    Drink and appetizer menu
    Sylvia C.

    Miss home Asian food while visiting Yosemite. The kiddo was craving pho and we found this place on the way home. Thank you yelp family for the recommendation! Noticed a fellow yelper and old friend who made a stop here as well a few yrs ago. So cant say no to that! Food was delicious and authentic! It is limited to what Im used to but completely understands due to the area and preferences of the community. Most important is the main items are good. Let say it was good enough I wished I had more. Almost ordered for seconds! Got #1 plus bone marrow and #41 pork chop with eggs rice plate. Then topped it off with Vietnamese coffee for the long drive home. I barely drank half and feel the jitters already so drink in sips, people! Then again I recently cut back on coffee which doesn't help but you have been warned if you don't drink coffee routinely. What stood out extra was the amazing customer service. It's family owned and operated and we felt at home as if we were their home guest! They were extremely attentive and checked on us very often.

    I walked in to place a take-out order an hour before closing and to my surprise my order came out in under 10 minutes! I cannot remember a time where the service, food, and ambiance is not up to par here!!! I am never disappointed and know every time I stop by, my pho WILL hit the spot :-) Thank you Pho Phuong Nine Restaurant for being the only place in town that hasn't disappointed me. Still the best pho spot in the 559.

    Beef and veggie pho...so delicious!

    Was on our way home from Yosemite and stopped in to grab a quick meal. So glad we did! The two guys working were so friendly and attentive, awesome service! The restaurant is a little snug, but cute.Pho came out in good time and was cooked to perfection! The veggie pho was so yummy! Broth was seasoned well and noodles cooked to perfection, it was perfect with just a squeeze of lime! My fiancé loved his pho as well. Very happy customers, hope we can come back some day!

    I've found a pho that breaks my heart (because I don't live in Fresno and can't have this pho every day for the rest of my life.) This pho has a deep, rich, and flavorful broth, with a generous amount of meat. Our server encouraged us to melt some of the marrow into the broth, resulting in a silky and decadent soup. It is easily one of the best phos I've had in America, hands down. All of the staff is super friendly, and I never felt like I was waiting for too long to put in an order or get a refill. The ambiance is what you expect from a typical pho spot - no frills, just damn good food. I'll be dreaming of this spot phoever.

    #1 - Dac Biet Xe Lua
    Andrew K.

    Arguably the best pho house in Fresno, distinguished by exceptional food quality, a welcoming atmosphere, and an outstanding overall experience. Only one other restaurant--the original Nho Kitchen on East McKinley Avenue--comes close in matching the rich, deeply savory broth and tender meats of their signature beef noodle soup. Both are levels above any other pho I have tried in the county. This Vietnamese family-owned restaurant is located on the northeast corner of East Cesar Chavez and South Winery Avenues in the Asian Village Shopping Center. It is a small but very popular spot with seating for about 40 people, and there is usually a line waiting to be seated--a clear sign of how well-loved it is. I ordered the #1 Dac Biet Xe Lua, a large bowl of traditional Vietnamese beef noodle soup with rare steak, well-done brisket, flank steak, tripe, and meatballs. The heart of any great bowl of pho is the broth, and this one truly shines. It was rich, clear, and beautifully balanced, with a deep beefy flavor and subtle notes of ginger, onion, star anise, cinnamon, and coriander. The depth and umami come from beef bones simmered for hours, resulting in a clean, non-greasy broth that allows the aromatics to stand out. The texture was distinctively gelatinous and luxurious--something most pho houses in town simply cannot replicate. It honestly felt like sipping liquid gold. The meats were fresh, tender, plentiful, and generously portioned. The rice noodles were perfectly cooked, with the ideal ratio of noodles, broth, and meat. Fresh bean sprouts, lime, basil, and sliced jalapeños completed the bowl, creating a savory, comforting, and well-balanced experience. Everything was served piping hot, which enhanced the aroma and released the full bouquet of spices. The pho here compares favorably to some of the best pho houses in Orange County's Little Saigon. I also tried the gỏi cuốn (Vietnamese fresh spring rolls), which were well-sized, fresh, and springy. They were filled with plump shrimp, succulent pork, rice noodles, herbs, and vegetables. The flavors were clean and vibrant, the textures well-balanced, and the presentation colorful and appetizing. The service deserves special recognition. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly welcomed by the entire staff. Their friendliness, professionalism, and attentiveness were exceptional--service quality you would expect from a high-end restaurant, not a modest pho house. Servers constantly monitored the dining room, ensuring water glasses were full and checking on guests without being intrusive. The food arrived quickly, tables were promptly cleared, and the restaurant was spotless throughout my visit. It was clear that cleanliness and efficiency are top priorities. Many who dine here are regulars and I see why. The staff remembers faces and orders, and made me feel like a valued guest right away. Being a family-run restaurant, everyone is knowledgeable about the menu and happy to offer recommendations. I asked about their popular bone marrow dish, which uses the same marrow that gives the broth its incredible richness. A server kindly brought me a complimentary sampler--an above-and-beyond gesture that made my experience even more memorable. Served dramatically with massive bones and a steak knife, the marrow was rich, sweet, buttery, and incredibly creamy. You can enjoy it on its own or scoop it directly into the hot broth for a decadent, flavor-packed upgrade. I have officially found my go-to pho spot. The food is outstanding, the service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The pride the staff takes in their work and dishes is evident in every detail. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable. A large bowl of pho, fresh spring rolls, and a generous tip came out to just $24. This is my top recommendation in Fresno for authentic, high-quality pho paired with friendly service and excellent customer care.

