Pho Minh Ky

Great soup and vermicelli, fast, cheap. The people there are nice.

The food is good. Their phở is a little on the stingy side, and the meat balls cost an arm and a leg. The owner is very selective on her customer service. She knows who to kiss up to, and knows who to treat poorly. The customer service is horrible, and I believe that hey are surviving due to their location. They are very centralized and it makes lunch easy. But if you are in for a quick meal, please don’t hesitate to eat here. It will fill you.
HINT
*Order the small, because there’s just as much food portion as there are in the large.

It was like I was in Vietnam. Very clean. Full of Asian families and white people looking for «authentic food. Phở is the size of my ass which is big..
Pretty sure the «balls of beef» were testicles but I didn’t tell my husband.

I love phở, I come here all the time.
One thing the owner isn’t too friendly and I never appreciate how a owner treats employees bad. especially in front of customers. cm’on!
The egg rolls saves them! lol

My better half — who is Vietnamese — has proclaimed this place «quite good.» So there.

I found this spot while I was roaming through the city. 2^nd time here and I have to say the food and service is very good. Try the beef phở and shrimp rolls. It hits spot

Authentic Vietnamese cooking works for me! Fresh spring rolls dipped in peanut sauce and a big bowl of Grilled Beef Bun. Delicious! We also tried the Phở Ga (chicken noodle soup). Huge portions! We topped it all off with some ice cold Vietnamese Espresso!
Great service and very reasonable prices.

Most recent visit: CAN I JUST SAY HOW RUDE THE WOMEN HERE ARE, THEY PROBABLY TOOK THE SRIRACHA AND HOISIN SAUCE FROM OUR TABLE TO BRING TO OTHER TABLES ABOUT 5 TIME. LIKE STOP REACHING OVER MY PLATE, TAKING THE SAUCE I’M STILL USING ANS BRINGING IT TO SOME ONE ELSE’S TABLE. VERY IGNORANT
Seated right away, although I couldn’t sit where I wanted.
Tea was offered right away. Very clean place, fast service.
For an appetizer we got the shrimp toast, it was very good, only came with two little pieces tho, most places come with the 4 slices as they are very small.
PHO with brisket and beef is what I ordered, ordered an xlarge. Portion was big, although I became very disgusted with my noodles as every piece of meat I got was fat trimmings. (I guess I got the shitty bowl of the day).my fiancée had phở too and all his meat was good, so I was pretty disappointed. Broth was good, wish there was some more cilantro but that’s just me.
My other complaint would be that I had little pieces of tripe in the entire bowl of noodles and I did not order a bowl of noodle with tripe. So I was continuously picking pieces out.
Coconut pearl drink we ordered costs $ 5!!! The maximum anywhere is 350. I was shocked at that price, it was good tho.

The Phở is solid. Big portions of real good Phở. Good broth, good noodles. Generous (heaps!!) of fresh bean sprouts, basil and lime.
The fresh spring rolls are authentically Vietnamese. Absolutely yummy.
The chicken salad was great. Chicken meat is usually problematic for my picky taste buds unless it’s organic. This one actually passed the test.
The only reason why I am not giving it 5-​star is because the fresh coconut water we ordered did not come in its original coconut shell but was poured out in a cup. And, I suspected that sugar might have been added as it was far too sweet.

I have been to several phở places in Greater Boston area and the best one so far. Two piece spring rolls are bit pricey. Service is great. I go there at least twice a week for lunch.

This is the best beef phở I’ve ever had. The soup is full of awesome flavor, and lots of onion and green onions. I just addicted to it and have to have it like every weekend. Truly recommend it!

Whenever I’m feeling phở, I come here. The portions they give you is overwhelming for the price and the taste is very yummy! Much more generous than in Chinatown in Boston.
Like most vietnamese restaurants, the sauces, dishes, and utensils are already available on the table so it’s very convenient to your needs. The only thing I ever get is phở so I’m pretty much reviewing this merely on the soup.
The only thing I could complain is that sometimes when I come in, they just point to a table that’s empty and that’s not very welcoming as a guest?
Overall it’s great because this place is only 10 minutes away and it helps my phở and boba cravings.

