    Guys the portions are so big! I am usually a person who prefers a smaller plate but recently I've been grateful for foods that are a bang for your buck. This was just that. I enjoyed my pho! The rolls were also nice! I just wished that getting extra toppings wasn't so expensive. I appreciate what they are going for but I would love if adding an extra green didn't cost an extra $5! Overall pretty nice staff and really flavorful broth.

    Pretty good food and fair pricing. Overall a good spot to hit if you want some pho, com tam, or bun.

    TL;DR - Excellent Vietnamese food at reasonable prices, all while dining in a spacious and modern designed interior. The summer of 2025 has resulted in several trips to Philly; which isn't a bad thing. As a native New Yorker, it pains me to say this, but I might actually "enjoy" traveling to this city MORE, since driving and parking are easier and the food is on par, if not in some cases, BETTER than what I find in NYC. During this most recent trip, we decided to pop into Pho Today, since one member of our group previously dined at and suggested this place. Upon entry, there is a take-out counter for drinks (boba, milk tea, etc.), desserts, and banh mi sandwiches. Follow the directional signs, and once you walk in, wait to be seated. The dining area is HUGE and well appointed. The windows towards the back, illuminate the room with lots of natural lighting. I would try and avoid the center seating, since those areas can get loud, and opt for one of the tables along the side wall. Water glasses and menus arrived shortly upon sitting. There were a few dishes ordered, but one of the dishes I always get at a new Viet restaurant to me is some version of rice vermicelli and lemongrass grilled pork . At Pho Today, I decided to make it "fancy" and get their number 1 Bún Đặc Biệt "Today". Special grilled pork, grilled shrimp, grilled beef, spring roll comes a top rice vermicelli. It get served with a side of veggies, limes, chili sauce, and of course, the house nuoc mam (aka, the dipping fish sauce). First off, the bowl is ginormous, Secondly, for $17, it's a steal since an equivalent order in the DC area would be at least $20, and in NYC close to $25. And lastly, did the dish taste good? No...it tasted amazing! All of the meats were marinated and grilled to provide both smoky notes as well as the right amount of char without being burnt. Unlike some places, there was more protein than noodles in the bowl. And I especially appreciate that the nuoc mam was not overly sweet. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their dishes, which ranged from steaming bowls of Bún Bò Huế to heaping plates Cơm Bò Lúc Lắc. Service was also superior. Staff were constantly checking in on the table to fill water glasses and provide extra napkins as needed. Apparently there are a few Pho Today restaurants (https://order.online/business/PhoToday-318909?utm_source=sdk&visitorId=197ac11d71358244e), so if you happen to be traveling between NJ and PA and come across a location, I HIGHLY recommend stopping in for some authentic Viet cuisine.

    Excellent Authentic Vietnamase Cuisine with a vegan menu with 8 vegan enrees. It a Phillies homerun in affordable. Healthy. Authentic. Friendly service. Etc. Well worth checking out for exceptional Excellent experience. Ambience is spacious. Not keen on music yet here for the best vegan food experience in two visits to Philly.

    - Service: Fast and friendly. - Ambiance: This restaurant is very spacious. They also have a very nice area for you to wait for your tables or pick-up orders. - Food: I usually have my Viet food at Pho Today but Plainsboro location. This is my first time dining here in South Philly location. The menu is way extended which features more special dishes. - We got Goi Co Hu Dua Tom Thit and Bun Thi Nuong. The Goi is so so so good and refreshing. It goes very nice with the rice crackers. Huge shrimps and lots of meat. - Bun Thit Nuong is always good. The portion is huge! Nicely seasoned grilled pork and crispy spring rolls, they gave us a lot of lettuce and pickles too! I love Pho Today and will come back soon! Definitely recommend this to everyone. The parking lot in the strip mall is chaotic and difficult to find available spot .

    Pork chops
    Bradley L.

    Delicious pork chops over rice! The food came out fast and service was great. The pork chop's meat flavor was insane! I loved the dish. They have a small bowl of fish sauce brought out for you to use.

    Great place to get a variety of Vietnamese classics. One of the best options is the special Vermicelli with grilled shrimp, pork, chicken and beef. Get the salt pepper style squid, shrimp and scallops.

    Summer rolls with tofu
    Elizabeth M.

    My friend and I came here for lunch on a Saturday and had a great experience. We ordered some tofu summer rolls to start which came with a yummy peanut dipping sauce. I ordered the Pho Chay (vegetarian noodle soup). I was amazed at the portion - I couldn't even fit all my leftovers into the container they gave me! The broth was super tasty, and there was a generous portion of all the veggies. I only wish there had been a bit more tofu. Overall, solid place for a nice bowl of pho on a cold winter's day.

    For a place that's in the same plaza as several reputable pho places, Pho Today sets itself apart by being the only place that offers diverse vegetarian options AND a pho with a jumbo hunk of meat (Pho Today's short ribs) all on the same menu. Price here a bit steep, but their pho is pretty solid. Our table had pork and shrimp papaya salad, stir-fried tofu and veggies, Pho Filet Mignon, Pho Today, Che Thai, and avocado smoothies. Of the food dishes, the best was Pho Filet Mignon. Papaya salad wasn't exactly what I expected since the papaya slices were a bit too chunky for my liking. Flavor-wise, it wasn't bad but I've had better. Both pho dishes had tasty broth and a good amount of vermicelli noodles, but Pho Filet Mignon was a better bang for the buck overall since Pho Today had less meat and the meat balls were a bit tough. Ambience-wise, Pho Today's the only pho place in the plaza that's more suitable for hosting out-of-town guests who expected accommodations beyond the basics. I like that there are booths for seating as well a che bar. Service was also great in that the servers were readily available whenever we needed something and they checked up on us at just the right frequency without becoming intrusive.