    House special

    If you're looking for one of the best bowls of pho in Fresno, Pho Phuong Nine is absolutely worth the visit. The House Special Pho is the star of the menu. The broth is rich, aromatic, and slow-simmered with deep beef flavor without being overly salty. Every spoonful tastes clean and comforting. The bowl is generously loaded with a variety of meats, including rare steak, brisket, tendon, tripe, and meatballs, all served with fresh rice noodles. Add the fresh bean sprouts, basil, lime, and jalapeños, and the flavors come together perfectly. It's the kind of pho that keeps you coming back. The restaurant is especially known for its flavorful broth and generous portions. Pho Phuong Nine Restaurant The Thai Tea is an excellent companion to the meal. It's creamy, smooth, and refreshing, with just the right balance of sweetness and robust tea flavor. Unlike many overly sweet versions, this one complements the richness of the pho without overpowering it. Many customers specifically praise their house-brewed Thai tea.

    Pho Tai Nam no onions ($13)

    As a Vietnamese-American, this restaurant is probably our top favorite pho restaurant in Fresno. Since moving to Fresno earlier this year, my fiancé and I have tried a number of Vietnamese restaurants. In terms of flavor, authenticity, and cost, this one is the best. Upon walking in, we were greeted with a warm welcome. This seems to be a family establishment and from hearing the staff speak, Vietnamese-owned. The menu consists of several dishes that all sounded very good. However, we ordered the pho and were very surprised to how good it was. The broth had a great, dense flavor and not overpowered from the aromatics nor too much MSG. It was a great size and the noodles were cooked well. The vegetables provided were fresh as well. Besides the taste, the price is what really makes this place competitive. The price was very reasonable and lower than the majority of other pho restaurants. The amount of food was good and completely surprised us. We'll definitely be back.

    The pho broth is phenomenal! You don't need to even add anything. The service is great and amazing, they are always checking up on you and making sure everything is good and asking if we need refills. Our waitress even gave us raw onions and jalapeños on the side to make a dipping mixture to eat with our pho. I believe I order the number 3 which comes with mostly all the meats, I substituted my pho noodles for egg noodles and added Vietnamese ham. We got a bowl of bone morrow and omg the tendon and the meat surrounding it with the richness on the marrow is so delicious, you don't need to add on anything else just get the bone marrow and a meatball pho and call it a day! So good. The egg soda was great and their Thai tea. I like how they have shrimp paste and Thai chili as well. 10/10!

    Number 12 add shrimp with side of bone marrow
    Madison B.

    Solid pho and friendly fast service. We got the 12 which just has the steak and add shrimp and the broth was perfect, you don't need to add too much in. The side of bone marrow was also a nice addition too! Highly recommend coming here!

    Pho #1 large
    Nancy V.

    Located in a busy Plaza with ample parking lot. Came into town and wanted to give this place a try. Ordered #1 beef combo pho which had plenty of meat and side order of bone marrow. Made my dip sauce of hoison sauce and sracha with chili oil to dip the meat with. However, the star of the show was this bone! Its a must order in my opinion. Delicious meat with soft tendon and fatty marrow inside. I had Two large bones in my side order and my brother had 3. I've never seen such humongous bones before and plenty too, usually ones in Sac is smaller and your handed just one. It was a surprising nice touch to the meal. Add some Sriracha hot sauce with the marrow and it's simply chefs kiss. Staff was friendly and came by to check often. The ambiance is better for group of 4-6 ppl, but I'm sure 8 settings is doable. I wouldn't mind cming again if I'm in the area.

    Medium size #5.  Rare steak, flank, tripe, tendon, brisket.
    Angelo B.

    This place serves some of the best Pho I've had in town. Their Pho is flavorful, and the broth is made fresh and taste very authentic and clearly is made fresh every day. The portions are generous with lots of meat, food, and seafood options to choose from. The restaurant has always busy even though the dining area is on the small side, but it's absolutely worth the weight. If you're going for the full experience, you need to try the bone marrow, it is a must. They also offer a variety of teas and smoothies, which are perfect to pair with your meal.

    We were looking for a new pho spot because our usual place changed owners and we hadn't been satisfied the past couple times. We found Pho Phuong Nine and were greeted as soon as we walked in and they were ready to take our order within minutes. Our drinks and main dishes came out super fast. The spring rolls took a while to come out but they were really good! This place is farther from our house but it's worth the drive. There was a homey feel with regulars coming in and the owners knew them. We'll definitely be back soon!

