The veggie pho is amazing here. it is probably my favorite veggie pho in Austin. The tofu is perfectly cooked, and appreciate that they don't just put mushrooms and try to pack the soup with toppings instead of just noodles and broth. Price is also reasonable, and they validate parking!

UTea Pho has an excellent chicken pho. Incredible service, they give you a free water bottle when you sit down.

I've been here so many times I cannot believe I haven't reviewed it yet, but it is one of my favorite spots in austin! Their pho is amazing but their pan fried noodles are slept on. I always get the flat noodle with tofu and it hits the spot every time! It is located in West campus so the parking can be hard to find, but there are some street spots available! Most of the staff are UT students and they are super sweet and patient.

I like this place! They have some good noodles, close to campus, and great service. The protein portion size is a little small for the price but it's a convenient spot to grab some food.

Really solid vietnamese restaurant with yummy cream puffs in west campus!! Workers are nice and pleasant. The inside is clean, simple, and has a ton of natural light from the tall windows. The cream puffs were delicious and beautiful! Loved the strawberry one, which was drizzled in chocolate syrup. The pho here is also good with generous portions!

Our family came here late at night before its closing since there were not many options around, and everything was either met or exceeded our expectations. We cared most about the food quality and the Pho was no exception. We ordered the fried rice for the kids and they finished it all. Service was on point and the young male servers were really nice, chit chatted with us and make sure we got what we needed.

Stopped by for lunch the other day and glad we did! Service is quick and the restaurant itself is casual and clean. We ordered the spring rolls, which were very generous servings. The sauce was a little more peanut heavy than I'm used to but it was very good nonetheless! I ordered pho, which was also a generous portion that i managed to finish completely. My partner ordered a vermicelli bowl (lemongrass chicken i think?). It was delicious and I would definitely get that again. Wish we had something like this place closer to us. Food is great and doesn't break the bank!
