    Wow. This place was a trip. Quite possibly one of the worst dining experiences in my entire life. I went with my coworker to get some pho from this place during our lunch break. I looked at the Yelp and Google reviews and pictures, looked good! We drove over ready to order food to go. As I walked in I held the door open for several parties (this will become important), and we ordered our food to go from the cashier/server. All is well. Well, about 10 minutes after we order our food, we can see bowls of pho coming out for all the dine-in customers, which included the people I held the door for who ordered after us. "Huh, that's weird" I think to myself. From this point, the sole cashier/server keeps bringing out bowls of pho to the dine-in customers, most of which seated themselves after us. At this point, I wasn't assuming the restaurant was acting in bad faith, but I was increasingly confused why our food hadn't come out. The cashier/server knew we were waiting for our food, we were literally sitting right in front of her. Finally, after about 25 minutes of other people being served, my coworker gets up to ask if our food is coming out. Cashier/server tells her that the kitchen "prioritizes" dine-in servers over the to-go orders. Excuse me, what? Yes, this is the insanity of how this restaurant operates. We, people ordering take-out, were continually cut in line by absolutely anybody who walked in the door. We ordered our pho first, but that couple behind you who are dining in? Served first. Sure we should be next, but another party dining in just walked in the door, served before us. This is an absolutely insane way of doing business, I've never heard of a restaurant operating like this in my life. And yet it kept happening, people walking in 20 minutes after us were served first. I guess take-out is not a concept here. Finally, we have to leave, lunch break is only so long. I ask the cashier/server if our food is ready, she once again explains that the kitchen prioritizes dine-in customers first. We have been sitting in front of her for 30 minutes waiting for our food while she delivered food to the entire rest of the restaurant! She knew we were waiting! So I say we have to leave, will the food be ready to go in the next few minutes. I was this close to asking for a full refund, which knowing what I know now should have happened 20 minutes ago. Now I am standing at the register, point blank asking after our food. And finally, finally it comes out. They hadn't even started making our order, they only made it because I was telling her we have to leave. To add insult to injury, after they started making it it was out in two minutes. Why did we have to wait 30 minutes for our food while we were literally sitting in the restaurant? Why was every single customer served before us before we asked where our food was? After the cashier/server brought the food out I say, "Look, I am not blaming you, but you have literally served everybody else in the restaurant other than us." "Yep, that's how the kitchen does it." No apologies, or understanding, or anything, really. What kind of restaurant operates like this?! Absolute insanity. We get back to work with no time to eat the food we did have. And here's the absolute kicker. Look at the picture of my to-go pho. They didn't even put it together! And, yes, I realize this is preferable for to-go pho to mix it all together when you get home, but we had waited 30 minutes for a meal that should take 2 minutes to put together, and they hadn't even done that! What kind of business operates like this? Was it good pho? Possibly. I wouldn't know, I had to wolf it down in the few minutes I could get away, and it was awfully bland eating it like that. I hate to bad mouth businesses, but this place chose to make our experience bad every step of the way. Take our order? Cool. Choose to deliver food to the dine-in customers before us? That's what they did. Didn't have to, they CHOSE to. Watch us patiently waiting for food but server other first? Yep, they chose to do that, too. De-prioritize take-out customers to the point where they haven't even made the food we ordered before we complained? Once again, a specific action that this place CHOSE to do. When fielding a complaint about the service the cashier/server fired back with "that's how the kitchen operates"? Yep, once again, a choice on behalf of this restaurant. Despite what I said before, I now blame the cashier/server and the kitchen. At no point did they value us as paying customers, paying UP FRONT by the way! This place might have good food, but that was among the single worst dining experiences of my entire life, and I eat out a lot. Just a failure on every level. I may not know the best place to eat pho in Phoenix, but I know the one I would never recommend to anybody, and I will be telling everybody I know. Thanks, Pho Noodles, it was an experience.

