Noodles Pho U - Vietnamese Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

Well since I work in Willowbrook, IL and wanted something light to eat out of eating so many heavy dishes for the holidays I surprisingly forgot about this place. And it was not too far from my work for lunch. I had been here before when I worked in Romeoville, IL but had a really good craving for Vietnamese cuisine. They have three locations one in Lombard, Naperville and this one in Bolingbrook but my GPS said this was the closest one. The Pho is very traditional is good but wish they gave more Basil Leaves as condiments .It was of course convenient since I have to drive back to Chicago or any of the suburbs while I'm at work if it's far away. The Fresh vegetable and shrimp summer rolls or should we call the spring rolls is also very delicious and worth trying as well. I will probably next time try the con chein or fried rice dishes but the normal staple in Vietnamese diet is Pho and Fresh spring rolls. Very simple and healthy dining. I'll probably come back here again like I said. Do give this place a try. It is a hidden gem in the southwest suburbs for Vietnamese or any rarity of them Southeast Asian cuisine although they call this a fusion place. I didn't see too many Thai dishes on the menu but then again this is Vietnamese thus the name "Noodles Pho U". read more

**This is for the Bollingbrook location only, had a great experience in Naperville ** I cant speak for the food here because we walked out after 25 minutes, no.one came by once never even got water. We tried to flag the workers down they waved back but never came. There were 4 or 5 open tables when we walked in and it still took 10 plus minutes to be seated. The floors were dirty, tables sticky, and the condiment bottles definitely lacked attention for quite sometime. They are busy so that says something. read more

Ok, slightly dissapointing , but prefer the Lombard location more. Larger portions served at Lombard locations. Pho was good but had a lot of fat in it. Less noodles and more broth. Small plate of lime (1) , only a couple jalopeno and they were small and less than the other place, and the sprouts of which were plenty accompanied the pho. Had a side of spring rolls which were good. Service so so. Waiters also decided to have lunch while my daughter & I dined along with 2 other tables. Odd. Just had an odd vibe. Almost felt like I imposed on them. Planning to try Naperville location at some point. Doubt Ill be back. read more

My family and I love going for Pho! My son even asked for me to pul him out of school lunch. Nothing better then a a great beef broth, noodles, meat, vegetables and some spice. If you ever need a hardy meal, I definitely recommend! read more

Everything I tried was good. I can't remember what they're called but I ordered 4 soups and all of them weee good.

After trying this place for delivery, let me tell you, the food is amazing. They continue to use fresh ingredients and you know the food was just cooked before serving it. The vegetables still has a crunch that I favor. Wilted, over cooked veggies are no good. The dishes we've tried over the past months were cooked on point. It never was salty or too oily like other establishments that serve similar dishes. As far as I know our orders were never messed up, which is unlike other restaurants that provide delivery. I have not dined in to compare my previous experience but I am happy to give 5 stars for the quality of food that has been maintained during delivery! Will continue to order! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch and had great service and food. They are known for their pho but I wasn't in the mood for soup. I contemplated between the bahn mi and the vermicelli. I opted for the vermicelli with pork which was a good choice. It came exactly as I hoped and it was great. Nothing was overpowering and the variety of each bite is impressive, as it usually is with Vietnamese food. Service was quick and friendly. I think my bill with tax and tip was right around $12. With bahn mi it probably wouldn't been around $9. This is a great place and I'd recommend it to anyone. read more

This place has the best pho around ! The entire staff is really nice and food comes out fast. read more

Noodles is a fun word, it just slips right off your tongue and out of your mouth. The food is kindof the opposite, especially here. Slurp, in goes the noodle. We came here because my husband loved noodles like I love chocolate. It was a bit spartan in decor but very clean with pleasant and efficient service. I had the Pad Thai and iced tea. They were both very good but I was not blown away like my better half was. We shall have to return, maybe I will have that ideal meal like he did. In the meantime keep saying noodle, it's entertaining. read more

Noodles Pho U - Pepper beef - Vietnamese Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

