About Pho & Sushi
Pho & Sushi – a unique blend of Vietnamese comfort and Japanese finesse right in Tega Cay. Looking for a place that satisfies both cravings in one sitting? This spot at 1143 Stonecrest Blvd Ste 107 is where East meets East in the most flavorful way.
Where Vietnamese Pho and Japanese Sushi come together under one roof
At first glance, it might seem like a curious pairing: pho and sushi on the same menu. But step inside this cozy spot in Tega Cay, South Carolina, and it all makes sense. The atmosphere is relaxed but stylish, the service is friendly, and the kitchen delivers consistently fresh dishes that feel both comforting and elevated.
Pho & Sushi offers the kind of dining experience that welcomes everyone—from families on a casual night out to solo diners grabbing a quick lunch. You walk in and the aroma of simmering beef bones and toasted star anise wraps around you like a warm blanket. Then your eyes catch the sushi bar, where skilled hands craft colorful rolls with precision. It’s a balancing act between Vietnamese broth culture and Japanese raw artistry, and this place nails it.
People come here with expectations—expecting one cuisine or the other to play second fiddle—but Pho & Sushi treats both with equal respect. The pho broth is rich and aromatic, slow-cooked to extract every bit of umami. The noodles are tender with just the right bite, and the beef slices melt in your mouth. On the sushi side, each roll is meticulously constructed, with vibrant cuts of tuna, salmon, or yellowtail that reflect proper fish-handling techniques.
Whether you're a pho purist or a California roll devotee, you’ll find something here that feels made just for you.
The rich interplay between broth and bite
What sets Pho & Sushi apart isn’t just the dual-cuisine concept—it’s the attention to culinary integrity. There’s no compromise on either side of the kitchen. Let’s start with the pho.
The beef broth, in particular, is a standout. Long hours of slow simmering bring depth that’s hard to fake. We’re talking cinnamon, cloves, ginger, onion—all roasted to perfection before entering the stockpot. Then there’s the matter of toppings: brisket, rare steak, tendon, tripe, meatballs. Whatever your combination, it arrives steaming hot and generously portioned.
And if you prefer chicken? The pho ga version is a lighter option but no less satisfying. Silky rice noodles, shredded white meat, and a side of bean sprouts and herbs make it a customizable treat.
Then comes the sushi—delicate yet bold. Rolls like the Dragon Roll, with eel and avocado, offer that smoky-sweet punch. The Rainbow Roll showcases fresh sashimi atop a crab roll, creating a visual and textural delight. Looking for something spicy? The Spicy Tuna Roll has a satisfying kick without overwhelming the balance.
Sushi is often about restraint and elegance, while pho is about layers and comfort. When done right, combining them in one meal feels surprisingly harmonious. Imagine sipping hot broth in between bites of chilled tuna—your taste buds don’t stand a chance.
More than food—what locals say about the vibe, service, and experience
It’s not just the food that draws diners back to Pho & Sushi—it’s the ambience and the way people feel taken care of here. You get the sense that the owners truly care about what they’re serving and how it's received.
The interior is casual, with warm lighting and minimalist décor that reflects both Vietnamese and Japanese influences. Booths offer privacy for groups, while counter seating near the sushi bar gives you front-row access to the chefs' artistry. For those ordering takeout, the service is prompt and neatly packed.
Look at local reviews, and a pattern emerges: consistency, flavor, and friendliness. A couple celebrating their anniversary raved about the freshness of the sashimi. A mom of three shared how her picky kids devoured the pho without complaint. One diner mentioned the thoughtful extras—like lemon wedges and Thai basil that actually look fresh, not wilted.
Location plays a role too. Tucked into a convenient plaza on Stonecrest Blvd, the restaurant is easy to access, whether you’re a Tega Cay local or coming in from Fort Mill or Lake Wylie. There’s ample parking and even a few outdoor seats when the weather plays nice.
What really earns trust is the balance between quality and price. Portions are generous, and for what you get, prices feel reasonable. It’s not everyday cheap, but it’s solid value—a big win for families, date nights, or even casual business lunches.
Exploring the menu one craving at a time
The menu at Pho & Sushi deserves a closer look. It doesn’t just throw Vietnamese and Japanese dishes together—it gives each section the space and respect it deserves.
On the Vietnamese side, aside from pho, you’ll find bun (vermicelli bowls) with grilled pork, shrimp, or egg rolls. They’re fresh, light, and often served with a side of fish sauce for drizzling. Banh mi sandwiches—crispy baguettes with pickled veggies and savory meats—are another must-try if you want a quick bite without compromising on flavor.
Then there are the appetizers: spring rolls, fried dumplings, and edamame that bridge the two cuisines naturally.
The Japanese section shines with both classic rolls and chef's specials. There are nigiri selections with salmon, tuna, and eel that rival more expensive sushi bars. The signature rolls are creative without being gimmicky—tempura crunch meets spicy mayo in one, while another pairs mango with seared tuna for a tropical twist.
There are also vegetarian options, like cucumber avocado rolls and tofu pho, for those seeking plant-based comfort. And don't skip dessert—the mochi ice cream comes in flavors like green tea and mango, wrapping up the meal with a cooling finish.
What’s great is that the staff knows the menu well. If you’re new to Vietnamese food, they’ll help you pronounce things and make recommendations based on your taste. If you’re a sushi lover unsure about raw fish, they’ll steer you toward cooked options like shrimp tempura or eel.
A place to return to, not just discover
What makes Pho & Sushi stick in the memory isn’t just the combination of cuisines—it’s the feeling of being looked after. It’s the hot broth that arrives within minutes on a cold day. It’s the glistening sushi plate you didn’t expect to look that good. It’s the server who remembers your favorite drink and asks how your last visit was.
Food brings people in the door. But consistency, care, and flavor are what keep them coming back.
You could be dining alone after work, catching up with friends, or introducing your kids to new flavors—and Pho & Sushi adapts to that moment. It doesn’t try too hard to be trendy or fusion for the sake of it. It sticks to what matters: good food, warm hospitality, and a little bit of adventure across two culinary traditions.
The next time you're wondering where to eat in Tega Cay, consider this: one stop, two cultures, all heart.
