The Pho - Modesto
The Pho
Description
While the restaurant offers a clean, spacious interior and friendly staff, diners report mixed experiences regarding the food. The limited menu features commendable vegan options, including pho with mock meats, spring rolls, and fried tofu. However, many felt disappointed by the lack of bold flavors and appropriate toppings, leaving some feeling unsatisfied after spending considerable amounts. A solitary beverage option—water—did not help the overall dining experience. Despite the affordability and decent quality of some dishes, the combination of limited choices and fluctuating flavors suggests room for improvement to elevate the dining experience further.

Though there aren’t many options, each one is delicious! They have vegan pho that has a variety of mock meats (I’ve heard you can order vegetables only if you want to avoid the mock meat), spring rolls that has a delicious peanut sauce, and fried tofu that remind me of fried prawns. They also have a variety of drinks including boba, but I haven’t gotten that.
Thankful for the 2 options/ the pho and spring rolls. But it wasn't as flavorful as you'd think. I left there hungry and paid practically 60$ for it. They didn't have any drinks other than water unless I wanted sodas.
I love that they have vegan options, order was placed on my behalf, I just had to pickup and pay. Upon entry of the establishment I appreciated that it’s large inside, and very clean. I’m huge on the whole experience so it was most appreciated, staff/personnel were also super friendly. There were a few others eating inside and it was nicely spaced out. The spring rolls totally hit the spot post-run, they were affordable and like others I’ve had before. The peanut sauce was decent, extra points for the peanuts on top as I like that extra crunch!

Firstly, the other place was $3 cheaper and offered a much larger portion. The large pho here barely had enough noodles and meat for me and my 3-year-old, while at the other restaurant, we had plenty left over. I always order the #3 Pho (which includes beef eye round, brisket, tendon, and flank), but I only received around four pieces of tendon this time. Additionally, they didn't provide any sauce or utensils. This experience has made me reconsider my loyalty to this restaurant. I'm afraid I won't be ordering from here again, as it just doesn't seem worth it anymore.
