Pho Tau Bay

Needed Pho and was in a part of Minneapolis I didn't know we'll and found this place. What can I say I would definitely go here again if im in the area. Unfortunately I live next to University where you can find amazing Vietnamese restaurants every few blocks. I think I had a bowl of Pho with everything and egg and spring rolls. I remember the egg rolls being the best I had tasted in a while while the Pho was fine but but nothing special compared to what I have had before. Price and service was fine for these types of places.

This pho has a very rich broth. The the staff was not overly friendly and the restaurant it self was a little run down but overall the food was very nice.

Quick service and even more delicious food. The restaurant is spacious and clean, and the staff is friendly.
It’s tucked away at the end of Eat Street but there is plenty of parking and right by the Greenway entrance!

Here's the deal with Pho Tau Bay - it is for sure one of the tier 1 soup houses in town. Arguably the best of the godfather joints in Minneapolis. Super reliable and consistently flavorful, after 15 years of eating here I can honestly say I've never been disappointed.

I more or less always get the number 6 or the 42 which will be no surprise because everyone loves those two. Outrageously great. If you get the 6 get some egg rolls too because a little crunch really adds to your meal.

I mark this a 4 only due to ambiance, which in fairness has improved a lot over the years. And it kinda is what it is. But yeah.

Spring rolls are very good, so was the vermicelli with beef and shrimp. The portion was good, meat was tender, veg was balanced. We also ordered the broth soup with meat that is mixed in, also very good. I'd go back and try some of the other styles of food.
