Pho in Kingston Upon Thames offers a mixed experience according to reviews. While some praise the friendly service and good food, others express disappointment with the authenticity of the dishes, particularly the pho noodles and broth. Positive comments highlight delicious spring rolls, crispy pork, and comforting beef brisket. The restaurant's ambiance is described as cool and vibrant with ample seating options. However, criticisms include inconsistencies in sauce thickness, presence of foreign objects in dishes like black pieces and hair, as well as issues with shredded brisket instead of slices and non-bouncy meatballs.
Tanvir was amazing, very friendly and hospitable as usual he's helped out multiple times.
Portions are great and food tastes amazing. Highly reccomend the pho and curry been on multiple occasions and have been consistently impressed.
My friend has a sesame allergy and they were very attentive to take care of him also had vegan options for another friend.
If you are vegetarian, this is a good cafe to go to as there are a number of options.
We had the following:
- Wok fried rice with shiitake mushroom and basil. It was spicy so do take note. We loved it but found that too much rice was given compared to the amount of mushrooms.
- Wok fried flat noodles with tofu and mushroom. This was also nice and came with a myriad of vegetables including spinach and snow pea pods.
- Plant based chicken summer rolls (unfried). Highly recommend this - it really almost tasted like chicken (a bit too crunchy for chicken).
All in all, a great experience and would recommend for the price point and food quality.
Great vibes, music, staff and last but certainly not least food. It was AMAZINGGGGG! Me and my 9 year old brother came here and he said “I want to eat here every day.” Will 10000% be back again, thank you so so much ❤️
Amazing food as always, restaurant was quiet (after lunch rush 3pm) but experience was fantastic.
The fresh juices are unreal. I went for apple, mint, lime and ginger. They’re made to order and it was bursting with flavour. My friend got the Pride punch which was also delicious.
Staff were super helpful and friendly (thank you Rowena) and the food came out very quickly. Highly recommend!
We had a disappointing experience at this restaurant. For starters, we ordered the veggie crispy spring rolls, which were delicious, but it took an unreasonably long time for them to arrive.
For the main course, we ordered the beef brisket pho, which was served ice cold. I asked for it to be replaced, and after waiting six minutes, they brought back the exact same soup—still ice cold.
In cold weather, we were hoping for a comforting hot soup, but instead, we were served something completely unappetizing. The quality was far below what I’ve experienced here before. I felt embarrassed in front of my friend, who was visiting this place for the first time based on my recommendation.
I won't be dining here again. This was truly a terrible experience.
