This was my first time in. It was clean, nice earthy wood decor, we were seated promptly. Our food came out in minutes. I ordered the regular size and should have gotten the junior size. It was a massive bowl of pho. I think the meatball is better than the chicken. The restrooms were clean too. Saw they have their own app for ordering food for delivery or pickup. All staff we interacted with were friendly, easy to understand as well. I will go back
Need soup on a cold day? Pho is a fantastic option! Tried this really cute place that is next to one of my favorite other restaurants and I was not disappointed! Generous portions, quick service and a pretty large selection of non meat options. Give this a try if you are in the area!
Love coming here when I'm craving pho because they have such a huge menu and variety of flavors, including some more adventurous options. The ingredients are always super fresh. It's a pretty new restaurant so the interior has a nice modern vibe. Service is usually quick whether we dine in or order takeout ahead of time.
Loved this place! The service was quick and friendly, and the decor makes it such a nice place to enjoy a meal. The food was amazing--specifically the summer rolls (the egg and Chinese sausage combo is so good!). I got the small combination pho and was stuffed; they don't skimp on the meat or tripe. Will definitely be back!
11/22/25 visited for lunch and their pho is consistently good. This is the second time in two weeks I've been here for lunch. If you enjoy temp hot flavorful pho and a wide menu of options, come here and enjoy!
The best pho around! We truly loved it! We will be coming back, very laid back place no one really bothers you (they let you eat). Nice place with little history on walls. Service was a little slow but still thankful! The Thai tea tasted like coffee instead of the tea... (only bad experience) but still would come back for the food and try a different tea!
My husband and I went here for the first time today for pho and it was super good. We both got the pholicious but I got extra noodles in mine. When they say extra noodles, they mean extra noodles. I was expecting just like a bit more but I'm pretty sure it was like double the original serving, which I am not complaining about because they were good. I did like how they gave extra stuff on the side in case you didn't want bean sprouts or cilantro in your pho at the start. The brown sugar milk tea was also really good. It was sweet but not too sweet, so it was perfectly balanced. In terms of the service, our waitress was really nice and once she got our food ordered it came out within minutes. Definitely would come here again for pho or even just the milk tea!
I absolutely loved it. This is some great food. My wife says of it: that's wonderful. I always love the spring rolls with peanut sauce. My P2 dish was amazing. She also really liked the R9 that I got. Oldest: it's delicious. I love the unique flavors. The food is really great. It's really hearty. The flavors are unique but delicious. Second: that food was so good. Um. I liked the broth definitely the best. Third: she likes the Boba. Fourth: not really verbal, but she pounded her food. She ate it all. I liked the noodles and I liked juicy stuff (broth).
Visiting Dayton and stopped by Wat da Pho for lunch. Ambience is nice and place is very spacious and clean. Not too busy at noon on a Saturday. Service was friendly and our party of 3 was seated quickly. Food was ok, but maybe we didn't order the right things. Usually I order pho but wanted to branch out. We tried: Crispy spring rolls - Good, crispy and not too greasy. Well filled with cabbage, carrot, vermicelli noodle. Couldn't taste the taro Fried chicken with sriracha sauce - amazing. The chives on top really brought it together. Perfect crunch, flavor was amazing, chicken was tender/moist and cooked through. Golden seafood noodles - meh, the noodles themselves were kind of mushy and slimy, overcooked. The vegetables and seafood were fine. The sauce was ok, nothing special, heavy on black pepper. Kill da cook noodles - friend got this. She said it was pretty much just Buldak noodles with some beef and cabbage topping. Not very spicy for her, but her tolerance is pretty high Banh Mi - fried got this. She enjoyed it and it looked pretty good. Drinks - strawberry milk tea and salted Viet coffee were reportedly delicious. Would recommend this place, just maybe don't get the stir fry noodle dishes.
Great little place. I was in Dayton for the second week of a 2-week stint for work and found this recommendation. The name grabbed me immediately and the reviews made it more appealing. The area experienced the most snowfall in several years so there was still snow everywhere outside. It was Sunday late afternoon about 4pm. I made it to the parking lot and as I walked in, I took note of this United Nations plaza and wondered if the other neighboring international restaurants were also good. I stayed focused and walked into a nice spacious dining area. I was seated immediately. It was not full but it was busy. There were "to go" orders coming in and out throughout my visit - which is also a good sign. One wall showcased the Vietnamese culture. That was a nice touch. I ordered the crab Rangoon and fried egg roll appetizers. They arrived quickly and were tasty. My main entree was the P7 which was the Seafood Pho. It came in a large bowl steaming hot. I added some Hoisin sauce and slurped my way through all the seafood goodies. It was great. The wait staff were attentive and their service was great. I added this one to a Dayton fav for me. Try it, you won't be disappointed.
There is a couple option based upon the topping options. You can always custom with add-ons. I got The Meat Sweat, which come with sliced steak, brisket, meatballs, tendons, tripe and beef short rib. To enjoy, you can either put all the ingredients right at the beginning. Or you can eat it like a mini hot pot and dip the noodles/toppings as you eat. Make sure to blow before you slurp every bite. Trust me, the stone bowl keep the residual heat well and the broth would be stay hot throughout. They now have two locations [Beavercreek and Huber Heights] and this stone pho bowl is only available at the Beavercreek location.
They have expanded the menu since we were there last, but it still fantastic. We started with brown sugar milk and Thai tea with soft spring tools and crab Rangoon. We had Vietnamese house and shrimp udon. It's a chilly evening the udon is delicious.

