Mom’s Pho Place

I couldn’t find a number to order and according to Facebook they closed in. MARCH 2015 and new owners took over.

Yum!
This is a different kind of Phở. More Lao than Viet. The roasted Garlic gives it that classic Lao touch! Come here for REAL Larb, made with RAW beef if you request it! I lived in a Lao section of Denver for years and have longed for authentic Lao food. This is it! Folks are so friendly here, they recognize you and make whatever you like, just the way you like it! Give Mom’s a Try, you won’t regret it!

No my friends this is not Phở, it’s a delicious garlic chicken soup with Phở stuff in it, but no it’s not Phở!
There are no traditional Phở spices and it’s not a marrow broth, still not the worst soup masquerading as Phở that I’ve ever had!
The rest of the menu smelled delicious, and the thai iced tea was good, maybe I’ll head back for some curry!

My run to place for Kao-​poon (chicken red curry noodle soup), Kao-​piek (home made chicken noodle soup), and banh couhn (steamed rice rolls filled with pork and mushrooms). Best dishes there. As far as their phở, it’s not the greatest in my opinion. A bonus is that they deliver!

The broth here can be hit and miss. Sometimes it is a bit too garlicy or not enough, and other times its just perfect! This does not keep me from coming here. I can only vouch for the Steak and Vegetable phở I get (its the steak and meatballs, but I sub veggies for the meatballs). The to-​go order is huge and well packaged and is only $ 10.95. The prices are reasonable and the portions still huge for any phở place. You can get regular or a super bowl, I can’t even finish half a regular.
I will continue to come here on my way home, pick up time is usually 10 minutes so I can run into the gas station next door or get gas while I am waiting after my call in :)
Quite the divey place with only a few tables but great customer service with fast service.

Twice I’ve been here and my brother and I love it. I always get the Kao Peak (#17 or #18) noodles are home made. Only reason why 4stars is because of location. Other than that, this place is good

Their Mongolian beef doesn’t even come close to other places that’s I’ve ate at. And it’s look like a rid up bootlegged food joint. If I was you I say just keep it Moving.

Super happy to find a great phở spot as we’ve only been in town 2 weeks. Fresh, flavorful, huge portions. The flavors were spot on and authentic. Phở is my comfort food and comforted I was:)
Nathan G. I think it’s funny that you have deemed yourself phở master because you’ve tried lots of places in the US haha. Have you ever been to Vietnam or tried to make it yourself?

So I’ve been crazy for Phở for quite some time now. We’ve recently moved here and I’ve been dying to find a good Phở place. We figured that a «hole in the wall» place would be a great shot… not soo much. Not here anyway.
My wife and I ordered Phở here, and I have to say that it was definitely the worst Phở I’ve ever had. It’s not inedible, but it does not taste good. The place is nicer than you would think. The inside is very clean and comfortable and the waitress is very polite and very quick with her service.
My first suspision was when we walked in… we couldn’t smell any phở broth.
I did see someone cooking in the back, but unfortunately also heard a microwave running the majority of the time. The noodles seemed like they had been sitting for a loong time. If you really enjoy this place, I would tell you that you do not know what good Phở tastes like. Some of the other items on the menu looked good, but the Phở was not.
Phở Vietnam is ok and much better than this place. At least in Phở Vietnam, you can smell the broth as soon as you walk in. Hopefully, I will find a place here that serves up some great Phở. In the mean time, we’ll look elsewhere.

Definitely five stars. A small restaurant in the Tesoro minimal at 6^th and Muldoon, its open tip 9pm mon-​sat. It also has a military discount. Now to the good stuff. We had the walking noodles and the pad Thai. Great flavors, everything was delicious and we could taste fresh. Ingredients.
The waitress was very helpful, and yes, mom is doing the cooking. Mom definitely knows her stuff. I usually don’t plan what I’ll have on future restaurant visits, but the food is so good here it’ll take a few more visits.

I eat a lot of phở and I’ve tried a LOT of the places here in Anchorage. Mom’s has quickly become my go-​to. The Tom yum is amazing too. Both are flavorful and don’t skimp on portions or meat (my bowl had 10 big shrimp). I easily get two meals out of a single order.
Heads up: Sometimes on Sunday they open at 2 instead of noon.
