STOP going to this place!! No Asian people dinning here for a good reasons.
We camp from Seattle for vacation and after a long day at the Universal Studios, we headed to downtown for dinner. After we googled pho, the place popped up.
It was 7 of us. We ordered 3 #1. 1#6 1 Spring roll and my had fried rice. My wife had chicken pho (daughter didn’t want any)
The service lady was really bed, absolutely not a professional. and the way she’s taking out orders. It’s like she talking to a bad behavior, child.
When our food was brought out, The service lady did not make her way around the table to hang out our order but was “pass it along” instead
I had a #1 Pho and it was absolute garbage. The pho broth was bad with the homemade meatball that were over cook and it was really soft It doesn’t have texture a meat ball. Pho Broth has a lot of MSG. The noodle was over cook. There was no green onions. The Thai basil that go with the soup was an overgrown plant. And we didn’t get our water until we’re about done sitting
My son had a plain fried rice with just egg and That was garbage as well.
This place is a hybrid Vietnamese food, it run by Korean and a Mexican cook.
We had a-lot of Pho in Seattle, Oregon and this was absolute garbage, can not compare.
To any other customers that don’t know or have taste the authenticity of the Vietnamese Pho, this would be good to them, but not to us. This place is robbing people that don’t know what good pho really taste like.
I recommend people stay away from this place.
If you go into any Asian restaurant, and there’s no Asian people dinning??
that mean the place is not good!! That’s my...
Read morePho 2000 isn’t about flash—it’s about steam rising off a bowl, the smell of broth, and a dining room where the food does the talking. The chicken pho is solid, straightforward comfort: clean flavors, no tricks, the kind of bowl that feels like medicine when the city’s worn you down.
But if you come here, you come for the egg rolls. They’re not an afterthought—they’re the show. Crisp shells that shatter on first bite, wrapped around a filling that’s rich, savory, and addictive. These aren’t just good—they’re the best I’ve ever had, the kind of rolls you order “just one more” of until you’ve lost count.
There’s also a story attached to this place. Pho 2000 once served President Bill Clinton, and it’s easy to see why. The food here isn’t fancy—it doesn’t try to be. It’s democratic in the truest sense: honest, restorative, and meant for everyone who sits down at the table.
Four stars, because perfection doesn’t live in polish. It lives in food that stays with you after you’ve walked out the door, food that makes you think about coming back before you’ve even left. Pho 2000 has that. And in a city obsessed with reinvention, this spot...
Read morePho 2000 is like a bowl of pho: you never know what you're gonna get. Or is that chocolate? Whatever, life's a gamble. You rarely get what you expect.
Located in the tender-nob, it can be a sketchy walk at night but overall it's harmless. I enjoy coming here when I want pho because the bowls are big, cheap, and oftentimes delicious. Pho isn't an exact science though, so sometimes when I come it's too greasy, or too bland, or too meh. I'd say 7.5 times out of 10, pho 2000 does it right.
Don't get the big noodles though. BEWARE of the big noodles, they are not like the ones you eat at your grandma's house. The big noodles here are mushy and unappetizing. Stick with tiny noodles and you'll be satisfied with your decision.
I had the imperial rolls once and they were yummy. Very crispy and served with a bunch of lettuce, which is quite authentic. I also tried the bun xeo (pancake crepe thingie) but it was nothing special, I'd pass on that next time.
The place has a homey feel and I always see the same staff so I assume it's family-owned. Don't expect warm service, but they are super quick. You'll be in and out in less...
