I ordered for take out their Bahn Mee sandwich. Check out the picture with the pork meat falling out. The portions are very generous! I love the heat from the jalapeno peppers and the shredded vegetables they put on the sandwiches. When I normally dine in I also like their Vietnamese coffee. The sandwiches are delicious, both for eat in or take out. My go to place for Vietnamese food. read more

Pho Dakao - Kennesaw - Pork Bánh Mì - Vietnamese Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

You know I've never actually eaten at the restaurant. I always order on DoorDash. I absolutely love ordering for a restaurants for delivery and it just tastes just as good. I can imagine the food being 10 times better sitting in and eating. My favorite thing to get is the pork rice plate or the beef rice plate depending on my mood it has so much flavor and I'm obsessed with how juicy the meat is! I'm only giving this a 3 for now because I haven't eaten inside the restaurant. I did also order their Banh mi and it was a little dry. I think they use the same meat for the rice plate so I was a little disappointed that it was so dry. The tea was bitter & bland. I want my tea to taste sweet & rich. I should also probably try the pho since it's in their name but their rice plate plates definitely have won me over. read more

Pho Dakao - Kennesaw - Combo Phở (P10) - Vietnamese Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

I guess I didn't post a review after my first visit, but this review will basically be the same. At least they're consistent. I was out running errands and was close by, so I stopped in to grab some Pho. I ordered the summer rolls and the Pho Dac Biet. The summer rolls are filled pretty decently. The peanut sauce was very thick and sweet. The pho was good. The portion of meat seems to be a bit less compared to when I get pho off Buford or in Duluth. It's fine when I just want to take a short 10 min drive to satisfy my craving. There's nothing that really stands out about this place. It's not bad and it's not great. read more

Packaging and the visual was great! The experience went downhill after that. The Pho and rice was room temp. The taste was also mid. So disappointed. I was wanting the rich complex bone broth flavor and I got boxed super watered down chicken broth flavor. Won't order again. read more

Don't think you'll go wrong here with that emergency pho break hits. Noodle was a bit mushy but definitely with a pass. Meat were well cooked, not too chewy and brisket was melting (the Southern influence?) Can't taste too much of nuocmam, possibly serving to the homogeneous crowds in the town. Def can use extra greens, guess you gotta ask as another reviewer mentioned. All good. read more

Im so done with this place. I don't care if it's good- there is plenty of other places to eat. It's retarded to charge extra for a TO GO order. $21.75 for one order is enough but to charge an extra $1 to get it to go and .75 for a couple packets of HOISEN sauce? Corny. I wont come back. Last time I was here I got a tie tea to go and they charged extra for that. WTH I'M PRETTY SURE IF MORE PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT THIS, THEY WOULD THINK THAT WAS WEIRD AS WELL. You lost a local customer but i doubt you care. - not only that as I sat here waiting for my food to cook in the back the cook was texting on his phone and not wearing any gloves as he handled all the veggies and the food in the back that's freaking gross. If I get food poisoning, I'll know why. read more

I want to take my nutrition up a notch, which can be a challenge while on the road. I was headed to one of the national chain restaurants, when I noticed Pho Dakao. We were warmly welcomed and ushered to our table. Two selections jumped off of the menu and grabbed my attention. With the help of our charming waitress my order of Veggie Soup and Com Chay was off to the chef. While waiting we warmed to the natural wood tables, cozy chairs and artwork on the walls. It seems like in no time at all our food was delivered hot, colorful and fragrant. I did not love the 90's music. I wish restaurants with ethnic cuisine would stick with the commensurate music. Cuisine and music are best paired together. We did our meal and left absolutely satisfied. Stop by and level up your nutrition with great Vietnamese food at Pho Dakao! read more

First of all the server brought my husband's pho to the table 20 minutes before my food was ready. He never asked if we needed more beverages or if the food was good. Disappointed to say the least. Will never go back read more

This place is really my comfort place. The food is always so delicious, everything that I want and more. You go in and first thing you're hit with is the most delicious smell.

