  Hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Central Florida and they absolutely deserve their reputation. We arrived about an hour and a half before closing and everything was still hot and fresh and clearly cooked to order which already set the tone. We ordered a Banh Mi and the bread alone deserves praise. Perfectly crisp on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. What really surprised me was how many layers of flavor were packed into it. There was a lot going on but somehow it all worked beautifully and felt very intentional. We also tried one of their sparkling drinks which was refreshing and well balanced. The pho broth was another standout. Flavorful and light and not overly oily but still hearty with depth and multiple flavor notes. You could tell real care went into it. The rice and chicken platter was refined flavorful and clean. Everything complemented each other really well. Beyond the food the service was exceptional. Our server was incredibly attentive and thoughtful even offering a bag holder for a purse and a small stand so our kid could watch cartoons on the phone. Those small details made a big difference and showed genuine hospitality. Overall an amazing experience from start to finish. Great food great service and a place that clearly takes pride in what they do.

  Had never had Vietnamese food before and it changed my entire appreciation for how food is made in general. The layers of flavor were things I did not know could be accomplished. Owners couldn’t be nicer too. Great experience each time we are there, which is now just about once a month.

  I had the last-minute decision to try out this restaurant super close to where I live after work and work on some things on my computer, and it was totally the right choice. The owner was so sweet and accommodating to my every need, the service was so fast, and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend!!

  Now I know why Pho Akaushi was voted Best Vietnamese Restaurant in Orlando in 2025 — every dish we tried was thoughtful, flavorful, and beautifully executed from start to finish. We started with the Hanoi Half-Moons, and they were delicious. These Steamed Pork Dumplings were tender and delicate, topped with scallions and paired with a homemade chili oil that added just the right amount of heat without overpowering the flavors. We also ordered the Summer Fresh Spring Rolls (Goi Cuon), and they were absolutely delicious. These fresh, hand-rolled rice paper rolls were light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced, they’re a must-order appetizer. The Steamed Edamame with truffle oil was an elevated surprise. Light, perfectly cooked, and subtly indulgent, the truffle oil added a rich, savory depth while still letting the freshness of the edamame shine. For the main, we ordered the Classic Banh Mi with pork, and it delivered on every level. Served on freshly baked French bread, the flame-grilled pork was juicy and well-seasoned with fragrant herbs and spices. The sandwich was layered with pickled carrots, cilantro, jalapeño, scallions, white onion, fried onions, lettuce, and spicy mayo, creating a perfect balance of crunch, heat, and savory richness. And of course, the Pho is the star. The broth is fresh, aromatic, and deeply flavorful, tasting like it’s been simmered for hours. Tender meat, perfectly cooked noodles, and scallions, white onions and cilantro make each bowl comforting and customizable. The Poulet Saigon Rice Platter was a comforting and flavorful standout. The house-marinated grilled chicken was tender, well-seasoned, and served over fragrant coconut jasmine rice, accompanied by lettuce, pickled carrots, cucumber slices, cilantro, and topped with fried onions and scallions. Every bite was satisfying, aromatic, and beautifully composed. The Love in Bloom Rose Lemonade, was a refreshing, lightly floral drink that was crisp and not overly sweet — the perfect complement to the bold, savory flavors of the meal. Don’t skip dessert. The daily pastry specials were a wonderful French inspired finish — a Mango Passion Fruit éclair that was light, bright, and perfectly balanced, and a Chocolate Cream Puff pastry that was rich, airy, and indulgent without being too sweet. A delightful surprise that rounded out the meal beautifully. We paired dessert with a Vietnamese Iced Coffee, bold, sweet, and perfectly strong, making it an ideal ending to the meal. With friendly, efficient service, a spotless dining room, and consistently excellent food, it’s easy to see why Pho Akaushi earned its Best Vietnamese Restaurant in Orlando title! It is definitely worth the drive from downtown to Avalon Park! If you’re searching for the Best Pho in Orlando, Top Banh Mi, or award-winning Vietnamese food, Pho Akaushi in Avalon Park is a must-visit.

  Cute restaurant by lake and residential area. Very friendly staffs. Pho was delicious and delivered within ~5min. When I mentioned about that I like tendon which was not part of the menu, they added it to my pho without additional charge. Utensils, cups and dishes were pretty, helped my appetite and positively influenced the dining experience 🫠 oh tiramisu was super delicious!!
