Food: the BEST pho is here but it isn't what you'd typically order. Their special Spicy Dry Pho is out-of-this-world flavorful and fantastic. I ordered extra veggies and chicken. Amazing Service and Ambiance: courteous and efficient. Do not get deterred by the no frills environment. read more

We ordered takeout from Pho 96 for the first time yesterday and it was pretty tasty. My all time favorite pho to go back is to order the large rare steak pho with extra broth. I throw everything in my soup pot at home for a quick reheat. Doing it this way has 2 huge benefits. 1. The pho is hot and perfectly cooked when I sit down to eat 2. There is enough soup for my husband and I to have big bowls at dinner, with a toddler sized portion for our son and small bowls with lunch the next day. The pho was tasty but didn't come with as many yummy greenery to throw in as our normal place. I really like the greenery... the pork and shrimp spring rolls rocked and the peanut sauce they came with was straight up outstanding. Seriously. I could have just eaten that for dinner and been happy. The crab wontons were good but definitely could have used some hot, hot mustard to balance to out sweet sauce. read more

I stopped in and picked up an order of shrimp spring rolls, and was highly disappointed to see that there was only shredded lettuce and the shrimp inside the roll. Now, normally I've had spring rolls in the past they've had cilantro, mint leaves, bean, sprouts, cucumber, carrot., etc.. I won't return to this restaurant ever again. Obviously they skimp and their food which in my opinion is not going to be very tasty. I will definitely go elsewhere from now on. read more

Delicious pho! Delicious broth. Reasonable prices. Great parking. Friendly staff. Calm during lunch time during the weekdays. Overall good experience will be coming back for more during the winter. read more

The owner is terrible and rude. He walked away in the middle of us ordering because I couldn't remember the name of what I wanted. In multiple times his rudeness made our table uncomfortable. Then he overcharged us more and when we questioned about it he said condescendingly, "Do you want to pay more?". He was condescending and demonstrated he doesn't care about his customers. Will never be going there again. read more

Broth was salty. Water tastes old and like it's been sitting there for days every single time i've gone. ok customer service

Good food, fair pricing, and attentive service. Overall I enjoyed their combination pho. The broth was flavorful, lots of meat, and noodles cooked well. The medium was plenty for me. My partner ordered the beef stew with noodles, which was really good too. Only negative was the springs rolls. They were old and likely sitting in the kitchen all day. read more

I would give this place a 3.5 but I'll round up! Family wanted to come here after a long day at Colorado Springs. We wanted some Vietnamese food. It was late and this was one of the few places open late night. We all had varying opinions though. The pho was okay. it was not a rich broth is that is what you are looking for. My sister loved it because it is not fatty or rich. I prefer a richer more flavorful broth. My brother enjoyed his meal. We chose this place due to it not having any wait time since we were so tired and hungry! If we had the choice, I would probably try another place. It was not very busy here. But service was nice ! read more

Was craving some Asian food before our after a few days of ski resort burgers and chicken tenders and Costco pizzas. Glad to have found this gem on our way to the airport that's open at 9am!! Nothing like a nice steamy bowl of pho to satisfy our cravings and tide us through some flight delays. Also had their Vietnamese coffee, and husband had the grilled pork chop with broken rice (also amazing - and the portion is huge!) Only thing I might say stay away from is watermelon boba (but who other than my husband ever orders that I don't know so it's probably not relevant advice). read more

Best Pho in Denver. Must try the rare steak. Wish they still were open till 3am but 11pm is still nice.

