Phở Viet — Restaurant in Amsterdam

They were out of the Chicken Pho which is why we came here. They suggested the beef version. I ordered that and it had no flavor. I saw some siracha sitting on a table and was trying to get the server’s attention, but after 20 mins, just grabbed it myself. Siracha didn’t help and by the time I was able to add it, the soup was cold. I’m used to lots of flavor so maybe they just don’t make it this way here. But then we finished up and I waited for the bill. The whole restaurant had cleared out with the exception of one table and they still didn’t make eye contact or bring the bill. I then asked for it and we paid it. I’m very disappointed that this place didn’t have good service or flavorful food. I wouldn’t mind paying $40 for a meal if it came with good service and/or food, but it surely did not. I’m shocked that it has higher reviews. I have to believe that maybe the cooks just had a bad day but I’ll never know because I’m never coming back. This was our one experience to try Vietnamese in all...

One of the best meals in our lives. My wife and I love Vietnamese food and have eaten it all over the U.S. The versions we tried in Belgium were a bit different interpretations than in the U.S., and not to our liking as much. We ate at Pho Viet and were blown away by the subtle flavors. The steamed summer rolls had a delicious lemony herb in addition to the usual mint and/or basil, and the whole thing popped in our mouths. I had the Bun Cha Gio (vermicelli topped with fried chicken rolls), which was excellent. My wife had the Vietnamese pancake (Banh Xeo) which was transcendent. In the U.S. the Vietnamese pancake (Banh Xeo) is usually given with a lot of lettuce leaves so you can wrap pieces in lettuce and eat them that way. I'm not sure if that's based on authentic Vietnamese practice, but that's not the way it's done in Belgium or the Netherlands. An...

I took pho and fried rolls with delivery. The package of the soup was completely leaked and soaked other items. Nothing left in the soup cup. I asked the compensation to the restaurant and they just kept saying that it was the driver’s fault and not us, so I had to call to the delivery company. Or I can order something little snacks or something and they can add the extra soup instead. First of all, I had to wait 40mins for the first delivery and then again, they try to let me wait another hour or so. That was extremely disappointing experience ever. The guy on the phone, he was not serious at all and even laughed at the situation. Insane. His attitude made it even worse. It was my first time to try the restaurant and was looking forward for it. It will never happen again. I won’t...
