    This was our first time here and it didn't disappoint. Service was fast and attentive and pho was delicious. They didn't skimp on meats in our pho. Would definitely be back when in the area

    Fresh Spring Rolls - Goi Cuon

    I've been coming to this location for years now. I can say with confidence that this never disappoints! Every time I visit this spot the customer service is always top tier. From them coming by to fill water or asking you would you like anything additional. From the feasible prices to the quality food they produce. I decided to come here on a Saturday while wrapping up doing my errands. One of the things I do like about this place is how great the pho noodle soup broth tastes. Even before I put any Sriracha, soy sauce in the bowl the taste is simply incredible. I will definitely be back soon to enjoy another delicious bowl of Pho.

    Not a bad spot for Vietnamese food! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Large casual restaurant with kind staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Got seated immediately for Sunday lunch. Got the the fresh spring rolls with grilled pork and it was pretty good but wished there was more than just meat, noodles, and lettuce. Some additional veggies like cucumber, mint, and carrot would have been nice. For mains, we ordered the special vermicelli - bun dac biet and a special pho - pho dac biet. I enjoyed all the toppings on my vermicelli - large portion and flavorful. The fish sauce could have been a little stronger though. My husband didn't love his pho but I thought it was fine! He said it wasn't as flavorful as other places but I thought it was fine - you could really taste the spices, but maybe less meaty flavor? Overall we were satisfied with our lunch and left full!

    Staff is super! I came here for dinner with my Husband and son. I accidentally left my purse and when I came back, staff was super courteous and had it in a safe storage area. We enjoyed our pho and spring rolls. I also tried the green tea smoothie with tapioca which was excellent. They opened since 1997 and not many business have lasted so long on Buford Highway!

    Hands down my FAVORITE pho place in Atlanta. I love to come here when I feel like I haven't eaten properly in a while. There are plenty of noodle soup dishes that come in big portions. Service is fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] All of their dishes are fragrant and fantastic.

    Pretty good Vietnamese restaurant if you need some 술국. Fast and good service, and the quality is not bad. We all ordered shrimp pho, two small and two medium. The spring rolls were okay too.

    Pho #1 with side of extra noodles
    Elizabeth J.

    A friend and I had dinner here on our way home from the airport. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It has a large brightly lit dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were immediately shown to a booth and given glasses of water and the very extensive menus. Besides many versions of pho, there were sections for noodle dishes, bahn mi, and other items, plus beverages. I ordered a noodle dishes with pork (#36) and my friend, who was trying pho for the first time had #1. We both ordered a frozen fruit tea, mine was honeydew with tapioca boba and hers was taro. We were both really pleased with the food. It was delicious. The portions were plentiful. The staff were very good: courteous, helpful, competent. At the end of the meal (just before the restaurant closed for the night) we paid our tab at the counter in the back of the room.

    For an appetizer we got the order of 3 spring rolls with shrimp. The bun with grilled pork and cha gio egg roll was delicious and very filling. I brought at least half home for later. My husband had the bahn mi dac biet. He said it was tasty, crunchy on the outside, soft on the interior. He brought half home for later. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining space is large.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was acceptable. The sriracha is not the original formula due to a feud with the pepper farmer and the manufacturer.

    One of my favorite pho places in the Atlanta area, decent prices and serving sizes with fast service! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is pretty calm the majority of the time I've been and very clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I usually get the pho, but at this time I decided to get the vermicelli noodles and fried shrimp rolls. Generous portion size and lots of protein in the dish. Definitely was enough to be full and have some leftovers. I'll come back again when I'm in the Doraville area!

    Pho tasted absolutely delicious and the staff working here are very nice. I love the beef because when they say it is brisket it is actually delicious fatty brisket and not dry meat! Food came out very fast. Definitely going back here to try everything else on the menu.

