Review Pho 87 - Las Vegas

Anthony Elisarraras
I thought it was closed when I walked in, not a very inviting place. I noticed the empty restaurant. Someone came to greet me, seemed like they came from the kitchen. He sat me then asked if I was ready to order, I ordered a Thai ice tea and water. Then when he returned with them I ordered the Chicken Pho or (White boy special) as listed on the menu. Looking around the place was really falling apart and looks like maybe someone lives there. I saw a sign that said "if our foods dont meet your standards, lower your standards. People with lower standards are happier" and another sign that said "Our prices are high, if your not willing to pay for good food go somewhere else." I felt uneasy, I felt like I should dash for the door, but it was too late I had already ordered. I was delightfully surprised to see how fresh the limes, bean sprouts, and thai basil was, this is often my first indicator that the place is a good pho restaurant. The "White Boy Special" was steaming hot and it looked so fresh, the chicken looked like it had been cooked by the broth. The noodles were wider than most pho restaurants but it was a just tender as the thinner noodles. I slurped up the noodles and broth so fast, I even think my, server/cook/host got joy from me eating his soup. It was a pleasant surprise. I hope more people have a similar experience! I also would love to see the place be renovated and opened up to be a more inviting place.

Absolutely love this place. I first came here with my father around 2019 and we absolutely love it. Our server(s) were extremely hospitable and made us feel at home. Pricing is a but expensive but your are paying for amazing food. Decorations were adorable and made me feel as if though I had walked into my aunts house. I was treated as a family member by Mai ( ?I believe thats how you spell it? )and I always came here for my birthdays and school celebrations. Overall, I really recommend Pho87 and continue to be a costumer after almost 4 years!

Cool little spot on the outskirts of China town. The owner was friendly and funny. She stayed and chatted with me at the table. She had a dry sarcastic sense of humor which becomes very apparent with the signs on the wall. Food was excellent. I tried their oxtail pho. Super tender meat, fresh basil limes and beansprouts. The soup was much more flavorful then a lot of the other pho places in the area. The food here is a bit higher priced then other pho places. If that's a concern you should question why you don't think you're worth spending a few more dollars on yourself. Overall I had a great experience and I'll sure I'll return

Been coming here for years every time I come to Vegas and the Pho is always amazing.

If you want REAL Pho and personal service, this is the place to go. This restaurant has been rated 5 stars and the famous chef Emeril visits here often. Most of the food is made fresh, so even after you are placed at a table you may be waiting a little bit. However, it is all worth the wait.

Best Pho broth on the planet. Far better than anywhere in south Vietnam. The owner is nice, to nice people. I been going here since 2010. The prices have gone up a lot, so I don’t come as often as I’d like to, but the food is all made from scratch, with no MSG.

Pho 87 is one of those small restaurants that has amazing tasting food but when your there you just wonder how the hell they are still in business. The place is always empty, and has been for the last 6 years I have eaten here. I always get the grilled beef Pho, just add s little Sriracha for a little heat on the back end and you have the perfect PHO. The downside is the politics. The owner is pretty conservative and she lets you know it. I couldn’t care about the owners politics at any restaurant, as I just want to eat some good food and feel I got my money’s worth. When I have to hear about politics at dinner and it isn’t brought up by a family member it isn’t what I want to hear. I have to imagine plenty of people who have complete opposite view from her being completely disgusted and never wanting to return.

Come in with open mind and enjoy the good food. Read tons of mix reviews but I will say this: definitely one of the best pho I had. It is a straight up family own, mom & pops noodle shop in a building being wrap up in a glamours network TV endorsement that they just don't care about.

This is what real pho should taste like! Not your MSG watered down version that you get at the local joint. Yes expensive. Yes the environment is rather eclectic with a buffet area that looks like a garage sale. But can’t complain about the pho. One taste and I can taste the deep rich flavors of beef bones and oxtail, not MSG. We called and confirm that they do not use any MSG in their Pho. My partner would also attest to that since he is super MSG sensitive with bloating and stomach ache. We will be back!

