Good food. Excellent service. Spouse likes the Pho. I like the vermicelli bowls. We both like the Spring rolls. Yum! read more

We were around the area and were looking for something to eat and saw this place. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The broth was flavorful, the pho tasted fresh, and the overall quality was good. The meat was a little chewy for my taste, but overall it was an enjoyable bowl of pho and a good dining experience. read more

So many one star reviews? Is this on a hit list? This is a pretty normal pho place. I didn't notice anything about it that should warrant such a low average. Although....I can't exactly increase the average by much. I didn't really like the broth. It struck me as being slightly more salty and slightly less savory. Not terrible though, just okay. Also, the beef steak was a teeny bit thick and overcooked. Some places put it on top at the last second so it's still kinda pink when it reaches the customer. This joint just kinda has it in there. Having said that, the texture was still okay. It wasn't too tough or anything. read more

Was in the area today and stopped by for the first time I was pleasantly surprised. We moved from San Jose, CA so I know real Vietnamese food and this place was delicious and flavorful! Also the lady at the front I believe is the owner, she's very sweet and friendly. Will definitely be coming back again!! read more

Great food and great service! We have been coming for years and we appreciate the consistency. I wanted to address the lower reviews for this establishment, and explain what I have learned. When people give one star reviews, click on that profile. You will find that many people only use yelp to complain and be negative, or are trying to sabotage a business. In my opinion, anyone who gives a review, should at least attempt to contact the business first to share their experience. And for the people who only use yelp to complain, try spreading some positivity into our community and start leaving positive feedback as well. Like I said, if I click on a user and the only reviews they leave are negative, I don't even read it. Enjoy!! read more

Love the seafood or beef pho,wings,spring rolls..... Very authentic,unique flavor Family owned business read more

wow ! no basil in the spring rollsso sad they have deleted that . they are usually so good

Been coming here for six years or so. The food has always been great. Flavorful broth, noodles just right, vegetables and proteins well balanced. Pho is all about the broth and they never disappoint. The service has always been quick and friendly. A lot of reviews seem to expect some kind of bubbly fake cheerfulness. We're always greeted with a smile and a thank you when we leave. This is our goto when we can't or don't want to cook. We always leave with a satisfied belly. read more

I've eaten at hundreds of pho restaurants around the country. Pho Dat has some of the best broth I've ever tasted. Easily top 5. Will be back. read more

The food is good. It did take some time to get my order. First one sent out was wrong and it took equally long to get my next try of my original order. Had the cold vermicelli noodles with egg roll and pork. The dish itself is good. But not sure what it was...I was left with a rumbling gut. It didn't lead to anything explosive...just percolating. My buddy had the pho with something. The broth was really flavorful. I also got the iced coffee which is definitely brewed and drip style. Not that instant stuff. I'd go back, but not during lunch for work because it took so long. read more

Wanted to love this place, but this restaurant will never answer their phone, for a to go order. I'm convinced it's intentional at this point.. Forces you to order online through sites like DoorDash. Which is fine. Until you drive 15 min to pick up your food, and the place is pitch dark, and closed!? No call, message, nothing. And still charged me. Order was placed over an hour before closing, and they still did nothing. Hate to be that person, but this one really irked me. Save your money and time. read more

I've been coming here for years when I have a pho craving. The broth is flavorful, but the amount of meat isn't much. The service does take a little longer depending on when you go. Don't expect a warm smile from the owner, but he is kind. read more

Pros: Tasted okay. Not great but fine. Cons: Gave me food poisoning. :( Eat at your own risk. read more

