If you're looking for the best Pho spot in the Gburg/Rockville area.... LOOK NO FURTHER!!! As an Asian American raised by parents whom were born and raised in Southeast Asia, this is the place my parents used to take us growing up... and that's all you need to know because I trust that my parents know GOOD authentic pho. The broth here is phenomenal and delicious. You will not be disappointed. I do have to say though that you are coming here for the food, not the experience. Once you arrive, the ambiance of this place is very old school oriental. They have the same artwork on the walls from when I came here growing up, they have surely faded. Nothing spectacular or very nice about the restaurant aesthetic. But I'm here for the food not the atmosphere! So this is not something to deter me from continuing to eat here. The place is still clean and tidy. They started using disposable utensils, cups, and plates to serve with (the pho bowls are reusable though). Maybe to cut down on water use, time, and having to hire a dishwasher? This kind of upsets me because I am very environmentally cautious, and I see this as wasteful business behavior, BUT like I keep saying, they have the best pho, and you will not be disappointed. As far as service, the pho always seems to come out timely, I usually do not have to wait too long. I usually always order spring rolls and summer rolls as well; both are absolutely delicious and exactly what I want and expect from those dishes. Some other restaurants do not do it right, so this is another reason why I appreciate this place. Ultimately, I highlyyyyy recommend you to try this place if you have not yet. My friends are loyal to a pho spot near their house, and I always have told them it is not the best pho, you gotta go to Pho 75! They didn't believe me. I finally took them here and they were pleasantly surprised that I was right! And now they don't mind making it out here whenever we are craving pho! read more

The Pho and service is really good. We have been going there for 26 years. It is quick and well prepared. Not like any other. read more

They are NOT open until 8pm. They close at 6:30pm. Update your website. We have made several trips to eat here to find them closed by 6:30pm. read more

I have been dining here for over two decades. Today was a different experience. The staff seemed disengaged and lethargic. The food was great. I had a small Seafood PHO. $9.50 for a small soup. Nothing negative to say about the soup. ***CASH ONLY***** The thermostat was powered off. It was FREEZING inside on a Thursday at 12:00pm. It was 36 degrees outside when I was having my lunch. PLEASE PLEASE turn on the heat. It wouldn't hurt to offer hot tea or coffee to guests when they arrive either. Would I recommend this place, ABSOLUTELY! But they do need to make some minor changes to make the dining experience better. Best regards, Chef Candra read more

Pho 75 - Seafood PHO - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Food: - #1 Small: Always a solid bowl of pho. One of the best places out there and it's great on a cold day. Experience: You just walk in and wait to get seated. Service is hella fast and typical of other no frills Asian restaurants. Value: Prices have gone up a fair amount (small is $9.50 and large is $10.50) but for the consistent quality, it's still a go-to spot. read more

Pho 75 - #1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I've been coming here the last 20 years or so and this place never disappoints. I always stick with the #12 - Tai and Chin and get an order of their egg rolls. Service is so fast. Quick in and out in less than 30 minutes. Still cash only, but what Pho place isn't. Due to Covid- they now give you plastic spoons and sealed chopsticks to eat - a lot more sanitary than before. Parking is still an issue - sometimes I park at the Giant parking lot and walk over. read more

This is a nice place to enjoy a hot bowl of steaming pho without breaking the bank. It's situated in a small crowded plaza with parking available.This is a no frills cafeteria style, cash only restaurant so be aware of that. The silverware consists of disposable chopsticks and plastic spoons, not even soup spoons so it's a bit hard to enjoy the pho. There's a ATM at the nearby 7-Eleven and a Chinese bakery with yummy baked goods next door. If you're coming to enjoy customer service and niceties, this isn't the right place to do so but if you want flavorful pho with a decent amount of meat, this is the place for you. read more

