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.
Today is my first time trying Vietnamese food, & it did not disappoint! The chicken pho is a delicious way to warm up on a cold day. The broth was very rich & the chicken has a nice grilled flavour. I ordered takeout & my order was ready in about 20 minutes.

While in town & staying in the neighborhood, I stumbled upon this place. So glad that I did! As soon as I walked in, the vibes were there! I was immediately acknowledged & sat for lunch. The staff were so attentive & nice!
I ordered the Vietnamese grilled chicken pho & a Pinot Grigio. THE FOOD…DELICIOUS! It was healthy & exactly what I was craving. & for the price point, you can't beat it.
The decor of the spot is so cute & trendy as well. I will definitely be back! 😁
We arrived with high expectations given other reviews but left disappointed. There was almost nothing on the menu that did not contain meat. The server, who tried to be accommodating, said the kitchen would prepare a vegetarian meal but it ended up being based on chicken broth. It was tasteless, watery pho so it didn't really matter. I'm very surprised that this place has the rating it does -- what a disappointment.
Ordered the vegan pho along with chicken fried rice & spring rolls. While the spring rolls & fried rice tasted good, the vegan pho could have been more flavoured. It was simple with not much seasoning. It was a winter evening so anything hot tasted great but there could have been more spicy / tangy flavours added. Maybe do a simple pho & one spicier version. Great ambience though & very close to grand central so we legit walked in -15 degrees. Love that cherry blossom tree!

Definitely not authentic Pho & overpriced for the quality. I ordered a grilled chicken Pho soup & was greatly disappointed. The noodles were really overcooked. By the end of my meal they were too soggy to eat. The grilled chicken was fine & the broth lacked flavour. I won't be returning :(
I went to the place last week with my colleagues & had an excellent service from Mia. The hu chiu was delicious but we didn't like the chicken pho. I would certainly comeback to try other foods!
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.

The food was average at best, large portions but the quality was average. The Pho was huge but lacked flavor & the chicken cuts weren't the best, chewy. The tofu wasn't great either & again lacked flavor. The spring rolls were decent & had some flavor. The service was great & the ambience was fantastic.
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!!!
Had the rice with grilled chicken + shrimp & pork rolls. Absolutely fantastic, great portions & the taste was superb. Service was friendly & kind. Place was very well kept. 💯 Recommend.
This place is amazing!! I would come eat here everyday if I could. The chicken pho was perfect for a chilly day especially hungover. We had the best customer service & food came out so fast. This was the best customer service I’ve ever received. I highly recommended going here.
