Pho Bac No1 is described as delivering authentic Vietnamese dishes with solid pho, crispy noodles, and generous portions at fair prices, with many reviewers noting a simple, unpretentious kitchen and cozy vibes. The service is often praised as friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is welcoming, though a few comments mention slower service or occasional inconsistencies; some guests also note cash only payments or mixed experiences between takeout and dining in. Overall, the reviews converge on dependable quality, value, and an inviting place to return to, with emphasis on the traditional broth and comforting bowls.
My friend & I love the wonton soup here & the Vietnamese iced coffee! The price is fair & the environment is quiet. Best part, the extra large wonton soup is big enough to split between both of us. We each got 10 wonton & some noodles for a total of $19.10 before tax. The ice coffee was $6.60 & super creamy! I would definitely recommend trying this place out.
Comme un autre commentaire plus bas, je ne comprends pas la note basse de ce resto. Mon copain & moi y allons en semaine de soir & la nourriture est délicieuse. La madame au service est super amable & prévenante. La déco fait un peu kitsch mais pour un Pho bien savoureux & revigorant, je vybe au pop asiatique a côté des poissons dans l'aquarium anytime. 10/10
I've been eating at this restaurant for the past 25 years. The food & service quality have not at all diminished over time. The prices have remained altogether reasonable. It's a family owned business with three sisters who give their all to keep it going during all those years & hopefully many more to come.

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!
