    P9 Rare Beef and Brisket Pho P11 Spicy Beef with Lemongrass Pho
    Summer T.

    Was recommended this place so we had to try it out! First impressions: prices are on the steeper side, but every restaurant is similar nowadays. I got the bun bo hue, which I loved! I'm a bun bo hue girly and was very satisfied with the flavor. I tried my bf's broth from his pho but I wasn't a big fan. It tasted sweet to me. I would come again for their bun bo hue!

    Stopped by Phoenix and stopped by this restaurant and got the steak and tendon pho. tell me why this tasted exactly like Houston pho?? SO YUMMM. The tendon was HUGE, super tender, and so flavorful. The broth was fire and I didn't even need hoisin sauce. Also got the viet coffee- was fire but a little more on the milky side. The spring rolls were good but not spectacular but it didn't even matter bc the pho was so good. I honestly didn't know Phoenix knew ball like that!! If you're craving real-deal Vietnamese pho, Song Lynn is it

    This location was surprisingly really good and I will definitely be back! The serving size was super good and the broth was divine. I was asked if I wanted a refill on water pretty often which was nice because I like my pho spicy. With that being said, the spicy pho I got wasn't really spicy, but my tolerance is also super high for spice.

    The food here is pretty good! The banh hoi and buon thit nuong were satisfying. The dishes came with more than enough greens and sauce. I just wished the dishes were served in bowls instead of plates because that made it much more difficult to eat. I've also gotten nem nuong rolls and Vietnamese coffee here during a prior visit. The rolls were delicious. The coffee was a little too sweet for my taste. Staff were attentive and the restaurant itself was clean and organized. Would come back!

    Crab Rangoon not my favorite but the inside was delicious but the texture of the outside felt off. My Singapore noodles were delicious a little to much veggies for me but overall I did enjoy it. A good lunch though next time I may try a different dish.

    P14 Chicken Pho

    We had a fantastic time during our visit. The broth in both the chicken pho and combination pho were absolutely phenomenal. The fried egg rolls were a good size for a good price. Good amount of meat with our dishes and the price was right for what we got. Overall we were very pleased with our visit. Their chili oil was very very good, I wanted to ask if it was scratch made, but didn't have the opportunity. At first we thought it was a small place, we were presently surprised to find extra seating in the back. It was a cute little place, part hole in the wall part modern chic. Our waitress was fantastic, she had recommendations, kept our drinks full, and checked in on us to make sure everything was good at all times. Next time we are out we will probably give this place another go. If you live in west Phoenix you should swing by.

    The service was amazing. Inside is booths, nice and cool inside. I got egg rolls and a rare steak and brisket phó. Everything came quickly. The eggrolls were perfectly cooked, simply delicious. The phó had great flavor. Was glad to see real Siriracha sauce not the fake crap. They had hoisin, chili oil, salt, pepper, and sugar. I traveled here for work. If I was local this would be my weekly fix. I highly recommend.

    P11. Wonton & BBQ Pork Soup
    Priscilla K.

    Song Lynn is a little hidden gem as far as I'm concerned. Went there with my husband becasue we had amassive craving for Vietnamese food and wanted to try somewhere we hadn't before. They have a wonderful little appetizer combo, the Song Lynn combo, that's great for when you can't make up your mind which delicious appetizer you want. The egg rolls and fried shrimp rolls were delightfully crispy, shattering between my teeth with each bite, and packed with so much flavor. The spring roll had a wonderful chewniess to it and was tightly rolled, which I prefer to those loose rolls that fall apart after a bite. I ordered a Thai Tea Cream Brulee with boba and the husband ordered a Lychee Sunset Smoothie. Both were refreshing and cool but not cloyingly sweet. I'd order both of those drinks again any day! He ordered the Song Lynn Combination Vermicelli Noodles dish and ate every last bite with relish. The pork was tender without being mushy, the shrimp was sweet and the noodles were plentiful. He definitely got a dish that was well worth the price. It was so good that he kept eating even when he was full because he just couldn't put his chopsticks down! I went with the Wonton and Pork Noodle soup, which was a new one for me at Vietnamese places. It's not your standard Chinese wonton noodle soup. The wontons were fried previously and a bit of a surprise. I thought I wouldn't like it but it was surprisingly good due to the wontons having a tasty filling. It had the same pork as my husband's dish, which made me super happy! And the noodles went on forever! The accompaniments like the basil, bean sprouts, and lime were fresh and a welcome addition to our meals. There was absolutely no room for dessert! The staff were amazing, very cheerful, prompt, and friendly. I'm definitely going back!

    Came back to this place today and once again ordered my favorite dish -- bun bo hue. The broth was rich, flavorful, and had a nice depth to it, just the way I remembered. I was also happy to see a generous variety of meats included, which added to the overall enjoyment of the dish. However, the only thing that didn't quite meet my expectations was the texture of the noodles. They were quite elastic and springy, which is different from the softer, more traditional rice noodles I'm used to. It's a personal preference, but it slightly took away from the authenticity for me. In addition, I tried the grilled beef rice, which was delicious. The beef was nicely seasoned and cooked just right -- tender and flavorful. What really stood out to me about this restaurant is how diverse the menu is. They offer a wide range of Asian dishes, covering different cuisines, and there's also an impressive selection of desserts. Whether you're craving something savory or have a sweet tooth, you'll likely find something here to satisfy your appetite. Overall, it's a great spot with a lot of options and consistently good flavors. I'd definitely recommend it if you enjoy trying different kinds of Asian food.