I love going here for the oxtail pho. This is where I had pho for the first time, and have been going here for a few years. The people there are very friendly, and the lady there is one of the most friendliest people I have ever met. When I go there, I look forward to conversing with her. I have been to other places, and it is just not as good as what I get here.

I've searched for good pho all over the valley. I went through Yelp and i couldn't believe how bad the top reviewed phos were. Then I found this place and my search was over. Best pho I ever had. Prices are definitely high and it's so worth it. My boyfriend thought he didn't like pho until I had him try this place. Now he realizes it's all about the quality. I'm so grateful to have found this place.

Food was excellent! Staff very friendly! The price was a little higher than I'm used to paying for Pho but once the food came I could see why. Quality ingredients.
Damious Durugai
All-time favorite place to get pho and I have been to a TON of them. The owner is hilarious and makes the dining experience very memorable! I come here AT LEAST once every time I'm in town.

Best Pho and spring rolls around! I have eaten pho all over Las Vegas. I've been going here for a long time. Hands down the best homemade broth and super fresh ingredients! Let me forewarn you....you want the best then you are going to have to pay a little more... but it's well worth it. Mia the owner is amazing and very funny...she is witty and entertaining. Don't waste your time going to all these other places. Once you try their Pho nowhere else will compare.
James Dominguez
Definitely nothing special. Many, many other choices for Vietnamese dinning available, and all with better flavor and much more authentic. The food was fine, but there was just nothing to bring me back. The owners quirky interaction with the customers was charming at first, but off-putting by the time we left.
John Iglesia
The food was good however the service is extremely lacking the server and I can only assume owner was very condescending and treated me with no respect I was on my phone planning my wedding with my fiance where she went to comment to not be on social media while I eat and will I come to this restaurant to eat like I'm at my grandmother's house. When she asked me a question she would often walk away before I can answer she avoided eye contact and continue to disrespect me for no reason. I called to try to complain to the owner or the manager but she answered and told me "don't call to complain we don't want you here anyways so don't come back ever" It's shocking to still have this level of disrespect in 2017 decent food horrible service do not eat here.

Falishia Howard
So good! Highly recommend. Wish I could give this place and Mia 10 stars!!
Hazel Vallejos
Pho is delicious ! I try to come here each time I’m in town. Also the Vermicelli dish- one of my favorites.
Austin Clark
The food amazing the owner even more amazing if you don't like it that's because it's not a safe place

The best I've had drove all the way from Tucson Arizona to get a bowl from here cause no other place back home compares. And the owner if too awesome

Never go here. Walked in and notice all the Trump support signed. Decided to leave before we ordered and the lady took a cheap shot of saying, "food too expensive?" Stated that we just didn't want to dine in a business that supported Trump and she wanted to argue with us. Funny thing, first thing I notice on the menu was "White Boy Pho", and thought it was pretty racist to have a dish named that. I should have known something was wrong when the restaurant was empty.
Shawn Rivera
u definitely dont need any thing to put in the pho 🍲 da broth is on point. best in town hands down.
Charles Enloe
Best pho in Las Vegas, hands down..real deal.. I've ate pho all over this town, but this place right here... try the ox tail soup, excellent also...
Gary Chee
Easy up on the m.s.g and it should be good but I'll try other places in area also on my next visit
Michael Crutcher
Great food, interesting conversation with the owner....a great combo....try it ! �
Jennifer Haines
Really good food, fresh. It was really laid back, I was able to watch my game.
Holly Cox
I have enjoyed it every time I have been there. I tried the egg rolls this time and they tasted great. I will eat here over and over.
John Edmond
Been going here for years. Best pho in town and the owner is hilarious.
Gary Paulino
A slap in the face to Food Network. Would never come here again. Restaurant was empty, decor looked like they were having a garage sale with random things all over the place, my grilled pork (which was hard like jerky) and rice came out cold, you can tell the pho broth was loaded with MSG, and customer service was horrible. The lady host was extremely rude and arrogant. Oh and prices are ridiculous... I've had better for half of the price! Never Again!
