Reviews for Phobos restaurant and boba in Reno, NV
Every time we go it's closed even though the hours say open. The phone number does not work. All the reviews lead to the same... idea. This place is not worth it. Read more
Didn't try the food and only had the mango boba tea. The ice wasn't blended enough so it was very crunchy. While I'm okay with... having the fruit blended in, the juice was too sweet. And the boba balls were slightly hard to chew. The drink was around $8 andthere was only one size available. The place was empty on a Friday afternoon. And the host seemed surprised to have a customer. Read more
Has to be a front. How does a place with that much square footage have 0 customers and stay open? Went for Boba. It was pretty... janky. Read more
I keep trying to go here but they are literally always closed and have different hours posted on their door and online. I think... its a front and this isn't even a real place. Definitely go elsewhere. Read more
Worst Vietnamese place I've had so far. The layout and atmosphere was sparse and barren but potentially made for social... distancing so let's give that a pass. But when you walk in, they have one of those baked good glass containers with nothing init and no visual menu to indicate what kind of food they have. The cashier was barely ever at the front to the point I sawcustomers come in, look around and just leave like they were lost. Their menu features a few pictures of food and instead oflisting out ingredients, some of their options just list that it contains "seafood". The real kicker is that they didn't haveany boba related drinks on the menu, you have to ask the waiter who just lists it out. Also they don't have milk tea, alloptions are a puree and non-dairy. Food took forever to come out despite there being a single other table with people. For tea,they gave us two teacups and two Dixie to go cups. Which is great because the teacups looked dirty and gross inside. Serveralmost spilled tea on one of us explaining how that just happens a lot with the shape of that teapot. I mean, if that's aregular occurrence, maybe don't serve with that teapot?! Getting to the real part, the food. Ordered two large bowls of pho and2 rice plates. Both bowls of pho smelled awful, there was so little broth to noodles that it barely layered the noodles, and fora "large" order, it was about the contents of a small anywhere else in a larger rounded bowl. For contents of the meat, therewere essentially 1 or 2 pieces of each thing, except for the beef slices which again this was the large we ordered. Tasted awfuland the noodles despite smelling awkward had the texture of soft ramen? I don't even know. The rice plates were even worse. Howdoes a full on Asian place mess up rice? They served in like large plates but had that bowl indent inside. Awful for rice platesand made it feel overcrowded. The grilled chicken order wasn't even a chunk of chicken but just small strips Read more
The food here is disgusting, we ordered spring rolls and they were stuffed with only lettuce and 2 tiny shrimp, and the basil it... had inside was BLACK, the rice paper was completely hard. And the peanut sauce was a glob of something?? When our pho hadarrived the smell was horrible, I have never seen broth so thick and with a horrible taste. Wontons were not cooked at all. Theyseriously probably microwave everything because the noodle were so over done. This is the worst restaurant I have been too in mylife. Read more
Update your hours. Waste of time driving over
The broth taste was not good. The noodles weren't the right texture and meat did not match the menu. Very disappointed with... overall experience. DO NOT RECOMMEND Read more
