So much more than pho!

Yes, the vegan pho is terrific and there are multiple choices. But there's also so much more.
The vegan menu is just as long as the non vegan menu, making Pho Fresh an excellent place to go with your omni friends.
The noodle dishes are particularly good. #Veganuary

SOS-free GF options!

I went to this restaurant because Chef AJ recommended it. It’s wonderful when one can go to a restaurant and order something made from whole Plant foods that are gluten-free and SOS-free (no salt, oil or sugar). I ordered the mushroom noodle and vegetable dish, which wasn’t on the menu. It’s something Chef does special for people that eat this way. I also had some, tofu spring rolls and asked them to just steam the tofu instead of frying it. It was perfect! Highly recommend. 

Pros: Great veggie bowl , Good service, Makes accommodations

Vegan delights not 100% Vegan

The food is super delicious, our favorite was the veggie potstickers(perfectly crispy) and the tofu starter loved the sauce and perfectly crispy. I loved the Thai tea, it is refreshing and actually made with natural tea mix. The crispy roll delights are good definitely a must get!

They have a vegan section on the menu, super friendly and helpful. Would definitely go again went a few times before! I highly recommend!

It would be 5 stars if they went fully vegan!

Ps: will add pictures, they just not loading currently, service issues.

Yummy

I had the garlic chikn sandwich, at first it was medium spicy but then I bit into a pepper that I didn't see in the sandwich and it became spicy 🥵 it made my nose run 😆

I'm a mild spice level person so I wouldn't recommend this sandwich for people like me. It tasted good before I bit into the spice.

Yup, it’s good!

Came here out of disappointment because the vegan place next door was unexpectedly closed. This place did not disappoint! They have a large vegan menu - lots of good stuff to choose from!

The sweet and spicy tofu starter was by far my favorite! I would come here just for that. It’s crispy perfection! In fact, I think it’s my favorite tofu appetizer ever 😋

The chow mein with mock chicken was also a surprise. Very oily, but the flavor is wonderful and unusual.

Definitely recommend this place!

Pros: Large vegan menu, Sweet and spicy tofu is 💣 , Very friendly staff

Cons: Dining room is very loud and noisy

One of the best in Sacramento!

My partner and I have been fans of Pho Fresh for years, enjoying their Valentine’s Day meals and Vegan Chef Challenge entries. So it was a no-brainer when we needed to think about businesses to cater our wedding. Chef John created a fantastic menu of incredible vegan dishes, from their baos to spicy Mongolian mock chicken to a delicious curry asparagus mock chicken. It doesn’t feel right to be giving them only 4 stars, but they’ll be opening up a fully vegan restaurant soon and you bet I’ll be there!

Lots of vegan choices

I got the recommended Sexy Honey Bao and it was really good. They are large and filling. Came with a spicy dipping sauce that was delightfully spicy. Didn’t blow you’re head off.

I also got the spicy and sweet tofu that was crisp and again a nice heat level for my tender tongue.

Pros: Lots of variety.

Cons: Be careful not to order too much. 😀

Found tripe in pho 😬 eek

The food would’ve been perfect if there weren’t traces of tripe in the house vegan wonton soup. 😞 Thankfully, they voided that from the bill. The vegan calamari is best when it’s fresh. Sautéed kung pao garden with mock chicken was good too. Everything was reasonably priced, in my opinion.

Lengthy Vegan Menu

The vegan menu is substantial…it’s great! I’ve had some dishes that were just ok, but most dishes I’ve tried are really good. The Peking sesame tofu appetizer was really flavorful and the caramelized tofu banh mi was pretty good too. The banh mi came with a broth/soup that we dipped our sandos in and it was really tasty! I’ve heard the waits can be long, but luckily we didn’t experience that on this visit. Would recommend this place when dining with omnis especially since everyone will be happy. 🙂

Great vegan oil free menu

Not a lot of restaurants have great vegan options. Even fewer have vegan oil free options. Pho Fresh has both!! Their award winning food is fantastic! I would rate this 5 stars but HappyCow won’t let me because they have non-vegan food on the menu.

Pros: Lots of vegan oil free options , Great tasting food, They know “vegan”

My Secret Addiction

This place is close to my ride home. The vegan menu is HUGE. The tofu belly tacos are my absolute favorite. All of their soups are top notch. I’d give it 5 stars but this stupid app won’t let me because it’s not a completely vegan/vegetarian restaurant. They do use separate friers.

Extensive Vegan Menu

The chef and staff at Pho Fresh understand the needs of their vegan customers and this has become a destination restaurant for the vegan community. Our favorites include pho, banh mi, basil popcorn tofu, and the Big Eastern Burger- which is available first week of the month. They also have terrific iced Jasmine tea.

Pros: Lots of items to choose from , Service is excellent , Chef enjoys creating dishes for vegans

2 pages worth of vegan choices

Had lunch at Pho Fresh, a little off the beaten path. The two vegans of the group had the com (rice plate, that is) Mongolian mock chicken and the sauteed kung pao garden, with mock chicken. Both dishes were excellent; the mock chicken, although lacking the texture of "real" chicken, still was very flavorful. The kung pao chicken noodle dish was almost too much food; the rice plate was a little more sensible. Gotta get back there to try something else!

Pros: Great flavors and sauces; ask for oil-free options, Ample servings, very reasonable prices, Nice ambiance, although not fancy

Cons: On Coloma Road, not known for gourmet restaurants

Should be a 5 Star

They have a specific vegan menu. I had the mock calamari, delicious doesn’t even begin to describe this dish! Also had the vegan roll and a lemon grass vermicelli. Highly recommend!!

Pros: Separate vegan menu, Knowledgeable staff

Wish I could give 5 stars!

Only reason it's 4 stars is because it won't let me give 5 stars! This really is one of my favorite places to eat. I'm a regular for lunch and wish it was closer to my house so I could come for dinner too. So many options for vegans and vegetarians. I've eaten the faux calamari, spring rolls, egg rolls (no egg), tofu pho and the tofu stew pho. All delicious! Try it, you'll love it!

new flavor vegan dishes

The chef went out of his way to create us dishes that was vegan. They are a full service with lots of meat dishes but they are branching out to vegan clients. Had alot of wonderful dishes and looking forward to their vegan menu soon.

Ask the servers for recommendations and you won't regret.

Pros: lots of vegan dishes fresh and good quality flavor

Cons: they serve meat dishes too
