Pho Wagon offers a solid, casual Vietnamese dining option. I ordered their most popular dish—the chicken pho—which was clean and comforting, but surprisingly mild in flavor. I even added a side of vegetable broth and still found myself reaching for the Sriracha to give it that extra kick.The shrimp spring rolls were a highlight—fresh, light, and paired beautifully with their rich peanut sauce. I also tried the chicken fried rice, which was decent but not particularly memorable.Overall, it’s a reliable spot if you’re in the mood for something light and simple. I’d dine here again, but it wouldn’t be my go-to for pho cravings. - Lindsey Gilbert

What is Worth Choosing

Choosing what to order at Phở Wagon means navigating a menu full of enticing Vietnamese and Southeast Asian specialties. For first-time visitors or those seeking the restaurant’s core offering, the **Pho** is a mandatory selection. While all variations are satisfying, opting for the **rare steak & brisket** combination provides a full spectrum of traditional beef Pho flavor and texture. For those seeking an alternative to beef, the **chicken pho** is consistently a comforting and lighter option, perfect for a straightforward, nourishing meal.

Beyond the soup bowls, the **Appetizers** are a definite highlight. The **fresh spring rolls**—or the fresh grilled pork spring rolls—are repeatedly praised for their lightness and fresh quality, serving as a perfect starter, especially when dipped in the accompanying peanut sauce. For a crunchy, savory start, the **crispy egg roll (2)** is a classic Vietnamese choice.

When aiming for a signature main dish that transcends the typical Pho experience, the **rock n roll filet mignon** from the House Specials is a premium selection that stands out. Although pricier, this dish offers tender, wok-tossed filet mignon cubes that are a decadent treat. For a more conventional but equally flavorful plate, the **lemongrass pork or chicken** served over rice or in a **Vermicelli Bowl** offers that iconic balance of sweet, savory, and zesty notes that Vietnamese grilling is known for. The vermicelli option is particularly refreshing, combining the grilled protein with cool noodles, fresh vegetables, and a light dressing.

Finally, no Vietnamese dining experience is complete without the proper beverage. Be sure to order the **vietnamese iced coffee with condensed milk**, a strong, sweet, and highly caffeinated treat that is a beloved part of the cuisine and a fantastic way to finish your meal.
