Pho Thien Vietnamese Kitchen - Excellent food friendly staff nice little gem - Vietnamese Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

A very delicious and authentic spot for pho! Don't be fooled by the small strip mall location... Pho Thien Vietnamese Kitchen is doing magical things inside this restaurant. Pay them a visit! Your taste buds will thank you. I've been here twice now and have been comforted by this delicious pho both times. The restaurant itself is pretty no frills - a fast casual vibe with paper napkins, plastic menus, and a couple TVs, but the food is phenomenal. The service has been quick and friendly both times as well. The first time I shared an order of spring rolls with my husband and had a bowl of pho (I forget which kind). This last time, I enjoyed the Pho Dac Biet (Pho Thien Specialty) that came with pho noodles, eye-round steak, flank steak, brisket, soft tendon, tripe, and beef meatballs. I ordered additional noodles as well (for $2), but that turned out to not be necessary - there were plenty! The broth, meat, and rice noodles were all delicious. It's accompanied by Asian basil, cilantro, lime, bean sprouts, hoisin sauce and hot sauce which rounds out this meal perfectly. For only $10.50 you get a ton of food. I'm no pro at chopsticks either, so it takes me forever to eat. That's probably for the best though, so I don't over-indulge. They have to-go containers so I loved being able to take home a second meal. If I can make one suggestion to those paying PTVK a visit, I would say definitely get a strawberry banana smoothie! My husband ordered one and I tried his and it's literally the best smoothie I've ever had. We will be back to Pho Thien again soon for sure. It's such a comforting meal on a cold fall/winter day! read more

Pho soup was excellent, and service very friendly. The thing that really concerned me is each table had utensils standing up in a holder, but standing upside down. So the handle was down, and the fork & spoon side was on top. When my food arrived, I was confused at first because no utensils came with. But then saw them in the holder. When I tried to take a spoon and fork out, it was impossible not to touch the other spoons and forks that were there too. My question is, how many other people touched those spoons/forks before me? And how many people will be using the ones I touched later.. Owner or management, can something be done to change that. Fantastic establishment, but I wouldn't want to eat here again in that situation. read more

no longer the authentic pho experience. Our pho was served with warm soup (not hot). The meats were all overcooked and super hard to chew. we got the P1. The menu said tendon included. I got two pieces of tendon, but the sizes combined were around the size of a quarter. We asked for more soup to soak the bean sprouts. The male manager said soup is 5 dollars for a small portion. His exact wording "yea, our soup is expensive for a small portion" speechless Extremely disappointed read more

I am a regular here! The food is absolutely amazing, 10/10 I recommend the P9 Pho, and the pork patty rolls! The rice plates are delicious as well and I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. The service is fantastic as well always willing to adhere to any needs or menu adjustments. Great music is always playing softly in the background, and makes for a great dining experience. I will definitely be back! read more

My boyfriend and I come here or order out at least two times a month from here. Best pho I've had ! I went on vacation to California a few months ago and the pho there didn't hit the spot as much as pho thien does. The Vietnamese iced coffee is perfect. I love everything about this place. Employees are extremely friendly and welcoming! read more

I've been here a couple times. It's right by the DMV, so parking can sometimes be difficult. I've have the Bun, as well as their Bahn Mi. Both were delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful both times. I definitely want to go back, and will when I have the time. I also ordered their lemonade, and it was incredibly delicious and is served in the cutest little mason jars with Pho Thien written on them. Great presentation for a yummy drink! read more

I am fortunate enough to live near this location because EVERY time we go or pick up it does not disappoint. The incredible food and outstanding service is consistent every time. The portions (even on takeout) are plentiful and most importantly the food is always prepared as requested and they always get it right. Highly recommend read more

Best in Naperville. Authentic food. Cosy seating. Excellent service. Love their Thai iced tea.

I cant say enough great things about Pho Thien restaurant. It is conveniently located off of 75th street in the same mini mall as the DMV. I was welcomed right away and made to feel like I was a special guest. Our server had wonderful suggestions about the menu as my sister and I hadnt eaten there before. I highly recommend the Bun Bo Hue. It is a clear broth soup w different selections of pork. Our server recommended the rice noodles instead of the vermicelli and it was amazing. The broth was so tasty with just enough spice. My sister had the Pho with steak and brisket. Both were amazing. The owners came by to say hello and make sure we enjoyed ourselves, which we did. read more

The pho broth was good, just not enough meat. Also, the tendon was fatty. Worst, the floor was really sticky at my table. Meh. Also, woke up to very swollen hands and feet, suggesting they use way too much salt. I wont be back. read more

YOU MUST VISIT THIS PLACE!!! i hope that was clear enough of a message. My husband and i have traveled all over Vietnam so we know what a good pho should taste like and the chicken pho here is unlike any other! I would definitely recommend the chicken pho over the beef and i will definitely be back for more. read more

