I was so hungry and very excited that my boyfriend took me to a Vietnamese restaurant. The foods turned out to be the most horrible I ever tried in my entire life. We had the Vietnamese beef noodles and mango salad and prawn rolls.

To be fair, the prawn rolls tasted okay. But the beef noodle was terrible. Tasted ugly. And just too few beef. You get probably four or five thin slices of beef, thats it. And the rice noodle was overcooked, too soft, like for babies to chew or something. The mango salad tasted mouldy. I was just too disappointed, could not finish them, even half. Left the restaurant being hungry still because I just couldn't eat much at all. So bad.

De Pho's sauce are the best! The rest are not as good as other restaurants. No offense but the service are terrible! Another favorite of mine is the chicken wings! The crispy chicken is also fabulous. The soup is not so great.

Now this is the best place for Pho in Chatswood. When the lines get crazy, just order a takeaway with the ladies and eat in the food court, I find that's the way to do it instead of standing there waiting and waiting for ages. Love the pho in beef soup with crispy skinned chicken. Consistently great everytime and always the place to go on a cold rainy day. Definitely recommend.

Finally got to try this place, and so happy to find good pho on the northside! My friend and I both had pho Bo and I had the works w tripe, tendons and brisket. My extras weren't as thinly sliced as I'm used to and It was just standard mint leaves. I think if you're a gweilo you need to specifically ask for rare beef ("ethnic" restaurants of the world, please don't make assumptions about your diners and just give us the same food!). The soup itself is great and a fair substitute for An Pho. This is a busy little shop, you will have to share a table and queue at lunchtime. Even before 12 o'clock it if full.

Definitely a popular place, there's often a queue around lunchtime on weekends. Food is good and comes out very quickly. Service is, well, okay for a quick get in, eat, get out kinda place. You will likely end up sharing a table with other people.

Awesome Pho! This place is fantastic I have been eating here at least twice a week for the past year and the food is terrific every time. The beef Pho and the crispy chicken pho are great too as is the vietnamese vermicelli salad with lemongrass chicken. I can't sing the praises of this place enough!

Good place for a quick, casual, cheap eat meal. Don't let the queue put you off as the line moves quite fast and the food is brought out very quickly. This is a small eatery and be prepared to share a table. The beef rice noodle soup is excellent and so is the crispy skin chicken rice noodle soup (you can request it with the tasty beef broth). Very busy restaurant but great for a quick value for money meal.

The food and everything in general is pretty good, but the service, I must say is quite poor. The waitresses aren't really friendly which is understandable because they only work there, but the boss is also quite rude in terms of service. But don't get me wrong, the food is still great, but personally, the quality seemed to have gone down.
