Main Street Pho

A quaint little spot in Manayunk, to pop in and have some nice yummy Pho or any other delightful dishes they have on the menu. My grilled shrimp Pho was really yummy and it hit the spot aaahhhh!! lol the shrimp were grilled to perfection and the broth was on point. The summer rolls were pretty good, I know that they are a simple little recipe, however, they can be hit or miss. I also ordered the black tea which came out in a cute little personable tea kettle. There was a young man an older man and a woman that I could visibly see that were working here and service was good they were very attentive. I definitely recommend going to this restaurant and trying some of their amazing dishes and their hospitality.Enjoy!!

Main Street Manayunk is looking great these days with terrific streetlife from end to end. Main Street Pho is one of the multitude of options. Outdoor seating for good weather days and a pleasant Asian vibe dining room for anytime. As a first timer I went with the basics-Grilled Chicken Pho, while my companions had beef pho and Grilled Pork Banh Mi Sandwich which they shared and gave me a taste. While the grilled side plate of chicken was quite good, particularly with a dip in the hoisin/sriracha mix, the broth was weak. It needed more time simmering in the pot with a whole lot more spices to bring the flavor up to par. A little lemongrass seasoning would have gone a long way. The Banh Mi was okay with pleasant grilled bbq flavor, but again light on the other ingredients (daikon, carrot, cilantro) that give these classic sandwiches the combination of taste and texture that make them famous. I've been on a Vietnamese cuisine kick of late, eating in about a half dozen over the past month. Sad to say, Main Street Pho falls on the lower end of my exploration due to lack of richness in the broth and a need for more substance in the Banh Mi. There is a lot more on the menu, so it is probable that there are some winners there, but first impressions being important, this house did not quite reach the standards I was hoping for.Still, don't sleep on Manayunk. There is plenty there to keep you entertained. 3.5 Slurpy Stars

I was so engrossed in conversation with a new friend, I neglected to take a photo of my pho. So I'll tell you about it. The broth was weaker than my preference. But with a squirt of this, and two squirts of that, it improved significantly. I complain that many restaurants overload the bowl with noodles. To their credit, Main Street doesn't. And their grilled chicken was quite tasty. T and I shared a roast pork banh mi sandwich which was neither the best I've had, nor the worst. The roll was crisp, but fillings a little sparse.With all considered, I designate 3.43 stars to tonight's meal. Since I'm feeling magnanimous, I'll round up to four stars! When I return -- and I likely will -- I'll follow the lead of a fellow at the next table. His dish he said, tasted as good as it looked: lemon grass shrimp with vegetables and rice noodles.

The service is great food authentic, very flavory, and so fresh. The seasoning is not overpowering either. Love the chicken and beef Pho. Plus the summer rolls and peanut sauce (if you like sushi you will love the summer rolls)

One of the cheaper restaurant options in Manayunk. Free parking on Sun, but otherwise it's not too hard to find street parking all around. Pros:-got the 'special' pho - pretty standard, nothing really blew me a away-seating inside and outside-fast serviceCons:-pricey for some basic Pho-3% credit card surcharge. Can avoid by paying cash or via Venmo. Kind of ridiculous in this day in age-wish it came with more meatConclusion - if you really want Pho and you are in this area then I guess this is an ok option. Not a great value for what you get though. Otherwise @Ramen would be my suggestion a few blocks down.

Food is delicious! Next time I will definitely ask for more of the hot/hoisin combo. Cute little place, maybe 10 tables. I got to go and it was perfect. Still hot and flavorful with all the proper fixings. My food was ready when I arrived and they do have Venmo pay. They up charge for credit cards so cash or Venmo it! Drive slow to find it and once you have, you will always remember. I would return.

This place is nice and cozy with a few tables inside. I was with my friend, party of 2, we waited for like five minutes on a Sunday. We ordered pho and it was honestly so good. I cannot wait to go back there, cause the pho was just delicious. My friend loves pho and she said this place was soooo good. I will definitely be going back!

Quick and kind service with yummy heart warming food! Best winter meal! We will be returning soon!

This is honestly one of my top favourite establishments on Main Street hands down. The staff are friendly, food is amazing, ambiance is really relaxing and actually would be a good date night spot if you bring a bottle of wine. I can't wait to keep going back!

Loved this spot! We came across this small, unassuming joint while walking in manayunk, and even at 4pm the place was almost full. The food service was quick and the food was so so delicious and flavorful, even with all vegetarian food (which is rare with pho!). The jasmine tea that we ordered was also so amazing. I would highly recommend this place!
