Pho 88
4.3 / 5 (1239 reviews)

Description

Pho 88 is a family-owned Houston gem where authentic Vietnamese flavors—standout pho, addictive bánh mì, crispy egg rolls and fresh Thai milk tea—meet warm, personal service. The intimate, hole-in-the-wall dining room feels homey and welcoming, staffed by friendly, attentive people whose personalities add charm. Prices are reasonable, portions generous, and vegetarian options available. While the kitchen reliably delivers fresh, flavorful dishes, the dining area could benefit from deeper cleaning and light renovations. A must-try for families and casual diners seeking comforting, satisfying Vietnamese fare.

Although the interior isn't particularly glamorous, it provides a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff is consistently friendly, from the kind older woman to the young adults working there. The older lady's humorous personality truly sets her apart. The food is flavorful and delicious, with each bite packed with taste, especially the bánh mì and pho. There are also vegetarian options available, and everything is reasonably priced.

If I can give zero stars this would be the resturant . Ordered vermicelli beef egg rolls . The beef was so dry that I wouldn't even feed my dog . Told manager and waited 15 min . Second batch was the same . I wonder why there was no customer lol . I wonder how they stay in business with such a poor quality of food service . I would not recommend this restaurants to friends family for sure . It's a run down restaurant that has the worst food ever . What a disappointment experience .

I decided to try this restaurant after someone on the Nextdoor app praised it as the best. While it’s not a fancy place, the two women who run it prepare everything to order. My husband ordered the Seafood Pho and found it quite tasty. I had the beef with white rice (Bo Luc), and the beef was truly tender and melted in my mouth. There was a steady flow of customers picking up takeout orders, which is a good sign. We will definitely return! The service was a bit slow, but everything was served hot and fresh, so I didn’t mind the wait.

Ignore the negative reviews about this place! It's family-owned and honestly the best pho restaurant I've ever visited. The food is consistently fantastic, and the service has always been reliable.

I love It, someone once said if customer service sucks then food must be delicious and I agree. Food is their priority not customer service but I still go once a week!
