Pho Hoang Yen

We stopped by here while we were heading north to the outlets. It was a really nice find. The place is clean. The owner is really nice. We had a nice conversation with him. For those who find him rude, I could only think it may be a language barrier. We were given bottled water instead of tap, and were told they're free. The banh xeo was really crispy, even after it's been sitting around while we were eating our other dishes. The bun bo hue was not spicy, but still nice. I have never had a goat noodle soup, so had to order that. I found out it's a dish that's from western/Mekong region of Vietnam. It is gamey, so may not be for everyone. I was glad to have tried it. My niece enjoyed her pho. Is this the best Vietnamese place? Probably not, but I would definitely come back to try more dishes, especially the dried noodles with soup on the side. I appreciate they did not just have the regular pho, vermicelli and rice.

It is a bit out of the way, but what a find! It's small, homey, and simple, but the broth is amazing. We had the bun bo hue, and it is as perfect as can be. The broth is rich and umami, and spicy, and just a little bit sour with tamarind, not vinegar. The noodles were perfectly cooked and there was an ample amount of meat.The other highlight was the goat noodle soup. When we ordered it, the server looked at us like "are you sure about that??" It's not for everyone. The taste of goat is much stronger than lamb, but so well balanced with the herbs and spices that it turned out to be a fabulous bowl. It came with a special dipping sauce that worked perfectly. Again, not for everyone, but for us, perfection.The fried egg rolls were flavorful, and full or minced pork and shrimp. But a little over-fried. All-in-all, a wonderful find and I would be willing to make the hour drive again!

Flavorless noodle dishes during my experience but friendly staff. I would like to revisit and try other dishes on the menu and update the review once that occur. Yummy spring rolls tho and good presentation with the noodle bowls.

Where do I even begin??!!Hands down the best pho I've ever had. My wife and I just moved to Martha Lake area and this was the first place I went and I'm glad I did! If I could, I would be here everyday! The service is amazing, food is always super fresh, great portions, the brisket was thick and tender. I could keep going!! Thank you and we'll be back tomorrow!!

This place was like a treasure hunt! If you ever get to go here please do taste Goat Noodle soup & I can bet on anything you won't stop having it ! It's such delicious dish I wanted to post photo before we started eating but oops was a lil late! Then you can also try Shrimp fried rice which is another lovely relish!! Small place but great food! Enjoy!!!

Food is always good here. My wife and I have started going here before work when pho sounds good. If your looking for good pho this is the place.

Delicious Pho with a generous amount of broth in the to go orders. The owner is stern but kind, and obviously enjoys cooking. The only complaint I have is no jalapeños were included. Will definitely be back.

In shortNeighborhood pho joint with a straightforward menu. They're delivering the goods for a fair price.In longThis is a bustling strip mall on an even-more-bustling 4-lane thoroughfare into Mill Creek. The parking lot is always packed. Especially on weekends, you can often assume that the pool hall/sports bar in the corner suite is drawing most of that traffic. But like most of the smaller businesses here, Pho Hoang has some reserved parking and you can hook it straight up. There's pho available at a couple spots within a few miles, but there are a ton of subdivisions and apartment complexes right around here. I was not at all surprised to see well over a dozen takeaway orders leave the dining room while I ate, and to hear a constant clatter from the kitchen, even though I was the only person eating in.You walk in to an open dining room with minimal decor. Dozen tables, acoustic drop ceiling, simple art. No muss, no fuss. Pay station in the back, tell 'em how many in your party and ya have a seat. No TVs I don't think, no music playing. A couple big potted plants. Seemed like the staff was mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, plus somebody in the kitchen and daughter at the pay station. Everyone is super nice, chatting warmly to each other in Vietnamese throughout my visit. I felt like I was visiting people in their home, in the nicest possible way. For my first time in, I got the usual steak and brisket. A small was filling for sure. You get an old teapot with a teabag steeping in it if you ask. They bring you a chilled plastic bottle of water when you sit. The broth was good stuff here. Rich and marrowy, nice and clear, good balanced spices. Everything in it was as it should be--tender meat, chewy noodles, nice flavor to the meatballs. The meatballs were a nice surprise, actually. The condiments were all in good shape--crunchy sprouts, very juicy fresh lime, super-aromatic basil. They don't bring you jalapenos or cilantro, and I didn't ask for any so I don't know if they stock it. But it was a perfectly satisfying bowl of soup as it was. I was out the door with a good tip for barely $20, happily armored against a cold damp day.

Delicious bún suòn bò. Meat seasoned and grilled to perfection. Could add a bit more veggies to the bowl. Fish sauce is a tad bit bland. All that aside this is excellent dishNice clean generic Viet restaurant dining spaceThe owner is hilariously friendly. Love their hospitality.

The pho is great. The grilled pork vermicelli is flavorful and tender. Was very happy to find this place.
