I am writing this will food poisoning after eating at Pho Golden. I should not be surprised as, even with snow on the ground, the woman’s restroom had only ice cold water. The hot water handle had been broken off and removed. Clearly hygiene is of low importance to them. They served bad tasting food made with the cheapest possible ingredients while charging high prices. For example, I got the tofu spring rolls which contained only a tiny sliver of tofu with the rest being noodles and lettuce and came with a sickly sweet sauce. At minimum I was hoping that the rolls would contain any type vegetable: shredded carrot, pepper, cucumber, something!
I walked in for a to go and ordered the beef vermicelli bowl. I specifically asked for extra jalapeños, and I got exactly one slice of jalapeño. I also asked for chopsticks and they were ready to send me out the door without them. I could not seem to get a smile out of the lady behind the counter. I purposely approach people with a big smile and a joyful attitude, and this little lady behind the counter just wasn’t having any reciprocation whatsoever. One of the reviews I read mentioned PowerSaver mode and yes, the restaurant was dark, but it smelled really nice of incense for the Buddha. Big ups on the indoor plants! Overall, I think customer service and comprehensive English communication and fulfillment of guest wishes is where this place misses the mark in a big way. Oh, and yes, the price was pretty high. $18.50 a vermicelli noodle bowl. Meh! Good thing there’s lots of other great places to choose from up and down S. Golden Rd. This spot won’t be one of my go-to’s.
It's pho, it's not cheap though, this place is way overpriced for what you get. $20 for a bowl of pho is ridiculous.
I love this place. Their broth is amazing, service is great, and veggies are always fresh. Yum—highly recommended!
Really cool decor. The food was fine, but I was expecting more (flavor and/or quantity) based on the prices.
Delicious hot big portions. Delicious brisket Vietnamese noodles soup, pure delicious. Totally recommend this great restaurant.
Used to be my go to place but they recently switched to Skipli as their ordering system and their prices went through the roof! $26 for singapore rice noodles that used to cost like $14 a few months ago - sad but no longer worth it. Also noticed the new Pho Canyon in Golden now has an identical menu with the same insane prices - guess I’m driving to Denver
I've been coming here for years, love it.
Don’t waste your time or money. Left hungry after $80. Didn’t give us correct order. Told them and they didn’t even care. Only came back to get the money. Food tasted old and from a package. Went to sonic right after. Bad. Such a dirty place as well. Smells of mold. After seeing the bathroom….cant believe we are there and that the place is still open.
