    The pho here is amazing! Make sure to get the Spicy Lemongrass Pho Beef Special that offers Beef Eye Round, Well Done Brisket, Flank, Soft Tendon & Meat Balls.

    Pho Viet is probably most favored for its spicy lemongrass pho, which adds extra heat to the existing beef, shrimp, chicken, and vegetarian pho options offered. Read more

    Despite all the tips about lemongrass, don't skip the regular phò. The delicate broth here is delicious. I like the #11 dac biet special with everything.

    Stick with the regular pho, if you're looking for soup. The eye is better than the brisket. Fried rolls are really good, too.

    The Bánh mì here is one of the best I've had. It comes with a side of fried sweet potatoes and a soft drink, definitely worth it!

    authentic flavorful pho, served quickly, your choice of spiciness, large servings. The venue itself is not fancy, but none of the true pho places are.

    Best pho I've had in the DC area. Quality broth, excellent meats, fresh bean sprouts and basil. Outstanding whether spicy or not.

    Pho in Columbia Heights with standout broth that's inexplicably light and clean, while still retaining the rich beef and ginger flavors.

    Better than pho 14. Get the lemongrass chili half spice if you can handle heat. Skip the vermicelli bowl and summer rolls.

    Amazing! Best place hands down. They go pretty Spicy, so if you're not a fan I'd recommend going mild.

    Best Pho in the city, hands down. Take out can be dicey (noodles don't get soft), so eat in if it is at all possible.

    This is probably my favorite bowl of pho in the DC metro area; possibly better than Pho Hot in Annandale, and definitely better than Pho 75 and Pho 14.
