Pho Hoa is conveniently located off the freeway in Federal Way. When you walk in, you will quickly realize that it is a corporate chain and after looking at their website I would guess it is one of the largest, if not the largest, pho chains in the US and possibly the world. The interior was clean and nice, and the service was fast.
Unfortunately it is also plagued by the same problem that most corporate restaurants suffer from: blandness. There really isn't that much I can say about the meal. It was okay. I ordered a spring roll to start; it was good but nothing special. The condiments were fresh and standard. The broth was okay but nothing special. The noodles were good and there was a proper amount. The only notable thing about the entire meal was the meat. The meat was a lower quality than I would expect from a truly good meal. The beef looked like thinly sliced bacon it was so fatty and I received one thin slice of nothing but fat.
Overall I would eat here again. The price is good, but I would not go out of my way to find one of their many locations. Go local; you will walk away more satisfied.
