I eat quite often at Pho Don and it just recently occurred to me I've never reviewed it. The staff is great and while the location is small it is quite comfortable -- although I mostly order takeout. Their food is good (I particularly like the chicken rice platter) however their Vietnamese Coffee is possibly my favorite thing on the menu! read more

Stopped by Pho Don for the first time yesterday. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Food came out quickly and was hot, flavorful, and fresh. Pho broth had a lot of depth and layers of flavor, it was quite nice especially after spending a cold day hiking at Wissahickon. Prices were more than fair, plenty of seating. Would definitely come back here again! read more

This was my first visit to this establishment. I came across them on Uber Eats and saw that they had a deal for 2 plain pho for BOGO, came to appx $14 with tax. The broth was good, maybe a little too salty but outside of that very good flavor and umami. The noodles were packaged and cooked well, and separately from the broth, as it should be! My only feedback is on the cilantro and scallions. Maybe it was a one off, but they weren't cut properly. Instead of having a few bites floating in your spoonful, the scallions were 1-2 inches long, one of them was a full 4 inches - and the cilantro wasn't cut either, it was whole stems - which made the eating process less enjoyable. Outside of that, I liked the flavor enough that I would definitely give them another try the next time I crave pho. read more

My daughter highly recommended this place is owned two young men and they are very friendly. We order the rear grilled pork Banh mi sandwiches without looking at other option. After looking at the menu and just realized that they offer many options and they all looks yummy. Definitely coming back for more. read more

Food is outstanding! I got the grilled shrimp Pho with grilled steak and it's delicious! Try the homemade ice tea 10/10 i'll be ordering from here again and again read more

Never eaten in, but I've ordered Pho Don on Uber Eats several times, always amazing. Huge portions, super flavorful. The pho is great, but the chicken rice platter is my favorite: crispy skin, juicy meat. Also, the avocado coffee drink is a 10/10 it's so creamy and rich a must order. Everything is always packaged well I highly recommend eating here!! read more

First time having Pho Don and ordered on Uber Eats. It's always a good sign when the ratings on Google and Yelp agree with the Uber Eats. The food was fresh and warm. The meats were well flavored and paired well with the veggies and carbs. The fish sauce always adds a nice touch. Would love to dine in sometime! read more

Honestly the best pho I've had in my life. I usually don't like pho but for some weird reason has a craving for it today. I got take out so I can't speak towards ambience or service but the food was phenomenal. I just for the traditional pho with grilled shrimp. Came with tons of fixings. The broth was amazing. Even though it was delivered the broth was nice and hot. If I were to be picky my ONYL flaw was there weren't enough noodles, but overall it was wonderful. I will definitely order this again and look forward to trying more of the menu. read more

The shrimp egg rolls were awesome. Perfectly crispy. We both got tofu Bah Mis. Which is one of my favorite foods. Or was excellent and filling. They put tons of veggies on it too. We also got avocado shakes that were bangin. I got a Vietnamese coffee which wasn't as sweet as most places make it. That was a plus to me. read more

Stopped in for takeout from here. Ordered two Grilled pork viet hoagies. Plenty of parking earlier in the morning around 9:30 AM. The place was nice for that part of North Philly and the owner was friendly. The hoagie aka bahn mi was flavorful, crunchy and filling. Ingredients were fresh and the best part is the sandwich is affordable around $10. Def recommend whenever you're by Temple Hospital or in the Fairhill section of Philly. read more

I've been dining at Pho Don since they opened in 2018. This place is a hidden gem; in a neighborhood that lacks diversity and doesn't have many dine in options. Pho Don offers Authentic style Vietnamese dishes. I usually go for the Steak and Flank Pho which is super fulfilling. I've eaten from a significant number of Pho restaurants and this place beats most. The broth definitely matters! The crispy chicken rolls are also a must try. The Vietnamese Shrimp hoagie is different but very satisfying. I like to wash my meal down with a cup of fresh pineapple juice The restaurant itself is always clean, well lit and the owners are super sweet and accommodating. It's self seating if you manage to grab a table. On Friday's it gets busy with the staff from the neighboring hospital. Definitely worth a try if your ever in the area. read more

They are just ok. Right behind Temple hospital and at 530-6p pretty much the only place with lights on the block. The service was fast. I ordered online and ready 15 minutes. The food: Noodles firm, not squishy. That is a plus. The shrimp egg roll vermicelli was WOW (pictured below). Lemonade ($5.50) and young coconut just ($5.50) delicious, treat yourself. However the Pho. We had chicken and shrimp. The chicken had 0 flavor. Other chicken Pho usually grilled to give something. This no flavor. The shrimp (9) were not seasoned either. Perhaps they bet on the broth to make flavor? 6/9 of the shrimp should've been cleaned better. Deveining wise. The broth was not as deep and flavorful as we hoped. Just kinda ok. Too many other places to try, I wouldn't return. But if thirsty and wanted to treat myself-- drinks on point. read more

Ordered delivery to satisfy my pho craving. We decided on Shrimp and Chicken Pho and veggie spring rolls. The pho was packaged so well. I love that the noodles, toppings and broth were packaged separately. I enjoyed making my dinner to my liking. I also loved that you could customize the toppings on their website, so I could exclude Cilantro. (Cilantro-soap tasters unite lol) I definitely recommend and look forward to dining in next time I'm in the area. read more

