If you are craving a large bowl of noodles at an affordable price, this is the spot for you. I got a huge bowl of chicken noodles with veg - there was a wide variety of vegetables which added a lot to the dish, both in terms of flavors/textures but also volume of food. I wouldn't normally think of this when I think of chicken pho, but it was homey in taste (I could picture an auntie cooking this for me). The spring rolls were a little disappointing - it could have done with a little more filling. The sauce was good, not too salty. The rainbow ice was a solid drink/dessert. Though I have to take mine to go as I was too full from my noodle soup (which I couldn't finish). Service was fine, pretty fast in getting the food out. read more

My bf and I went to "pho grand" in Chinatown (manhattan). Pho was pretty bad, noodles overcooked and broth had little to no flavor. My bf's "#1" dish was suppose to be a big bowl of pho (even listed on the menu "big") but the bowl was the same size as mine. Server also gave attitude and rushed us to order after literally a minute of sitting down. Won't be coming here again. read more

Swing by this classic neighbourhood spot for a quick dinner - definitely satisfied the itch for pho! We ordered a big bowl (#1) and enjoyed the assortment of different proteins. We also ordered the salt and pepper squid - a bit on the salty side, but went well with the broth. Overall a solid spot and I'd definitely swing by again if in the area! read more

Tried Pho Grand for takeout and got the grilled pork chop over rice, and it hit the spot late at night. The pork was well-marinated, nicely charred, and had a great balance of sweet and savory, although I will add some parts of it were tough while some were more juicier. Topped with a bit of scallion oil, it added a nice touch of richness. The rice portion was good, and it came with crisp, shredded veggies and fresh tomato and cucumber on the side -- refreshing and crunchy. The fish sauce dressing brought everything together without overpowering the dish. Overall, a satisfying and well-executed rice plate. Would definitely come back to try their pho or other grilled options. Solid 4/5! read more

This unrefined yet dependable Vietnamese restaurant may not have the polish of more upscale spots, but it more than makes up for it with consistently delicious, hearty dishes. I ordered the sushi bento box and papaya salad to-go and damn! It came with a lot of food... The flavors are bold and authentic, with a focus on comfort food that hits the spot every time. Whether it's their fragrant pho, perfectly grilled banh mi, or satisfying rice dishes, each meal feels like a warm, homemade experience. The meals seem to be often simple, satisfying, and always reliable. For anyone craving a genuine taste of Vietnam without the fuss, this place is a decent go-to. read more

Love love love this place! Brought my mum, grandmum and husband here for dinner on a cold winter night and they all pretty much loved everything we ordered! Can't really go wrong with the authentic #1 Pho so we of course got that.. followed by Bun Bo Hue since I'm a spicy junkie. My grandma is a huge fan of spring rolls so we got their crispy spring rolls (which btw.. is actually super crispy) and I can't remember the last dish but I think it's Banh Uoc and Mi Xao Don. (Viet Steamed Rice Noodle Sheets and Pan Fried Crispy Noodles). Mi xao don is a bit different than your traditional noodles which are either in soup or dry so this was nice that the sauce softens the noodles but if you get a bit of the deep fried parts, you still get that crunch! I like pairing this with seafood just because it brings back memories of dishes I ate growing up. Banh Uoc comes with the rice paper for you to wrap the pork slices in along with the garnishments. I like to douse mine in Sriracha but if I'm not mistaken, this should be dipped in fish sauce. Yum - it's a nice change from my usual spring rolls. Service was great - waiters didn't rush us and we were able to enjoy our meal in peace while having our tea consistently refilled. Pretty big establishment too so it'd be great for a quick bite, catch up, or family dinner. I think they take cash as well as credit card but there's a slight discount on cash if I remember correctly so make sure you bring enough!! read more

I think this might be the second time I've eaten at this restaurant over the last two decades. My mother and I came here on a work day at 11:00 a.m. and they open at 10:30 am. They're ready to take orders. I ordered the curry chicken noodle bowl and my mom ordered one of the pho bowls. Both came out of the kitchen not too long after. You could see the hot vapors coming off the surface of our noodle bowls. We were both pleased with the freshness of the noodles and the protein in the bowls. We both finished it and left no noodle behind. The decor of the restaurant also is nice for a date or celebration too. Restrooms for customers. read more

