This was one of the best pho i have had in the area!!! I suggest trying the chicken pho.  The staff rocks and and very fast and friendly.  
This place is packed during lunch.  Try their shrimp tempura as an appetizer.  i don't know whats in the dipping sauce but it is the best.

I couldn't tell if it was the weather,,,,?
In the rainy, chilly, afternoon, way passed the lunch time we went in with our empty tummies.
It's our first pho together, me and someone special.

Can this be an illusion,,,,,,? Is the situation too perfect,,,!?
I don't know,,,, But the pho is pretty fckn good!

When was the last time I truly finished my small pho?
I can't remember,,,,and today, I did.

So yes, I'll be coming back.

Their pho was pretty good. I liked the fat that they make the beef broth oil fat or whatever an option on the side.
It was overall good, but loses one star because it wasn't great.

I agree with what Robert S. had to say about this place. The menus were cute enough AND the waitress spoke English, I thought this would be my designated place to eat pho; however, when the soups actually came out, I was not impressed. I had A. I love pho with beef, rare beef, tendon, meatballs, and tripe--I know I'm not fond of tendon or meatballs, so I got rid of those two things. I have no complaints about the beef, it was nicely cooked. It was simply the broth that was lacking in flavor, I had to dump hoisin sauce and drench the meat in rooster chili sauce to be able to feel as if I'm not drinking water and noodles.

Considering the broth is about 40 percent of pho, when it's lacking in flavor, it's just no good at all. I wouldn't visit this place again, considering there are more Vietnamese places closer to my area that aren't cramped and make sub-par pho.

I've always been partial to the sweet ribs really, but the pho is definitely good and one of the few convenient option in the immediate bellevue area.  That said, if you've ever wondered why their broth is so good..... apparently they prepare that ONE full day in advance to let the flavors soak in and blend really well (hehe they let me back in their kitchen once).  Definitely tasty stuff... so swing on by when you need your weekly pho fix.... cause as they say ... its good pho you.

For Eastsiders, the Mercer Island and Factoria locations make getting decent Pho a little easier.  Huge bowls of noodles, broth, and fresh ingredients are perfect on a gray day.  Check out the sizeable chicken salad if you don't love pho.  Exceptional for the price.

The Pho here is simple, fast and delicious. This is a great place for a quick but satisfying lunch when you're in a hurry. Check it out!

ok ok ok!! I love I love pho in factoria.. that I give 4 stars.. still not 5.. it doesn't compare to the others pho establishments in seattle that are more authentic...... anyways... I have never had such horrible service in my life......... and my pho was given to me with a really heavy  hand, and with no fixin's.... also when I asked about an appetizer I was wanting to try... she just told me and walked about.. gosh what a snob.... and when other people came in, she smiled and was really friendly.. really?? you can't even be nice to your people? never going to the one on the island anymore...
