This 5 star rating is strictly for the food itself. THE PHO CANNOT COMPARE TO THE BLAND BROTH/SOUP FROM THOSE CHAIN PHO RESTAURANTS (pho tai, what the pho etc..) The broth is whats most important, their broth is just right in all ways, the right amount of oils/fat in the soup, the slight darkness in the color of the soup which shows how much taste is in the broth. You can tell how much effort and time is put into making the taste right. The meat portion are okay, the steak meat is always fresh and never tooo thinly sliced. The pho here is outstanding amongst other pho places in Washington that I've tried. This place wont have the most updated tables and chairs and decorations, but that wont stop my fam and i to go here to eat. read more

This was hands down the best Pho I have had. Paul, the owner, truly cares about his customers and his craft. We were brought house specialties and were given the royal treatment from the second we sat down. Plus...there's free ice cream. Who can say no to that. If you're in the area you need to try this place. read more

Amazing! I'm Vietnamese, my mother was born and raised in Vietnam and was taught how to cook authentic pho from her mother, I know true authentic pho. This place is it, the best soup ever! I can easily tell "canned broth" from "fresh bone stock broth from scratch", and this place is all fresh! Amazing pho. This place is not nearly as busy as it should be because it is great! Highly recommended! Free hot tea and a nice quite atmosphere, quick service, and all round great! True authentic pho! Also free ice cream! A lot of people don't know, but once your done eating, there is a freezer in the middle of the restaurant where the owner provides free ice cream cones and a scoop of your choice, he typically has 4 flavors to choose from at a time. Great Pho and great customer service. read more

Food was amazing! I usually go to a pho restaurant in Tacoma, but the overall experience here was better! Servers were attentive and positive the food came out quickly and fresh. The building was clean and we'll maintained. Most of all it was not expensive! Great experience will definitely come again soon! read more

I tried this place because I was starving and my husband raved about if because of how great it is the few times he's had it yearrsssss ago. Walking in, the setting was OK, quiet, we were the only customers in there. I thought the menu was a bit over priced compared to many other Pho places I've been to. Walking to the bathroom, there was a huge mess (chairs were out of place, crumbs and food residue all over the place in that corner). Given that there might have been a large group there prior to us coming in, but I didn't see anyone working on cleaning that up coming in. It was just unappealing. The food was alright, I've had better. The selling point for my husband was the free ice cream you get there, one free scoop per person. I wouldn't go back due to the price and the quality of the Pho. But I'd come back if I was in the area, and is starving without any other options because of the good customer service. They were very friendly. read more

This is second time for this place and turn out very good food and the man (owner) so I will be back

I never leave reviews usually, but i needed to for this place because its just awesome all the way around! I have a Thai food addiction and this hit the spot. Not only was the food great, but as soon as we walked in the door Paul (the one who served us) was able to put a smile on our face which has been a hard thing to do lately. We came and left smiling and laughing. You can tell he highly values his customers! read more

Every year we drive from Portland to Anacortes, WA for the weekend at least twice. I went to school in Olympia, and I have my favorite asian restaurant (Chopsticks) there but they aren't open on Sundays! So I can never stop there on the way home on Sunday. This is likely going to be my new stop every trip. We had lunch there today (Thanksgiving day) on the way north. It being Thanksgiving, we wanted to have an early lunch and they were open at 10 so we decided to give it a shot. YUM! Delicious vegetable pho, cute atmosphere, good prices, friendly staff... Will definitely be coming back again, most likely many times. read more

We love Pho, and we've just stumbled upon our newest find - Pho Saigon! You won't be disappointed, and we'll travel over 45 minutes to experience it again! Absolutely the BEST Pho - fresh and tasty! read more

Best pho south of Seattle period! Free tea and ice cream.. Can't get better then that. And the owner is really friendly and provides the best customer service! read more

