3 for the food but the service was great. They're friendly,fast, and efficient. The pho broth wasnt very flavorful, it was lacking some ummmphh. The veggie broth is very good but it doesn't go with pho so maybe you could try it with a different type of noodles. The are very generous with their veggies and noodles.

This was my first experience with Pho, and I gotta say I would try it again, but it didn't "wow" me. I'm not sure what was so special about this place with all the reviews on it, and to be honest it was the only reason we went here was because there was so many reviews. The service was good, the food was good, but it just doesn't come across as 5 or 4 stars. read more

Authentic Vietnamese food and flavors. I ordered the rice with fried tofu and vegetables. It was good and flavorful but on the salty side. Serving size can be shared. Service was friendly and fast. Definitely worth coming back. read more

So this place is pretty good. The pho is offered in three sizes and the medium is equivalent to a large in a lot of places. The filet mignon pho is pretty good and the broth is on the light side. The rice noodle bowls are massive. Coffee is just average. The veggies that come with the pho are impressively fresh. Not bad at all. read more

I always feel a little hesitant to give a 3-star on a restaurant that has nearly 1000 reviews and boasts a 4.5, but I think I have to do it. NOTE: this is influenced by my particular order, which was the Do Bien with vegetable broth. It is probably my fault for having too high of standards for a dish that is $10.95, but I just found the seafood to be lower in quality. Beyond that slight disappointment, I enjoyed the vegetable broth tremendously, and liked that we were able to add our own fix-ins. Our server was helpful and attentive, and our meals were in front of us in a flash. I definitely want to give this place another shot, but will opt for a chicken pho this next round! read more

Delicious and fast my favorite Pho restaurant and we have tried quite a few.Steak PhoRare Steak

I've been waiting to try Pho 95 for quite some time as seventy-six percent of their reviewers swear by their authenticity and flavor. I finally was able to skip their lunch crowd by coming early as it is not unusual for me to have pho for breakfast or brunch. Located in a plaza along with other Vietnamese stores and eateries, their sizable red-colored interior is capable of carrying a crowd with booths arranged along the walls with a TV and fish tank in the back and rows of tables vertically arranged to complete the décor. Service was prompt and friendly. I asked for time to look through the menu and noticed they have one standard price that applies to their entire selections of pho: the small goes for $5.25, medium $6, and large $6.45. Extra meat items can be added for $1, and they also carry a mix of fresh fruit and powder boba smoothies for $3.59. On paper, I thought the selection, price and value were spot on. My favorite pho is Tai Gan Sach and I also ordered the fresh Jackfruit Smoothie with Boba to accompany the meal. My large bowl was eye popping humongous where I can literally put my entire face in it without touching the rim. The bowl was brimming with noodles, slices of steak that was disappointingly well done instead of rare, and layers of tripe at the top and strips of fatty tendon at the very bottom. The noodles appeared too soft and overcooked by the broth, and the uneven representation of beef slices would have been okay had it arrived red and rare at the center. I wished there could be more tripe and tendon, but to my delight the mix of basil, greens, sprouts, jalapeno and lime were plentiful and fresh. The reason that this place did not get a favorable rating from me was the overcooked noodles, the quality of the broth, and the smoothie. In addition to my description of the noodles, the broth had decent bone marrow flavor but missing was the dimensions derived from cloves, star anise, and other rich spices. The broth tasted cleaner than expected which thwarted the possibility of a greasy spoon. It was still a decent bowl of pho, but a more complicated and robust broth can be found elsewhere. The fresh fruit smoothie was too sweet. The added sugar and whip cream were unnecessary on top of fresh jackfruit, and the stiff and staled boba was not very good at all. Service was good until the lunch crowd started to appear so the restaurant became crazy busy as I was leaving. Overall, there was still enough to like about this place. For those wishing to maximize the experience, consider asking for the rare beef to come on the side, throw in a dollar for extra tendon or something other than their rare steak, and skip the drink in favor of an appetizer especially for those who likes to order a lot of food like me. I would be interested in coming back to give them another chance to impress. read more

