Phở Minh's - Vietnamese restaurant in Linden - 430 N Wood Ave, USA

Service was kind of bad, but great foods at affordable prices. Pho broth hit the spot! Thick enough but not too greasy. Spring rolls are well wrapped filled with shrimps, vegetables, and vermicelli noodles. Service wise, it took more than 10 mins to be seated in spite of few dining in people. The server wasn't really kind. Also, I had to go to the casher to check out.

UPDATED - 1/10/2024 Located off a busy Wood Avenue in Linden, my colleague and I enjoyed every meal at this family-run establishment. Today, some of us decided to order takeout from Phở Minh via their website for delivery. Their extensive menu featured a wide range of Vietnamese options, including vermicelli, noodle soups, vegetarian dishes, and more, all prepared with the freshest ingredients. We decided to order Gỏi Cuốn Chay (Tofu Summer rolls with lettuce and rice vermicelli) accompanied by peanut sauce, Pho Tom (Shrimp Pho Soup), and Bánh Mì Gà Nướng (Vietnamese Grilled Chicken Sandwich). The summer roll was good, and their peanut sauce had the perfect texture and flavor. The pho’s broth and noodle texture were delicious and went so well in cold weather. As a first-timer, the banh mi sandwich, although simple-looking, was also delicious and both tender and juicy with the pickled veggies. The bread had a nice crunch on the outside. To my surprise, it also contained slices of jalapeño, which weren’t listed, and I took those off. Food arrived at the desired time for noon if one lives or works near them. Prices were reasonable, and portion sizes were relatively good. We were satisfied with the outcome of the delivery and will continue to recommend this place. ———————— If you are in the mood for phở, live or work nearby and don't feel like driving far, look no further but this small Vietnamese 🇹🇭 casual gem in Linden located on Wood Avenue. One of my colleague and I came during lunch and for while had the whole place to ourselves. As a starter, we began with the summer roll (Gỏi cuốn) consisting shrimp with lettuce & rice vermicelli wrapped in rice paper served cold and accompanied by their delicious peanut sauce which was creamy, sweet, and nutty. For the main dish, we both ordered phở - Pho Tai Gan (Eye-Round Steak & Tendon Beef) and Pho Tai (Half done beef filet). Their pho arrived hot and was decent wouldnt say it was the best I have ever had but definitely not the worst on this first day of winter. The food is always fresh, portions were just right and the service okay. They deserve your money as much as you deserve their fantastic eats which we can recommend.

(Apologies in advance...) Normally, I don't like to leave a negative review, but if I/We don't let these restaurants know, then they won't improve. So here's what I will say about my experience: Customer service: Called in my order and came to pick it up. No personality over the phone or in person. While on the phone, I had to figure out if she was talking to me or the other 3 people in the background. Atmosphere: Only 2 customers sitting in the restaurant on a Saturday around 2 p.m., which should have explained why they were so empty during lunch hour. And after getting my food, I understand why now..... Food: Ridiculously overpriced and just plain "Ole" terrible! The damage soup had pineapples in it (YUCK)!!!! And it was some type of oxtail recipe that I will never in my order again! ☆-Overall, just one star from me for them! And honestly, I can't even tell you why I'm even going give them that. Needless to say, I will not be visiting them again. They need a lot of work! A new cook!!! Better recipes!!! And as far as good customer service standards, they definitely need quite a bit of help in that area. I'd hate to see that chef go there, the guy that fixes restaurants up and helps them improve. Well, no! I'd actually love to see him go there. They need it!!! Badly!!!

First time here. Bubble tea was addictive. Food came out quick. Salads were cleaned and fresh. Taste was 8 out of 10. Didnt have the desert i wanted. Price was good Not expensive. Clean establishment. They Did have high chairs. Very quiet. Very friendly. Waited a little long for check. I had to go to register to pay. Other then that. We were happy.

I been here a couple times but this is my first review. I order my food over the phone and arrived to find street parking available. There is only street, meter parking available. When I walked in I was greeted and my food was ready. This place is a bit pricey and I paid almost $14 for the food. I paid and the lady that served me was nice. When I got home I dug in and it was good. I added a little of their chilli sauce for some kick. A good experience.

We both had the iced coffee and the coffee flavor was pretty weak. Definitely not what I'm used to. Summer rolls were good though. Spring rolls were decent. Service was not fast nor pleasant. Atmosphere was ok. Would not visit again.

if i could rate it 0 stars i would. i came here as someone referred it to me and i was so excited to try a new pho restaurant and make it my new go to but never again. the whole time the lady up front costumer service was HORRIBLE. i felt like i should’ve just left literally lol that’s how she was making me feel, like i was interrupting/bothering her. it was just horrible to the point eating the food isn’t even worth it to me. and going forward i will share my experience with anyone who thinks of going here.

This is one of my favorite pho spots in the area! It's great bang for your buck, and the pho is delicious and well seasoned. We also tried the Vietnamese tartare, and it was also tangy, delicious, and herbaceous. Their spring rolls are well fried and have a flavorful, porky filling. I will have to keep coming back to try their cold rice noodle dishes and bbq over rice dishes!
