Pho Thanh

Great bubble. Love all the different flavors. Of you haven’t already had one your missing out. Try the taro to start with… and your gonna want one all the time.

Total crap. The fresh rolls and the peanuts sauce was so stale. The flat noodles was disgusting. Left everything at the table and walked off after having a single bite. Had ordered a fried rice but cancelled it.
The problem is they have no competition in this deserted town. So even if they serve puke people eat it. Feel bad for folks who live in this town.
Just eat some bread at home and don’t abuse your body.

Excellent phở. I was so relieved to find this place after moving here because I couldn’t survive without weekly phở! Haven’t tried anything else in the menu because I love their phở too much.

The best Phở I have ever had is oddly enough here in NW Arkansas It is Phở Trahn, I have had it in NY and L.A. Everybody on earth should eat here.

This is the best Phở place I have been to in NWA. Very good Phở, and very good Bahn Mi! The prices are incredibly cheap too! Go here.

While visitng Univ of A, we stayed 2 nights in Bentonville this past weekend.
I could eat phở every day, but that’s just me, and not the rest of my family. They will tolerate maybe once a month at most. Anyway, since no one can make up their mind for dinner last Saturday night, I decided to check out this place. I almost went to the newer one that’s only a block away, but that place had no cars, so decided to come to Phở Thanh.
The building is classfied as a hole in the wall. Sort of the old taco bell, like 30 years ago?
Anyway, it looks like a family run restaurant as they were yelling back and forth to the kitchen. We were seated quicky. Between the 5 of us, we had ordered a combination bahn mi, large combo phở, rare beef phở, kids beef phở, grilled pork over rice and some chicken noodle dish for my daughter.
Food came about 10min later. At first, the bowl for large phở looked very large, but the actual content was about normal size. The soup was decent, and the meat were good. I normally don’t care for meat balls, and these were no different. One thing I had to do is to really separate the noodles as they were in a large clump. I also had the bahn mi, which was OK. The veges wasn’t as crisp as I had hoped for, so it tasted more like a regular sub.
For my wife, she had the grilled pork, which was very flavorful, if not a bit salty. My daughter’s stir fried chicken noodle was fine.
Overall, I thought the place was OK.

Great food! The meals are HUGE, so bring big appetite, be prepared to share or take home leftovers! Its in an old fast food taco building, the décor doesn’t do the food justice, but it keeps the prices low and the place is always packed! They have a drive through for phone in or window ordering, which is handy for an alternative to fast food. My friends love their sandwiches and bubble tea, I have tried the Phở Tai and the Bun Thit Nuong and they were both amazing.

Excellent food the broth for the Phở is delicious. The children’s size is still ginormous to eat. Staff was friendly good service

As I’m writing this review, I literally just put down my chopsticks because I just finished eating. This place is the bomb dot com.
My husband and I are in NWA for my cousin’s funeral, which is very unfortunate, but he loved this restaurant so we decided to check it out. My cousin loved the P1 large so I ordered it and ate it like he did, plain and simple with no seasoning sauces.
Needless to say, the broth was very rich and amazing. I loved how hot the broth is and you really don’t need to add anything else to it. For approximately $ 7, the P1 large is very worth it and if we had a restaurant like this in Georgia, I’d be a regular!

Some of the best phở I’ve ever had and I’ve tried all kinds from my mom’s version to the phở in Saigon (Phở 2000 restaurant along with multiple street vendors). Also way better than the only phở place in Vegas which if anyone from Phở Thanh is reading this needs to open a location there so they can make that mooooney!!!

Absolutely delicious food. Fiancé had the tofu phở and I had the beef brisket phở both delicious. Service was fast and friendly and food was fresh and top notch. Definitely choose here when looking for good Vietnamese food.

I love this place! I could eat here entire week straight. Phở, rice noodles, sandwiches, rice dishes and boba — just to name a few assortments they offer.
Another vietnamese opened next to them. I tried that new place a few times; but now I am back here. There is no competition at all. Phở is definitely better here. The beef cooked with onions also tastes better here.
The wait staff at times are understaffed with only one server. But the server still manages to get my order and help others. If this is diner dash game, she’s level expert.
I had crispy chicken before I was undercooked as it had blood when I cut it. i got a refund and my replacement meal was on the house.
Parking can be difficult during lunch breaks so I suggest getting there before 12:10.

