About

Pho Bac focuses on the preparation of authentic Vietnamese soups and traditional rice noodle bowls. The menu highlights slow-simmered beef and chicken bone broths infused with star anise, cinnamon, and ginger. Patrons customize their bowls with fresh bean sprouts, Thai basil, sliced jalapenos, and lime wedges provided at every table. Beyond the signature noodle soups, the offerings include crispy spring rolls and grilled meat vermicelli plates served with pungent fish sauce. The dining environment maintains a functional, high-turnover layout designed for efficient service of hot meals. Stainless steel tables and minimalist seating emphasize the practicality of the culinary experience. This establishment serves as a dedicated destination for individuals seeking classic, broth-based comfort food prepared according to established regional standards without unnecessary garnish or complex culinary embellishments.

Phenomenal place to satisfy pho cravings! I ordered a medium sized pho with everything & the portion size exceeded my expectations; I couldn't finish it all! The service is extremely quick but virtually nonexistent so it's great if you don't want to be bothered while having a quick bowl of pho, but not ideal for a special occasion. I'd definitely come back for a bowl once in a while.

We ordered the number 5 & 6 in XL size. Good portion. Broth was not rich nor seasoned well - needs saltier & rather bland. Good noodles. Lots of meats. Somewhat dirty though. Quick service

On a l habitude d'avoir notre spot favori de pho & bun mais on a malheureusement voulu essayer autre chose ? Deception totale les rouleaux etaient froids & graisseux bruns, le poulet grille vieux & caoutchou on sait pas si c est du poulet, qq morceaux de salade bref c était catastrophique pour ceux qui connaissent l autre vrai bol de vermicelles. Je ne recommande pas du tout
