Reviews For Pho King

We love to make the drive here every few weeks for Pho.(45 minutes if that tells you anything) Great broth and ingredients. Perfect portion. This last visit we got to try a new item that is not yet on the dine in menu, but is on the take out menu. It was a chicken Banh Mi sandwich. We really enjoyed it! The chicken was tender and flavorful. The pickled vegetable along with cucumber all packed in a toasted bun made this a great sandwich! Went perfectly with the soup. I highly recommend it. If you don't see it in the dine in menu ask for it. This is a nice college town place with a small diner atmosphere. Oh! Dont forget to try their specialty drinks! The Vietnamese coffee is excellent!

I have been looking forward trying this place ever since I saw them working on it, and I was not disappointed! My husband and I both got the Eye of Round Pho, plus steamed dumplings and fried shrimp for appetizers. Everything was delicious. The prices were good, too. I will definitely come again!

My husband and I were at home working on stuff in the garage, when our brother in law dropped by. He said a friend at church told him about Pho King this morning, and asked if we wanted to try it. We said sure. I got a pork Bahn Mi...very good. The guys got pho. They really enjoyed it. It was our first time here, but we will definitely be back!

My brother was in town and wanted to take him out to eat and this place has always been nice to sit, chat, and eat! We all loved the food! Service has always been amazing each time I visit!

The ingredients are very fresh. I especially love to eat pho, so I subconsciously compare the ingredients of each pho restaurant. It is really fresh here. The waiter also chatted with us, which was also very nice. I feel like the spring rolls here are longer, I don’t know if it’s my imagination. highly recommended!!!

Got takeout again after a long break. The go-to place for food when visiting Kent. We had Bao, Custard Bao, Eye of Round Pho, Pork and Noodles, and Ginger Tea (Hot), and Cintron Honey Tea (Cold). We would eat everything again, the broth is especially good when healing from being sick.

Clean and neat dinning place near Kent state U! Pho soup base is light (not greasy at all) and very delicious! Love its house special pork bun, it’s served quickly after ordering. Pho may take a little bit time since it’s made to order? But it’s definitely worth the wait, light clean fresh warm soup, love it!

Staff was very friendly; nice enough to let me eat in the restaurant 30mins before close. I had the brisket, tripe, and tendon. Used to work at a pho shop, this place is pretty good; tendon is probably even better. Give them your money!