Pho 96 is up there with Pho Duy as the best pho restaurant off of Federal. It certainly is the place be on Friday and Saturday nights after a long night of drinking as they're open until 3 am. The service here is surprisingly fast, but don't be surprised if there's a line at night. I personally think that they give the biggest portions of meat and noodles here. I never need to order extra rare steak like I do at some other restaurants. The bean sprouts, basil, jalapeños, and limes are always fresh. Sriracha and Hoison bottles always full. This is my go to spot when I'm in the Denver area. Give them a try whether you're looking for good pho or even looking for a hangover cure . read more

Pho 96 - Combination - Vietnamese Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Pho 96, this time around you get that 4 stars, well actually 3.5 stars coz you have that STEAM CHICKEN dish served with Ginger Sauce that I like. The Steamed Chicken that come close, quite similar to Hainanese Chicken Rice, that I missed so much.. *SIGH* YES making Steam Chicken Rice aka Hainanese Chicken Rice from SCRATCH is time-consuming. So to Pho 96 I went. I so wish that many more other Vietnamese establishments in town can provide this dish... *SIGH* Other than that, the normal items usually I get is the Grilled Beef Plate. For the Fried Chicken Wings, those are disappointing to me. I so wish they could at least marinate the Chicken Wings with some form of spices but it was just FRIED. *DOUBLE SIGH* Another disappointing beverage was the Boba Smoothie. Its too sweet for me, and the tapioca balls, aka boba sometimes are too tough and tasted "old"... But Pho 96 comes to my rescue just for those Steam Chicken aka 8C in their Menu, Steam Chicken served with Ginger Sauce. If anyone out there especially in Colorado Soil, can lead or show me any other establishments in town that offer Hainanese Chicken Rice or come close to it, please EMAIL me. Thank you. Pho 96 is always packed. The parking outside is always packed and limited. read more

I like how this place open later than most of the restaurants in Denver. With that being said, most places closes at 9pm. Now if you are late eater like I am, it's hard to find a place in the city that open especially a pho place. My friend and I came there around 9pm and we was very hungry. My friend order a combination rice plate. Her food was delicious except for the fried spring roll, I rather they use the egg roll wrapper than the spring roll. The meat was marinated with a nice sauce and it tasted very good when it is grill. I had the Pho Dac Biet. It was a small bowl but it was filled up with lots of meat, good portion of noodles and broth. It tasted very good and perfect when you add the hoison and siracha to it. I would come back to this place again with their service and good food. read more

It was late at night and my fiance and I were super hungry. We had landed at Denver airport at around 10:30 . We did not want to settle for fast food, which is normally the option that late at night. Luckily, because it was Friday night this place was open till 3 AM. There was a lot of road work going on in the roads so we got lost quite a bit, but we finally made it!!! We walked in this place to the aroma of great noodlesoup. The staffs were friendly, we were served quickly and and we thoroughly enjoyed the food. I can safely say , that night I had one of the best Pho i had had in a long long time . P.S. If you are a food enthusiast like me, you can follow me on insta @foodiieeclub read more

I stopped here for a early dinner before heading to the airport. The broth was good but on the light side of a bold beefy flavor, I like. I got the large bowl and the meat portion was the most of anywhere I have eaten. Dare I say, it was almost too much? Nah... I wish there was an option for a combination meatball and steak and/or brisket, I have seen in many other places, without having to add extra meet, al la cart. I got the beef b'anh mi as a starter. It was good with loaded meat. However the bread was a typical hoagie bun. I have only encountered were the bread was perfection. Overall, the pricing was very good for what I got. I saw the guy at the next table order the b'un and it looked amazing. Next time. read more

This place was ok. We ordered the Vietnamese egg roll and crab Rangoon. Both were good, and I did find the crab Rangoon seem to have more crab flavor that others I've had elsewhere. We also ordered the shrimp vermicelli and vegetable Pho with vegetable broth. The sides for the Pho we're sprouts, basil, and jalapeno which seem a bit minimum to me but was doable. I ended up using the whole try because I felt the veggies we're small that came in the Pho. Two medium broccoli pieces and three slivers of carrots .....come on! Also, what Really turned me off was that I ordered a large Pho, and when I went to take it home they put it in one small container. Basing off medium size bowls that I didn't have as much leftovers it had two full size containers from another restaurant. I also noticed when I got home that there was hardly any basil in it and I put the whole basil bunch in from the appetizers and the pho side!! See if they will let you pack your own ! read more

Best pho I've ever had - seriously. The broth is packed with flavor and makes this stand out above any other pho you can get in Denver. There is a vegan specific pho as well, which tasted too good to be true. Excellent service and a variety of Vietnamese drinks that are worth trying out if it's new to you. read more

Amazing food if you have a great attitude you get treated right in super good friends w he owner and very reasonable

If you order fried rice with shrimp, don't be surprised if the shrimp is not peeled. There's stupid then there's this place.

