    The broth is the thing with pho. The Chapel St place and Pho Viet are ok'sh but a bit lacking in character.

    Echo that. it's great. reminds me of one on Wardour St London. Could be the start of something great. My standards are set by Sydney/Melbourne expectations.

    I went earlier today and love the place. Between 2 we shared the fresh spring rolls, deep fried spring rolls and the prawns for starters. I had the special pho bo and boyfriend had the prawn curry. All dishes were amazing and the bill came to €29. Very reasonable and the staff were extremely friendly. Dublin city centre is crying out for similar eateries. I predict that Pho Viet will come a regular haunt of mine. Extended review here

    Omg went to this place yesterday :O It was beautiful... I ordered the Special Pho with meatballs and rare steak... I have not tasted Pho this good since I was in Vietnam about 3 years ago... And did anybody else get served by the super cute kinda blondy guy? He was so nice and he said that it was B.Y.O.B for the moment so that is also pretty cool.. I definitely recommend this place for any Pho Lovers in Dublin... Hope this helps :D

    I cannot wait to get here - love that the reviews from boardsies are so good. Quite ill at the moment though so would rather wait until I can really enjoy the food. Maybe in a few weeks :)

    Great to here there are some decent places for pho in Dublin. Lived on Vancouver and it was great there (as was the sushi). Currently in Vietnam enjoying it again so it's good to know I'll get some at home!

    Was there last night and liked it, although have nothing to compare it against. It was quite busy at around 1800. All tables were occupied with new customers sharing so word of it is clearly filtering around.

    I'm so thankful I've just come across this thread! Having just come home from a few years travelling in Australia/Vietnam I find myself craving Pho and other such delicacies! Thanks everyone for the info :)

    Went to Pho Viet last night with friends who had never had Vietnamese before. We were all really impressed, we were the only non Vietnamese people eating in there too which is always a great sign. We booked a table and it did get full after we had got there - about 6.30. It's not that big.

    Three of us had Pho of some type and another had a curry and it was all delicious. The Pho was actually nicer than the one we are used to from NZ because the meat in it was quite lean. The meat we are used to is not nearly as nice and much more chewy and fatty.

    The Vietnamese coffee was also fab. The guy running the place was really nice too - would definitely recommend. :) Thanks for the heads up on the place guys!
