Pho Bang New York is hands down the best spot for authentic Vietnamese pho in Chinatown. As a loyal customer for the past three years, I can confidently say that their quality never wavers—every visit delivers the same delicious, consistent flavors that keep me coming back.
One thing to note is that it's a cash-only establishment, but they do have an ATM inside for convenience (just be aware of the small service fee). Despite this minor inconvenience, the fantastic food and reliable experience make it well worth it.
If you're looking for a no-frills, dependable pho spot in Chinatown, Pho Bang New York is the place to go!

We were seated right away. Our menus were tattered and food stained. Tea arrived , smelled like chlorine. Our server took our order, and our meal arrived shortly after. So far no friendly service. No smile, not to us or any other customers. We asked for take away containers and were looked at as if we asked for their secret recipe. Time to pay, cash only. Clearly written on the small receipt tray TIPS. We didn’t tip. The cashier mentioned this to the server who placed the TIP tray on the table and said “service charge not included” and pushed the tray in front of us. Clarification, we are 20% gratuity when we dine out and receive the service expected, the basics. Smiles, courtesy, appreciation for choosing their restaurant. This place seems to have a reputation for quality food. Which draws a crowd. This has resulted in them developing a system of turning over tables as quickly as possible. They have forgotten about quality, service and what deserves gratitude.

Cash only
Soup was not as flavorful as expected. Lots of ingredients
Spring rolls were good, sauce was lighter than expected but good
Would recommend just make sure you have enough cash

Fresh and flavourful. Beef was delicious i the other soups we had. Imperial rolls were very good.