First time eating here today. A couple of friends and I had a taste for Pho and we found this great family restaurant tucked into the corner next to the Naperville DMV. Funny how many times I've been to the DMV and never saw this place. I was greeted by a very friendly host and she told me to sit anywhere. Once my buddies arrived she immediately came to wait on us and even offered a suggested new spring roll for us to try. The place is clean and inviting and it filled up quickly. The Pho was amazing!!! The spring rolls where to be expected, fresh and flavorful. I had the P1 The Pho Tuen Specialty and my buddies got the P6 Pho Tai Bo Vien with just brisket and meatballs. The food came very quickly and the service was excellent. My one friend ordered a Banh Mi (BM5), his first ever and he really enjoyed it. I ordered two Banh Mi to go for my wife and I for dinner. The grilled pork and the combination which is more the classic I've gotten. Both sandwiches were very tasty. My only two dings that keep me from giving them 5 stars are. 1. They served me a canned Vietnamese coffee over ice instead of making it homemade. 2. Both sandwiches had large hard inedible stalks of cilantro on them which is a first I've ever had. Most places don't put the stalks on the sandwiches. DEFINITELY going back!!! Delicious food, super fast service and love that it is a family run business. read more

Horrible service during my visit. Server could care less if I ate at her establishment or not and her lack of customer service definitely showed that. I just wanted Vegetables in my Pho and she said no. Well thank you and goodbye. The ambiance was pretty standard. read more

Decent Vietnamese restaurant in the burbs with a fair price. Good to stop by for a quick Vietnamese fix and a bowl of hot Pho, noodle soup during winter. There's a spicy Pho version and it adds a good kick to the pho. read more

One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants in the burbs. The owners of this restaurant moved here from Cali and so they know wassup when it comes to legit Viet food. The go to order is the pho dac biet (Special pho w/ everything). The broth is balanced, not too bland/salty. They give a decent amount of proteins and the platter of veggies is abundant. Their rice platters are pretty legit, too. So if you're not feeling soup, check out their rice dishes. For appetizers, check out their spring rolls and the mussels, loved it! On weekends, they have the specials for Bun Bo Hue, which is spicy beef noodle soup. It's pretty bomb. Also, their fruit smoothies are yummy, too! Only issue is the price are a bit steep..definitely not used to paying $10+ for a bowl of pho... read more

One of our favorite go-to Vietnamese restaurant! We drive from Joliet regularly n it rivals any Vietnamese restaurant in Chicago. Quality, fresh ingredients with friendly, fast service. Family owned n managed! Lucky to have a place like this in town. read more

Overall the food was good! Chicken wings were seasoned and fried really well. The pho was really good for middle of Illinois pho. Broth was great and had a nice amount of flavor but nothing too overpowering. The portion sizes were smaller than what i am used to and there was not a lot of meat. I would def come back if I need a good bowl of pho to warm my soul read more

We had beef pho and chicken pho. Broth is lovely. Chicken was over cooked and dry. Beef was even worse-tasteless and so dry it was barley edible. What a disappoint! Service was so-so, wait staff was concerned with having their own dinner. read more

Place is pretty good for being in the suburbs, but my preference for Vietnamese food would be green basil. I thought the pho here wasn't as flavorful as green basil. It's minor, but for someone having lived in LA, I'd like to think I can tell differences in quality. read more

Love the Pho (P11) with tofu. Also the spring rolls are always fresh and delicious. The delivery was fast and the food was packed well.

I'm so happy I stopped here for lunch after my run at Springbrook Prairie. I walked in and was immediately greeted and seated. I was asked if I needed any help with the menu, but I totally new what I wanted. It was ALL THE THINGS. So I ordered spring rolls, a kid-sized portion of pho, and a BBQ Pork Banh Mi. I stuck with water this time because I needed to fit all the things in my tummy, of course. First the spring rolls came. They were very fresh and tasty. I really liked the peanut sauce it came with. It was a bit more watery than other sauces that usually come with springs rolls I order at other places, so it was a bit more messy, but I thought it tasted great. Next came my "baby" pho. It was definitely bigger than what any kid can eat in one sitting. I love that you can order a smaller size of pho! It was the perfect lunch portion. I order beef pho, and the meat was tasty and not too fatty. I thought the broth had a lot of flavor in it. And the pound of bean sprouts they gave was much appreciated. My BBQ pork banh mi came out not too soon after my pho. The bread was great-flaky and chewy and awesome. The ingredients, as with everything else, tasted very fresh. I would have maybe liked a tad more meat on the sandwich, but for the price I thought it was still ok. This sandwich could stand up to many of the ones you can find in the city. I was impressed. So, clean restaurant, attentive service, delicious food, good prices. Yup, you guys gotta try it out. I'll be back and next time I'll bring some other people with me. read more