There's that old school adage if you walk into a Chinese joint for example, and there's no Chinese in it, then walk the eff out. Walking into Pho 95 for the 1st time, I immediately noticed there were very few Viets (Asians) in the restaurant. Instead it was more of a mixed crowd of non-Asians in which one rather large group had a token Asian with them playing a supporting vs. lead role, and I'm assuming he was there to contribute to the "authentic" experience although I personally prefer to wear a coolie/conical hat instead to get into authentic character. Why the high ratings? Early on somebody must have deemed "this is the place" and it stuck, so now you have the sheep that say "I've never had much pho before, but if you say this is the best, than I guess it is, 5 stars!" which isn't ultimately a bad thing, but it's not a 5 star pho joint.... well to you it is, and that's fine, but you're throwing the rating off, yo! Now, if you've eaten your fair share of pho (Yelp Elite, Daniel L - read his review below because it reflects my thoughts) you'll know this is very average, but the meats I had were below average. I ended up wasting and throwing out most of the meat of my pho dac biet, so I have to say "you no so special" and "Pho 79 you mo special". The owner here deserves the success he's had cuz I remember he was "the man" at Pho 79 for over several years till he went off on his own, so regardless if you're not Viet or how little pho you've had in your lifetime, this place is definitely worth the visit cuz the owner has probably been holding it down since '95 cuz he's a straight out true pho OG. read more

Soup was ok- doesn't taste like it's made from beef bones. It tastes more like it's made from water and powder pho seasoning. Beef spring rolls and viet egg rolls were good. Not a fan of how they reuse the veggies they bring out to each table. With all of the options for pho in Denver, I don't think we'll go back. read more

I feel in many ways that beloved Pho 95 has been a victim of it's own success. As one of the 300+ reviewers, I feel somewhat responsible. The problem? There are now lines of Pho-loving folks queueing outside the door - even on weekdays. A great problem for Pho 95, but there are a couple of problems with this that have made for a not-so-awesome experience: 1. There is no waiting area. But even though there is no place to comfortably stand and wait, folks will crowd themselves in around the tables of people eating, or stand in the doorway letting in the cold air on winter days - making the entire dining room feel cramped and exposed. Nothing like freezing and having 20 people stare at you while you eat your Pho. 2. There is no waiting list. And due to human nature, this makes people do some unexpected things (see cramming the dining room door above). We've also seen - and had to participate in - a lot of arguments about who is next in line among the customers. This is stressful and is a primary reason why we don't go to Pho 95 as often as we used to. It's just not a friendly place anymore; Not because of the staff - but because of the patrons. A piece of notebook paper with a pen on a board next to the door would work wonders with this problem. Still tasty, and still my favorite Pho for my money, but I've been in search for a replacement until some of the overpopularity problems have worked themselves out. read more

Awesome staff, the food is bomb as hell, the prices are fantastic for the amount of food that you get, and they are super on top of everything there. I'm also celiac and i've never gotten sick here! read more

MY FAVORITE PHO PLACE. Note: To those who are vegetarian with gluten, soy and dairy allergies which in my experience equals Epicurean Hell, they have always been helpful with this. Enjoy. * There's a reason this place is always packed. The place is small, the service is good and the food even better. The broth here by comparison is well-balanced and more flavorful than other places; the portions, generous. The worst I've seen is it might take them a while to refill your water; otherwise, I have never actually had a bad experience here that was their fault... I feel I should reiterate this place is small though so don't come in large groups. You will not all be seated at the same time nor will you finish eating at the same time. Other people want to have their delicious pho too and your group is taking up all the space, talking and not eating. There are a million other (empty) pho places on Federal who would be glad to take your group of 20+ so next time, just, no. - - - Yes, I got stuck waiting because of this. Stop it. ;] My suggestion: Go wild and try the Pho Dac Biet which is actually pho with tripe, tendon and other interesting cuts you normally would never dream of eating but are delicious anyway. And then share an Avocado Boba which they make with real avocados. * About the food allergies note: I recently took a friend who has some food allergies and she raved about the experience after. She loooved their veggie pho (If needed, specify veggie broth.). The server who helped us out was not only patient with all of our ingredient questions (The pains of having food allergies. :[ ) but made sure to check and double-check what did and didn't have soy, gluten and dairy. This was not the first time either; just the most in-depth. So as awesome as this place was in my eyes before, when they catered to her needs and didn't make her feel like an alien for having food allergies, they just got major extra bonus points. read more

Yum, yum in my tum. I have an fever and the only cure is more Pho. Especially pho from Pho 95. The space is cozy and tight, and of course doesn't take reservation. But what true Pho spot doesn't. One thing is for sure, the wait is worth a big piping bowl of chicken pho. After a few minutes, we were instantly seated snuggly at the bar. Not only was the service super fast, the bar offers some pretty sweet deals on craft brews like Avery Brewing. A perfect combo with delicious pho. They aren't kidding about the sizes of these bowls. Thing the size of your face times 10. That's some serious soup. The prices are reasonable and everything moves pretty fast. Making it easy to stop in for a quick bite or stay, sit, and enjoy yourself for a while! read more