Good service and food was decent. Food was prepared properly and good at following covid rules I would give this a 3.5 but don't have that option. read more

Pho 96 - Vegetables and Tofu Soup with a long black hair - Vietnamese Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Picked up a sickly bae at the airport and needed a late night pho option this past Friday night. Found Pho 96 on Yelp and after checking out their 3 am close time, we made a beeline for two big bowls of hot soup. The good: + Open late! They close at 3 am on Friday and Saturday and 10 pm on every other day of the week. + Quick service. There was only about five minutes between when we ordered and our food being at the table. The bad: + Pho 96 felt like it needed a good cleaning. Maybe we caught them on a bad night and sure, it was after 10 pm on a Friday night, but it wasn't terribly busy and I was surprised at how dirty it felt in there. Messy, un-bussed tables, crumbs all over the floor, and sticky menus. I was seated with a direct view behind the host desk, which was really cluttered and needed to be tidied up. Our paper bags with chop sticks and spoons were weirdly wet--not a good look. + The pho was alright--not the best I've had in Denver, but got the job done. The accoutrements (basil, limes, jalapenos, and bean sprouts) were all a little wilty. We also ordered spring rolls that had super dry chicken in them. I've been to a handful of pho spots in the area (Pho Duy, Pho 555, Pho 79) and had a much better food/ambiance experience there. All in all, I'll be heading elsewhere next time I have a hankering. read more

Don't get the durian smoothie here, it's made from flavor powders, go a couple of blocks down to Can Tho Pho, they use real chunks of durian fruit which makes the smoothie 10 times better! But Pho 96 has real good quality meat when it comes to the rare and flank steaks in their beef noodle soup. Just the right tenderness and each piece has bits of fat attached, mmmmm! read more

Loved the guy in the front I'm assuming he was the owner very friendly guy. Food was great! Just what I was looking for. I am new to this type of cuisine and this has been by far the best o have tried. We will be back. Meat platter was good plenty of parking out front. I could care less about all the covid "orders" our gov gave small businesses but if that's of concern for u they are following the rules. Very clean. Loved the avacado boba! read more

I don't just like Pho, I LOOOOOVE PHO. Honestly, just hook me up to an IV of this brothy goodness-nectar-of-the-gods creation. I have a few other 5 stars in Denver, but Pho 96 is THE BEST in Denver. Broth is perfectly salted and the portions are phenomenal. For the cost, I don't think there's a better meal on earth than a large bowl of Pho 96. I'll have seconds, thank you. read more

Driving down Federal Blvd, you pass maybe 105 Pho restaurants all that look the exact same so I am convinced you really can't go wrong. But somehow my boyfriend picked this one. And we have actually been coming back/ ordering take out for several months now. We've always had good experiences. The servers are friendly and don't visually act too annoyed at my questions (I just ask a lot of questions and like trying new things haha). We have tried a lot of things on the menu and have always loved it. We have also found we can split a large Pho and maybe some dumplings and that is plenty for 2 people and under $20. Love this place and will always come back! read more

I came, I feasted, I satisfied my pho cravings. As a Vietnamese man with a VERY hard-to-beat reference point of grandma's pho, I have high standards. Let's see how 96 stood up to those standards. Pho review Broth: 4/5 - decently salty and rich oxtail broth that paired well with lime, hoisin, and chili. I didn't think it was rich enough, and the anise spice kick was not there for the balance though. Noodles: 5/5 - using the correct banh pho squared rice noodles. Meat: 5/5 - perfectly sliced rare beef steak + flank, very tender Vegetable plate 5/5 - perfectly fresh bean sprouts, thai basil, juicy limes. I ordered a medium and was satisfied with the quality for the price. But after having 555 across the street, I don't see myself choosing 96 over 555. read more

