Pho Nguyen

We have come here a few times now and have had great experiences. This place is never busy but is always delicious. Highly recommend for quality Pho. The service is quick and the food is hot with music playing while you enjoy your meal.

I was looking for some late-ish eats and my friend had been here before, so we decided to pop in.- Parking - Center lot.- Vibe - The restaurant seems a little dated, but it was clean and well kept. The restaurant is a wide open space with booth seating on both ends of the walls and table and chair seating in the middle. Washrooms were clean too.- TLC - The young man working was very nice, polite and super helpful.- Noms - I always have my go-tos at Vietnamese restaurants, but I was feeling more adventurous on this visit. I also wanted to take full advantage of my friend's knowledge of Vietnamese cuisine as she is Vietnamese, so I let her order.Springs rolls - a little on the small side, but well rolled and fresh. Spring rolls are my favorite. Hu tieu nam vang - this soup is like a clear pork broth and includes glass noodles, char siu, shrimp, lettuce, thinly sliced pork, quail eggs, topped with cilantro. I really liked it. The broth was clean, and everything was cooked nicely.Bun bo hue - spicy broth, fat round rice noodles, that grayish meat that is in banh mi, pork meat with bone, topped with cilantro and sliced onions.*Note - they bring out this AMAZING sauce that you are supposed to put in your soup and OMG, I just dumped the whole thing in it. It's a mix of chilis and lemongrass and some kind of salty shrimp! SO good. Don't miss on this.Shaking beef - this was my least favorite dish and my friend said it was too saucy. If you are analyzing the dish by itself (not considering it shaking beef), I thought the sauce was good. This was my first time trying shaking beef, so I have nothing to compare it to. I've seen numerous recipes of it on Instagram though and it did look saucier than the versions I have seen as well. The real disappointing part of the dish was how small the cuts of beef cubes were. I pictured bigger chunks. The beef was the size of a mint. All in all, really great soups. I have my eye on their special next, the oxtail pho!Pro tip: ask them to steam the bean sprouts so it doesn't affect the temp of your hot soup! Enjoy, Friends and never stop exploring!

We had an excellent meal and the service was great. I had the seafood rice noodle soup. With all the toppings. Yum! Squid was tough but it was tops otherwise. My partner had the chicken fried rice and it was also enjoyed. We shared the Vietnamese egg rolls that were delicious as well. Ambiance was meh but that doesn't bother me and had no impact on my meal.

I'm be of the best view places in vb in my opinion. Well prices, great service and has my favorite viet dish - lemongrass beef with rice. Would recommend this place if you looking for some good viet good.

Can anyone truly say anything bad about this place? It's located in a strip mall, and a little hidden from the main road. It's a little shady on the outside, but when you enter it's this beautifully decorated restaurant. I mostly go for the pho. They have different size bowls, and the biggest being a king which can be pretty large for some people (not me). You have the option to chose from the menu pho items, or create your own. Which is nice for those who are specific about their protein choices. The broth is so rich, and it's a delicacy on its own. I definitely recommend this place to all my friends. My husband and I agree if we could have a party here we would. There's plenty if seating for groups, so bring your family!

The inside of this restaurant is super cute. The lights are aesthetic, and the wood on the ceiling makes it feel like a roof. The shrimp spring rolls and peanut sauce were delicious. Always gotta have the spring rolls. They felt fresh when biting into them. The pho comes in a King, Queen, or Kids size which is nice. I got Queen because I knew I couldn't finish a King. Take your crown, Queen! My husband got some bbq with vermicelli noodles. Super yummy, the bbq was seasoned well. It was also a good texture, neither under or over cooked. Service was also wonderful. Everyone was kind, and our server checked on us often. Side note, the playlist they had on the speakers was fire. Thanks for the good meal!

Excellent Vietnamese place. The food came out quick and was very tasty. The chicken vermicelli was only $15 and decently priced. Vietnamese spots in Virginia Beach is lacking so I'm glad this restaurant is located reasonably. Overall I'd go here again!

Always a fantastic experience I love this place so much. Words really can't describe how good the food is. You just gotta go see for yourself!

Pretty fast and reliableI typically have pho when visiting Vietnamese restaurants, but I wanted to do something a bit different for some reason *I guess shame on me for not trying pho when the name of the restaurant includes the word, pho*. For my lunch, I went with the fried rice combo dish, which came with fried rice (of course), beef, chicken, and shrimp. I would say that the dish had plenty of chicken and beef, but the shrimp was a bit lacking. The next time I have a craving for Vietnamese food and need some sustenance before dealing with the insanity that is Walmart, I'll be sure to visit Pho Nguyen.

Food was yummy! Definitely one of the best pho places I've had. They were quick with my order.
