Review Summary

Pho Rachel is widely recognized for its comforting homemade dishes, particularly its flavorful broth and high quality noodle soups. While most visitors appreciate the friendly service, the cozy atmosphere, and the fresh, authentic ingredients, opinions are occasionally mixed regarding the consistency of the meat quality in the chicken dishes. Despite these rare concerns, the restaurant is frequently praised for its affordability, tasty vegetarian options, and overall value, making it a well regarded local spot for a satisfying meal.

I went in at around 2:30pm on a Monday for lunch. I was the only one in the restaurant. The server was cordial & attentive. I ordered the beef pho noodle soup, medium sized & it was ready within 5 minutes. The broth was absolutely delicious. Best broth I've had in a while. The serving of meat was pretty good too. It was served with a plentiful amount of bean sprouts, coriandre & lime on the side. I'd definitely recommend for a quick meal.

It's a cute little place! The price is very fair, we paid 13$ for the medium bowl, & 14$ for the large beef pho. Service was also very quick. Taste wise, it's okay, the broth is a little too salty & the meat was a bit chewy. You can also see in the picture that the green veggies are looking a little sad. The noodles were really nice though, & the portions are good for the price!

My favourite Pho in the city. Always hot, fresh & so flavourful with generous portions. It's also very clean inside & the service is always friendly. I would highly recommend the rare beef soup :)

Regarding the beef pho (soupe tonkinoise):

Noodle & meat portions are ok for the price. The beef quality is good---all the cuts were juicy & flavourful but I feel they could've added a bit more. First few sips of the broth were very nice but afterwards its sweetness was quite overpowering. I suspect they use quite a bit of sugar/MSG which is not very pleasant especially if you like to drink the broth while you eat. You may be unsatisfied with the portion size of the iced coffee as the ice:liquid ratio is not balanced.
