Pho Bayou Restaurant/Milk Tea in Louisiana

"I’m no expert on Vietnamese cuisine. I’ve eaten at only 4 or 5 such restaurants. But this is by far the best one I’ve ever been to. Everything is excellent, especially the pho and the vermicelli bowls. Generous portions. Great value."

"I had beef stew and wow yummy, good flavor and really tender meat. Crab Rangoon was good and creamy. My daughter had pho with chicken base and the broth was delicious."

"Food is so good and the staff and owners are very friendly! I recommend! Even if you’re not a fan of pho, their shrimp po boy and teas are amazing too."

"Came here for the first time with the family. Ordered their large Pho Combination, Meatball Pho, Honey Glazed Chicken, Spring Rolls, Fried Egg Rolls, Soft Shell Crab Special, and Grilled Pork Banh Mi. All the dishes were flavorful and delicious. The only issue that I had was there were only 2 people working in the entire restaurant and we waited for a while for our food to come out. We were only 1 of 2 customers in their restaurant. This reminded me of my parents when they ran their restaurant by themselves, but they were a lot faster. I also got charged for a Combination Pho when I only got steak and brisket. The guy who was the cashier/cook/waiter, apologized and told me he forgot my meatballs, but still charged me a Combination. They didn’t even have tendon or tripe, and when I asked, he said they give it by request. If that is the case, that is not a Combination Pho and I shouldn’t have gotten charged for that. Pho broth was clean and made very well. My large didn’t have that much rice noodles so I felt I got a little ripped off. My son had a medium and he had the same amount of noodles that I had. It more seemed to be if you want more broth vs the portions being bigger. Otherwise, the food was flavorful and delicious. If they can speed up their service and if someone ordered the Combination Pho and they actually gave them what they ordered, then I think this place would go places. The staff are friendly. Service is slow. They have a lot of tables to dine on. Their parking lot is super small, but it wasn’t busy so I don’t think you have that issue."

"All the essentials: good broth, sriracha, and cafe Su da"

"I lived in San Francisco and San Jose for 30 years, lived in Nashville for 7 years and this is the best Pho we ever had. If there is such a thing as a perfect dish, this place serves it up hot and delicious. Please come here to eat, you will love it too."

"Real Gem one of the best pho I’ve had. Visiting from NY and had a great swamp tour in Jean Lafitte. Never would have guessed we would find a Vietnamese restaurant this far down. I wished we had orderd more bahn mi to bring onto our plane flight."

"Small family owned and operated restaurant. Very friendly and they aim to please. Poor boy bread is the best, we love their shrimp poor boy. The shrimp are bought locally. We enjoy all the food."
