Reviews - Pho 79
Reviews summary
Pho 79 serves authentic Vietnamese fare—standout pho with tender tendon, fresh herbs and a balanced, homemade broth—alongside boba and casual, clean dining (try the roof deck). Staff are generally friendly and accommodating to allergies. However, experiences vary: some patrons report inconsistent quality, occasional off or oily dishes, price increases and a mandatory 20% service fee, plus limited parking. A popular South Florida destination for pho lovers, but expect the occasional miss.
Was Anonym at Pho 79 a mag?
The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. We ordered a variety of dishes, and each one was absolutely delicious. The prices were quite reasonable, and I also checked the restrooms—they are among the cleanest I've ever encountered. I will definitely return! View all feedback.
What DjVickySlick dislikes about Pho 79:
My family went here to eat and got me a to go order. I love this place I always come to eat but today I had the grilled pork chops to go and I swear to go this little part of the pork chop taste and smells rotten. That’s unacceptable I’m paying 17$ can I get some meat that’s not disgusting?Food: 1/5 View all feedback.

I stumbled upon this place on Google and decided to try it out since I was in the area. Wow the food was fresh and delicious. They give you such a generous amount of meat in the pho and the spring rolls were very fresh. I will definitely be back
Food is always great! Would highly recommend if you're looking for a great Pho
Food is good. They charge you 20% tip without asking you. Come on, this is not a michelin starred premium restaurant. Since when I am mandated to pay 20% service fee to get a PHO????
The food was toxic got sick after visit this location
I moved from an area where you could get an amazing banh mi anywhere. This place has one of the best I’ve had anywhere! When you get it for takeout they separate the vegetables from the bread so it isn’t soggy. Their milkshakes are delicious, and the atmosphere is so cute inside. Everyone is really friendly and helpful. When I went to pick up an order with a taro milkshake, they waited until I was there to blend it so it wouldn’t melt. Just amazing!

Platters, apps, bahn mi all great
The food is excellent! I always order the same dishes—either the shrimp or the beef. The egg rolls are absolutely delicious!
I wasn't pleased with how the herbs and condiments for my #26 pho were served in a plastic bag. As a result, the basil and cilantro ended up being mushy and slimy.
Absolutely delicious! Nothing compares to dining inside their restaurant.
Can never go wrong with #30. Love me some Pho 79.

I absolutely love how consistent the fresh ingredients are. The fresh summer rolls with peanut sauce are a must-try. Yes, they automatically add an 18% gratuity, but that doesn't bother me at all. Food: 5/5
Wow! This place is absolutely amazing! I had no idea you could find authentic Vietnamese cuisine in Miami. It's a real gem! The food was incredibly delicious and reasonably priced. The service was fast and excellent! Food: 5/5
If you're looking for authentic BUN BO HUE, this is the place to be! They offer a wide variety of Vietnamese dishes, including seafood boils and boba. I visit every night, and the staff even knows me by name. It's got a great atmosphere! Food: 5/5
Very good food. Menu has a lot of variety.Food: 5/5
This place is incredible. My server, Olivia, was wonderful. I called ahead to make sure they could accommodate my allergies, and they were so sweet on the phone. Which is helpful when you’re driving 45 minutes across town.I had the pho with tendon. The tendon was magnificent. Perfectly tender and gelatinous, and they gave me a generous portion. Every vegetable was fresh and authentic. Real Thai basil, not mint. The bean sprouts were pristine, not even the slightest bit wilted or bruised. Plenty of lime.I couldn’t detect any hint of msg or other additives; the broth tasted homemade. The flavor was perfect. Not strong, not bland, perfectly balanced, complex. Not too sour, salty, or sweet. I asked, and they don’t add fish sauce, they leave it on the table for people to add, so it’s great if you have an allergy to that as I do. The real green chiles are special to me because this is the only hot pepper I can eat without getting chemical burns. It’s been so long since I’ve been able to have slightly spicy soup.I cannot remember the last time I had this many carbs and my head felt this clear. This is the real deal. I’ve been searching all over South Florida for this kind of pho. I honestly can’t remember the last time I had pho this good; it might actually be better than what I had in Seattle 20 years ago.Dietary restrictions: They leave the fermented stuff and red peppers out of the soup. I don’t think they use MSG. I almost always itch and/or have brain fog after eating soup at restaurants, but not here. I had a large, and I feel fantastic. They were super nice on the phone and in person about answering my questions.

I gave this restaurant a 5-star rating two years ago, and it hasn't disappointed since! The food is consistently delicious. My best friend and I come here often, and the wonderful staff member always remembers our usual orders. If you request something, they'll make sure you get your money's worth. The service is fantastic, and the food arrives within minutes, even when it's busy. They really excel, especially during peak hours. This is our favorite spot in Miami for pho. The staff truly deserves all the accolades!
This is my favorite place to eat ever. The servers are super nice, the food is fast, really good portions. when i say this food is sooooo amazing! I get it as a reward for myself, the soup is healing to the soul and definitely refreshing! I adore this place and make the drive every time
My mother didn't feel good, so while I was out, ai bought a big #30 Pho for the two of us to share, since the guy there worked me saying that Zitt was big enough for three people. I also bought grilled pork chops with white rice, sunny side egg and salad for my daughter. I took her home to eat. Both meals were delicious! We can't expect to go there for lunch or dinner.
The food here is fantastic, and the portion sizes are impressive for the price. Although there's a sign indicating they may be busier than usual and have longer wait times, we experienced prompt service and excellent attention from the staff. I highly recommend visiting if you're in the mood for delicious and authentic Vietnamese cuisine.