    Okay tbh great pho for Arizona, I think. Don't expect much of you're used to pho from San Jose or Orange County though. Soup was good, meat was just okay.

    Sugar cane juice
    Camilla M.

    I ordered to go, I got combination pho, shrimp and pork fresh spring rolls, bbq pork bahn mi, and sugar cane juice. The service was pretty quick. I have been wanting to try this place for a while since I have been seeing all of the positive reviews. It was a bit underwhelming for me. The sugar cane juice was expensive and bitter,( and had I'm assuming calamansi in it?) I know sugar cane juice tends to be expensive just with the labor involved in making it fresh. It did not taste all that fresh. The combination pho is good once you add all the toppings and sauce, but the flavor is not as rich as you would expect from pho. The shrimp spring rolls also were lacking flavor in comparison to other spring rolls I've had. The best thing I tried was the bbq pork bahn mi. Overall, it could've been better. I know this place is very busy usually, so maybe I need to try again and actually sit down. I will update when I try again.

After reviewing the menu we decided on Lemongrass chicken with vegetables, beef with vegetables, beef vermicelli, and shrimp vermicelli. Service is always fast here. I ordered the lemongrass chicken. It is pretty spicy. The flavoring was really nice with a fish sauce in it. It was probably spicier than I wanted. Think I'll go back to my noodle order next time. It was good to try something different though. I would give my dish four stars. Otherwise everything else gets five stars. Free street parking outside.

The restaurant seems to charge for every little thing and the staff is slow and forgetful. Having to get up so many times just to remind them about our order is simply not acceptable. I really hope things improve, especially for long time customers who have supported this place for years Ambience The ambience was very cute and charming. The space feels inviting and has a pleasant atmosphere. Food The food was good. We ordered the catfish spring rolls and they were delicious once everything finally made it to the table. Service The service was the biggest issue and it was very disappointing, especially since my family has been coming here for 3 years. Parts of our order were missing, including several side dishes and even the sauce for the spring rolls. We asked for a cup of ice and that was missing too. We waited about 10 minutes after receiving the catfish before the vegetables were brought out and we had to keep asking for simple items. It's a shame because things taste best when the food is still hot, but the catfish was already cold once they brought out all the small dishes that came with the main dish. Because the staff was moving so slowly, we ended up walking to the counter (6 times) just to follow up on things that should have been brought to us without asking. It honestly felt like we were serving ourselves. There should be no excuse why service was so slow because there's two waitress and only one other table. The Vietnamese coffee tasted sickly sweet and burnt. After taking one sip, I asked to switch to a Thai tea, hoping it would be better, but that drink was also extremely sickenly sweet. I returned it after one sip as well. I was surprised to see that I was charged for both drinks and was told it was because I drank them, which did not feel fair at all. They even charged us for the lemon slices.

The place is very clean inside, nicely decorated, and had background music playing (I hate places that are dead silent). A nice spot for me and my girlfriend to enjoy our lunch and talk over a bowl of pho. I was intrigued by the veggie pho because they used baby corn, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and asparagus. I don't really like vegetable broth so I asked if the broth could be their beef broth which they said was ok. My girlfriend had the chicken pho like she usually does and we shared a spring roll. I have to say that I was blown away with how delicious my pho was. It had such a nice clean beef flavor that you love when enjoying pho. The vegetables worked incredibly, but I' sure any of their beef options are stellar (I just wanted veggies). No doubt one of the more memorable broths that's I've had in a long time! My girlfriend's pho was also super flavorful and had a nice aroma as well. She ended up eating all the broth and had a bunch of leftover noodles and chicken. I would really recommend not serving the chicken diced in cubes because you can't get those nice chopsticks full of noodles and chicken. The roll we ordered was good, but probably not something I'd get again. They use filet mignon for it, but I think I would prefer to have them use a less expensive cut and give me 2X the meat. Finally our server Enrique was cool and very attentive and let us know about their Sunday pho special which was great. This place might not be as traditional as the other places where you see the entire family working and have the beat up menus, but it's they definitely make pho worth checking out for yourself.

I think this version tasted the closest to the usual beef pho I remember having before being pescatarian. While I didn't love the baby corn topping, I did enjoy the asparagus and overall I would come back for the vegan broth! Price and portions in the pho also were fair. I got the small size and it was more than enough. The service was also very efficient and helpful. I asked for chili oil and someone (I think the owner) also gave me their special chili crunch they make! Unless you're a big fan of spring rolls, I'd say the only thing I'd skip next time is the spring roll. While it was fresh and tasted good, it wasn't anything different than what I've had in the past for cheaper prices. Overall though I really enjoyed my time there and I would definitely come back for the pho!

We ordered a BBQ pork banh mi, spring rolls, and a pork eggroll noodle bowl (which is my newest obsession). The vegetables on the sandwich were fresh and flavorful; we had some inconsistent knife cuts on the pork resulting in "a big 'ole hunk of meat" on one side of the sandwich, but no big deal. A few issues for me, which may not be a deterrent to you: The rice noodles were overcooked to my taste and my noodle bowl was missing the crunch of bean sprouts! Those same mushy noodles were in the spring rolls. We both didn't care for the addition of bacon in the spring roll and the peanut sauce was the consistency of peanut butter, but we mixed it with siracha and made our own little spicy sauce. All in all a friendly, clean, and inviting place!
