Pho Bac No1 earns praise for simple, honest Vietnamese cooking with standout pho, beef vermicelli and spring rolls, and the broth is repeatedly described as perfect. The place is noted for cozy, unpretentious vibes and a straightforward, no frills decor that suits an easy dine in or takeout experience, while patrons also compliment the efficient, friendly service from a family team. Value comes up often, with generous portions and prices considered fair, and many reviews call the food fresh and authentic. A few kitchen or service hiccups appear in some visits, including occasional slow service, mixed attention, or payment quirks like cash or debit only, and a handful mention packaging for takeout. Overall, the consensus is that Pho Bac No1 remains a reliable go to for reliable Vietnamese fare and comforting bowls that keep customers returning and recommending.
La nourriture est excellente & les deux jeunes offrent un très bon service à la clientèle. Par contre, la propriétaire laisse vraiment à désirer… Deux plats pour 49 $, & en plus ils chargent pour les contenants à emporter (je n'ai jamais vu ça !). En prime, aucune fourchette ni serviette dans le sac. J'aime encourager les petits commerces locaux plutôt que les chaînes, mais avec le service que j'ai reçu aujourd'hui, je n'y retournerai pas.
Je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce restaurant a une note si basse, & autant de mauvais avis.ce soir, j'ai commandé 1 combo inclus soupe maison, rouleau imperial. Poulet Nouilles croustillantes . La Service est bonne. C'est pas comme les reviews ont dites (service très lent..), la bouffe est excellente aussi. J'ai recommandé !!

I don't understand why this place is underrated. It has a unique atmosphere, like a hidden spot with an asian old school vibe. The food was good, & the service was very friendly!
Tout est bon & mention spéciale pour leur machine qui spécifie que 13% équivaut au 15% avant taxes comme le veut l'étiquette, contrairement à tous les restaurants malhonnêtes sur le pourcentage du pourboire, ça reflète bien la qualité générale de ce restaurant.

came here for dinner after a long day outside in the sun & was expecting a pretty hefty dinner. paid $20+ each, waited 20 minutes for our food & got a tiny little bowl of meat with a large plate of just raw lettuce & vegetables. when telling the staff they could not care less about our opinion. will not be coming back.
My friend & I went to grab dinner last night, & food was very average, rather below average. We got grilled chicken on rice, & it was super chewy & dry - clearly felt like reheated food. Unfortunately, would not recommend to anyone!
I haven't ate a alot Pho soups in different restaurants, because since I tried the soup here, it had became my go to always when I'm craving a hot comforting meal mostly during the cold days of winter. Totally recommend it
I don't understand the negative reviews. I go there for lunch at least twice a month for beef pho. The lady who serves me is always super sweet. The service is always super fast & the food never disappoints!
