Takes a whole lot to write a bad review but wow.. the chicken here is really not good. It's dry and chewy. Hurt my tooth and had to spit it out a few times. The only good thing from dining here was our server, she was kind and attentive. She was blonde and very young, forgot her name, point is she was so sweet! Here's what also throws me off.. There's a host stand when you walk in the restaurant which makes absolutely no sense cause the girl that stands there tosses you the menus in such a sloppy way and tells you to seat yourself. Nothing wrong with seating yourself, but word it nicer and provide the menus in a different way. Or have the server provide the menus to the table once your guests have seated. read more

Tried Pho for the first time here and it was great! Superseded my expectations for what I thought it was going to be. We started with the egg rolls that came out very quick and a pot of the jasmine green tea which needed nothing but some honey and was absolutely perfect. My girlfriend had their chicken platter while I opted for a medium bowl of #31. None of the bowls come spicy at all as they have all you need in the table to put the spice to what you like. They give lime, bean sprouts, sliced jalapeños, and thai basil to add as you wish as well. Everything came out so quickly too! Although I know how to use chopsticks, multitasking with them and the spoon proved difficult at first but I was a pro by the bottom of the bowl. Such a delicious and satisfying meal as I was under the weather but definitely will return again! read more

I'm a little surprised by the high ratings of this place. Overall it was good. I felt very rushed when placing my order at the table. Food arrive in a flash. Payment was made directly at the register. I had a shrimp noodle bowl which I normally order from Miss Saigon. It was good but not as good in my opinion. read more

I go to FIU, so this girl that I had class with told me about this place right in front of FIU. I love trying food from different places so I had to come and try it for myself. I ordered #30 pho that brought the pho with different steak. I ordered the small which costs about $8 something and it's a huge portion. I don't know how people even eat the large ones. The food comes out quick and the place gets very packed at night. read more

MY FAVORITE PHO EVER. This place never disappoints. Every time I've been there, which is a lot, the food has always been solid. My only complaint is that the squid in the #36 pho tastes a little funky. Lately I've been telling them to sub that out & just add extra crab. read more

Had a vermicelli bowl and it was great! Reminded me of the ones I used to eat in Toronto. Costumer service by the young man that works the cashier was superb, made me and my girl feel very comfortable and welcomed. We'll definitely be back soon. read more

Yelped for a pho restaurant in Miami during our stay and came across Pho 79. Restaurant looked clean and spacious with friendly staff. Service was excellent! As soon as we sat down water was brought to our table. For appetizer, we ordered spring rolls which came out right away. I was just a little disappointed with the sauce because it was a little bit too salty and I could taste fish sauce was a little in the heavy side. All of us ordered the special beef pho which came in 3 sizes. We ordered 2 medium and 1 large. The bowls did not disappoint!!! There was so much meat in each bowl that we could not finish it. Definitely go for the smaller size if you don't have a big stomach. Taste of the soup was very good also. Servers were always attentive and when we could not finish our spring roll, server handed us a container with the sauce already included. Would definitely come back here and recommend to family when visiting Miami. read more

I was so excited walking into the restaurant. I actually deviated from where I was going when I saw the sign. I ordered number 35, chicken pho and Thai bubble tea. The pho was excellent in size and price, but the taste was nonexistent. The broth felt like it was just boiled water. I added and added toppings and sauces to see if it'll make up for it but to no avail . You can't replace good broth. Again portions were great, but no flavor. The Thai tea was average... no condense milk, however the bubba was great. Perfectly cooked tapioca pearls. I wish I could say I would return but it is unlikely. read more

I can't believe it took me this long to visit this restaurant. It's been on my list for quite some time and I finally had a chance to visit and I was extremely pleased. You sit down and they come and take your order. The service is extremely fast here which is always great and the options are extensive. My only concern was that upon placing my ordered both my friend and I ordered bubble tea and it was never brought, in fact, when we went to go pay, the cashier told us it wasn't put in. Overall, great place and good prices. read more

I can honestly say I never had pho till I came here and I'm so happy I did. I had a meat pho and was so impressed with the taste I Can back the next week for more. I really like that they give you the herbs try in the pho and all the different spices in the table are so tasty. I can't wait to go back read more

They wash their pots outside on the ground in the same spot where they dump their mop water! I have a video of an employee washing a bowl out back but yelp doesn't have an option to post a video. By dinner time, 2 big pots were gone. Hope you guys enjoyed your stomach virus dinner of fly flavored pho! read more

