Never had pho before, but I thought this was pretty good. The broth was amazing and super flavorful, just wish I didn't get the meatballs in mine, they were just ok. The beef was good in it though.
Every time I go to pho 95 I am never disappointed. The crispy egg rolls are my absolute favorite egg rolls on this earth. They are always fresh and the #17 is a favorite between myself and my boyfriend. Really chill environment, nice staff, and great vietnamese food. Please don't ever change your food Pho 95!!!
The dining area was clean and well cared for. The staff was wonderfully pleasant and helpful. The food was not what we had hoped for. This may be a difference in Vietnamese cuisine and what we were expecting. Many times we have had similar noodle soups in Taiwanese restaurants here in the U.S. and restaurants in China. They had a much more depth of flavor than the pho we had at Pho 95. We do not live in the area but if we did, we probably wouldn't return. I don't think our experience should be a reason to not try this restaurant. It is probable that we prefer a more Chinese noodle soup than a Vietnamese pho.
So SO glad this restaurant is here.Tucked in the back of the shopping plaza, but don't let that dissuade you. Great quality, friendly staff, and VERY clean interior. Everyone is professional but still welcoming and pleasant. Pho extremely tasty and a wide selection of types of pho. Plus, they have many many other dishes, so if you don't want the pho (for some crazy reason) , you have lots of equally delicious options.
I am not familiar with Vietnamese food, however, it doesn't matter, because I know when food is fresh and tasty. That's exactly what this is! The chicken noodle Pho is delightful, and a medium sized order fed two of us for two meals. I also highly recommend the spring rolls. They are chock full of fresh herbs like mint and basil and are extremely fresh tasting and are accompanied by a tasty peanut sauce. Crave-worthy! The cold beef sandwiches are good. Beware of the fresh jalapenos tucked in there! The beef in the sandwiches is a bit chewy, but perhaps that's part of the charm. The french bread it's served on is lovely. Prices are super reasonable. A hidden gem in St. Chuck.