First time having pho in Denver... Big portion but the pho broth was pretty flavorless, I wonder if we were given the wrong broth, tasted like a clear salty chicken broth, like Swanson chicken stock. Noodles didn't seem hand made and over soaked and stuck together. cold raw steak came in a plastic bag, the soup was cold by delivery time which took about hour and half. Noodles were separated and stuck together. Had to heat everything up and try to season appropriately in microwave. Very mediocre pho. The Vietnamese egg rolls were good though. And the spicy sauce is very good. read more

So this was one of the few restaurants still opened after 9pm. Coming from Houston, I have to say i am very picky about my Viet food. However, this restaurant really delivered.

I've spent 3 months in Vietnam and this is the best pho I've ever had - no questions asked. It is an absolute must to get the vegetarian broth even if you are eating a pho with meat in it. Classic pho ambiance and I dig the prices and speedy service. This is my Sunday night tradition. read more

Pho 96 - Umm. Yum AF! Always go veggie broth! - Vietnamese Near Me - Denver, Colorado

While the broth was pretty decent, I did not feel safe eating at this place. It was crowded with people. No tables in between to space parties out. A guy came out from the kitchen to pick up dishes and ring up bills did not properly have his mask on. The mask was on his chin. Do not recommend this place. Sorry. read more

Fantastic! The place really doesn't seem like much, but check out their spicy veggie broth. FAR from basic, let me tell you! I loved the complex flavors in the veggie broth, and the fried onions added great texture. I'm not even vegetarian, and am crazy about their veggie broth. I had the #12 (rare steak, well done brisket, and tendon). Next time, I'll probably try the rare steak, tendon and tripe. The tofu spring rolls are also good. Service was excellent, too! Mmmmm read more

I wanted to try some other pho restaurants out since I moved here from CA. My friend recommended me to try this place out. We got seated pretty quickly and they took our order right away. I ordered a large bowl of the pho dac biet. I am by no means a pho snob, but I have been spoiled by some great pho shops in CA and Vietnam. My order came out and the broth looked clean, but the noodles were all clumped together. The broth, which is the most important thing was bland and did not have a lot of flavor to it. I had to put a lot of hoisin and fish sauce to add flavor to my broth. The meat portions were huge and tasted pretty good. Overall, the service was good and the pho was decent. read more

BUYER BEWARE - this place used to be my go-to for late night pho. I will NEVER step foot into this place ever again, and am urging everyone to avoid it. I went to pick up my order tonight, medium chicken pho with extra noodle. First problem: since when did this place charge so much? 13 dollars? Stupid. Second: they forgot my extra noodle. So I go back inside and ask the manager or owner for it and then arises third problem: this man was so rude! A manager should NEVER treat a customer with the type of attitude he had with me. Fourth: the amount of noodles and chicken I got was so small I literally couldn't believe it. The manager then acted like it was a huge favor he was doing to offer extra noodles. This place is a joke, the new owner /management is a joke. DO NOT GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR MONEY. read more

Pho 96 - Vietnamese Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I'd give 5 star rating, (food is what is giving this place a 4 star) but customer service is what I value a little more than the food... and this Pho 96 customer service is CRAP. The waiters are Rude to certain ppl I've noticed, Me and my boyfriend always come here (from far away too) and this passed Sunday, I went by myself and I was waiting for my coconut boba, and as I asked the waiter where is my boba because I was waiting for at least 15 minutes on it, I got the food before the drink... as I asked he rudely interrupted me and said "yeah, yeah, you want coconut boba, is coming okay!" That was the last visit for me. I shouldn't of tipped but that's the law now unfortunately. Only one kind waiter offered me refill on water too and he is the only reason why I tipped. The owner here doesn't value customer service seems like. Good food but Shitty service. read more
