Reviews For PHO BEN Vietnamese Noodle House and Grill (Formerly Pho 78)

This Spot is the Real Deal—Trust Me Three of us were in town for work and came across this spot—and man, it did not disappoint. The pho, the banh canh do bien, and the vermicelli bowl with everything were all fire. Fresh, flavorful, big-city vibes like Atlanta, Houston, or OC—felt like a real local gem, not some watered-down tourist spot. But let’s talk about that Singapore-style Dungeness crab. Sweet, sour, spicy—straight-up flavor explosion. Honestly felt like we were in an episode of Food Wars—you know, that anime where they eat something so good it blows their minds? Yeah, that. We didn’t even have room for the fried rice, which the owner said is off the hook, so you know we’re coming back. If you’re anywhere near here, do yourself a favor: go. And whatever you do, don’t skip the seafood menu in the back—that’s where the magic’s at.

We just came Florida to look for Vietnamese Food, and found this restaurant. The service is good, fresh food. Excellent tastes, good choices for Asian food. I tried Pho Noodles, Fry noodles, spring roll and Shrimps with eggs salts sauces which are so good tastes . I will be back more times to enjoy food here. Highly Recommend

The new owners did a great job of setting up the place with decor. The food is amazing, and the service fast as ever! I order the Seafood Pho and it was delicious along with a chicken Bahn Mi! 10/10

The boy and I went to a Vietnamese noodle bar on our recent trip to So Flo and it did NOT disappoint! First, it was recently renovated and the decor is SUPER cute! You know I love purple! Plus, the service was top notch! The pho was excellent! It was very cinnamon forward which was an interesting, but delish recipe! They take 28 hours to painstakingly make their broth fresh every single day! That hard work definitely pays off in the taste! The summer rolls were fresh, sized perfectly, and the perfect ratio of protein, veg, and noodles. And I always love a good peanut sauce! The steak noodle dish was AMAZING! Garlicky noods with filet... Nothing wrong with that! The taro boba and the Vietnamese coffee were both on point, too! 10/10 and I cannot wait to come back and try more!

Best Pho you can get in Broward! Maybe even Florida! Been going here since 2013 when it was Pho 78. 10/10 always. Fresh food, clean environment, and great service. Spicy Lemongrass pho with brisket is my go-to order.

This place is a true gem! We were visiting the area and among all the tourist traps and other bland places this place was such a refreshing restaurant . Clean interior and great service . But what really stood out was the authenticity of all the food and especially the seafood thats hiding at the back of the menu . We came near closing after a long day of work and the owner suggested to us his Singapore crab dish and boy was it a delight . Complex rich fragrant flavors that got my coworker and I so excited for our next visit back . The filet mignon and pho were delicious! But definitely definitely try the seafood , it’s not your typical salty cajun flavors . Oh he also has a water tank with live fresh lobster as well, so that should tell you a lot already

Very spacious and clean restaurant. The Pho is very good and so was the other food we ordered. Everything came out fast, but nice and hot. The veggies were all fresh, price were reasonable i highly recommend this place if you are looking for some good vietnamese food.
