Pho Sunrise

Blown away by some awesome dishes at this unassuming Vietnamese restaurant, which is a local favorite on Veterans Blvd. You wouldn't know unless someone told you, but the humbly named "Beef Flank Steak" rice plate or entree rivals any overpriced "Shaken Beef" entree on the West Coast, at a fraction of the cost. High quality sliced tender steak, aromatic & delicious brown sauce, stir-fried onions, fragrant rice - it's always a winner. The Grilled Beef on Pressed Vermicelli is also a new take on a classic as you typically see lukewarm & soft vermicelli. Hot-pressing the vermicelli creates texture by adding a little crunch and accentuates the flavor of the deliciously seasoned beef.Most dishes also come with a complimentary side of fresh veggies (cucumber and tomato) and a small bowl of yummy light soup/broth.

Pho Sunrise should be renamed Pho Surprise because yes they have all the regular Vietnamese items you would expect but when "Pho Season" comes and you are cold and hungry you find yourself here to get Surprised with a brisket or combination pho to satisfy your hunger and warm your soul. FYI the amazing Hot and Spicy Noodle Soup will give you hot tears of joy, but also jump start your mojo when you need a pick me up!

This spot is very clean and friendly staff, I used to come here when I was vegetarian and get their avocado bubble tea and vegetarian noodle bowl with tofu, The place is still the same, very delicious and prices are affordable. My older sister loves this place too and brings us on the weekends. They use real fruit in their bubble tea and food comes out hot and fast, I recommend their pho and combo plates , its very filling and fresh!!

The food here is always soooo good. The service is quick and you get your food quick. There are two TVs in the dining room and plenty of tables and seating.

The place is always clean, and the staff is always friendly. The is great, always fresh vegetables. I'm pleased every time I visit this business.

Pho Surprise is one of our regular lunch spots in this part of town. This is a simple Vietnamese Restaurant in a small strip mall, but they are always open for lunch, it's easy to get a table, place an order and minutes later enjoy our meal. On our last visit we started with an order of Spring Rolls with Tofu. We also shared a Rice Plate with Grilled Shrimp along with the Rice Plate with Stir Fried Beef and Assorted Veggies. And if it's cold and rainy we usually enjoy two bowls of their wonderful Pho.

This place is definitely lack customer service. We called in advance to make sure they are open and allow them time to set up table for 7 people. We walked in. This place is dead. It was very dark inside. Places like this worries me because what are you hiding with this poor lighting. I ordered an avocado smoothie with pearls. Of course they are out of avocado. After a few other tries and kept being disappointed. I asked for water. The waiter asked, is bottle water ok? I said, no, tap water is fine. Waiter said, we don't serve tap water. Now I'm curious....what's wrong with your tap water? Are you using the tap water to cook that you can't serve, what's going on?!?!? Waiter got really ugly and I told him that he realizes that we are about to drop some money and you are out of everything we asked. How do you stay open if you don't have anything customers asking on your menu and not even tap water. I'm done ranting but definitely take your money somewhere else. Felt very horrible with how we were being treated.

Fresh ingredients, and they don't taste like a ton of MSG.Moved to the neighborhood 4 years ago and gave the place a try a few months back. This place doesn't get enough credit. Super impressed.

We moved a little closer to Kenner and were craving vietnamese food. Then we saw Pho Sunrise and decided to try a bite.When we walked in, the atmosphere is very dull and had no music playing. They did have a basketball game on as background noise.We started off lunch woth cha gio dac biet. They ertr crispy and good, but very tiny. almost miniature eggrolls but were fried springrolls.my Fiancée ordered com thit nuong while I had bun bo hue. her dish was bland and dry with pieces not thoroughly cut. my Bun bo hue was a little spicy but needed much more flavor.definitely would not recommend if you're looking for an authentic vietnamese cuisine.

My boyfriend and I came here after reading all the raving reviews about their bun bo hue on yelp and to be honest, we were disappointed. Bun bo hue wasn't spicy at all, not enough flavor. It was just ok. Bun rieu was not bad but nothing special. To sum it all up, this place was just average. There are many better Vietnamese options around the area.
