It's hard to compare good viet food to CA, but I stopped by here for a banh mi on a whim and the bread wasn't fresh. Overall, it just tasted meh. Quick service though, and 12 bucks is quite expensive for a banh mi considering it's around $9 in most places.
Overall, 3.5/5 but will bump it to a 4/5 since the cafe is still new with lots of room for improvement. I got take out here (ordered via Toast Tab) for a couple friends and myself earlier this week. I also got boba while picking up the food since I have no self-control. BOBALICIOUS MILK TEA (MEDIUM) - 6.25 +0.75 for honey tapioca I got this with 25% sugar and very light ice. The tea flavor was strong, but too over-steeped. Not much milk flavor, so the ratio was off. The tapioca here was way too soft and mushy with no bouncy texture or any flavor. Overall, I wouldn't pay that much for the boba here and would get it elsewhere. PHO COMBINATION - 15.99 We got this to-go and enjoyed it 30 minutes after pick up and it was still good. I like the packaging they use here where they separated the meat + broth from the pho noodles to keep the noodles fresh. The broth was pretty flavorful and still enjoyable even though it was lukewarm. There was a good amount of meat in my portion, too. The interior is spacious and clean, and the service was nice. I'd come back for pho in the future if I'm craving it. Definitely will need to eat it at the cafe instead of getting it to-go.
first time here! i got the poke bowl ,ingredients were super fresh, thai iced tea not too sweet but still maintained its iconic flavor! service was timely and friendly with a quiet and inviting atmosphere! my mom and aunt got the pho beef and the pho chicken and said it was really good!
We were on the way home talking about getting coffee or boba tea when the yellow "Bobalicious Cafe" sign caught our attention. When asked, they said they it's been about 2 weeks since they opened. The cafe itself was pretty empty, especially for a Saturday afternoon. They had many drink options, but I was feeling very indecisive. We ended up ordering a large Vietnamese sea salt coffee and a regular size brown sugar milk tea with very little ice and sugar. We regretted not asking for less ice for the Vietnamese sea salt coffee; the brown sugar milk tea tasted okay. The prices were a little higher than what I'm used to seeing at my regular spots, but most likely because the area. There is paid parallel street parking available, first-come-first serve. The restaurant itself was very clean and the decoration was lovely, with the hats and orchid flowers. I love that they have the menu displayed behind the counter. I can't say that I would return only because I rarely come to this area.
Not worth the price in my opinion, if you can drive or can get to another pho location outside of Arlington I would go there instead. I think this is a convenient spot for the locals of Arlington but it isn't entirely good either. The Pho is fine, the beverages are overly sweet or not sweet at all depending on the adjustment of the sugar level. I would take the food to go as it isn't a large store. There is seating and outdoor seating, so you can eat here but big groups may struggle eating here. It's a cute store with hello kitty theme everywhere, and the service was nice too. It's unfortunate the food isn't entirely tasty nor are the drinks.
Easy, yummy, and friendly. They serve banh mi, tacos, poke bowls, and pho. In addition they have a wide range of teas and drinks. We ordered pho and a banh mi to go. Service was quick and nice. Food was delicious and well priced. Would come back again for an easy casual meal. Perfect for every day.
Having traveled a bit within Vietnam, there are dozens of variations of pho - not even mentioning Hanoi vs Saigon style, but in the DMV area I've found two styles of beef pho: create your own adventure and holy grail broths. The holy grail broths that don't require any seasoning or condiments are few and far between. The create your own adventure broths are everywhere. Unfortunately, Pho & Banh mi Eatery falls into latter category. I tried their combination beef pho and crispy roast pork banh mi. The brisket, eye round, and meatballs in the pho were tender and flavorful. The banh mi was excellent, with crispy pork with a nice glaze. My only complaint is that I wished the baguette was a bit crispier and had a better chew. The service was excellent and the dining room is clean and spacious. I look forward to coming back soon.
Stopped by for a quick pick me up and it was pretty good! There is also Vietnamese food that you can order as well. The employees were nice and the drink came out fast. I ordered the peach yogurt drink with aloe jelly with 50% sugar and it was refreshing, flavorful, and not too sweet. My other friends did not like their taro milk tea or blended coffee drink as much so I recommend getting a fruit one! They also have pretty decor on the wall and the place seemed clean.
Very nice eatery, although a bit on the pricey side for what it is in my opinion! I will take it as an occasional treat, though. I had the grilled chicken banh mi sandwich, plus a large Vietnamese iced-coffee with boba. In the main room, there is some cute decor, such as a mural painting on one of the walls and Vietnamese straw hats along a couple of the walls. The one and only suggestion I have is that "a lot" could be done to make the bathroom more interesting looking, because it is very bare and boring in my opinion. May I suggest maybe adding a cute Vietnamese-style mural painting in the bathroom like there is in the main room, maybe hang some lanterns from the ceiling, and put in a dimmer light? I think the bathroom could look so much more interesting with these changes! Maybe also play Vietnamese music? Otherwise, all else was great!
