    Different meats for bun Bo hue plus onions and pork hock
    Charli V.

    Okay just wanted to update my review cause I went ahead and ordered that 10 bowl party pot for my gathering! It was so seamless to order, pick up, and serve! The pot included herbs, veggies, and all the meats were separated. After tax I paid $140.xx plus a $20 bill to use their pot. I just brought it home and dumped each individual container into the pot and warmed it up. The noodles needed to be parboiled to achieve the bouncy softness but other than that my guests were amazed.

    Combination fried rice with beef!

    One of my favorite pho spots in North Austin. Never overcrowded and service is pretty quick!y The pho is delicious and always flavorful. The regular bowl is more than enough for me. On my recent visit, I tried a new dish (honey Siracha chicken) and it didn't come close to their pho. Also, the portion was a little small for the price. The restaurant is always pretty clean. There's no host so seating could be confusing for a new guest (just sit at any open table). They're still at the top of my list for pho!

    Service seems to be hit or miss however the food is what brings me back. Pho is about the broth and they got a good broth. Place is clean and it's nice to just sit and enjoy your food. I'd recommend this spot to anyone.

    BBH Spicy Beef and Pork Noodles Soup

    My dad & kids love coming here for lunch literally our only and favorite pho spot! I try coming here a least once a week I can never go wrong with their food. And the staff always so attentive and gets my order right

    Condiments and napkins in a bag was not a favorite.

    Found a new Vietnamese restaurant nearby that we hadn't seen in all of our travels here and there. The restaurant is in a small strip center and has about 15 tables and a good looking menu! We ordered a spring roll appetizer and made sure they knew I was allergic to shrimp so we got the pork spring rolls. We both liked them except they were somewhat 'loose' so you lost stuff each time you dipped. Not a deal breaker here, because it was so good, but hey, tighten up those rolls guys! Now, I'm always looking for a good bowl of Bun Bo Hue when I try out a new Viet restaurant so was excited when I saw it on the menu (listed as BBH). Unlike other soup offerings it was only offered in one size but the photos they had of it were appealing. Of course, being Anglo, I had to ask if it comes with 'everything' meaning, pork feet, pork blood, etc. Yes, it had 'everything' except for the pork blood, but I ordered it anyway. So my positives are that the soup had a really good taste to it, very solid and the bowl was full of stuff, especially the pork foot and other proteins. The broth wasn't too spicy and wasn't so hot that by the time you can eat your meal your dining partner is finished. But I really have to protest about receiving my condiments in a plastic bag! I'd really much rather them put all of the veggie condiments on a plate like everyone else does. It made it very difficult for me to pick out stuff from the bag (I like more of this but maybe less of that). Still, trying to dig at the bottom of the bag for stuff was messy and not every easy. Plus, I like to grab a hand full of bean sprouts and break them in half when they're on a plate but you really can't do that here. Next time I'll ask for that to come on a plate. The other minor detail is they give you a couple of napkins tucked into that plastic bag with your condiments. Hey, I'm eating soup! Just put a napkin holder on each table please! Still, we really enjoyed or meal, it was very good and we will definitely be back to try other menu items.

    Vegetable Fried rice. Tasted rotten

    Not only the Food quality is low and taste bad, the service is horrible. I waited for my check for 20min and they still kept ignoring me

    A05. Firecracker Shrimp (6 pcs) / Ch Gi Cun T P11. Chicken Noodles Soup
    Joelle T.

    Nomnomnom!! Pho is always fresh and flavorful! I decided to try the firecracker shrimp app-recommended with sweet & sour sauce.

    Delicious Pho
    Leia G.

    The service here was amazing! Our waitress was very attentive and kept checking in on me and my friends to see if we needed anything. I'm very picky with my Pho broth and this has to be one of the best broths I've tried! The portions are huge for the price I would highly recommend. The only reason this isn't a 5 star review is because noodles were soggy :(

    Top to bottom: Egg Rolls, Com Thit Nuong with Egg Rolls
    Christina H.

    We ordered the Rice Plate with Egg Rolls & Grilled Pork (C5), EggRolls (A1), and the Pho Tai (P1). Not sure if we were ravenous or if Pho Phi is just that amazing, but we scarfed down our meal within a matter of minutes. The C5's pork was actually sweeter than salty, which is uncommon for this dish.Though different, it was still great. The broth in the pho was amazing, so homey and flavorful. However, they skimp on the beef! Will definitely return to try other dishes!

    P09. Brisket and Tendon Noodles Soup
    Melodie M.

    Food was just alright.. I ordered a small brisket and tendon pho but they only gave me one piece of tendon??? My husband ordered the large pho dac biet and it was just ok as well... The portions were pretty big but lacked flavor.

    Alan H.

    Nothing like Phở on a cold Austin Day! I ordered the bún bó huê' which was pretty good, it wasn't as spicy as it should have been. It is almost authentic Vietnamese cuisine minus the blood pork jello goodness! This place is taking COVID seriously and have utensils individual wrapped which is a great thing. I would consider coming back again to give other dishes a try.

There were water, bowls, utensils, and sauces in the lobby for anyone to grab, which was nice. We ordered their cucumber salad, beef noodle soup, and lamb noodle soup. Cucumber salad was 2/5. It wasn't the authentic smashed cucumber salad, the flavor was missing something, and I mean, for $7 or $8, you would think it would be amazing....it's not. Pretty disappointing, I'd much rather have my sister's over these. Beef noodle soup was meh. Nothing special. Broth was very simple, like they just added salt and that's it. Meat was cooked very well. My soup came with 1 piece of lettuce, weird.. Lamb noodle soup was the same as the beef noodle soup; it did come with the black fungus, seaweed, tofu, and some vermicelli clear noodles, along with their handmade noodles. Made sense why it was only $13.95 for the noodle soups. It's reasonably priced probably due to not being authentic, though, I wouldn't pay more than $10. They had handmade noodles, which many people do like. However, their noodles were very bland, along with their soup. I didn't find anything special here either. Maybe I'll get their dumplings or fried noodles the next time we come, but it's a no for me.

