I enjoyed certain items on the menu. The bone marrow was very good along with the beef carpaccio! However the Pho broth was lacking. We tried both the Satay Pho and normal pho, the satay pho was much better. It’s almost like the pho broth was made to be satay-fied. Would recommend the satay pho than the normal one.
The bun bo hue was lacking, would not recommend that

This place has probably the best pho sate soup base (15$) I've had at restaurants. The dish would have been better if they gave a few more slices of beef. The soup to noodle and beef proportion was a little off.
We also order their appetizer: bone marrow (8.5$) and bun bo hue.
The bone marrow was rich in flavour and came with a few slices of baguettes.
The bun bo hue was not spicy and a little blend in flavour.
This venue is located in a plaza with free parking.

Hands down the best pho I’ve ever had in my life. The broth is INCREDIBLE. I got the sate broth with beef rib (with added tripe and tendon), bone marrow, and the phojito cocktail. I’ve had pho in San Francisco, NYC, Toronto, and Taiwan, but this was legit the best pho ever! They definitely don’t cheap out on the quantity and quality of anything.

My colleague keeps introducing me to these small but amazing restaurants. Pho Dau Bo was awesome! Our server, Elena, was friendly & outgoing. She helped us wade through the menu. We both chose the spicy beef satè noodle soup. We also shared spring rolls to start. The portions are HUGE. I’ll have soup for two more days. I would highly recommend that if you find yourself down 17th Ave SE, you have lunch at this place. It was sooooo good. Thanks to the whole team. I’ll definitely be back!

Went there for first time in a bit and service has gone way down hill, kid had attitude and wanted to charge extra for another container of hoisin sauce. Don’t think I’ll be back again. Which is to bad use to have amazing service. Not sure if they changed ownership or not. But sad cause I use to highly recommend this place to everyone not anymore.

The best pho place in town. Always order there pho sate oxtail. The broth is so rich and has so flavour. It is a little bit pricier for where it at in the area. But whatever I'm willing to pay even if it was pricer as long as it delicious and food always taste the same I'm willing to pay. Don't want to pay for cheap food and it doesn't satisfy your cravings. I Minus a star because staffs don't always look nice and friendly but it is a hit & miss.

A friend and I stopped in here after I kept seeing all the delicious looking pho and bone marrow pictures they were posting on instagram. It did not disappoint. I had the spicy sate beef noodle soup and an appetizer of bone marrow. Lots of marrow on the bone and for a great price compared to other restaurants in Calgary. There are so many amazing pho places around the city but this has to be in the top 3 easily. I'll be making the trip to forest lawn specifically to try more things on the menu in the near future.

One of my favourite places to grab pho, ever. I've been coming for a few years now, and they make an amazing satay pho! I just tried their regular pho broth yesterday and it was excellent as well. The beef is good quality and they do not skimp on the quantity! The service is fast and friendly, and there is plenty of seating and parking available in the plaza. Come here if you want an excellent, piping hot bowl of pho!

Pho Dau Bo is probably my favorite spot for Pho /Vietnamese food. I remember coming here since I was a little girl, about 3-4 years old with my family and til now (20 years later) I'm still going here.
Sarah treats us well, almost like family. My boyfriend and I come to Pho Dau Bo almost every week. The quality of the broth is so flavorful and not watered down like some Vietnamese restaurants I've experienced. Their cha gio (spring rolls) and goi cuon (salad rolls) are a good size! I highly recommend trying this place out cause I'm sure it'll become one your favorites as well

I was recommended to go to Pho Dau Bo and try the popular satay beef soup. That is exactly what I ordered and I was a little disappointed. I prefer satay soup that is a bit creamier and spicy. The flavour was enjoyable but this bowl was not my satay beef preference.
The restaurant is open and clean and the server was very friendly! If I'm in the area, I will definitely go back and try another dish.

I've only been to a couple Vietnamese restaurants in Calgary but am slowly working my way through a few of them. I stumbled upon an Insta picture of one of Pho Dau Bo's pho bowls and I was instantly intrigued. They're located in the same plaza as Noodle World and Bun Bo Hue Deli.
I went on a late Saturday afternoon for lunch and the place was busy. The servers here are all very friendly and bring you hot tea when you sit down.
The menu is standard but I had eyes only for their pho. Note: you can only use credit card if your meal is over $20.00 (otherwise it's cash/debit).