    Wanted to give this place a shot because it's close to my new work place and really enjoy it!…read more It's attached to the Tea Shop, which you have to walk through first to get to the restaurant. You'll then have to wait to be seated at the register. I think this set-up is kind of awkward but hey, at least they have cute sidewalk seating. There are plenty of tables and long benches to sit at and the restaurant itself feels clean and well-lit! The staff are super helpful also. Tried the House Special Beef Pho and it was pretty tasty! You do have the option to order your dish with regular thin noodles, flat noodles, or egg noodles. The broth is basil-y and the flavor has great depth. They have a self-serve station for condiments where you can grab some chili oil, jalapeños, bean sprouts, and lime. My favorite thing about this restaurant is that I don't feel too bloated after eating here (compared to other pho restaurants). Been enjoying this restaurant and eating here at least once a week!

    It's been a minute since I've been back here... I heard they remodeled? But idk what changed lmao I…read moreguess it's been that long since my last visit (it hasn't been a full year yet, fyi). My memory is shot. I don't want to be handing out 5 stars so easily but I think they deserve it. The restaurant is very clean, and I love the little Asian lanterns they have, all different, above each table. Plenty of seating. When we got there (a little after 5), there was only one other table occupied... by the time we left (6:30), every table was nearly taken. Our waitress, as well as the other on the floor, were both very welcoming and friendly. They handled the service remarkably as a team. The fact that they were a packed house and still were very attentive with us, checking how we're doing, checking on our water refills... these are the little things I appreciate most (and, of course, good food). I got the Pho with the Fatty Brisket, my friend got just the Steak Pho. They have a bar against the wall with all garnishes you may need to grab what you'd like. This is pretty smart... It saves them from waste. Instead of giving people items they may not use-- they would just grab what they'd like themselves. My friend grabbed her goodies, I prefer mine as is. To me, if your broth is good and doesn't require me to flavor it... I'll eat it just like that (unless I feel like adding spice). I've only ever been to a few other Pho places where I had to season up the broth myself...definite no no for them. All my friends who have gone out to eat Pho with me know I eat it just how I get it. Pho from my Mama is a different story though... I put the works (not because it's not flavorful) but, it's just different. Moving on... They also have a Teazona in their establishment. I've tried a few different drinks in the past but came to regularly deciding on the Tiramisu Milk Tea (no flan for me, light boba). Make sure to shake it well. You can also let them know your preference on the level of sweetness. We both got this tonight and it nearly tipped me over on the full scale. Couldn't finish it. Everything was really good though. Pho was the perfect choice for this weird, gloomy weather we've been having. The price is a bit up there but that seems to be the norm everywhere nowadays. But-- for the portion, the quality, and the service? Worth it.

    Every single visit has been amazing, but what keeps me coming back is their pho... it is hands down…read moreone of the most perfect broths I've ever had. You can taste the depth, richness, and care that goes into it. It's incredibly flavorful without being overpowering, comforting without feeling heavy, and perfectly balanced every single time. Seriously, this is the kind of pho you crave constantly after trying it once. Their pork belly banh mi is honestly my favorite in the world!!! The pork belly is perfectly tender with just the right amount of crispiness, the bread is fresh and crunchy, and all the flavors come together perfectly. I've tried banh mi from so many places and nothing compares to this one. The dipping sauce ! Are you kidding me?!! And the ban xeo? Absolutely to die for. Crispy, savory, packed with flavor, and paired with fresh herbs and dipping sauce that take it to another level. Every bite is perfection. On top of the incredible food, the atmosphere is modern, welcoming, and comfortable. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and genuinely makes you feel taken care of. The owner walks around and greets all the guests, like who does that! They make you feel like family. They also have a full bar, which is such a great bonus, and their lychee drink is my personal favorite! It's refreshing, delicious, and the perfect pairing with the meal. Phoever is easily one of my favorite restaurants in the Fresno area and I recommend it to everyone I know.

    Easily the best Pho broth in Fresno/Clovis or in general. 5/5 for me…read more First Impressions: Great looking restaurant in a pretty nice location in Clovis. One of the few to have an open bar as well. I ordered the 2nd option Pho on the menu along with an iced Vietnamese coffee which plus tip, came out to $36. Food: Their Pho broth is one of the best I've had. I've eaten at many places in the Bay Area and Orange County and this one wins hands down. Broth had the right amount of saltiness where I didn't need to add much. And you can actually taste the spices which I'm pretty huge on. Big flavor bomb indeed. Cons: My only knock is skimming on the noodles and meat. For $18, you do pay a little higher than most places. I'd definitely pay that for the quality alone but felt shorted. Customers are smart, they pick up on things all the time. I just wish this was improved and this place easily gets a 5 star. Definitely will be one of my new go to places for Pho in town!
