" Over the years, Mama Pho has consistently provided great food. I tend to stick to what I know and usually get the chicken pho, and it never disappoints. Their seasoning and noodle texture is always on point! I often bring friends, and they've all walked away impressed. Prices are reasonable for what you get, especially since the servings are generous. Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic Vietnamese cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently discovered Mama Pho, and it has quickly become my favorite spot for lunch. The pho was the best I've had in Vermont—so flavorful and satisfying. The portion sizes are plentiful, ensuring I leave with a full belly. The service was warm and prompt, and I appreciated the cozy environment that made for a relaxing meal. I love supporting local businesses like this one, and I’ll be sure to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I chose Mama Pho for our date night and it was an excellent choice! The pho we shared was delightful, rich with flavor and perfectly cooked noodles. The ambiance felt intimate with the low lighting and plant decor. The service was attentive, with our waiter making good wine recommendations. We will definitely be returning for more of that excellent pho! " (*Curated Review*)

" Such a sweet little spot for Vietnamese food! The pho was so flavorful, it made me feel like I was eating at a street stall in Vietnam! The service was warm, and I loved the inviting decor with all the plants. I can't wait to bring my family here the next time they visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Mama Pho is my go-to spot whenever I'm craving Vietnamese food. Every dish I've tried has been fresh and bursting with flavor. The service is exceptional; the staff is always welcoming and quick to help with recommendations. I particularly enjoy the banh xeo, which is perfectly crispy. The only downside has been the slightly higher prices compared to other places, but I believe the quality justifies it. This spot is definitely one of the best in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love Mama Pho! Their pho has become my standard by which I judge all other pho. The broth is rich and deep with flavor. The atmosphere is very welcoming as well—with lots of greenery creating a relaxing vibe. The service is typically prompt. Portions are generous, and the prices reasonable. I highly recommend bringing your friends and enjoying a meal here; it will not disappoint. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mama Pho is alright, but there are definitely better Vietnamese places in the area. The pho was decent, but not as flavorful as I had hoped. I appreciated the pleasant atmosphere and the service was very friendly. Portions are good, but I think I'm going to keep searching for my go-to Vietnamese spot. It was fine, but just didn't wow me.
