Phở 4 U

Reviews Pho 4 u Inside has a good amount of seating but I am more about the food when it comes to pho. If you read any of my other reviews you can see I have been a phologist for decades. That being said I know most Vietnamese dishes very well from growing up with man first and second generation friends. I asked, since the menu seemed short for the type of restaurant, if they had 2 of my favorite and often on the menu soup in Vietnamese first and then in English. She sent a guy out who seemed to speak better English. He also didn’t even act like he know what I was saying. I can hear the whole staff specking Vietnamese and I also can speak a fair amount from working in a few pho shops. So the ignoring me and trying to brush me off when I ask in your language something is kind of rude. Anywho, I ordered pho and the veggies that come with pho normally are cheap and not skimped on. See photo. It was like they gave me leftovers. The regular is small compared to most other pho places. The broth wasn’t bad but lacked depth in the flavor (no start anise, cinnamon, or ginger I can note) which normally tells me it is not pure bone brewed but likely from a package. It also had almost zero Nuoc Beo which is basically seasoned beef tallow which is created naturally in the making of the broth when done by traditional standards. It would be weird to have none unless made from powder. My rare steak was fully cooked when I got my bowl and the tripe is cut very thin losing its texture. In short, it filled the void before my Costco run but I could have made similar at my house with instant packets and saved 12 bucks. I won’t eat here again for lack of quality in both food and service.

Food is good. Service is fast. No waiting for long. They cook food fast and tasty. There appetizers with salad is really good. The dressing is really tasty. Everything taste really good.

Food is good overall and I've been coming here for a few years now. However, check what they charge. I just got charged about $3 more than I should've on my last visit. It's not a lot, but that shouldn't happen. $26 is way too much for egg rolls and a regular Pho noodle soup. Should've been just over $23 after tax.

I was shocked they actually had real iced coffee! Post COVID no has real iced coffee anymore. I'm going to start refusing the fake stuff it's horrible compared to Pho 4 U's iced coffee. The boba and pho were fantastic! Overall I had a great experience and I'll be back.

Update 12/28/2024 I haven't been here in awhile. Decided to check this place out since I had business in the area. I ordered a combination noodle bowl. When i received my bowl, i was shocked to find out my chicken and beef were likely leftovers from the day before. I didn't think this actually happened in real life but only on Gordon Ramsay shows. This was completely disgusting! Never coming back to this restaurant!! Im going to start off by saying the girl waiting on us was rude. Barely took care of us. Food was alright. Prices were average. Not exactly thrilled with my experience. Seems like quite a few other people had the same experience. Learn how to take care of your customers people. So sad, this is on the way home for me from work.