I was in desperate need of Vietnamese food and was overwhelmingly steered here by reviews. Upon walking in, my heart swelled with hope as it had all of the trappings of a great Vietnamese spot: Sriacha and spice rounders on the tables, strange, gold embossed paintings of elelphants and the Vietnamese country side, actual South Eastern Asian people eating. I was stoked– especially because it was actually pretty nice and clean inside, which is a rarity in the shit strewn wasteland that is Downtown Lynn.
Unfortunately, hope ended with the food. Summer rolls (nime chow) were soggy and bland, cha gio (spring rolls) had to much wrapper and not enough filling, the vermicelli in the Bun Bit was just meh… I mean, it all tasted okay, just not the swampy trek 8 clicks south through the Ho Chi Minh river delta to Saigon Flavor City.
Wasnt «bad” — just massively disappointing– and a little more expensive than it should have been.

Wow have try this place on tueday. They really have some good food like in chinatown. Their spring rolls are fresh and the phở was good. Making me think of going there more often than hitting downtown. The only problem that I have is finding parking it street parking

Delicious food, excellent price, helpful staff and almost no wait. What more can I say?

This is one of my favorite restaurant to eat phở! The waiters are wonderful and the food comes very fast. They always remember me and my sisters. Try the spring rolls as well! They have an amazing peanut sauce which goes well with the rolls. Also, the ice Vietnamese coffee with condense milk is very delicious.

Had take out. The fresh rolls were ok. They were lacking the minty and veggie crunch. The phở was delicious, but I asked the server for hoisin and hot sauce and got none. The inside of the restaurant was very clean, and the food came out very fast. I would definitely like to stop in and try a sit down meal there.

this place is very pretty inside after their remodeling! nice and bright in there and clean.
I usually order the combo Phở there which is good, but my opinion not as great as ones in Chinatown. Their beef I think is a little over cooked and sometimes i like the rounded steak medium on top.
one thing I do not like is their thin skimpy EGG ROLLS. for the price its not worth it, you can barely taste anything. I would have to literally soak it in the fish sauce or dip it in the hot sauce.
there are multiple waitress but everytime I go I ALWAYS have to get up to ask for an extra drink AND to PAY for my bill.

Showed up just a little after 12 on a weekday with a friend and we were seated immediately.
We shared the beef fried rice, and since neither of us are Vietnamese food connoisseurs (I usually get phở, but it was a hot day!), we asked for a recommendation from the waitress. She recommended a dish with vermicelli noodles, and there was either beef or pork, I can’t remember, and there was a clear dipping sauce that came separately from the dish. I don’t remember the name of it, but it was delicious!
The service was prompt and polite.
Would return :).

There are a lot of Asian restaurants in Lynn and this one ranks among my favorites.
There is a dish here that I keep coming back for and just writing this review is making my mouth water just thinking about it. That’s their «Short Rib Cau» which is MOUTHWATERING! I’ve ordered it maybe every single time I’ve visited there and that’s really the one main reason I go there because it’s out of the way compared to the other Asian restaurants i mentioned earlier.
There are a few gripes about this restaurant though that I have to address.
1. Their egg rolls are atrocious. For what you pay for. you get a disgustingly small portion of pre-​frozen egg rolls. I actually thought it was a joke when they brought them out! The lettuce that lay underneath it was more filling than the egg rolls themselves!
2. The shakes are not fresh but powdered. I cannot tell you how much of a difference that makes in taste but it’s a lot.
3. The service is hit and miss. 50 percent of the time I’m there, they give me adequate service and the other half, it’s sub par. Is it too much to ask for consistent service?
For main staples like Phở. this isn’t a bad place to eat. Their main attraction is definitely their Short Rib Cau. But besides that, this place is just average.
