Pho T J

I am from California so when I was visiting Colorado I was craving phở. Found Phở T J… The phở was delicious! And so were the dumplings and wontons. The server was extremely friendly and so sweet. Made us feel just like family :) Will definitely be back here the next time I visit Colorado!

Hidden gem in Brighton! Best Vietnamese food I’ve had. My sister and I ordered dumplings, Phở with meatballs and rare beef (Phở Bo Vien and Tai) and the combination rice plate (Com Tam Dac Biet).
I can’t figure out which is my favorite… Probably the meatballs or the dumplings. Or maybe the egg rolls. I guess my point is, this place is awesome. Don’t think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. Give it a try, you’ll fall in love.

Hidden little gem, great surprise. Ordered the combination noodle bowl, with An extra egg roll. This was plenty of food for 2 people. Good price and large portion. Will be back.

We really enjoyed our first visit. The food was really good. The prices are very reasonable especially when considering the portion sizes. The meat, in the dishes, was prepared very well. We’re always happy to ding good boba drinks

These guys are great! I swung by today for the first time and ordered a to-​go Phở order. They had it ready in less than 10 minutes and they were super friendly. I look forward to coming back here with my spouse and trying them for sit down service.

Excellent! Great Phở noodle dishes and friendly attentive staff. Would definitely recommend this place.

Great food and great service, never had a bad meal. They offer takeout that always impresses. We have taken our 2 kids to dine inside and never had a problem. The phở ga is great and the portion sizes are very large. The beef is very good also.

Phở T J is, based on my 1^st visit eating the grilled steak with rice and select veg, very good by any Vietnamese restaurant standard. I’m not in Brighton often but I sure want to come back here – even if I have to go out of my way a bit. Tender meat, rice with the perfect sticky texture (loosens up when doused with their sauce if you like it like me), and fresh lettuce and cucumber. Very nice staff too!

Fantastic. My dad and I rolled through here a few years ago and he wasn’t impressed. But I talked him into another try with Mom. (The real critic). She loved it. I noticed it was clean, fast and tasty. I thought the only good Vietnamese places were next to smoker friendly… Guess I was wrong ;)
The spring rolls were simple, great, but no filling or herbs. I drown those bad billys in soy sauce any way so not sweating it
Vietnamese egg rolls were quite bomb.
My mom got the Bundac Biet she said it was better than most.
I give it a five out of five because these guys have made the top of my list for local Vietnamese.

After driving into Denver a few days ago and eating Phở at a highly rated phở noodle house, I was shocked to find this gem right near our hotel here in Brighton. My husband and I have not found phở this good since we were in Hawaii. Very flavorful! Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere :)

The vietnamese food is great and is the boba. It is a very casual place and I recommend getting the P1. There are a couple of Phở restaurants in Brighton and I think this one is the best. It does not have a liquor license, just be aware of that. The service is speedy.

I was driving through Brighton and decided to Unilocal a restaurant. Phở sounded great so my 2 year old son and I decided to try it. This place was wonderful! They had fast service and were very kind. They talked and interacted with my little boy and had him laughing.
We ordered the spring rolls, phở and grilled chicken with vermicelli noodles! Everything was delicious! We will definitely be visiting again!

Take-​out is more hassle than it’s worth, but the service and phở is great if you dine-​in.

I’ve been to Phở TJ several times but have yet to review. Let me begin by listing my very limited sampling off of their menu. Regarding food, I can speak about the Phở, specifically Phở Tai Chin (rare steak & well done brisket) and meatball, spring rolls and iced coffee.
The Phở is pretty darn good. Best in Brighton? Well, first off, that’s not saying much. Brighton isn’t exactly brimming with Vietnamese restaurants and despite what a few others say, I’ve been quite pleased with Chopsticks’ cuisine. That said, TJ never fails to provide a tasty bowl of noodly goodness. The spring rolls are also good, though neither are the best examples of their respective dishes I’ve ever consumed. Finally, the iced coffee. It’s good, what else need be said?
The décor is decent. It is a bit on the dark side (not in the Star Wars way but rather overall illumination), neither repulsive nor amazing, but fairly good on the whole. Service is also decent. I’ve had friendly and attentive service and I’ve had amiably indifferent service. Though, I’ve never had truly bad service.
Unlike most Phở joints, I have had the occasion to order bowls to go. I’m pleased to report that their accuracy and timeliness both earn high marks. Additionally, I’ve never felt I’ve sacrificed portion size for the convenience of eating off site. Kudos!
To sum up, the quality is very good, service decent, décor serviceable and location convenient. This establishment is a keeper, giving Brightonians another option while giving other restaurants incentive to keep their pencils sharp.

I was excited when a phở place opened up in Brighton, it feels like we don’t have a huge amount of options here that aren’t chains or fast food.
I’ve had their phở soup and their noodle bowls. I’m not crazy about the sauce they marinate the meat in, I prefer it to just be seasoned with the rice noodles. But the phở has a great broth and the garnishes are really fresh.

This is the highest-​rated restaurant in Brighton. It is also one of the very, very few in the general northeast of Denver area that is not a goddamned franchise. So, it’s pretty nice to know that all the food isn’t arriving frozen on a truck every morning.
The broth is quite good and the garnishes are fresh. The steak was definitely not «rare», which was a bit disappointing. It was still delicious, though. Ordered some boba, both flavors were made with milk and might have come from a mix of some sort. Still totally drinkable.
The menu could use maybe a little bit of expansion for the less adventurous set, parents and inlaws and such. The building used to be a creepy chinese restaurant and still looks dated and shady from the outside, even though it’s actually very sunny and bright inside.

First, I’m not a Phở expert, having said, I really enjoyed the Phở here. The broth tasted very good, the cuts of meat were tender and actually came out rare. The veggies for the Phở were fresh, I ordered the small so it was actually a little too much sprouts for me. The staff was very friendly, service was super quick and the place was very clean, I’ll definitely come back to try their rice and noodle dishes!

Very impressed with their friendly service! They «thanked» us over 5 times during our 1^st visit. This is our 2^nd time here and the service is still pretty consistent. They offer a nice basic menu of phở and the charbroiled meat rice and vermicelli dishes. And of course some appetizers including the famous spring rolls and vietnamese egg rolls.
The phở broth is really good too. And today I’m trying their combo vermicelli bowl — the bowl is huge! Ok… Off to eating now! ;)
Definitely glad there’s now a «closer» phở restaurant. The only thing is their closed on Sundays. ;(

Good Phở. Place way packed on a cold day. Super fast and friendly service for my walk in «to go» order. Large To Go Phở feeds 2. Plenty of fresh fixings.

I am visiting from Virginia, and my aunt was in the mood for some phở for lunch. It wasn’t too busy, so we were seated right away. I liked that we were brought waters when sitting down since I was really thirsty and I think it’s just courteous for restaurants to always provide water for customers without having to ask. We were given time to look over the menu. I ordered the shrimp vermicelli and added a shrimp egg roll for $ 1.50 more. The food didn’t take too long to come out. I really liked the marinade used for the shrimp. The vermicelli was cooked well, and sauce was added on the side. To me, the sauce was similar to the taste of the sauce used for fried spring rolls at most Vietnamese places. Our server was very pleasant and checked on us often without being too overbearing.