It was a relatively warmer day, around 45 degrees and having hot pho just felt right. My 8 year old son and I had visited this establishment on Thursday 11/14/2013 at 7:20 PM. We were welcomed by a gentleman with glasses, who appears to be in his mid 40's and a younger gentleman who appears to be in his early twenties. Both had told us to go ahead and sit wherever we like. We walked ourselves to a table against the wall, next to the window, and sat down. Shortly after, a lady named Kem provided us with menus and walked away and did not come back until the moment I looked up, to asked if we were ready to order. At this point, it was approximately 7:28 PM.She did not write down our order, but had asked for a repeat just so she heard us correctly. My son order a Ramune ( soda pop) for $2.00, #130 Pho Bo Vien( meat ball) for $7.95, and I ordered #120 Pho Xe Lua( eye of round slice, brisket, shank, tendon, beef ball, & tripe) for $8.95 with two glasses of ice water. Yes. I had to ask for ice water. Keep in mind, it is 45 degrees outside. The restaurant as freezing. All the patrons inside kept their jackets on. The walls are painted a light gray. Think of the color of the tool bar from windows 95. It's gray and dull. The floors are light wood and the seating appears to be purchased from IKEA. She brought out the waters, Ramune, and two plates to bean sprouts, sliced jalapenos, sliced limes, and basil sprigs. Please note that the ice water had a hint of lime, not of my own doing. Both plates of bean sprouts were fresh and firm. The sliced jalapenos looked dried and old. The lime was for sure dried and old because when we tried to squeeze it over our soups, it was rock hard and did not provide any juice. Lastly, the basil was wilted. My son's #130 Pho Bo Vien( meat ball) came out first. There was chopped green onions, cilantro, and sliced raw onions. The description of the dish includes "meat ball". It literally means one meat ball, sliced into thin pieces. The bowl was relatively large filled with lots of noodles and to the brim with soup. The soup lacked flavor. The #120 Pho Xe Lua that I ordered came out 5 minutes after my son's. It was in what I would call an extra large bowl, lots of noodles, filled to the brim with soup, garnished with chopped green onions, cilantro, and sliced raw onions. My pho had very small portions of meats as well. The soup lacked flavor. In the middle of our meal, an inch long centipede was crawling on the wall of which my son against. I walked to grab the older gentleman with the the glasses, pointed to the thing crawling up the wall, and he killed the centipede with a napkin from our table. He had no reaction to the fact that there was a centipede crawling up the wall. As if this sort of thing was a normal day occurrence at all restaurant dining rooms.There was no apology from the restaurant employees that our dining experience was affected by a surprise guest. The bill with tax of $1.90 was a total of $20.80, which we had to ask the server for. I had originally put down $25, waiting for her to come pick it up so that I can get change. Waited, and nothing. So, I ended up taking the $5 back and putting 4 quarters and 2 singles.She came rushing over to grab the payment. Did not ask if I needed change. A curt "thank you" and walked off. As my son exited the restaurant, the younger gentleman who appears to be in his early twenties, did not even look up from his phone and said "thank you". I've read so many positive reviews from Yelp Elites. I have to say I was very disappointed with my overall experience. As someone who lived by The Noodle in Chinatown for over 6 years and moving out to Bolingbrook, I was honestly looking for something that would become a "like home" restaurant. read more

Decent food for the suburbs. I personally come to get bubble tea when I don't feel like leaving the area, but I've began to stop coming there because they are always extremely rude every time I go to order. I am somewhat of a regular as well. No hospitality what so ever, the last time I went there he snatched my card and gave me attitude because I asked if I could pay extra for 3 fruit's in my smoothie. I didn't think it would be an issue since they have house smoothies with a large assortment. I don't think I'll be returning after that. read more

I've been coming here for the past 3-4 yrs or possibly longer. Easily the best Pho that's outside the city. Ive brought countless friends here and they also loved it! Their food is always consist and well made! Kudos to whoever is making the food! You get 5 stars. Yet, most (if not all) the employees lack respect. I stopped coming here for over year due to customer service. I was a weekly customer so they knew who I was. Yet I was always treated poorly. Which sucks especially since I loved the food. Yet, as time went on I stopped coming because I feared they would do something to my food. I'm not saying they did but when you treat your customers poorly...I'm going to assume you handle my food poorly. Hence why I stopped coming for quite some time. Now that I've returned the food is still very good! Yet nothing has changed within the customer service. This place has so much potential...yet only if something changes within the establishment! read more

We used to come here all the time and loved the food. I can't say the same thing about service. Last Sunday we went for late lunch, the tables were dirty and sticky, my dad found a bone where the condiments are. 10 minutes later we got our drinks, we could finally order our food. Each of us got our food in different time, so we couldn't eat together. Plates were dirty, service was horrible. We were party of 5 and they automatically charged us service charge 20%. We paid and never ever coming back. I do love their food, but I can't stand the service. We felt as we were bothering them. As we were leaving the cooks came out into the dining room and had lunch, they sat at the big table, while paying guest (5) had to wait for them to finish eating and be seated. Ridiculous lol read more