Pho 75 - Standard size pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

5 stars! Went in 45 minutes before closing worried about getting our food in time and having enough time to finish everything. We were ready to get everything to-go in case it took too long, but the service here was super quick. Faster than some fast food places. We got seated immediately, ordered and got our pho within 10 minutes. My friend asked for extra noodles and got them right away. The interior isn't the most decked out but everything was neat and tidy. The only thing to keep in mind is this spot is cash only. With the amazing prices, and fast service I had to give them 5 stars. read more

delicious pho! found this place randomly next to my favorite bubble tea place. Seafood pho was surprisingly good since I usually get chicken pho. The noodles were the correct softness and soup was on point! We also ordered fried egg roll that you don't see cuz they were gone... delishhhh. Order the egg rolls, amazing! only down side to this place is cash only.. make sure you have cash!! read more

Pho 75 - seafood pho + pho with brisket - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Spring Rolls *hard, chewy and the best part was the plastic wrap that was left on my roll, peanut sauce was very watery Chicken Pho *the broth resembled more of a vegetable broth I was hoping for more of a chicken broth, accompanied condiments were not fresh Definitely did not feel sanitary, spoons and chopsticks were sticky. Sriracha and plum sauce also sticky and oozing out of containers. Table and chairs also were not clean. Food was edible but felt dirty eating there. read more

Absolutely adore this place. Started coming here at a very young age with my family and this is still the best pho we have ever been to. Love the broth, noodles, sides and coffee. Great affordable place for anyone looking for quality pho. read more

Pho 75 - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Great value and delicious. Accepts cash only and there's a wait but service is good and the food is consistently tasty and prepared fresh.

Decent pho and fast service. It is cash only. Food comes out really fast. I got the small pho tai bo vien; it's usually on the menu at most Vietnamese restaurants but not here so when my order came out, the bo vien was on the side in a small bowl. Broth was good, but I felt like it was a bit on the watery side. read more

Pho 75 - Menu (As of October 2021) - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

This place is something you should experience at least once. That may the most you can handle since the parking there BLOWS! The service was hilarious. I was seated at a table and literally no more than fifteen seconds later the waiter was inches from my face with notepad in hand ready to take my order. When I informed him that I needed to look at the menu first, he rolled his eyes at me and stormed off. I watched him do this to several other guests during the course of my stay...it was awesome. So I got my order in with minor difficulty (spring rolls and small pho meatball) and waited for my food...and by "waited" I mean looked at my phone for about ninety seconds and VOILA there is all was. As some of you may know from my other reviews, I do not like cucumber...at all. Not one bit. BUT...somehow they snuck some cucumber into these spring rolls and it was totally tolerable. These things are nice and flavorful. Their texture is perfect and they certainly make you feel like you're biting into a crisp spring morning. They were really lovely. The Pho was an interesting cacophony of flavors and textures. There was a lot going on in there. First, the broth was very tasty and robust but suffered from a little bit too much salt. This was most evident once I was done eating all of the noodles and and broth was all that remained. The noodles were a little mushy for my preference, but they'd probably been sitting in liquid for several hours before they entered my bowl. The meatballs were fascinating; they lacked that frequent chewiness that you get when there's a fair amount of tripe in them. They were very tender but had more of a pork flavor than I am accustomed to in Vietnamese meatballs. To be honest, I'm not sure if I like them more or less than the usual meatball. I like this place and might try it again but the linchpin for that to happen would be some kind of improvement in the parking (all of the spaces seemed to be reserved for the 7-Eleven or the Baskin-Robbins with capital letter threats of towing for violators). Maybe I'll do what another reviewer suggested and just drive by and see if there's a spot...if yes, I'm in, if no, then I'm off to Pho Nom Nom (or Pho 95 once it reopens after its renovation). Here's my suggestion: 1) Pray to the parking gods that you'll find a spot 2) know what you want before you go in (or risk the grumpy eye roll) 3) slurp away on the pho yumminess! read more

The very best pho in the area. This one has three locations. The Adelphi location is the best, followed by the one in Fairfax, and finally in Rockville. The Rockville location however serves pho chay (vegetarian pho) that is the very best in the region. The Adelphi location does not offer a full vegetarian option. However the Adelphi location is phenomenal at what they offer. Parking and driving to the Adelphi location is a bit rough due to the metro construction. If you want a variety of menu items beyond pho, try Mi La Cay in Wheaton. Definitely come here if you want traditional pho that is the very best. read more

