In Modesto there is not much asian food that is worth a damn. When i want pho, i go here or to phoenix noodle house in downtown. I come here for pho sometimes 3x a week and the broth never disappoints. Sometimes they skimp on meat, tripe, and tendpn...but when they dont, its 2nd to only Phoenix noodle hpuse. read more

There was a damn hair in my shrimp fried rice. They took it to the back took the hair out,added 2 more shrimps, and moved the rice around. The waiter lady was very rude. But there egg roll are very good. And the sweet and sour chicken read more

I love the #20 seafood noodles with an ice tea. The quality is always consistent and the taste is outstanding. Very tasty. Funny wait staff as well. read more

Great place for lunch. Will be coming back. Try the crab stir fry if you got the doe.... It's about 25 bucks. Tummy.....

Worst Service Ever. I was with a group of 3. Sat us down and waited 20 minutes to order. Never gave us water. Plus it was NOT busy. Ordered a pho and two rice porridge two waters and hot tea. Our ordered came came with on two pho and a rice porridge. Told her we ordered two porridge. By the time the second porridge came it was 15 minutes later again. The water still never came or even our hot tea. Never apologize or even gave water at the end. Never Again will come here. read more

This place has REALLY good pho!!! However- my friend and I noticed something very disturbing.... they reuse the sprouts and basil that other tables haven't used????! We both witnessed it. Btw one of us had a cold. read more

This restaurant was lacking in so many things. Here is a list: - Servers were rude and snobby. When I asked about the menu items, my server gave a big sigh and did not help much. - Food was very bland and not flavorful like normal Vietnamese cuisine. - The interior is musky and unappealing - The wait for my food was unbelievable. Vietnamese food, as many experts would know, is very speedy. - The wait for my check was unbelievable (server complaint again). -The list of desserts and drinks were not very authentic for a Vietnamese cuisine. - I went with a Vietnamese friend who heard the servers speaking in Vietnamese about the other customers, which is very rude. - Not family friendly. - Not an ideal restaurant for romance-themed dates. - Interior needs redecorating and updating. There were a few things that made my trip not as bad. Prices were fairly reasonable. My suggestion: skip this restaurant and check out other Vietnamese restaurants in the area for actual "AUTHENTIC" Vietnamese cuisine. read more

I really don't understand why this place has high ratings. It was my first time there, so first of all, I felt like the place was a wee bit sketchy. It was probably just me. Then I went inside thinking there would be a few people here and there based on the ratings I saw, but there was no one at all. What bothered me the most was our waitress. SHE WAS ON HER PHONE THE WHOLE TIME. Literally, when she came to take our orders, she was on the phone. She wouldn't look at us at all. And I'm not exaggerating. I was hoping she would check on us, I wanted to get a drink re-fill but I could see her next to the cash register on her phone. At first I thought maybe she was taking orders through her phone, but when we went to pay the bill, she was still on her phone and all she was doing just playing a game. The whole time we were paying the bill, her eyes were glued to her phone. I was EXTREMELY upset with that. The food was good, thus the one star. But the service was ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL. Please do look at other pho restaurants because that was the most horrible service I have ever gotten in my entire life. read more

this place has awesome chicken soup. i love all the fresh greens and garnishes for it. i have always had very friendly, fast service. the food is cheap but i felt the quality was high. my friend got fried rice and i think she liked it. but all i can vouch for is the delicious chicken soup. read more

This place is alright, though it is one of the better pho choices in town. Quality authentic asian restaurants are far and few in Modesto and if you want great pho, I would try somewhere else like the Bay Area. It might not have the most attractive location or decor, but the food is good and very affordable. Like other pho places, their #1 dish is the standard pho dish with all the beef fixings. The broth has a strong beefy yet slightly herbal flavor without the excess salty taste. They don't have quite the variety of rice dishes as other places, but the quality is fine. They do have a lot of Chinese-style stir fries. read more

I don't understand how this place has such high ratings. As soon as the waitress brought my pho to the table, I knew just by looking at the broth that it will not be good. The broth was murky dark broth. I took a couple of bites and set the entire bowl aside, uneaten. The combination fried rice was soggy and salty. My husband had the bun bo hue and said it was just so-so. I guess you can't expect much for Modesto. read more

Pho Viet is probably the best Vietnamese Restaurant in Modesto. I have some qualms with sub par sanitation, but if you're willing to ask for new utensils or bust out your pocket Germ-X, you'll have a pleasant meal just about every time. They are probably contenders for the best eggrolls on the globe also. Some minor remodeling and more conscious sanitation would bring Pho Viet to a five easily. read more

only been here once. the food was very delicious. got the shrimp eggrolls with fish sauce dip it was very good! also ordered some stir fried noodles with vegetables and meat and it was tasty. may not be the best viet restaurant, but it's a good one especially here in modesto read more

very good seafood noodle with soup on the side. the egg rolls were delicious. great food in modesto!

Visiting from New York State, was Searching for authentic "not a chain but quick" food between San Francisco and Sequoia. The Pho in the name caught my attention ( huge Pho fan!). So glad we gave it a try. WOW. Spring rolls were awesome; beef Pho and shrimp seafood noodle soup were HUGE hot and delicious. Hands down best Pho I've had. Super reasonable and quick! Worth a stop!!!!! read more

This place looks unsanitary inside. It looks dirty and cheap. The Mongolian beef is good. Ingot the phone and it was gross. I won't be back due to the cleanliness. read more

This used to be our favorite place to get pho' and bbq pork sandwiches. Unfortunately since the owner change the service has become terrible, the portions are smaller, and the wait for your food unreasonable. Expect to be late if you are going for a quick lunch. read more

This place is the go to place for pho if you're lazy and don't want to make your own. I prefer my pho homemade but this has got to be the closest to homemade there is, here in Modesto. I have been to many pho restaurants in the area and had terrible experiences, from being served cold pho and having no eye contact whatsoever with my service. But not here at Pho Viet. Their service is excellent for only having two servers most of the time. Occasionally they're down to one, but she does an amazing job nonetheless. I will be back since I plan on having many lazy days :P read more

I miss the first owners pho soups tasted better with the old recipe. Tastes ok now but it definitely tasted better with the old owners.

Great food! Great prices! I have eaten at countless Vietnamese food restaurants, and this place easily "takes the cake". I agree with Eric L. that the taste is unfamiliar, but that's what sets this place apart from the rest. The pho is amazing. I don't think that Eric L. has done his homework on this restaurant as I think they have been around for close to 20 years which is like eons for restaurants, they have never needed to be saved. Thanks for all the great food!!! read more

Food was okay. Service was terrible, waitress was very rude for his age you would think he'd be more mature for his age . Never going back, don't recommend. read more

First time there and it was the worst experience of my life. The waitress was very rude to me and my family. When i had ask for extra condiments she gave a rude comment back saying "whatever we have on the table is what we have". Food is not that good either, i had found 2 pieces of hair in my noodle soup. I do not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Great birthday dinner with my family. Quick service. Good appetizers, spring rolls and egg roll. Each main dish was flavorful and well presented. read more

By far the best Pho around I been to all of the spots in modesto and this is the tastiest also the best friend rice I have ever had

Family was hungry for Pho so we decided to try this place. Worse service ever. Finally got up and left. Only one waiter and then a couple of other people came in and sat down after us and a gentlemen went to them to get their order and we were still looking around for someone to get our order but didn't. If you have all the time in the world a person can try this place but we will never go there again or recommend it. Shouldn't even give them a star. read more

The egg noodle soup with chicken was excellent. The tastiest broth in modesto imo. Ask for extra noodles if you're extra hungry. We'll be back! read more
