We really like pho noodles and even went to visit Vietnam to have authentic pho noodles a couple of times as well. This place was almost up to what you could expect in Vietnam and definitely best in town and surrounding cities. The owner lady came and explained how she makes "real" pho soup from scratch by boiling the ingredients for 15 hours. She was very proud of her dishes, and she more than deserves it. The soup tasted great, not too salty but not too bland either. The portion was big and the price was cheaper than other pho places. Will surely visit again soon.

Definitely the King of Pho! The dishes are all delicious, the portions massive, and if you're a fan of leftovers, you cannot ask for better options! Try putting your favorite Ramen in the leftover broth! I also really love talking to the owners, Larry and Janice, and you can tell they love what they do! I really enjoyed the merchandise as well. Great use of the name! And the name is hilarious, please don't change it!

Greaaaaaaat Pho! The owner Janice is the kindest owner that puts in a lot of love into her food and her customers. The pho broth itself was incredible. I could eat it plain. Service was fantastic! Definitely recommend to eat here!

Pretty good! I don't have Pho a lot, so I can't compare to other restaurants, but I enjoyed it! We got there around 6p on a Saturday and were seated right away. Food came out quick and service was just fine. I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere.

Questions & Answers

My question is: why did you choose this unfortunate name for the restaurant? Since ‘pho’ is properly pronounced ‘fhu’ the addition of ‘king’ to the name can result in some truly embarrassing conversations, it seems to me....

Yes, I am sure that the proprietors were completely unaware of the pronunciation of their main dish and that the naming was entirely an unfortunate error. That's the joke. Pho King lighten up a bit. Laugh once in a while!

Could you please change your name? It's really offensive.

Is this the Pho King used to be in Provo?

The Owner sold Noodle King (in Provo) and opened Pho King Orem (in Orem) in 2018 and then he sold it to us in 2019. We kept the recipe and improve it to the current taste. We still use over 75lb of cow bones and boil it over 12 hours before we add other ingredients like ginger and onions and boil it for another 4 hours. Then we add other spices like nut meg and cinnamon before we add salt and sugar to finish it.

Staff wears masks, every other table is closed, I feel quite safe dining here.

I love Pho King! Can we look forward to another good Pho King in Utah County?

Pho King is not a franchise, but we are planning to put this Vietnamese noodle into College cafeteria soon. (BYU, UVU, UofU, USU, etc)

Is this place gluten free, or does it have gluten free options? I have a brother who loves pho, but has celiac disease. Some pho places are and some are not celiac safe.

Hi, I'm the son of the owner. We do have gluten free options and have had many people who's had gluten allergies come eat at our restaurant. I don't know the options right off the top of my head but you can give them a call and ask them
