The best pho in Tacoma. The BEST PHO IN TACOMA. 10/10. The best Thai tea I have ever tasted. Service was perfect, kind, friendly, not annoying...just super calm and chill. 90's hits playing in the background while it's just a calm ambiance. It was truly incredible. I don't understand how this place doesn't have a line out the door every weekend. Came here on a Friday at 6:30pm and there was only one couple in there. This was just mind blowing delicious. read more

Lunar's Pho - Number 11 and them spicy wontons - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Lunar's Pho is a new pho restaurant that opened on 38th not too long ago. There was a previous pho restaurant here that Steve and I were very fond of and were surprised a new one went into the space. I love pho with chicken in it. Especially during a rainy winter day but you won't see that menu option here as the meat is beef which from my understanding is the most authentic. I went with the meatball pho and is my second choice next to a bowl of chicken pho and it did not disappoint at all. It was a very good bowl of soup and I really enjoyed the broth. The vegetables were nice and fresh too! We were also given a small slice of Casava Cake which was complimentary which was a very nice touch to a very satisfying lunch on a rainy Saturday! read more

After a year and many repeat visits this is for sure our spot. We have tried a few different foods, but for my money I cannot stop getting the Pork Bahn Mi and chicken wings. Thats my order and even when I want to try something else I am likely ordering that. We are likey visiting this place once a month and some times once a week. If we get sick we grab a giant bowl of pho to help get rid of those colds. If we are in a hurry hard to beat. Need a quick snack how about a bahn mi to go. I highly recommend and have yet to have a single compliant or issue. Plus the family running the spot or so nice and friendly. read more

Cash/Card accepted (except American express) Dine in Limited public Parking Great for family Restroom available Call in for pick up Grub hub delivery Went here on an early brunch and dined in. Flavor and quality of food is phenomenal. This place requires more mention, another true hidden gem. Located near a residential area in Tacoma, this small quaint restaurant has a small variety of choices for selection, and made to order from scratch. Staff are friendly and helpful. Area kept clean and seems to have been recently renovated. A family ran business without a doubt. Highly recommended and a bang for your buck. Well worth the mention to come in for a quick bite. read more

What a great find for a cold January afternoon! Their take on the classic pho I've enjoyed all of my life is refreshing to say the least. I had the steak ginger pho and it was killer (the steak is wrapped around little pieces of ginger and there is also a ginger sauce on the side)... calling all ginger fans!! My husband had the vermicelli and it was also on point- the pork was delicious and full of flavor as was the fish sauce. They even had popcorn chicken for my picky two year old! We will definitely be back! Priscilla- whom I can only assume is the owner- was extremely personable and we had a great little conversation at the end after she served us complimentary banana cake with a coconut cream sauce. (My husband also really liked her pink gorilla sticker that was on her laptop... shout-out to Seattle gamers everywhere!) Run! Don't walk to this place! Super good! read more

Came Upon this spot on Yelp and decided to check it out due to the high rating. came in ,place wasn't packed. Seems to have only 1 server. She seated us gave us menus and took our drink order we ordered Water and my husband also ordered a coke. We ordered an Appetizer and 2 #12s after waiting almost 10mins . we got our appetizer and after that we waited 30 mins or more before asking about our Pho, we noticed a couple that came in 10 mins after us get their 2 appetizer's and their pho... after inquiring about our meal i was told that there was a mix up and that couple had received our meal by accident. which was fine but i think the server should have informed us instead of letting us feel like we've been forgotten. after getting our meal we didn't want to ask for anything else because we didn't know how long it would take to get anything. The server tried to make it right by comping our appetizer. The pho was good but i'm not sure we'll come back due to the service. read more

I'm not sure if I just picked the wrong day to try this place out but this is the worst pho I've ever had. I love pho and eat it probably 3-4x per month. I try different places all the time and figured I'd give this place a try after reading reviews. Bad choice. I picked up my pho right around 1pm. I got chicken pho to go. Got home and was sooo excited to dig in. The portions are very small compared to other places but I wasn't too worried about that. I took a huge sip and instantly gagged. It was sooooooo salty !!! Ew. I really mixed up all the noodles and toppings and took another sip and still overwhelmingly salty. I poured half the broth out and poured fresh water in it to dilute it. I take another sip and still so salty. I add more water until it was finally drinkable. I'm assuming they used boiled chicken thighs bc the chicken was gray. It had an odd taste to it. Can't really pinpoint the flavor. The guy working was super friendly! Made a couple jokes and just very welcoming. Overall, I don't think I'll be back to this place for pho. read more

