FAQs
What’s the difference between pho soup and dry pho?
Dry pho is served without broth and comes with sauce on the side, while traditional pho is a hot noodle soup served in aromatic beef or chicken broth.
At Pho Real, we pride ourselves on serving authentic pho soup alongside our signature house specialty – dry pho. Pho soup is a beloved Vietnamese classic: a soothing bowl of rice noodles served in a rich, savoury beef broth. It’s comforting, wholesome, and perfect for any day of the week, especially when you’re after something warm and satisfying. Dry pho, on the other hand, is a modern twist — served without broth, it features tender rice noodles, your choice of protein, and our flavour-packed house sauce on the side. Light, fresh, and full of character, it’s a dish that’s uniquely Pho Real.
What pho soup options are available on the menu?
Our pho soup range offers something for everyone. From the classic rare beef pho, to the bold and hearty ‘Bo Kho’ beef stew, or stir-fried beef (available gluten-free), each bowl is made with care and full of flavour. For a lighter option, try our poached chicken pho or the vegan pho, which is both plant-based and gluten-free. And if you're craving variety, our special beef combo delivers a mix of premium cuts and flavours in one generous serve.
Are the spring rolls gluten-free?
Yes, our pork spring rolls are gluten-free! You may also have 6 gluten-free spring rolls with a seafood or vegetable option of your choice for the cheapest price in Brisbane, which is $12. Or, sample our homemade pork spring rolls — crispy and packed with flavour. They're a serve of 4, served with traditional fish sauce, so they make an excellent tasty starter.

Stir-fried vegetables and crispy tofu are also on offer, and both of these are gluten-free and vegan. These also appear in our dry pho, so you've got appetising, satisfying choices whichever way you choose to dine or take away.

What makes the Pho-Real dry noodles special, and what topping options do you offer?

Served with silky rice noodles and your preferred protein, each dish is paired with our signature sauce to tie all the flavours together. It’s a standout item you won’t find anywhere else.

Whether you’re after something plant-based, spicy, or deeply savoury, we’ve got something that’ll hit the spot.
What’s the most popular dish?
Our most popular dish has to be the classic rare beef pho — it’s a real crowd favourite for its rich, comforting flavours. But our signature dry pho noodles also get plenty of love from regulars looking for something a bit different. You honestly can’t go wrong with either!
