Best Pho in Vancouver in my opinion, nobody broth compares. The customer service is also amazing.

Pho Tom 1 is no nonsense and relative with steadfast customer service. The interior is downhome, menu is extensive with all the greats you'd expect in a Vietnamese restaurant. I've ordered bành mí with a crisp thin baguette and flavorful grilled chicken, could've been amped with more dô chua, with a touch more pickle and crunch. The phô broth is solid and understated, still hitting notes of comfort with cinnamon and so spices in a langorious warmth. Flank and brisket in this location are quite juicy and begin beautifully sliced thin and rare. The vermicelli dishes are a favorite and a standard with grilled pork chops at the tangy charred savory that hits a tactful balance of salty sweet. For drinks, their avocado and jackfruit smoothies are staples I would have every summer day if my body could tolerate that much sugar and that much childhood nostalgia. Affordable, tasty, family owned and established, Pho Tom 1 in Vancouver is on repeat for my partner and I. Their take out is also efficient! read more

I'm a pho fiend and this place is fantastic! So a few of my favorite things about Pho Ton 1: -The dining room is clean, inviting and comfortable. -The customer service is very warm, friendly and efficient. -The Vietnamese sandwiches are gorgeous, the portions are generous and the pho is exceptional! -I basically live on pho when I'm sick, so I'll usually pick up 2 phos to go, eat one and keep the other in my fridge for the next days lunch and it's still amazing the next day! (This pho is some serious power food if you're looking to kick a cold fast, btw.) -It's hard to find a restaurant in Vancouver that doesn't have several televisions going at once and I am VERY happy to report that Pho Ton has zero T.Vs and is a very peaceful place to grab a relaxing and delicious meal. Don't ever change Pho Ton :-) you are rad! read more

Hands down the best Pho I have ever had in my entire life! I live in Beaverton and will drive all the way to Vancouver for their Pho! If you're eating there or to go you won't be disappointed. They do close early and are closed on Sundays so make sure you plan accordingly! Only wish they had one in Beaverton!!! read more

In this crisis we face and not being able to eat I found this place via yelp. I entered the restaurant and was politely greeted and served beyond my expectations. The lady had an amazing memory as to what my long or was. Food turned out delicious and Devine ! read more

Is probably one of the best pho places by far we've had here on the West Coast. My boyfriend is Vietnamese so if this place passes his muster that I know it is very good. We had the pho and the bun bo hue, both were delicious and portions were very generous. We definitely would recommend this to anyone who likes Vietnamese food. read more

My favorite Vietnamese restaurant in Vancouver by far! And I've been here too many times to count on my fingers and toes. PROS: --you can order bun (vermicelli noodles) with VEGGIE ONLY! Hallelujah! (paleo heaven) --grilled pork is marinated and grilled perfectly --portion size is massive --pho broth is rich in flavor, and they definitely never skimp on the meat --veggies are usually fresh --they actually have pictures of the meat and explain what they are for all the pho newbies (wondering what tripe is? look at the menu!) CONS: --wait time to order and eat food can be a pain, especially when it's busy --like some other reviews mentioned, it's hit or miss with service depending on who is serving you TIP: If you can catch the pretty Vietnamese lady with long black hair to be your server, she is the best! read more

WOW...!!! Incredible.. exactly what I needed this morning. Showed up at opening and they completely delivered.. EVERY ingredient was insanely fresh. I still have the delicious aroma of freshly picked Thai basil on my fingers. YUM! Seriously from the basics... jalapeño, Thai basil , bean sprouts, lime all farmers market quality!!! Brisket and round eye superb quality.. noodles nicely done.. BROTH was out of this world good! I've been their 5-6 times before and it's been mostly a 3.5-4* average.. This time it was an over the top 5* and I felt I needed to write this review. Waitress was incredibly quick, food came out fast and piping hot! Can't wait till my next visit... most likely within the next few days :) Intense flavored PHO here... read more

Sweet staff, their thai tea was good but i was expecting it to be more sweet. The inside is also really cute and cozy