Walked in today. Was offered a booth! Sat down and ordered large beef pho with rare steak and brisket! Extra beef. Extra onions. I turned my head to look at my phone. Came out 2-3 minutes later. Fast as hell! Got a plate of fresh bean sprouts, basil and lime. The soup with piping HOT. Generous portions. Great flavor and was sooooo good! I tore that shit up! I'm stuffed. Will visit again when I'm in Miami. Fuck around and go back later for dinner. LoL. It was that good! read more

Horrible service I drove about 40 mins away to sit down and have dinner with my boyfriend, I arrived at 8:58 pm they close at 9:30 pm 30mins is more then enough time to eat a soup, the person who was taking my order said I can't sit down to eat my food, due to them already closing, but they close at 9:30 I was very disappointed. I came before multiple times at 9pm and I have always gotten seated. I have recommended this place to multiple friends due to the food being good, due to the customer service being bad I will no longer come here!! AND SO OVER PRICE read more

Definitely the best pho place in Miami! I am so upset it took me so long to find this place! I got the Thai iced tea which was so good I had to get one to go as well! The shrimp spring rolls were good but not the best so I will probably pass on them next time- for me they had a little too many noodles (but that's just personal preference). The pho was really the star of the show! I ordered the medium bowl which was around $11. Honestly for lunch I would have probably been fine with a small but I got excited. I also ordered a small bowl with meatballs and beef tendons . I love the beef tendon and I would def recommend to get an additional order of them it's worth the additional 4$. The broth for the pho was very good and they defiantly give a lot of meat in the bowl. I'll absolutely be coming back! read more

I went here for lunch with a few coworkers. I got a small pho #30 which was with beef tenderloins. It was such a large portion that I had to take some to-go. I love the fact that you have the option to add spices to it so that you can make it as spicy as you want. I add salt, siracha, jalapeños, and squeezed a little lime in it as well. It was definitely what I expected and then some. read more

Pho 79 - #30 - Vietnamese Near Me - Miami, Florida

I'm biased as I am Vietnamese and am very used to authentic home cooking. I rarely (if ever) go out to eat Vietnamese food. I took my co-workers here because they have been bugging me for quite some time to check out this place. It's conveniently located across from FIU and attracts a lot of students. We went on a Thursday evening and there was a line of people waiting for tables. It's a super casual place with subpar, but quick service. I knew my coworkers would all order Pho, however, I had just eaten some of my mom's pho the week before and wanted banh xeo (Vietnamese crepe) but they didn't even have it on the menu. I was disappointed as this was the first Viet restaurant I've been to without this dish on their menu. I opted for pho and knew that it would taste mediocre compared to home and it is your average pho. My coworkers, on the other hand, loved it! They were complimenting on the flavor of the broth and how fresh the ingredients are. They also all mentioned that they would definitely come back. Again, I am biased (nothing like mama's home cooking) so if you're reading this and really want to give this place a try- you should. read more

Service is kind of weird but the Pho is amazing. Always hits the spot. I get a 32 aith rare meat on the side and an order of meatballs. The egg rolls are good 8/10 times sometimes they are a bit over done read more

I feel like it would have been a place I loved, I stumbled upon this place on yelp and decided to give it a try. I ordered the bubble tea lychee, it was great. However when I asked the waitress first about what kind of tea they used in the bubble tea she looked at me like I was crazy. Then I ordered the pho and I just felt so uncomfortable with her first reaction to my question I didn't ask anything. I should have because I've never had Vietnamese food, and this plate is like a build your own bowl you add everything including toppings and sauces which are on the table. The food was fresh, the service could use some help. Do your homework before coming in. read more

Pho 79 is as authentic as it gets! To begin with the restaurant is impeccably clean. The owners dedicate time to ensure not only a delicious experience but a clean one too! We started with the spring roll app. Probably the best I've had. They were fresh and so crispy! For our main course I had number 23 and my friend ordered their most famous pho number 30. Both dishes were packed with flavor! This spot is a hidden gem and recommend it 100% read more

Don't get it. Except for the fresh veggies everything else is average. Not sure where the chicken comes from as it always is rubbery and tasteless Place is always full and lots of people love it but I just don't get it. read more

