Unphogettable, Mesa, Arizona Restaurant Details

Food:

It was great, until I got home and realized they didnt pack up noodles in my to go Pho....I came home to broth and shrimp.

Food:

I just moved to Arizona from Virginia Beach in November of 2014. I ate at the sister location in the Timberlake shopping center at least once every month or two usually with a friend or group of friends for years! I always order the #21, which is basically a seafood pho; squid, shrimp, scallop, etc. The broth is perfect and always fresh! Customer service is excellent (at both locations I might add!!)! I have never had any issues with either Pho locations at all.

When I moved to Arizona, it did not dawn on me that the place were owned by the same family, I just assumed it was a catchy name or something. One day I happened to look at the front of the menu and read the 2 location's addresses and was ecstatic! Hands down my favorite Pho restaurants and both ends of the country!!!!

Food:

We eat here on a regular basis cause we love it. The Pho and the summer rolls are great. Plus the place is well run and friendly.

Food:

I love this place. The owner is incredibly kind to boot. Favorite meal is the 27 Mi Ga noodles and veggies with chicken and the crispy lettuce wrapped eggrolls with an iced coffee. I've now talked myself into going there for dinner. Cheers.

Food:

The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. I sat down and was promptly waited on. I ordered #13, which is the pho with rare steak.It came out promptly. All the expected garnishings were served, and all were fresh.

I've eaten pho across North America (travel for business) and throughout Vietnam (fatherland), so I have a lot to compare to. I am also an avid pho connoisseur; some would say, a "phonatic";) growing up eating pho on average 4 times a week for nearly 15yrs (due to my father's limited repertoire, but also b/c I always requested pho for dinner).

The broth was clear, which is important to broth experts, but I really only care about the overall taste. I felt that the broth was one dimensional, and slightly over salted. It resembled the flavour of instant noodle broth, which I enjoy, but not suitable for pho broth; the fragrance of the various spices that is typically found in pho were not coming through. This is the main reason for my 3 star rating. I am a broth man. Secondly, the meat was cut into small sized slices; the smallest I've experienced outside of Vietnam.All of the slices of meat were completely cooked, even as I separated the slices; the slices were not rare slices, as expected. Usually, the slices are much larger in area size and as you separate them, you can see that they are pink, but after submerging them in the hot broth, they quickly cook. The slices at Unphogettable were the colour of fully cooked steak. The noodles were as expected. Some places tend to over cook their noodles, which in my opinion ruins the entire pho experience-a pho-pas, if you will.

I did not finish the broth, which for me is very telling of how much I enjoyed the pho.

I cannot speak to any of their other dishes, as I've only had the pho.
