Pho Thuan Thanh

Excellent food. They are always willing to customize dishes and everything is yummy. Service is great too.

Great place for phở! Menu is extensive and very cost friendly. Service is quick and fast. Better and cheaper than the other Vietnamese restaurants in the Mekong Plaza…

I’ve been coming here since summer time and finally got my dad to try it. My grandmother had a couple vietnamese restaurants in the Philippines when my dad was growing up and he says this is the best and is just like grandma’s! This place is delicious, the phở is exceptional (the first place I didn’t feel the need to add hoisin sauce), their vietnamese sandwiches are delish, and mine and my family’s favorite is #81 banh cuon… this is the best place for that dish, not a lot of places make it, the only other one i can think of is at the vietnamese place attached to Lee Lee’s in Chandler but it is subpar. I was told this dish was my grandmother’s signature at her restaurant. I just love love love this place. I think within a month my dad has invited me to eat here almost 15 times! Im excited to take my white friend with today!

My boyfriend and I love going to eat here. Hidden restaurant in the back of a plaza behind the dominos. The food really taste authentic. Prices are so cheap. Two big bowls of soup, an appetizer, 2 drinks, and Togo pre made food for under 30.
Banh xeo as an appetizer — crispy Vietnamese crêpe.
I got the bun bo hue and my boyfriend got the phở Tai nam. Both great and flavorful.
Took the mam trung? Togo (not sure if I spelt it right) which is a steamed eggloaf. Very hard to find, I was so happy they had it!
We will always come back!

The prices for the food are very reasonable here but with that said I thought the food here was just OK. I tried their Phở noodle soup and their Banh Mi sandwich, nothing much really stood out for me. The service here was not particularly great as well as it did take a long time for my water to be refilled however that can be typical of Vietnamese restaurants so that doesn’t necessarily surprise me too much.
Phở Thuan Thanh is an okay option but I was really hoping that the food would have been better. I’d like to try their rice plates here sometime as I haven’t had them yet.

Great food and inexpensive. Bun bo hue, beef phở, pork bar. The ground beef grape leaves with the rice paper and lettuce are a fun experience to enjoy. I expect to come back and try other dishes! Clean place the service is not bad. Not Excellent. But who cares… remember very inexpensive phở mmmm great for a rany day!

The food here is amazing! I lived in SE Asia and the food here brings me back there. The prices are also great! The iced coffee and phở is amazing! Highly recommend.

Just moved here from Seattle. I was totally craving good authentic Vietnamese food. This place met my expectations. I ordered phở and the hubs ordered bun. Both were excellent. Place was very clean also. We’ll be back.

One of the best tasting phở places around. I like to say the sketchier the better for good phở, which is definitely correct for this place. It is tucked in the corner of Broadway and Dobson and very easy to miss if you don’t know where you are going.
The service here is hit or miss as well as the food sometimes. But you can’t expect that much from a lesst than $ 6 bowl of phở. Sometimes you get the ideal combination of meat and noodles in declious broth and sometimes one or more of those elements are off. The spring rolls are also really good if you can get over the grease. The rice plates are also a good deal with a good helping of meat and broken steam rice.
Overall its great for the price you pay.

Had lunch here today. Opposed to what others had said, the place was clean and neat. The spring rolls were large and delicious. I had a bbq pork banh mi (sandwich on wonderful crusty roll) and beef phở and my son had their phở No. 1. He frequently eats Vietnamese food and thought it was one of the best he has tasted. We split the sandwich and dipped it in the phở so I guess you could call it a Vietnamese Dip! Service was fine and attentive. The prices were more than reasonable and we plan to return.

This is my favorite Vietnamese place on the East side. I’ve searched long and hard for a place with phở and banh mi. You would think it wouldn’t be that difficult to find, but it was. I definitely favor them over the places in Mekong plaza. The phở broth is flavorful and the pork in the banh mi is delicious. And it is all very reasonably priced! However, I’ve been here twice and they were out of sandwiches, which was quite a disappointment.
The service is okay… But I don’t really care. I’m just there for the food!