I'm fairly new to the Dayton area, so I went here for the first time after reading some reviews to satisfy my pho craving. Food: I ordered some spring rolls, a small "what da pho", and a bbq pork bahn mi to-go. Spring rolls were typical. Nothing spectacular but not horrible. The small pho was the smallest bowl of pho I have ever gotten from a pho restaurant. It was perfect size for me because I usually can never finish a small. I'm very critical of pho because I'm from Seattle, Washington where there is a pho restaurant on every corner. I tasted the broth before adding anything to it. It had flavor, but wasn't blown away by it. It was a little oily and kinda sweet. Never in my life have a finished a bowl of pho with meat leftover. I always finish with more noodles in my bowl. That being said, I think the proportion of noodle to meat was off. The bahn mi was tasty and definitely satisfied my craving. I'd like to come back to try some of their drinks and desserts as I was too full to try any. Service: my pho came out before my spring roll which I thought was weird. Usually spring rolls come out first as they are appetizers. Workers were friendly and checked in on us regularly. One thing I didn't like was that they have spoons and forks wrapped up in napkins in a basket on the table. I use chopsticks and soup spoon, so if I needed a napkin, I had to unroll a fork and spoon and have them wash those just so I could use the napkin around them. They should provide extra napkins in the basket or provide customers with more as they are seated. Overall: I wasn't too impressed but it satisfied my cravings. I'll be back to try out other things on their menus. I have not tried Linh's or xuan so I can not compare to other restaurants in the area. read more
BLUF: Good Pho; Military discount! Best for rainy weather; great atmosphere! Quick service! Coming from Las Vegas where there are a lot of authentic Vietnamese cuisine, I was a little skeptical about the place once I read the name of the restaurant. However, it was all good! Pho was great; totally fulfilled my craving. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very modernized, nothing I was used to compared to a trad Vietnamese restaurant. One think I would say is that I wish the Large was a little bit bigger, with more meat as well. Nonetheless, great food! read more

