Pho Covent Garden in City of London, Westminster

Multiple strands of hair found in food, absolutely disgusting. To avoid.

I booked a table online, and the restaurant cancelled the booking, so I called asking the reason. Someone answered, saying that the restaurant would close at 9 p.m. for "works" so the latest book would be at 8:30 and I would have to leave at 9. I said it would be ok, however, as I might still eat by 9 at least to let me finish. Obviously, I would not order any more food as the kitchen would close at 9 pm. The guy said that after my temper ( I was nice, polite and laughing while talking to him) he had to check if he could take my booking! Then he told me that I had been banned from making a booking and I could walk in, seriously ..... this guy has no customer service at all, shame for the restaurant.

Me and my friends decided to try this place out we’ve never been to a pho before and it was absolutely amazing, the food was delicious we will definitely be coming again!! we were served by Luke his service was soo good he was so nice! Food came out super fast too!! Overall it was a great experience I’d rate it a 8/10

Great service and overall experience when I came in for lunch today. Highly recommend the pork spring rolls and three meat combo rice bowl but I've never had a bad meal at Pho!

I love a good pho and I got the spicy beef one here and it was absolutely delicious!!! Staff are all very friendly and provide great informative service! I would highly recommend here to anyone in the area!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had the pleasure of dining here, and our experience was made unforgettable by our amazing waiter. Tall, kind, and with a natural charisma, he made us feel right at home the moment we walked in. His warm smile and attentive service added a touch of charm to the evening. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and his recommendations were spot-on—everything he suggested was bursting with flavor and authenticity. Not only was he attentive, but he also went above and beyond, checking in just the right amount without ever feeling intrusive. It's rare to find someone who combines professionalism with genuine kindness so effortlessly. Thank you for making our night special! If you’re lucky enough to get him as your waiter, you’re in for a fantastic experience. Highly recommended!

I dined at Pho on Long Acre a few days ago and couldn’t leave without sharing a review. The atmosphere was warm and modern, and the food was spot on—flavorful and authentic Vietnamese dishes, especially the pho. Levi, our server, was incredible—friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful with recommendations. A great experience overall. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience and felt very welcome by the staff when I had a little stop at your place in London to go further to Brussels.

The classic pho broth is so aromatic- perfect treat as the weather gets colder. Plus the service is super friendly and efficient. The ideal pit stop when you’re in central !!!

Awful experience, incongruous music blaring whilst you’re trying to have a conversation, creating an awful atmosphere. The food was substandard, both our phos were so salty and overpowered by lime, that’s all you could taste. The ‘spicy green’ one was not spicy and had no greens in, just a lot of noodles and barely any tofu either!! As for the ‘this is not chicken’ vegan alternative in consisted of grey, foul tasting lumps - gross. The service was perfunctory, one of the waitresses looked so miserable and couldn’t even muster a smile - we couldn’t wait to get out hence I tapped my card without realising a ‘discretionary’ 12.5% service charge had been added, £10.71!!! For what exactly?? We were too embarrassed to ask for it to be taken off and I guess that’s how they trick people, so be mindful. Never again, and would NOT recommend as it failed on all levels!!! Oh and I forgot to mention, there was tiny insects crawling by the taps in the bathroom - GROSS!!!

Was such good food and great service!

Always a fab service and amazing food!

Delicious spring rolls. Even though it took a while to be served or wait for a bill

Delicious bowl of Pho Ga served quickly and hot. Great place to warm up and enjoy summer rolls and Pho (rice noddle soup)

Idk why they the noodles off Hutieu to make Pho and taste isn’t good

First time trying Pho in Plymouth!! The food was outstanding, best baby squid we have ever tasted, spicy chicken curry was so delicious!! The cocktails OMG the cocktails, they were soooo GOOD!!. Fabulous setting and fabulous staff , can’t wait to go again!! 🤤🥰

Some of the best asian food i’ve ever had! I went in there for a quick lunch, not expecting the world but as I was greeted and sat down by the staff I was pleasantly surprised with their service. The spicy pho came hot and with loads of garnish which adds to the experience. The broth itself was like a “hug in a bowl” on a gloomy London day. Will be going back!

