What James wilson doesn't like about Pho Friends:
They used to be so good. I ordered twice from Uber Eats recently and they got my order wrong BOTH TIMES. And what food I did get to try, was not nearly as good as they were 1-2 years ago. Want Pho? Want wings? Go across the street to Pho Viet Thai. The food is better, and they got the big beef rib pho over there. It’s delicious. I won’t be ordering from Pho Friends anymore. There are restaurants with way better food... View all feedback. What User likes about Pho Friends:
Pretty good, the side vegetables were fresh and the pho was delicious. I'd come back but to compete with other top tier pho places. The broth could use a little less salt and be more hot so that the tripe gets cooked in the broth better. Almost a 5 for me. View all feedback.

Awesome food. We had pho and tofu bun, their broth has a very authentic taste. The lemongrass tofu is the best from what I have seen here in US.

The chicken wings were extremely salty and the batter had a chalky texture, despite being crispy. The crispy tofu was not actually crispy, likely due to the fac...

Pho Friends has garnered mixed reviews from patrons who reminisce about its former glory. While some diners appreciate the friendly service and enjoyable flavors—particularly with dishes like BBQ beef and pho—many others express disappointment over food quality and consistency. Frequent complaints include incorrect orders, unsatisfactory freshness, and issues with cleanliness. Although there are occasional highlights, such as fresh side vegetables and generous shrimp portions, customers increasingly suggest exploring alternative options in the area for a more satisfying dining experience. Overall, Pho Friends struggles to maintain its reputation amidst growing competition.
