What People Are Saying About Le's Restaurant
Featured Review

In Short – Many first-time customers of Le's (formerly known as Pho Pasteur) make the mistake of ordering too many dishes, as most entrees are large enough for two. Straightforward pho (noodle soups) prove popular, and the adventurous have many interesting dishes (caramelized catfish, fresh squid with scallions) to choose from. Bowls of vermicelli, topped with grilled meats, shredded lettuce, mint and roasted peanuts, are meals in themselves. Traditional desserts include chilled Asian fruits and creamy rice pudding.

best crispy spring rolls
by MoScannelli at Citysearch
This is my "go to" spot to eat. The crispy spring rolls are the best I've ever had! I've tried over 15 dishes and have been impressed by each one! De-lish!!!
- Pros: awesome food, great service
- Cons: none
Middle of the road Vietnamese, Thai +

Contrary to some 5 star reviews, I believe Le's (former Pho Pasteur) has gotten worse since it has been sold and renamed. Portions are "ample" bordering on huge in the case of Pho. I have a bone to pick with the depth of flavor vs quantity . When I come to Le's, I'm craving a big bowl of pho. I still prefer this location over others in Harvard sq and Atrium mall. The lemonade, fruit shakes, vietnamese coffee are all good and authentic. Back the Pho, the tripe was too chewy and the other cuts were overly fatty/grisly. Le's also offers Thai dishes, in case you want a bit more variety, which are good but nothing wow.
- Pros: Portions, seating, timing of food
- Cons: not as good as it used to be
Love it!

It's a great place to get cheap and healthy food.
The food is really light -- not heavy and greasy like most Asian food. A great find!
- Pros: quick, inexpensive
- Cons: service can lack occasionally
can't get better than this!

This is my favorite restaurant in Boston. Delicious, inexpensive, quick & healthy. This is one of those places you can eat at everyday without your wallet getting smaller and your waistline getting thicker. Best Pho in town! Highly recommended!
- Pros: Cheap & fresh
- Cons: Parking
