Reviews The Pho Shack

Wish I found this Vietnamese restaurant sooner since I've been coming around this area for some time now. I think this is the second location but this is my first time trying this restaurant. First, the restaurant is small and very clean. They do check temperature and they recommend to sanitize your hand. The menu is your typically Vietnamese cuisine, a little bit smaller than some others I've been too (you can access it online or through a code as well so that they are limiting paper) but what they have is good (they also have kids menu as well, but we ended up sharing with my little one since she eats almost anything). My mother ordered the Vietnamese plate and I ordered the tofu vermicelli. What I like was all the vegetable is fresh and the meat was not chewy at all. They marinated the meat so it has a delicious taste to it. What I enjoyed the most was the sauce that came with the plate. As I told the waiter it's what makes or breaks Vietnamese restaurant and what makes me come back or not. I love the fish sauce, it added spice and a great flavor making the dishes more enjoyable. The only thing I wasn't so keen on was their egg rolls, however my little girl loved it so it worked out fine. Overall, the food was delicious and service was good. They are a little slower but it's worth the wait! I will definitely come by again!

My Sunday afternoon visit came after a Saturday full of beer drinking and swimming on lake Travis so I was in need of something to balance me out. Upon entering the place was empty. Maybe I was the last of the hungover to show up. I was greeted and told to sit where ever I’d like. The waiter took my order which was the Vietnamese egg rolls and prime rib pho. While waiting I noticed the facility was well kept with modern music playing and contemporary decor. Both dishes came out fairly quick as most pho places do. The Vietnamese egg rolls were good, I wanted to try something different but kind of wished I’d gotten the spring rolls. The pho is nothing short of great, overall this place was very good and I recommend if you’re looking for something to help soothe a hangover. If I could make one suggestion for the owners, changing the spoon in the chili garlic paste on the table and cleaning the top with a towel. The lid was dirty and the spoon was kind of gross.

Pros: Pho shack is a great place to not just eat but also have a casual date. The food is amazing! The staff is friendly and very attentive. The place is always well kept and there is never dirty dishes laying in the tables. Food portions are in my opinion, extremely generous and there is a wide variety of options in the menu Cons: It is a small place and the location could easily be missed unless gps is handy. Outdoor seating is available but very limited.

You walk in the door and the wonderful aromas of their food will automatically get your stomach rumbling! The food is amazing! Not much of a selection but thats okay the size of the servings and the taste is worth it! The wait staff is very attentive and provides excellent customer service.

Great food at a decent price. The staff was friendly and attentive. Our family of 8 which consisted of 3 small children were all well taken care of and throughly entertained with the show that was playing on the tv. Overall, a wonderful experience.
