Pho Hoang Express: Reviews & Ratings

Good pho broth. One negative thing about this restaurant is that I specifically ask the waiter NOT to put cilantro in my pho (because cilantro tastes like soap in my mouth), true enough I find s**t load of cilantro in my bowl every single time. As if Vietnamese waiters and/or cooks don't listen to their customers! I feel like the next time, I should go in the kitchen and stand behind the cook to reminder them

Used to go to Pho Ca Dao but due to quality of food & bad management service so switched to Pho Hoang. Have been going here since. Good taste equivalent but price & services, much better.

Delicious pho soup with all the fixings. Recommend!!! To the owners: PLEASE print new menus and have them laminated! Old tattered menus come across as very unprofessional to your customers.

Had a nice lunch experience here on a weekday. Parking is storefront in a shared lot. Service was attentive, friendly, and prompt from the moment I walked in to the moment I paid. Noticed that the staff recognize when regulars come in and they chat a bit. I ordered the beef/egg roll vermicelli, which was good. I was even asked if I wanted more fish sauce--YES always, thank you. Wouldn't mind coming back to try pho or other items or to pick up a to-go order.