I love Pho Grand. I go here at least twice a month with friends because it is very consistent. We love the spring rolls, summer rolls, all of the pho, and vermicelli! This is our go to spot because we never have to wait to get seated, service is quicker, delicious food and very affordable. read more

Pho Grand - 13. Grilled Pork - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

Came for the pho but the most pleasant surprise was the banh mi sandwich. The baguette is so crisp and soft at the same time, and the filling (either grilled pork or chicken) is incredibly flavorful. That said, the pho is pretty good too, I would recommend their brisket which is tenderly cooked and not too dry. Wash it all down with a Vietnamese iced coffee for a perfect meal. Prices are pretty reasonable, the sandwiches are around $10 and each bowl of pho costs around $12-15. read more

Pho Grand - Grilled Pork Sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

I came here on Thanksgiving and there were a decent amount of customers! I got bo kho (beef noodle soup). This is one of my favorite Vietnamese soup noodles. It has a thicker broth (more stew like). It was $13.34 with tax. It satisfied my craving, but lacked a little flavor. So I recommend adding in the hot chili oil that's at the table. read more

This place has incredible service and they are very quick to take your order and give you your drinks, food, and the check. Haha! The shrimp rolls and the sauce was delicious and crunchy. The shrimp and mixed vegetables were yummy. It was a lot of food for me, so if you have a small stomach, you may want to share. The decor and lighting is pleasant as well. The bathrooms are a work of art. I would come back here again if I were in the area. read more

I had a hankering for pho so while I was in that part of town, I decided to finally visit this place since it came recommended. It was my first time having pho at a sit down restaurant since moving back to nyc from the west coast (takeout doesn't count). They quickly took my order and gave me my glass of water and the usual garnishments (jalapeño, bean sprouts, lime/lemon). I ordered a pho tai gan (pho with steak and tendon). The flavor was good and I was good with the steak. The tendon seemed to be falling apart before it arrived at my table. It's not bad but it is not my preference. It was not packed so it was not too loud and it was generally clean. For the price, it is a good portion in my opinion and definitely a good option close to the B/D grand street station. read more

It was a cold day and all I wanted was a hot soup. I was working in the area and took a walk in grand where I saw the sign with the magic word...pho! I had a plan to get a see standard pho but then I saw a chicken and noodle curry soup on the menu and I was sold. The soup was filled with plenty of chicken and noodles and the curry had great flavor!! Service is fast and the environment is casual. read more

I came in before closing time and they still sat me, although salty about it the service was good. The pho broth was very flavorful and I'm picky!! Not too watery either. I drank it cold the next morning and it was delicious. Egg rolls go crazy. Ambiance. read more

Pho Grand - Ohp - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

A great spot for pho in the city! I always go for a classic beef brisket pho, and theirs did not disappoint. The broth was full of flavor, and the beef was good quality. I have to say, it does irk me when the noodles are all stuck together in one big ball, and it's been like that most times I've been here. If they easily came apart, it would be no issue, but I had to work at it for a bit. But hey, maybe that's part of the experience. I've also had their crispy spring rolls and pork chop, which were really good. The pork chop comes on the side of the pho bowl and it's marinated really well. Really great meat overall. The spring rolls were pretty good, although I think they could be a little crispier. There aren't many ~good~ pho places in the city, so I'm happy to have this spot! read more

Came here with a group of friends (party of 7) and was seated very quickly during lunch on a Sunday. The place is very spacious and the menu was very simplistic. I ordered the number 1 big bowl and it had everything that I wanted from brisket, to tripe, and beef. I know this place is good when I do not need to add anything to the broth other than jalapenos. The broth was very clean and clear but very rich. Noodles were plentiful and there was a good amount of meat. After tax and tip, a big bowl was $15, which is very affordable. This is the perfect place to get pho and if you had a long night out, this is the best place to detox. One of the best pho places so far in NYC that I've tried. read more

I got the rice noodle soup with grilled pork. I liked that they have plenty of bean sprouts and that they cut up the pork for me as I know at other places you usually do it yourself. The only thing lacking was the broth which was not flavorful and was just salty. The service is efficient and they are quick to give you the bill. The restaurant is cozy and clean. read more

Pho Grand serves absolutely delicious Pho. It's the best I've had in NYC so far and I've been eating it and loving it since I was 9 at my best friend's house. Due to my first experience being homemade, it's been difficult finding comparable pho since, but this pho tastes homemade. The meat and noodles are fresh and the broth itself is perfect. It doesn't even need anything. We are happy we found this place and were hesitant to share our review because of how much we liked it, but yeah, this place deserves the love. Enjoy. read more