O.M.G. sooooo good. So I took my family to Washington State Fair today. And on the wait out we drove through Tacoma and found this Gem. Lunar's Pho is amazing. I had the vermicelli special. Flavorful, juicy, and fresh. My kids had the tofu fried rice and chicken wings. Again....juicy and flavorful. Some places get them really salty, not here. They were perfect. My wife had the oxtail and steak pho, and she ate every last bite. I totally recommend lunar's Pho. We will be back. read more

I really like this restaurant- the spices on the grilled chicken are wonderful and full of flavor. The staff is warm and friendly; they make you feel appreciated. read more

Never going back. Food was okay tasting until I found a bandaid in my pho. Thought I was eating a rough piece of meat, turns out it was someone's bloody bandaid! Server came to me and said "no one in the back has any wounds on their hands, so I'm not sure how it got in there"... just comped my pho and not the whole meal. So disgusting. read more

Lunar's Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Went because my usual bun bo hue spot was closed and this place was nearby and had good reviews. Customer service was great and fast. The price made me cringe but i gave it a try anyway. The appearance and veggies it came with looked so promising. The sliced vietnamese ham loaf was the best i ever had, it must've been homemade bc i never tasted one this good at any restaurant. Unfortunately, this was the only thing i liked about the bun bo hue, the broth just didn't hit the mark and my bowl was mostly broth .... Had half the amount of noodles and half the amount of meat and more expensas my usual spot. The noodles were also not fully cooked, the chopstick couldn't even grip the noodles. I want to say that maybe the day i went was a bad day but to be honest, i probably won't try it again. read more

Lunar's Pho - 12. Spicy Noodle Soup (Bun Bo Hue) - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

First time eating here. We ordered the beef rib pho and honey walnut shrimp. The food was good and service was excellent!! I would definitely come back for their beef rib pho and try other items on the menu. read more

I've had well over a thousand bowls of pho in my lifetime. I can say that the pho I just experienced at Lunar's Pho is easily the best I've had in decades. The bowl was so fragrant, it took me back to being a kid having pho for the first time at a small pho restaurant in the Tacoma Hilltop. And dare I say it was even better than my mom's home cooked pho (sorry, mom). And the service was top notch. Very friendly and attentive. I live an hour away but I will definitely be coming back again. read more

I really like the food and the ambiance was really good and I'm not even going to talk about the service because it was excellent

My go-to pho, hands down. Everything about this place is top quality! From the moment you walk in, the gentleman at the front always greets us, sits us & gets us going right away. The broth is always so good & are never stingy with the meat hahaha read more

There is only one dish I order regularly from Lunars- but probably important to note that I am extremely picky about restaurant food. I bristle at the thought of ordering out what I tend to make better or more frugally at home. That said, I've had a lot of pho. Phenomenal pho and mediocre pho. Cold or hangover, even bad pho can get the job done. But Lunars Steak and Ginger (Hanoi) pho is TRULY elite pho. After finding this, I dont bother with anything else. The broth is absolutely perfect as is- and doesn't need any tinkering, although I always do about halfway through my broth (force of habit, I guess, but really it's NOT necessary). This dish is pure genius, skill, and love. I'd heard a rumor that the owner had once done a bubble tea thing - and if that ever happened again, I'd be first in line. If youre looking for a perfect pho, the Hanoi is it: look no further. read more

Delicious pho and amazing Thai tea. Came here with my boyfriend and we shared crab Rangoon, fresh rolls and rib pho everything was so good.

Wow the broth the beef just quality food can't believe I found this gem!! Ginger wrapped beef perfect addition to pho aroma read more

Lunar's Pho - Beef pho and chicken bah mi - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Best Pho and Bahn Mi's in town! Attentive service in a small family run establishment.

