Hung Vuong 2 has the best pho in Victoria St which means it has the best pho in Melbourne. The best possible order is the Small Vegetarian Pho with $2 extra vegetables. YUM!!! Such fresh vegetables and lovely lightly fried tofu. Never going back to small vegetarian pho with no extra vegetables. Thank you HV2 😻

I come here for the vegetarian pho with tofu and an egg and I am not even a vegetarian. The stock is insanely deep and flavoursome, I initially thought it was chicken stock but the staff assured me it isn't
The vegetarian spring rolls are awesome too.
My Rating: 4.5
It’s been a while since I had Vietnamese in Richmond, so I decided to drop by with a group of friends for a meal. I noticed that Pho Hung Vuong 2 had moved to a bigger premise taking two shop fronts. Having asked one of the staff members I was told that they had moved around mid-2018.
I particularly like PHV2 as their pho is always consistent and I was excited to try it again in their bigger establishment.
🔆LOCATION🔆
Pho Hung Vuong 2 is still situated on Victoria Street, but have moved down closer to where Commonwealth Bank branch is, directly opposite to Woolworths supermarket complex.
There interior of the restaurant is brightly it, and very modern looking. On the far left wall there is a long shelf with nice displays of pottery and plants. There’s plenty of seating and great for large/group gatherings.
🔆SERVICE🔆
Our waitress was friendly and efficient. Tea and menu were given to us as soon as we sat down. There were 5 of us and we all ordered a bowl of pho each and some spring rolls to share. Our order was delivered to us within 15 minutes! Fabulous!

🔆VERDICT🔆
There was a very generous amount of sliced beef in my pho which was great! The beef was sliced thinly and slightly raw – perfect! The soup base was light yet packed full of flavour, although I did find it was a bit oily however I think it does add to the flavour hehe!
My friends and I consumed the prawn spring rolls every so quickly. They were fresh and tasty and we could taste the prawn filling too! We had decent amount of lettuce pieces to wrap the spring roll.
My three-colour drink was tasty and had even amount of ingredients to clearly show that its 3 colour – mung beans, red beans and pandan jelly. Yum!
All in all, we had a lovely meal at PHV2 in Richmond.
Authentic Vietnamese cuisine that’s satisfying... we got the large beef pho for $14 which came in a generous serving of meat. The soup was delicious and not too salty. The grilled pork pho was as good. We also got the mixed pork and chicken vermicelli which wasn’t as tasty. The pork spring rolls were small and slightly salty but still good. The iced white coffee was strong and sweet. Overall we would highly recommend the pho!
The beef broth is really good! Light but very flavourful. I went with the medium size because the large looked way too big. In hindsight I should have gotten the small.
Probably the best place to visit when you’re craving for authentic Vietnamese dishes in Melbourne. Definitely delicious! My dad really loves pho and he said this place has the best tasting broth he's tasted in Melbourne. We also tried the rice vermicelli with beef, which was very tasty as well.
Don’t underestimate the large....
Was after a quick and warming meal. Stopped by this place and ordered a some pho. Well balanced broth. Service good.
I highly recommend trying Pho Hung Vuong 2! I’m not usually a fan of pho but this place has me converted. I ordered the beef brisket with tendon and it was so chewy and tender. The broth is full of flavor unlike some places which taste like water. If you have a sweet tooth like I do, order the three color drink! It’s coconut milk with pandas jelly and red bean YUM 😋
2 Nov 19. I have been coming here for 15 odd years love everything on the menu. However today I ordered the vermicelli with grilled chicken and it tasted good but seemed to only have half its regular volume.... so that was a bit disappointing hope if it was just a one off!
By far the best pho in town. My sis in law took me here and demanded that I try “gầu” which is like a fattier cut of brisket, and it’s so goddam good (not for people watching their waistline of course). It’s basically a crunchier fat than what you’d get with normal brisket. I am hooked!
Solid Pho, legit ambiance and fast service. 🇻🇳🍜
I opted for their chicken pho with extra chicken and I thoroughly enjoyed it. A nice broth and decent fresh pieces of chicken, none of that funky old chicken that some places use. 🐓🥬
I also had a 3 colour drink, fried prawn spring rolls and some fresh pork rolls.. Just nice! ☺️☺️☺️
Really delicious pho! The chicken broth is particularly good! The bowls are well priced, the staff are friendly, and there is great complimentary tea on the tables.
Will definitely be back 💞
Quite busy Vietnamese pho restraint, but quick service. The food is delicious and well priced, which is awesome.
The sliced beef with brisket and tripes rice noodle soups are always my fav. Very tender meat delicious soups.
1.5% surcharge applied when pay by cards.
The fresh chilies are VERY hot, be careful
The best authentic Pho in Melbourne, quick friendly service, delicious Pho, love the Vietnamese iced coffee, we keep going back!
The noodle of my bowl Pho was terrible, loose not chewy and tasted like frozen noodle, been in freezer for long, or maybe I came in the wrong time…
4 stars is for the Rice Paper Rolls
It saved everything and made my day 👍🏻
The best pho in eastern suburbs. Dishes are brilliant, and most significantly, the environment is sooooooooo clean.
This would be our only pho restaurant from now on.
Could be my 10th times revisited this restaurant. Cosy in-store atmosphere, next to tram stop, dishes are delicious with reasonable price. Manu are customer-friendly as they offer small, medium and large size for all dishes. Restaurant could be busy during lunch time but there’s no difficulty to find seats. Strongly recommended
It took awhile to find great Phô when I moved to Melbourne, should of gone straight to Victoria Street, one of best phô I’ve had, it was super delicious and quick (nothing wrong with that), I’ll be back to try other items on the menu for sure!
