“ If you want authentic pho this is the spot, the food is always served hot and fresh the employees are always nice as-well, definitely value their customers and they always give you a cup of water with ice! ”
“ Best spot for pho in Fresno/clovis area. This is my favorite spot. #16 rare steak pho! Hits the spot every time. I went on Tuesday (feb. 4th) the restaurant DOES take debit card unfortunately that day their machine wasn’t working, luckily we had cash on hand. The smoothies with boba are tasty as well! Not so sweet, you can enjoy their smoothies. Taro, banana, mango, strawberry and coconut are my favorite flavors. We had 2 medium #16 (Video) with 2 smoothies w/ boba. Taro smoothie(photo) is the purple looking one. -Ridiculously tasty White smoothie(photo) is coconut Our total came to around $43 and some change. ”
“ I like this place a lot. The cooking is authentic and legit. It’s cash only, but this shouldn’t be a problem since the prices are very reasonable. I’ve been here 6 or 7 times and find that the food is consistently good. It doesn’t feel like the cleanest place, but don’t be dissuaded. Order the pho and feel the health flowing through your veins! ”
“ I have been coming here for 7 years, tried every pho spot in Fresno/clovis. Pho 1 has the best flavor broth I’ve had and the noodles are perfect $15 out the door for the large, great portions. Everything is clean, looks like they remodeled as well ”
“ Stopped by here on the way back from Sequoia National Park to grab a bite to eat before heading back to Stockton. Atmosphere not the greatest but here for the food. The man who took our order for our food got our order wrong but corrected it. Food wise, the pho was good, broth was a tad bit sweet for my taste but overall good. The grilled pork rice plate was flavorful and tender. ”
