Pho Japolo

The pho ok, not the best around. Reason for the 2 stars 1. They do not use sustainable packaging, take out was in a plastic bag when plastic bags are banned in Richmond. 2. I was given one very small napkin for the order 3. The gentleman at the front came across rude and didn't want bothered. Not a place I would make an effort to go back to.

Came in with small order, looking wet from working outside; lady served me soup and tea for free while I waited —it was nice! Service: 5/5

Pretty typical pho place. Portion and price is pretty standard too. Service is good. Very polite, and the place is very spacious and not too many people so the whole experience is very nice and relaxing. The sub is crunchy and meat is very tender. Highly recommend.

I was pleasantly surprised by this spot in Richmond! Friendly service, definitely bigger than it looks from the outside and located in an unassuming strip between a computer store and another small restaurant/cafe. I appreciated the portion size, tasty and freshly grilled. They also had subs but I was way too full to try them. I am sure I will be back to try other things on the menu.

Food and price were average. Waiter was very not friendly. Did the strict minimum - little to no interaction with us.

Quaint mom and pop place, family friendly. Decent pho and bowls. Reasonably clean atmosphere, friendly staff, prices are a touch higher, but still reasonable

Nice soup base for pho noodles and Cambodian style noodles was tasty! Also enjoyed their spring roll in a salad roll. Quick service.

Taste is fine, but 18$after tip is way over priced for this content

Pretty decent Pho place considering the area is pretty limited in restaurants. As usual the first thing I do when trying a new Pho restaurant is try their form of Pho Dat Biet. Needless to say, this place was pretty decent, although I wasn't too 'gun hoo' with their pricing on their Large Pho Dat Biet at $11. Overall, a pretty decent place with their sit anywhere philosophy and food. I'll probably be back to visit when I find myself in this area again. Update October, 22, 2016: So I've come back multiple times to try out their other dishes, mainly the Roll Combo $7.95 and the Grilled Chicken and Shrimp rice dish. Neither of them blew me away, the peanut sauce for the rolls was kinda watery and the rice dish that had the shrimp tasted burnt maybe cause they grilled the shrimp plain without flavor, the soup that also comes with the rice looses points for not having a piece of bone with meat on it. Overall, I'd come back only to kill the time since its near my workplace, but I'm not too crazy about the pricing or the flavor of the food.

Nice foodFood: 4/5
