We visited PHO Fifth Ave. on Friday night. The reason we ate there is that it is the only pho place open until 10 p.m., while most pho restaurants in the area close at 9 p.m. We arrived around 9 p.m., and there were still six tables with customers dining. We ordered the Char-Grilled Shrimp Paste on Sugar Cane Rolls ($9), which were really delicious. The P4 Pho Tai Tau Gan Sach ($17, large) was good and had a big portion, which I couldn't finish. I should have ordered the regular size for $15 instead of the large. All the meats--beef, fatty brisket, flank, tendon, and tripe--were very good. The only issue was that the noodles weren't hot enough and were hard to separate. The P1 Pho Dac Biet ($18) was also good. The only difference between P1 and P4 is that P1 includes meatballs, while P4 does not. The service was good and quick. We will definitely visit again whenever we're in San Diego.
I haven't had a bad experience since coming here on occasion even with the owner change. P2 is always my go-to, then I switch it up with Bun thit nuong and egg rolls. The food is quick to come out and never tastes bad or cold. It's a very casual place/eatery when you're drunk or have a hangover. I recommend to people who need it for convenience
Updating my review to say that 6 years later this place never fails me in my time of need. I have been frequenting pho on fifth and it truly still hits the spot everytime!
Been going to this specific spot for over a decade. Service is prompt and the food arrives in almost no wait , piping hot! The broth is key in Pho and it's amazing! Delicious. Perfect for today's rainy day. Everything is consistently flavorful and tells why it's still standing while other places have come and gone on this block. You will be pleased and satisfied.
The mans is always craving pho and with me always down for some pho, we came here for a late lunch. The place was pretty spacious. The bathroom was so tucked away in the back it felt like a journey getting there lolol. The service was very lax, I think you can easily sit and chill for a bit, and they wouldn't mind. I got the Small Pho Filet Mignon ($15), which I highly recommend! Their meat was way softer and tasted richer too. The broth was on the sweeter side compared to ones I've tried in NYC. I had to add more lime to balance out the flavors, but I love that their wedges are so squeezable compared to other pho places'. AND they offer sauce dishes as part of their utensils self serve counter, which is something I am always needing but it's never conveniently available like that. I also thought I was still going to be hungry after reading reviews on the small bowl, but the small actually got me feeling stuffed! The Large Pho Dac Biet ($16), aka the #1, was ok to me. I tried their beef, and they were dry. I had a piece that had too much fat and too tough to chew, that it became a waste. The prices are more expensive than what I'm used to for pho, so come here for their filet mignon pho if you want something slightly different and delicious!