This is an interesting review to write because I didn't like the way some staff treated other patrons and myself. There was an argument where they didn't give the customer the correct order and still expected them to pay the price. Another instance, a customer had been waiting a long time to pick up their food but wasn't acknowledged so they took the food and were chased back in. It made me hesitant to continue my order. But the woman who brought my soup out was nice and I'm glad that I stayed. The food was delicious. I cannot take that away from them. I ordered the beef flank with the brisket and the meat was extremely tender. The soup came out piping hot. I never know what to season my pho with and with the initial taste, it didn't need much. I still added some sriracha, chili sauce, hoisin sauce, along with the basil, bean sprouts then squeezed the lemon over it. I also ordered a Banh Mi (chicken sandwich) and while I was waiting for it, the soup had cooled down enough for me to basically inhale it. That's how good it was. Although I feel that it took a bit for me to get the sandwich. Not the end of the world, the soup wasn't cold or anything. The Banh Mi was my first, so idk what to compare it to or what it's supposed to taste like. The chicken was sweet, I imagine it's supposed to be. When I dipped the Banh Mi into the soup, something I saw someone else do, it added so much to the flavor. The bread wasn't hard or dry, the sandwich was good on its own. The soup took it to the next level. I wanted to order a watermelon strawberry drink but was told that they were out and that the mango mix they had wasn't very good. I don't know if I should take it as transparency or them trying to get me out. There were staff members who would stand around looking for things to take. Maybe because it wasn't busy. If you're good at ignoring what's going on around you and want really good pho and Banh Mi, here's the place. Menu prices have also changed. read more

There is a bunch of Vietnamese places in this area and you really can't go wrong with any of them. I usually go to this one. The place is decent size, they have tables in the front and back of the restaurant. The decor is made of bamboo type wood, so the entire interior is wood looking. It is barely adequate lighting leaning towards the darker side. I generally do take out and I've dined in maybe like two times. Service is quite average, just enough. Food menu is quite extensive, with many of the typical Vietnamese dishes you would find in any Vietnamese restaurant. The pho is usually my go to. I wish the sauce pack is a bit bigger. It is in a barely quarter size container. The shrimp roll is ok, it's wrapped in a thick flour skin. The peanut sauce that comes with it is a bit watery. Prices are average since it's in lower Manhattan. Would definitely be back. read more

I haven't gotten down to ChinaTown since the pandemic, which is weird because I used to eat down here twice a week, but today... I made the trip to my favorite place: Pho Grand. I love everything here. The food is incredible. Prices are very low. The people that run the place are exceptional. This is a ten star place. Try the grilled pork chop. You will dump your partner and marry the pork chop. I'll sing at the wedding for $150. read more

Best pho spot I've found in New York! Perfect place for a cozy solo comfort meal! Really good prices. I get pho 3, the eye of round. The broth is amazing! There is a back dining room you can ask to sit in if you want a little more privacy, and staff is friendly. Good casual spot for family and groups or a solo cup of soup when you have a cold and don't want to be seen in your sweatpants! I come here whenever my I drink too much and need to replenish my skins collagen! So so yummy. $15 soup but leave a nice tip, I love this place read more

I order takeout from this place for lunch. So I have never actually sat in this place for food. My order is usually 1 big bowl for $15. Food: 5/5 The taste is just so good.

Pho Grand - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

Visited on a Saturday afternoon, place was clean. Servers were not so nice but I'm kind of used to it at some pho places. I ordered the combination pho and spring rolls. I didn't really like how servers kept looking at me, pressuring to order quickly. But! Who cares. Food was good. Pho- It tasted like a typical flavor enhanced pho with in South where I grew up. I personally like it, but I can tell why some people wouldn't like it because of the artificial taste. Spring roll- nothing too special. Lettuce, noodle, shrimp wrapped in a rice paper, served with peanut sauce. Nut allergy alert on this. It was fresh. Very very typical spring roll read more

My dad used to work for this restaurant before he retired. He shredded pounds of beef there. Like any other more popular restaurants in Chinatown, this one's been around through it all: The 2008 financial crisis, 2020 pandemic and possibly whatever that came before it. People should come to this Vietnamese restaurants if they want pho in Chinatown. This place can get busy so the nicest day to stop by would be a rainy day. The primary color for this restaurant is always green. The food is reasonably priced and and it is in big portions. Also, the staff are always friendly. read more