Anytime I'm craving something super light fresh and comforting best believe I'm coming here. read more

Pho Dakao - Kennesaw - A4. Appetizer Combo - Vietnamese Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

I think the best thing this restaurant has going for it is its location -- steps away from Marshall's and TJ's. The pho, not so much. First they bring out a cold bowl covered in Saran Wrap with a small amount of sprouts, jalapenos and greens to add to the pho. "Is that all we get?" I asked the server, which prompted her to bring out another. Then came the soup. Virtually tasteless. What saved it were the limes. I squirted in as many as I could get my hands on and doctored it up with the shredded greens and sprouts. The shrimp in my pho tom were rubbery and did nothing to enhance the soup's flavor. I hate to denigrate a relatively new business, but with all the options in the neighborhood, this is a one-shot deal for me. And btw, it's not cheap. read more

I love this place a lot!!!, I like the art style of the Vietnam women and the guitar paintings since I played guitar I felt at home. the food prices are reasonable prices for such a large rice bowl at 14$ (I think) it was amazing and I love the large food quantities the music playlists consist of (the Mariahs and laufey) which are very good artists the service was amazing the waitress would check up on us every once in a while and when i was out of water she came and refilled my drink within seconds I love this place and 100% recommend read more

There's only few in ATL Metro that are considerately tasty when it comes to Pho and its broth and this place is one of them! I have to admit, it's a bit pricy but so like the others. I got to go order from here, but I really enjoyed everything here including their Thai Tea. I've had tea that are too sweet in the area, but this one is just right. I'm rating 4 star because they have forgotten the sauces and it didn't feel complete. read more

Customer service was awesome. Can't remember her name, she was college kid working during the summer. I do remember that. Very polite and was spot on with drinks and food. Food, we had beef pho, meatball pho, spring rolls and bahn mi. Soup was good. Not as savory as I get back in Ca, but good. Bahn Mi was good, even better later when I ate the left overs. Spring roll was the only sub par dish. Very tight roll (good) but it seemed to be a bit dry. Peanut sauce was a little too sweet for me, but was flavor full. Overall, would eat there again because customer service great and need to try the other items on the menu. read more

I'm Vietnamese and I'm used to my moms homemade pho. And this is the one. Hope that helps! Lol jk But seriously the broth is soooo savory, it had to have been brewing for over a day! That goes for both CHICKEN and BEEF pho broths! And yes, they give you enough veggies for your soup. I feel like most places skimp out because some people just waste them, which is a shame. Oh and SATE! That is all. No need to fight your way into downtown Atlanta. read more

Pho Dakao - Kennesaw - P10. Combo Pho - Vietnamese Near Me - Kennesaw, Georgia

In my opinion the food is always amazing. Great appetizers and choices. This is my go to spot when I want to eat out!

This has quickly become one of my go to Vietnamese places. The pho comes in 3 sizes. It also comes in a few varieties. Beef, chicken, and vegetarian. The standard sprouts, lime and jalapeños comes with your soup. For a small up charge you can get egg noodles instead of the rice noodles. That would be my recommendation. I had the shrimp in chicken broth with egg noodles. The broth was delicious and served piping hot. On my visits I've ordered the spring rolls. They are really fresh although much smaller than I am used to. The sauce is fantastic. Although I didn't take a picture of it I also split a bah mi. The has been the least successful choice in my opinion. The chicken was so dry although the bread was really good. I would not order it again. The fried rice here is HUGE. It is flavorful and definitely worth trying. I was a little disappointed that they don't make a spicy version. Although they have chili oil and sriracha on the table it just hits different when it's cooked in. If you like fried rice then you should definitely try it here. The service is friendly and efficient. Highly recommended read more

Feels like authentic pho! Fast and efficient service, really makes you feel warm and cozy.

Hard to find a good pho place around where I live. My friend and I decided on Pho after our hike, and boy did it hit the spot!! We started with the spring rolls which was served with peanut dipping sauce. The sauce isn't too sweet and it paired perfectly. I had the combo food and my friend had the shrimp pho. They gave us plenty of bean sprouts and basil to share (love bean sprouts!!). The soup is flavorful and they do give a decent amount of meat and noodles so you're not just drinking soup. We were starving, but figure the small would be enough and it was!! They do close for a break between 3pm - 5pm. Which they start to turn everyone away about 30-40mins before 3pm. I think that if you're going to close at 3, then I understand maybe 15mins before, but 30-40mins is a bit extreme. read more

Best Pho in town, for sure! I get a small steak pho with extra noodle. I get the small because it's quite large! If you look at the bar to the left, they have all three sizes so you can decide if you want a larger portion. Highly recommend! The flavor profile is emense as is, but they have this pepper oil that you can add for some extra spice! They also have Sriracha if you enjoy the classics. I get the Vietnamese iced coffee to go, and it really just completes the lunch. Quite an amazing experience from start to finish. Exactly what you'd expect from a great restaurant. read more

