The Spicy Hue Vermicelli is the best pho I've ever had. I've ordered it several times recently and every time the flavors are impeccable and ingredients are superb quality. It's bare minimum on service but it's super easy to order on your phone, the food always arrives fast & piping hot and the staff are friendly.A hidden gem if you're ordering out or don't need a vibey atmosphere with the meal.

I came by myself on a Saturday afternoon and figured I'd give this restaurant a chance. The store was mostly empty and I ordered through a kiosk. The kiosk ordering threw me off a bit, because the rest of the restaurant isn't self serve -- there are no fountains of water, no general area with utensils/napkins, and nowhere to bus dishes. Given that you can't self serve, the service did not meet my expectations. I wasn't given water until being seated for around 10 minutes, and upon my pho being served, I was only given a soup spoon without napkins or a fork/chopsticks. As for sides, I was given a sad collection of jalapeños and no bean sprouts or mints, which usually comes with pho. The tables had only oyster sauce and sriracha, and there were no sauce bowls. The noodles were also slightly thicker than what I typically get at a pho restaurant.The taste of the pho was good, however, and the pan fried bao were very juicy and full of flavor. I do think the pan fried bao were on the pricey side averaging around $2 per bao, so I most likely won't get it again.The owners aren't Vietnamese (as far as I observed) which may explain the fusion items on the menu as well as the lack of typical items in a Pho restaurant. I probably won't be back, but if you're in a pinch for some pho, this place will scratch the itch.

Wow, this place has misleading and has possibly fake reviews. It is some of the most flavorless and sad looking pho, when you enter (freezing cold restaurant where the only worker behind the counter is wearing a puffer jacket), there is a kiosk to your left that you can order from (so many red flags). You can also order from a QR code at your table, The site has some pho and other dishes that are Chinese or Pho like. We ordered a combo beef pho and my husband tried the chicken chow mien to see if one would be better. They both were mediocre and bland. The pho came out with some jalapeño slices and a piece of lime on the side. The soup was bland, the extra such as cilantro and Thai basil were already in the soup, it felt like a generic vending machine entree with no pizzazz. The chow mien was nasty, cold and really just tasteless. I like to try new places but this is misleading with their high ratings. We were offered some cold or hot water, there was no tea available, it was a pint glass of either hot or cold water. I am a little speechless at the generic quality of the food and restaurant. I would not recommend this place.

place is small and service is more of a self service and you can order on the kiosk or on your phone if you're seated. I got the Bun bo hue, which was decent. It's not as spicy as when I normally expect. The broth was also slightly different than what I'm used to though. But it seems that every place makes their broth slightly different for bun bo hue. Portion sizes are large. And plenty of meat. The only thing I found relatively strange was that there wasn't a side of cabbage. The bean sprouts and mint was already added into our soup beforehand too.We also tried the pan fried dumplings, Shiu mai, and XLB. All were standard. staff was friendly and services quick.

My coworker and I decided to try out What Da Pho, simply based on the reviews and the name. We arrived and noticed that there is a kiosk that takes your order, no real interaction with the staff which is pretty odd. I guess that's the way things are going these days. I ordered the Beef Stew Pho and my friend ordered the Beef Noodle Pho. We also ordered an order of soup dumplings. We both liked our soups, but the soup dumplings were not great, just kinda average and not too juicy. Overall we liked the Pho and will be back, but will try the other appetizer items instead. There is a parking lot that is nearby that is reasonable, if you can't find immediate parking outside.

Wtf? It was a cold chilly evening and I was craving a warm bowl of pho. Walked in and it was a bit confusing whether we should order or sit first, but found an open table and used the QR code to order. We got the pan fried Bao to split, and I ordered the HK Wonton Noodle Soup. The Bao were amazing, and I would definitely get them again. The pho was alright, but slightly lacking in flavor. It was also extremely hot and I burnt my tongue :( whoops.The service was mediocre, and my biggest complaint is that they leave the front door wide open, so the entire time I was just sitting there freezing cold. Also it was so quiet and the vibes felt a bit off because of how quiet it was - I would recommend playing some music or something!Overall solid pho option but not the greatest place ever.

Solid pho spot in the neighborhood and a super short walk from my apartment. The ordering process is automated. You choose what you want on the touch screen menu and pay right there. It's a smaller space but there's plenty of seating. I ordered the beef stew pho. This is one that I have never tried before but I thought "why not" since it was cold and I wanted something extra comforting. I really enjoyed the beef stew pho! It was very flavorful. Everything had great texture - the carrots, the beef, and the noodles. None of that pho got wasted. I also tried the shrimp fried rice. It was pretty good. I could go without the shrimp and just eat the rice. I'd love to try more of the menu. If you dine in, don't order bottled water. There is complimentary tap water!

I ordered from Wha Da Pho for the first time in Grubhub based on a couple of reviews I read about their Pho. Someone said "possibly the best pho I've ever had". While it's good, I don't know where that rave comes from. Very salty! It's decent but I'm certainly not raving. 31/2 stars. Delivery was on time

I'm not sure if I have picky tastebuds or I'm just used to SJ pho but this place seems over hyped. Pho tai was bland and not as flavorful as I thought it would be. Service was quick but thought it was quite odd that the person at the register was blasting their movie on their phone, making it kind of hard to chit chat. Maybe they lacked social awareness but thought it was kind of rude to do if there are patrons eating. Wished they used earphones if they were going to do that.