I love their Pad Thai and Phô (both are best in Vancouver IMO). Besides having good food, I like that it's family owned. The service from the whole family is great. The interior is simple and clean but nothing fancy. The good stuff is where it counts. My only real gripe is it's a pain to park sometimes. read more

Pho Ton 1 - Simple clean atmosphere. The service and food are top notch. - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

This place was AMAZING! The banh mi are the BEST I've ever had (except for ones I bought on the street in Hanoi). And the pho is fantastic too. I've never had broth that tasted like theirs. Seasoned REALLY well! read more

Pho Ton 1 - Banh mi and pho! - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

See all

Great food! Chicken pho is very good! Very good boba as well. Very quick service as well.

I am Vietnamese American and after working abroad for 15 months, all I was missing in my life was a bowl of Pho. Needless to say after eating Pho after a couple other restaurants, I was not impressed and began losing hope in Pho. However, after going to Pho Ton in Vancouver, I finally found the Pho fix that I had been missing for 15 months. Don't let the appearance on the exterior deceive you, the interior is charming and tastefully decorated. The Pho and Bun Bo Hue are among the best tasting in the Vancouver/Portland area. And the service is friendly. I highly recommend it. read more

This place blew my mind away with their Bun Bo Hue(Spicy Vietnamese Noodle Soup). I always substitute the typical rice noodles for the the pho noodles, which is a personal preference. But that doesn't change the fact that the flavors for this noodle soup is out of this world. I would even have to say, it's the best Bun Bo Hue I've had in the Washington state! Their Banh Mi(Vietnamese sandwich) is also very unique. It's made in a long french baguette, not your typical baguette that you see at other restaurants. Very fresh and tasty, although I wish they have the special banh mi with everything(Banh Mi Dac Biet). It was busy when I went here on a Saturday, and it stayed busy(which is a good sign). Saw a lot of regulars due to the warm welcoming that the young lady was giving everyone. Knowing their orders, their name and etc. I was so impressed. She was running around and doing everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. Taking orders, working the cash register, making drinks and even serving the food. If she was cooking too, I would think she was not human. Since moving down to Vancouver, I've been recommended to this place and I am glad I came here. Plan on coming back and trying more. Will update as I go :) read more

The sci-fi geek in me commandeered control of my truck and made pulled a U-turn back into the parking lot as soon as I saw the name of this place ("Sorry Don Taco, you'll simply have to wait your turn. Hasta Pronto, Macho!"). I can still hear Khan bellowing, and shaking a defiant fist at the Enterprise, "Aft Torpedos, FIRE!!!" (Yes, I know 'Photon' is not simply a made-up sci-fi term; it's denotes the measurement of electromagnetic force in light, or something to that effect.. As such, the name of this soup eatery also appeals to the inner science nerd, especially as regards Astronomy---even if alot of the specific details are quite dusty at this point, so many years after college) The Pho' here is good. Nothing jumps out as innovative. I have tried, at various times, their mixed meat, and their seafood Phos. As with innumerable Thai eateries that have gathered in the Metro area in recent years, it would be quite difficult for a single place to really stand out with its Pho' at this point... that's why I weigh value so heavily in the equation. Price isn't everything, and most often I'm willing to pay more for better dining experience. But since so very few individuals rise to the top of the Bell Curve, that means, by definition, that most of the competitors are simply "hangin' with the pack".... so if you dare to charge more than the rest of the pack (and even the top dogs), you better make it worth it.... There are still places around town where you can get your Pho' fix, large sized, for 5 or 6 bucks. Unless you are pressed for time and this here Pho Ton is your only logistical option, I see no reason to spend nearly twice that, by the time you figure tax into the equation. It's unclear to me if you can still have your car detailed at this location, but I know for certain you can buy grips of fresh vegetables inside where the drive-thru carwash "should" be. If they rigged the shop to fire actual Photon Torpedos at cars/bicyclists passing by? Instant revision of this review to 5 star status, baby!!!! read more

