I've been on a pho kick lately and this is a go to spot for me. Wish they offered lunch specials…read morebecause I order midday often and many places do offer lunch specials. Pros: consistency, great pho, great spring rolls. AMAZING chili oil - I bought the to go version to take home and it's the spiciest chili oil I've ever had at a pho place (which is a big deal to me!) Con: order delivery lately and their drinks aren't ready by the time I'm picking up. That's it! Restaurant is clean, service is good. No reason to go into detail when things are pretty straightforward.

This is my third time having Pho and I must say that this place is going to be my GO TO!!! I've…read moretried one other pho spot in Indy, but Pho 21 checked all the boxes for me. Initially when walking in, no one was dining in. I was going to place my order to go, but decided to dine in. It was pretty quiet, clean and open. It was almost closing time and a few employees were cleaning. It smelled so clean throughout; making for an even better dining experience. The service was great! I didn't have to wait long at all before my bowl was coming out. I went with beef and brisket pho. The condiments were fresh. The sauces were full. Before adding any sauces, I wanted to try the broth by itself. And when I did, that's when I knew that Pho 21 has secured me as a customer. I truly didn't have to add any sauces, but what is pho if I didn't add some razzle dazzle. I left with my tastebuds satisfied and lips with a slight sizzle. Ha! After all, if your lips don't sizzle, did you really have Pho? Ha!

After perusing the menu, i settled on a vegetarian spring roll the Pho Special, a South Vietnamese style with thin noodles, beef flank, tendon, tripe and meatballs. It came customizable, of course with basil, beansprouts, hot pepper slices, hot sauce and lime. The initial taste of the broth was delicious, well balanced and well seasoned.

They offer such an eclectic blend of flavors. They also have a menu for coffee, teas, and smoothies. The staff is friendly and polite. I ordered a Banh Mi at the counter and the clerk was patient as I pondered the menu. I paid at the counter then was given a number and found a seat. Soft music plays overhead. There is some comfy seating, but I chose a table. There is interesting decor to admire while I wait. My Meatball Bahn Mi (sandwich) came out quickly and smelled super fresh. I love the blend of cilantro, carrots and jalapeños with the meatballs. The sauce is spicy sweet and the bread fresh and chewy. The sandwich is perfect. I wanted to try one of their mochi donuts or a smoothie, but I'm watching calories. I will be back a different day for an ubi mochi donut. Restrooms are clean and modern. Parking is easy in the large lot.

The place was a lil hot but it was a very hot day outside so understandable. Plenty of seating where you order first and pay first, get a number and choose your table. I ordered the vermicelli noodle dish with egg rolls and a fried pork chop. We also got crab Rangoon and spring rolls. For me, the veggies didn't taste very fresh. I enjoyed the pickled veggies and the egg rolls. I think I was expecting more flavor in the pork and sauce. The spring rolls had bean sprouts in them which is not typical and changed the flavor profile a little bit. I'm a little particular as I just got back from Vietnam. It was way too hot for me to want to try a pho bowl but it's definitely on my list to come back when it's cooler. Love the noodle soup options and appreciate that they have such a full menu that offers Vietnamese, Chinese as well as Thai dishes.

The restaurant itself is very clean and well maintained, with lovely interior decor. Finally, don't even get me started on the food. Every dish we had was fresh and extremely flavorful. Noodles were perfectly chewy, the Bahn Mi had a perfectly baked, shatteringly crisp bun and tender meat. The beef soup was so rich and aromatic. I live about an hour and a half away, without access to a car, and I would still choose to come back here if given the chance. Mark my words, I will return for this diamond of a hole-in-the-wall establishment!

Had to add a good amount of hoisin and siracha. Would go again, but still trying to find a good vegan pho and bahn mi place. Plus side- tofu fried separately from the meat dishes.

Most spring rolls I have had were overpowered with either mint or lemongrass, but not these. They were fantastic. Nice and refreshing. The pho didn't disappoint either. The broth was flavorful and not overpowering, and I actually took a lot of it home because it was a lot of food (it was the regular size. The large would have been unreal). The service was really good, and they staff were really attentive. I will point out that there was a sign at the register that said they would not remake a dish just because it was too spicy. I had to laugh. Know your limitations folks!

