Pho1 In Roma

The restaurant has cool sidewalk seating like in Vietnam. The food is okay, but a bit salty for me.

%100 AUTHENTIC Northern Vietnamese Phở. I have been a regular customer here for 3 years now, and never in these 3 years I saw someone non-Vietnamese working here. Not that it matters but seeing someone claiming this is a Chinese place????? If you are used to the mainstream Southern style Phở -which is common in America, you will not get that experience in a NORTHERN place. Duh. There's no shame in admitting ignorance but accusing a small business of inauthenticity when you are the ignorant one is very disgraceful behavior. For those who don't know; Southern style Phở is served with Hoisin sauce, Thai basil, bean sprouts. It's much sweeter. Northern style Phở on the other hand is NOT sweet, it's hearthy, lighter and simpler. It's close to the way Phở first originated in Vietnam, enjoyed with lime and garlic vinegar (there is also Sriracha). You can taste the delicious broth and meat very clearly. The broth is the star, it has so much flavor. To be honest, it took me a few visits to get used to the non-sweetness. Because I was also used to the Southern style Pho, which is also beautiful but different. Actually you don't even have to get used to it, this place has many incredibly delicious meals you can choose from, other than Phở. The shrimp peanut noodle is otherworldly. The summer and spring rolls are always fresh and loaded. We tried every single dish in the menu over this 3 yearsand it does not disappoint. You cannot find this level of quality for noodles and ingredients in most other Asian restaurants in Rome. I felt the need to write this since this place has a special place in my heart with its warm environment, kind and genuine workers and delicious meals. Also the prices are very very affordable and haven't changed since the first time I was here. 10/10 experience.

The pho is delicious, flavorful, and plentiful. The seared beef in my pho was incredibly tender. A quiet, unpretentious place on beautiful Via Merulana. Perfect for chilly autumn evenings, a must-try!

Attentive, smiling and professional staff, delicious dishes that catapult you into Vietnam

Minimalist restaurant with a completely different menu than other Asian restaurants. The soups are unique and delicious. I know many places for Asian soups, but these Pho are unique. Balanced, delicate, and flavorful. I highly recommend it.

Great Vietnamese restaurant. We were hungry and stopped there for a nice hearty bowl of pho.

Review for Ristorante Phở 1 – Via Merulana, 115, Rome The restaurant makes a good overall impression – both in terms of its ambiance and the friendliness of the receptionist. The portions (e.g., rice with chicken and grilled vegetables) were also sufficient, very tasty, and served promptly. I found the summer rolls rather bland, while the spring rolls were okay, although fried a bit too long. However, the large Phở soup with cooked beef I ordered was disappointing. The broth was less rich, the portion of noodles was quite small, and, above all, the meat consisted almost entirely of fat, gristle, and tendons – inedible. Based on my experience with Phở in Vietnam and other restaurants, this was very disappointing. Unfortunately, when I politely offered feedback, the waiter was unsympathetic. Instead of understanding or offering a solution, he simply pointed out that every restaurant prepares dishes differently. However, the problem wasn't the taste, but the quality of the meat. Conclusion: A lovely restaurant with friendly service and good dishes beyond the soup – however, the phở itself was a major disappointment.

Hot and full of rich flavor. Pho was so satisfying

Very quick service and good food. The broth was flavourful and portion size was generous.

Me encantó este restaurante vietnamita. Bastante sencillo, tiene grandes sopas en porciones generosas y es bastante asequible.