Me and hubby stopped here after a doctors appointment cause I've been on a pho binge lately and I'm glad we did the pho was so good and the had a bunch of different ways you can get your pho. It is a cash only place so make sure you stop at a atm before you go much it's inexpensive and good as hell read more

This place is back! They've worked a bit on much needed renovations. It's not a high end restaurant atmosphere, but it is repainted and better lit than a few years ago. Also, they have brought back the heavy duty cutlery which had been missing since the pandemic. The service is always lightning fast and the food is still very good. My only complaint is they served hot (warm) coffee in a cheap clear plastic cup designed for cold beverages. Probably should invest in appropriate cups for hot drinks. Other than that, I give this a solid 4 stars or maybe even 4.5! read more

One of the Best pho places in Rockville! And that's a tall order my Yelper Friends as there is much delicious pho in Rockville. So this place is great because they are pho & only pho. They do it right! Deep flavor, amazing yet simple broth. They noodles are fresh - a truly restorative soup. I normally get the well done brisket but today I got the white chicken noodle soup. Not terribly traditional but it was awesome! My husband got the meatball which I've had before and is super yum too. We devoured our bowls. Cash only if you please. read more

Solid pho spot. Only downside is that they close relatively early, but you'll leave happy if you eat here.

BEST CHICKEN PHO. I love chicken pho and I now only get it at Pho 75--all others can't even compare. I didn't know it was a thing, but some pho places don't even serve chicken pho with chicken broth, rather with beef broth... BUT don't fret because this place does! I've had the beef pho, too. Their broths taste fresh and are flavorful without being too salty. My go-to pho order is #18, white meat chicken with steamed beansprouts (I usually ask for steamed so I'm not stressed to immediately put them in when the hot bowl of goodness arrives.) Also, the ratio of meat and noodles is good. The coffee drinks are good--iced or hot! Service is great, the staff is friendly, and they are quick and efficient. Cash only. read more

I've been coming here for pho since I can remember. A bowl of pho for about $7? The best fall weather meal. They also have spring rolls that have shrimp and pork in them - SO good. My favorite dessert beverage they have is the pink jelly with coconut milk. Good childhood memories! The service is very fast. You won't be disappointed! read more

Pho 75 - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Fast service! Sit down anywhere, someone will comes with a menu, order, and voila your food is out pretty much instantaneously. The pho was piping hot, noodles were cooked the right amount, meat was generous, and soup was alright. I felt like the soup could have been a little more flavorful, but overall it was a good bowl of pho. The seating is jumbled, with 2-4 person tables surrounding a rows of cafeteria-style seating. This is perfect for a solo eater (like myself), but watch out if you're with a large party and want to sit together! Also, parking is inconvenient, so carpool!! read more

We have been going to pho 75 for 30+ years, starting with their place at Rosslyn and since then to this one in Rockville, Md. Never disappointed until yesterday. It is clear that this place has been sold and is under new management. Quality of Pho has significantly deteriorated and not clear how hygienic the kitchen is anymore. In fact, soon after the meal my wife's stomach became upset. Could be because some of the meat pieces were uncooked (although we ordered well done cuts and meatballs) and put in a broth that was not boiling, and/or not kept in it long enough to cook properly. Whatever may have been the reason, the attention to details that the old owners had is conspicuous by its absence. Wishing the new owners the best in trying to reach the standards of excellence for its pho and other Vietnamese food that this place was legendary for in the area. read more

Had many a bowl of pho here over the years. It was always a "go to", However, I recently had one there, first meal of the day. One and a half hours later I was erupting diarrhea in a public space with no place to turn to. It would have been quite embarrassing if I made a scene. I did not. That was my first meal that day so I know it was the pho. Bottom line, I no longer eat there. The positive result is that I have discovered so many more interesting lunch places and a wider menu on "Yelp". One thing to know using this method is to check the number of reviews. One hundred is my minimum to begin looking to compensate for the 5 stars by a places family and friends. PS With all the money "75" is pulling in, spend some money on a paint crew, and an interior decorator, especially in the vestibule where one is greeted by a worn out glass case with no happy colors or interesting info. Or is the game "just grab all the money one can now and the hell with the rest"? read more

