Coming from Southern California, I've been hungry for a decent bowl of Pho somewhere - anywhere - in New Haven. Most of the choices in the city are mediocre at best (see my other reviews) so I've been trying to make stops outside of the city to find some unexpected Pho treasures. This is one of them. Pho Madison sits outside of the charming city center, and it looks quiet and unassuming. The dining room was empty when we visited on a late afternoon in January, which worried me since a good pot of pho takes most of a day to make, and enough traffic to justify. But when the soup came out it looked good, and the broth was more than serviceable. It had flavor and a little weight, and the steak didn't come out raw in the hot soup, but was still tender when served. It was far more than we deserved if there was a pot bubbling in the back for the last 8 hours. We also ordered some Spring Rolls which had a nice snap in spite of the winter, but the accompanied peanut sauce was especially good. I'm sure this place gets a lot of love in the summer, but even in the winter (when Pho is at its best) this place is better than anything you'll find in New Haven.

Ever since eating at this place, I find myself thinking about pho at least 3 times a day, sometimes several times an hour. I can’t live without it. This place is truly the bomb. Besides pho, their bubble tea is absolutely incredible and their summer rolls and banh mis are amazingly authentic bursting with true Vietnamese flavor. If you asked me if I would give up all other food to eat this, I would without hesitation. They even have some amazing Vietnamese pop music playing which makes me feel like I’m in one of those early 2000s romantic music videos when I eat with my boyfriend. I don’t understand how anyone can live a full life without trying this place out. Please eat here. I will pay you to eat here. Enjoy the pho-tos I uploaded with this review. Please note that this place did not sponsor me to write this review and this is entirely of my own volition as this place has converted me into a pho enthusiast (I don’t like to call myself an addict).

As a devoted pho lover, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience at Pho Madison. This was my first visit, but it definitely won’t be my last. I ordered the Beef & Shrimp Pho, and from the very first sip of broth, I knew I had come to the right place. The depth of flavor was incredible, rich, aromatic, and undeniably authentic. The beef was thinly sliced to perfection, and the shrimp were cooked just right, adding a delicious balance to the bowl. On top of the amazing food, the service was equally outstanding. The staff was friendly, polite, and truly top-tier. If you are looking for a fantastic bowl of pho, look no further than Pho Madison.

The Pho is very good would recommend. the interior is very nice as well only a few seats though so could fill up fast. Only one waitress but she is super nice and helpful. Haven't tried any of the other food yet but I imagine it is just as good. The pho is light and doesn't leave you bloated after eating your full bowl. It is on the pricier side but also is the only type of restaurant in the area.