What a lucky find for Father's Day! The first thing that jumped out at me was the host, Priscilla's positivity. I was just picking up takeout, but she was super friendly! The location is clean and the decoration is nice, but understated. The prices are very reasonable and the food is top notch! I got the pork/eggroll vermicelli bowl and my wife got the beef and brisket pho. Both were as good as we've had anywhere. This will be our new #1 option for Vietnamese food in the area. read more

Great broth and service. Most flavorful I've had in a while. Spring rolls had a bit of crunch to them

Love the food and the service! Staff is always very friendly and food always comes quick. We usually get their brisket pho and meatball pho and split the chicken bahn mi. One of my favorite pho restaurants I've been to in Tacoma, read more

Lunar's Pho - Salt n Pepper shrimp - Vietnamese Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Delicious, affordable and great size portions! I went here a couple nights ago with a group of 6 family and friends and loved it. There isn't a lot of seating for larger groups so keep that in mind. It seems they mostly prefer 4 people or less. We parked in front and then saw a sign on the door noting that there is parking in the back which is nice to know. I will definitely be back. I had the pork vermicelli but also tried the pork pho and banana cake and all of them were scrumptious. Service was fast. read more

Always so welcoming when guest arrive, clear an precise when answering questions about the menu. Sauces are always wiped down and clean. Prices are great especially with inflammation going on. Overall a great place for pho in Tacoma which is hard to come by. What's really great is they give bottled water for free instead of serving tap water. read more

Great home cooking Pho. Excellent service and mom and pops restaurant feel. Will definitely go again and recommend anyone to try. Broth was rich and flavorful. Had the Bun Bo Hue and fried intestines Wifey had the oxtail pho read more

What a delicious surprise for our Sunday date! We looked up pho restaurants in Tacoma and saw this one with all 5 star reviews and let me telll you what! This place was so great! We were greeted right when we came in by a very nice gentleman. We were sat immediately anywhere we wanted! The very sweet lady was our server! She was incredibly nice and fun! We ordered the spring rolls, brisket and steak pho, and the back ribs pho! All so delicious and the back ribs were perfectly tender! Just an all around amazing experience and we WILL be coming back! Thank you for such a nice meal! read more

A great addition to Tacoma! I think Lunar's Pho took over what used to be Dragon's Pho in this spot. The inside is very clean and modern looking. The servers are extremely helpful and super nice. I've made conversations with 2 of the servers here the 2 times I've been here. Both times I came, I ordered their bun bo hue, which if you are not familiar with is almost like a spicy beef noodle soup that comes with thicker noodles, sliced beef, pig's feet, and congealed pork blood (for those adventurous foodies). I love bun bo hue more than pho actually and I think I found my favorite go-to spot now whenever I'm craving bun bo hue. I have yet to try any of their other items on the menu, but I think next time I might give either their oxtail pho or beef rib pho a try. Those 2 seem to also be very popular here. One thing I do love about this restaurant is its condiments and spice jars. They have everything you need from sriracha, chili garlic, chili oil/paste, fish sauce, shrimp paste, and pickled jalapenos. I love it when Asian restaurants include a spice rack. read more

Ordered online, literally took over an hour to "prepare meal". Never got a status update. Eventually cancelled order

Cute little find in Tacoma. My partner and I visited last night and was pleasantly surprised by how good the dishes were. She had the quintessential beef pho with rare beef steak and I had the hủ tiếu nam vang (phnom penh noodle). I was a bit apprehensive at getting that since most places don't include all the little ingredients that make that dish so good, but to my surprise they had all the ones I was expecting! From the right veggies (bean sprouts, chives) to the even the little fat crisps to make it so savory. I gulped down the whole bowl of soup. A bit of regret at the end since that definitely put me over the edge, but I would gladly do it over. I unfortunately inhaled this too quickly so don't have a photo, but will update this post with pictures on a later trip. As a new restaurant special, they also gave us complimentary banana bread with coconut sauce and that was a nice touch! Definitely keeping this little gem in my book. read more

I love the Phở here. Will definitely come back and try other dishes. ATTENTION: they are in the location of Aunty Pho. But they are not Auntie Pho. Lunar's Pho is way better. You must try! Nice service. If you come now, you will probably get a complementary Banh Chuoi Dessert. THE BEST IN TOWN Come and enjoy it before they officially put it on dessert menu read more

I love it here! The number of menu items is very small but the food is so good. The owner's family who often are the servers are so nice and accommodating. I've come here several times and almost tried everything. Their broth is super good and the meat are fresh and generous. You should stop by here. Out of all the pho places around this area, their broth is my utmost favorite. They have gingered garlic and shrimp paste on their table which is the first for me. I appreciate that. read more

I don't usually do reviews but this time I decided to support this business!! Scrolling thru yelp yesterday and found this new restaurant so I decided to give it a try :) And the food is amazing!!!
