âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ TeaPho â Homer Glen
Iâm a dieâhard Pho fan, but TeaPhoâs bĂĄnh mĂŹ lineup recently stole the spotlight for me â especially the Grilled Chicken Sandwich (BĂĄnh MĂŹ GĂ Nưáťng), which I took up a notch by asking them to throw on a perfectly fried egg. At $8.99, itâs already a winner on paper ďżź, but what arrived was nextâlevel: juicy, marinated chicken, crisp pickled veggies, fresh cilantro and mayo, all nestled inside a pillowy, toasted baguette â then topped with that goldenârunny egg.
The first bite was magic. The yolk oozed into the pickles and mayo, adding a creamy richness that played beautifully with the tang and the savory chicken. Each layer â from the tender meat to the vibrant crunch â complemented the eggâs silky texture. It felt familiar yet somehow adventurous, like a Vietnamese brunch treat.
Service was prompt and warm; the moment I mentioned the egg idea, the staff lit up and gladly made it happen. Itâs that kind of attention and goâtheâextraâmile spirit that keeps me coming back. Honestly, the grilled chicken bĂĄnh mĂŹ was already delicious, but the fried egg? Game changer.
If youâre visiting TeaPho (and you absolutely should), donât skip this upgrade. This sandwich â pho-inspired flavors meeting eggy brunch vibes â is reason enough to make TeaPho a regular...

I ordered the short rib rice plate, and let me tell youâWOW. The short ribs were perfectly seasoned, juicy, and grilled to perfection, laid out next to a bed of fluffy white rice and fresh, crisp vegetables. It was the kind of dish that makes you sit back and appreciate every bite.

   Read moreTea Pho in Homer Glen is an absolute gemâfinally a spot in the southwest âburbs serving genuinely authentic Vietnamese fare. The moment I sat down, the friendly team greeted me with big smiles and helpful suggestions.
When my steaming bowl of pho arrived, the aroma alone was enough to make me happy: the broth was crystal-clear yet deeply savory, with just the right balance of star anise and ginger. The rice noodles were silky and springy, and the generous pile of fresh basil, bean sprouts, and lime squeezed in at the table really elevated every spoonful.
Beyond the pho, Iâm already dreaming about coming back to sample their spring rolls and customizable bubble teas! The dining room felt bright and airy also cozy and everything from the tables to the chopsticks was spotlessly clean.
Tea Pho is exactly the kind of neighborhood eatery our corner of the suburbs needed; I canât wait to bring friends here and work my way through the rest...