As of now, this is the best pho I've had! We passed many pho places on the way to this one (there was at least 2 or 3 on every block). I've never seen so many pho restaurants in one area. This area in Denver was kind of strange. I couldn't figure out if I was in Chinatown, or Latin America town? Or a combination of both perhaps? Interesting area nonetheless. Anyways,.. PHO! So many people, but enough seating. We only waited about 5 minutes for our table. Service was quick! Their menu has a good amount of items to choose from. I like how you can pick your size bowl: small, medium, or large. I thought the small was the perfect size (even for a starving person). I've seen others order the large, and they as might as well call that size JUMBO because it's that huge. I ordered a small combination pho. It's the first time I've seen a bowl of pho with more meat than rice noodles. I felt like they didn't give me enough rice noodles because I've never in my life have ever eaten all the rice noodles in a bowl of pho. Even though my bowl of pho lacked noodle quantity, it was delicious! The bowl was super savory and full of flavor. The combination pho came with steak, beef brisket, flank/tendon, and tripe. They might have overloaded my bowl with brisket, but I'm not complaining. It was great! Pho 95 might not be in the best area in Denver, but I'll definitely come back here just for pho! read more

Wow, it's about time Denver has produced a pho restaurant that is comparable to Pho Duy (the best Pho restaurant in Denver/Los Angeles). I was getting a little worried that Pho Duy would monopolize Denver! I went here a few weeks ago while I was in Denver, and immediately when I walked in it was a different atmosphere than Pho Duy, it was all Vietnamese costumers! That's got to tell you something. All the tables were taken up, but turnaround was very fast so we got seated very quickly. I ordered my usual Pho Tai Nam, medium. When it came out, I took my first sip and right off the bat I was in love. It tasted almost exactly like Pho Duy's broth (it's like the owner use to work at Pho Duy or something! *hint hint*)!!! Both beefs, the "tai" and the "nam" were spectacular! Not fatty like most restaurants are. They gave us tons of veggies, the way I like it! Overall, the pho there is AWESOME. I don't know just yet if I like it better than Pho Duy though, but it is very comparable. PS: For all you food newbies, please don't go to a place that specializes in a certain type of food and order something that they dont specialize in and judge them for it. It's like going into Pizza Hut and ordering a hamburger and saying,"This place sucks!". read more

Ok, so the 5 stars here are because I've been to a lot of Pho places in the greater Denver are and this was definitely the best. So yes, you should come here. Best pho is the filet mignon, but if I were you I would hold the onions because they were overpowering my food. On the other side, my favorite dish here was actually the rice noodles combination with everything. Next time I'll probably choose pork and egg rolls since I wasn't a fan of the beef taste. Chicken was good too. read more

People say Denver is a foodie town but I didn't really believe them. My experiences with almost restaurants I've been to in Denver were okay. Food were mediocre at best until we came here. After our cold hike at St. Mary's on our last day of the trip, we stopped here for a hot bowl of soup. I was actually surprised the pho was legit. I got seafood pho which is not a traditional order, but I was craving seafood since all of our other meals have a lot of meat. The hot soup warm us up and make us feel like we're back at home. I also really liked their fried egg rolls, which was great for a starter. It was a good end to our trip, and probably the only "hit" for us in this town. The service did not disappoint. We got the food fast. The staff was friendly. read more

Wow. Wowey wow wow to the wowth power! I've had plenty of Pho in my day but seriously, this was WELL worth it. When I got off the bus and started walking toward this amazing little spot, I smelled the noodley goodness in the air. Such a welcoming, familiar smell. I walk in and am immediately seated. Good thing I got there when I did because I took one of the last couple open tables. While waiting for the rest of my party, the waiter stopped by to warmly welcome me and ask if I was alright. Once we were ready to order, I got the veggie pho on beef broth. An excellent choice. We also ordered the Vietnamese egg rolls and I got a mango boba smoothie. The pho was so savory and delicious I couldn't stop eating it! They also gave us a mountain of lime, bean sprouts and fresh herbs to jazz it up to our liking. A few dots of cock sauce and hosin and I was on my way to food euphoria. There were plenty of veggies. I couldn't finish the small! But then again, I have never, ever once been able to finish a bowl of pho. The egg rolls were crisp and fresh. So freaking delicious, I would have been satisfied with those alone! And all the while our waiter would check in on us with his outgoing, gregarious personality. I wouldn't have it any other way. The sugary sweet mango shake was delicious and refreshing though I think that if they were to improve anywhere it would be with that. There's one place in Chinatown back home that just does it perfectly but they seriously lack what Pho 95 has all around. This place is definitely now a Denver mainstay for me. Can't wait to go back! read more

