Madame Pho Belfast South

Personal and environmental. we felt pampered for the choice and ordered a lot of food. eating was amazing, we'll be back.

Eating is delicious, the tofu is exactly what they want in tofu and the portions are generous. that was also a reasonable price.

Nice little restaurant that, like most places, is running as a takeout exclusively during COVID restrictions. Tried the tofu bahn mi (baguette mayo tofu sandwich) and the centerpiece is the pho, offering an all vegan one. Comprises a plummy tasting broth that is glassy smooth, noodles, tofu, aubergine, broccoli, many beansprouts and the optional temperature increasing chilli sauce and sliced red chillies plus a wedge of lime to squeeze in. I dumped all of the spice increasing measures in and it was scalding but the taste so beautiful I ate the lot. It's also markedly more healthy than most Asian takeouts and tastes subtly sweet and savoury, and with a kind of Hoi sin aftertaste. Huge and satisfying. Not a huge menu but focuses on doing what it offers authentically and well. Does Vietnamese coffee too (condensed milk and drip filtered coffee) also well worth a try.

I had Salt and Chilli tofu and a vegan Banh Mi. Both were delicious the tofu was lovely and firm which isn’t always the case, especially in non vegan places. Staff were friendly and it was great value, the banh mi was under £6!

I'm sorry, but the food is terrible. As a starter, I ordered the fresh spring rolls. I was okay, nothing great. Às main the vegan pho, the broth was so bland, could only taste oil and a kind of sweet herbs. The aubergines on the broth were quite nasty and the broccoli almost raw. My husband ordered the rice bow, he liked, so I give two stars. The staff is beautiful.
