The food, the people, the service are all hands down amazing! There's not a single week that goes by that I don't make a stop here with my family for some pho and because it's undeniably the best pho spot in the world; there may be a wait from time to time but trust me it's worth it every single time so if you're in the area or are even thinking about making the drive please do yourself a favor and give this family owned business a try and you just might love it and them as much as I do.
Excellent and authentic PHO! The best in Arizona. The broth was seasoned so well, it was just perfect in my opinion. A bowl of pho can honestly feed two people. Most Pho restaurants barely put meat in their pho but this place puts plenty. Spring rolls were fresh! Thai tea was really good. I can't say anything negative about the restaurant, service was awesome! Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. Parking is a bit difficult because the place is really busy and there's only so much spaces provided. But trust me, it's worth it! The vibe is real chill, music was awesome. If you want real authentic Vietnamese food, please visit this restaurant. You will not be disappointed
Absolutely delicious pho I've been looking for. Very friendly staff. Seems small on the inside but there's plenty of space for lots of full tables. Highly recommend the steak and meatballs pho. Tried the iced Vietnamese coffee with milk and it was super strong and tasty. Would come back again. Huge pho portions too.
If you want to taste Vietnam without traveling - THIS IS IT BABY!!! An unassuming and modest restaurant in the heart of Phoenix, Pho 43 is ALWAYS packed with good reason! This is AUTHENTIC and the most delicious Pho to comfort any hunger pang. They have oversized Pho bowls the size of steering wheels and THEE BEST chicken fried rice, any New Yorker would be jealous! We also ordered the veggie rolls wrapped in rice paper - soft and chewy on the outside but crunchy and refreshing on the inside. Everything is cooked to order and worth the wait. David, the owner, is so humble and expressed only gratitude to be blessed with a consistent packed house. Please come and support a family owned business that puts their whole heritage in each dish. Make sure to either come early to beat the rush - in Vietnam Pho is also eaten for breakfast. Or, be prepared to wait with a book , and they will call you when your table is ready. Your food comes out in minutes and the salivation begins
One word...BOMB! First time there. Got there early because I heard the lines can get a little long. Sat down and was served right away. Ordered the beef meatball Phó and I couldn't believe how big and deep the bowl was. But just as unbelievable the bowl was, so was the Phó. Very flavorful. Not bad for a hole in the wall.
