    P5 pho tai and Bo vien Side order of Teriyaki noodles
    Anuhea B.

    Wow. Hardly ever do reviews but this place is so good, I need to. Hands down the best place for pho and hibachi style fried noodles. I ordered to pick up and it was ready within 10 minutes. It's a small mom and pop/family owned restaurant with the sweetest owners. The food was steaming hot and so fresh. The beef bone broth was so flavorful and the pho veggies were nice and crisp. Absolutely stoked to have a place like this in Tavares. It was empty when I went and the other reviews also said it was pretty slow on their visits. Wish more people knew about it to bring them more business! Go check them out :)

    Consistently great Pho... I love the flank steak pho- plenty of beef and flavor. This restaurant is a hidden secret and is off the beaten path but service is fast and efficient. It has little ambience - in a small strip mall on old 441- but the owner has been in Tavares when the newer 441 was a jungle compared to now. This one of the places that could make Tavares a foodies paradise.

    No frills quality Vietnamese food. Place gets a thumbs up from my Vietnamese SIL. We ordered a lot of everything. Stand ours was P4 Pho, Spicy Hue Noodle Soup and the grilled pork and fried roll with noodles. My favorites were the fish sauce chicken wings. Decent prices. Zero decor but who cares when the food is good.

    Second time trying Michael's and very excited that the Pho was not sold out! Very fresh and delicious food with incredible delicate flavors. My wife enjoyed the Teriyaki Chicken and upgraded from rice to noodles; it did not disappoint, plus the portion is HUGE! We left with leftovers. Also, we did get an order of egg-rolls (2) and they were piping HOT and fresh! Best egg-rolls around by far. The only reason this review is not 5 stars is because the service is lack luster, but very friendly. We were only served our drinks with no sight to refills the entire time we were there. Please note: if you are coming with a large party (5 or more) be prepared to wait if the tables are full. The space is small but perfect for a little date night together.

    great food!

    Great atmosphere, great food great service. We are here from California and recommend this place to anybody that wants a healthy place to eat no frills nice music and great food. I say great food? awesome cuisine!

    Chicken Vermicelli Fried Egg Rolls

    The food is always tasty here with great service. Michael takes great pride in cooking all the dishes and always greets you with an enthusiastic warm smile! The wife is friendly and welcoming! She is always ready to take your order and refill your drinks. Today, I had the chicken vermircelli w/fried egg rolls. The lettuce, cucumbers, herbs, roasted peanuts, and fish sauce w/julienne carrots really topped it off with a lot of flavor! The bowl was not only a "pretty" presentation, it was also fresh and delectable! It was the perfect hot summer day lunch. The husband had the pho, which is one of their staple soup. He always orders the pho, and it is always delicious. The beef based broth is full of flavor juxtaposed with cinnamon stick, star anise, fennel seeds, black cardamons, whole cloves, and coriander seeds! Then rice noodles, thin steak slices, and veggie fixings are added to complete the noodle soup that is Pho! It's delicious on a hot day and so nurturing on a cold rainy day! This is the quintessential Mom & Pop place to have a fantastic meal!

    This place is pho real! The food here is legit! My 5 year old is obsessed with pho, so we usually have to drive out to Orlando. Not anymore! The owners are friendly, and the pho broth is everything.

    Great Pho and such a naturally nice couple who own the place. Meals are made from scratch and authentic. Great addition to our neighborhood.

    As I had read, the Spring Rolls and Gyoza were unmatched in the area- everything is made to order and the place in Tavares smells so yummy!

    We were looking for a Vietnamese restaurant in Ocala and came across this small, convenient place…read more It's just east of I75 off College RD between SE 27th AVE and HWY 200/College. It's a small, unpretentious but pleasant atmosphere. The staff is great. It doesn't have Banh mi sandwiches, which I was hoping for, but we ordered the bun tom nuang (vermicelli BBQ shrimp) and it was fantastic, and for a decent price.

    We came for dinner and being a small place, had to wait about 5-10 minutes. That's a good thing…read more Anyhow, I ordered the veg. Pho and my wife had another that was with meat. For her it's good as the Pho's are gluten free. We also ordered the veg. Spring rolls with tofu (extra $1.50). We each had an order and they were very good. The dipping sauce for my wife was GF and tasty as was the peanut sauce. This all being said, we both felt that the Pho's were ok. We were hoping for a bit more flavor. The server didn't write the orders down and very typical as when not written, something is incorrect. She left off the fried onions from my Pho and had to request them. The goodies of basil, bean sprouts and items were a bit shy for us and after asking for more, the server brought more at no extra charge. Very nice! The food was sufficient and filled us up! Would we come back? Maybe not for a while. We were hoping for a bit more Pho flavor. We would give them 3.5 stars this time. Sorry....

I ordered the Thai tea and it came in a super cute cup and it was one of the best Thai teas I've had in a while. It tasted almost like there was tapioca in there. It was very sweet and flavorful. I also ordered the shrimp and pork summer rolls and it was very fresh and paired well with the peanut sauce to dip. The pad Thai was a little dry on the sauce front. I ordered mine with shrimp, one friend ordered it with just veggies, and my other friend ordered hers with chicken. It wasn't oily at all, but our only critique is it needed more pad thai sauce. We ended up drizzling some siracha on top and it was delicious. I almost got pho, but was craving pad thai, so I would love to go back and try the pho!

You do not have to keep asking for tiny little cups of chili oil like at most other places. I would probably go here again. It is kind of a smaller restaurant with limited seating so I wonder how easy it would be to get a table during busier times. I had a salted lemonade and it tasted like something you would get in Thailand. They crush the whole lemon including the seeds into the drink. It is very good! I forgot to take a photo of it...

This is different, this is the real deal. You look at their menu and know it's legit at once--then there are the desserts which are also legit and remarkably so--very welcome. My bun bowl with skewered grilled pork and spring roll was absolutely perfect. Like, it seriously could not have been any better. Adrian, my waiter, was also excellent. My only critique--and it may seem a petty one--is the music was banal, trite, American and British pop hits from the early 2000s. There is so much good Viet pop and other Asian music--K-pop if nothing else--they could play, so why this? I don't want to hear the same music Kohl's plays at a restaurant so magical and delicious. But aside from the bad choice of tunes, this is a gem in full.

    The name is actually Mama's Pho and it was changed quite a while back! Our 2nd visit to Mama's Pho…read more Anyway, our first visit was about 6 months ago. Our first visit we had Ashlynn F as our server. We struck up a conversation with her on the first visit and found her to be friendly, professional and knew everything about the food and restaurant. So, as we drove over for our second visit we hoped Ashlynn would be there again. Well, our wish came true and we were greeted by Ashlynn when we walked through the doors. Not only did Ashlynn remember us, where we sat on our first visit but also what we ordered the first time!! Anyway if you want great food, great service and some drinks, with or without alcohol, give Mama's Pho a go and we don't think you'll be disappointed. See you next time Ashlynn
