The first thing I noticed upon entering was the amazing smells of food cooking. The seating is plentiful, without feeling cramped. The aesthetic uses very light colors and is accentuated by the amount of natural light they are able to get. Then there’s the food! My friend is obsessed with the pho and I have to say it’s among the best I’ve had. As a side dish, I highly recommend the Crispy Chicken Wings with Garlic Fish Sauce.
The best Pho and Banh Mi I've ever had, I come here every time I'm in town and order both.
Pho broth had a sweet taste too if. The sandwich was really good!
Food is top notch! The broth is rich and delicious while the meat used is great in flavor and texture. This is our go to spot for whenever we’re craving Vietnamese and have little inclination to cook. Menu is generally limited outside of the pho but the staff is eager to please and happy to modify as needed.
A true authentic gem. I’ve since moved away from Austin and my wife and I still talk about Pho Phong Luu often, and will stop by anytime we are in town. The pho broth is to die for, and the wings and spring rolls are perfect sides or appetizers. We miss you Pho Phong Luu! <3
Pho Phong Luu has the best phở in Austin – and there is really no close competition. The broth is so fragrant, clear, and delicious. Expect generous portions of high-quality meat and noodles. Service is very efficient and attentive. Even when there is a long wait, the queue moves quickly. I’m Vietnamese and usually prefer other noodle and rice dishes. However, this place does a phenomenal job with its phở and is my go-to spot.
