This place I believe is under new management because I don't understand how it is rated that high. The place is super sketchy looking on the outside as well as the inside. The inside looks dirty which makes me question the quality of the food. The spring rolls were poorly made as well as the peanut sauce. The meat looked extremely questionable and after taking one bite of the spring rolls I threw it away. Very disappointed. read more

I've been here many times since I was a child and the taste, price and flavor has not changed at all. This is a really affordable restaurant with really great food and taste. Customer service is not the best but it is doable. Same with cleanliness. Overall highly recommended if you're looking for a cheap place in Modesto that also has really good pho! read more

Best vermacelli in town! Always fresh and great customer service. We keep coming back!

Came in around 1pm on a Saturday and it was busy; all good I got time no problem I've been here before and remember service wasn't the greatest but I'll give it another shot. Didn't get seated had to ask if I could sit anywhere. Got a water from server and would be the last time I would have any contact from staff. I waited for 15 minutes, male server was handing out orders and another lady came in and started helping him and I thought OK cool they called for back up. 4 new patrons came in after I had and got menus and drinks while I kept getting ignored. Got up and left and began writing this review while sitting in my car thinking about going to one of the many other places here in town 2 of which are within a one mile radius. Also the male server was smoking behind the counter in front of food pick up window, albeit a vaporizer but still that's unsanitary practices for a restaurant read more

Favorite pho spot in Modesto. They have the best tasting pho at the lowest prices in Modesto. Not much else to say, its just good.

My favorite is the #29, which is the wonton and noodle soup. It is delicious, and now that the cold season is approaching, this dish definitely hits the spot! The atmosphere isn't all that fancy and it could use a new paint job but other than that, I would recommend this place! read more

I've been going to this place for 8 years now and I still love coming here to eat pho. I think it tastes authentic and it's cheap.The people are also friendly and they always prepare the food fast.I love their thai ice tea too. It's one of the best Vietnamese restaurant I've ever eaten at. Cheap, Friendly People, Good food, what more can you ask for? read more

Bad service. No smiles. In my opinion it looks like customers annoyed the lady that served there. The man was not much better. The place looked pretty empty for the "lunch rush." Would not recommend. I will not be back. There are too many other places offering similar cuisine with much better service. One word of advice to the staff: smile and be friendly to your paying customers if you want to stay in business. In the mean time, I'm off to another Pho place... read more

Never coming back. Employees need to be retrained on customer service. Nasty attitude. Do not recommend coming here.

Best pho in Modesto but customer service is horrible. And that's why I'm giving Pho Viet 3 stars!

We drove 40 mins to come to eat the beef stew pho because my friends are regulars to this place for 10 years. They still come here even after the restaurant owner changed. But honestly when we were there, I didn't think we got a good experience. First of all, the waitress's attitude was cold, and we waited like more than 15 minutes to get someone's attention to come to take order. Second, she got our order number wrong and forgot one more bowl of pho, the owner was a bit mean and unfriendly. When he gave us the order he showed some attitude, which was strange. We are here to eat , not to receive some animosity for no reason. But the food was great, in the end we didn't led the atmosphere affect our eating experience, just hope it won't happen again. For the sake of good food, I gave 2 stars instead of 1. read more

Got food poisoning on tuesday night! Got the brooly beef and seemed as something was not cooled right we felt so sick! Never eating here again i used to be a loyal customer and this was my forst time taking brocoly beef to go & will be the last read more

My husband and I always stop by after coming back to Merced from a long day of work in Stockton. I normally order #1 and the prawn with mixed vegetables. My husband's favorite dish is #56. The food is always consistent and delicious. The customer service is still poor although it's way better than the last owner. I would suggest that they check around every once in a while to fill people's water cup. Because of the food and portion, I'll leave it at 5 stars. read more

Perhaps the only place in Modesto, I've tried with mostly authentic Vietnamese food. My favorite is the all meat pho soup. Splendid with the sprouts and fresh spices. The place itself could use remodeling, but the service is fast and the price seems fair. I usually can never finish. What's even better is it's right up the street. Don't let the look turn you away. If you're looking for a healthier alternative, the choices might be a plus. read more

Favorite spot for pho and the Mongolian beef is the best among with the combo fried rice!

