The Monkey Bridge - Seattle

Pho was boring. Other food was okay. Service was very quick and friendly. Atmosphere was silent.Food: 2/5

Absolutely incredible. The staff are always so friendly when I've come in and the Pork Banh Mi's are amazing! It's way out of my way but worth it!

We dropped by on a Thursday evening and the shop had lots of seating. Portion sizes were huge for the price (mine was 1.5x a comfortable size ! The pork and white meat chicken has eggs, and the staff was very keen on letting me know due to my egg diary intolerance. Would love to see smaller portions for cheaper :

Delicious pho and spring rolls, attentive service and a peaceful setting. their portions are very generous and will leave you with leftovers! will definitely be returning

Once you see broccoli listed in their soups, you know it's not authentic...but hey, it's Ballard they cater to the demographic here. I have come here three different times and it's been very sub par. I think The Monkey Bridge Noodle Soup is supposed to be their take on Hu Tieu Nam Vang, but not executed very well. Another reviewer had said it was sweet and I agree. Not much rich pork flavor you would expect, it's a watery and sweet tasting broth. Might be the same broth they use for their dumpling noodle soup. Not to mention again it has broccoli in it which is not typical. I will give them credit for allowing you to choose between rice noodles or egg noodles for this soup specifically as it should be anywhere. Good and friendly service, flavors are just not there.