    When I walked in the individual tried to seat me at a table with a cart full of dirty dishes and trash right next to the table. I sat at another place. I would recommend they spread people out when they come in, they had everyone to one side and it felt quite crowded that way. The young lady that took my order was very polite, and she just knew when I was ready to order. I got the spring rolls with chicken, a Thai tea, and a noddles with steak and brisket bowl. The food was good, exactly what I was expecting! The broth in the pho was more acidic than I'm used to, so I wasn't able to drink it all. The food was still really good and the Thai tea came out premixed and was still on point in sweetness! I'm glad I came here, was a nice lunch

    It had a really nasty taste like the shrimp was undercooked. We asked to replace it and they said they can't do anything about it. Not accommodating for poorly cooked food.

    Thai Tea- mostly ice...

    Food was great, my husband ordered the vermicelli bowl with pork and added shrimp, I ordered the pork chop with egg and we shared the Saigon crepe. All the food was really tasty and cooked well. We have tried other Vietnamese restaurants in the area and we really enjoyed our meals. My only comment is, I ordered a Thai tea. It was 90% ice and when we asked if they could refill it since it was mostly ice, the server said we don't do refills, you need to buy another drink. Now if the cup wasn't full of ice, we wouldn't have said anything but here is a picture of the cup. You all can decide for yourself.

    My family and I ordered shrimp pho, brisket pho, shrimp fried rice, and BBW. We also ordered fried egg rolls on the side. It came with 2. It was really good. Everything was tasty and flavorful. Good portions. Prices were very reasonable. Pho was around $12-$13. We would definitely come back and recommend it to others

    This place served me some of the best pho I've ever had, and some of the best spring rolls. The waitress was also super nice and helpful. I would definitely recommend this to anybody who loves Vietnamese food. The ambience was nice and clean very welcoming.

    Went from the airport and wanted pho. It was early and this was the closest place that was open. We are happy with the restaurant being open this early and will be coming back for breakfast pho again very soon!

    Those who've read my reviews know I love Phở... and my constant search for a 'legitimate' Phở, Phở Noodles on 21st Street, Phoenix is ranking with me as one of my top five in the Valley. Setting aside it's non-descript, no frills and simple décor, yet comfortable and accommodating. But at the heart of it all is the Phở. It's very, very good. My favorite style, Phở Tai Nam, is superb. Tender mouthwatering meats, incredible broth, along with splendidly fresh vegetable accoutréments - Cilantro, Bean Sprouts, Jalapeño, Basil leaves, and lime wedges! As was my Wife's Phở Tai. Very much like, if not the same as, it's Northern Phoenix sibling, Phở Noodles has an extraordinary preparation in the precise quantity of beef bone flavor within the preparation of its broth and seems to have the right quantity of ginger and onions with the right amount of fish sauce - they've done a marvelous job, almost perfect. BTW, they have delish and super fresh shrimp rolls in a super thin and fresh rice paper that's excellent. This may be our neighborhood go to Phở place.

    Came in on late afternoon around 5pm on a Saturday. Plenty of parking and to my surprise, the place was empty! I feel like VIP having the place to myself. Seat any where you want. They have regular tables and also booths (non partitions) Service was fast, a quick glance at the menu and I knew what I wanted. I always get the combo $14.95 I believe, no size selection. Shrimp/pork spring rolls, black iced coffee. Everything came out SUPER fast, almost as fast as fast food joint (if not faster!) Good lord at least let the noodles bath a bit in the broth first. It's still in that "ball" of noodles shape. Broth was very good but they didn't fill it up to the bowl so that was a bit disappointing as I usually love to inhale the soup like no tomorrow. And the soup wasn't super hot (temperature wise) just hot but as soon as you start dipping in the bean sprouts, it cools off quickly. And the meat, while it's good, (where's the rest of it??) A bit stingy if you ask me. Everything else was good

