What People Are Saying About Phoclo Cafe

Featured Review

In Short – The foodie denizens of Capitol Hill fill this bright room at lunch and dinner, taking in the life-size street-scene murals covering the walls, complete with tiny lights twinkling like stars. Colorful lanterns hanging from the ceiling and a thatched-roof kitchen enclave enhance the alfresco atmosphere. The menu includes a long list of pho choices and a healthy assortment of rice, noodle and stir-fry dishes paired with grilled meat, shrimp and tofu.

Best Tofu Curry in town~

by iowaknit at Citysearch

Upon visiting Seattle, we were walking along Broadway and came across the Pho Cyclo Cafe and decided to try it out. Excellent atmosphere for warm evenings, as the front side of the building is made up of large sliding doors/windows that can be opened to create an al fresco dining experience.

The food was amazing ~ I had one of their specials, the tofu curry, it it was so good that we went back twice more that week because I couldn't get enough of it! Excellent. However, would not recommend the Vegetarian Pho - apparently some things just can't be recreated well without meat. =(

But all of the rice and noodle dishes we tried were excellent, and the prices were amazing to boot. Dinner for under $20 for two of us - amazing all around.

Go try it out! But beware - you might become their most loyal customer. The food does that to you!

  • Pros: The food, the building, the location. All excellent. Especially the food.
  • Cons: Sometimes wait staff took a while to come around and refill water. But not a big deal.

Great food, bad service

by theLaLuks at Citysearch

By far the best pho on broadway, and maybe, the city. Wait-staff is very inattentive, but usually fast in bringing the food out. Might get 5 stars if it was always constantly great, though sometimes the veggies are close to wilted. I'd have to take away more stars for the music they used to play, it's really bad and really loud, but they seem to have toned it down lately...

Hair on the food and worst customer service!!

by capri13 at Citysearch

Right away we got there we see a lot of opening seats and they told us if we can wait 10 mins.

When I got my food I saw that there was hair on my food! I ask for a manager and she took the plate and said she will get a new plate for me. That time I already lost my appetite!! I got my new plate and very carefully eating my food and when I took a spoonfull of rice there's another HAIR on my food!!! Their customer service were not doing so well, we have to get their attention to get a glass of water or napkins etc. Me and my family likes to go to Pho Hoa restaurants and unfortunately this experience that I had in that restaurant turned me off to go any other Pho Hoa restaurants.
