    Food was good, but the service wasn't. I asked if they could split the soup for sharing, but instead I was given an extra bowl to do it myself. By the time I managed, my food was cold. Overall, not a great experience. I probably won't be a returning customer.

    Chicken and Noodles Pho
    Graciela C.

    First time to this restaurant, wanted to try the food out especially since there were some good comments. We entered and were greeted from a distance by a waitperson to sit wherever we wanted. They soon brought menus, silverware and took our drink order and later returned to take our food order. We had two different waiters bring our drinks, condiments and food. We had 3 different sauce cups brought to us; we asked what they were for, the waiter told us but we had a hard time understanding him. The food was good, my husband liked the chicken and noodles pho and I got something similar to a bun with shrimp and stir fried vegetables with very little and subtle flavor. I was told one of the sauce cups was to be poured into the dish. The vegetable rolls were hardly filled and somewhat greasy. The restaurant was lightly decorated with an Asian flare and music in the background; I would recommend it to be turned down just a tad. There was a customer's baby crying almost the entire time we were there.

    Was looking for a last minute spot and this hit the spot! Broth was amazing service was 10/10

    BEEF NOODLE PHO

    Oh, wow. Has it really been three months since I last churned out a five-star review? Pho Houston in the heart of McAllen really broke me out of my funk. My family and I dropped by here during our Thanksgiving weekend excursion to the Rio Grande Valley, and yes, the name had a lot to do with it. As it turned out, the owner(s) moved south from Houston. I've had my fill of Chinese and Japanese cuisine near the border, but it was my first time having Vietnamese far away from home. The beef noodle pho I had on what was a wet, dreary afternoon did its job of keeping my stomach satisfied for the rest of the day. I loved how flavorful and aromatic it was. Everything from the beef chunks to the noodles were fresh. The egg rolls I had beforehand were an excellent way to start lunch. Since we head toward these parts every year when the weather is cooperative, it's likely a second visit in the future will happen.

    Vermicelli

    Pho broth is really nice. It's not too sweet like other Pho restaurants. The original Pho flavor should not be sweet. The portion is pretty small. The Pho noodle is ok, it's not well done. Meat and topping are decent. Vermicelli and fish sauce are decent but nothing to blow me away. They don't honor the check-in on Yelp, but it's a mom-and-pop shop. I don't think they manage their Yelp page. Probably someone helped them to create the page and never updated it.

    #7 beef pho
    Una A.

    Place came highly recommended and so we stopped by for dinner. We were greeted and seated immediately. It's a cute Mom & Pop stop. I was also reassured as there were other Asians dining there! There were plenty of tables full of dirty dishes waiting to be cleaned. The place was moderately full. We got our drink order in right away. We ordered spring rolls and pho. I had the beef and my hubby had a shrimp/pork pho. The spring rolls were delicious. Not convinced that they're home made, but good nonetheless. I do appreciate that Hubby and I got our own sauce to dip. We didn't have to share, which I liked more than I expected. My beef pho was good. It has a lot of hot broth. Noodles were more al dente than I preferred. The beef was generous with the flank steak and meatballs. The broth was good, but I've had better. Maybe it was late and the broth got watered down, but it lacked depth and the flavors weren't balanced. I tried my hubby's pho, which uses a different broth. I believe it was chicken based, but it was lighter and smoother. It was more delicate and rich. I would've preferred that one and would have probably enjoyed it more. Next time I'll try their vermicelli or another pho

    Not sure

    My face is on fire(in a good way) and my belly is full! I enjoyed it. Best Pho so far in the Valley. I agree with the other review about the sweetness of the broth. I want that rich, beefy, I spent three days making the broth flavor. Can only give a 3.6 star rating. Portion was just right.

    This place is good. Was visiting from another town but this spot tastes like home. Staff is friendly.
