Review Summary

Pho Ly Quoc Su draws mixed but largely positive feedback for its authentic Vietnamese Pho and lively, attractive setting. Reviewers repeatedly praise the broth as rich and flavorful and the portions as generous, with chicken pho, beef pho and vermicelli dishes earning praise for taste and authenticity. The interior is described as clean, bright, and cozy with a vibrant decor and a pleasant terrace, making it a popular spot for both locals and visitors. Service is noted as friendly and attentive in many visits, though several diners report occasions of slower service, water not being refilled, or missteps during meals. Some guests mention higher prices and occasional inconsistency compared with other pho places, while others feel the quality justifies the cost and location. A number of reviewers highlight halal options and careful preparation to accommodate dietary needs, and many appreciate the freshness of ingredients and the traditional flavors that recall Hanoi and other Vietnamese kitchens. A few reviews describe less favorable experiences, citing bland broth or clumpy noodles, but these are outweighed by praise for the overall experience and the variety of menu choices, including banh mi and other Vietnamese dishes.

I had low expectations coming in. Fewer options than a classic Vietnamese pho resto. Iced espresso was served blended instead of separate condensed milk & espresso. Small amount of fresh basil & sprouts with pho. However the broth was fairly fragrant & was served hot.

We ordered the special pho & the hu tieu kho with everything. I am very picky about Pho. This one has the same taste as the ones I ate in Hanoi. Real northern taste. The broth was flavourful & there was lots of meat. My partner ordered the hu tieu kho. It tastes good. This is a great find. We'll come back for the pho again. The owner told me we could order Quay (fried dough stick) - not on the menu to eat with pho next time. I wish I had known it sooner as it would add to the pho. Eating like people in Hanoi.

It's ok pho. Broth was OK. It didn't have that Kapow that hooks you. Noodles were the flat wide ones... Not my particular favorite. Rare beef pho was $18. There was no choice of sizes & I thought it was on the medium to small size where the price would've normally warranted, a gigantic bowl. All in all, not bad, but not a knockout. Staff were nice, food came quick, interior was quite nice.

The pho's broth is definitely different! Service is prompt & are generous with red cut chilli & siracha sauce. Indoor is instaworthy & outdoor is just right opposite the park!

Unfortunately the broth is very weak for the vegetable pho. Which is the main ingredient that's really important. Sorry guys.

Everything was great! From service to food to the decorations. We were so happy to have a noodles that isnt so so heavy in msg or sweet & salty. The Bun bo hue was spicy & so delicious!! Special pho had great broth. Both had so much meat in them🩷 & lots of basils, green onions, cilantro added a lot to the flavour👍🏼

This place is conveniently located & ambience is charming. We had veggies pho & chicken pho. The broth was good & went well with the well-cooked chicken. The attentive & friendly staff made the dining experience pleasant. Overall, a great spot for good Vietnamese food with excellent service.

Most bland pho I've ever had. The broth had no food flavor.

Honestly the best pho i've ever had & one of the best meals I've ever had. The broth was so delicious & the veggies were fresh & crunchy which I love. Me & my friend have tried the following: Vegetarian imperial rolls (please note it comes with 2, not 3 like said in the description): absolutely delicious fresh, comes with a delicious sauce Vegetarian Pho: my friend said it was delicious! She loved the fried tofu. Well done beef Pho: broth was crazy good, the beef was delicious & tender (but the meat was very fatty, which might be the norm for this dish but i personally don't like fatty meat) Grilled chicken Pho: same delicious broth, the chicken was amazing & the veggies were fresh. This dish was so amazing & I will be coming back many times for it! The only downside was the service. We were only about 4 people in the restaurant & yet the waiter took forever to get us the bill & never came to check up on us. It could've been better but the food it so worth it that it doesn't matter. The food came out quick aswell! All in all, I will be returning very often - this might be one of my favourite restaurants!!!

Nice well decorated atmosphere. Very friendly & responsive staff quick service & good food. Most Vietnamese food is similar from one place to another so usually the only thing you can look for is defects & there weren’t any here. The broth on the pho was great & the portions were huge. If you’re ordering pho you might want to consider splitting it between two people. We liked it so much. We brought our daughter & came a second night. The crème brûlée was good for dessert.

Great spot for pho & other Vietnamese dishes! The pho has a very clean & clear broth, & everything served tastes very fresh.

It’s a bit expensive for pho but located in downtown after all. I was searching for a Vietnamese restaurant that was near my office & I am glad I found this place :) the broth is fresh, not too salty but still rich. My feedback though is that i would prefer (this is my preference) for the meat to be more thinly sliced. iced coffee (cà phê s?a ?á) is also a must!