We happened upon a charming restaurant situated right along the road just past the 17th Street traffic lights and a rather marvelous discovery it turned out to be. They even accommodate reservations, which is always a reassuring touch for a well-planned afternoon. Upon arrival, we were pleased to find a wonderfully convenient parking spot, which immediately set a relaxed tone. Stepping inside, the venue was beautifully lively and bustling with a wonderful crowd, yet it maintained a thoroughly nice, comfortable atmosphere. The staff welcomed us with immense warmth, and I found their level of hospitality to be entirely satisfactory. To commence the luncheon, I ordered a Thai Tea my very first and it was absolute perfection. They also offer a selection of desserts, which I shall certainly have to explore on a future visit. When it came to selecting my entrée, our waiter was exceedingly nice, explaining the menu with the utmost patience. Following his guidance, I chose the Wonton Noodle Soup with ribs. The kitchen's timing was impeccable; precisely fifteen minutes later, it was presented at our table. The dish was a absolute triumph the noodles paired with the rich, savory ribs were utterly exciting to the palate. This establishment has officially earned a very special place in my diary. Between the flawless service, the warm ambiance, and the superb cuisine, it was a thoroughly successful introduction. I shall most certainly be returning

The space feels inviting and has a pleasant atmosphere. Food The food was good. We ordered the catfish spring rolls and they were delicious once everything finally made it to the table. Service The service was the biggest issue and it was very disappointing, especially since my family has been coming here for 3 years. Parts of our order were missing, including several side dishes and even the sauce for the spring rolls. We asked for a cup of ice and that was missing too. We waited about 10 minutes after receiving the catfish before the vegetables were brought out and we had to keep asking for simple items. It's a shame because things taste best when the food is still hot, but the catfish was already cold once they brought out all the small dishes that came with the main dish. Because the staff was moving so slowly, we ended up walking to the counter (6 times) just to follow up on things that should have been brought to us without asking. It honestly felt like we were serving ourselves. There should be no excuse why service was so slow because there's two waitress and only one other table. The Vietnamese coffee tasted sickly sweet and burnt. After taking one sip, I asked to switch to a Thai tea, hoping it would be better, but that drink was also extremely sickenly sweet. I returned it after one sip as well. I was surprised to see that I was charged for both drinks and was told it was because I drank them, which did not feel fair at all. They even charged us for the lemon slices.

The firecracker wings drenched in the spicy sauce was so good, we kept dipping some of our kids fries in the sauce! Lastly the Crispy Rice dish with filet, WOW!

The place is very clean inside, nicely decorated, and had background music playing (I hate places that are dead silent). A nice spot for me and my girlfriend to enjoy our lunch and talk over a bowl of pho. I was intrigued by the veggie pho because they used baby corn, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and asparagus. I don't really like vegetable broth so I asked if the broth could be their beef broth which they said was ok. My girlfriend had the chicken pho like she usually does and we shared a spring roll. I have to say that I was blown away with how delicious my pho was. It had such a nice clean beef flavor that you love when enjoying pho. The vegetables worked incredibly, but I' sure any of their beef options are stellar (I just wanted veggies). No doubt one of the more memorable broths that's I've had in a long time! My girlfriend's pho was also super flavorful and had a nice aroma as well. She ended up eating all the broth and had a bunch of leftover noodles and chicken. I would really recommend not serving the chicken diced in cubes because you can't get those nice chopsticks full of noodles and chicken. The roll we ordered was good, but probably not something I'd get again. They use filet mignon for it, but I think I would prefer to have them use a less expensive cut and give me 2X the meat. Finally our server Enrique was cool and very attentive and let us know about their Sunday pho special which was great. This place might not be as traditional as the other places where you see the entire family working and have the beat up menus, but it's they definitely make pho worth checking out for yourself.

I wanted to just chill and take my time to eat, but the server never came back again for me to order another drink so I decided I should just get out then since they didn't want me there long it seemed let's start off with the food review tho my spring rolls tasted off like there was something a bit funky with them, as well as how to frozen texture on the inside and I was given the smallest amount of fish sauce I've ever seen every other place. I've been to is a huge amount or like a generous amount of that sauce dividend but I got like barely anything so I was like trying to scoop it at the end, but yeah, definitely funky tasting rolls. The pho itself consisted mostly of noodles and a decent amount of meat at least but with the combination, I felt like the tendon they just gave the biggest chunks possible, which were extremely hard to try to bite through unusual for me to come across I love tripe and tendon the most in the combos, the regular size is generously sized tho no need to pay extra for a larger size unless you're really hungry the flavor of the broth tasted good nothing special but it was a alright meal prob won't come back but I don't think it was entirely a waste of time