The Pho was the best we have had in the Modesto area. Since moving here from the bay area 12 years ago this is the first Vietnamese restaurant we enjoyed! No more driving back to San Jose for phone. read more

This place with the new owners have gone hella bad. Service is the most awful one. When my coworkers & I came in & sat ourselves, nobody acknowledged us until after 15 mins. later a couple of customers walked in & they got served right away. When the worker saw us, that's when she realized we didn't get our menus yet. When she finally came to our table with the menus, I told her that we were in a hurry. She got sassy & said, "So what do you want?" My coworkers & I looked at each other and told her we needed to look at the menu. Finally, she came back to take our orders without writing them down. 10 mins later, my coworker's order came. Another 5 mins later, my other coworker's soup came. I waited over 20 mins & mine never came after she said mine was coming soon. It came to the point that after 30 mins of waiting, I told her to cancel it. read more

Worst Vietnamese food ever. They don't even know what broken rice is. Their noodles all clump together.

3.5/5 would be a more appropriate staring label I would give this restaurant. The food is good, except that is the problem, the food not the pho. The pho is just sub par, tasting like it was made in a clear broth soup, rather than slow cooked over night from the extracts of bone marrow like every other pho place seems to have done. The taste is very unfamiliar with the typical "pho" broth found to be known and loved by many people. The grilled pork is what has saved this restaurant it is particularly good at this pho place. They offer grilled type pork that seems to have a great taste, with the portion of sauce they give you to dip it in. The sauce sees to be vinegar to an extent adding for grilled pork that is like any other. I was skeptical trying it because I love the sweet taste of Mchenry Pho's pork however it has showed me that Viet pork does not have to be sweet to taste good. It also comes with a salad that tastes ok, I am not much of a salad person, however feel that vegetables should come with every meal such as this one does. The pork at this pho as to grow on you, upon initial reaction I did not enjoy the different taste. The people there are friendly. One of the waitresses during the afternoon time is cute, and the male recognizes his usual customers and knows when you do and do not need a menu. It is relatively clean, and I have never found any thing other than food in my food lol. The styling is a little dull inside, and the chairs like the tables seem old. The environment is sub-par to say the least. The food and people are what make this restaurant a great place. There is one guy in there that smiles forever though, he creeps me out. He works in mid-day, watch out for that sneaky bastard. Also they do not accept credit cards which is a major problem for me. read more

My third time here, ordered lemon grass chicken vermicelli. Noodles mushy and over cooked, staff don't smile or engage very well. Lemon grass chicken was heavy tasting like chinese stir fry,was expecting simething not greasy. Had to ask for sauce to get the mushy noodles down. Flavors were kinda flat. Uninspiring interior. Uce coffee was tasty. Not sure I will be back, everyone gets 3 tries except my last post. read more

there are three places that i would rather eat at than anywhere else in the world, and they all share a common theme: dirt cheap food, ridiculously awesome food, and they are absolutely total dives. 1) fish tacos at the taco stand in Ensenada, Mexico. 2) Tony's Taco's taco truck in Salida, and 3) Pho Viet on Kansas in Modesto. Pho Viet was my first ever exposure to Vietnamese food and is still the standard that i compare all my others experiences with. the pho is great, the vietnamese dishes are fabulous, the selection is awesome. however, what really kidnaps my imagination and drives me crazy is their Kung Pao chicken. it's perfect. not too salty or greasy (though it's not grease free). it's nice and spicy, and is, in my oppinion, a perfect meal. Pho Viet is lacking a lot of things: the staff are friendly enough, but aren't overly inviting. The decor is just aweful. The tv is small and in the corner. they only give you one free refil on your sodas. they only take cash; no cards... but to me, it's perfect. we have had many family occasions there, including announcing to our parents that we were expecting for the first time :-D try it, you won't regret it. especially if you order the Kung Pao. read more

Love love love this place. I'm addicted to pho and this is so far the best I've found in Modesto. I usually have lunch to go and the #1 is ready in like 3 minutes. Food and prices are on point and overall a great experience. read more

Love this place! The food is always good! I always get the beef pho, chicken chow fun noodles and Thai tea with boba.

