Pho Tai

For a quick Pho you can try this place. The service is fast and price is affordable. No fancy stuff but the Pho is good. I order a large bowl and I finished the whole thing. Be ready with your vaccination records as it is a requirement when dinning in any restaurant in Seattle. Must try for quick lunch.

As far as environment, it was as I expected; informal yet warm. The younger waitress was courteous. The older host was…as pleasant as an older woman could be at 830pm. On to the food. I ordered the tofu pho. Tofu was too chewy. Like it had been a few days old. It left me unsatisfied. The noodles were good with the right mixture of sauces. The sauce’s containers were sticky to the touch. I scrunched my face every time I had to touch it. The spring rolls…refried and had subtle vegetable medley inside. The side sweet sauce was way too watered down to be a compliment to the roll. The stars are more than the staff than food. Optimistic for a better experience by others but there will be no further business from me.

Used to enjoy this spot. I think it's under new management because the woman at the register did not speak Viet (she had no clue what I was saying when I ordered). The food has changed in quality & what it actually should be - I spit out my spring roll (eggroll) - I think it was filled with salmon?? whatever it was, it was incredibly salty and unexpected taste-wise. My banh mi was completely soggy and didn't stay together what so ever. I did not recognize my meal as Vietnamese cuisine.