- Probably THE nicest, friendliest, most attentive staff ever. Everything is brought to you swiftly and with a cheery smile. - Like last time, the pho fixings were super fresh and piled high. I wish I knew where they get their limes cuz they are soooo unbelievably juicy. - I ordered a small steak, brisket and tendon. He had a small steak and brisket. I'm gonna have to go back to Pho Duy (my favorite) to compare, but I think Pho 95's broth might be better. It is just so incredibly rich, meaty, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. And the meat! SO much! One of their smalls leaves me completely stuffed. - I really enjoy trying new pho joints but 95 will definitely be my go-to place when I want a steaming bowl of pho godlyness. read more

Have you ever had one of those moments when you eat something and you say OMFG this is the greatest thing on earth. The pho broth at Pho 95 gave me that moment. I usually hate any pho outside of SGV, but this knocks any pho I have ever had out of the park. Normal viet restaurant set up. Service was friendly. Typical menu. Pho did take a little long to come out but it was worth the wait. Viet Coffee - $3.50 - Drip drip drip! Strong and woke me up! Cha Gio - $6.95 - Crispy and good meat filling. You get 3 egg rolls, cut in halves. Comes with lettuce wrap stuff and fish sauce. Goi Cuon Tom Thit - $3.95 - Normal spring roll but something about it made me not enjoy it. It was missing that crunch factor a spring roll needs. Peanut sauce was so so. Pho Dac Biet, medium - $8 - Like I said above, that broth was amazing. So clear and clean. Pure beef flavor. Add some of the beef oil inside and it will blow your mind. I usually do not drink much of the broth but I drank a bowls worth before I put my sauces inside. The bowl itself is your typical Dac Biet stuff. The noodle to meat ratio was crazy, 1:2. I ran out of noodles before meat, never happens! Pho will never be the same again!!! read more

Walking into Pho 95 is like walking through the door of the dark small hallway into Willy Wonka's chocolate factory...minus the Oompa Loompas. From the outside, Pho 95 looks drab and small (mind you, some of the best places look like this). Once you get inside, however, you are met with a wide open space and friendly faces. I am a Pho snob, so it takes a lot to impress me. This place does it. I love their broth and they always get my boba tea just right. So many places don't cook the boba long enough or they overdo it resulting in hard and crunchy little balls of nastiness. Not true with Pho 95. The boyfriend raves about the spring rolls which I also think are delicious. This place is perfect on a cold wintery night...or a hot summer day...or a crisp autumn evening...or a spring morning (they open WAY early...HELLOOOOO hangover curing gods!) read more

I finally got to try the Filet Mignon Pho and I was surprised how awesome it really was! I was in town for a conference and my group of 15 needed to grab dinner before it started. We called ahead to let them know of our large party and they were more than willing to accommodate us. The restaurant started to get busy, as it was Friday evening, so they had to split us into two tables which was completely fine. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and patient with us during our visit. The majority of our table ordered #21 Pho 95 Special aka the Filet Mignon Pho. I ordered a small and the rest ordered mediums. I was a bit skeptical about the concept because it seems like a waste of filet mignon but the price was right, so I went for it. The pho came out quickly and the portions were generous. The broth was clear and tasty; not too salty or sweet. The meat was deliciously sliced thin and oh so tender. There was also a ton of meat for all bowl sizes! My friend Henry actually ordered extra meat and it was a little too much. Our vegetarian friend ordered the 3P Vegetarian Pan Fried Noodles [Pho Ap Chao Chay] and ate everything on her large plate. It was well cooked and had a variety of ingredients. I was impressed with the quality of the food and the great customer service. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Denver! read more

Really glad to find easy parking despite the yelpers warning of the difficulty/limited space. My bf and I got there a little after 6pm on a Friday night. And the place wasn't crowded either. We ordered: Pho #7 Tai chin Rare steak, Well done brisket Compared to other pho places we've been to, we noticed that their broth was not rich enough and meat was not very tasty and was overall just overcooked. 2B Bun Heo Nuong Grilled Pork bowl Both of us really enjoy eating Buns. But this one just didn't cut it. The grilled pork here was very thin cuts of meat, which didn't bother me, but my bf liked thicker cuts. Cucumber was cut into 6 or so huge chunks instead of julienned thin as is the norm. But the carrots were julienned way too fine. The sauce became too salty for me after awhile. There were no pickled julienne radish as is the norm too. The portions were big and service was nothing to complain about. Basically, the food here did not live up to the yelp hype at all. read more
