The interior is cozy and there’s also an aquarium with extravagant fish. Thank you!

    Pho Golden is a small vietnamese restaurant located in the city of Niagra Falls, New York. The atmosphere was small but functional and actually had some character to it compared to other pho places we've been going to along our journeys. The service was friendly and quick and we got in before the rush so it didn't take too long to get our food. The food was flavorful and the pho was really authentic. Good sizes for the price. We would definitely recommend this place for someone looking for a reputable pho place with quick service in Niagra Falls. My wife and I usually got the spring rolls at Vietnamese places but we have been seeing Bhan Mi's as appetizers recently and we just had to change it up. The price for the sandwich was the same as the rolls at just $5 which was a good deal. It has pickled cucumber and carrots with cilantro and cooked pork on a french baguette with sauce. I wish it had a bit more sauce but overall it was a good sandwich. We both had pho and i had the extra large size with all the variety of meats that they had. My bowl had flank steak, sliced brisket, tripe, tendon and meatballs. The broth was flavorful and the bowl was pretty big. They only offer one smaller size for the rest of their dishes, which is what my wife had and the one I should have got because it still was a good size for $9. The only gripe I have about my bowl is that the tendon inside was big and lumpy and not the thin sliced, tender pieces that most places usually serve. It was chewy and I couldn't even eat it. This place definitely checks off most of our requirements for a good pho place and I like it, but with my meat being inedible and there being soup splatter all over the walls next to where we were sitting makes it just slightly less than a 5 star place. (seems to be a problem with soup places but come on, just wipe the damn walls while you're wiping everything else down.) Food - 4.5 ⭐ Service - 5 ⭐ Atmosphere - 4 ⭐ Overall - 4 ⭐ Follow me for more reviews across America πŸ˜ŽπŸ”πŸ•πŸ¨πŸ¦πŸ¦–πŸ”§ Like this review if you found it helpful πŸ‘

    This was our first time at Pho Golden. My stepdaughter has celiac disease so we were looking for a good place to have a gluten free meal. Upon entering we were greeted and seated immediately. We had the shrimp spring rolls, one of the fried rice dishes, a bowl of pho and a spicy chicken pad Thai. Absolutely everything was incredibly delicious! The serving sizes are more than worth the price, I brought home over half of my pad Thai. I highly recommend!

    This is a small and quaint Vietnamese Restaurant close by Niagara Falls. I love coming here after a hike at Whirlpool State Park and the food is always fresh and delicious. The service is great and the prices are very reasonable. Come check them out if you are visiting the falls.

    I was in the mood for Vietnamese food before going up to Old Fort Niagara. I found this place off Yelp with good reviews. The parking lot is out back but it’s limited. There is also street parking. Service was good. We ordered mini pancakes (banh khot) and extra large seafood pho. Food was delish. Good size portions. Prices were fair not pricey. Broth in pho was robust and flavorful. Seafood was fresh.

    This is a gem of a restaurant, hidden in downtown Niagara Falls NY. I've had a lot of different dishes here, and they're all delicious and look upscale and they're very healthy! My husband loves the pho ga best, it's like a soul warming chicken noodle soup. All the servers have been very friendly and they love children, so it's a very family friendly place to go. We love it!

    I was visiting Niagara Falls and I was in the mood for some Vietnamese food, I was very hungry so I google and found out this restaurant was nearby so I decided to give it a try. I ordered Bun Bo Hue, when the worker brings out the food, I was thinking of it looks good and after tasting the broth, it was too salty for my taste , it did not taste like Bun Bo Hue at all, and they didn’t give out a lot of noodles. On the bright side , the employees were nice.

    Nice clean restaurant on Pine St. Food was very tasty and large portions. We had Beef Pho, Pad Thai and an order of Pork Spring Rolls. Pho was hot and tasty with the usual trimmings. The Pad Thai vas a very generous portion but the chicken was dry. Spring Rolls were hot and tasty. Staff were very friendly and attentive. More like a 4.4 out of 5.

    Got the 82, soft egg noodle stir fry with beef and shrimp. I also customized it by adding a fried sunny side up egg on top. So delicious. It came out amazing!!

