Pho Real Viet Kitchen

This is a great, cheap local restaurant. My overall first experience was amazing. Food came out fast, extremely delicious and portion sizes are reasonable. Be aware this is full self service, tipping is not required. Utensils, napkins, extra bowls, water you have to do that all yourself. Food is brought out to you. Personally I do not mind this style at all. If you want the full service where a waiter comes to talk to you, this is not the restaurant for you. Come here for quick eats but I’d avoid from 2:30pm on, that’s when all the school kids come there to eat and it can get quite busy!

After working out nearby, I suddenly craved a soupy noodle dish for lunch. I unexpectedly found this clean, comfortable, and stylish self-service pho restaurant! Their pho broth is light and the meat portions are generous. Looking at the rice dishes at other tables, the portions seem quite substantial too! I'll definitely try those next time! I'm surprised a place this good only has a 4.1 rating?! Could it be that the nearby high school students don't realize how high-quality this restaurant is? In any case, I'll be coming here often from now on! This place is awesome!

Can't believe we got a good Vietnamese joint in the neighborhood. Reminds me of the OG Vietnamese place that used to be in Prince Street Flushing. Staff was friendly and the broth and noodles are delicious! 😋 Today was their soft opening and they did great! FYI This place is self service. No waiter. So you need to clean up after yourself. Forgot to take pics of the food. We got really hungry.

Delicious pho and chicken over rice! I have tried many Vietnamese restaurants. Their pho is very good, along with their pork over rice and chicken over rice. They are still in their soft opening phase, so their menu is limited. In return they offer 10% off on many items. Their location is convenient, they have plenty of seating, they offer self service kiosk ordering / free hot tea, and no tip is required. You throw away your own food when you are done. I have been here twice and I would definitely come back. This place is a gem. I hope they keep prices low to remain competitive.

I was excited to try this place but the food didn't live up to the expectations. The sandwiches have really great ingredients. The veggies are fresh and the meat is tasty. The downside is that the bread made each bite so dry. I'm not sure if the bread was stale or something. The signature pho was decent. I liked all of the ingredients in the soup. The weakest link of the pho was the broth, which lacked flavor. The Thai iced tea was sweet and refreshing.
