Pho Tan - #14 dish - Vietnamese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

AMAZING PLACE!! Don't let the outside of this building scare you, service it's really amazing, server who assist us was really nice and attentive, the food quality and taste.... 100000/10 my girl totally loved the fried dumplings, maybe because there were crunchy and special sauce was GAS .. we also ordered spring rolls but no pics of that you can guess why . Meat house pho was incredible my girl love it and I tried it... 1000/10 but the fish one OH LA LAAAAAAA.. I went with that choice because meat ones are the most tasty as always so it's weird that you could get a bad meat pho.. but fish ones NOT EVERYONE DOES IT RIGHT! And I totally love the flavor of this pho's. Most important part, PRICES ARE INCREDIBLE! 2 phos, 2 appetizer and 2 drinks.... 56$? Any other place 70$ easy! Def this it's an amazing place! read more

Service was good. But the pho was over salted. First time I couldn't eat a broth. Their tap water tasted awfully. Bahn mi was sooo dryyyy I'm still chugging water to compensate for the salt overload, even though I didn't even finish the bowl. Very disappointing, came here based on the reviews. read more

Great Pho!!! The broth is tasty. And I love their spring rolls and their prices are great.

The flavors are amazing and I have always done take out with the rare beef p h o and never been disappointed

Amazing pho!!! Like definitely not in a great area. In a rundown shopping center, but like let me tell you the food phenomenal. I had the vegetarian pho. It was so good so flavorful so fresh. read more

My family and I recently went to this restaurant based on the high reviews and it did not disappoint. The pho was amazing. It was rich, comforting, and very nostalgic. The other 2 rice dishes were also great but I believe the highlights are definitely the soup options. Each portions were LARGE. Would definitely recommend and be coming back every time I have a pho craving or when I'm feeling sick. read more

This pho place was recommended by my wife. Since we are in the area, we decided to have the lunch here. She has good experience with them. But her revisit show that they are not improving and actually feel they take a step back. We got the skirt steak rice dish. The steak is not soft and tender. The sauce is good. At least this dish is good. The second dish is the tan special pho. The pho base is a bit American taste. The meat is quantity is average less. Overall the price is a bit more expensive compared to the demographic that can afford. read more

Great service, delicious food, fast delivery of food. Host came to check on me often. The portions were great. Plenty of options. Very transparent on what is in the food. read more

Came here because of the high rating but the food was so bad. I ordered shrimp fried rice--a safe, easy option usually--but the rice was undercooked and dry and the shrimp were overcooked, tiny little balls of leather of sadness. My mom got a steak with rice dish and the steak was thin, cold, and dry. Maybe the pho itself is how they have a high rating so if you're going for pho only don't mind me. However, if you're going there hoping to have a decent rice-based dish I would maybe consider not doing that. The ambiance itself is quite dull and run down in a way that makes you think the food is either gonna buss down or be totally terrible and unfortunately for me, it was the latter. Would not go again though! read more

The pho here is delicious. The broth is very layered with flavors. I am a repeat customer.

Prompt: hole in the wall restaurant in a slightly sketchy area. Answer: Pho Tan. Conclusion: an amazing place to go that should not be overlooked!! Any true foodie knows that hole-in-the-wall restaurants that are super unassuming from the outside always turn out to have the best food. Pho Tan is a case in point. You'd never expect much from them just passing by, but that's exactly where the mistake is made! Their food is pretty simple, but they do it well. I love pho and they make it how it should be (in my opinion). I usually get a simple chicken or shrimp pho, and it's loaded with carrots, broccoli, snap peas and other veggies along with the protein. So not only is the meal delicious, but it's soo healthy too! The steamed dumplings and spring rolls are on par too, and I am just so happy to have this little place nearby to frequent. It's definitely a locally owned business so the service can be a little slow because there aren't many workers. So don't expect a quick trip but do remember it's totally worth the wait!! read more

The physical location is definitely lacking in luster, but I haven't had better pho in Lakeland than theirs. Ordering to go from here is my go-to when that vietnamese craving hits. The grilled chicken spring rolls are fresh, crisp, and quite delicious. Make sure to ask for chili paste to pair with them, in addition to the peanut sauce. The pho is rich in collagen and flavor. They could throw in a bit more cilantro and white onion, but they didn't skimp on the bean sprouts, jalapeños or limes. I'll definitely be ordering again but can't say I would ever dine in. read more

Everyone was eating beef pho around me and there's plenty of "oooo this is so gooooood" comments flying around. I wished I got pho but instead, I was surprised to see beef stew pho on the menu and decided to give it a go. This is my "go-to" pho option when I used to live in a city with a Vietnamese-town. It took about 30 minutes for the beef stew to arrive and then I was disappointed to hear that the typical beansprouts, basil and lime would be an extra charge from the waitress. Also, the carrots were not stewed with the beef stew but instead, crunchy and sliced on top. The soup was also bland and tasted watered down... so I ended eating the whole bowl dunking it in hoisin sauce and siracha. I was really hoping for the traditional version. Note to self...next time... try the beef pho. read more

This is hands down one of my favorite Pho places I've ever been to. I don't live in Lakeland but I would pay good money to have their food shipped to me. First we got the crab rangoons and WOW. These were hands down the most delicious crab rangoons ever and I've been on the hunt for ones that taste this good in my town. These aren't your average crab and cream cheese ones. They had garlic, water chestnuts, garlic and peppers and magic inside. The pho was fantastic and giant serving size. I made two meals out of it. Next time I am in Lakeland I'm headed here first. read more

One of my favorite vietnamese places to visit thats local. I've had the shrimp spring rolls (6.5-10), egg rolls (7.5-10). They have changed the menu up but I have had the Chicken Pho (8.0-10), Beef & Brisket Pho (9.0-10). Both very filling. The chicken could be improved but overall still very flavorful. read more

Pho Tan - Vietnamese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

So the location may not be the best. The decor may not be all to appealing. HOWEVER, hands down the best pho in Lakeland. Ive visited all the pho spots in Lakeland to compare and this spot serves the best bowl of pho. I did the well done brisket bowl and I knew off first glance my broth was BROTHY. It does now lack in flavor not one bit. The service was good. very friendly staff members. This is the definition of the "hole in the wall", "don't judge a book by its cover" etc. The outer appearance may say nay but trust me that bowl will have you saying yay. read more

ordered Pho with egg noodles, the plate itself was not bad but I ended up getting food poisoning from it. I would not return.

