    Bun Bo Hue
    Tony H.

    Been coming here more frequently since Pho Binh's closure. Pho Thy is located in the same strip mall with Ben Thanh Food Market and Family Dollar on the corner of Fuqua and Sabo. They have started serving pho with fresh rice noodle but today I wanted to try one of their less known dish on the recommendation of the waiter. Bun Bo Hue has a distinct flavor that's can probably be described as pho's sexy cousin. They executed the Bun Bo Hue very well here. Great balance of sweet and umami flavors that's created by the fermented shrimp paste. The restaurant do get crowded on the weekends but during the week you never have to wait for a table and the food will come to the table faster than a cheeseburger at McDonald's.

    Cơm Tấm

    Ăn gì, Ở đâu Ăn gì? Cơm tấm Ở đâu? pho thy I really like eating Cơm tấm here, it's really delicious!

    Bò Né

    Excellent food here!!! Must try these Bo Ne or Vietnamese Beef Sizzling. It comes with a bread to dip in. Also Vietnamese Broken Rice or Com Tam is delicious too. The meat is thick cut and flavourful. Service are awesome. Waiter are attentive and fast too.

    Large pho tai
    Ann N.

    We've been here many times, and long story short: it's good quality pho for a decent price. Their portions are generous. $7 for small, $8 for large, and $9 for XL. They give a lot of vermicelli & meat for the cost. Broth is hearty. I always get the large pho tai. After going to mediocre pho places with small portions at an astronomical price, this was refreshing. Service is as expected, not super personable but gets the job done. Bathrooms smell really strange and this place really lacks cleanliness, as many other authentic Vietnamese restaurants do. If you're able to overlook this, you'll enjoy your dining experience. 1 star off for a disappointing experience we've had coming here during our last visit. The place closes at 8 PM on Sundays. We drove nearly an hour with my grandma, arriving at 7:30. When we came in, they refused to serve us and said the kitchen had been closed down for the evening. They couldn't make any exception. While we respect that the employees wanted to go home, it was very frustrating not knowing they'd close down so soon, and 30 minutes is really early to have closed the place down, leaving our elderly grandma hungry and confused.

    The family enjoying the food from Pho Thy and they love it! cause it's good!

    We've been to Pho Thy for many years. it is always good Pho here. But today, I have 'Com Tam' (the Broken Rice with Pork Chop); the grill pork is so tender enough and taste great. My son enjoys his 'Bo Ne' the Fajitas Beef and meat balls serve with french bread. My wife loves the pho serve with new fresh noodles. we have a good time and everyone enjoys the good.

    Omg what a hidden hole in the wall for pho! By far my favorite pho place now. Where have you been? I ordered the pho tai gan and it was delicious! The soup base did not need anything added to it. It was the perfect savory broth that warms your heart and soul. The meat omgggg! You can tell it was made with love; im guess it was crafted with salt and pepper and maybe lime was added. It was well beaten because the meat was soft and it breaks apart so easily. It goes great with the pho. One down side was I had a lot of noodles in my bowl though. I was too full to eat all the noodles. If they had added less noddles it would make me crave for more. But overall it was worth the drive for me. I live 45 mins away. The place does not smell great when you enter, but don't let that make you run. The pho is worth it!!! My husband and son also killed their pho. The service was quick too. We were surprised that the pho came out fast. We literally just placed an order too.

    The grilled pork spring rolls are really good, and the Pho is also delicious! Y'all should come and get this Pho right here. The best

    I have been going to Pho Thy for over 10 years or every since they opened. I have brought my grandkids here every since they were born. We usually eat Beef PhoSliced Rare Beef SteakSpring Rolls etc. They have never failed to give the best service and food you could get. I eat here at least once a week. I have tried many Pho shops. This one excels way above all the rest. I would highly recommend Pho Thy to anyone.

    Today is coldes day; let eating one bowl pho soup from pho thy is the best time right now. Let go to eat pho now everyone

Servers dressed up and ready to serve ginormous portions of whatever you want for breakfast or lunch. Bring a large appetite. Large size sweet and sour pickles come 1st to table .

Their signature chicken soup with a bagel chip was served steamy hot as we like it. Even has the world largest chocolate Eclair filled with bavariancreme and topped with chocolate. This place would be popular in S. Florida and very happy is here for the locals. Looking forward to a return.

Pork Bao's are normally my daughter fave but the soup dumplings here are her favorite. She could finish an order on her own. The service is always great.

The order goes straight to the kitchen and you can add as you go if wanted. I always thought that was pretty cool. The owner came out to say hello and ask how everything is. She even brought out a small bowl of soup for my baby to enjoy. The waitress was also very sweet and attentive. I don't live close by but will make the trip when the craving hits. Today was one of those days. The last time I was here there was no ac and not enough seating. This time it was nice and cool in and well as having new seating!

    Wow! Just... wow…read more Loved this place from the moment I walked in! Ambiance was super fun and welcoming. The tubs of ice filled with cold drinks all around as you approach the counter was casual and fun. And the staff was welcoming and friendly. The menu had so much variety, without being overwhelming. Anything from a good pazole, to a brisket Rueben, to an American Italian sandwich! I got the báhn mì sandwich, which was bursting with flavor! The pork was seasoned well and had good flavor from the marinade. The cilantro, pickled onions, jalapeno, all were so fresh and vibrant! And I was able to get homemade chips and fresh strawberries as my side - such a refreshing bite the strawberries after a rich, porky, spicy bite from the sandwich. Can't say enough good! Loved this place and would go back in a heartbeat!

    A big part of the decades long success at Local Foods has been their commitment to consistency…read more Their casual setting with excellent service is one thing, but quality executed food that is simple and seasonal will always go a long way. Before their recent expansions to Austin, it all began here in Rice Village exactly 15 years ago. The vibes are contemporary and casual, with the kind of space that fits for just about any scenario. Whether it's a solo meal, a lunch date, or a group led affair, the experience is almost always an excellent one. Start by ordering at the counter and find a seat where the food will brought directly to the table. So much of their variety caters to all sorts of dietary restrictions from vegan to gluten free to nut free. Their spicy crispy brussels sprouts ($10) are a nice starter, as is the squash "onion" rings ($12). The local power bowl ($16) is a classic and I've always enjoyed the brown rice and quinoa combo. Their chicken "posolé" is solid, and I love the large hominy bits along with the clear but green tint of a broth. The chicken shawarma bowl ($20) is an interesting mix that includes pickled beets and strawberries, along with their market cheddar burger ($17) and fabulous twice cooked fries. The carrot cupcake is strangely addicting, and I think their gluten free brownie is a bit of a sleeper. Some of their items didn't jive with me previously, such as an underwhelming cashew queso ($9), a semi-laughable Vietnamese steak bowl ($22), and their semi-gringo version of a banh mi ($15). It's not that these items are bad per se, but they definitely don't live up to the same standard that I feel their other dishes do best. Where they hit the biggest home run is their customer service. Everyone working behind the counter does their best to deliver and they almost always do by staying on top of refills, cleanups, and customer greets. I've always enjoyed my experiences here and look forward to every visit.
