    The ox tail beef pho is to die for! The wait time isn't bad and you could take a walk the market in the mean time. Plenty of seating near by. Spring rolls were yummy. The pho is smaller than most places but it doesn't lack on flavor at all.

    Food: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Location: 5/5 Price: 3/5 For a city that is not very diverse, it is hard pressed to find good asian cuisine. But I'm happy to report that this Pho is pretty authentic. As a visitor I came back multiple times just because it is good compared anything else. It looks like they are family fun and it shows. Located in the 3rd St market, it has plenty of seating all around. But as a downside of being in downtown is of course the price is pretty expensive. $20 for a medium sized bowl of pho that would be closer to $13 in a diverse location like on the east coast. I tried their signature MKE pho with the ox tail and with the beef rib. I say go for the beef rib. You get more meat. I also tried their wagyu pho. This we eh. It's basically the same price as their signature but with a lot less meat. The wagyu isn't from Japan but the marbling was still good. But I think wagyu is best enjoyed by itself grill and not in soup. I will say that their broth is a bit sweet. So as much as I love to drink the broth, I just couldn't because it felt like aside from the juices from the cow, they added something else. I also tried their thai iced tea. But it was wayyy too sweet. So my recommendation is get their signature MKE pho with the beef rib.

    Yum!! This is one of the many food stalls within Milwaukee's Third St Market Hall which is conveniently attached to the Milwaukee Courtyard Downtown! This is not just a food hall, but there's plenty of games like shuffleboard, wii, and more! There's plenty of self serve seating everywhere. You order with the cashier, then they give you a small shaker device that will vibrate when your order is ready. I got the pho dac biet, which includes beef brisket, rare eye of round, beef meatballs, beef tendon, and beef tripe!! Basically their combo pho. For being in a plastic bowl and in a food hall, I actually loved this! Or maybe I was really hungry... The broth was quite flavorful and adding a dash of lime and their spicy chili garlic paste made it even better! It comes with sriracha, hoisin sauce, and spicy chili garlic oil - but I didn't use any of that lol. Apparently the broth is constructed with 10 hours of brewing minimum, so the flavors are rich. I love the generosity with the many different types of beef, and the raw bean sprouts added such a nice crunch.

    $20 for a bowl of pho? I guess it's the price you pay if you're traveling and just want something easy on the stomach. We got it to-go and ate in our hotel. The broth stays warm enough as a soup but not hot enough to cook the raw meat if you're serving to a kid. The serving is kinda small to me but it worked out because I wasn't too hungry that night. The broth is on the salty side. I added more water but still left feeling super thirsty the rest of night. It wasn't the greatest broth, but it wasn't the worst, but it was definitely salty. The guy working there is solo but still managed to be friendly to customers though, so can't get too mad about it.

    Rib Pho

    Rib pho was excellent. There were meatballs and brisket as well. The portion size was typical however at $18, it was pricier than other pho places in the Milwaukee area. The location in 3rd St. Market Hall is convenient since there are many other food options available.

    Delicious pho, as authentic as you can get from a market. This place deserves more 5stat reviews. It comes with condiments like fresh basil, bean sprouts, sate chili oil, siracha, & hoisin. We got the pho dac biet (special combo pho). Will be back for more when we are in the area. Bottled water is only $1.50!

    Very flavorful Bahn Mi. Bread was soft and held up well. The pork and vegetables were flavored perfectly. The service at the counter was fast and friendly. We took our food and found chairs near the self serve beer wall to enjoy this beautiful sandwich.

    I eat a lot of Pho and this is some of the best. Oxtail is perfectly cooked. Presentation is spot on. For a food court, this Pho is as good as it gets.

    Inside the 3rd st. Market Hall. The staff was friendly, helpful and welcoming. The noodles and broth were amazing. Didn't have to wait a long time to get the food. Very yummy.

Had a bad day yesterday so today... Noodles! Not much can cure a case of the blues like a hot pile of steaming noodles. Ok, maybe some soup dumplings can top the noodles. On our way out to Seven Bridges for a quick walk outside, we stopped in here and fell in love. The 5 spice old fashioned and the apricot whisky sour were both phenomenal in their own unique ways. Then came the soup dumplings. Yum! Steaming hot and a project to eat properly, they are worth the efforts. We ordered the Tom Yum and spicy Korean noodles. The spice on the noodles was mild but it does build on your palette the longer that you eat. The beef was perfectly tender. The soup was wonderfully lemon-grassy and full of flavor. The ladies that sat next to us just ordered a table full of dumplings. I think that's my plan for next time. May it be soon.

I got the grilled pork banh mi with a cup of broth (~1/2 quart, $5) with a Vietnamese iced coffee. Sandwich was good, but it wasn't very big for $10. The meat, which was good I was expecting to be pieces of grilled meat, was very sparse and very thin, like bulgogi. The broth was pretty sweet instead of savory and likely already pre-seasoned with hoisin. In terms of service, I had placed my order first. Sandwich with the coffee. My partner said he'll have the same thing. I confirmed to make sure that was also including the ice coffee, and the person that took our order said yes. We waited for a while for our order (highly recommend ordering online, we just saw different prices on their website vs online ordering service, so we thought we'd just wait to order in person), then she forgot our iced coffees. We waited some more. She only brought out one. She said oh sorry, I only rang you up for one. So we waited some more. At that point I thought she would just let us have the coffee on the house, but she did indeed ring us up. We were probably in and out with our to-go order in about 40 minutes. All in all, I'd go back for the iced coffees if I was in the area because they were good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go back.

The shrimp paste is traditionally served with this dish so that you can add it to the broth to enhance the flavor. This broth was already so rich and delicious, and the shrimp paste made it better. The chicken fried rice was also pretty good. Chicken was juicy and rice wasn't overly salty. I know a lot of places like these aren't known for service. However, this time it was actually not bad. They refilled our glasses multiple times throughout our meal. Also, they haven't changed their prices (for not at least), so the costs now are actually average compared to other restaurants in the area with the same cuisine. I'm glad I gave this place another try! I'll definitely be back to try some other items on their menu.

It's located kind of standalone and the seating appears like a food hall. But it's a decent spot for Pho
