This has been my favourite pho place since moving west 10 years ago. Always friendly service and delicious pho. Lots of variety on the menu but can't go past the pho!

After being a regular for several years, I forgot my wallet one night and the lovely lady that owns the restaurant said that I could pay the next time I was in. I was so mortified that I went home to get my wallet and came back straight away to pay but I so appreciated her understanding. Very kind people.

Came here for lunch on Thursday, the place was quiet. Plenty of free tables. Quick service. We ordered beef pho, prawn spring rolls and pork wontons soup - all were very delicious!

One of the best pho places I have ever been to, hands down. Bloody delicious. Not much else to say about this place. It's simple, cheap and to the point.

Thank you SO much for returning our keys that we dropped on the street and going out of your way to leave us a message on our car! We’ll come and eat at your restaurant soon.

The Pho was good as usual but the offensive anti injecting facility posters and stance was completely unpalatable. What kind of people oppose services that save lives? I've been coming here for years but I won't be going back.

This family run restaurant is slightly off the main thoroughfare within the Footscray town centre. We were early arriving before 930am and most of our usual haunts on Hopkins St have yet to open. Hence we turned into the side street admiring the street bazaar and then found this place. Order bun mam and mi vit tiem. See our orders below - Tasty and no regret!

Well intentioned restaurant that's active in the community. Food fairly average by Footscray standards however since there's so much competition in the area.

Tasty vegetarian pho! Everything was nice, except that the carrots are a bit hard. This was spicy enough for me, so didn’t add in the chillies.

Tugged at a corner, so didn't notice it before. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Vietnamese Beef & Pork Soup noodle), the soup is tasty and the meats are nice too, but there wasn't enough noodle, just a bit more noodle would make it perfect.

You want to have good pho and a wide selection of other Vietnamese food AND want to bring your dog along, Pho Tam is the place. Warm welcome to the human, warmer welcome for the furry one.

The best pho in Footscray. The staff are so lovely and friendly and always welcome me with a big smile and hello. The variety of dishes is great and everything I've tried on the menu has been delicious. I always come back for a big bowl of pho though. The soup is so rich in flavour and the noodles are so good. Not the thin ones that fall apart. Thick and good but of chew to them.

I love this place for it's great Pho and friendly service. They haven't reopened after the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions and I really hope they do!

A Footscray institution. This is my all time favourite pho. Great food, lovely people! Huge menu, and if you're vego or vegan you'll be very happy with the options here.

A great local family owned Vietnamese restaurant

Has the usual favourites including pho in its verities, rice paper rolls and a selection of broken rice dishes

The food is delicious, the portions are generous and prices cheap

They open early and serve congee as well as Vietnamese coffee if you're looking for breakfast

A small cute Vietnamese noodle shop. Tucked away from the busy Barkly St, it garners a lot of customers. I've only tried the special dish Mi Quang and it was delicious. Flavoursome and a great proportion. Super cheap too which is hard to come by. I would like to try the other dishes next time. Friendly and quick service. (*Minimum $15 EFTPOS)

Chicken & beef brisket pho is pure comfort. The salads and drinks are great too. Smash a Viet style iced coffee for a true Footscray buzz.

My favourite Pho in Melbourne, worth the drive from Box Hill when we're in the cbd on the weekends. Low prices compared to Springvale, only $11 for a normal bowl of Pho GA (chicken Pho). Delicious broth, which pairs well with their medium spicy chilli sauce. You always get fresh lemon and sweet onion, and heaps of bean shoots. I ordered the Pho GA with Maryland twice previously and it's so tender, this time I got the standard chicken slices and it's still better than the standard slices you get in Springvale. Also the tea is good, you can pay with Visa/Mastercard no surcharge, and the lady owner is nice What else do you want from a Pho restaurant?

This is a Cambodian restaurant. Similar but not the same as Vietnamese. Some unique Cambodian dishes including the ground crab and meat noodle soup. Even the pho is different as they also use pickled onions to enhance flavouring.
