Bewertungen von Pho Thy Thy

Have tried multiple pho places on University Way and this one has been my favorite by far. My boyfriend has been eating here for 6 years (and I've been eating here for 3 years) and the quality of food has stayed delicious, while the prices stay affordable. The service is quick and they even remember my boyfriend's and my order whenever we go in.

Great Pho. Iv'e been to this restaurant three times already. The pho is great, to the level of phenomenal but I would have to say my best experience would be my first. The first time I went the service was good as well as the food and there were no troubles. However, I recently went again and the experience is completely different.<br/><br/>At the time I was with my friend who is an Asian guy while I am a white woman so I stood out a bit. Usually when you first walk in you are handed the bean sprouts and other ingredients to put in your pho along with the puff pastry but that was not the case with us. After looking at the sizes of the bowls we decided to simply share an extra large (being more cost-effective). The waiter shortly came to take our order and we asked for an extra large #15 (All the meat) with two bowls. After a couple of minutes he brought the plate with the sprouts and basil and one cream puff and handed it directly to my friend. I laughed a bit that he had only brought one cream puff since there were two of us here and that on the sign outside it had advertised for a free cream puff. <br/><br/>Afterwards the waiter came back with the extra large bowl and placed it once again...in front of my friend. We then proceeded to ask for the bowls to share and the waiter spoke to us in English and Vietnamese and then went into the back for a couple of minutes. We then went back to our seats and waited a little longer until the original waiter brought back one bowl, not the two we had been asking for. Regardless we decided to make do with the giant bowl and the bowl he had given us. That was odd though since so many places are okay with sharing dishes. Upon sanctioning the pho we realized this what not what we had ordered. This was with only one type of meat but the #15 we had ordered had 5 different types of meat. So once again we went and told the waiter and waited. He later came back with a very small dish containing the other types of meat. Personally he should have just taken the bowl back and then added the remaining meat instead of just placed it in-front of us. Now there were four different types of meat but we didn't bother with the hassle. <br/><br/>Meanwhile, as we were eating our pho from very different bowl sizes or waters had not been refilled once. Also, each previous time we had needed something we had to go to the waiter ourselves and not once did he ask how everything was. I understand that it is a small establishment but it is absurd to continuously have to go to the waiter yourself and ask for water. <br/><br/>Additionally I was starting to wonder whether they were treating their customers on a bias. Each time we needed something the waiter would always go to my friend first or offer everything to my friend. At first I thought it had been just based upon gender but I wondered if race played any role as well. When a group (male) came in, I saw that the Asians were always served before the whites in the party. Also when a couple walked in the same thing happened with the man and woman. At first my friend thought I was being dramatic but he saw it too especially when a group of UW Asians came in and the owner (for the first time in that session) immediately got up and ran to get them all waters. These differences were not too obvious with race in particular. At this point I was getting upset since so much of our meal had been hectic and the waiter had given everything we had asked for to my male, Asian friend.<br/><br/>What made me change my mind a little about this restaurant was that there was one waiter who came later. He brought everyone who came in cream puffs and the herb/veggie tray before they had even ordered. He also filled up our waters while our original waiter was no where to be seen. Overall this is a great establishment, the prices are still semi-low despite a small increase. It honestly depends who you have as the waiter. The pho is great and in reality that is what matters most.

Best Beef Pho ANYWHERE!!. Our group of 6 adults and 3 children visited Pho Thy Thy based on Urbanspoon's recommendation and it was marvelous! Most of us got the beef brisket and we all agreed it was the most tender, lean and generous beef portions we've had in pho anywhere. The soup base is addictively good, the noodles are tender and abundant and the cream puffs were a delightful surprise for the kids. The setting is very average, but we enjoyed the food very much in a family-friendly setting. 5-star Pho in a 2 or 3 star setting. Fantastic.

Huge portions for cheap, and it was really good too! I've been craving Pho for a few days now and this place does not dissapoint. Of course, the service leaves a bit to be desired. The cream puff that they give you at the beginning is a nice addition. Fairly large portions of meat, and extra for a buck.
