Phở Bắc — Restaurant in Richardson

Phở Bắc is the excellent place to eat Traditional Authentic Vietnamese Phở

Just famous as our great original American Hamberger, Corn dog, and Hot Dog, Traditional Vietnamese Pho is considered ONE of the most famous soups to millions of people worldwide for all seasons! Yes! Indeed this is the ubiquitous Vietnamese soup that helps portrait the beauty of Vietnam country!

In addition, Pho is one of my favorite childhood dishes growing up in Saigon city since 1963. Enjoy eating steaming and unique, tasty Pho brings back great memories of when I was back home. Let’s close your eyes, think about your favorite phở. You can smell the delightful and distinctive aromatic beef stock. It embraces fresh rice noodles, tender beef slides, meatballs, hoisin sauce, hot spicy Sriracha, topping and garnishing with green onion, cilantro, Thai basil, jalapeño, and don’t forget to squeeze some lime, altogether creating a most magical zesty flavor.

It's for this reason that wherever I go, I often tried to find a “Pho” restaurant that knows well about this pure, authentic dish. My family and many other friends have chosen Pho Bac as ONE of the very few restaurants in Texas that can produce this authentic taste of pure pho that I have eaten my whole life.

Two years ago, on his deathbed, my father asked for Phở to remember when he was born in North Vietnam and then immigrated to the South Sàion in 1954, leaving behind the best of his life. You know, my father craved Phở trying to stick with this unique dish all his life. In general, Phở has a special place in our Vietnamese culture, and it brings everyone together from around the world. Like fresh air to breathe, we should enjoy Pho to nourish our bodies and connect with millions of Phở’s Lover like me!

Thank you all for reading my comments.

I was at a dental appointment nearby and being in the Vietnamese 'Hood,, I couldn't resist trying another pho place. I selected Pho Bac based on the Google reviews and proximity to my dentist's office, and was really glad I did. I only wanted to get an order of pho tai to go. First I noticed that the interior is much nicer than many other pho places I've tried. I was directed to the back of the restaurant, near the kitchen. The place was impeccably clean. It was 3 pm but it was at least half full of both Asian and non-Asians. For about $11, I got a very large container of broth, what seemed like a half pound of very fresh filet (wrapped separately so it didn't bleed into the noodles, which I appreciate), 4 meatballs, and all the other pho fixings. The pho was delicious, among the best of many places I've tried. Really enough for 3 meals for me. I also should mention that, as busy as it was, my order came out in no more than 5 minutes. I was tempted to try one of their chicken soups; maybe next time. I will definitely return for a sit down meal and to try other things on the menu.

Addendum: Ive been back a few times--whenever I'm halfway close to the neighborhood. Love this place. Always packed with cross section of Asians and non-Asians. Very clean, very efficient, very inexpensive, large portions. What's not to like? Finally tried the chicken soup. Big portion with lots of chicken, but much prefer...

Honestly I’m not sure why this place was so packed with business but maybe I got a bad batch. I ordered to go and showed up 15 min later with no close parking. I entered and you would’ve thought they were selling bowls for $1 with how packed it was. Good for them. Although it sounded like a school cafeteria in there with the amount of people and close proximity that strangers were sitting. No thanks 😷 I waited 5 additional minutes for my order, (20 since I called) - interesting since everything is already pre packed and looked like it had been in the fridge for days. My noodles were hard (aka stale) and no, they didn’t soften up in the broth. The pre packed backs of bean sprouts, etc was stored at the front desk under the counter (not refrigerated) and didn’t come with lime. The broth container was styrofoam and this doesn’t mesh well with chopsticks as I accidentally punctured the bottom and broth was leaking everywhere. (My fault but still, everywhere else serves plastic/reuse able containers) lastly, they charge extra for “white meat”. Overall, maybe the in house service/quality is better if you don’t mind sitting in a cafeteria vibe place but I’ll try other locations within 1-2 miles over this...