The beef pieces are super tender and the texture of the hand-pulled noodles gets me every time! We wanted to try a couple of new items so we ordered their version of the beef scallion pancake role and it was surprisingly refreshing with the generous amount of cucumber slices while still maintaining a crispy, airy crunch and just the right amount of savory hoisin flavor -- paired nicely with the noodles! The Pan Fried Pork & Shrimp Buns surprisingly contained a surplus of soup even though the bottoms were perfectly pan fried. Please watch out when you take the first bite because soup went bursting out the other end with one of the buns LOL. You don't need a side of sauce for the buns because the meat and soup are flavorful enough. Overall, I couldn't be more satisfied with the meal and already looking forward to the next visit! :)

The…read moreThai basil leaves were absolutely ginormous, and they gave us plenty of them alongside very fresh limes, which I appreciated. The bowl itself came loaded with meat--they definitely weren't skimping to save money here. The meat-to-noodle ratio felt great, and every bite actually had substance instead of leaving me fishing around for toppings. As for the broth, I landed somewhere in the middle. It wasn't quite as clear or light as I personally prefer, leaning toward a fattier, milkier undertone that almost reminded me of a Vietnamese pho take on tonkotsu. The flavor itself was undeniably very good, but the richness may have been a bit too much for me personally. One way I usually judge how much I love a pho broth is whether I want to sip the bowl down to the very end, and this one wasn't quite light enough for me to want to do that. I've had richer and deeper pho flavors elsewhere, but I still appreciated the flavor profile here and could absolutely see why this place is so popular. It feels hearty, comforting, and satisfying in a way that clearly resonates with many people. Despite how packed the restaurant was, the atmosphere ended up being surprisingly pleasant. Service moved very quickly, which honestly impressed me given how busy everything felt. Even with the crowd, I didn't dislike the spacing or setup at all--the restaurant still felt comfortable, and the sound of people enjoying their food all around added to the lively, welcoming energy rather than making it feel overwhelming. Overall, Pho Phong Lưu ended up being one of those places where I completely understood the hype, even if it didn't become my personal favorite pho spot. While the broth leaned richer than my preference, I still enjoyed the experience and definitely look forward to trying other dishes next time.

    After landing in San Antonio yesterday to kick off my summer vacation, the very first thing I did…read moretoday was ask my friend to bring me back to this restaurant. The reason is simple: we ate here two years ago, and it left such a great impression on us that we had been looking forward to coming back ever since. Fortunately, not much has changed in terms of either the quality or the overall presentation of the food. Everything is still delicious, especially the Pho Combo. To be honest, it's far better than most of the pho we've had in Germany. That doesn't mean the pho in Germany is bad--it simply means this place matches my personal taste much better. As for the downsides, they're almost exactly the same as before. Parking is still a major challenge, and I understand that's probably not something the restaurant can easily fix. We also tried calling ahead to reserve a table, but they don't take reservations, whether you're coming with a group of 5-7 people or just 2-3 people. We arrived at 6:45 PM and still had to wait about 40 minutes before being seated, which was honestly quite inconvenient. Coincidentally, there was live music tonight, which was a nice surprise. Unfortunately, the sound system wasn't very good, so it was difficult to hear what the singers were performing. Then again, this isn't really the type of venue where people come specifically to enjoy live music, so most diners didn't seem to pay much attention to it. One thing I did notice was that either the kitchen has made a few changes over the past two years, or perhaps my own taste has changed a little. The food felt slightly saltier than I remembered, and the pho broth was richer and creamier. While that added some depth of flavor, it was a bit too rich for my liking, to the point where finishing the entire bowl of broth felt a little overwhelming. The braised short ribs were incredibly tender--so tender that a knife was almost unnecessary, and they could easily be pulled apart with just a fork. While many people would probably see that as a positive, I actually missed the slightly firmer, meatier texture I remembered from my last visit. That said, these are relatively minor issues. The quality may have dipped just a little compared to our previous visit, but this is still an excellent restaurant. If they can fine-tune those small details, it would easily return to being one of my favorite places. There's a good chance we'll stop by one more time before heading back to Germany.

    Is it that time of year for another 1618 update? Absolutely…read more After my umpteenth visit, I think it's safe to say I've worked my way through almost the entire menu (minus a few noodle, chicken & vegetarian dishes). My 2025 review still stands, but after so many visits, I've noticed a few items haven't been good as they used to, particularly the chicken wings (and yes, all three of them). The Garlic Wings haven't been hitting quite the same. They've started to taste a little dry, and the saucier wings taste better the next day since they don't have time to steep through once served. The Filet Mignon Pepper Steak is still my favorite dish on the menu, but I still can't justify ordering it family-style anymore. It's delicious, but the portion just doesn't match the price. One of the newest additions--the Truffle Fried Rice is spectacular. It's light, not overpowering with truffle, and the fish eggs really adds the perfect little pop of texture/flavor. I don't think I breathed the entire time I scarfed it down!! 1618 is still one of my favorite restaurants in Austin of all time, but I think it's time for the menu to elevate a bit and dive deeper into less mainstream Asian cuisine. If anyone can do it, 1618 can.