I'm the I never comment Yelper- my sister is like forever Elite since inception. I had to comment b/c this will be factual. Came here about a year ago and it was BAAAAAD... like a 0.5 Star bad. Been coming since he early 90s Had lunch earlier today- a solid 4 & very happy. The place is brighter... #bluer The place was packed w folks & waiting. They had OG Sriracha & OG utensils back. Egg roll was good & Pho was right- salted lemonade was nice. #enjoyable on the last cold Sunday of '24 The service was just ok- those with/high service expectations from an old school still cash only Pho place won't EVER get it... Eat your food & leave... For me it's a never gonna be a 5 so a 4 is fair- keep the Pho right & HOT, don't ever water down your Sriracha & make the effort to keep the utensils real. #please Last- the prices in general... $10-13 seems to be the new cheap- Pho was supposed to be cheap, right?. As w/ McDs, Pho may or may not be cheap any longer. #itsjustpho #slurp read more

We do not sit down inside restaurants anymore due to Covid. So we got takeouts. I have had pho from this restaurant a few times. The soup is very good. We ordered #1 from the menu. Good portions with plenty of meat. This place is cash only so don't count on paying with credit cards. read more

I've been eating pho at this store for last 25yrs, but yesterday I had a really bad experience there. It was the worst customer service ever, in fact, it was more like an verbal abuse. As soon as I walked into the store, I said and gestured "table for 2" to the waiter there. The guy told me to sit in one of the table by the entrance. As soon as I sat down I told him I'm ready to order, so he came over immediately. I told him 1 small #1 and 1 small #16. Then he said as he jots down the order, 16... meatballs, I said yes, then he asked, 1 meatball 2 meatball? I was confused so I repeated my order. Then he asked louder, and I still didn't get it. Finally he raised his voice, so loud almost everyone in the store turned around to look at us. Then he pointed to the seat across from me, and I was like, oh two people yes. Then he let out this long exasperated sigh, threw his head into the air and walked away. I just stared at him in disbelief, what the hell was that?? I just couldn't understand his heavy accent that's all. I was extremly polite the whole time. I already gestured 2 people as soon as I can walked in, plus why would I order 2 bowls of noodles for myself?! Anyhow, he should not have raised his voice with me. That was just crazy!! Then the noodles came, and I was even more disappointed to find that the broth was not like what I'm used to getting in the past. I've been eating pho at this store for 25yrs, and what I had yesterday was not the same as what I gotten in the past. The broth was very watered down, and it tasted soooo salty I couldn't drink any of it. My husband said the same thing. This was my experience yesterday. I will not be returning to this store ever again. read more

Without a doubt the best pho in the DMV metro area. I grew up eating pho, both home-made and in restaurants and all these years I can always rely on a good-helping of pho from Pho 75. Champion of the national dish of Vietnam with no local rival coming close to topple it. The criteria when judging, includes: 1. Broth - aroma and richness 2. Meat - quality and quantity 3. Noodles - texture 4. Vegetables - freshness * Unlike some other local rivals, there's no other dishes (no rice, no other tyoes of noodles) offered here ** Strict cash only price Ambience: all these years all the locations have kept a simple eatery look; no investments in decor Staff: mediocre In spite of evrything it is worth the drive and worth withdrawing cash from the ATM to get to one of the Pho 75 locations around the Washington DC suburbs. read more