The pork bahn mi and a lime aid was the perfect pairing. And it was under $15! There's no mayo or anything which I appreciate! Ask for a lil extra VN butter to ensure the sandwich isn't too dry for you! Service was good and there's a lil bench to sit on as you await your To-go. Enjoy!

First time coming to Eating Fresh located in Broad Ripple area. It's a beautiful place that feels…read morelike a modernized version of all the vietnamese restaurants I grew up going to with lanterns from the Hoi An area hung up throughout. There's plenty of seating and service was great. As I looked through the menu the dish that stood out to me was the thịt kho trứng (caramelized pork and egg rice dish). This isn't a dish that is usually in menus. It's a special dish made at home usually reserved for the lunar new year. After living away from family for a year now, this dish felt like a piece of home and comfort. The flavor of the pork egg dish is absolutely delicious. While this dish is typically supposed to be made with pork belly, chef Ricky substitutes it with pork shoulder for a more familiar taste/texture to our Midwestern community. I'm not mad honestly. The meat was so tender and pulls apart easily to eat with the rice which means it was braised long enough. I only ate half of the serving as it feels like a generous serving. I enjoyed that it was paired with slides tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce and pickles veggies. The only thing missing was the nước chấm dipping sauce. The chè ba màu three color dessert is also another home away from home dish that instantly brings me back to my mom's house. The pandan jelly, red beans, coconut sauce and mung bean combine together so well and it was definitely a splurge to enjoy something so delicious. Thanks for a cozy, comforting meal. I'll definitely be back again when I'm feeling home sick.

So me and my girlfriend were super excited to try this food experience from all of the TikTok…read moreposts, we actually flew in from Vegas for a few things from visiting friends and family, but also to try this restaurant. Unfortunately almost everything was disgusting. The shrimp on the stick was enjoyed by her, the egg rolls were gross. She liked the cooked octopus but I really didn't even enjoy the pho , everything was like warm or not cooked all the way, for the rice paper rolls came out and served with UNDERCOOKED PORK!! Who is eating cold pork that is pink in the middle? like the entire middle was pink! Not a small part of the pork. We noticed mold on the desert and immediately asked for the check. The best thing out of the tasting experience was the pork bon and even that was lukewarm. All in all I would say this place could be good for people who havnt tried Vietnamese food, but for someone to go as far as having egotistical writings on the wall with his name after them....like some kind of phenomenal chef....you at least have to know how to cook pork. Every meat dish was either over seasoned, or undercooked. Our server Ursula was actually the best thing and even made our day. She will make you smile super funny and loved her company. Lastly, one thing I would mention....my gf has serious pet dander allergies....and there was not a single animal in that restaurant, once she tried the pork on the stick...immediately started sneezing, coughing, and had trouble breathing....take with that what you will....(could be using certain meats) long story short we wouldn't come here if you paid us.

Today I went off script. I ordered the #29, Pho Suon Bo, pho with beef rib, and I am genuinely glad…read moreI did. The portion arrived looking like something the Jedi Council would have sent as a diplomatic gift. The rib meat was falling off the bone in the way that only happens when someone in that kitchen actually paid attention, tender, rich, and worth every credit of the $30 price tag. They bring the usual sides: bean sprouts, sliced jalapenos, lime wedges, and fresh basil. They also brought out a small plate and a knife to handle the rib, which was a thoughtful touch that saved me from an otherwise undignified situation. Once the meat was cut and ready I did what any serious pho person does and built my dipping sauce on the small plate: chili oil, a small amount of sriracha, and hoisin. I am told that this is the traditional way to approach pho. You preserve the integrity of the broth and dip your noodles, meat, and vegetables as you go. Dumping everything into the bowl is a valid personal choice, but it is not the way of the Jedi. My son stuck with the reliable Pho Special plus extra noodles at $16 plus $2 for the extra noodles, which remains the best value play on the menu for a bowl that genuinely satisfies. Neither of us left disappointed, which at Pho Tasty is essentially a guarantee at this point. Five stars, no hesitation. The #29 is a special occasion bowl. The house special is an every visit bowl. Both are missions worth repeating. The Force is strong here.
