Pho lime — Restaurant in Addison Township

I’ve been here a few times and service and food is always excellent. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The food is great, I’ve only been there for the lunch special, for $11 dollars it comes with a drink, appetizer and entree. I will say I wish it came with just a little more meat but overall not a bad deal. Please never get rid of the lunch special! Flavors were great, I’ve had pho elsewhere and it was not as good as this place, plenty of seating although one thing that would make this place a bit more cozy would be softer lighting. I like that they play different music, each time I have been it’s been a wide mix of things so I think the staff picks based on their mood which I’m fine with, better than hearing the same thing each time. I did order takeout once but idk didn’t taste the same? Maybe just me but pho hits better fresh at the table, I only live five minutes away so I’ll just go in and sit. Overall nice little spot close to home for me, staff is very nice, place and bathrooms are always clean, will...

6/2025 UPDATE: Chicken Pho was just BAD. The chicken had a odd flavor and VERY tough! I literally could not eat any of the chicken! The broth was great but the chicken was HORRIBLE! The shrimp egg roll was perfectly fried. The flavors were delicious! Whatever you do make sure you don't get the chicken pho. Also you can get proteins raw and cook them in the broth. UPDATE: Had the steak pho yesterday. 5 tiny pieces of meat and the broth was bland. ///The atmosphere here is BRIGHT and modern with a color scheme of white, mint and green. If you have a hangover stay away! Service is good and welcoming. The employees seem to be happy to be there. Their pho broth(s) are excellent especially the chili garlic with tiny fragments of both ingredients throughout. The BAD... All of their proteins are tough and chewy in the pho. Also, in their sandwiches they provide little meat. It's 75% shredded vegetables. Their prices are the average for entrees and about 20% more expensive for...

Excellent new place that just opened up recently.

The main draw, the Pho, is it incredible deal. For about 14 bucks you get a massive bowl of soup that could easily feed multiple people. However, just because you get a lot of soup doesn't mean the quality is low. Just the opposite. The broth, which is the key part of the pho, was excellent and complimented the large tray of vegetables you get with it well. They also offer more traditional Vietnamese dishes that I am very excited to try on the next visit.

The bahn-mi was also quite good; lots of pickled vegetables on a crunchy French roll. Their iced coffee was also an easy recommendation. Perfect balance of sweet and bitter.

Overall, this is an excellent restaurant that I hope will become a staple of the Elmhurst restaurant community very soon. I will be going back as soon...