Pho 75 - Pho with everything - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I found this place on Yelp based on reviews and distance. It was only a 15-minute drive, so I was happy. The parking lot was small and congested. It's a lot of business around this strip of stores. Luckily, I was able to find a spot by the door. This is definitely a hole in the wall spot. There are not a lot of decor or signs, but a kindly reminder at the door that THEY ONLY ACCEPT CASH. Hey, ok. I'm glad I did my homework already and brought cash. There were a lot of people inside and all all I could see was eating and very little talking. I ordered the #17, I think. It was the large Pho with beef. This is my second time eating Pho, so I had to see how my friends were eating it. I ordered Summer Rolls and Spring Rolls, which I crushed first. I love the Hoison Sauce. The brother of the Pho was good. I did add my touches of the Siracha and some more Hoison Sauce to my liking. My two guests and I liked the food. Overall, it was good but not great. Would I ho again, yes I would. The price is right as well. The total bill was $51.00 for 3 people. I also had the Thai Tea. I liked it. I will be back again. read more

Carry out for me only because of COVID. My family had some pho from this place and it's just as good dine in. Just have to go home and heat up the broth again.

This is my favorite pho place of all time. I come here about every other week. The only thing they sell here is pho, drinks, egg rolls and spring rolls. They do all of it really well. Their pho has the best broth I have ever had. It is super flavorful. I couldn't recommend it more. For only $6.95 per bowl, it is the best deal in town. Service is super fast so it is a great place to come when you are hangry and don't want to wait!! Also I love the older man who brings the pho out on a tray. read more

3.5 stars Pho 75 is still the best chain in town, but for some reason this location is not my favorite. The pho still comes out old school style with the elderly Vietnamese man. The service is bare bones (as expected from the soup nazis) but the head waiter hates me because of my northern Vietnamese accent. Oh well. The soup is still good. It does not come out as boiling hot as in the falls church or Arlington locations so the raw beef doesn't really cook too well. The cashier lady is always nice to me. read more

Always super busy for a reason! It is the best pho around. I can swear by it. This is the only place I want to get my pho at. Veggie pho is amazing and I know the other meat options are as well. Please come visit this location if ever in the area, it will most definitely be worth it. They take CASH only so please remember that! read more

Pho 75 - The only place I'll ever want for veggie pho. - Vietnamese Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

I've been coming here for over 20 years and this spot has always been my go to/favorite pho place. I'm sure they must have changed management because I just ordered Pho and the broth was extremely clear and bland. Also, there was parsley instead of cilantro (cilantro is an essential ingredient in Vietnamese cuisine, especially pho!) I asked for cilantro, and they gave me a paper plate of chopped up parsley. I was in disbelief. I asked why is there parsley in my pho and the server responded that we are in the US, so we use "American Cilantro" which is parsley. This was super disappointing. Unfortunately, I will not be coming back. read more

I've heard so much about this place but it was okay for me. Ordered a small #1 pho and the egg rolls. Food came out within 5 minutes of ordering. Egg rolls were good (you really can't go wrong with egg rolls). As for the pho, the soup and meat were good. However, the noodles were a huge letdown for me. Something about the texture did not seem right and almost broke a bit too easily for me. If you're looking for a place to quickly grab pho for lunch, this is the perfect place for you. However, if you care about the quality of noodles in your Pho, not sure if you would enjoy it here. Tip: This place is cash only! Don't forget to take out some money before you stop by. read more

I know this place since I first moved to the US 20 years ago. I don't mind their cash only policy, I have to accept that their service is fast and the food is good. One thing I notice the staffs are not that nice. But today, I experienced it myself. I came at 6:35pm with my husband. We thought that they're close at 7pm. The OPEN neon sign was already off but we still saw some customers eating inside. I was in a rush getting off from the car that we parked in front of the restaurant. Suddenly I saw one of the staffs who usually took order, got out from the dining area and waited for me in the waiting area. I opened the door and politely asked him if they were closed? He said with his mean face: READ THAT! while pointing out a paper notification posted on the glass window. I was surprised with his answer and insisted him to answer my question, so I asked him again: Are you closed? And he finally said, YES! He could answer my questions politely by saying: sorry we're close or something. I said to my husband who waited in the car, I won't come to this restaurant again. No matter how good is your PHO, I can't accept such a treatment like that. read more