Food was amazing. Followed them across socials for a while and needed to know what the hype was about. My too fave was the veg spring rolls and the wings - but yes! Pho truly is a hug in a bowl.

Great food and service!! I was impressed with the quality of the food for the price paid. Atmosphere is lovely and inviting which made the whole experience even better!

Amazing service, highly recommended for coeliacs because almost everything is gluten free and the staff is really aware

Delicious noodles (the broth has oodles amount of flavour and depth to it), large portions and tasty food in general which is perfect for a foodie like me. 🍜🦐🥩🥗🌶️🍱🦑🥟

Not an authentic Vietnamese place. Please don't go here. They trademarked the term 'Pho' and they asked small Vietnamese restaurant owners to refrain from using 'Pho' in their restaurant name. Which is absurd as Pho is the national Vietnamese dish. Like fish & chips, sushi or Ramen. Totally absurd. Please don't support this restaurant.

I spent a few days in London and been here for 2 lunches with opposite feelings. My first lunch there was good, place was cozy after 2:30pm and the pho was good. I went again a week later at around 1pm, very full and noisy and rice was not good….Good luck

The friendliest team. Always feel welcome here. Food always great. The team know the menu very well and always happy with the recommendations. Love it

best Pho i've ever had! 10/10 would recommend. the chilis are really hot served with herbs and toppings on the side to add yourself service is friendly

Can’t stand this place. Not authentic Vietnamese cuisine at all. AND they are so stupid for trademarking the word Pho.

Nice food, but limited choice, particularly for children. Service was particularly bad, but this may have been a single instance of our experience, rather than typical

Not good! For anyone reading, check what the owners did when trademarking the word "pho" 👎

Great place with delicious food and lovely people....Ruby was very helpful and nice

The food is delicious, So many vegan and gluten free options available on the menu, the staff who served us were lovely and courteous. The service charges are also optional which you can ask to be removed. Overall we had a pleasant experience.

I visited this gem today with my family. We all loved food there. Absolutely delicious 😋🤤. Service outstanding. Highly recommend

Terrible pho. Thought I was gonna be authentic tasting pho but it’s so plain and water down. The spices aren’t enough to pull off the actual smell and taste. The owner is also white so that explain the food. I got a lot of looks being the only Asian in the store. Then the wait for the food was long ordered but had to wait 30 mins before it came out. Didn’t even have hoisin sauce 🤦‍♂️

Please visit a local, authentic Vietnamese restaurant owned by Vietnamese people instead. We don't need to support people who trademark a word from another ethnicity and try to shut down other businesses like that. Very disrespectful to our culture. How dare you. Shame on you.

Food was delicious and the service was great!!! Will definitely visit again.

Racist business suing all genuinely Asian owned restaurants

Amazing food! Thank you to the team, especially Levi!

Very good service esp from Levi, and the spicy curry with chicken was amazing!

The spicy chicken pho was delicious and I loved the fresh lemongrass tea. Friendly staff and good service!

Great savory Vietnamese food. I've visited this location and another one in Boroughs Market and they are both fantastic.

Food was sooo good. Open till late. Will come again.

Ate here today with my family and the food was excellent, will definitely come back. It was busy but never had to wait long for food/drinks or to pay either. Would recommend this place.

Had both types of spring rolls and they were both yummy! The stuff is very professional and friendly. Highly recommended!

Went mid afternoon so a quiet time but food was fresh, delicious and served quickly and in a relaxed friendly way. We were an impromptu walk in and really pleased we did!

First time eating at PHO. They delivered the wrong drink to myself (everyone else was correct). Then delivered my food wrong, was supposed to have prawns not chicken ( again everyone else was correct).. Then whilst eating the very nice food, they came over to deliver someone else's drink and we had to assure them that WE HAD NOT ORDERED ANOTHER!!! It was musically to loud, which is why I believe they were making so many mistakes.. such a shame, as the food was very good..

