Time Out Abu Dhabi

Pho Mo in Abu Dhabi

Pho Mo might be nestled inside the bustling food court of The Galleria Al Maryah Island, but don't let that fool you. This Vietnamese spot punches well above its weight. While it might be surrounded by fast food chains and grab-and-go snacks, this sleek spot is dishing out bold, beautiful flavours that taste like they came from a backstreet in Hanoi, not a mall corridor. From soul-hugging bowls of pho to crispy bites that'll have you fighting over the last piece, Pho Mo is here to prove that fast-casual can still be unforgettable — and seriously delicious. Balancing authentic flavours with a modern flair, it serves up soul-soothing bowls of pho alongside a line-up of fresh, vibrant dishes that go big on flavour and never skimp on quality.

Rich, aromatic broth (simmered low and slow like it should be), silky rice noodles and ultra-fresh herbs combine for a bowl that's as comforting as it is crave-worthy. The beef version is a knockout – deeply savoury, satisfyingly slurpable and worthy of its 'best in the city' reputation. But it's not just about the soup. The spicy lemongrass pho brings the heat, the chicken skewers are smoky and tender, and the calamari is crisp, golden and dangerously addictive. For those on a health kick, you're covered too. Take your pick from light spring rolls and fresh herbs bringing balance to the bolder dishes. And if you need a jolt, the Vietnamese coffee delivers a sweet, strong hit that pairs well with just about everything.

Prices are fair for the generous portions and quality on offer – expect to spend a very wallet-friendly amount for a main. With sleek branding, casual seating and even a quieter terrace if you'd rather escape the food court buzz. With bold flavours, feel-good dishes and a vibe that's playing a whole different game, this Vietnamese gem proves that great food doesn't need white tablecloths or a fancy postcode. Because when the pho's this good, who cares where you're sitting?