Pros- Fast service, tasty food, large selection Cons- Location (kind of dumpy looking on the outside), food portions are a big small or skimpy. Once you get past the fact that Pho Ton looks like a gas-station add-on from the outside, you won't be disappointed with the food, service, or decor on the inside. read more

I have never had such great pho before I came here. I got steak pho with a pineapple bubble tea and a coconut smoothie to split between two people. The pho was amazing. Not too salty and full of flavor and meat. I almost forgot about the noodles at the bottom haha. Filled both me and my friend up in one large serving. I am a HEAVY eater too. the leftover soup filled 3/4 of a quart container. WOW! The pineapple Boba was great and the pearls were a good addition. Now the coconut smoothie... Not only was it HUGE, but oh my goshhhh I have never had a better smoothie in my ENTIRE LIFE. Worth every penny. I am going back. In fact I was going to go back the next day, today. Till I found out they are closed on Sundays :/ I WANT MOAR read more

I'm white and felt judged like an outsider unwelcome then, i had be rushed off because i had a to go order, so I've eaten pho over 20 times at different places and never had a problem. This place wouldn't describe what was in the food and I just didn't wanna have like cow brain or something weird because it had a full on Vietnamese menu. I got my food and had to make it, so I ask... Would you rather buy ingredients and cook them yourself or buy a already prepared meal, well I should of just bought ingredients somewhere else because I basically bought un-prepared very expensive ingredients and it took 30 mins to make... an unprepared meal, even the beef was raw and they gave me gelatinous beef parts when I asked for none... overall i wont comeback... read more

Great pho, I dined in and got takeout multiple times. When you get it to-go, it helps to take it home and heat up and broth on the stove and toss the meat in first. Service was decent, I will be back. read more

Authentic Vietnamese food. They have good veggie choices. The place was busy but our order came out in a timely manner. Definitely coming back for more! read more

Horrible food!!!! Service was so bad, workers are very rude and disrespectful. Portions are too small. This is the worst experience I've ever had! Never ever would I go back. P.s I found chewed gum in my bowl of pho.. And the lady tried arguing with me and said it was onion or something. GROSS read more

Tried their pepper salted squid today for the first time and it's definitely one of the better ones out there as it was seasoned perfectly! Many Asian restaurants, Chinese and Vietnamese, tend to under-season it and I find it lacking in taste so I'd have to add more salt to it. I'm so happy to have found Pho Ton cuz there really isn't a better Vietnamese restaurant in Vancouver! read more

My favorite place to get Vietnamese food. Their Pho, bun bo hue, and fried rice is the best. I am so glad that this spot is not too far from home. I have tried too many Pho spots. This is the go to. Too bad they don't open on Sunday tho. I understand. You'll need a break from all the great service that they provide. read more

If you like clean restaurants, DON'T GO HERE!!!! We sat down at a table for four and...1) The picture hanging next to our heads was full of food stuck to it and splatters of some kind. 2) We got our drinks; my wife's tea had a bug in it. 3) Her Pho spoon had a hair in it.. 4) We ask for another: it came with old food in it. The part that bother me the most was after all this she took the tea off our bill, but none of us ate our food. They acted like it didn't matter, like this happens all the time. Apparently that's the normal standard they set there. Just keep driving and find a place that cares about your health and safety. read more

I love this place!! They have the best mi quang ever!! My siblings and I I go here all the time read more

Pho Ton 1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Would be 5 stars, if the service was better. They must have been shorthanded, only 2 people working tables. The service almost had me and my dad walk out after waiting almost 20 minutes to order and another 20 minutes to get our food. Glad we didn't, because I was very impressed with the broth's flavor of my "1C" and the quality of the ingredients in both our orders, but the portion could be bigger. The pho I had and the grilled chicken rice plate my dad ordered was really tastey, especially for a 30 degree, wet and icy day. The large bowl was the same size as the small bowl in my favorite house in Cali. We left satisfied customers and would come back when I visit the area again. read more