I made a yelp account just to leave this review. Please note, my family is from Vietnam, I've helped work at 3 pho restaurants with them, this review is simply about a place with people I would never want to eat from. I ordered online for pick up and they accepted it, I paid $17.92 for one small pho. I asked for extra hoisin, lime and chili oil please. I go to pick it up 35 minutes later and when I get there, the man working the front tells me he's not making it because "they're asking for too much", then tells me "they" need to call to get it cancelled because he is not going to make it for someone asking for "a lot a lot a lot a lot". I told him I can pay extra for sauce right now if he needs and I have my card in hand and he says no, he's not making it, then proceeds to go on about how the person who ordered asked for too much. I tell him to cancel the order then so I don't get a fee for cancelling this late, he says no, I need to. After going back and forth and me telling him he needs to cancel it if he's the one who isn't going to make it, he refuses again and again, all because he "didnt know how much sauce to give". He keeps saying "they" and "the person" so I clarify that I am the one who placed the order and came to pick it up for myself, and that I just wanted a pho with extra sauce, at this point I'm tearing up because cmon man, either give me the refund or the food, and after he realized that he's telling me all this stuff about the order that I know I didn't say, mind you, it's been like 5-10 minutes of him doing this, being rude and raising his voice, he goes "oh, did you still want the pho?". I say no, you need to send the refund and finally leave. read more

Fantastic food, It makes me sad that there is such low reviews! Food was fresh, broth was delicious. My partner and I have eaten here MANY many times and have always left happy. Don't be discouraged by the reviews. This place is a gem! read more

I live 2 blocks away Got basic pho, home in two minutes Meat was grey and slimy, really gross meat-juice had sunk into the noodles, like it had been prepped a week ago then sat in a cooler somewhere broth was room-temp, barely cooked the noodles $30+ with no drinks I did not eat it (please be careful with raw and tainted meat) read more

I wish I could give this place zero stars. Ordered several spring rolls after waiting in the lobby for a few minutes and the guy tells me he won't take debit/credit cards for orders under $15. Someone came in right after me that called in an order and was going to pay cash, and he said that a card was okay, even though the order was under $15. Absolutely ridiculous! read more

I always give a restaurant two chances and gave this one three. Each time I've been sick from my wheat allergy symptoms. Most pho is okay for me but it's understandable that some places aren't; I just wanted to leave this here in case anyone else with wheat allergy or celiac disease is considering this place to have a heads up. read more

Cute lil pho place and customer service was just alright. Pho tasted delicious so I would def come back. read more

Pho Dat - Small #1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Arlington, Washington

Okay I went here with a friend. He and some other buddies are regulars and I let them order for me. I figured why not? I'll let the frequent flyers set me up with the good stuff. I'm a noob at Pho but I figured out its noodle soup with the other stuff. I had a small size #1 which is the Pho broth, noodles, and some beef which was sliced thin and appeared to cook in the hot broth. I doctored mine up like my bros did with chili sauce and some pepper. We were given a plate of sliced jalapeños, bean sprouts, and some twigs of what I decided was mint. This is a process now, no digging right in. Once I thought I had it all decked out with the sprouts and what not I used chop stix and one of those Asian soup spoon/ladle thingies to dig in. That seemed to be the prevailing method to actually eat this stuff. Okay time to eat. Holy cow the broth was very flavorful and hot. Temperature and spice level both. I would eat this stuff if I had a cold. It was very good. Toward the bottom of the bowl all the flavors were concentrated. Yum. The broth stayed hot to the end and I didn't eat fast. My only regret is I didn't get the large bowl. I will definitely get that on the next trip. There are other menu items such as appetizers. I never actually looked at a menu. I just saw some snacky hand food coming out of the kitchen and it looked good. The gal who served us was the owner's daughter and she knows the guys I was with. She was friendly of course. There were no check backs as we ate but I didn't care about that. For those of you who are needy and require frequent interaction with the server you will not get that here. Also when you're done you walk up to the counter to pay. No cards accepted for checks under $10. I guess one could achieve a sub $10 check there. The small bowl is around $8. I asked for a Diet soda and got a 20 oz bottle of Diet Coke and a glass with ice so I'm assuming there's no fountain drinks with refills. I'm considering going back very soon. The restaurant was clean enough but I didn't do an inspection tour of the whole place. Didn't even hit the restroom. It's nothing fancy and there's some nondescript art on the walls but not much else. They specialize in the Pho. The Pho. The Pho. read more

The pho here is pretty good. You get what you pay for and the service is pretty good. Area nice and clean as well. read more

