If you looked up 'hidden gem', you'd find Pho 79 DC. Having a craving for Pho near some appointments, we universally agreed to try Pho 79. I suspect many pass by this restaurant to go to the other pho joint across the street, but they're seriously missing out. Hailing from Washington DC, Jayce has been running restaurants for the better part of the last 20 years. We were met with a warm welcome and some easy, friendly banter with the owner who still shuttles back to the East Coast to mind her other restaurants. Their pho is made from scratch, not powdered as many establishments around town claim to be. The ambiance is fun but not loud - clean decor and the absence of heavy dance beats give way to easy jazz selections. It's nice not to have to compete with the volume and hear your dinner party for once. This is easily one of the best pho you can find in town and I highly recommend! read more

This is one of my go to spots for Vietnamese food! I would argue they have some of the best rice dishes. They do use broken rice, which I love! And their meat is very good, juicy, and tender. I try to go here pretty often whenever I'm in Chinatown wanting Vietnamese food. My fiancé loves to get their pho. It's definitely one of his favorite pho spots. I've had their fruit tea, passionfruit juice, taro milk tea, Vietnamese coffee, and salted Vietnamese coffee as well and they are all soo good. This is probably my favorite restaurant to get Vietnamese coffee. I've also have had their wings and ribs specialty items and they are so good. I would literally order the wing with a side of rice sometimes. The service is great! They are very nice. It's such a cute serene environment. Perfect for family dinners or even date nights! My fiancé and I have had a few date nights here and even did a birthday dinner here. The workers are very nice and the owner herself is also extremely nice. She helps out with taking orders and bringing food and even takes time to meet and get to know customers too. The other thing I love about this place is that they sell bags for you to make pho yourself at home! Being Vietnamese, my family loves it and has ordered over a dozen bags because of the quality of the ingredients and convenience it gives them. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants some Vietnamese food. read more

Ambience was clean, roomy & nicely decorated. Service was on par very nice service for a pho establishment. The pho was excellent. The broth was on point, the noodles were perfectly cooked paired with a very generous portion of protein. It felt like an endless amount of protein. We are from Los Angeles so it's really hard to beat finding great pho places here in Las Vegas but this one did it for us. We've tried many pho places over the years since we visit Las Vegas & finally found this one. Will definitely recommend this place to our friends & family visiting Las Vegas! Definitely will return on our next trip! read more

Pho 79 DC - 08. Pho Tai Bo Vien - Vietnamese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Pho 79 DC is an authentic Vietnamese restaurant known for its slow-simmered broths, rice plates, and boba. It is the East Coast outpost of a brand that has grown from a proud, family-owned heritage deeply connected to the 1979 wave of Vietnamese immigrants.History of the Name "Pho 79"The widespread use of "79" in pho restaurant names pays homage to 1979. The number holds profound significance for the Vietnamese diaspora, representing either the year the proprietors immigrated to the United States or a celebrated, pre-war pho restaurant located on 79th Street in Vietnam. In Either case, a lunch justified by good food. As smashimg as a pumpkin sensation in our pop culture of historical events. read more

I enjoyed this family-run Viet spot. The colorful decor is fun and inviting, the portions are great, and it is slightly more wallet-friendly than surrounding pho places. I tried the lemongrass chicken rice plate was delicious. The lemongrass flavor was excellent and the chicken thighs were very tender. My only wish is that they would use the typical broken rice instead of the plain jasmine rice. Fast and friendly service topped off a great meal! read more

The place is clean relaxing, all the condiments are on the table. Service is nice, and friendly. Prices are good, with a reasonable amount of food. I would say this is top 3 Vietnamese restaurants in Vegas. The great thing about the food here is it's not too sweet. It's well balanced of savory, sweet, sour, spicy. I add a lot of chili when I eat Vietnamese food. For me it's a must. The pho is out of this world here. Clean smooth authentic. The rice dishes too are outstanding. So yeah, this restaurant is fantastic. read more

Boy oh boy, this place had delicious food and excellent service, reasonably priced and a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere. so let me tell you all about it. The food, as always, is the centerpiece of my reviews as this is the reason for the event. The pho and the broth was so so good and had lots of meat in the combination version. My new new favorite pho to eat resides at this place. My wife got the Korean short ribs, and she (and I) was glad she did, they were excellent. Precisely seasoned, expertly cooked, and plated to start the senses. We had such a great time here, and we were full by the time we left and didn't feel like we emptied our pockets as a result, so try a few things on the menu like we did, and rest easy you won't break the bank. Super high marks and fully recommend this place, as it's my new Pho spot here in the very competitive Vegas market. read more

It was our first time at this pho restaurant. It is located in a busy plaza. There is street parking as well. The inside is well decorated with beautiful murals; especially of Washington, DC (guess that's where their name came from) Service was a little slow and they weren't even that busy. The food was decent and good; served its purpose of filling our tummies. Nothing really stood out. read more