Ordered to-go during covid-19. Dining room is open but I don't feel comfortable eating at restaurants yet. The phone ordering process was pleasant. The gentleman that answered my call was patient and informative. Veggie stir-fry. My friend ordered this but it wasn't what either of us expected and my friend was not pleased with the taste. D Vegetable noodle soup. It was just ok. Generous portion and I love the vegetables included. However, the broth was not flavorful and the vegetables needed to be cut smaller. Additionally, the noodles were more like spaghetti noodles than rice noodles. Overall, the dish was difficult to eat. C Perhaps I came on an off-day, or vegetable dishes aren't their forte (which could explain the limited selection). But, I would not return. read more

3.5 stars "Pricey and overcooked noodles, but owner is willing to improve" Food: 2 stars due to broken over cooked noodles Staff damage control with good attitude: 1.5 extra star I was on the way out of town and wanted some pho. This place had good reviews so I came. I ordered their XL large pho (it's just the broth and the meat that's extra, not the noodles) for a whopping $17. The pho came after about 15 minutes and I was shocked- the noodles are over cooked and when I tried to lift them up they broke immediately- I have never had this happen in any pho restaurant. It also wasn't large enough to be called an XL, IMO. The "rare steak" came all well cooked, unlike authentic pho they are normally lightly cooked. I wasn't gonna say anything but I couldn't pick up the noodles because they would break. I finally talked to my waitress about it and she brought me a small bowl of soup and noodles. This time noodles weren't over cooked. I gave them an extra star and a half for their willingness to correct their issues. read more

Best Vietnamese in the area! Being a recent Chicago transplant, my Asian food standards are high. I have yet to find a Thai, Korean, or Chinese place that really hits it out of the park for me. I look for a combo of authenticity, taste, and value. Don't charge me $15 for fried rice if it's not authentic AND tastes just ok you know what I mean? Pho Dakao has a great mix of all of the above. First and foremost, EVERYTHING is delicious! I've eaten in and taken out numerous times, and it's consistently good. In this current Covid era, it's important that food travels well when you order take out. Although I'm not Vietnamese, there were plenty of Vietnamese patrons there which definitely gives them street cred. But from frequenting Chicago's Uptown, this place is very authentic in my opinion. The prices are fair what the quality and quantity you get. I like that there is only a small price difference between each size of bowls. I only wish for their pho, they had some type of build your own because I want a specific assortment of meats and my best bet is to get the combo and add meatballs and just put aside the ones I don't want. Otherwise it gets too pricey to add them individually. Even my mom who is super picky requests to eat here when she comes to visit from Chicago. Bonus: the bathrooms and overall place is clean and the service is always nice and friendly! read more

I took out food so no in dining service rating reflected in this review. Late night shopping took me to this place because a look for someplace near to me on Yelp. I was not disappointed! It's in the shopping center with marshals and resigns and has only been open a couple of months. I ordered on the phone to go and by the time I was there it was hot and ready! I asked for the combination and had the steak and brisket. Very well packed and the container was sturdy so it didn't fall apart by the time I was ready to put together my Pho If you like Pho, I suggest order the large portion because leftovers are good and you get more value for your money for only a dollar more! I will definitely come back! Came back and dined in. As I expected the service was great Regina was very attentive, Pho came out very hot!! Which is how it should be! This is my new go to pho place when I'm in Marietta! read more

This was our first experience here, and honestly, it was great! The service was excellent, and our waitress made several excellent suggestions. My wife and I split the Papaya Salad appetizer and the Marinated Beef Tenderloin entree. Both were excellent. What looks like noodles in the picture of the salad is actually shredded green papaya. This salad was fantastic, and we definitely will be having that again. The flavor was excellent... just a hint of sweetness. The entree was also excellent. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the marinated beef was packed with flavor. If you like this style of food at all, you should stop in. read more

Place is easy to find in a strip mall. The restaurant looks small from the front, but expands out to a sizable dining area as you walk in. The service was OK. It seemed that only 2 people were serving and the place was packed. The servers were doing an amazing job juggling take out orders one after another. The food took a while to come to our table. However, it was absolutely delicious! The fried rice and chicken plate we shared was scrumptious! The pho we ordered was delicious! The broth was hot, savory and spot on. The fresh crispy sprouts and fresh basil added a wonderful taste to our pallets that lingered pleasantly. My chicken was a bit cold and chewy, but I took it home and my dogs loved it. The noodles were just right. Service was a bit slow due to how busy they were. Nevertheless, the servers were really hustling. Our server was polite, accommodating and friendly. We ended up taking half of our pho home. Unfortunately, it did not taste the same the next day. Our dogs enjoyed the left overs. I would definitely recommend Pho Dakao if you are eating the food right away. Don't save it for the next day. read more