Pho was okay but it honestly didn't seem super fresh. Usually I can finish a full bowl of piping hot pho but I wasn't happy with how soggy the veggies were and the tofu was really creepy and slimy. The summer rolls were delicious as was the peanut sauce. read more

I was really hesitant about ordering here but decided to do it anyway. The results were pretty dang good! My first order was #504 Coconut Spicy Chicken, it was delicious not too spicy and not too sweet. Served hot and fresh. However I didn't like the stir fried rice it was too greasy. The egg roll was amazing, it was also hot and fresh. I also received 2 free cran Rangoon with my order. My second order I got the #1103 Singapore Rice Noodle, oh my this was so freaking delicious!! My husband won't eat anything curry, until he tried this dish, now that's what he orders from here. The crab Rangoon is great, I now order my #504 with steamed rice instead if the fried rice but it's still delicious. I tried the #001 Fresh Summer Rolls, I can't say I'm a fan. They are bland and not on my list to reorder. I also had the delicious lychee smoothie with taro pudding, YUM and he hubs has the usual mango smoothie. I think this place is great, portions are decent and prices are reasonable as well. Food always arrives fresh and hot! read more

This place is wonderful. Quick service and open till late at night. There is ample parking although the location looks a little run down. You can also make special requests like making dishes less/more spicy or more/less/no salt because everything is made fresh.

Alright. The Korean stone bowl was sooooo good.... HOWEVER. If you plan to order this, be known (and this comes from someone who cooks/cooked rice every freaking day- I'm an African.) The bowl will burn that rice you so desperately want to eat. It stays so hot that by the time I got to actually eat the rice, it was crunching and stuck in my molars. It's SO good, but so hot! But was Deliiicious the next day when I heated it to normal my mouth can handle this temp. The Thai iced tea is delicious as well, used it to cool my mouth after a spoonful of heat. I got it veryyy sweet, which was perfect. So good! (Sauce called devil spit was not really spicy to me, personally, then again, I eat stew with 2-3 habenero peppers blended in, so, idk how reliable I am) my friend got the pho with jalapenos, extra noodles, but couldn't eat everything. read more

Stay away!!! Terrible customer service. in Google it say curbside pickup . When I arrived and called the server said he was the only one in the store I need to come in. No biggie.

I will never come back because he mocked me for being safe during a pandemic. read more

BF and I decided to try this place because we were craving pho and this was the closest Vietnamese restaurant we could find while in the area. The restaurant was clean and neat on the inside, and the servers were very polite. We decided to order a fruit bubble tea and a banh mi and spring rolls as an appetizer (we were really hungry!) For the entrees, BF ordered brisket pho and I ordered the beef vermicelli noodles. First off, the bubble tea was a disaster. The tapioca was hard/frozen. The drink itself was very watered down and not good at all. The spring rolls tasted nothing like spring rolls. The filling was horrendous, we couldn't even finish them. The bahn mi was okay, but get this: it tasted like spring rolls. Spring rolls that you would get at a regular Chinese restaurant. We were absolutely baffled! The appetizers should've been an indication of what was to come, but we held on to hope that things would get better. Alas, we were sadly mistaken. The pho lacked flavor and depth and the brisket meat was very low quality. The vermicelli noodles were also a bust. The meat was tough and tasted too much like a barn smells. And the only vegetable it came with was lettuce and carrot. There was no basil or bean sprouts or even cucumber. We ate as much as we could because we'd paid for it, but by no means did we enjoy it. We left the restaurant with a $30 hole burning in our wallets. This happened about 6 or 7 months ago, and to this day we still talk about that meal. We find the whole situation hilarious now, but in the moment we were devastated. Definitely never coming here again. read more

Service is sucks and they automatically charged u 18% or 20%tip. Food is decent but their bean sprouts and basils are all dried out and not fresh! When u ask for a check. They don't bring the receipt. Instead the waiter bring the I pad for u to take a look at the bill and standing there waiting for u to pay on the I pad., so it means u don't have a chance to take a good look at your bill. Because he is holding the I pad and telling you the swiped the credit card . All of the waiters are have attitude problem ! Never coming back! read more

