King Pho sits on a lively stretch of West Devon Avenue, serving up authentic Vietnamese fare with a focus on pho and other Asian classics. This is a straightforward, casual spot where locals and families gather for hearty, comforting bowls of soup and traditional rice plates without a fuss. The interior feels bright and unpretentious, reflecting the practical vibe of a neighborhood favorite rather than a polished dining experience.

Visitors here will find themselves drawn to the fragrant, well-balanced broths that form the heart of their pho offerings. The bowls come generously portioned and are easy to customize with fresh herbs, lime, and chili brought to the table, making it ideal for anyone who appreciates adjusting their dish on the fly. The menu extends beyond pho to include dishes like marinated grilled pork chop plates, shrimp spring rolls with a rich peanut dipping sauce, and seafood pho, delivering variety for those who want to explore more Vietnamese staples or need kid-friendly options like a special kids pho.

The atmosphere at King Pho is straightforward and family-friendly, making it a reliable spot for weeknight dinners or casual weekend outings. Service is attentive without being rushed, and the warm staff adds a welcoming touch that locals have noticed. While the food arrives fresh and hot, occasional waits—particularly when it comes to the bill—suggest this is more about relaxed dining than speedy turnover.

King Pho’s location on Devon Avenue means it fits right into the multicultural fabric of the neighborhood. It’s neither a flashy destination nor a trendy cafe, but a comfortable place where pho enthusiasts, families, and anyone craving a solid bowl of noodle soup can come to sit down and enjoy a meal that feels both familiar and satisfying.

For those planning a visit, lunch or early dinner times offer a peaceful experience before the nighttime crowd picks up. The balance of flavorful broth, fresh ingredients, and straightforward cooking makes it a go-to for pho fans and those who want to explore Vietnamese cuisine in a no-frills setting.

Lovely dining experience with a warm, inviting ambiance and attentive decor that enhances the overall vibe of the restaurant. The pho was flavorful, packed with fresh ingredients, and served piping hot. The bowel portions are generous. The spring rolls were tasty, although the rice paper skin stuck together a bit, making them slightly challenging to eat. The peanut dipping sauce was delicious and complemented the rolls well. Overall, a great spot for Vietnamese food, and we’ll definitely be back!

Love this place. Everyone there is always friendly! The Pho is top notch, the Bahn Mi is great, kids Pho is fantastic(not on the menu so be sure to ask for it), and don't ever leave without getting the shrimp and pork spring rolls with peanut sauce, which is incredible. Super kid friendly and the prices are very reasonable. Will be back here more often with the kids, and love supporting a great local business.

King Phở on Devon nails a fragrant, balanced beef pho—springy noodles, thinly sliced beef, and generous herbs, sprouts, lime, and chili to customize each bite. The bright, casual space, friendly service, and sub-$12 price make it a go-to for a quick, satisfying meal. Completely demolished my bowl!

The food was just amazing! The pho was thr best I have tasted in a long time. If Chicago food is like this, I need to visit more often. Their pho broth was so flavorful! All our appetizers came out hot and fresh. Everything was great! I gave 4 stars for service, only because it took them awhile to come to our table with the bill. Otherwise, our overall experience was great!

Great food, had an early dinner. The pho, spring rolls, shrimp fried rice and egg rolls were very good. Highly recommended.

King Pho on Devon has been serving up authentic Vietnamese food for many years. I’ve been here at least 20 times over the years and it always consistent, and very good. I always get the Pho with beef and tendon. We also enjoy the Rice Paper Shrimp Rolls, and Vietnamese Iced coffee! Next time you’re in the mood for heart warming soup give this place a try, you won’t be disappointed. I highly recommend King Pho!!!