The staff are pleasant and very attentive to anyone who comes in. They fed a homeless man first time I was here I thought that was a rare qualtity to see nOw a days but great to see in an establishment so close to home! I give them 5 stars if you are shopping in Germantown stop by this place ! It won't disappoint read more

A decent Vietnamese restaurant that is a welcome find in this neighborhood where diversity is somewhat lacking. It was close to my client's office and street parking was available a block away. Inside it's clean and up-to-date and the menu was easy to browse. Their spicy basket was neatly organized and ready for action. I ordered Pho Tai Nam (beef briskets and round) large and it came in a large bowl filled with a generous quantity of meat and noodles. Noodle wasn't visible because they were all on the bottom, so I had to untangle 'em a bit. This is normal in most Pho joints. The meat, while generous in portion also showed signs of pre-made preparation. Few thin slaps were stuck together in the bottom of the bowl, and some chunks were unusually thick. Had a good taste, but it could've been more uniformly sliced and prepared after-order. I would give 2 stars except the service was pretty commendable - cashier lady came to me with a spare napkin when she realized that I was using one as an apron to prevent my work shirt from the noodle splatters. Food also came out quickly and I was in-and-out within 15 minutes, no joke. While not the best it can be, this is a great place to get a quick Pho in this neighborhood. read more

Yum yum!! Searching for something hearty and Yelp brought me here. The pho ga was everything I needed and more. So delicious and hot. The shrimp roll was nice and light. I loved the fact that when I was done eating I was full but not overly stuffed. Would've totally gotten some Thai iced tea if I had the space to gulp it down. read more

Five stars !!! Surprisingly good authentic Vietnamese food in the middle of a disadvantaged neighborhood. It's not as bad as Kensington neighborhood, but I would advise go before sundown and don't go alone. Now, onto the food : Very legit pho broth, has beef bones flavor and doesn't leave that extreme thirst aftertaste like those from fake powder pho broths. The meat is a bit thick, but acceptable. I would advise them to invest in a meat slicer to get super thin slices. Also to slice the tripe thinner too. Noodles are cooked well and not too soggy or chewy. Veggies are super fresh ! The bessstttt part for me is their homemade sate chillies lemongrass sauce. Oh my my ! It gives every dish that extra layer of flavor and aroma ! I don't see this at every Viet restaurant Banh mi - bbq beef is bomb !!! Omg has to be my top 3 spots in Philly for banh mi. Love the scallions mayo. Well seasoned meat. Crispy fluffy bread. Freshly pickled daikon carrots. Great balance. Smoothies are juices are REAL fruits. I see 5 watermelons and bunch of bananas, pineapples, mangos etc on display. Prices are very reasonable, lower than at other Viet places in nicer areas. They do take credit card and has delivery service. Service was friendly, fast, and they speak English well. I hope they do well and expand locations to more commercialized neighborhoods like south Philly. Easier and safer to get to. But for now, prices are great and I will continue to make the trek there. read more

I have been going to Pho Don for almost 4 years consistently. The owners Dong and Tran cook authentic Vietnamese style pho and banh mi. Their Vietnamese iced coffee is also amazing. I highly recommend ordering from them. They are my favorite banh mi place in Philadelphia. read more

Mushy shrimps the consistency of mashed potatoes were in my pho. I told the people about the shrimps thar worked there, they said they were probably over cooked. That is all!! They offered nothing no apology nothing!! I had to throw all of them away. Really disappointed this spot is in the hood I guess they think they can give you any type of service. read more

Best pho in these Germantown streets. The broth was A1. The delivery was extremely fast. I was feeling under the weather and half way through I was feeling way better. I've had pho all over the world and this is up there with the best of them. Thank you Pho Don for having integrity in your food. I ordered the chicken pho btw. 8 stars read more

Hidden gem for sure. Everything is so fresh, the fruit juices seem cold pressed. Definitely an underrated spot.

Amazing and authentic Vietnamese food. Their mango smoothie and lemonade was so fresh and yummy.

In a part of town you wouldn't expect, many businesses close early on the street while Pho Don stays open. Great food options and really good pricing. Portions are very generous - I got the summer shrimp roll and steak/tendon pho. Both SUPER delicious! Ate it fresh and hot right in the restaurant. Definitely will be back when I'm in town. read more

Well done typical Vietnamese dishes. Nice family run spot. So glad to have this within delivery range!

Got an order here through UberEats and was disappointed. The shrimp summer roll only had noodles, rice and shrimp. Other places usually add bean sprouts or other things to give it more substance. The deluxe pho was very fatty with a thick layer of oil on the top. There were 4 pieces of meat, a slice of meatball and the hugest chunk of tendon. There was also a small hair intertwined in the tendon. The broth was salty too. It would be better if they didn't combine the hoisin and sriracha in the same sauce container. I was also surprised to see the meat cooked in the same container as the broth. I thought the beef would be raw and separated. read more

The food here wows me every time! I love the bahn mi grilled pork sandwich and vermicelli bowls! Cucumber lemonade is also a must try.

My favorite pho and banh mi place!! I have only done delivery but every time I do it's so good! I only order pho from here because it's the tastiest in the city! The pho broth is literally the best and so flavorful. The steak banh mi gives a lot of marinated steak. I would say ask for jalapeños for the banh mi if you like it spicy. The summer rolls are good too! read more

I went here with friends to check out this new spot. Despite it looks as same as other restaurants but I was surprised by the quality and service.

In addition, their smoothies are made from real fresh fruits which is a big plus compared to other artificial flavor coffee or boba tea shops in town. Definitely come back here. read more