Food was nice and hot, and the spice level was on point. Also, there was easily enough for two meals.
I got the thai tea with boba and it was a pretty standard drink. I got the smallest size and it ended up being nearly $8. The drink was okay but was not worth the price paid. The service was pretty quick since I was the only person there and the ambiance inside was nice as well. There was a Sanrio theme going on.
This place is amazing--a true hidden gem! It's right in the heart of Arlington, easy to miss, but definitely worth stopping for. My friend and I went and ordered the shrimp pho, summer roll, egg roll, tuna poke bowl, and baked salmon teriyaki bowl. The portions were HUGE! We couldn't finish anything and went home with leftovers for dinner. It was the perfect spot for lunch--I even took calls and got some work done while eating. Super clean! It would be great for dinner too! The Sea Salt Coffee was incredible--rich, not too sweet, not too strong--just the perfect balance. I will definitely be back! The salmon was cooked to perfection, and best of all, the customer service was amazing. They are a small business that I truly hope grows very soon. Highly recommend!
Pho is delicious ... presentation eh I dunno felt like we were back in covid era with condiments in bags. Didn't get offered water...ordered coke n got styrofoam cup with ice...try ordering boba and 9 dollars didn't sit right with me...as far as service very attentive kind people ...
As someone who grew up in Southern California in a large Vietnamese community and has visited Vietnam many times, I can usually tell pretty quickly when a restaurant captures authentic Vietnamese flavors. I was happy to find that the pho here really delivered. I ordered the beef pho, and the broth was rich, flavorful, and tasted very close to what I grew up eating. You can tell that care went into developing the broth, and that was definitely the highlight of my meal. That said, I do have some constructive feedback. I ordered both the beef pho and the special combination bánh mì, and after tax and tip, my total came out to around $30. For that price, I expected larger portions. The pho itself was delicious, but the noodle portion felt quite small, and I left still feeling hungry. If the restaurant increased the amount of noodles, I think the pho would easily earn 5 stars from me. Unfortunately, the special combination bánh mì was disappointing. The bread was very hard, dry, and tasted stale rather than light and crispy. A good bánh mì should have a crusty exterior while still being soft and airy inside, but this one was difficult to eat, and I found myself dipping it into the pho broth just to soften it up. I also felt that the fillings could be improved. The pork skin was quite chewy, there wasn't enough chả lụa, and I would have loved to see more pâté, which is such an important component of a traditional đặc biệt bánh mì. The fillings overall felt a bit underwhelming compared to the authentic bánh mì I grew up with. Overall, I appreciate that this restaurant offers authentic Vietnamese flavors, especially in their pho. With some adjustments to portion sizes and fresher, higher-quality bread for the bánh mì, I think this place has the potential to be outstanding. Góp ý gửi đến chủ quán (tiếng Việt): Cảm ơn cô/chú đã mang hương vị Việt Nam đến khu vực này. Nước dùng phở rất ngon và đậm đà, gợi nhớ đến hương vị quê nhà. Cháu rất thích món phở của quán. Tuy nhiên, cháu xin góp ý một cách chân thành là phần bánh mì đặc biệt chưa được như mong đợi. Bánh mì hơi cứng và có cảm giác không còn tươi nên làm giảm trải nghiệm món ăn. Ngoài ra, phần da heo hơi dai, chả lụa hơi ít, và nếu có thêm pate thì bánh mì sẽ đậm đà và đúng vị truyền thống hơn. Phần bánh phở trong tô cũng hơi ít so với mức giá. Nếu quán có thể tăng thêm lượng bánh phở và cải thiện chất lượng cũng như độ tươi của bánh mì, cháu tin rằng quán sẽ nhận được nhiều đánh giá 5 sao hơn. Chúc quán ngày càng đông khách và thành công! read more

I absolutely love this place. The staff are friendly and the food is delicious. This evening I wanted a light dinner and Pho & Banh did not disappoint. I decided to try the Summer Rolls and Egg Rolls (not pictured) and both were on point on. The Summer Rolls were so refreshing and the egg rolls were just as tasty. The restaurant is really nice, with ample seating options for its size. I can't wait to return and try other options. read more

Went here on a Saturday for lunch and was pleased with the experience- the menu had a wide variety to choose from. The service was good although the food took a while to come out. The vibe of the restaurant was nice and the walls were accompanied with Hello Kitty decorations. Overall, a little pricy but worth it. read more