    3. Tai, Chin, Gau, Gan, and Sach
    Val N.

    I ordered the #3 small pho with Tai, Chin, Gau, Gan, and Sach and the broth was okay. It was not as rich as I'd hoped for. The restaurant offers a lot of options besides pho such as com tam, banh mi, bo kho, etc. The service was great and they were able to accommodate our large party of 13. The food also came out within minutes of ordering. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is a very authentic Vietnamese restaurant for Georgia; it seemed like I was eating pho back in my hometown (California).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Pho Bac is still my tried and true Viet place after sooo many years! There is free plentiful parking out front and service is always quick! I get the #1 Pho Dac Biet XL and it definitely fills me up! There is a great amount of meat and noodles and oh so good!

    Pho was good !! I ordered the Pho Dac Biet XL.. it was well proportioned. The service was fast, but after you get your food you do not see the waiters again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]A little crowded and loud, but you can get in there a feed your hunger.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    This is not what I asked for. Plus I ordered extra large and was requesting extra hoisin. Not enough

Also comes w/ the wrappers, full plate of herbs / carrots / cucumbers, and dipping sauces. Several of the cilantro pieces were mushy though. Otherwise I still think they have the best spring rolls and they're always fun to make. SALT & PEPPER TOFU - $16.95 So good - you definitely want to eat w/ the crispy seasoning b/c that's where all the magic is :) Nam Phuong is usu. my go-to spot for people who've never had Vietnamese food before b/c of the wide menu selection - but also one of my favorite spots period :)

There's no real ambiance to speak of--but when the food is this good, it truly doesn't matter. The value here is incredible. The portions are generous, the quality is consistently excellent, and the staff is friendly and efficient. Most importantly, the pho is as authentic as I've had anywhere. The depth of flavor in the broth, the freshness of the ingredients, and the balance of aromatics all hit exactly the right notes. My Vietnamese friends who eat here regularly have confirmed the same: this is the real deal. If you're looking for a place where the food speaks for itself--and speaks loudly--Pho Dai Loi 2 is it. This is the place. 5/5 no room for debate

It's right around the corner from Dunwoody/Chamblee, which is convenient for me at home. Whether it's for a pack of spring rolls or some sticky mung bean desserts, I'm never disappointed in what I pick up from Saigon Tofu. They more recently updated their signs and offer cleaner translations from Vietnamese, which is super helpful. I'm a big fan of their spring rolls and their vermicelli bowls, especially with the roasted pork - makes for a relatively light meal! My boyfriend loved the mochi like texture of the mung bean desserts, and we recently tried a slice of the cassava cake, which was delicious. The one thing I didn't love is their iced Vietnamese coffee. It was pre-batched and not freshly brewed, which was a bit disappointing. I wouldn't have minded waiting for a fresh cup. As I write this review, I'm not sure why I haven't been back in a while, although it's mostly due to me trying to eat out less in 2024/2025.

Long story short- maybe because we waited to eat it, but the bread was soggy ( probaby should not package in plastic ) and the ingredients - tofu were minimal. Veggies were not pickled. Sandwich was small in size too. Too many better banh mi places to dine in my opinion. This place seems to be popular based upon its longevity and not its quality.

The waitress was very sweet and checked in on us periodically and helped us fill out our sheet to place our order. We ordered a plethora of stuff such as crispy bulgogi bao buns, brushed sprouts, steamed dumplings, mango chicken and a noodle plate. Food didn't take long for it to come out on their little robot and staff helped put everything on the table. Everything smelled and looked amazing so it was tough to decide what to taste first!

This time I got the Grandma's BBQ Pork Noodles and the Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp Garlic Noodle. I was really excited to try both since they both sounded so good. Ultimately the Grandma's BBQ Pork Noodle was a little underwhelming - the noodles themselves weren't very flavorful, and the BBQ pork was on the drier side. The pork did have decent flavor, and all the toppings/side items (wontons, fried egg, bok choy) were great, but all in all fell a little short of my hopes. The Salted Egg Yolk Garlic Noodles had better flavor, but I could've used even more garlic and butter. The shrimp definitely carried the salted egg yolk flavor, but the fried batter was a bit soggy/soft in my opinion. I wished it was crisper. Service was a tad slow, but perhaps they're understaffed and/or it was busy that night.
