About Family Pho Geelong

Heaped bowls of fragrant noodle soup and welcoming family service make this Moorabool Street spot a standout. Regulars drop in for the rich beef pho—steaming broth loaded with tender brisket, flat rice noodles, and mountains of fresh herbs and bean sprouts. The kitchen stretches well beyond the standards, turning out fiery chicken laksa, tom yum, and crisp banh mi without missing a beat. Dietary restrictions pose zero fuss here, thanks to a kitchen that adapts dishes for gluten-free and low-FODMAP diets, down to house-made sauces and crunchy gluten-free prawn crackers.

  • Regional Noodle Soups & Beyond: Brimming bowls of beef and chicken pho anchor the table, complemented by hearty bowls of laksa, wonton soup, and wok-tossed nasi goreng.
  • Worry-Free Dietary Options: Extensive gluten-free, vegan, and low-FODMAP adaptations ensure nearly every dish can be customized without sacrificing flavor.
  • Family-Style Hospitality: Friendly floor staff and warm hospitality make guests feel right at home whether stopping by for lunch or planning a banquet.

  • Broad Multi-Regional Southeast Asian Menu

    The kitchen crafts a multi-regional Southeast Asian lineup including laksa, tom yum, and nasi goreng alongside Vietnamese staples.

    OMG, I have never been to a restaurant that includes almost any cuisine in Asia with the most outstanding tastes. Especially Southeast Asia dishes. Family Pho has helped me travel to almost every country on their menu.

  • Attentive Low-FODMAP and Gluten-Free Customization

    Diners with strict gluten-free and low-FODMAP dietary needs receive patient, tailored meal modifications without sacrificing taste.

    My wife is on a low fod map diet so very difficult to find a restaurant to accommodate her. They were so patient showing her the menu and finding something suitable for her to eat.

  • Extensive Vegan and Plant-Based Flexibility

    Plant-based diners can choose from diverse vegetarian and vegan noodle soups and dishes crafted with dedicated vegan sauces.

    We both ordered spicy vegan noodle soup with bean curd today, which I was allowed to have gluten free!! Seriously the bowl was filled with so many veggies and tofu/noodles and so flavourful.

    We hired Sy for our wedding catering and he didn't disappoint. We did a buffet and there was nearly nothing left. The food was spot on and the flavours were amazing.

    I picked a roast pork Banh Mi. My decision was right, it was delicious with the highlight of crispy pork and the sauce was so amazing.

Before you head over

Practical advice on timing, dietary customization, and menu options

  • Arrive early during peak evening rush

    The restaurant gets particularly busy on Sunday evenings with simultaneous dine-in and takeaway orders; arriving just before peak hours helps avoid a wait.

  • Ask staff for dietary and allergy modifications

    Staff readily accommodate gluten-free, vegan, and low-FODMAP requests, including custom noodle preparations and dishes like spicy vegan noodle soup.

  • Explore the broader noodle soup options

    Alongside traditional pho, the kitchen offers broader Southeast Asian specialties like rich chicken or beef laksa and spicy tomyum noodle soup.