I love love love the pho here!!! I like to get the chicken pho and add rare steak and extra veggies. I've never been disappointed here. The spring rolls with the peanut sauce are also pretty yummy. read more

I ordered a quick takeout from here while I was staying overnight in Lakeland for work. I was battling what would become the cold from hell so I wanted something filling but soothing at the same time and this place has a lot of reviews so I said why not?! Plus they were 7 minutes from my air BNB so it was a win win. I called and they were very kind on the phone explaining the different types of pho and appetizers. I opted for a chicken pho and some egg rolls bc ya girl wanted something fried. I pull up and yes it looks quite sketch outside at night but I just KNEW the food would be bussin! It was clean inside too but I didn't use the restroom so I can't speak on that. Anyway, grab my food, pay and head home. The pho was phenomenal! So was the egg rolls, I had enough for leftovers the next day and it was just what the doctor ordered. Will definitely visit again next time I'm in Lakeland! read more

Pho Tan - Chicken pho and grilled chicken spring rolls - Vietnamese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

One of the best Pho we had in a while! totally worth the drive from Plant City! Never trust the book by its cover!

Clean, quiet, casual, friendly, excellent food. A regular stop for me. My favorite is the combination pho.

Three stars only because I've been one time and haven't tried much at this point. But what I did have was the pork sandwich that's grilled, and boy it was goood! The ingredients are simple enough and they compliment each other perfectly for a great sandwich. I love thé char taste of the meat! The service was great. Very friendly and helpful with making suggestions too. Not gonna lie, I have driven past this place and because the outside looks questionable I never went in or gave it a second thought until reading reviews. Inside is different. Give it a shot,, as I plan to go back asap. I went for Chinese food yesterday and was very disappointed that I didn't go here instead. read more

Pho Tan - Pork sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

Pho noodles were overcooked and too soft. We were a table of four. The server did not bring our four pho together, instead staggered them one and then three. In the middle, she also brought us a chicken instead of the beef that we ordered. Mind you, we were the only guests in the store at around 11am on a Saturday. Service was so slow. We only wanted to pass by a pho place on the way to Tampa. This restaurant is far from the highway and in the middle of nowhere. I don't expect to be back. read more

I was down in Lakeland visiting family and had a strong craving for something new. The oracles of Yelp led me to Pho Tan located right off of Combee Road. Coming from the DC Metro area, I have a good familiarity with the types of dishes that would be served in an establishment such as this one. Upon entering the shop you are treated to the aromas of grilled meats and scents of a good simmering Pho broth. The view of the dining area is no different that any other Pho shop, it has plenty of seating and the atmosphere is quiet. Reviewing the menu there were some staples that I knew I had to try out. Pho đac biet, Bánh mì ch lua, cha giò, and a cà phê sua đá were definitely within my future. I placed the order with a very friendly waitress who made sure to repeat my order back to me to make sure it was just right. Within a few moments she came back with the cà phê sua đá which was happily brewing in the mini French press. Soon thereafter came the Pho đac biet with a side plate of the usual toppings, bean sprouts, thai basil, jalapeño peppers, and slices of lime. A quick taste of the broth to see if it needed any correction in seasonings and can I just say, it was perfect, no additional alterations needed! Speaking to my server, she indicated that the owner takes time and care to prepare the broth which takes hours to get right, and it shows. The broth is rich with the right combination of spices just in the aroma itself, but when you take that first sip, you will be happily satisfied. The Bánh Mi Cha Lua was good, it had the liver pate and the Maggi seasoning typical for this sandwich along with the cilantro and pickled vegetables that gave it a refreshing taste. The bread is the one thing that I was no used to, coming from the DC area and the Bánh Mi DC shop is a touch comparo since they bake their baguettes in house. What is good though is that there is even a place here in Lakeland that serves a close representation in flavors of a proper Bánh Mi sandwich. The Cha Gio is the usual fare and came with the side of pickled vegetables as well as the Nuoc mam dipping sauce. It was served hot and fresh which is exactly how I like them. Overall I am pleased with the food that you can get at this local haunt, the one star is for the baguette, but since this is not a bakery, they did really well with the Bánh Mi. Highly recommended for those looking for authentic Vietnamese food in the Lakeland area. read more

This is a nice supplement to my regular Vietnamese spot in Tampa Saigon Deli. We ordered the Pho Special, Beef Vermicelli #45 on the menu, Thai Tea w Boba and Iced Vietnamese Coffee w Condensed Milk. The Pho was a 4.5/5. The broth was well seasoned and the portion was large. It was overpriced in comparison to other places. Beef Vermicelli was a 4.5/5. Everything was great especially how the meat was cooked and seasoned. The sauce was also good. Thai Tea w Boba was a 3/5. The boba was actually pretty hard and I had a powdery texture on the inside but otherwise tasted good. Iced Vietnamese Coffee w Condensed Milk was a 5/5. Nice and strong like I like it. Check them out if you're ever in the Lakeland area for good Vietnamese food. read more
