I was excited to visit a pho viet restaurant in middletown DE. That’s why I was so disappointed with the results. We had family visiting from out of town so I wanted to take them home somewhere nice. The vegetables were fresh that was the only good thing but not good enough reason to return.We were never greeted while walking in, instead we were just stared at with blank faces by the staff. The chili sauce had hair in it and the soy sauce and other condiments looked filthy with old sauce surrounding all of the tops like it had never been cleaned off. The table was greasy and dirty. (Looking back we should have left immediately) I ordered the boa brisket which was unfortunately served cold SMH! & the pho flank steak. I ordered lemon with water for a drink because I was parched When I let the waitress know there was something floating in my drink she tried to say it was pulp. Green particles floating in water is clearly not pulp! Once notified, the waitress should have served a fresh cup of water. Had to ask for a new cup with lemon. If I could rate this place zero stars I would. If I were a food inspector I would have shut them down.This place will not last in Middletown with such horrible service& hair floating in the condiments that should be changed on a daily basis. The other reviews are true!!! There is still hair in the chili sauce!!!! Probably the same strand of hair!!! What a disappointment.This was the first...
Read morePho Viet has AMAZING food. We eat a lot of Pho and Vietnamese Food typically at least once/week, and it's so nice to have something in Middletown vs. driving up to Wilmington or Newark. I recently got the Pho Viet Special (#1), and it was AMAZING. Broth was on point, Beef was super tender, the herbs were fresh, and the service was great. We also got some Bubble Tea which was great as well. This will be our go to spot at least once/week now. Pho is something you can enjoy all year round and is great comfort food. Super Fresh and Super Flavorful. They also have other Rice Dishes which was delicious as well. Highly Recommended. If you are unsure on what to get, just get any Pho Dish and you won't be...
Read moreThis restaurant was the first and only Vietnamese restaurant in Middletown. It does have a sister restaurant location in Dover under the same name. The menu is decent, offering a good variety of appetizers, Pho, and rice plates. The serving portion was generous, and well flavored too.
However, it just seems like it's lacking atmosphere and ambience. Staff could be more attentive to the customer's needs and questions. Waiting time for the ordered dishes to be served seems long as well, especially when there are only 2 tables occupied.
Overall, the food is nicely done and tasty, but lacking a satisfying dining experience. Perhaps it's better to order take out for this place rather...