Needed a quick lunch and stopped here. It's a hit or miss if you judge a place on decor but I liked it. The spring rolls were fresh, the vermicelli bowls were excellent and that fish sauce that came with it was oh so good. Also the service didn't suck. Can't wait to try the pho as that's what everyone else was eating. read more

Came here looking for something warm and soupy and this place was great for a quick bite. There was no wait when we arrived, the restaurant was super clean, and the service was really nice and friendly throughout our visit. My friends gave the pho around a 7.5-8/10 overall! The soup came out hot, which I really appreciated. The broth leaned a bit on the sweeter side, and the noodles were softer than I personally prefer (I usually like a chewier noodle texture), but it was still really comforting and satisfying. Overall, a solid spot if you're craving a cozy bowl of pho. read more

The quality of the vermicelli is refreshing and flavorful. The Pho was a bit bland with the broth compared to other places I've had Pho but still good! Came near opening time so the ambiance was quiet and peaceful and the atmosphere is so cute with all of the cherry blossom decor! Service was attentive and also took trash out the way! We would most likely return back to this place if we're ever in the area! read more

Pho 79 DC - Vietnamese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

It was our first time at this pho restaurant and let me tell you it's the prettiest girly we'll decorated place. From you outside on the front windows hangs two shaped flowered heart shape hanging decor, which the owner made by hand. There were a small waterfall at the corner of the room, another painting as you walk in to your left and the room was filled with pink and yellow fake cherry blossom plants. You walk in and is greeted by a beautiful painting from Vietnam. We know because we spoke with the owner. Their menu was super simple one sided for the food. The other side talks about their story and beverages. We ordered the combination pho, grilled Pork chops with rice and egg quiche and for appetizers we had their Vietnamese egg rolls. Their pho broth was very flavorful their tendon and tripe was soft. The porkchops were also flavorful. Their egg quiche was different they incorporated pig ears which I like but the first I seen in a Vietnamese restaurant. Our waiter was super nice, she had very well customer service. These three items are my go to's when I visit new Vietnamese restaurants. For our beverage we had Thai tea boba. The taste was like any other Thai tea boba. I'm definitely returning when I'm craving for pho. They had two restrooms for each gender however no baby changing diaper station read more

Pho 79 DC - Vietnamese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I'm not sure if we came in on an off day for the staff or if things just aren't the same anymore here. The broth in the pho was great, and the egg rolls and meatball were good but service was horrible. It was so bad that I feel like 3 stars is very generous for the overall experience, but hey it's the holidays. We took our own seats and grabbed menus from the counter because no staff was present when we came in, and it took an extremely long time for anyone to come to our table. She brought waters and we let her know we were ready to order, then she disappeared for another long spell before returning to take the order. The egg rolls came out without lettuce to wrap them (which is different from the past), and the pho came with no bean sprouts or side veggies. We asked for the bean sprouts 3 times and after a while finally got a plate with mint and a bunch of lettuce (half of which was comically dirty), but no bean sprouts or jalapenos. One table near us complained to the staff in Vietnamese about the service and ended up walking out (we were too hungry for that). The space itself is beautiful with nice murals and art on the walls, and the food is good enough to come back, but the service was so bad that I never will. read more

Nice place with good staff. Yummy pho, too! I look forward to going there again! Highly recommended

First time trying this spot and the food was delicious! We go seated right away and our server was very kind and considerate. She even pulled down the shades for us because we were seated in a sunnier spot :D The restaurant beautifully decorated with cherry blossoms and felt very vibrant.

Pho 79 DC - 18. Pho Ga - Vietnamese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

My husband and I saw a Facebook posting for Pho 79 DC, with their grand opening on Saturday! Pho 79 DC is located at Spring Mountain and Westwind Road. It's right next to the One Piece Café. There are plenty of parking spots available. We decided to stop in at Pho 79 DC as soon as it opened, around 11:00 A.M. There was only 2 other customers inside the restaurant. The restaurant is beautiful! There are plenty of tables inside the restaurant. It was open seating when we went in. We ended up sitting next to one of the windows at the restaurant. As we sat down, a team member brought over the menus and waters for us. Looking over the menu at Pho 79 DC, the restaurant specializes in Pho, grilled meat vermicelli, chicken, pork chops and much more! I haven't had a Pho in at least 6 months so I just had to order the #18 which was Pho Ga - Chicken. My husband ordered the Pho Chin Gan (Brisket). The team member assisting our table recommended the egg rolls too, so we ended up ordering the eggs rolls as well. While we waited for our meal, we had a chance to look at the restaurant. There is a large painting of Washington D.C. with the Cherry Blossoms. There was also another painting that was cherry blossomed theme as well! It was stunning! We didn't wait long for our order, less than 15 minutes for the Pho and egg rolls. My chicken pho was delicious! There was thinly shaved slices of chicken in the broth! I ended up eating the meat first! At the bottom of the pho was the noodles. I mixed it in the broth and ate most of it! It was quite filling! The egg rolls were outstanding! You could tell that they made them from scratch! The egg roll wrapper that was fried was put together with all of the different ingredients! It was super scrumptious! The restaurant is brand new! The team member assisting our table was friendly! He did mention to us it was his first day working at the restaurant when we asked where we needed to pay. We ended up just going to the register and paying for our meal. I'm sure as the restaurant is open for the next few weeks that some of the service processes will become smoother! We had a wonderful meal at Pho 79 DC. read more