Lol was gonna come on here and roast this dude and his business but 2.5 stars goddamn. Was in an empty parking lot owner almost hits me with the car doesn't say anything, and then we I go to order a bubble tea, tells me it's gonna be over an hour. I just don't think he wanted my business. Which is cool, it's a free country. read more

Was in the area and my family was craving for pho on a rainy evening. Seems like this is the closest pho place to us so we decided to just go in. I did read some previous reviews but just ignored it. So here goes my little 2 cents: Customer service does need improvement. Guy who served us ( the only person there besides the cook in the back I guess) didn't even say hi to us. He just handed us our menus. Then he came back and asked if we were ready to order which we were. We got number 2a and a number 6...also ordered some fried chicken wings... tbh, I've had better phos. And as far as the chicken, it was so bland!!! I think they forgot to add any seasonings at all!!! Also he checked how everything was for us. And when we were leaving, he did say thank you, but not even looked at us leaving.... Final say: I don't think I will ever go back to this place. If I was ever craving for pho, I would rather drive to marysville or everett... customer service is a biggie for me... read more

Chicken was dry, small portions fir chowmein, had stomach ache after eating , 2 soups 2 chowmeins 67.00! Will not be back

Terrible pho in washington state. the pho broth was disgustin, the service was horribl, ambiance was like sitting in a investigation room. DO NOT GO HERE FOR PHO. there is a pho place literally 20 yeards away from here call Pho basil. read more

The most rude and gross food I have had in this area. Please do not go! Read all the reviews here. The same people own it and as a person who has traveled the world this is one of the most disgusting irritating morbid and sad restaurants I've ever been to I don't know why I went back more than words and the fact that we don't have that type of food in this area very much and may be better the next time. Then I read the reviews online and understood that this is why I should narrow down back I'm afraid I may have food poisoning right now they need to be stopped. Do not do not take care I love you all read more

It wasn't busy when we got here at 7pm on a Wednesday. We were seated and given menus immediately. Once we were seated - it took a while for him to take our order. Once he did, he wasn't too friendly. I ordered number 31: Vermicelli Noodles with Stir-fried Tofu & Vegetable. I will say that they have an awesome selection of food. Some pho places only have pho and 3 or 4 rice/vermicelli dishes on their menu so I was pleasantly surprised to see tofu :) It didn't take long to get our food. When I got my food, it looked yummy but the sauce comes already mixed with the noodles & it made my noodles fat and slimy. The tofu wasn't really fried - it was more boiled. I was really hungry so I ate a good part of it but honestly, it was really bland. I went home and ate a better dinner. You pay up front. I think there is only 1 or 2 people running this place because they seemed busy even if there was only 2 other groups besides us. read more

Ordered 2 plates (4 rolls total) of tofu rolls to go, when I got home I realized I had gotten 2 tofu and 2 shrimp rolls. I used to work for a pho restaurant and understand places make things differently but the rolls only consisted of lettuce, vermicelli noodles and tofu/shrimp. Ordering from many other places you usually will get more vegetables in them I.e. carrots, cucumbers, Thai basil. Was disappointed as I was craving these all week. :( read more

Welp, we just found the G spot. This place is really good food & portions are good in my book, our spring rolls tasted clean not fishy. This guy is super nice. We've been to China town to Everett and cities in between & now here. This place just Won our business. Happy eating!! read more

I dont really write a review and this might even be the first time i write a review lol. The food is good! The broth is amazing but the service is definitely bad. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt that maybe they're just busy or some language barrier but yeah..... idk man.... Gave our orders and was so ready to leave but i still got orders to say and really doesn't communicate. Anyway like i said i wanna give them the benefit of the doubt. I mean you go to a restaurant to eat anyway so yeah just enjoy the food lol read more

Just a place to get some Pho. Service is quick, but not friendly. Prices seem to be a bit high.

Bunch if rude people work there. Food was fine, but the service is terrible. Don't waste your time.

If you have not tried this spot you are definitely missing out! Not only do they have the best tasting broth (I like their seafood pho) and spring rolls, their service is warm and speedy. I have tried every place in the area but I always come back here. Thank you! read more

Amazing service and amazing pho! Some of the best I've had! I've had some others in the area and this is by far the best