    You must eat here! We visited Niagara Falls during the winter, and ate a hot bowl of Pho with hot tea, spring rolls, and pork dumplings that warmed us right up! The staff was very sweet. We didn't have to wait long. We couldn't park out front so we parked in the public parking down the street and walked. What a wonderful and positive experience and a highlight of our trip!

    I've eaten here at least 4 or 5 times in the last 2 months since I first tried it with my girlfriend. The food is always good and always fresh, they have great prices throughout the entire menu, and nice employees that are very attentive. I definitely recommend coming here if you're in the downtown Niagara Falls area.

    We ordered pho and it was unfortunately quite bland and it contained little meat. We also had banh mi and the pork was too rubbery. The egg rolls were good though. The service was friendly but a bit slow.

    Cashier was very accommodating answered all my questions, checked in with me on my food and was extremely courteous and atmosphere casual and steady stream for lunch crowd of mixed locals. Located on busier "Pine Street" street parking only, this charming had limited dine in tables, one server, but my spicy chicken pad Thai and Vietnamese coffee to go were reasonable and delicious. would come back again! Does offer take out and local delivery.

    We were in Niagara and though to try amazing Vietnamese food. The food was so fresh and tasty. We just loved soup noodles, Ginger chicken and stir fry vegetables. I will definitely visit again whenever next time I'm in Niagara.

    Been here a few times. Nice to see some diversity in the heart of Little Italy. The food is excellent and they give large portions. Everything is well made. Be careful of putting the jalapenos in the soup. They'll bring the heat & cause you to sweat. Very comforting food.

  • 5/5 Leehe M. 9 months ago on Google
    Got the steak pho, pork banh mi, and Thai tea. The broth was full of flavor making a perfect bowl of pho. The banh mi was also super good, the prices are very reasonable, and the service was great (:

    This place is amazing! I know the falls area is known for Italian food but this restaurant is so good! You got to try it. From the bubble teas to the pho everything was deliciously made. Highly recommend!! The owners are very sweet and kind. So happy we stopped.

  • 5/5 Daniel K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food! Customer service was fantastic, the portions were perfect and priced well for what you're getting. I was introduced to this place by a friend, and I'm very glad he did. I'll be coming back to try more of the menu (and would recommend anyone else to try this place as well).

    It has been excellent every time we've gone there. I have tried chicken pad Thai and vegan pad Thai. I like them both however I did like the chicken pad Thai better. But I love tofu. And there's was good. My honey bun had gotten what was recommended to him which is the pork and a clay pot. Served with Jasmine rice. I forget what it's called but it was phenomenal. The flavor was explosive. Everything we have had has been excellent. They have the best pad Thai of anywhere that I have eaten pad Thai. And honestly that's only been one place in Fayetteville Arkansas, one place in Eureka Springs Arkansas, and this place. And I have eaten pad Thai at these places several times except for the one in Eureka. It wasn't all that great to me however this one here takes the cake of every single time I've ever eaten pad Thai. This is one of my favorite places in this town. The people are wonderful who work there. They are always extremely nice and take care of us and everyone else very well. They are closed on Thursdays. But you can get your grub on every other day of the week baby.

    My go to here is #32, the broth is amazing. I order it when I’m sick or sad and need some good comfort food. The flavor is incredible and eating it always makes me feel way better. The staff are so sweet and accommodating. I love this place, their food makes my soul feel healed. Highly recommend. To everyone.

    Looking for something quick and light to eat. Saw the reviews and decided to check out this place. Ordered the pho and lemonade. I would not recommend this place. Server was friendly but the pho, not good! It tasted like salt water no flavor. Maybe the pot ran out of broth, they added more water and only flavored it with salt. I had to add other ingredients to make it edible. Very disappointed especially when the reviews were rated high. Giving it a 2 because service was pretty good.

  • 5/5 Liang-Kai C. 1 year ago on Google
    Soup is really fresh and tasty. Rarely beef doesn't like what I had in Asia though.

  • 5/5 Kris K. 2 years ago on Google
    Been coming here for years, easily the -best- Vietnamese place in both the Falls and Buffalo. Staff is always welcoming and prompt, the food has never not been excellent. This is mine and my husbands go to spot, and will be for a long time to come.

    First time trying Vietnamese food and certainly not the last! The food was so pho-nomenal I just had to write a review. Cheap, too! 🀀