I've been eating pho for 20+ years now, now I may only remember the last 15 or so of them, I can definitely say that this place is absolutely hands down THEE best pho restaurant I've ever been to. The best pho, the best service. It's family owned and they make you feel like part of the family. They also have the best Vietnamese sandwiches in town! Oh, and I almost forgot to mention, when you're done with your meal, you get to serve yourself a free scoop of ice cream for desert! Hands down the best, give them a try, you don't be disappointed! :) I've been going for years and nothing else comes close to their amazing food! read more

Excellent pho and very kind and personable owner. I was sick and needed some pho. The pho was amazing and not overly salty. I'll be back for sure! read more

I ordered takeout pho (small) and two grilled pork spring rolls. I live super close so when I got home I was surprised to find the broth was lukewarm. It wasnt able to cook the meat it came with so I had to heat it up on the stove. Portion was pretty big for a small so not too bad. Broth was okay, a bit oily. The spring rolls were pretty long but cold and it tasted okay. The peanut sauce it came with tasted like it was diluted with water - not a thick sauce consistency at all. To top it all off, my total was 17 bucks. This is the second chance I've given this place because of the reviews but both visits were just disappointing. Try at your own risk I guess. read more

It's all in the broth! Discovered this gem today! Thank you Yelpers for the wonderful recommendation. Paul the owner was so wonderful and attentive. I told him what I liked and he made his tasty oxtail pho with lots of other goodies added into his flavorful broth! The fresh pork rolls were very FRESH and tasty - peanut sauce was warmed up for us too! Thank you so much for the lovely lunch Paul! We definitely will make the drive to see you again. read more

Paul has the best broth around! Searched all over and no pho compairs. Great guy too! oh! and you get free icecream after you eat :)

Vegetarian friendly, too many places don't have veggie broth. The staff was so nice and considerate of time as I was on my work lunch ordering to go. More importantly, the Pho is so good and the veggies are fresh and crisp. I think I've found my new favorite Pho restaurant read more

Great food and customer service. Pho was delicious! Felt like a good home cooked meal. Bun Thit Nuong (noodles with grilled pork) was a very generous size and absolutely a must have. My son nearly licked the bowl. Our family just found a new favorite restaurant. read more

Good service, food is delicious, it's definitely a casual setting. The place appears to be clean the tables were clean the windows were clean the floors clean I peaked in the back kitchen it looked pretty clean. Just to mention I enjoyed pho soup. read more

Bahn mi and pho. Not fancy but tasty! Free ice cream. The people remember their customers.

We ordered a small and a large mixed meat pho, very tasty broth and vegetables fresh. Owner was really nice and place was clean. I look forward to going again. read more

Super amazing food , hands down the best pho I've ever had, customer service is just as good as the food . Definitely my new favorite place

I moved here from Texas and I was completely overwhelmed with the amount of pho places that are in this area. This was first place I tried and it didn't disappoint at all. I usually judge places by a second visit. If the food is just as good as the first time, its legit to me. Not to mention the owner is very friendly and personable. read more

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! The owners are great! I love their cold spring rolls with peanut sauce! Their Vietnamese sandwich is awesome! The establishment is a little grimy and the bathrooms are kinda creepy. read more

My boyfriend and I went into Pho Saigon looking for a hot bowl of soup. When we entered the restaurant, the atmosphere was bright and cheery. The food was great and the service was friendly and came to check on how we were doing or whether we needed anything. As we were sitting there, our server asked another table about why they were not eating their egg rolls. One of the girls mentioned that she was allergic to shrimp. The server said they were willing to make special orders for people with allergies. We both thought that was a great thing for him to do as I am one of those people with allergies. read more

Our pork Bahn Mi we split was on the mark damn tasty, we gave it a splash of fish sauce, and the jalapeno peppers were very spicy, didn't taste much pate if at all. I got the beef stew which had both rice noodles and egg noodles, different but welcome. Cuts of meat were exactly what I bet you would get in Saigon, but a lot more. Rough cuts of exactly what it should be. Basil and sprouts were on the light side, but the coffee was tasty. In the hood we'll return. read more

The Pho is great, but costumer service sucks! Old Asian lady is mean and absolutely dont care about you. I asked for a water and it took her 20 min to get it. By that time I was almost done with my meal. read more

Really yummy broth... you can really taste the star anise! Mmmm.. I'm getting so hungry just thinking of their pho!

