Pho Asia Noodle House

The prices have unfortunately skyrocketed as other competition has made their way into the market here in south Everett. I bring this down to two stars because it used to be a go-to of mine because of the pricing. But now there are other places in the area with equal to better quality for the same price. I tried their new rib pho recently and I was sadly disappointed as it was chewy and difficult to eat. Not sure if it was just the piece I received, but nonetheless I guess I had higher expectations since it was $17 before tax and I was a fan of their pho in the past. The broth isn't quite hitting the same as it used to, even in the pho dac biet (house special pho).

My family and I have been coming here for years and I just want to say first and foremost that this restaurant has the best Pho and Vietnamese dishes probably in all of Washington. We choose this place over any other Pho restaurant, even though there are many too choose from in the area and we have never lived closed to their location.That being said, I just want to mention in the most constructive way possible that the atmosphere of Pho Asia Noodle House has gone down drastically in the past few years, this prices have also increased so much that it's almost $100 for 3 people to eat (3 bowls of pho, 2 small sides and 3 drinks). The employees and owners are very nice people and have never been rude or unpleasant to us in any way...but it's the atmosphere they provide around their guests that has gone downhill. For example, they seem to be doing the loudest and most disruptive tasks during the day around everyone in the dining room who have paid money to dine in the restaurant. (Cleaning the fish tank, cleaning the air vents, using an electric vacuum or extremely noisy hand vacuum right next to the table when your eating your food, organizing utensils on the far back table EXTREMELY loud, I'm talking about slamming them down in the bin to organize them as fast as possible) also they keep the dirty bus bin close to tables while you're eating which seems unsanitary. This isn't a regular occurrence or even something that happens each time we visit, but over the course of 10+ years of eating at this restaurant, it may benefit the staff to take note of these things if they want customers to return to enjoy their food and space.

My friend brought our group of four here for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon. To my surprise, it was pretty busy around 2:30P, but we were immediately seated at a table in the back by the kitchen. The menus are secured under the glass tabletop. Most of the pho options are $11.50 for a small and $12.50 for the large, but their House Special is $12.50 and $13.50 respectively. Interestingly, the menus on the table listed the meats that each pho included, but NOT for the House Special. I didn't think anything of it at the time, and each of us ordered it, but now that I read the online menu, something is off.The online menu states the HOUSE SPECIAL contains "Rare eye-round steak, brisket, flank, marble brisket, soft tendon, tripe and meatballs". I am 100% sure there were no meatballs in my bowl nor my friends' bowls. Also, all the beef slices I had were well-done, so I am not confident they gave me the rare eye-round steak either. I originally thought the amount of beef in the dish was fine, but that was before learning there should have been four different varieties. In terms of service, I thought it was efficient and quick. Our waters and my friend's Thai Tea arrived within a minute of putting in our beverage orders and the kitchen whipped up our pho faster than expected. The waiter brought them out piping hot with a separate plate of bean sprouts, Thai basil, jalapeño and lime to split between us. Hoisin, Sriracha and a jar of chili oil were already all set for us when we sat down. The only thing is once we got our food, we weren't checked on again until a different staff member brought our bill.Starting with a sip of broth, I found it so light, flavorful and not too salty. The noodles were cooked perfectly and still had a firmness to them, rather than being mushy. The steak slices were pretty tender and the tripe was sliced into thin ribbons. I dipped the meats in the chili oil and hoisin to liven them up a bit. I was not a fan of the tendon due to the texture, but that is just my personal preference. I would have liked a greater proportion of beef, with less tendon and tripe, but everyone will have their own opinion there. Onion, green onion and cilantro added bites of freshness, and I topped my bowl with some bean sprouts and Thai basil. Overall, it was a delicious and satisfying bowl of pho. I am torn about my rating. We enjoyed our lunch, but were totally missing the meatballs and I'm questioning whether our pho really included four types of beef. If I hadn't looked online, I never would have known, but I know we were at least partially jipped. 3.25 stars.

Super fast service, standard pho quality you'd expect and still priced very well given inflation. Came at opening and it was already almost half packed. Was able to be in and out in less than one hour. Glad to have the same quality and value as always

Love this place!! Always come here for food. Im adding photos of their menu. Service here are promptly and courteous. :)

We were trying to find a good pho restaurant in Everett. We were greeted and seated within 5 seconds of walking in. We ordered two large pho which was $11 (which is really really hard to find these days. Also we ordered shrimp paste on sugar cane. Pho: great flavor and generous portions. I couldn't even finish the noodles. Shrimp on sugar cane: yum!! This isn't super easy to find and only $6 for 2. I'll take it!! Would I go back? Yes, of course!! Happy to try my other go to, vermicelli bowl with pork and eggrolls. Stay tuned!

Been coming here for years. Great staff, food and prices. My kids also love watching the coy fish swim in the big tank when you walk in and I love the staff! They are always so friendly and welcoming.

We've been coming here for almost 20 years. The service is first rate. The restaurant should be a boiler plate on how a restaurant should be run. The pho, vermicelli, spring rolls, etc is still as delicious and authentic for as long as we've been customers. It's nice to know that some things are still awesome at this time of so much change.Highly recommended!!

Great, authentic pho! Service is always fast, friendly and attentive. Love this neighborhood spot!

I've eaten here often and have ordered delivery a couple of times as well. Always consistent, great service and excellent pho. And bonus!!! They have nước béo hành trần, aka fatty broth, next level! I love how the dining area is laid out and menus are at each seating spot
