My waitress was very nice.. I loved the soup I ordered it was very spicy. I ordered a drink and they did not have the ingredients needed to make to make it. The waitress was very apologetic and asked me if I wanted something else.

We’ve been dining at Pho 88 for over 20 years, ever since we moved from North Carolina to the Nashua area, and it’s still one of our favorite spots. This restaurant has been a reliable go-to for us—whether we’re entertaining friends visiting from out of town or simply don’t feel like cooking and want to grab a comforting bowl of noodles.
Our favorites are #14 and #16 on the menu. The noodles are always cooked just right—not too soft, not too firm—and the broth has a balanced, rich flavor without being heavy. The Thai basil and bean sprouts are always served fresh, which makes all the difference in the experience.
Pho 88 isn’t a fancy restaurant, but that’s part of its charm. It’s a welcoming, consistent place you’ll find yourself wanting to come back to again and again.

So I was verbally told by the server that they will not serve me anymore because I don’t tip. Last time I checked, tipping is earned and not an entitlement, I come and pay for my meal like any other person that comes into this place like anyone else , if you are doing the bare minimum then don’t expect a tip.
Once again, the server verbally told me that the servers will not serve me cause I do not tip. Not for being rowdy or rude but simply because I do not tip for someone who is literally just doing the bare minimum. I love the food here and been coming here for years now but I am sad to know that I will not be returning anymore. Such a disappointment.
I have just spoken to the manager Lock of the restaurant to ask if it is a standard in their restaurants to deny service to a paying customer service because of they do not tip the server? He did not respond to my questions and dropped the line on me. This is extremely disrespectful!
So long story short, this unacceptable, I am extremely disappointed.

For a quick weeknight dinner, I stopped by Pho 88. Since it was 4:30pm, the establishment only had a few patrons. Parking was ample and I received a table immediately. I ordered the #14 Xe Lua Pho / extra large beef noodle soup ($17.95).
Within 5 minutes, I received my order and the customer plate of bean sprouts, basil, and lime. The portion size lived up to its name, with both increased amounts of rice noodle and beef (rare steak slices, well-done brisket, flank, tendon, and tripe).
Disappointingly, the soup did not arrive super hot. As a standalone bowl of noodle soup this wouldn’t be an issue, but the bean sprouts sap away additional heat. Also, the broth seemed lacking in aromatics and tasted only like simple beef stock.

I didn’t get the Pho but I got Pork with rice and it was delicious. The pork was cooked perfectly and flavor was really good. I will visit again for Pho.

Moving reviews over from Yelp. I haven’t been back to the area since this was written in 2016:
My first experience with Pho (no, I can’t really explain why it’s taken so long) and I really enjoyed it. I went with a group from the class that I was in town attending and we filled their largest table.
A flurry of appetizers whirled by and I can highly recommend the soft shell crab as long as you are alright with spicy food. The crabs they served us were fresh, tender and sweet. Lightly battered and fried crispy on the outside, they were topped with a medley of chopped chilis that heated things up quite nicely. I would recommend steering clear of the shrimp cocktail as it was nothing too special though.
For my entree I went with our waitress’ suggestion and had the Pho that came with rare beef – I also took her recommendation and added the fresh vegetables. It arrived in a large steaming bowl that was chock-full of different things. The beef was buried under everything and had apparently cooked itself in the broth while I piddled around with all of the vegetables and noodles layered on top. When I finally found it I discovered that it was absolutely tender and richly flavored from cooking in the beef broth covered with vegetables. I really enjoyed the broth – a realization that caught me by surprise. My thoughts on broth are that it is a flavoring or base and not really suitable for consumption as a soup. That was proven wrong at Pho 88. Their broth seemed to have a silkiness that bordered on creamy but without any dairy in sight. The depth of flavor really caught me by surprise and pulled the dish together for me.

The food was very mediocre for the price. I ordered the #88, supposedly their best tofu dish outside of pho. It was labeled spicy, but it had absolutely no heat. The peanut flavor was too strong for my taste – almost overpowering. I probably wouldn’t recommend it for vegetarians – overpriced and not even enjoyable.
We waited nearly 10 minutes for someone to bring the check, then another 10 for them to take the card, but no one came. I had to go up to the front both times.

We waited 15 minutes the waitress to come our table to order. I had raised my ✋️ to let them know we need to order. They were chatting on the back with other waitresses. After, our food arrived the beef soup were not that hot. Usually all noodles soup coming from the kitchen outside of the table with that fully smoke .

The food was ok. I ordered the Special soup but it was too spicy for me… I also ordered the chicken fried rice and it was ok.
