Very authentic and delicious. I came in for lunch on a Monday. Many other restaurants were closed…read morebut not this one. Friendly service from an older Vietnamese man with and English menu if needed. I got the fried spring rolls, pho, and draft beer. The spring rolls were the bomb. I could've eaten a dozen. The pho was good but came with the basil and sprouts already (instead of them on the side as I'm used to). If you need a lot of chili you might need to ask for more. Maybe this place is is only 3 or 4 stars somewhere else but here in the foothills of the Alps it is 5 for sure!

We were in Salzburg to see the Christkindlmarkt and we wanted something to eat other than wurst…read more This restaurant was a block or so from the square with the gold ball. The pho was good and hit the spot on a cold and drizzly day. The food was a little different from Vietnamese food that I've had in the US, but it was still tasty. The owners were very friendly and hard working. They spoke Vietnamese and German with a bit of English.

We were headed out for a traditional, Austrian meal (walking in the rain), when we passed Pho 18…read more My girls both said "Pho!" After a week of wurst, I had to admit a bowl of hot noodles sounded good. First, we shared an order of fresh spring rolls. The spring rolls were exactly as we expected them to be, but they were served with a sweet dipping sauce as opposed to the ubiquitous peanut sauce we get at home. Not a bad change. While not exactly the same as the pho we're used to eating in Southern California, the pho at Pho 18 was satisfying. Unlike the pho at home, which is served with a big plate of bean sprouts, sliced jalapeños, basil and lime wedges, this came with a bit of shredded iceberg lettuce, a lemon wedge, and a tiny slice of Thai chili. The meat wasn't the thin shaved beef we find at home, but rather small chunks. It was tender, though. The broth wasn't as flavorful - I suppose they need to make some accommodations for EU palates, but they had a sriracha and fish sauce on the table which we used to adjust to our liking. One of my girls had the bun which also was good. The owners were attentive and friendly - surprised that we knew the Vietnamese names for menu items. Prices for this kind of cuisine are higher in Salzburg - (€ 8,50) than we would pay at home, where a big bowl of pho is just $5. But, if you're craving pho, you won't be disappointed.
