Looking to have great pho while in DC. We’ll be staying in Logan’s Circle and I’m hoping to get some great pho delivered one night while in town.

Froggy Bottom in Foggy Bottom is pretty good for Pho. They have good beer too.

Pho 75 in Rosslyn is the best. But pho 14 in Columbia heights is second.

Second for Pho 75

Pho14!!
Especially if you are doing delivery. Some Pho places deliver the broth cold. Last time I ordered from Sprig and Sprout they did this.
Pho14 is delicious and delivered warm/hot!

Eden Center in Falls Church is worth the trek. Only place I like to eat pho since 2010.

I vouch for both of these unless you're willing to go further into the suburbs.

Pho 75 - within walking distance of Rosslyn metro station (15 ish min walk if I remember right)
TheSquireOfShaw t1_j1xmj45 wrote
Technically pho 54. And the phonetics phone number doesn’t work if you’re calling for pick up, but the pho 54 number does. One thing to note, if you’re going for traditional, is that they don’t serve tripe.

+1. Get the lemongrass broth, spicy if you’re brave.

Don't even have to go that far... Pho 75 is top rated and in Rosslyn / courthouse in Arlington

I've been there, not terrible, But still doesn't beat Eden Ctr spots IMO.

Maybe not the best in the whole city, but it's definitely the best in NW. Excellent broth and large portions.
wellwellshitwellshit t1_j1xwvql wrote
What spot in particular? Bruh you can't name an area and say it's better then a particular restaurant. Pho broth is so complex and individualized to each restaurant. Ive Been to a good portion of the ones I'm eden center and can say pho 75 is better... Pho sate is better pho HOA is better then any one in Eden. I love eden center but come at me with a restaurant

BTW: no such thing as good delivery pho, no matter how good it was when it left the kitchen.
dontforgetpants t1_j1y226j wrote
I stopped frequenting Pho 14 in about 2018 because it seemed like the quality of their meat cuts just kept deteriorating. I used to usually get the Pho Chin and then they started running out of it at random times and then the cuts were increasingly fatty and/or gristly. Can you or anyone else report on whether they’ve improved things since then, especially with the Pho Chin?

Walk downhill from Court House if you're feeling a bit lazy. Is it still cash only?

+1. I think the broth is even better than the Columbia Heights storefront. But sadly they are closing soon. Landlord raising rent.

They have a delicious vegetarian broth

Pho Tan Vinh in downtown Silver Spring. My best friend was visiting from San Fransisco and ate there three times while here for ten days. Said it's the best pho he'd ever had. I agree.
But you can't have it delivered. Pho has to be served to you fresh from the kitchen. Otherwise it's just soup.

Pho Junkies in Navy Yard!!! I can’t hype this place up enough. It’s run by two guys who used to run the business out of a food truck. Not the fastest service, but the pho is always on point.

Another vote for pho tan Vinh. Get the spring rolls too. The best I've ever had anywhere.
Pipes_of_Pan t1_j1zmn1f wrote
I personally believe there are a couple great spots but for where you are staying and for delivery, I'd definitely recommend Pho 14 in Columbia Heights. That's our local and they do a great job with delivery.

This is the only answer. Everything else is wrong lol

Yea! It has multiple locations around the DMV - I do think the Rosslyn location is way better than Rockville. Rockville isn’t as good as it used to be

Pho 72 by the target on 14th is really good. I think it's a newer spot.

Do they have the spice levels published anywhere? I like mine very spicy and never seem to be able to get the spice level correct.

Pho 14 used to be good, but it's really gone downhill over the past few years.

i actually agree - my opinion of Pho 14 has been slowly changing every time i visit. Circa 2015-2018 it was some of the best broth I had but in the past few years its gone down hill.
which spot would you recommend that hits as good as Pho 14 used to?
cheesegloriouscheese t1_j20k68b wrote
Nothing in DC is as good as VA (Pho 75 or Eden Center) but this is pretty respectable according to my Vietnamese girlfriend, it’s run by Vietnamese people, AND you can walk there from Logan Circle, avoiding the horror that is “delivery pho!” EDIT: she adds, “Really, you should just go to Pho 75!”
cheesegloriouscheese t1_j20ky3m wrote
100 times yes. But if you care more about delivery than about good pho, may I suggest you instead order ramen from Haikan, which is near Logan Circle. IMO the best ramen in DC, and comes cold with detailed microwave instructions so you end up with something fresh and tasty!
