I’ve only gotten pho 97 through take out, but when I say every single time I have ordered it is always exactly what I wanted and more than expected. Just from TAKE OUT/PICK UP alone !! Everything is always meticulously placed and fresh! Like they pick the basil and cilantro out of a garden to order. I really appreciate them and the atmosphere when I do come is beautiful. Thank you, Bryson and team for always taking care of me ❤️ your business is phenomenal!!

Their quality is really by far the best pho in town! No matter the soup, bbq meat, Bahm mi, appetizer, are all good!!!!

A vibe. My food was fresh and the presentation was an A+. My server was very attentive and patient. The decor and setting is very modern, laid back, but well lit and a place for nice pics. The place was clean and neat. The bathroom was clean.

The food is fresh and the proportions are generous! Get the “pho 97” bowl with the beef rib!!

The venue is fairly large, but there’s cute, more intimate space for a date night and picture opportunities.
The seafood pho was yummy, but the fish balls were not made with fish. It was like a gummy ball.
My companion enjoyed the stir-fry.
The spring rolls were decent. It comes with a peanut dipping sauce. We didn’t care for them.
The cocktail was pretty good.
If you want to try something new, it’s worth a try.

Service was slow / my dinner came out more than 5 minutes after my husbands. Setting was peaceful and relaxing Including the background music! The staff was very pleasant! I am a VERY picky eater but gave it a try due to my husband!! I feel sure we will be back. The pork chop had a teriyaki kind of flavor. The salad dressing was amazing. They don’t serve coffee and the tea cups are tiny but you get a big pot!!!

UPDATE: As promised, I came with my family to eat at the restaurant. A few things:
1. The space is very large and comfortably lit. Some people in other reviews complained the ‘cavernous space’ prevents the ‘aesthetic vision’ from coming together and this is the biggest load of pretentious hogwash I’ve seen yet. The space is great. In fact my only complaint is other customers being loud and obnoxious, through no fault of the restaurant, and the space makes it bearable.
2. Fishballs are made of fish paste. I felt everyone should know this. My sister ordered the seafood udon soup and the fishballs are premium. A lot of other reviews don’t seem to have any experience with authentic Asian food much less Vietnamese food and that lack of experience or appreciation really unfairly discolors this restaurant. For example, if you’re complaining your food is “bland” make yourself aware that the cultural expectation is for you to season your food to taste. This is commonly the case for all Southeast Asian cuisine and why all those condiments are on your table or in your bag.
3. The service is stellar. We were visited regularly by the waiters but not excessively. They were polite and respectful, overall very patient. Can’t imagine why their service gets such low ratings except, again, maybe some cultural disparity in expectations of what waitstaff is there for. Your food comes as it’s prepared and it’s prepared as you order it. Not everything is going to come out simultaneously because not everything takes the same amount of time to prepare. Your food will be piping hot and fresh and then your server shouldn’t be interrupting you every five minutes and probably won’t until a certain amount of time has elapsed or your plates are empty and put aside. These are good things, not bad ones.
Essentially, if you LIKE Vietnamese food or want to experience GREAT Vietnamese food and not hyper-Americanized food, this place is great.
The food is amazing, fresh, delicious, and authentic. Almost every condiment you could want is available and anything else you could ask for (We’re Thai and we like to add sugar, garlic oil, and fish sauce to our foods), you can *ask for*. The quantities are extremely generous.
This will EASILY be our go-to as long as the quality remains as it is.
We ordered 2 appetizers, 2 Pink Lychee drinks, and 3 different soups. All spectacular. The seafood especially the crab was super generous and the oxtail in the house special was sinfully tender.
Past Review:
I got this as delivery but I plan to go eat at the restaurant sometime this weekend and will update accordingly.
I am not super picky but I’ve eaten a *lot* of Vietnamese home cooking and at restaurants in and around BR. Even given that my food arrived piping hot (but I only got a chance to eat it when it was cold because I was lazy and busy feeding my child) let me just say this was the *best* pho and fresh spring rolls I have probably ever eaten in any restaurant.
The portions were fantastic. Everything was fresh. Sides were mindfully included and consistent, including condiments. I ended up so stuffed on pho that I saved the spring rolls for upwards of 8 hours and NOT ONLY had they not fallen apart, but they weren’t hard. They were just delicious, on their own, untouched.
I hope the quality remains consistent and the restaurant experience is equally good, but even my delivery experience was stellar.
Also it wasn’t super cheap but the pricing was about par or less than other Vietnamese cuisine for the amount and the delivery.