Pho 79 DC - No. 1 rare steak pho lemon grass chicken with rice and egg roll Side of veggie egg roll - Vietnamese Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Stopped by as we were so hungry and couldn't fight Shanghai Plaza peeps for a parking spot so we came here. It happened to be the grand opening day & we got seated quickly. The service is okay, I asked for fish sauce and she gave us nuoc cham. I don't think she understood me but the owner was also very kind. The portions are typical but for $18 a bowl of a pho. The broth could use a bit more depth and salt in flavor. The rice plate was very delicious and standard. There wouldn't be any particular reason I'd pick this place over others though. Relatively costly for pho but food is consistent with Vietnamese flavors. Parking is easy but I don't find a rush to return over other pho restaurants in Chinatown. read more

Saw a post on Facebook about Pho 79 DC's grand opening and they were going to do a BOGO deal. Since Vietnamese food has gotten so pricey, I figured this would be a great time to get my Viet craving out of the way! Pho 79 DC, I believe, came from Washington DC. This might be their first Las Vegas location so welcome to the valley! Today was their grand opening and we arrived around 11AM. They are located in the same plaza as SK Seafood and took over the old Pho4Real location. We were seated right away and they weren't as busy as I anticipated. We were handed menus once we sat down and they told us that for grand opening, they had a 50% off pho special. The 50% off is for pho and pho only. Well, that's a bummer. Felt like their grand opening post and poster was misleading. Anyways, I decided to get a #8 pho tai bo vien which was a pho with rare steak and beef balls. My husband decided to get a #1 pho tai which was a pho with rare steak. We also decided to get their their 2pc cha gio aka eggroll. Unfortunately, I was not a huge fan of the broth. It was a bit on the bland side and lacking serious flavor. Not sure if they just didn't have time to shimmer the broth enough or maybe they just didn't put in enough beef for the flavor. You can taste the spices but just not the beefiness to it. There was a decent amount of meat. The noodles were a bit overcooked though. When I was moving the noodles around in my bowl, I noticed that it was easily broken. Usually when that happens, it means they cooked the noodles a tad too much. The egg rolls were pretty good though. Tasted like it was freshly fried but the flavor was a bit on the lighter end. It didn't come with pickled veggies, which was a bit odd. Overall, it was pretty average. I think there is better in the valley. The portion size was a bit small so at the regular price of $17 per bowl, I don't think it's worth it. I'm not sure if I would be back but I wish their business the best of luck! read more

Had to write a review for this place after my experience! I ordered via Grubhub & I got a call from the restaurant after my driver was already on the way. They notified me that they had mistakenly not sent my lemongrass chicken with the rest of my food. To my surprise they asked for my address & brought it to me themselves immediately. They were at my door in less than 20 minutes. I barely even got my first bite of pho in before they arrived with the missing dish!!! Outside of the outstanding customer service, the food itself was delicious. We got the Pho Tai, lemongrass chicken, & Thai tea. All of which were still hot and fresh upon arrival. Will be ordering again! read more

Went for lunch today for the Grand Opening of Pho79DC [5600 Spring Mtn Rd] in the former location of Pho 4Real. There is no atmosphere, the walls are bare, and at lunch time there were lots of empty tables and very few customers. I would not recommend this Vietnamese restaurant to anyone. There are several pho restaurants on Spring Mtn Rd, such as Pho #1, Pho #7, Pho #8 and even the former Pho 4Real had better food at lower prices, larger bowls of pho, and far more ingredients. The owner's Pho79 restaurants in Washington, DC and Garden Grove, CA may have earned 4 of 5 stars on Yelp, but not here in Las Vegas. I ordered the #16 Special Pho and 4 Shrimp Rolls. The pho was supposed to have 4 different kinds of beef, beef meatballs, and beef tendon. The bowl of pho I received had a few pieces of what appeared to be only one kind of beef [see photo], one meatball cut in half, and one thinly sliced piece of tendon about the size of a dime [it must have fallen n accidently]! There was no sliced scallion in the soup, the bean sprouts and 2 sprigs of mint leaves were not fresh, and there was no sliced lime. When I complained about the lack of meat and tendon, they brought a few very thinly sliced pieces of tendon! The broth was so-so with a taste of too much cinnamon. The "be careful hot" tea was lukewarm. The wrap of the shrimp rolls was like rubber and the ingredients were not what you would expect. Besides the thin slice of shrimp and noodles, there was shredded carrot and a thick center rib piece of romaine lettuce. read more