The only reason that I’m not giving this place five stars is because of the service. That’s it– that’s the only reason. It’s not that they were rude at all– they were just your typical Asian restauranteurs: indifferent, inscrutable, and inattentive. This is far from uncommon in many restaurants, so I can’t really knock the points too much. But that, combined with the condition of the tables, was enough to knock a point off. Every table that wasn’t occupied was dirty. Not filthy, mind you, but obviously they had only cleared the dishes from the previous occupants and not even wiped them down. Which, honestly, I could give less of a shit about, but I feel it necessary to point it out because I know that some people really get turned off by that.
Alright– all that being out of the way, let me talk about the food. The food was GREAT! They actually have shrimp paste on sugar cane, and it’s honestly the best that I’ve ever had. The sugarcane itself is SO juicy, and the flavor of the shrimp is just insanely good. All of the ingredients were fresh and tasty, and I really enjoyed making my own ‘wrap’ with them. We both had the Number One phở, and it was delicious. The broth itself has an obviously beefy characteristic, and it shows that these people put some serious love into their stock. All of the meats were great– all of the ingredients were top-​notch. This had tied for my favorite phở in Arizona, and it was everything that I was hoping for.
I’ll be back. Many times, in fact. If they can show me that they keep a clean house, then I’ll bump them up to five stars in no time.

From the second the door was opened for us and we watched everyone hustling about at high speed with lots of tables pushed together for large family gatherings we knew we scored.
We actually chose #27 seafood because we liked the picture and couldn’t pronounce it plus I didn’t have my glasses to copy it down. For real. We lucked out it was almost as good as the picture.
Also had the #2A phở with Beef & vegetables. The spring rolls were so fresh and wonderful. A must have at this place.

3.5 stars easily. Being that I feel like a walking ice cube 99.95% of the time, I decided that I needed a nice bowl of phở to warm up with. I’ve been wanting to check this place so tada! I popped in with the mister for a bite.
Portions are huge even without the extra-​large upgrade and the flavor is decent. I’m not Vietnamese but I can still appreciate the care that went into their broth. Minus my Bun Bo Hue not having pork blood, I’m a happy camper! It’s not my favorite phở place by any means but at $ 18 for two entrees, an order of springs rolls, and an order of egg rolls, I’d still be back. Phoenix phở place prices in the comfort of the east valley, huzzah!
Service is pretty non-​existent and the servers like to walk around singing loudly to the music, much to my amusement. It’s okay though because all I really need is a water refill when the jalapenos starts burning a hole in my mouth. This is just your typical «Shut up, sit down, and eat your damn food!» kinda place with no frills. I dig.

Very good food n very affordable! $ 2.75 fora banh mi sandwich !!!
Most dishes under $ 10!
Beef phở had a great beef broth n generous portions of beef n noodles.
1 minus they do need to devein their shrimp.
Otherwise fast n friendly service for good food
We’ll be back.

Because of an unfortunate incident, the other location was permanently closed. I don’t know if this place is a reopened version or just happens to be another location chain. But it gets 5 stars for the delicious food and the cheap price!
The extra large bowl is $ 7. Seriously? That’s cheap. The regular bowls are $ 5.50+. Usually, phở places are $ 8 or more so you can see why this is awesome. Plus, their broth is full of flavor. One thing you should try is the stew #7 because it is packed with meat. The phở that I get is packed with meat. None of this 3 pieces of meat crap from the other restaurants. I still had meat in my bowl at the end of the meal. The amounts are generous which is another reason for the 5 stars.
Appetizers are cheap too. Cheaper than a lot of places where they charge you like $ 5 for spring rolls. Here… $ 2. Yeah…
I don’t know about the service cuz I’m not really high maintenance but their service is ok. And the restaurant is medium clean. Oh well. I just came here for the awesome phở, anyway.