Great prices and AMAZING food! I suck at pronouncing all the Vietnamese words. . . . But I love the crunchy chow mein. The mongolian beef and kung pao chicken are favorites too. Yum! read more

Ewwww! This place reuses the basil and bean sprouts that they put on the tables I watched her bus a table and pick through the leaves that were good and throw away the used ones, while the plate was inside the bussers plastic container. Plus, I watched the lady cleaning the table, use a dirty napkin that was used by a customer and began to clean the inside of the chili jar!!! YES, the inside with a dirty used napkin!! The food is good but unfortunately I will not be returning read more

So far I've only had the pho and spring rolls. I'd say they weren't the best i've ever had, but pretty good. Service is quick & efficient but not indulgent . . . you'll have to ask for a water refill and go up to the register to pay for your meal (cash only). The restaurant space itself is very sparsely decorated and located in a depressingly dead shopping center. I almost expected a tumbleweed to blow by. read more

New to the area and was trying to find a good Pho place. This wasn't it. Spring rolls were just ok. The sauce they had to dip the rolls in had too fishy of a smell to it. I prefer the peanut sauce. I ordered the Beef stew and my son had the #8. Both our noodles looked like they were overcooked and had been sitting in the broth for days, really sticky. Service was quick, prices were good. Not sure I'll go back. Still going to look for a good Pho place. Otherwise, might have to make a trip to Gilroy! read more

So very good. Both the pho and Chinese food here are excellent. Give it a try if your near by.

Seriously good food. My favorites are Pho Ga with quails' eggs (#17) and Pork Chow Mein (#43). The noodles here are fantastic!! Sure, the restaurant decor is nothing to write home about, but the food is good, the place is clean, and the people are friendly. What more do you want!? read more

I've gone to this place before and it was good. It could have more servings though when your really hungry. I took my son (3ys old) and he loved it. We will be back but I wished there was one closer to my house. I rate a 4 star because of serving size. They need to serve more. read more

I love the chicken noodle soup pho here! Nice and cheap too! Around 6 bucks. Perhaps not the most attractive looking place on the outside or in, but the pho is definitely great! read more

Flavor is always consistent. Broth is always flavorful. I love to order the Seafood Rice noodle soup! The shrimp is delicious...very meaty. read more

Got the #20 Seafood Pho (Rice Noodle Soup), which was great as advertised on Yelp. Others with me got beef Pho, and a pork and rice dish, which they also enjoyed. Not the fanciest restaurant, but that's not what you expect when you go looking for Pho. read more

The food is great but the service is terrible. If they got rid of the waitresses and have an order station, it would be much more efficient. The most frustrating thing about this restaurant are its waitresses. The waitresses don't refill the drinks, check on the customers, or pick up the check. It gets old having to flag down one of the two waitresses because the orders didn't come out correctly (peanuts in a dish for someone allergic to peanuts), request a bigger table (because they decided to seat five adults at one table that seats four), ask for water, or ask for clean utensils. With larger groups, the waitresses don't serve everyone at the table at the same time. We had four vermicelli bowls and one of them came out after every one finished eating; that vermicelli bowl didn't have any special requests-- the one that did, came out first. The waitresses have no sense of timing. They'll drop off the bill after the order is placed, whenever they feel like it. I barely got my food and I'm starting to eat, and they swing by to drop off the bill. It's rude and feels like they want to kick you out as soon as you get your food. read more

Customer service was o.k not great but fine by me. Pho was good and came out hot/flavorful. They also make some good beef stew which I didn't expect and I enjoyed it very much and have gone back numerous times for it. Location isn't the best but hey as long as the foods good Iam happy. read more

Never been here before. Had the rare steak, flank steak and brisket pho. Excellent. Good, fast, friendly service. Would highly recommend.

The soup was good! Had some pho and it was very flavorful. The fried rolls were a little bland and so was the fish sauce. The service was ok, but not that friendly. read more

Found this place on yelp. I was a bit nervous because it was my first time coming here and the reviews gave it 4 stars. I was really craving some pha beef meatball soup. Turned out to be awesome! The broth was flavorful and delicious. The prices were cheap and definitely got more then what I paid for. My sister ordered a chicken rice plate and that was amazing as well. The staff was friendly and fast service. Over all I would 100% recommend this place and definitely bringing the whole family here. Enjoy ;)! read more

Pretty great place! Decent pricing, great food. The only thing is I wish the host lady would smile more, she always seems a little down. So don't think she's being rude, she's just very timid I feel. Other than that, pretty good place. Try the shrimp spring rolls! My favorite! read more

Currently mine and my fiancés favorite place for Pho. Love it here and the customer service is outstanding too including the wait time. If in a rush I always call ahead of time to ensure I get in and out on time. I strongly encourage everyone to give this place a try, I always leave satisfied. Two thumbs up for this place. Also it's big enough so go ahead and invite friends too. read more