I cannot tell you how many times I craved this restaurant's cuisine when I was pregnant. From Bun bo to pho to those pork spring rolls to their bbq to their banh mi. I craved it all and still do! Just wish their serving size for thai ice tea was a tad larger. Still need to try their coffee - but thats for the next trip! Felicia is my fave waitress and always explains and suggests a new dish to try! read more

I like Vietnamese food, but after trying Pho Thien, I LOVE Vietnamese cuisine. Whether it's pho, rice or noodle dishes, the flavors in their dishes will leave you smiling. You can taste the freshness of their ingredients too. Oh, Naperville, I hope you realize how lucky you are to have a restaurant like Pho Thien! My recommendations are the pho (my favorite is P9 - Pho Dac Biet) and the noodle dish Bun Dac Biet (B1). The portions are big and will leave you feeling full - not in a guilty way but in a happy way. Sadly, they are closed on Mondays, but all other days I can count on my Pho Thien fix! read more

Great place to grab a quick bite. Went here when visiting some friends and introduced them to Vietnamese food. What's nice is while a bit small, the banh mi are really affordable. Three of us split three sandwiches plus a rice vermicelli plate. It was a great sampling and we all had different favorites between all the sandwiches. It was a takeout order, ready pretty fast. Definitely recommend coming here. read more

Best damn food for if you're hungry, feel like shit, tired, doesn't matter. The pho here will make you feel better. Super nice employees, clean restaurant, amazing expirience. read more

I was going through one of my friend's snapchats when I came across this delicious bowl of Pho on her snap. I instantly texted her asking for the name of the restaurant. I looked it up on Yelp and two hours later, we ended up eating there for lunch. The customer service at most Asian places are poor, with the exception of this place. My friend and I was seated right away and our waiters were extremely nice. Free soda with a check-in on Yelp with a purchase. The spring rolls at this place are equivalent to Green Basil. I was planning on getting Pho, however, they had a weekend special on Bun Bo Hue so both my friend and I ended up getting it. When the Bun Bo Hue came out, the broth was so clear and the first thing came to my mind was "OMG, this gonna tastes like water". But I was mistaken, the broth was actually favorable (actually tasted better than Green Basil) As for the drink, I got an avocado smoothie and it was refreshing since they actually used real fruits. On top of that, it was in this cute mason jar. read more

I'm a sucker for customer service and our first visit to Pho Thien did not disappoint. Every employee that "touched our table" was so friendly but our main waitress was amazing. She was honestly happy that we were there, showed us what was great in the menu, actually up-sold and talked to us through out our dinner. I wish I got her name because she is one of the best and friendliest waitresses I have come across in a long time. Now to the food. It was great. We pretty much stick to what we know and like (mango smoothie, spring rolls, brisket pho) and this time did not disappoint. Pho broth was solid (we could smell it from the parking lot!), spring rolls were very fresh. I am so happy to have tried this place. The family said as we were walking to the car that they can't wait to come back. read more

I love noodle soups. Pho Thien is one of my favorite pho restaurants. This is very tied with Green Basil in Downtown Naperville. Reasons its a great place to check out: 1. Their Pho is phenomenal. Great tasting broth that doesnt over kill the quality and taste of the meats. 2. They give you plenty of options fish sauce on the table, crushed red pepper puree, red pepper oil if you ask for it, anything you can ask for really. 3. Their service is personally really comforting compared to another pho place on rt 59 which i wont mention these guys are Superior. Always welcoming, cater to what you need, checking up only when they see that we're ready. You know when you start looking around and they'll pick up on it. 4. The rice dishes are just as awesome as the pho. I have some pics but that doesnt do it justice. 5. Ambience. Music is key to my heart and Pho Thien always has a good selection. Plus tv's if youre feeling antisocial. Thats my 5. Good luck! Hope you enjoy as much as i did. I typically go a couple times a month. read more

4.5 stars for sure!! We live close by so frequent this restaurant often. I'm vietnamese so very familiar with the cuisine. Not many options in the area for vietnamese, Pho Thien satiates our craving when we're missing Viet food. The location is in a strip mall and during the day m-f can be busy b/c next to DMV. If you've never had vietnamese food, the authenticity here is 100%. In the wintertime, try Pho beef noodle soup, it'll warm your belly! On the weekends, they have Bun Bo Hue special which is great if you like spicy noodle soup. For the summer, try the vermicelli noodles or the rice dishes, all very flavorful. all of their appetizers are authentic and delicious, we prefer the spring rolls or the beef salad. the smoothies here are super tasty, worth the splurge. comes with tapioca if you like them. Service is always nice and quick. Def recommend this spot for authentic vietnamese in Naperville if you're close by. read more
