This place is well worth a visit if you are in the area. Not a chain. Spicy authentic food. It is busy so be prepared to wait a little. We always have the bowl of pho which is a tasty broth with your choice of meet, to which you add greens and herbs and chilli - if you wish -... More

I visited Bowl of Pho with an open mind and moderate expectations. I entered to find the hostess fully aloof sniffling and sneezing. I am very certain she, at no point, covered her mouth. She did not look at me, smile or greet me as I entered or after I entered. I asked her for a recommendation for a take... More

Always very busy at lunch.... thus my reason for not stopping in previously. Timing is everything I guess. Egg rolls and shrimp fried rice were tasty and filling. The large soups are in deed large. Worth a stop. Now open 7 days/week

Had enough of “The Usual” restaurants, try Bowl of Pho. It is an authentic Vietnamese noodle restaurant. The restaurant is always busy, but well run. Ordering is a bit of a challenge as there are so many combinations to choose from. Look around to get a better feel for the type of food served. The servers are focus, helpful and... More

This place is crazy-busy. But, the orders come out fairly quickly and the food is wonderful. Be adventurous and try something new off the menu, you won't regret this food adventure.

I love this place. It's located in the Publix shopping mall. Pho is so filling for the price. This place is always full of happy dinners. Their regular size bowl is plenty big.

Loved the pho soup and Egg Rolls. It is becoming more and more difficult to get good healthy food when traveling, and this fit the bill.... A little hard to find (not from here) but worth it!

Not the best Vietnamese food I have ever had, but it was pretty good. The service was quick and the servers were friendly. The dining area is bright and looks nice. Prices were about average for a casual sit down restaurant.

This is the best Vietnamese food I have ever eaten. The pho soup is delicious, the spring rolls so tasty and the 3 bean dessert is a MUST! It is usually very busy and the wait staff can be harried but the food is just SOOOOOO good!

Just walking in is a treat! The smells from the kitchen make my belly rumble and mouth water. The meals are as good as the aromas promise. I can't tell you my favorite, since I've not repeated a meal, but everything I've had has been exceptional. The service is excellent as well.
