House of Pho

Came across this restaurant while looking for another pho restaurant in the area. I noticed that they are rated Excellent from the KC Hoth Dept, which is always a good sign for diners.Upon seated, we were greeted by the waitstaff who wore a traditional Vietnamese top who challenged my kiddo to say Happy Lunar New Year in Vietnamese and gave them a lucky chocolate coin since it's the New Year Day. Kinda fun for the kiddo.We ordered egg rolls and pho which arrived quickly. We like the soup. The beef was a little overcooked to my taste by the noodles were good. It was not greasy and had a good flavor, the egg roll was small, but crispy and tasty.

The dipping sauce is really good. We had egg rolls and veggies Pho at last time and that experiences was kind good.

TLDR/ Just don't. Everything about this place screams of disorder and carelessness. Price: Expensive, Portions: Pitiful, Flavor: Absent, Service: Horrendous. Verdict: Avoid it, and tell your friends to avoid it too, save humanity from this pho purgatory. I sat down and ended up having to get my own menu and when the waitress came, she was both curt and let me know that item after item was unavailable. Also, who doesn't keep soy sauce on the table at a pho/teriyaki restaurant? I had to ask for both soy and for chili oil, which they were "out" of. The two front desk clerks were talking about me in another language, jokes on them that I understood them and tipped accordingly. Every single thing you could imagine being wrong with this place was.My pho came out underwhelmingly under-seasoned. They must use a packaged broth, because it was nothing like pho should taste, definitively poor in every way. Even after adding salt, sriracha, hoisin, and all the herbs, it couldn't be saved from just being a little bit bland. The floor was speckled with detritus and the table's condiments looked like they had not been wiped down in ages. Any surface that should have been dusted, had not been. Fake plants, lights, even the top of the security camera were all caked in a solid film of dust (that's dirt and dead skin people).The bathrooms were disgusting. There were dead insects on the ground, dust covering every surface, walls spattered with who knows what. Seriously disgusting. If this is how the front of the house looks, what must the kitchen look like. If you want to be upset, underwhelmed, overcharged, underserved, and dissatisfied then this is a sure thing.

Great atmosphere. Great customer service. Ordered the chicken spring roll, shrimp spring roll and the chicken pho. I really wanted a boba tea but they were out of boba The large chicken pho ran me around $17.00

Great quality! I'm extremely picky and eat high quality and healthy food. When I rarely go out to eat pho it feels like most of the restaurants are extremely cheap and low quality. We were very pleasantly surprised with this spot and found it to be really nice quality and really tasty!

Service was very friendly and attentive. Egg rolls were small and didn't seem to have a lot of filling, more like a short lumpia. The pho broth was hot but needed more flavor. The beef and brisket were tender but the beef was fully cooked instead of raw. Possibly due to the temp of the broth? Basil and sprouts were fresh. There was very little sliced onion and green onion in the soup. Possibly another reason for the lack of body/flavor. Not a bad place but flavor is key to a great broth. This was lacking in my opinion. Restaurant was dated and older looking but clean. Tables had a sticky feel to them but this is common in a post covid era.

First time back since Covid and the food didn't disappoint. Gal that waited on us was very friendly and made sure we had fresh water the whole time we were there. We both ordered the pd and while they were out of the meatballs they gave us extra steak so it made up for that We also had the fresh shrimp rolls. They were delicious!

The best Pho we've found near us. The menu options fit the different likes of my family.

Authentic, delicious, and reasonably priced. I really think this place is underrated and I don't understand why. The food is very authentic with all the traditional Vietnamese flavour you expect from a family operated establishment. The grilled pork is juicy and flavourful, the Banh Mi' has a crunchy outside and a fluffy inside with all the great taste you expect from a quality sammy. I ordered the grilled chicken rice dish and loved every bite. The grilled pork spring roll was super fresh and is honestly one of the best I've had in a long time. Give this place a try when you're in the area, focus on the food and you'll be pleasantly surprised how good it is.Note: the bad reviews are from people who consistently bash and trash on Yelp. The best reviews are coming from Yelpers with Vietnamese last names. Who do you trust more when reading a review on Vietnamese food, Karen Smith or Tram Nguyen?

The thai tea in this restaurant is fantastic! I and my friend came here last Saturday and ordered 2 differents dish. The teriyaki is good and my friend is yakiso also good too.
