    The boy and I went to a Vietnamese noodle bar on our recent trip to So Flo and it did NOT disappoint! First, it was recently renovated and the decor is SUPER cute! You know I love purple! Plus, the server was top notch! The pho was excellent! It was very cinnamon forward which was an interesting, but delish recipe! They take 28 hours to painstakingly make their broth fresh every single day! That hard work definitely pays off in the taste! The summer rolls were fresh, sized perfectly, and the perfect ratio of protein, veg, and noodles. And I always love a good peanut sauce! The steak noodle dish was AMAZING! Garlicky noods with filet... Nothing wrong with that! The taro boba and the Vietnamese coffee were both on point, too! 10/10 and I cannot wait to come back and try more!

    Remember coming here in the past when it was under a different name, but just never had the chance to come back. But was in the area looking for something to eat and remembered this place. I guess the new name came with the place looking a lot cleaner than what I remember. But as far as the food and the service all was pretty good. The chicken pho I had was decent it had a good amount of chicken. We also had the fish sauce wings which was different from what I typically had but still good nevertheless. The star of the meal was actually the watermelon smoothie. It wasn't too sweet but still had that watermelon flavor.

    Nice big place and looks like the traditional Vietnamese restaurants I would go to. I like Asian places that don't have too much decorations and has not exquisite. Nonetheless let's dive into the food. The pho broth was sooooo freaking good. Freaking creamed all over it..... but like as we all know, the noodles have to match the taste, and that's where it lacked. Damn I thought I found a gem, was too good to be true. That's the only reason it's getting a 4 instead of a 5. They did give a lot of noodles though, it's just sad it was the cheaper noodles. Darn darn darn. Well at least the waitress was awesome and deserved my tip! Thank you Cheyanne!

    This place is a true gem! We were visiting the area and among all the tourist traps and other bland places this place was such a refreshing restaurant . Clean interior and great service . But what really stood out was the authenticity of all the food and especially the seafood thats hiding at the back of the menu . We came near closing after a long day of work and the owner suggested to us his Singapore crab dish and boy was it a delight . Complex rich fragrant flavors that got my coworker and I so excited for our next visit back . The filet mignon and pho were delicious! But definitely definitely try the seafood , it's not your typical salty cajun flavors . It's authentic Vietnamese , rich complex flavors that will have you sweating and panting it's so good . Oh he also has a water tank with live fresh lobster as well, so that should tell you a lot already

    I have great memories coming to the restaurant it used to be, I'm happy they transitioned as the previous restaurant had lost quality, Pho Ben is a breath of fresh with their beautiful decor, great food and service

    Pho with eye round & beef meatballs. Delicious!

    This pho was just what I needed! Super flavorful broth, kind service, cute decor- great spot in Pines for some hot soup. Excited to try their other menu items as well. Thank you Pho Ben for a pleasant evening.

    This place is really good, the atmosphere is great and the # 12, Pho Ga (Chicken), was delicious. We drank the Thai Milk tea and it was tasty. They have Oat Milk as an alternative milk which is great to have options. The tea is freshly brewed. The waiters are attentive and friendly. The place looks clean and warm. I highly recommend this place!

    Pho was amazing. This was probably one of the best pho places I've ever been. Great atmosphere and great people. I go here every week.

We've…read morebeen fans of Pho Bar Vietnamese Kitchen for years, and this visit reminded us exactly why. Our server, Ni Ni, took wonderful care of us. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food came out quickly, and as always, it was absolutely delicious. This time, I ordered the Bún Đậu Mắm Tôm, and it was amazing. The tofu was perfectly crispy and crunchy on the outside while staying silky smooth on the inside. The portion is meant for two people, but it was so good I could have finished the entire platter by myself. Every bite was delicious. What impressed me the most was the level of customer service. I noticed a gentleman, who I believe was the manager, personally greeting guests at the door and shaking hands with customers he knew. He paid attention to every detail. Before my son had even put his empty water cup back on the table, he was already there refilling it. That level of attentiveness is rare and speaks volumes about how much they truly care about their guests. You can tell this restaurant focuses not only on serving great food but also on creating an outstanding dining experience. The place is really clean. That combination is what keeps us coming back. Whenever we're in Florida, Pho Bar Vietnamese Kitchen will always be worth the drive. Highly recommend!

I was not disappointed with the flavor and strange combination of fried gyoza. I would absolutely go back to try the tonkatsu version when im back in town and give the Ribeye topping a try instead of yoga. They also did proper tea by the pot. So 1 pot shared with the table which is always nice with the food before and after eating. No complaints and the waiter was patient and helpful with our daughter as well.

I was so excited to finally make a visit! Like others have said, Theres a garage or you can park on the street. It was $3.75ish/hr on the street. I'm not sure how much the garage was. We came right at opening and there was already people there! We took a Quick Look at the menu outside. It's at the bottom floor of the garage and the plaza looks like it's in a subway station. It reminded me of Japan! They chose a great spot. It was well thought out. The art, walls, plates were so aesthetic. Services was great as well! I had to start with the classic Japanese food. Although I did want to try everything. Started off with the JFC. It was perfect! Perfectly fried and had just enough sauce. The marinade was perfect. The crisp-perfect. I love that they used chicken thigh. It was a perfect start. It was nice because they waited for us to finish our appetizer before bringing out our entrees and that's never done at a lot of restaurants anymore. I'll start off with the disappointment. I ordered the tonkatsu for myself. I was shocked at how burnt it was. And how disappointed I was that they allowed it to be served to me. It was very dry on the inside. And the whole dish wasnt as piping hot as the karaage was. Kinda like it was sitting on the pass waiting for the ramen to be done maybe? I wouldn't have mind if it was lukewarm if it wasn't burnt. That really bothered me. Not something I expected so early on in the day. But I ate it. It was hard to chew because it was dry. This was my only complaint. I wouldn't suggest ordering this dish. I liked the details. How the cabbage and carrots were cut. I liked the Japanese rice too. I could tell it was Japanese rice. It reminded me of going to mt Fuji when we went to a restaurant there that had the mt Fuji rice. It was perfectly cooked. Not soggy or hard. My partner had the house ramen-ichimora. It. Was. The. Best. Ramen. I've. Had. In awhile. lol. It used to be Momosan but went down hill about 2 years ago. They ended up shutting down this year. Anyway, back to the ramen. It wasn't as thick as Momosan (I like thick broth). But I liked this one too! They are both different broths. The meats were very very tender. Noodles weren't Al dente. But overall loved it. You won't find another broth like that in florida. Another thing I'd like to mention was the plates with good portions. Which I haven't seen done in a loooong time. We were stuffed! Next time I'd like to try their sushi and hopefully bentos for lunch because I miss going to Japanese restaurants that have the bento boxes.
