    I ordered a bunch of different items from here for an early lunch via Uber eats as I was staying at a hotel nearby for a work conference and have been feeling under the weather. I primarily wanted pho (for my cold) and saw online that this place has good reviews so went first with the Pho Dac Viet. I also ordered spring rolls, chicken wings (with fish sauce) and a condensed Vietnamese coffee. I was disappointed that I couldn't easily eat the pho since a plastic bowl doesn't come with the order (so I ate out of the broth plastic take away after adding all of the pho ingredients). I do feel like the pho was pretty decent though! The wings were ok. I've had better for sure. Vietnamese condensed milk coffee was excellent and as expected too though. I think I'd order from them again if ever in San Antonio!

    Every experience I have here is phenomenal. Down to the customer service, food, ambiance it's all there. Some of the best pho in SA. 10/10 ‍‍‍

    Great ambience and decorative specially those real mopped. Service fast and friendly. Pho was service very quickly and very hot soup which was great. Pricing is a bit higher for the portion served.

    Spring rolls
    Astelia B.

    If you want authentic you got it! The pho is so good! Portions are amazing. The spring rolls also so good. Would love to continue to go since it's so good, I'd like to try other dishes but the pho is so good that I can't help but order anything else. The staff is friendly and prompt. Love the idea that we are supporting our community with this establishment. You won't be disappointed in this place

    Came here because everyone at work talks about this place. Great prices and great quality food. They were literally so quick. Chill spot, great for a rainy day. Try the peach iced tea!

    The restaurant has a very large and varied menu. The service is attentive, and the portions are more than enough of food. The staff keeps the restaurant very clean and you can see the fresh seafood in the live tank. The prices are very reasonable for the amount of food you get. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures of everything we got. We love the spring rolls and vermicelli bowls. There are so many options to choose from on the menu. They have a constant take-out customer base which is a good sign. Great comfort food when it's cold outside.

    Brisket & filet mignon pho
    Cristina B.

    Very open and welcoming ambiance! We were seated/served very promptly! Their menu is pretty extensive and somewhat overwhelming but it made it easy that we all were set on ordering pho! My friend that was with us said their other (non-pho) menu options are really good too! Pricing is reasonable as well. I have to say this is my favorite pho place so far in SATX! The broth was so rich and flavorful! Highly recommend! I'll definitely be returning!

    Filet Mignon pho

    I love this place . I at least go twice a month , I have tried several pho places in San Antonio and no one else compares to the flavor and quality of the food . The staff is friendly and welcoming. I definitely recommend this gem

    Pho was good. No hoisin sauce or chili flakes provided. (I like mine really spicy). Broth was fresh and hot. Portion size was amazing and restaurant wasn't too busy so service was very fast.

    $16 for mediocre pho... hopefully that's enough said. Also, $6.50 for forgettable Vietnamese coffee.

    In San Antonio meeting my niece and her friends after a DCI competition. All three wanted something…read moredifferent than the usual food provided by them during the competition.... All wanted Pho. After reading different reviews and based on our location, we decided on Pho Kim Long. Little place right on the corner. When we walked in, place was busy... Noon on a Saturday but we were seated right away. The wait staff was super friendly. We ordered an order of Crab Ragoons and each of us ordered a bowl of Pho. The Crab Ragoons were very good sin size and portion of cream cheese to wrapper. Freshly fried.. Crispy on the outside and soft warm in the inside. I got the combination Pho with Brisket, Rare Steak and Meatballs. Good portion of each type of meat. Broth was hot and so very comforting. Great sense of complex of spices in the broth. Nice portion of the traditional garnishes that comes with Pho. All of us were able to equally share them. Prices very reasonable and all of us left with our tummies full. Not from the San Antonio area but if I was, I'll be making this a regularPhod spot!

    I am afraid that I must change my review of Pho Kim Long. I am sad to do so because this was one of…read moremy favorite local restaurants for over a decade. However, my most recent encounter has soured me completely, and I think I will never return. My favorite dish here was something that did not appear on the menu, Bo Tai Chanh salad. Even though it was not listed, they would whip it up at my request. It consists of beef cappaccio on an iceberg lettuce salad with Vietnamese vegetables and a fish sauce based dressing. Tonight they refused my order. What makes this refusal all the more frustrating is that Pho Bo Tai Chanh (the soup version) is listed on the menu and promoted as one of the favorite dishes. All that was needed, to meet my request, was to cut up half a head of lettuce and throw the non-liquid ingredients of the soup on top. Every restaurant should remember the customer is always right. Their only purpose is to meet their customers' requests to the best of their ability. I understand when a kitchen cannot meet requests with the ingredients or equipment they have. For example, I always call 24 hours ahead to order Peking Duck because the traditional methods require that amount of time to prepare the dish. Or I remember being refused a request to have my meat served rare when the restaurant had already cooked all its meat to medium rare using sous vide. I don't expect the kitchen to do the impossible. But every kitchen must be ready to meet special request whether health related like peanuts, shrimp, gluten, salt, carbohydrates, etc. or relate to tastes or ethics like vegetarian, vegans, seafood, etc. To fail one's customers is the first step to being one of the numerous restaurants to fail and become irrelevant. Any restaurant that refuses to meet reasonable requests fails the fundamental test for good service and does not deserve to be patronized. P.S. I end up going down the road to Yaya's Thai Restaurant (another local restaurant) to get something that met my tastes and preferences.

    Back in San Antonio and first stop, Tokyo Cowboy and dinner was served!…read moreAfter settling into our Airbnb, Tokyo Cowboy came up highly recommend. I'm glad they had room for us but, it's still safe to make reservations. We did not know they are a tapas style restaurant, but that didn't deter us. And we were pleasantly surprised at the size of their "tapas". What we ordered was enough for two people to share. Dumplings - 9/10 Gulf Shrimp & Noodles - 10/10 Blistered Green Beans - 10/10 Ramen - 9/10 Service was great. It's a casual atmosphere, but perfect for an intimate date night.

A bit messy to eat but I would get this again. Udon noodle with pork belly: noodles were kind of irregular in lengths. I really liked the sauce with it but it felt like it was missing something. Light dish. Tc double cheese burger: very strong flavors, somewhat sweet. Dense/heavy dish . Our waiter was quick and friendly. The restaurant lighting was dimmed and gave a more intimate /bar environment. I think the ac was broken here because it was very warm and they had fans going on around the room. I think this place would be good for someone who is prefers an American fusion cuisine that leans heavily on the western style dishes. The fusion elements were cute but I still left unsatisfied but still full. We did not park. We walked here right from the river walk. Not a bad place to go if you arrive in town after 9 pm.
