That pork is the best freaking pork I have ever had in my life....so like....order the pork fried rice and the pork spring rolls I am telling you...they are everything and you will not be disappointed. Also, the Pho is amazing, and the staff are top notch. This is the cutest little restaurant, and you will love it. Go. What are you waiting for?

Came here on a weeknight and it had a decent crowd. We got sat immediately. Service was fast and the girl who took our order and checked us out was very nice. The pho here was great! Clean broth and flavorful. Definitely will be coming back here if I am in the area again. The ambiance is meh, I mean I am there to see if the pho is legit or not (which it is), not to stare at the walls, lol! It wasn't horrible but wasn't the classiest ambience. There is a lot of parking as it seems like it shares a parking lot with a Hmong market next door.

Small but mighty! I just discovered this place through a friend and I've already been back twice! It was first time trying the Banh Mi Vietnamese sandwich and now I'm hooked! I also had the jalapeño cream cheese wontons- they were so crisp and served hot right out the fryer! I'm so happy to add this place to my list of go-tos! The owner also came over and spoke with me, she was very sweet!

Staff there are super sweet and friendly. Felt very welcomed! Food is amazing as always. When you need something fast, this is the place to go. Food came out so fast, got out of there pretty quick after dining. Definitely my to go to!

Lightning fast service, our food always comes out very fast, and the staff is always very present, they're definitely on top of everything. A big strength of this place are the people who work here. The staff is so welcoming, friendly, we always end up trading jokes with them, and they're all super good at their job. If the owners ever read this, do whatever you need to do to retain your staff, because they're all stars. The food itself is so scrumptious, really good flavor, everything tastes fresh, the sauces in particular are so nice. The bubble tea in particular is really good here as well, usually I'll order one to go, even if I just put it in my fridge for later. Ironically, I don't usually get the pho when I come here, although a lot of my friends do. I'm all about that Banh Mi sandwich, I'd love to have one right now. I've been trying very hard to get out of the habit of going to chain restaurants, and trying to support more local businesses. I Heart Pho is a great alternative for a quick bite, food is good, but also comes out super fast, relaxed dining atmosphere, very spacious, good acoustics. Everything is also very affordably priced, and the portion sizes are spot on, not too little, and not too much.

I'll tell you why I couldn't give it five stars at the end. The food is unbelievable! The pho broth was light, layered, yet rich. Honestly one of the best broths I've ever had. The spring rolls were bigger than other places. The sauce could have been more sour than sweet for my taste. The service was fine, but very fast. The reason I gave it four stars and not five is because I didn't like the fact they had chopsticks and spoons just sitting in a container at the table. Like anyone could have put their dirty hands all over the utensils you're gonna put in your mouth. Ick.

If you love pho this is the place to enrich that love and just enjoy a beautiful bowl of soup. Discovered this place a few years ago and now that I am on the East side of the river it is a quick 15 minutes away. They offer several different options for proteins. Being a straight forward guy I stick with the classic steak. Eat in or take out you will be satisfied. The regular size is a meal. I haven't tried the XL but it sounds like a party. Great flavor that never disappoints and you get to customize the seasoning and spice. Make it your own. Glad I am closer to this joint. I highly recommend.

While there are several great Vietnamese restaurants that serve up amazingly scrumptious and hearty pho, this is my go to spot. It's close to my home and their pho has a clear broth and it's exceptionally fragrant, the two things I look for. I could make my own, but when I'm sick (especially the self inflicted kind of sickness caused by whiskey) or really cold deep in my bones because it's winter 7 months out of the year in MN, I can't wait two days for my homemade pho. I call "I Heart Pho" and order the extra large combination bowl and top the order off with jalapeño cream cheese wontons because I've accepted gluttony in my life and I don't care. Oh, and extra bean sprouts for my pho because I'm about that fresh and crisp feel in my pho. I've never dined in, but no matter what time of day it seems there's always a decent amount of diner and orders to go lining their counters. The staff is always friendly and my meal is always ready to go in the 15 minutes they say it'll be ready. I heart pho. That is all.
