About Pho Lewis Tran

Tucked into a shopping centre corner, Pho Lewis Tran dishes out rich, hours-simmered beef pho and crispy banh mi without any fuss. The dining room keeps things stripped-back—patrons come strictly for the food. Expect brisket slow-cooked until it breaks apart, alongside a fiery bún bò Huế carrying honest shrimp-paste funk. Crepes hit the table blistered and crisp, accompanied by fresh lettuce and generous ladles of dipping sauce.

  • Regional Vietnamese Specialties: Crispy bánh xèo crepes and robust bún bò Huế alongside traditional combination beef soup.
  • Hours-Simmered Broth: Tender brisket slow-cooked for hours in aromatic, deeply simmered beef broth.
  • Warm Host Hospitality: Friendly, attentive counter service with generous extras from the solo host.

Authentic home-style broths, rare regional specialties, and heartfelt hospitality in Acacia Ridge.

  • Slow-Boiled, Rich Pho Broth

    Beef pho is prepared with a slow-cooked broth that yields deep, authentic richness paired with tender meats.

    Broth was a product of many hours of boil with deep flavour.

  • Fresh, Crispy Bánh Mì

    Crispy pork rolls and traditional fillings are served fresh on crusty bread with balanced house-made sauces.

    The bread was fresh and crispy, the fillings were super tasty, and the sauce brought everything together perfectly.

  • Bold Regional Bún Bò Huế

    The kitchen prepares traditional Bún Bò Huế highlighted by robust aromatics and authentic fermented shrimp paste notes.

    Their Bun Bo Hue/spicy beef noodle soup was deeply flavourful, with more of that shrimp paste funk than you'd usually find elsewhere.

  • Bun Bo Hue

    Their Bun Bo Hue/spicy beef noodle soup was deeply flavourful, with more of that shrimp paste funk than you'd usually find elsewhere. The serving was generous and I left full and satisfied.

    Anna

  • Combination Special Beef Pho

    I was served a comforting hot bowl of soup noodles with beef balls, and satisfying amount of beef brisket that you could tell has been slow cooked by the way it would break apart in your mouth and the amount of flavour. Broth was a product of many hours of boil with deep flavour.

    Adrian Man

  • Banh Xeo

    The banh xeo was crispy, the filling was good. The nuoc mam sauce was okay. She also gave me extra lettuce leaves and sauce and didn't charge extra. It was a fresh, refreshing dish and I will be back for more!

Before you head over

Practical advice on ordering, regional specialties, and shop pace

  • Order in person to avoid markups and wait times

    Ordering in person at the counter rather than through third-party pickup apps can ensure cheaper menu pricing and prevent unexpected wait times, as online orders may not be prepared until you arrive.

  • Explore regional specialties like bánh xèo and bún bò Huế

    Look out for less common regional dishes like crisp bánh xèo and bún bò Huế with pungent shrimp paste, alongside core pho and bánh mì items.

  • Plan for a compact space and solo-operator pace

    With limited seating and a solo or small team handling cooking and service during busy windows, visit with a bit of flexibility or grab takeaway for a quick meal.
