    Beef pho options (2025)
    Michele L.

    Was coming to the Hartford area and searched on Yelp to see what's around here to eat. Literally this was the first result and with 4.8 stars and in need of a hot meal before a cold night of holiday activities , we decided to stop in. We had 6 of us. We got 2 orders of fresh rolls with extra dipping sauce, 3 Vietnamese iced coffees, 3 (22) grilled beef over vermicelli, 2 (5) pho dat biet, and one (17) grilled pork chop over rice, and a frozen avocado smoothie with brown sugar bobas. Food comes out very quickly. The rolls were good. Peanut dipping sauce was excellent. And to be honest we didn't need the extra sauces. They're served with a generous serving of it. I did use it on top of my grilled beef noodle bowl. Which was fantastic. Comes with a fried spring roll. Generous amount of beef. Big portion of salad too. Tried some of hubby's pork chop. In my opinion the pork chop was slightly better. But it's served uncut where the beef is sliced into strips. Pho bowls were on the smaller side compared to other places but honestly it's perfectly sized for one person. Everyone finished all of their food. We asked about desserts. Not sure how it is everyday but on that day they only had sesame balls and had already sold out. Everyone was full and happy with their meals so I would definitely recommend coming here

    #12 Pho (Rare beef and brisket)
    Rei P.

    We tried Pho & Grill after hearing the owners are related to the family behind our favorite pho spot, Pho 501 in East Hartford. We made the 40-minute drive with high expectations...and they totally delivered! The restaurant is modern and spacious with plenty of seating. We were greeted and seated right away, and the staff couldn't have been nicer. Super friendly, fast, and attentive from start to finish. The food was fantastic; from the crispy, flavorful deep-fried pork spring rolls, to the amazing #12 Pho with rich, clear broth and plenty of noodles and meat, to the fresh and tasty vermicelli with spring rolls, to the beef Banh Mi that was pure perfection. I also got a pineapple tea with clear pearls (they have tons of fun drink options!) and it totally hit the spot. Everything was delicious, portions were generous, and we left full and happy. Definitely worth the drive if you're craving authentic, fresh Vietnamese food. Pho & Grill is a must-try!

    Vermicelli Noodles with Grilled Chicken TOGO

    My favorite dinner spot. Consistent, delicious and great service. You cant go wrong with anything on the menu I love the chicken spring rolls, Pho is amazing as well as all the entrees I have tried.

    Finally Stopped in to see what Pho & Grill is all about per recommendation from my friend Dan who's family owns Pho 501. Pho & Grill is owned by relatives of Pho 501 which my family frequents weekly. Pho & Grill has a larger menu with many more Vietnamese options to choose from. We started off with the Grilled Beef rolls. These were go but a more similar version than ones I've tried at other places. They were simply stuff with vermicelli noodles, shredded lettuce and grilled beef. And on the side was a peanut sauce for dipping. They were good but I missed the herbs and extra vegetables like are in the ones we get at a different place. My hubby ordered the bahn me sandwich with grilled beef it was filled with pickled carrots and daikon radish. And on that crispy crusted Vietnamese baguette with a smear of butter. This was so good and the flavor is so fresh and bright. Perfect for a grab and go on a hot summer day!. I ordered the bun with grilled pork and egg roll. This is one of my favorite dishes it was chock full of vegetables and grilled pork slices and it had that nice vinegary/sweet fish sauce to pour over the top of it. The noodles were just a tad overcooked for me but it was still really enjoyable and I would definitely order again. My daughters split the Pho Tai. This had a very flavorful Rich beef broth with the chunks of raw flank then immediately cooked as it hit the hot broth. Pho Grill and Chill only seems to have one size of Pho to order and price depends on what protein you choose so it can be a little More pricey depending on what you choose my other Pho spot. I can't wait to go back and try more things and make sure you order some of the pork egg roll they are actually delicious We ended up ordering a side of them because my kids wanted to steal the ones out of my bun.

    12. Rare Flank Steak & Well Done Brisket
    Jessica P.

    So glad this was the first restaurant my daughter and I tried for the year. And 5 stars to boot. Can't believe it's taken this long to come visit, but better late than never! Another first for us was the beef spring rolls. Every time we've had Pho we've had the shrimp fresh rolls. And I have to say these are even better with some yummy homemade fish sauce. My daughter ordered the Pho Ga or chicken Pho and I had the brisket and flank steak pho for our mains. They were both outstanding but my daughter stole my beef Pho before I got the chance to spicify the broth so it was the clear winner. We will definitely be back to try more menu offerings as the depth of flavor was perfect. The service here also needs to be mentioned. It literally feels like coming home. Thank you Pho&Grill!

    We stopped here on the way to NJ for dinner. It was really packed in this small restaurant and they seem legit! Unfortunately the pho broth tasted a little on the milder/watered-down side, but it did taste authentic. We were hungry and it was enjoyable, I got the option with a mix of all the meat options and the tendon and brisket were my favorites.

