Pho Viet Noodle House — Restaurant in Gonzales

Our first visit but likely not the last. Atmosphere is casual and relaxed with nice decor. The food tasted exceptionally fresh and everything had great flavor. Our order; Shrimp Spring Rolls Shrimp Baco Pho Dac Biet (beef pho with multiple meats) Galaxy Crush Mango Pop'n Boba Unsweetened Ice tea

Spring Rolls come with 4 pieces and a peanut sauce. Nice crunch to the veggies and the sauce is delicious. This would make an excellent small meal for one person.

Shrimp Baco looks so simple, but there is so much flavor from that little dish. Will definitely order again.

I did not taste the Pho. That was someone else's dish. They loved the soup, the steak, bean sprouts, and noodles. Not so much the meatballs. I did try the meatball and thought it was okay. However, not a fan of the texture...it's just a personal thing. Flavor wise...no complaints. My dinner partner also had the Boba tea. I did take a small sip just to try. Full dislosure...I don't particularly care for sugary teas and not a fan of Boba. That said, it did taste good. And my boba fan guest was very happy.

With tax, our total (before tip) came to $44. And there is a full bowl worth of Pho in the fridge. The Pho servings are substantial.

Our server, Brooke was very helpful and...

My first visit to Pho Viet was awesome! The restaurant was pretty busy when I arrived around noon, but I was able to find a seat at the bar. You seat yourself and there are menus all over so you can see what’s offered. It took less than 2 minutes for a server to greet me and take my drink and food order. I ordered the beef pho with the rare steak, brisket and tripe, and it was delicious! Served hot in a huge bowl, with the bean sprouts, basil/mint, jalapeño slices and limes on the side. And a dish of delicious slightly sweet, thins cut pickled onions. So perfect for mixing with siracha and topping each bite of pho! The restaurant was clean and the servers were attentive. There are 2 private bathrooms for men and women, also very clean and well stocked. Pho Viet has a self service vibe that I really enjoyed as a solo diner. I ordered a Vietnamese coffee to go which was one of the best I’ve ever had. I would definitely come back and try more pho and/or...

I'm leaving this review to spread awareness. My husband works in the area, so we've had lunch at Pho Viet several times. The service, food, and overall atmosphere have always been 10/10. Today, we had lunch there, and the customer service was ok; I’d give it a 5/10. The waiter was a little weird, but overall, he was kind and got the job done. We ordered spring rolls and pho. The spring rolls came out first, and as we were eating, my husband immediately stopped when he noticed a roach glued to the shrimp. Luckily, he was still working on one, so he didn't reach the contaminated one. We called out to the waiter, and he came and took the plate. Although he asked if they could make us something else, I was disappointed that management didn't come over to offer an apology and acknowledge us. Everyone just carried on. Anyway, check your food before diving in. I understand that most restaurants may have roaches, but I don't want to see them around me...