If you’re coming here into Northwest Arkansas and are looking to eat some legitimate Asian food, then you’ve come to the wrong place. There are minimal choices if you want an authentic taste. Luckily, Phở Thanh is one of those few places in which you can get a good meal for a great price.
Located right near the Walmart corporate office is where you’ll find this place. Walk inside, and it actually looks reminiscent of any other phở restaurant in the country. I swear even the numbering systems on their menu looks similar.
For those that are hungry, opt for the large size, and even get a side of spring rolls. Together, your meal is still under $ 15. Taste-​wise, it’s okay, but when you factor in its location (Arkansas), then it is propelled to pretty good. The broth has enough flavor, and the noodles are nice and chewy. Along with your noodles are the standard toppings and meats that you’ll find.
All in all, this place is the best phở that I’ve had in Arkansas. It also probably doesn’t help that it’s also the only phở restaurant that I’ve been to in Arkansas. Nonetheless, they accept credit cards (even Amex), and have a large enough parking lot to accommodate all.

Good vietnamese, but ever since they god competition they have been a little sloppy, getting orders messed up. My wife still think the phở is better here, so if you are a phở lover give it a shot. Try both places and order something other than phở.
Recommend: grilled pork sandwich, combination vermicelli

Tasty phở. Even better bahn mi sandwiches. However, sometimes the sandwiches are made inconsistently. At times I come in, it is filled with meat when I get the BBQ pork ones and at other times, it is mostly bread.
Inexpensive and quick service. Fresh ingredients and made to order. I come here for both lunch and dinner a lot, all with consistent staff service. I also like the bubble tea (taro flavored is my fav).
This place is good, but may have competition as a new Vietnamese restaurant just opened up down the street (Miss Saigon Phở)! Can’t go wrong with both though!

Most recent trip had very friendly service and they had even added some white board specials. One was a sweet and sour soup with catfish like that I used to have in Houston. Light and tasty. I like this place.

I have become a regular here due to the fantastic phở soups!
I suggest the p4, it is my favorite.
The staff is great and cares about keeping you happy. If you feel the meat is too fatty as some have posted, tell your server! She will gladly bring you an extra plate of less fatty meat.
As I have stated, I always get my Phở soup with extra noodles for an extra $ 1.
Tell your friends, you won’t be disappointed!

LOVE this place. Just love it. I was first introduced to Phở by a friend that was visiting from China, and from that first visit I was hooked (verified by my «Duchess» title that Unilocal has honored me with, which I am more than happy to accept!).
Now to tell you about the star of the show: the FOOD. I always get the P4, it’s a soup dish with beef-​type broth, noodles, two kinds of meat, and various forms of onion, lemongrass, and cilantro. I also get the extra noodles in the dish because it makes it even more awesome. This soup is just heavenly. I should seriously just start having my paychecks direct deposited into their bank account because I go there so often.
I have also tried the Banh-​Mi sandwiches, which are superb and very refreshing, 1 & 3 are the way to go.
I need to branch out to more items on their menu, but I love the noodle soup so much that it’s hard to leave that! But I’m sure their other dishes are great as well.
This place is authentic and amazing. If a visiting friend from China (who knows the ins-​and-​outs of Asian cuisine), loves this place, so will you.

This Phở is 5 Star for NW Arkansas and 4 Star in areas of the country with a heavy Vietnamese population. Good Phở — I enjoy the broth and vegetables.
Spring rolls were stuffed and very tasty. Took me a time or two to get used to the sticky rice paper :-)
If I’m ready to get my grub on — I grab the Bahn Mi sandwich and no supper is needed that night. The bread is amazing — wish I could just buy that
Worth a try — I had never eaten Vietnamese food prior to eating here.

I have to be honest. The phở and the bánh mì were actually pretty good.
I have been to much better places for phở in Colorado and especially Washington State — loads of excellent phở restaurants all over Seattle and Tacoma.
The broth was uninspired, but not bad. Especially good for Northwest Arkansas, I would imagine.
This would easily have been a four star review, thinking about a five star review because of the area. But, that all went down the drain when a cockroach crawled across my table and I had to kill it myself with a napkin right when I finished my lunch.
Huge crowd at lunch. I could have done without the cockroach though.