This is my favorite place for Vietnamese food. My family has been coming here for years. They are always busy and the primary least is so sweet and helpful, fast paced but she gets her job done and well! She remembers my order when in walk through the door. This is a hidden gem. Definitely recommend E6 the vermicelli (noodle salad) with grilled pork and an egg roll. read more

Best Pho I've had in the Couv. Good broth, super fresh veggies. We were surprised by the chicken meat as it 'seemed' like deli meat. Not sure if it was successfully sliced super thin or actual deli meat. But the great Pho flavor was there. Veggie egg roll just okay. Service prompt and efficient, they are there to get your food and clean up, that's it. Not a bad thing! One review mentioned the place was dirty so we almost didn't go. Glad we did as we found the restaurant very clean, even down to the condiment bottles! read more

Pho Ton 1 - Vietnamese Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

When a Vietnamese friend takes you for lunch, then you know the food is going to be good. It did not disappoint. The soups were amazing. Parking at thus place sucks. Glad he was driving and took me there, because unless he recommended it, I might have never of visited the great restaurant. I will always come back to this place now! read more

I'm not a master on what good pho is supposed to taste like, but this place is many levels above the other place down the street. Plus the lady that always takes my order, always has a big smile and asks how I'm doing. This is my "treat yo self" spot and I've been here over double digits now and will be working on triple digits. read more

Interesting first visit. On the up side, the service was good, the portions were good and the prices were reasonable. I had my usual combo beef pho (C1) at this restaurant and it was OK but not great. The meat was good quality and quantity with the exception of the meatball which had some unusual stuff in it. The broth was somewhat lacking in flavor. The place has its following probably because of the value and authenticity. The downside is the parking lot, location and decor. The place is clean enough but probably not a "date night" destination for many. The blinking lights in the bathroom and broken towel dispenser unfortunately made a second visit unlikely. read more

If your looking for the best pho in Vancouver, this is the place to be at. Great service, food comes out quick and it's so good. I've been coming here for over 7 years now and can't find a place that competes. The parking lot might not be the best but the food and service definitely makes up for it. Don't take my word for it, check it out for yourself and I doubt you'll be disappointed. read more

I will need to eat more to get a firmer opinion, but so far so good. If a friend hadn't directed me down here for lunch, I would have driven right past, and never looked back. But behind the chancy exterior you will find a lengthy menu of all your Vietnamese favorites. I had some beef stew soup with egg noodles (not the traditional Pho) and it was just lovely. I tiny bit of a kick to it, which was very pleasent, and quality beef bits floating throughout. I will definitely give it another try. Yes sir, there is life in Vancouver.... read more

I LOVE LOvE all of their dishes! Especially 1g it's a combination noodle soup bowl. Service is great . Parking is a little challenging at times but it's worth the wait. read more

This is the best Pho for the price and quality. I eat here once a week and haven't been disappointed yet. The restaurant has odd hours of operation as it closes the earliest of all the pho restaurants in town. This is my 1st pick when wanting Pho in Vancouver. read more

Okay. I deleted my previous review. They are back and this is the best pho in Vancouver. Try the spring rolls. They do not have sweet chili sauce so I bring my own. Happy to be a regular again. 09/17/16 update they now have sweet chili sauce. #delish read more

Pho Ton changed management/owner, it saddens me that the Pho doesn't taste the same, it went from 'great' to not so great. Sorry Pho Ton, you are not good anymore. read more

Love the server/owner Katie, she is so smart and friendly and always treat you well. She is one of kind and love love her! Bun bo hue is the best here, I've tried everywhere that have it, this pool lace is the bomb read more

Firs time in; ordered to go based off the good reviews for pho. Overall, it's pretty good but for some reason they give the eye round basically raw- had to microwave it since it didn't end up cooking in the broth. Broth was decent; noodles seemed fairly fresh and the veggies were good. Would probably come here again. Only real negative was when we called in our order and was told it would be 10 or 15 minutes and we got there after 15 minutes and waited another 20 for our food. They were busy, but would appreciate more realistic times being told. read more