I love pho. I could almost eat it every day...almost. Obviously, I was excited that Beavercreek was getting a pho restaurant. I've been to Wat da Pho a handful of times for lunch since it opened; once during its soft opening, another visit a week after its grand opening, and once each month since February. In that time, Wat da Pho has smoothed out its rough spots (service was an issue during the soft opening) and has really begun to hit its stride on all fronts. Wat da Pho's dining room isn't large. In truth, Wat da Pho is one of the smaller pho places that I've ever been. It seems to get a good amount of lunch business with many of the crowd coming from nearby WPAFB. As a result, you may be in for wait for a table depending on the day and time you visit. Wat da Pho offers a single menu for lunch and dinner. Since opening, the menu has evolved, adding small sized bowls of their soups and several new items across the board. Prices have held stable and, for the most part, while offering good portion sizes and solid quality for the price. Over the course of my multiple visits, I've sampled most of the usual suspects that you'd normally find at a restaurant like this. I've had the Spring Rolls/Goi cuon ($3.75), which were two nicely sized rolls, seemingly freshly made with pork, shrimp, vermicelli noodles, and mint. It's definitely one of the better renditions I've found in the local area. The peanut sauce accompaniment was thinner, less peanut-ty than others I've had, but still possessed good flavor. The Vietnamese Ham Sub/Banh mi thit nguoi ($4) was a solid effort. The sandwich had an ample amount of meats and fresh, colorful vegetables inside for a visual and textural contrast. While I can only imagine how a proper banh mi baguette should taste, I found Wat da Pho's bread to possess good flavor with a crispy outer crust, yet still light and reasonably airy inside. For the price, it was a good deal. The Bun Bo Hue ($8.75), a generous-sized bowl of soup with a spicy lemongrass beef broth, thick rice noodles, chunks of coagulated pig's blood, and Hue ham, was flavorful, yet surprisingly light. You could definitely taste the lemongrass, which was nicely balanced by the other notes of the broth. While I personally like the pig's blood in my soup, be forewarned that it's in there. While I don't know for certain, but I imagine you may request that it not be added. However, I enjoyed the iron-y notes of the blood and the flavor and textural contrasts it brought to the bowl. Last, but not least, I've tried both the large and small sizes of its namesake pho, Wat da Pho/Pho dac biet du thu ($9/$10.50), a traditional beef pho with sliced eye of round, meatballs, beef tendon, and beef tripe. In my mind, Wat da Pho's pho stock has definitely become better refined since its soft opening becoming a bit meatier, better seasoned, and more balanced in its flavor. However, it's still cleaner, lighter bodied, with more pronounced sweet notes than most that I've had. In both sizes of pho, I received a good amount of noodles, eye of round, meatballs, tendon and tripe. However, I'd rate the large bowl as a better value as the large bowl was, to my eye, appreciably larger for only a $1.50 price difference. I like Wat da Pho. I've been very pleased with its improvements in service, adjustments to its menu, and seeming refinements to its food. Wat da Pho will continue to be in my regular rotation of places to eat. read more

4.25. Really good spring rolls. Pho is good kind of sweet. Not a great amount of meatball or steak but adequate. Jalapeños are HOT! Good parking, in a strip mall near the mall. Very clean establishment. Not noisy. All in all a good bowl of pho. read more

We dined here on a Sunday night and the place was pretty empty. I love the convenient location of it being in Beavercreek. Nothing too spectacular compared to Linh's and Xuans. It satisfies my craving when I want some pho. I do like this place more than Linh's though. Service was prompt and the food came out quickly. We were able to dine here quickly and go. They offer military discount. :) read more

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE!!! I hope you felt the enthusiasm behind that because it is legit. I'm basing this review on a few visits, not just one, and each time my experience has been great. Don't be fooled by the strip mall exterior. The interior is very modern and fresh with about 10 tables to seat yourself at. Quickly after taking a seat, a member of the staff brings over the menus and explains anything you aren't familiar with. Very prompt and friendly service. The food....oh the food! Obviously you need to try the Pho, it's in the name of the place after all. I've had the Pho (thin sliced beef) and the Pho Up (thin sliced beef AND meatballs). Extremely generous portions, enough to share or to take home half. Contrary to other reviews I've read about this place, I found the broth to be flavorful and well-seasoned on it's own. I add my own mix of ingredients - sprouts, cilantro, hoisin sauce, a splash of hot sauce, and lime. And what I really like about the Pho at this place compared to that at other restaurants in the area is the broth to meat/noodles ratio. Packed full of noodles and meat rather than skimpy portions swimming in a pool of broth. You will get full off the soup alone. I also really enjoy the egg rolls here. The appetizer order includes three mini pork egg rolls fried to a delightful crispiness with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. As good as the Pho is, my absolute favorite thing on the menu is the drink on the back called Fruity da Boody. I had to try one after seeing a picture shared by another Yelper (thank you!) and it did not disappoint! It reminded me of a milkshake almost with the sweetness of fresh fruit and milk. An absolute must try! Oh and did I mention during my most recent visit that Michael Jackson music videos were playing on the tvs the entire time?! And just when I thought this place couldn't get any more awesome. I'd give them 6 stars if I could. read more