My mum and I absolutely adore Pho as a restaurant , we can confirm this Pho restaurant in convent garden is the best one we’ve had so far, full of flavour, lovely staff and great atmosphere. 10/10 will always recommend especially the Curry pho wow 😍

We come here weekly food is perfect service 100%good atmosphere staff are top class will always recommend you thanks

Levi made our experience exceptional, so attentive, so friendly, caring and made us feel so welcome to come back next time. Were semi-lials and this Pho will be top of our list every time we're in the area. Thanks so much!

This particular Pho located in Covent Garden is just the best. Quality service , friendly staff, tasty food & nice atmosphere. Levi was the member of staff who served us when we ate there. He was helpful, super patient and an overall awesome person. I’d highly recommend grabbing a meal here especially after a day out shopping or just running errands.

The curry dishes were fantastic.

Quick and easy. Amazing food. Very nice and friendly staff. Highly recommend

We had an excellent experience at Pho Covent Garden! The Pho Hanoi was absolutely gorgeous, and the chicken wings were delicious too. Although we were sad that some of the standout dishes like Cha Ca La Vong, baby squid, and beef betel were sold out, the overall experience was still fantastic. A special shoutout to Gabe and Princess for their excellent service – they truly made our visit memorable. Highly recommend this place, and we will definitely be coming back. 10/10!

This is a chain, claiming to be Vietnamese food. I ordered a dish of 'noodles with vegetables' and additional mushrooms and tofu, with various garnishes. What I got was a big pile of tasteless noodles, two beans, two mange tout peas, and barely enough mushrooms and tofu to fill an espresso cup. Garnish was a dozen raw beansprouts. Nothing tasted of anythnig, no skill or talent had been deployed in putting it together - the worst kind of low-value assembly line 'cooking'. For the same money in Wagamama I could have got an incomparably better meal.

Absolutely delicious, favourite place to eat!

Always a nice dining experience coming here. Nearly the entire menu is gluten free. Friendly staff!

Good tasty food. I enjoyed my meal today Beef Combo! Lots of flavour. Staff friendly 😊

Really good food and atmosphere!

The Chicken broth was amazing today wow.

Xwho likes viet food. It's ok, a little chaotic

Best Vietnamese we have had in a long time! Great service too.

Daniel our host was fab! Would come again!

Good vibes, good food and good chat thanks Daniel

Very delicious food and kind waiters

Really friendly attentive staff, fantastic food

A very nice chain restaurant which is an excellent destination for the coeliac diner.

Perfect place. The best Pho in this district. When ever I arrive in London, I am coming here. Always fast service. This time, only time in a years, was small delay, but waiters came, apologise and didn't charge me at all. Surprise in London.

Lovely staff, delicious food. Massive shout out to Luke and his team. Thank you and we will be back, for sure!!

Amazing food. Great service. Ricardo and the team were very welcoming.

I showed up at 21:30 with my wife and 2 daughters, but we were rudely advised by the waiter that the kitchen was closing in 10 minutes (bare in mind that is Saturday night in London centre, and the restaurant was empty, only 3 tables were occupied, 20% of the table was with clients). While looking for another place to go, a couple went in as well and the waiter found a table for them. I asked the waiter what was going on, "oh now the kitchen is open" My reply was as polite as the gentleman. If there is any policy regarding eating with kids it should be clearly shown up with responsibilities. If I were the manager I'd be seriously ashamed of this behaviour.

The food and service was delicious! I would recommend the place to everyone

The noodles, broth, and meat toppings are really delicious. Recommended~~ The fact that vegetables, cilantro, etc. are provided separately and various sauces are provided is solid..👍

Ruby was wonderful, very attentive and super friendly. The food was delicious as always too and very reasonable for the area!we had a fab evening and will definitely come back again!

