Reviews for Pho Xe Lua Viet Thai Restaurant in Philadelphia, PA

Ordered the 106. pho and the Tom Yum soup. Food came extremely fast! The pho had a flavorful savory broth but not a good variety... of promised meats. Paired well with the chili oil sauce on the table though. The Tom Yum soup was not as rich as it could be,wouldn?t recommend ordering it. Read more

I come here all the time for pho. It is delicious and the portion sizes are good! Prices are also very reasonable. The service... is fast and attentive. This is the spot to go for pho if you?re in Chinatown. Read more

Their Bún bò Hu? is good; the soup is flavourful but light enough for a late night snack. A little sad that they don?t have... blood jelly in it, but their pork hock pieces are big and soft which makes up for it. Customer service is really great as i wasdashing in after 10pm during the staffs dinner time and the chief stops eating to cook me a fresh bowl. Thanks! Read more

This place was so great! Quality of the food was great, and the portions were bigger than expected on the pho even though I... didn't order the largest size. I didn't move at all - it was delicious, and our server happily packed it up for me to go. Lovehow lively it was inside - you can tell there are a lot of regulars, including couples, groups, and individuals dining in, andalso via takeout/delivery apps. This was my first time, but my partner grew up in Philly and has loved this place for over adecade - says it's somewhat of a hidden gem that locals frequent, but tourists don't necessarily bat an eye at. To me, that'sideal, because sometimes Center City is crawling with convention goers or tourists, and you just need a place to duck into afeel Philly. This spot certainly fit the bill. Read more

Whenever I'm visiting a new place I always try out a pho restaurant with Bún bò Hu?. I was a bit disappointed that it didn't... have blood jelly even though on their menu they had a photo of Bún bò Hu? with blood jelly in it. They give a lot of noodlesand a decent amount of meat, but not much garnish. I wouldn't say their Bún bò Hu? tasted amazing, but it was decent. OverallI still liked it and they have great customer service! Read more

Absolutely disgusting! Worst pho and summer rolls ever! They should be ashamed to serve these types of food. Take your... hard-earned money and try somewhere else. Read more

The OG Vietnamese restaurant in Philly. I have been coming here for years and it never disappoints. Soup is the perfect balance... of flavorful but not too salty. Price is great too. Read more

Good, not great food veggie food. Ordered the veggie pho (118) and the mixed veggies in clay pot (618). Both were pleasant but... relatively plain flavored. Service was nice and the meal came quickly, but the food wasn't anything spectacular. Read more
