Pho Bar Tallinn
Best Pho in town
Pho Bar is easily one of my most visited restaurants in Tallinn. It has the most authentic Vietnamese cuisine in the city. The price is affordable and the service is friendly.
My all-time favourite is their Phở Tái Bò (pho soup with medium-rare beef). The broth is rich and aromatic, with just the right blend of spices. The rice noodles are soft, and the beef is incredibly tender. And don’t forget to try their homemade chilli sauce as well! A tip — if you like it spicier, you can also ask for fresh chilli.
If you’re not into Phở, their spring rolls and fried rice are also authentic and tasty. The portions in Pho Bar are huge, so I’m always leaving with a full stomach!