Wat da Pho definately holds up to its name! I state this because after 15 minutes of waiting a server appeared with two waters, which is great however, we were never asked what we would like to drink and as quickly as she appeared-she vanished. Needless to say the server didn't take our order at that time, leaving us to wait another ten minutes or more! Once the server arrived, to take our order, our glasses of water were empty. The server didn't returned to fill our drinks. Our food arrived about 15 minutes later.... the kicker? Our glasses of water were never refilled, like originally requested, so we ate our entire meal waiting on ice cubes to melt to have a sip. The atmosphere is rather rustic sitting approximately 85 guest. Although it was lunch time, around noon, the service was awful!!! The food was ok... nothing earth shattering... basically flavorless! I had the chicken pho and it was more like chicken noodle soup without any, and I mean ANY flare... so, with all that being said, "Wat da Pho!" read more

Decent, not memorable. Several foreign nationals inside which I thought was reassuring. However, the food was somewhat americanized and not entirely authentic IMHO. I got N5, the whole shebang. Chicken, shrimp and eggrolls over vermicelli noodle salad. It was tasty even though i only got three shrimp. The eggrolls could have been cut into pieces that could be picked up with chopsticks. I've had Bon thit nuong tom nuong on several occasions at hole in the wall type places and this was a different style then I've had before. MY wife got R8, mi bo sate. It was NOT spicy as indicated. The beef was exceptionally tender and tasty! Service was so so, I asked for lemon or lime for my water and never got it. I had to walk up to the cash register to pay, never got a check/bill. All in all i would recommend it. read more

It's only been two days since their grand opening but Wat Da Pho is already winning. We're rounding up to 5 stars from 4.8 because that just seems fair since there is a little room for improvement. Speed of Service: 5/5 We placed the order when we arrived and were told it would be about 15 minutes. It was done right on time. Something else that was nice was being greeted as soon as we walked through the door. Food Quality: 4.4/5 Our order tonight was the Summer Rolls (5/5), Dumplings (5/5), Pho Jr. (4/5; broth could have been a bit more flavourful), Pork Chop & Rice (3/5; pork chop was a bit overcooked and chewy, but flavour was good), and Chicken Curry (5/5). There is definitely some room for improvement, but overall the food was very good and we'll be having more soon for sure. Just a quick note about the menu: There is a little bit of confusion on the menu as there are a couple of items, like the Chicken Curry, that could use a better description since there were ingredients included that were unexpected. Pricing: 5/5 For the quality of the food and the portions provided the pricing here is very reasonable. Very affordable for almost every demographic around here including university students. Depending on level on hunger one could easily eat here on less than $10. We fed 3 hungry adults on $28.49. Customer Service: 5/5 In addition to being greeted as soon as we walked in we were also given waters while we waited, which was unexpected considering we ordered to go but it was a very nice touch. The staff was very kind, professional and also fun. The entire place is fun really with many different sassy and funny signs on the walls. It's a casual environment that would also be great for dining in, which I'm sure we'll do in the near future. We can't wait to see how this place grows over time and how the menu changes. Thanks Wat Da Pho for a great first experience. We're excited to return soon. read more

I've had bubble tea at many locations, but this one (taro) was by far the most delicious. Caution: It was super sweet-but I was in the mood for that. While the food (I got the Just Pho and spring rolls, which I expected to be fried (they weren't) since many places usually have the summer rolls un-fried and spring rolls fried) was a bit lackluster. The Pho didn't come with jalapeños, which are one of my favorite ingredients to add to the soup, and there wasn't a lot of meat. The whole bowl had maybe 5 super skimpy pieces of meat- thin and just, meh. But, the bubble tea is a definite A+. There was a strange smell inside the restaurant- not sure if it was because the restaurant recently opened and had construction like fresh concrete or paint (I am from out of town). Either way, I opted for carry-out. The smell wasn't quite appetizing. But hey, I guess they get points for the super clever, witty restaurant name? If only cleverness translated into yumminess. read more

My friend and I were looking for a new pho place to try and came across this one. We were not disappointed! We ordered the soft pork & shrimp spring rolls and the thinly sliced beef pho. The food came out pretty quickly & the portions were a good size. Would come back! read more
