The Pho Nguyen Experience: A Fusion of Flavor and Comfort
At Pho Nguyen, every dish is crafted with care and attention to detail. The restaurant offers a diverse menu with something for everyone, including mouth-watering Starters, flavorful Rice Plates, and refreshing Beverages. Let’s take a closer look at what makes Pho Nguyen stand out.
Starters to Kick Off Your Meal
Start your dining experience with one of Pho Nguyen's carefully prepared starters, which are perfect for whetting your appetite. Two of the standout options are the Grilled Chicken Sandwich and the Cold Cut Sandwich. These sandwiches are not only packed with bold flavors but also provide a satisfying mix of textures that will have you savoring every bite. The grilled chicken is tender and juicy, while the cold cuts are expertly seasoned, making these sandwiches a great way to begin your meal.
Rice Plates: A Hearty and Flavorful Main Course
Pho Nguyen’s rice plates are the highlight of the menu, each offering a fulfilling and flavorful experience. Here are some of the standout options you won't want to miss:
Korean Short Ribs Rice Plate with Sunny-Side Up Egg – If you're a fan of tender, marinated short ribs, this dish will be a hit. Served with a perfectly fried sunny-side-up egg on top, the combination of flavors is simply irresistible.
Shredded Pork Skin & Pork Chop Rice Plate – A fan favorite, this rice plate offers a delicious combination of crispy shredded pork skin and succulent pork chop, making each bite more satisfying than the last.
Grilled Chicken Thigh Rice Plate – If you're in the mood for chicken, Pho Nguyen’s grilled chicken thigh rice plate is a must-try. The chicken is char-grilled to perfection, giving it a smoky flavor and crispy skin that pairs wonderfully with the soft, fragrant rice.
Each of these rice plates comes with a generous serving of rice, ensuring you have a complete and filling meal that’s both tasty and satisfying.
Refreshing Beverages to Complement Your Meal
No meal is complete without a refreshing drink, and Pho Nguyen offers a variety of beverages to complement your dining experience. Whether you prefer something cold and sweet or a traditional hot beverage, there’s something for every taste:
- Thai Iced Tea – A sweet, creamy, and slightly spiced tea that is the perfect refreshment on a warm day.
- Hot Tea – For those who prefer a calming and warm beverage, Pho Nguyen offers a selection of hot teas that are soothing and flavorful.
- Italian Soda – A refreshing and fizzy choice with a burst of fruity flavor, perfect for pairing with any of the rice plates.
- Honey Boba – If you're in the mood for something a little more indulgent, try the honey boba. With its chewy tapioca pearls and sweet honey flavor, it’s the perfect treat to end your meal.
Why Pho Nguyen Stands Out

Reviews
Best pho in Boise! We drive all the way from Kuna often for the pho. Other options aren't our fave but def the pho. This is the first place we've been able to find pho with veggies and we love it! The service is fine. Most of the staff is young. The owner is friendly.
The food was GREAT. The service was a little lacking, but not terrible. I think the actual building could use an update, it seems a little old and rundown. I'll be back, for sure. It was delicious.
Ordered DoorDash since I was in the mood for Vietnamese and was so pleasantly surprised!! Got the fresh spring rolled and the kalbi plate. Spring roll was perfect and peanut sauce was delicious. Kalbi also had great flavor! Growing up in Hawaii I'd say this competes with top Vietnamese food. Can't wait to come back and try their pho
Just hands down the best pho and vermicelli in town! If you like some spice, Ask for their special chili sauce and they will bring it to the table; it's amazing and I believe you can even buy it! Always a 10/10
Authentic as it can be. Not too pricey, but they give you a hefty amount. Very clean, and quick service. Everyone is nice and friendly also. I keep coming back since finding out this spot.