My friends and family wanted to meet up for an early dinner and most of them were in this area. We decided to come to this Noodles Pho U location because we all tried the other locations so we expect the same food and service. The location is off a strip mall and there was plenty of parking. When we came in, it is a bigger dining area than the one in Lombard. The place is colorful and roomy, we were seated right away. We had a party of 12 adults and kids and ordered our drinks first. The staff was friendly and we were able to have four separate checks kewl. However, after we placed our order both our drinks and our food the service was very slow like molasses slow! I felt like they only had two people taking care of the whole restaurant. There was even a family of four that came and sat down and was not even greeted after 10 minutes that they ended up leaving. I ordered the salt and pepper fried smelt fish dinner with brown rice which was extra on the side. And hubby ordered the beef Korean bipbimbop hot bowl dinner. For appetizer be ordered fresh spring rolls with shrimp and pork with peanut dipping sauce. I wish they would at least cut the spring rolls in half so we would have four pieces instead of two huge ones. The food was good as expected. However, we ordered Thai iced tea and Thai iced coffee. The Thai ice tea was not as sweet as expected. And they did not have a Thai iced coffee but Vietnamese coffee which tasted like watered down espresso coffee taste with condensed milk. It was very bitter with overly sweet flavor. All our dreams was served in a plastic to go cup instead of a glass cup. The rest of the folks who ordered their drinks ended up getting them at the middle to end of their meal, I know it takes time to make these specialty bubble tea drinks but really that's unacceptable. The amount of food you receive is plenty that we were able to bag half of it home. The service again was very slow like molasses so if you are on a tight schedule or don't want to sit in a restaurant for more than two hours, then I would recommend to go someplace else. We were not in a rush today, however I felt like the customer service was lacking a bit today. When you see a family with kids that comes into an establishment and doesn't even get menus and have their drinks ordered by 10 minutes, I would be mad and leave too. My recommendation is if you don't mind hanging out and catching up, then this is a place to go because the food is still good. I would only come back here if I was in the area because of the food. But only if my friends and family were not in a rush to go somewhere afterwards and want to hang out for a while. read more

Wow! Great pho! Super fresh ingredients. Great, cheerful service with excellent recommendations. Had the House pho and fresh spring rolls with the bbq rib pieces. The pho was perfectly seasoned broth with loads of fresh veggies and beef. Will try the smoothies next time. Looks like a good selection. read more

While the décor is reminiscent of a nail salon-Pergo flooring, furniture that is clearly of Southeast Asian origin, battered plastic water glasses-this place is a gem. It offers the most authentic pho that I've had since I ate my way through Ho Chi Minh City in '02. The service is fast and friendly, and the bowl of pho is voluminous to the point of being a caricature of American portions, i.e. you wont leave hungry. BTW,I would advise anyone who isn't a fan of tripe to order Pho #122 versus #121. Also, it's pretty cheap, and I like the fact that the use of technology is alive and well-you sign your receipt on a tablet. read more

Got the summer rolls and they were good also the strawberry banana smoothie was really good !

Ridiculous Service charge of almost $6.00 for a $30 check. Very little Noddles on the pho. Server , probably the owner was rude and didn't even listen when I told him about the pho that was almost just soup without noodles. You wanna order another one? -- The nerve to even ask. WE WILL NOT DEFINITELY NOT COME BACK. Food was not good anyway. read more

I love their fruit smoothies! Always my first choice in the area whenever I'm craving a tapioca fruit smoothie!

My wife and I went there for the Pho but found out it's serving not only Vietnamese food but also several dishes of Chinese, Korea, and Thai as well. The #121 Ultimate Beef Pho has generous amount of steak, brisket, flank, tendon, beef ball and tripe on top of a big bundle of rice noodle in a huge bowl. We were surprised it's only charged for $8.95. We also tasted #012 ham sandwich, #050 Vietnamese crispy crepe, #051 steamed rice cake, ... in our 2 visits. They all meet our expectation. Yum! The young waiters and waitress were very polite, provided service as good as the elder lady. We are very glad to find it is so close to our place and definitely will return to taste many other dishes. read more

Enjoyed the chicken pho. Summer rolls excellent. I think pho broth could be better,in comparison with argyle Avenue restaurants.

I'm not even going to give them a star. The guy that took our order was very rude. We ordered smoothie and milk tea and I asked a nicely to label the milk tea and the smoothie so we know the difference and he snapped at me. My taro smoothie was very sweet and I ended up not eating it. He probably did that on purpose. I will not go back to this place. read more