I’m not sure how this place got a 4 star. I’m very picky when it comes to phở. Maybe that’s the Viet in me or the fact that nothing compares to my mom’s phở.
This place has horrible service. Which is unfortunate since the food is pretty decent. It took us 20+ minutes just to get some water and menus. When we got our menus they wanted to take our orders right away, on the spot. Um can I look at my menu first?
I ordered the rice with BBQ pork. So com suon nuong. Yummy. My family ordered phở. By the time they got their dishes I was already done with mine. My Thai tea had more ice in it than actual Thai tea. If it wasn’t for my family I’d never come back here.

Did not know this place was here. Actually ran into one of the workers picking up some ingredients at Mekong market and he ask me to come check them out. Who doesn’t like a tasty bowl of number one to get the blood moving.
Located in a tiny strip mall with a serious no frills setting and décor. Inside is large and very basic with several tables to enjoy your meal. Each table comes with all the standard Vietnamese sauces or condiments. Nice!
Been here a few times and normally go with one of their soups and maybe an appetizer. The menu here is rather large with a good variety of different items. Always see a lot of the local Vietnamese foodies coming in and chowing down on some of their favorites.
Usually get here early for lunch. On many occasions the place looked like it was not cleaned the night before or maybe after the morning crowd and several tables are still not ready or set up for service. Hmmm?
Food is rather good and the prices cannot be beat. Just try and pretend you are on a top secret mission and maybe give them a chance to clean up before you get there. It can be hard to enjoy your meal when there is a vibe of panic in the air with them trying to get the place ready.
Definitely recommend checking them out. Service is probably the area they should focus on to improve the overall eating experience. A-​OK and then SOME!
3.5 STARS

NEGLECTFUL… one of the worst dining experience I have had.
We came here by recommendation of a «friend.» Friend is in quotations because it was one of the worse dining experiences, and it was so bad that I wouldn’t even recommend it to an enemy. I came with two Vietnamese people who were craving a particular dish that they wanted to introduce to me. My friend called ahead and said they had this particular dish, but when we arrived, they said they didn’t have it because they were out of vinegar.
Okay, So not big of a deal, they were out of vinegar, it can happen. So the server suggested like a grilled version that you grill at the table. We also ordered two bowls of phở with that.
After about ten minutes. The guy brought out the grill and the plate of uncooked meat and the rice paper skins and veggies. And… That was pretty much it for almost 20 minutes. We watched the other tables around us eat and leave and My friends were getting very annoyed and we were all pretty hungry. So I made one last attempt and personally walked up to the server and said we’re missing the two phở, the grill is not on, and were missing a bowl of water to wet the rice paper.
He came out with the water and we continued to wait for the phở. Once the phở came, it wasn’t even that delicious or flavorful as I had at other phở places. My friends agreed.
So, in summary, the food isn’t worth the poor service and long wait.

$ 5.25 for a huge bowl of phở! $ 2 for spring roll appetizers! The prices can’t be beat here, nor can the huge portions. The menu carries a wide range of dishes, from soups, to rice plates, to banh mi sandwiches.
We started with the spring rolls. They were crispy, nicely fried, with a delectable mixture of veggies, ground pork, and shrimp. We each got a sizable portion of dipping sauce to go with the rolls, which I appreciated.
We also got the phở ga, and the #59 rice porridge (Mixed meats– squid, shrimp, fish meatball, pork, and imitation crab). The phở ga had a sizable portion of chicken and noodles, and came with a heaping platter of bean sprouts, greens, and limes on the side. The broth was very light tasting compared to other restaurants. The rice porridge was nicely seasoned, but also a «lighter» type of rice porridge, with more liquid and less rice than I usually see at similar restaurants. There were about 2 pieces each of shrimp and squid, a few pieces of imitation crab, and some scattered slices of pork in the mixture.
I also ordered a Vietnamese iced coffee. It took a long time for all the coffee to drip down into the glass, but once it was ready, it was a thick potent concoction, strong, smooth, and sweet.
Service was very basic. Aside from taking the order and bringing out food and drinks, we didn’t really have anyone check up on us. I had to grab my own straw from the packaging table, and grab my own to-​go container to package up my leftover rice porridge. We paid for our bill at the cashier’s table.
Overall, I enjoyed the food, and I’d definitely come here again to try more of the items on the menu.
