  This is my new favorite pho place in Round Rock. I've been to most pho spots around and have reviewed several but over the past several years I've come to Pho Dan and have always left happy. My usual is pho with lean brisket and eye of round. Add splashes of hoisin and chili sauces, jalapeño and fresh basil and you have "Tex-Viet"! Broth is rich and satisfying.
  Location is fairly easy to find, being at the west edge of La Frontera, near Men's Warehouse so pretty convenient. Not fancy by any means but also still has reasonable prices unlike some competitors. Owner/manager and the whole team are very friendly and hospitable. They don't point toward a table and say sit there .
  Give it a try - see you there, lunch or dinner.

  Having recently moved here and growing up in Little Saigon all my life I'm conflicted on the star rating here because the pho broth here was decent, not bad. The broth was clear, the noodles were decent, and the protein amount was decent. I have no complaints although nothing really stood out. I would go here if I needed Pho in a pinch since they are pretty close to me.
  
  The Hieu Tieu however shouldn't even be on the menu. The seafood you could tell was previously frozen, there wasn't your traditional sauce, and the noodles were stuck together. The portion size on the seafood was small but it wasn't a big deal I guess because it wasn't good anyways.
  
  The Bun Bo Hue was pretty much the same as the Hieu Tieu.
  
  Service was fast at first but to get our check a quite bit longer than it should. Eating at a Vietnamese restaurant I understand I shouldn't expect steakhouse service so I am grading their service accordingly.
  
  Moral of the story, go here for the Pho but skip their Hieu Tieu and BBH. Ba ngoai (grandma) would be disappointed.

  This review is for their chargrilled sliced pork (Thit Nuong). I absolutely love how they do this -- perfectly seasoned sweet and savory, perfectly charbroiled so you taste the slightly smokiness and the charred bits on the edges, yet the pork is tender without a lot of fat. I don't know how Pho Dan does it -- but no other Vietnamese restaurant I've tried comes close!
  
  I always have the chargrilled sliced pork with Bun (vermicelli salad bowl) -- lovely for summer :)

  Fantastic Pho. Broth was light and flavorful. The portion was great. I had the small and left full. I had the brisket and eye round. Meat and veggies quality was great. Clean place. Fast polite services. This is now my Pho spot in Round Rock.

  This was my second visit to Pho Dan. Both times was for dinner. Each time we were greeted by a server and seated at a table with a menu.
  
  Both times we ordered Shrimp spring rolls without the vermicelli noodles in one roll. They were awesome to accommodate that request. They make their spring rolls nice and tight. I ordered the char-grilled pork slices with egg rolls. It's my go to when I go to a Vietnamese restaurant. So far this spot has not disappointed me unlike some other places. The meat is thin and nicely charred. The food comes out quick too. We were hungry so it was good that our dishes came out quickly.
  
  The only thing I don't like is the smell of Pine-Sol when they started mopping around 8:30pm. I get it that they were closing at 9pm. Just my personal preference.
