“ One of the better Vietnamese food in Pittsburgh so far. Very small shop but nice atmosphere. The highlight was definitely the banh mi. ”
“ The pho was to die for. The service was great, they're cash only but there is an atm down the street. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very family owned, but that's how you know it's gonna be good! ”
“ Delicious pho in an unassuming space on Penn in Garfield. The real deal Vietnamese deal. A small bit pricey but well worth it. ”
“ Came in on a Sunday night for dinner around 6pm. There were no other customers seated inside, but I heard several phone orders for pick up. The place was described by another reviewer as "no frills" and that's absolutely correct. We were greeted immediately upon entering, seated, and brought paper menus. Water and the Thai tea were served in red plastic cups. The Thai tea was delicious; not too sweet. I had the #25 spicy beef and it was definitely spicy! The service was prompt and friendly. The bathroom was small, but clean and had sufficient soap and paper towels. The food seemed authentic to me. ”
“ Pho Minh is back to in person dining, and me and my friend went around 6 PM for dinner. We got the spring rolls which were fresh and delicious and I got a beef pho. The broth was perfectly flavored and light and I appreciated the amount of green onions. Definitely will be back to try other things. Note: this restaurant is cash only ”
“ This place is incredible and super delicious for pho. We had it on Saturday night. Please note: Takeout only at the moment. ”
“ This place is currently takeout only. They have really dang good pho. I low key love how they put their noodles and bean sprouts and fixings in ziploc bags for takeout. You get mint, bean sprouts, and lemon with your pho. The pho broth is delicious here and you can tell it is homemade. It doesn't feel too heavy or powerful and is just right! Love that you can get pho with only beef meatballs here since a lot of places here don't do that. They have a lot of pho options. They are currently cash only! ”
“ This is definitely a hole in a wall place. However, they do have some of the best Vietnamese food in town. Very authentic flavors. The only catch with this place is that it only accepts cash. It's my favorite go to Vietnamese place. ”
“ Holy Pho!! Want to get your pho game on strong? Then this is the place for you! The spring rolls are out of this world. I mean mind-blowing! Don't even get me started on the noodles! Beef meatball is my go-to noodle dish. Seriously mouth watering balls with incredible noodles and broth. ”
“ We ordered carryout pho and fresh spring rolls as a nice way to warm up on a very cold Saturday. Originally, we were going to order from Tram's Kitchen, but as of 1/23/2021, they were still closed for renovations. Undeterred, we decided to try Pho Minh, which was truly delightful in its own way. Pho Minh's menu of soups is extensive, but we stuck to our favorite rare beef pho and added meatballs. The fresh spring rolls were an excellent starter, and I honestly think that on a warmer day, I'd likely want to nosh on just these because they were the essence of cool and refreshing. The dipping sauce was quite good and came garnished with peanuts, which I loved. The pho itself was rich and flavorful. If you're ordering takeout, you'll receive the broth with meats as well as garnishes like your sprouts, Thai basil, and limes, along with a bag of cooked noodles. After a little assembly and customization, you'll have a delicious bowl of pho. I quite pleased and felt immediately cozier. We'll definitely be ordering from Pho Minh again. Hopefully, next time on a day that's warmer than 18 degrees Fahrenheit. ”