Food was good. Minus one star for the service, seeing as I was the only person in the entire restaurant and I still had to call them over to order and then walk over with my empty glass to get my water refilled. read more

Great service, owner was very accommodating to special requests. Everyone enjoyed their meal, much better then the one I had in federal way. Free ice cream! Kids really enjoyed it. Will come back here every time I visit. read more

Best broth in town, guys. And try the pork spring rolls. Paul and his crew never disappoint! I love these guys!

This Pho restaurant is amazing. It was honestly my first time having pho, but the flavor of the food was great. The owner, Paul is a great guy and he made our dining experience wonderful. I will try other Pho but they will have a hard time beating my new favorite Pho restaurant. read more

I ordered the #11 Large Pho, which is the combination pho with tripe, tendon, and steak. From the menu, you can see that the price of the large pho is 8.00. However, when I went up to pay for my food, they charged 9.50 for the "mixed meat" price and told me that the Large and Small bowl price is ONLY for the steak pho. How shady is that? You have a small and large size price but it only applies to ONE choice of pho. I've never been to a pho place where I was charged a different price because there was more than 1 type of meat in it(which was very sparse as well) and the menu seemed extremely sus. Beware. read more

Pho was good but the bbq chicken and rice dish was horrible. The rice looked like it was 2 days old and the amont of chicken you get in addition to the lack of flavor was not worth $9.00 imo. The fried egg rolls were also bland. The restaurant itself looked and smelled on the dirty side. I gave it a try based on the high reviews of others but now having experienced it for myself -- I will never go back. read more

Found this place by fellow Yelpers, and my car navigation which was very convenient when I wanted Vietnamese and was shopping in Federal Way. Ordered the Bahn Mi sandwich with pork, and the recommended house Spec fried rice in other Yelp reviews, complimentary tea was served (not very hot). Recycled Sriracha bottles contain various condiments: sugar, hoisin, a spicier chunky red chile garlic sauce, and yes, Sriracha sauce itself. The sandwich had plenty of garlicky sweet chopped pork with some Hoisin flavor, the requisite pickled vegs, and jalapeno on a nicely warmed French roll. The rice had thinly sliced Chinese-style sausage, and annoying bay shrimp, and teh purchased diced carrot/frozen pea blend. I should have ordered a Vietnamese broken rice dish rice instead. Decent enough, I would come back, if in the area, but not make a special trip . One cute touch--they offer a make it yourself ice cream cone--my problem with that is you have many unclean hands handling the ice cream scoop and so on. I am sure the King County Health Dept. would not allow this. Note: be careful eating--my dish was badly chipped read more

Pho Saigon - House fried rice and bahn mi sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - Kent, Washington

Dank food. Fast service. Nice people. Definitely a place to sit down for a quick bite and grub till your hearts content!

Best pho around! Paul (owner) is also the sweetest, most accommodating restaurant owner in the area. Pho Saigon has the best broth in the area hands down, which is obviously the best part of pho. read more

BEST PHO I'VE HAD. Service is amazing and the owner Paul took care of us. Try the pho with oxtail you won't regret it.

My bowl of pho was mediocre and the service was non-existant. Would not recommend. Had to chase down a waiter twice for a simple glass of water and refill. Also, I did not get any scoop of free ice cream. Not sure what the other reviews were about read more

Paul, the owner has an amazing customer service. Very friendly and professional. He loves kids and gives them a free ice cream! Pho was very good and the broth was very tasty. I've been to many Vietnamese restaurants and I gotta be honest, this place has the best Pho I've ever had. Highly recommended. read more

This place is wonderful. I got the noodle bowl, my usual, and my lady got the pho. I usually don't like pho, but the broth was amazing!!! Great stop on our way back to gig harbor from the airport. read more
