhere that's open. You order at the counter and pay before the food is ordered. They will bring the food to you. We typically get the tai and tai chin. There was one time when we didn't get the sprouts in our takeout order. After we called, we were told they were out. I wish they gave extra hoisin and siracha sauce. When we do takeout, we typically microwave or reheat the broth and then put the noodles and meat in. Will definitely order again!! read more

Super delicious food. Service was great. Appreciate how quickly the food was prepared. Their pho roll was prefect for on-the go meal. read more

I'm assuming this place is new. It's very clean and bright! Customer service is great! I got the V7 Bun with Eggrolls and Grilled beef. The dish came out so well plated! The egg rolls have that nice crunch to bite ratio. The Beef was very tender! I wasn't expecting that. The pickled veggies with rice noodles gives this dish a very fresh feeling. It makes you think you're eating a salad but it's not! Definitely will come back to try the rest. read more

So happy this place replaced the old Pho place. Much much better quality! My husband and I ordered the Summer Rolls, chicken pho, and the one with pretty all the beef to go. 1) There was SO MUCH meat so you definitely get your money's worth! My husband and I were able to share with our kids and still be full. 2) Totally appreciated that they actually have different broths for the 2 types of pho. I feel like most places use the beef broth no matter what type of pho you order. One thing that could have been a little improved was the broth. We felt like the broth wasn't as flavorful as some places? Maybe not enough of a clove flavor? But overall, we enjoyed it enough to come back! read more

Nice quaint place. It was empty when I came in on a week night early evening. I was seated and greeted. I had the pho noodle soup with shrimp and spring rolls. Everything was really good. I didn't realize that you pay at the counter. There was a small sign indicating that. I'll return to try something different food. read more

Yummy! Order the V3 grilled pork and vermicelli. Never disappoints me! I travel 16 miles as I'm Not in their delivery area. So worth it. Staff very accommodating. I've always taken home although the dining room is lovely. read more

I like their food -- but they do a very poor job preparing deliveries. The portion size of the broth and add ins are inconsistent and they clearly don't QC the to go orders. More than once they messed up my order and I did not get everything I paid for. So now I have to pick it up myself and check everything. read more

Outstanding !! Excellent flavor, freshness, and presentation. If you are craving some amazing Vietnamese food, this is a gold mine . So good I am trying some else tomorrow read more

The food here is good, the service is on time and they are very nice. I would just implore whoever is running the operation of the online menu to add a selection for vegetarian spring rolls when ordering. There are people who are allergic to seafood and could assume when ordering a meal without meat that the spring roll also comes without meat. For example; the the vermicelli (v1.) Just a suggestion to try keeping your returning customers safe and happy. read more

We are so accustomed to area pho restaurants without ambiance because you go for the broth, that this was a bit of a surprise. Good pho, great ambiance and pleasant service read more

Very good and filling! I was shocked that they gave so much in one meal! I had enough for two people! Broth was very flavorful!

The grilled shrimp is super tasty! The pho itself was just as delicious. Not sure if I was just hungry that day, but I left nothing behind. For sure, I'll be back for more. read more

Pho- Broth was on point and full of flavor. You can taste that they didn't use MSG (or too much). You taste all the spices and the time the put into the soup. They only have one size-Large. Had leftovers because I didn't the the summer rolls were going to be so big. (See next paragraph) Summer roll- Very Fresh- They used big pieces of shrimp and meat. Veggies were fresh and green and the overall portion was much bigger than other places. The peanut sauce was better than other places too. read more

I went there for a quick lunch and it was delicious. The menu is a bit limited but understandable since it is more economical to not have too many options on the menu.

I came to Lotus pho and Grill, because there was too much traffic on 95 at the time. The service was quick because most customers take their food to go. It is a well done arrangement as a small restaurant and the menu was easy to interpret. Lotus provides good Vietnamese food. I recommend the pork bun cha. Have a spring roll too. read more

Their food isn't fresh, they microwave it. Also overpriced for the poor quality of food they serve. Eek.

It's not like the traditional Viet Restaurant that I was expecting, but the quality of food is great.

Really good Vietnamese food in the middle of a strip mall. Was on my way back home from DC and was hungry so decided to stop in. Friendly staff and fast service. Summer rolls are pretty standard but good. The grilled pork was super flavorful. Definitely will stop back again when in town. read more

This spot is under new ownership and I am happy to say it is much improved. We have had take out twice and everything we have tried has been solid and very tasty. The interior is pretty and clean and the staff is very welcoming and nice. It's nice to now have some very good vietnamese in the neighborhood when we are tired of pizza. Well done, Lotus Pho! read more

I ordered a A1, P6 and viet iced coffee (delivered). The rolls were great, and huge. The dipping sauce was flavorful. The Iced coffee was on point, strong! The Pho was good, I got eye round. The meat came raw (which I wanted but didn't have to ask). The pho broth lacked a little bit of flavor, I'd give it a 8/10. It could be the batch. I will definitely order from here again! read more

Nice- decent pho- I thought the broth could've been a bit more flavorful but overall it hit the spot on an overcast day

Ordered spring rolls and the P1 pho which is the pho with all the different kinds of meat. Both were lacking in flavor. The "peanut" sauce shouldn't even be called sauce it was so bland. I had to scoop out half the bowl with my roll to taste anything. The pho smelled nice which got my hopes up but when I tasted it, I was disappointed by the lack of flavor. I had to completely douse it with hoisin and sriracha to taste anything. It shouldn't be that way. The portion size in the pho was also really poor. I was able to grab the entire portion of noodles in the bowl with one scoop of the chopsticks. Unacceptable. The meat was okay but some cuts were definitely on the chewy side. They did not provide chili sauce ready to go on the table which is also unacceptable. Everyone else reviewing this place has no idea what they're talking about and they obviously haven't been to a real pho restaurant. Go to pho duong in Burke for some real pho. read more

Excellent vermicelli! Everything is super fresh and well seasoned. I'm so glad they've come to the neighborhood!

I ordered carryout and it was packaged beautifully. When I got home, I assembled my pho and it was just like in the restaurant. The restaurant is clean and inviting. I am definitely going back, perhaps next time I will eat in! read more
