Do they have a peanut chicken?

I'm not sure. I think so. Check it out for yourself.

Is it even possible to reach them by phone? It goes straight to a machine with no option to leave a message... was hoping to do some takeout.

I think what happens is if the line is busy, it gives a recorded message. I called and got the message, and a minute later tried again and it went through.

How is the beef PHO

All the food is amazing

Do they deliver?

Good food with good prices!! Under $3 appetizers and under $8 pho?! Too good to be true! The food is not the best food you will ever have, but it is definitely good authentic Vietnamese food. Service was fast and polite, even though it was pretty busy by the time I got there. All in all, I would definitely recommend this place

Unfortunately, although the flavor of the food was good, the Dine In service was poor, the bill for the food was higher than listed on the menu and the rice noodles had been replaced with wheat noodles, although I questioned the wait staff prior to ordering to confirm the noodle were made of rice. Buyer beware, especially when ordering take out the problems cannot be fixed without an extra trip back.

The quality and price are both independently the best for Vietnamese and Thai dishes in Rochester. Their chicken Pad Thai is definitely the best in Rochester. Make sure you use the sauce they provide with it. It's a rice vinegar sauce that changes the taste of the dish for the better. Without the sauce the pad Thai tasted like pad see ewe. With it the taste is a little sweeter like pad Thai. They use wide rice noodles. I'd definitely recommend for anyone with a craving for Thai/Vietnamese food.

It was very busy but the wait was not long...the food was amazing. So authentic and seasoned just right. The people were very friendly. Place is small and seating is a little tight but definitely worth the visit. Always come when I come to Rochester. I reccomend the pho and pad thai with shrimp.

Food and service were both excellent. My wife and I both had combination pad thai. Very good, was hot when we got it and portions were large enough that we both had to get take home boxes.

I've been here quite a few times and have always had good service. There is so much on the menu that it is hard to choose. One time I ordered something and asked them not to put peanuts on since I'm allergic to them. The dish was brought with peanuts, but they were very nice about bringing me a new one. This time I decided on soup. The bowl was as big as a serving bowl! Have me three meals. I was disappointed that there was only one small piece of squid and one shrimp in thewhole bowl. It was very good though. I loved all the cilantro in it. I was disappointed that the tea I ordered did not come in a pot like every other place I've been, but was just given hot water and a teabag. The waitress didn't come with the bill (like someone else mentioned) but I did not find it a problem. I just went up to the cash register to pay. I think the biggest problem is the parking.

The egg rolls were tasty and unique. The Chicken Pad Thai was very tasty and interesting as well. This was the first time I've seen a Pad Thai with thick noodles like this, which I actually enjoyed. The parking is a little tight and they have signs directing people to nearby overflow lots that are available.

The food here is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. My husband recommended this place and I was in awe the whole time we were eating. There is no comparison to anything else I’ve tried before and no words to describe the flavors dancing around in your mouth but “YUM!”

I was asked to put ony mask just to be seated at a dirty table. Why worry about the mask if u don't even clean the table u seat your customers at. Soda was very watered down. Service was slow,, even though they only had one customer.the pho is bunk. Food very bland. Zero stars if i could

Literally THEE best food in Rochester omg. So grateful they are still open during the COVID pandemic. I'm from the cities and absolutely no restaurant up there compares to Pho Chau. Their service is phenomenal, they make your food SO quick, and absolutely everything on their menu is good. If you haven't been here yet, make it your top priority because you are missing out!!

Almost worth a drive from Minneapolis! We stopped in after a long day of hiking and were met with a busy dining room and the most amazing smells coming from the kitchen. We had chosen wisely. We were quickly seated and our orders taken. I thought it would take a while to get our food but was pleasantly surprised at how quickly it came. Two giant bowls of streaming curry and chicken. Amazing food. The owner greeted us as we left and thanked us for stopping in. It was a great experience and we were stunned at the prices (very affordable). We will go here again!

We thoroughly enjoy Pho Chau. Takeout on Friday night did take 40 minutes but it was worth it. Our spread including pad thai, banh xeo (Vietnamese crepes), bun bo xao xa (beef lemongrass vermicelli), and com tam dac biet (broken rice with grilled pork & egg). Probably wouldn't get the crepe again.

Food is decent I wouldn’t say too good, the staff are somewhat messy and arrogant , the old women at the counter is very sweet though , food tastes a little bland parking space is very limited. If u are planning to come in the afternoons for lunch please beware of the parking . I took off the stars due to bad customer service and food not tasting that good. But do give a try you might like the soupy noodles.

New owner ruined Pho ChauUsed to be our favorite restaurant in Rochester, MN. New owner took over recently and the prices for the same dish went up from $8 to $11, and then $15 in about ONE year. Plus, the food quality went down. Whatever meat they use is the lowest quality possible. I normally dont post reviews, but.... it is very dissapointing. We'll never give them our business again...Instead, try Pho Tai or Wabi Sabi

Delicious food! Still great prices though seem to go up a bit over the years. Service usually not too shabby though have had interesting experiences. Management always very accommodating if something went awry. Do their best when it’s super busy. Recommend going during a slow time for the best experience. Our favorites are chicken curry soup, fresh spring rolls, crab Rangoon, and shrimp pad Thai.

Not very many vegetarian options. Watch out for fish sauce in your food if you want to be completely vegan!If you eat all kinds of meats, this place is nice. Since my diet changed in the last 4 years I have been away from the area, it wasn't as good as I remembered it was. As a vegetarian, I won't be back to this restaurant again.

Prices have gone up since new ownership took over but luckily the food is still just as good. The pad thai is to die for! Only disappointment is that their vietnamese iced coffee has changed and is way too sweet. I used to stop and just coffee a out once a week but not anymore. I much preferred the coffee of the past.
