What a hidden Gem!
Stopped in today and we ordered a P1 Special Pho (eye of round, brisket, tendon, meatball and tripe, P2 Seafood Pho (Shrimp, fish balls, squid) and a coconut boba. First and foremost the young man working the dining room was extremely polite and friendly. It's a family run restaurant and he described his mother's passion for what she has been doing for over a decade. And let me just tell you, she knows what she is doing trust me you can tell when someone pours their heart and soul into preparing food. This family did just that.
Both bowls of Pho were piping hot and were so full of flavor, every single piece of meat and seafood was cooked perfectly and the rice noodles were firm.
To put it simply this was one of if not the best bowls of Pho I've ever had. I could literally eat it every day. (I actually wish I had some of that broth as I'm typing this review, lol).
The usual accompaniment of basil, sliced Jalapeno, bean sprouts and lime was clean and fresh. Sriracha, chili oil, hoisin and fish sauce were available on the table as well as chop sticks and spoons.
The boba was made in the form of a smoothie and it just worked!
Extremely reasonable prices.
If I could leave 8...
Read moreTook me a while to finally try this place out, mainly cause of the negative reviews from a while ago and not in the area too much. But I’m glad I tried this place now that I live in the Park. I’ve prob been to 80% of all Pho places in Northern VA, certainly all of the places in Manassas and by far this is the best one and I’m glad it’s the nearest one to me. Not gonna say it’s the best one in Virginia as I have been some tastier ones, and I will debate with those that say the 234 one is better because at 234 the prices are not honest and the portions are about 2/3 of what you’d get here at 24. The summer rolls are the best and they give good fresh peanut sauce with actual peanuts in them. (Had a bad experience once, not gonna name names but one place in Centreville gave me a used peanut sauce that you could tell summer rolls had been dipped in already they just put a fresh lid on it a served it to me in my to go) Anyways, give this place a try and you will not be...
Read moreI have been a customer of Pho Restaurants since in ealy 80s. When they newly open this Pho 24, 4 years ago , I was glad because it is convenient from our home. I tried their Pho then and was disappointed. I have been going to Centreville and for the past 2 year I have been patronizing the Pho 234 in Sudley Road (Manassas). Recently (October 17, 2017), I gave them a try because of some good reviews. I had found-out still have the same owner and was terribly sorry for their PHO (broth flavor and portions and they charges customers for containers they used for to go). Most of their customers are non- Asians that doesnt know the real Pho taste like.. I will never recommend their Pho to anyone. Go Pho 234 or Pho Saigon both in Sudley Road and compare. Bet you, PHO 234 is the Best. Reviewer is not...