Get dinner option! Ruby is amazing and the food is phenomenal Would 100% recommend

Brilliant food, nice and fast, good portion size and our server Ruby was lovely

I am gluten free and dairy free and we were lunching with an 8 year old grandson and 6 year old granddaughter. The boy can be very difficult to find something suitable and agreeable for him to eat. The childrens' menu was very good. The children ate all of their food and really enjoyed it. I had the chicken salad and it was fantastic. It was so good to be able choose between so many dishes. My husband chose the prawn broth. He said that it was fantastic. We will certainly return.

Amazing service from the wonderful Ruby and Levi! Really lovely atmosphere and delicious food. Definitely will be back :)

Steak could have been definitely better, but delicious broth and still good pho for a quick lunch.

Highly recommended. Excellent food with good waiting times. The service was always helpful and friendly, but nothing exceptional. The ambience was relatively dark but by no means seemed gloomy, but rather cozy. The furnishings are very appropriate and give off a very pleasant vibe overall. The price-performance ratio is definitely right here too. Anyway worth a visit

Noodles soup as always is fresh.

Friendly staff but I am yet to find a tasty meal worth going back for. The artwork on the walls is terrible too.

Had Super Green pho (one of the house specials) and it was delicious! Liked the selection of vegeterian dishes on the menu. Great staff and atmosphere too.

Food and service are brilliant. Felt a bit light of the flavour at the beginning but the fish sauce and chili sauce are prepared at the side of every table. And it become nice and easy to adjust it by yourself which I found very thoughtful. And the bottles of the sauce are so clean!!! Will come back🙂

Great service from friendly staff, who could not do enough for us. The food was tasty, catering for a veggie and a carnivor in our group without a problem. Very good value too An enjoyable evening rounding off a great day in London Thank you

Delicious food and great, and friendly service.

Ruby was fabulous super attentive friendly and bubbly. The spicy lychee drink was absolutely delicious.

Lovely service from Ruby and her team. Curry is the best … but first try the pork ball ! 👍👍👍

Thought it was great, would come again!

Perfect food and amazing service! I highly recommend this place for food

We love the food at the Pho chain, but here we felt cramped in a very noisy atmosphere. Staff as always very, very friendly.

I ordered a take away. It was so bad I couldn’t eat anything. Have never had such terrible food.

Not really impressed with the food, plane taste, small portions. And what we really didn’t expect was the “optional” service fee of more than 10% which was already included and when I asked why it is already on the bill if it is optional the ober described it as something typical for London and gave us the “option” to remove it from the bill. Extremely unfriendly way of asking for a tip! Definitely not coming back here!

Excellent food, good portions and nice staff. The spicy curry was amazing!

Really good food and amazing service.

A great pit-stop for a pre-theatre graze! Delish food and super friendly staff, and good value too!

I ordered the Pho Xao noodle dish with chicken and Prawns costing £12.50. When it arrived, there were just 2 prawns on the plate. When I mentioned it to the waiting staff, I was told the dish normally comes with 4. The kitchen provided 2 more prawns, but they added it to the bill as an extra charge of £2.50. If you say there is 4 normally and I find 2, how dare you charge me for what should have been there in the first place. Overall it was a very bland dish and lacked a reasoning for costing £12.50. Horrible service

Daniel was absolutely amazing!! The service and the food were top notch. Yum

Was looking for a place to eat and with the help of Google we found this little gem, good food and solid service and would recommend.

First visit and we are thrilled. Super delicious food and a highly motivated team. We felt very comfortable and the food was amazing. Will come again on the next London trip.

Delicious food, great, friendly service, Daniel was looking after us. Thank you for a good experience. I can highly recommend the place.

Great food, very friendly and helpful staff( Daniel). Portions are really generous, and there was a great selection of Vietnamese beers and cider. Highly recommend the place 👌

Ricardo and the rest of the staff looked after us really well! The food was incredible, and I cant recommend the iced coffee enough too!