Yummy what a delicious treat. I'm glad I listened to my friends. This is a great find. Pho 79 has a great menu, lots of vegan, vegetarian, and meat eater options. Look I gotta be honest with you, they did something to Tofu that made it more addictive than crack. Get their Grilled Tofu appetizer. Goodness this is delicious!!! Their Pho is spot on. Comes with gratuitous amounts of meat, noodles and veggies. I got the medium and I could barely finish it. It was to die for. The overall food was epic! Service needs improvement, not enough to not keep me from coming back. I'll be coming here more regularly. read more

Sad to say but my experience wasn't really good here :( I had so many flies all around my table and on my food to the point where they even got into my pho, and it was just a very uncomfortable thing to deal with. The pho was okay too, although I also had other entrees such as the Korean bbq but it was all just fat to the point where I couldn't really eat anything, although the other ones were pretty good! Service was really good too, and I got the pho replaced and had it taken out of the bill, but it just kind of upsets me that I couldn't have a calm experience here eating without flies getting on my food and circling around the whole time where I had to try to swat them for more time than eating my food. Prices are reasonable too, which is really nice. Overall, probably would look for another place with a better ambience :,( read more

This is my first ever Yelp review. This place made me decide to be a good contributing Yelper. I'm from California and I've been to all sorts of Pho places. The good, the bad the best (Pho Kim Long in Milpitas, CA). I'd say I'm both a Pho expert and connoisseur. Pro: Pho is actually pretty good, broth was flavorfull. I'd come back to this place. Con: $2 for an extra empty bowl and $1 for some limes. Extra limes I get, but $2 of each empty bowl? kinda weird to me. Idk if this is common for Floridians, but in all my ventures at other Pho places nowhere else has ever charged for "empty bowls". In the end we shared and ate from the same bowl. Good food, cheap owner? Food 4/5 Service 2/5 read more

I've only had Pho twice and my first time I was not that impressed. I decided to try it again at a new place and it completely changed my mind! We were quickly seated and served within minutes. The servers were friendly and despite how crowded the restaurant was, our food arrived very quickly. We started with the egg rolls which came with a delicious sauce, and the Pho tasted amazing! We also had some boba tea which was a little pricey but worth it. Would definitely return to this place for Pho. read more

We just went for a bowl a pho and we left with a full tummy. While I wasn't too appetizer by many of their options, they did have one vegan option that was very good. I added just enough Siracusa and soy and it was the perfect flavor. Not to mention it was cheap for the portion sizes and such quick service. I would give a five but their options could use some expanding. Otherwise great experience! read more

Excellent service and food good as I expected it! I had the chicken pho with shrimp rolls and both spot on! Will be back for sure.

For Vietnamese good the short ribs and chicken dish were delicious. My daughter had the Beef pho because it was cold and she wanted something hot to hit the spot she loved that she could add sprouts and greens! We also loved the mango bubble tea!! read more

This place is a hidden GEM by FIU, and I look forward to trying the location in Pinecrest by US1 very soon. Pho (Pronounced as "FUH") is something that destroys your hunger, cures a cold, enlightens the soul, and produces bliss. These soups are for everyone, even if you're not a soup person. This place sits you down in seconds, serves your steaming plates of Pho in seconds, and you inhale the bowl of soup, in seconds. While the décor is minimal, you come here for the Pho, and you always leave satisfied. I recently discovered this place, and I come here at least every other week, sometimes weekly, and it's always been a hit with me, and every individual I've brought there. Eventually I will try the other dishes they offer, but It's hard to get something else when you know the Pho is too good to pass up. read more

I have been a repeat customer of this place for a while now. I love this place, it's clean, it's has a simple straight forward menu with focus on pho and it's also got great prices. Every table has various sauces and spices for adding to your pho and it's fun to try to find your personal best combination. I really want to give them a 4 star rating, however, I find that there is some inconsistency in the kitchen, some days my pho broth is better than others. I've tried to figure out why this is but I'm honestly unsure, perhaps different chefs on different days? My other note is about the service. Yes you will be asked to sit at a table and someone will come take your order, but please do not mistake this for standard service. The concept here is like a walk up counter, except they take your order at the table. Please make sure you order everything you want at the beginning because getting someone to add something later on, or even getting extra napkins later on will prove next to impossible. Even when you do manage to get someone's attention for extra napkins, you might not get them. And last but certainly not least, make sure you take it easy on the spicy toppings because you might potentially add too much and ruin your own soup. And the coco whip is delicious. Have a happy pho experience! Ok so I'm back to update my rating to a 4. They deserve it. read more

Amazing! Have the spring rolls. Honestly, anything from here is good. Plus the service is fast and friendly. Love this place!