    Short rib pho
    Mark L.

    Wow! Short rib pho. Omg. Where has this place been all my life. Absolutely fantastic. Flavor profile is incredible. Forget the size of the broth and the bowl they give you but this dish came with three monster short ribs on the bone. It was fantastic.

    Finally arrived at this fine establishment. I ordered the shrimp spring rolls & it was delicious . Now for the main event, I ordered the Pho Ga (chicken noodle soup). Unfortunately, I was underwhelmed due to the broth lacking flavor, but overall, we had a nice time & the staff was excellent...

    Chris N.

    Pho was absolutely amazing, rare steak add shrimp....very tasty. Spring roll / peanut sauce very fresh and tasty!

    Delish and cant wait to visit again. Beef spring rolls w/peanut sauce was everything.

    Pho & Grill has been on my radar for a while, but this was my first visit. I got my standard first visit order of Rare Steak Pho and fried egg rolls. Both were good, but didn't pop for me in the way that my fav of my fav local versions. The broth was a bit less flavorful than my fav spots. The egg rolls had good outer texture, but the composition and seasoning of the filling, was just pretty good. The dipping sauce could have been sweeter and more acidic as well. I have nearby options that I prefer for pho. If this is your closet good option, I would see going there. 3.5 Stars

    Pho Bo Vien
    M N.

    This place wasn't too bad. The biggest problem I had was online ordering and by the time I came to pick it up, they didn't know I had an order, so I had to reorder in person. The wait wasn't too bad though and the pho was decent. The soup was better than the banh mi I had, but if you want to try and make it better, no shame in ordering that double meat. The Thai Tea was good too. This is a small establishment so there isn't a huge parking lot, but a handful. The place is clean and smells like tasty broth.

    Fresh Shrimp Spring Rolls
    Shayla C.

    Great appetizers! We had the fried shrimp egg rolls and the fresh rolls with shrimp! We also had the grilled pork bah mi, yummo! The pho ga, was not our favorite but we appreciate the efforts. Probably won't get that again, but definitely everything else! The owners doubled as our servers and were pleasant! The restaurant was clean and put together. Stop in and give them a try if you're in the Cromwell area!

The restaurant has a cozy, peaceful atmosphere that immediately makes you feel comfortable. Around lunchtime there were only a couple of tables occupied, so it was quiet enough to relax and actually enjoy a conversation. The lighting was a little dim, which added to the cozy vibe. The woman helping us was incredibly friendly and provided excellent customer service from the moment we walked in. I ordered chicken soup dumplings, chicken broth ramen, Vietnamese beef pho, a passion fruit green tea with bubbles, and a coconut bubble milk tea. Everything was delicious, and honestly, I would order every single item again. The chicken soup dumplings were my favorite surprise. They were incredibly juicy. On my first bite, some of the broth squirted right out because I wasn't expecting that much flavor packed inside. Paired with the soy sauce and chili sauce, they were absolutely amazing. The chicken broth ramen was rich, comforting, and full of authentic flavor. It was so good that I ordered another bowl to take home for later. The Vietnamese beef pho was equally satisfying, with a flavorful broth that tasted like it had been simmering for hours. Both bubble teas were well-balanced and not overly sweet. The passion fruit green tea was especially refreshing and paired perfectly with the meal. The portions were generous, the flavors tasted authentic, and the overall experience reminded me why supporting local restaurants is so much better than grabbing fast food. You can taste the difference in the quality and care that goes into the food. I already know I'll be back. Next time, I have my eye on the steamed buns. If you're looking for a cozy lunch spot, a comforting bowl of ramen, or simply a quiet place to enjoy a great meal, Fujiya Ramen is definitely worth a visit.

The boneless spare ribs were big chunks and no sauce at all. The sesame chicken looked like it was battered shaved chicken. No chunks at all. The sauce was more like a general Tsos sauce rather than sesame. The lo mein was nothing but noodles, beef, and a few mushrooms and some broccoli. Everything had very little flavor.

There is plenty of room between the tables, so you really have a sense of privacy and are not crowded at all. I love Thai food, and I loved my lunch. I ordered a small Coconut Tom Yum soup ($6), and it was a10/10. It had the coconutty mildly spiced hot and sour flavor I love and was loaded with chicken, A big bowl of just that soup would have been enough for my munch any day of the week. I also ordered their Spicy Eggplant with Squid ($18) stir-fried with bamboo shoot, snow peas, string beans, carrots, bell peppers and basil leaves in spicy basil sauce. It was served with a side of white rice. It was a great example of why I love Thai food because the flavor was fantastic. The portion was big enough that we brought home half for another day. Now, as far as we experienced, the real clunker here was the service. Perfunctory, unsmiling, non-engaging, robotic are words that come to mind. What a shame, because just a little effort really would have made a big difference.
