Cold and rainy night… on a whim we decided to try the Pho Hoa because the Pho might warm the bottom of our soul….
Easy parking, nice ambience (even though they left the vibe from the previous restaurant). Settle in and order drinks.. whoops. No matcha. Ordered diet coke… u know when the mix is wrong and the taste is not quite right? That was the diet coke
The Pork banh Mei was light on meat. Tasted good, good bread, light on the meat.
The summer roll was doughy. Not sure why, but you know when a roll has been TIGHTLY rolled, its springy and firm? This was not that.
The beef brisket was SPICY.. so if u like that way. Awesome.. however the description doesn’t tell you that a lot of the meat is going to be on the bone… so be prepared… cos its tough to strip meat off a bone using chopsticks… just saying… not a criticism, because that might be the chef’s recipe. Just saying a heads up would be great.
Finally, on the service side, we didnt get water till asked. My banh mi came out 10 mins before the pho. And it seemed like the servers will still trying to figure it out.
The place has potential. And I want them to make it.. might let a few months go by before I try again tho… many better pho places for the money.

Great neighborhood spot in East Cobb / Marietta. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared, with generous portions for the price. Service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. A solid, reliable place that’s easy to come back to. Highly recommended.

Thanks so much for your amazing service.

Stopped by for lunch and Pho Hoa hit the spot! Another home run for the East Cobb area. The pork and prawn vermicelli was really flavorful and my husband got the steak pho; both were excellent. I look forward to going back again and getting more dishes, especially the banh mi. I was not expecting it to be a cute sit down restaurant but it was very clean, comfortable and modern. Glad to have this place nearby!

Came here for my birthday tonight and I loved it. Really good Pho. It comes highly recommended in my book. I also got a mojito tea that was also really good.

As far as pho places go, I like it. Its a good price and you get decent pho. The people working there are nice, but they don’t seem to remember any time I order a large, so be sure to remind ’em if they forget.
Portion sizes are smaller but cheaper and customizable. I would recommend trying the squid, most places don’t have that. They’ve also got a variety of new takes on pho, but that’s just not my thing. Milk tea is okay. Can’t say much about anything else because I like the pho too much.
The Beef quality is alright, but other places tend to be better about consistantly being tasty. Occasionally it’ll have a bit of a strange after taste, especially with the Tendon/Tripe. Don’t recommend tripe here.

I visited Pho Hoa & Jazen Tea on their grand opening weekend during their 50% off pho and tea promotion and was blown away by the great food, welcoming atmosphere, and decent service. I went with my girlfriend around 2pm for lunch. We ordered the Spicy Sate pho, Pork banh mi, Lychee Mojito tea, and Buzzin’ Berry milk tea. After ordering our pho came out very quickly at around 5 and a half minutes, only about 2 minutes later did our banh mi come out. We were very impressed with the speed of the food prep, but did have to ask about the side plate of bean sprouts and jalapenos for our pho. Unfortunately our drinks were delayed, taking almost 20 minutes for us to get our drinks. This could largely be due to the busyness of the restaraunt from their promotion. Once we received everything we had nothing but great things to say about the delicious food. The spicy sate was indeed spicy and was filled with plenty of meat and noodles for two people to share. The pork banh mi was easily my favorite item I tried today. It had perfectly cooked pork, garlic mayo, and a mixture of pickled vegetables and fresh jalapenos for an excellent crunch. Our two drinks were very good, but can definitley be hit or miss depending on your sweetness preference. My lychee mojito had a great refreshing sweet mint flavor for the summer heat, while my girlfriends buzzin’ berry was a little too sweet for my enjoyment. It is definitely worth asking the servers for some guidance, especially if you’re new to the cuisine. I greatly appreciated the atmosphere within the restaruant. The interior is sleek and modern, and the music is kept nice and quiet so diners aren’t forced to yell over other guests or the music. My only complaints for Pho Hoa & Jazen Tea would be the delay for our drinks, but like I mentioned that is probably a result of their grand opening promotion. Another small gripe I had was their tipping system. The servers carry POS machines with them for final ther payment, and watch as you select tip options. I look forward to the day they add a banh mi & milk tea combo, it would defintely be a regular lunch stop for me if they did.