    Great Vietnamese food in the Philly area. Friendly staff are helpful and will help give you direction around the menu if you're not familiar. Location is big and a great location for groups. It's not too loud. The only downside is it's in a busy shopping center with our busy Asian restaurants and stores, so parking can be tough in busy times. All the food was authentic and delicious. We got spring rolls and soup to share with the group. Overall great experience, definitely come by and check it out. Though be warned that parking is packed most of the time so be warned!

    My new favorite Vietnamese spot! I've tried a ton of dishes and have never been disappointed. Their bun bo hue is delicious and you can ask for extra sate to give it more spice. Love that it's served with the pork blood cubes and pork hock. The 3 meat platter was also a big hit with my table. All dishes are loaded with meat and they provide a ton of herbs for accompaniment. Place is large and I've never had an issue getting a table right away. Service is also on top of everything, remembering all my little asks.

    Located in a shopping center that is surrounded by other eateries, stores, and supermarkets. Beware: parking lot can be quite busy and spaces are a but tight. The dining area was spacious. Despite it being a Saturday night, there was only a short wait, and the service was impressively fast - our food arrived in under 10 minutes. The bathroom was by far the cleanest I've ever encountered in a restaurant! We ordered two grilled pork chop platters, one with an egg quiche and the other without, along with a shrimp and pork lotus root salad. The portions were just right, and the ingredients were incredibly fresh. The grilled pork chops were cooked to perfection. Overall, it was a great experience. The food was tasty, the service was prompt, and the cleanliness was top-notch. I would definitely recommend this spot and would happily return!

    If you're craving food that will appear in front of you in less than 10 minutes in a sleek restaurant, Pho Today is the place for you. -- Highlights: There are some options for vegetarian pho! I've found most places offer no options, so this was a happy surprise. -- My latest visit to Pho Today was after disaster struck in my personal life, and I was craving quick and hearty soup. I was happy to see that there were vegetarian options! I got the vegetarian pho with special mushrooms, and though I wish the broth was a little more flavorful, the quantity and quality were perfect! The variety of mushrooms was nice and the quantity of noodles, broth, and vegetables was excellent. The oxtail soup was very hearty while the BBQ roast pork bahn mi was also good value for the price. All the food for my table arrived after maybe 10 minutes too! The restaurant is large and clean and my friends and I were happy to be seated fast, have our food arrive fast, and be able to sit and chat without being rushed out. It was quiet, which we appreciated. There were plastic cups which were a little strange. My friend who dined just last weekend commented they must be new. However, it didn't impact dining, it just felt out of place for such a nice restaurant. Overall, Pho Today saved my day with their tasty food and I would highly recommend a try, if in the area.

    I was born and raised in Philly Chinatown and have been eating here for as long as I can remember…read more It's been a whole decade now and even though me and my family have moved right outside of Philly, we still drive that long distance and come here to eat because it's never changed. The fresh smell of their noodles brings back nice childhood memories. Their food has always been great and their broth is absolutely delicious. Me and my siblings always clear the entire bowl and leave nothing behind. Their spring rolls are a MUST TRY because it's always very crispy and steaming hot when they serve it to you. The drinks are amazing especially their fruit smoothies because they use actual fresh fruits so their drinks end up having a lot of flavor. The staff here are very nice that we even managed to get along with some of them. You can rest assured that you WILL get what you paid for because they fill their bowls to the brim. There's always going to be a good amount of food in each of their dishes so feel free to order whatever you crave. Couple tips: Try to eat AT the place to ensure that your food is fresh and good. Take out for the most part isn't really good because your food is literally just sitting there until you get it or until you open it up and eat it. USE THEIR SAUCES!!! Or make your own sauce with the ones provided. Always makes a difference when I dip food in it or mix it with the soup. Don't be afraid to come with a big group of people. They have an upstairs seating area too but I guess if you're coming with a lot of people just let them know in advance before entering. This is Chinese owned so it's more like a casual Asian restaurant but the food is definitely worth a try because it's affordable.

The biggest surprise was the tái (eye-round steak), yet still retaining that pleasantly chewy texture of undercooked beef; the gầu (fat brisket) was thick and crisp, fragrant but not greasy--who would have thought I'd find brisket fat here? This showed the restaurant's precise control over the broth temperature and the thickness of the beef. Almost all phở restaurants claim to offer authentic raw beef or various cuts of beef, but very few can truly make customers feel the difference. The restaurant's decor is simple but spacious and clean; the service is average, but very efficient. Efficiency is essential for phở, otherwise the beef would be overcooked in the hot broth. After all, the essence of a restaurant is food, and for such affordable ones, it's gratifying to see them spend most of their costs on the food itself.

They had good reviews online and rightfully so! When we came in, the only staff was this man and a young child sitting on a chair, who I assumed was his daughter. He would gently ask her to help with small tasks like bringing us menus and water, which she would adorably rush over to our table, place down quickly, and then scurry back to her chair. It honestly made me laugh to myself and smile -- it was such a wholesome moment that really showed the family dynamic. Seeing his daughter nearby while he worked added a lot of warmth to the experience and made the place feel even more genuine and welcoming. I even noticed her school photos on the wall near the cashier table, which really highlighted the family-run vibe.