I love that they serve their take out pho orders in the wide black plastic bowls whereas most other places serve them in the tall quart containers. Their bowls make it so much easier to eat in. Their prices have not really changed and as a result, attract more customers during these hard times. I must say though, I've always felt like their portions were smaller than other places. It does not fill my tummy quite as well and I'd have to snack on things afterwards but that's ok. Since long ago, I've liked the kind of vermicelli they use in their pho. I feel like they're smoother than others but that might just be me. Their spring rolls however, are not my go-to. They are petite. The wrappers make up 70-80% of the spring roll itself and does not have that nice crisp to it. I personally prefer the spring rolls at Nam Son. read more

It's a decent option for Vietnamese by Grand St with a wide menu although they don't have Bun Bo Hue or Bun Rieu. The food here is decent but pretty standard. We got the pork chop rice and a chicken curry - the pork chop was well seasoned but a bit on the dry side and the chicken curry sauce was a little flatter ( no coconut milk to deepen the flavor dimensions). The prices are probably the lowest in the area - you can get a rice box for less than $10. Overall it's decent and will satisfy a craving for Vietnamese if you want something quick and cheap. read more

This is probably the best pho I've had. I ordered the fresh eye of round with beef broth noodle soup. It's basically just sliced thin beef pho. I added hoisin sauce, hot chili, peppers, lime and a lot of basil. The price was decent and there was a unexpected amount of beef. I finished the noodles before finishing the noodles, which was surprising. The beef was nice and tender. I am not a huge fan of pho but I have to give credit where it is due. The food arrived quick, the service was good, I enjoyed the plentiful amount of basil, bean spouts and lime on the plates. I would recommend and would get again. read more

Pho Grand - Fresh eye of round pho with the basil, pepper, and sauce's - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

We came on a Thursday night with a hankering for pho, and unfortunately, found Pho Grand to be a little underwhelming. The noodles in the pho were great - nice and chewy. But the broth was not very flavorful, and also not very hot. The slices of beef (which I like to see practically raw when brought out) were nearly all cooked through. All in all, it was not a great bowl of pho. That said, the grilled pork chop and rice dish was so flavorful. The pork chop had a nice char on it, and I enjoyed gnawing on the bone. The summer rolls were also good. FYI - they do not accept Discover. read more

A soup obsessed friend recommended this place. I've spent a lot of time in Vietnam so I was ready to be a harsh judge. The prices for this place wasn't bad. Especially compared to some Vietnamese restaurants I've seen. They were able to accommodate a party of five. When we ordered our food it came within 5mins. The pho was really delicious and I have no complaints about this location. I'd recommend the pho here. read more

Pho Grand may sound expensive, but it's actually so not! Each entree is between $5-13, and you get a good enough portion with each. I got the sauteed chicken with ginger and scallions, and my friend got shrimp fried rice. Both were standard Asian dishes, nothing amazing, but they did the job. My chicken dish was unnecessarily drenched, but I enjoyed the actual chicken pieces once I removed all the goop. The rice dish was not bad! It was a typical fish of fried rice with pieces of baby shrimp. The place is pretty cozy, too, which is hard to find in Chinatown. It's a nice restaurant with a woodsy cabin feel to it. Service is prompt and attentive. They bring you hot tea once you sit down, which I appreciated. I'd come back to try their phos. read more

Pho Grand - Vietnamese Near Me - New York, New York

It was cold yesterday but not frigid outside. The best thing to warm the soul on any wintry evening is pho. I ordered the #1 Big bowl and a hot cup of espresso. The Big bowl comes with so much fixings, slices of raw veal (this is normal and how it's serve authentically), slices of sauteed beef, and bits of tendons and other cartilagey goodness. I recommend it because it's full of noodles. The pho in the Big bowl reminds me of tasty flavors: sweet, salty, spicy (if you add srichacha...spelling?), sour (lemon wedge to drizzle sour goodness). I loved it! I wanted to drink the pho broth, but of course, that's not what you do here. Lol. I really enjoyed my hot espresso also. It came with a huge amount of condensed milk to balance the richness of my espresso. I loved it! I would totally return! I went with my friend who comes often! And it was so much fun! read more
