      Our Story

      Our franchise co-founder, Dr. Andrew Cai, was raised in the foodservice industry. His father, a refugee from Vietnam, founded the first Vietnamese restaurant, Pho Pasteur®, in Boston, Massachusetts in 1991. For over 30 years, the restaurant provided well for the family, attracting an enormous following of guests of all races, backgrounds and from all over the world who enjoy the brand’s variety of traditional noodle soups, rice plates, and other popular dishes. Today, Dr. Cai and his wife Clara Cai carry on the legacy and community impact, with the goal to bring the same opportunities for establishing work/life balance, supporting the family, and feeding the community to other motivated business-builders through franchising.

      What Guests Love About Pho Pasteur®

      "This is my absolutely favorite pho place-ever. I’m from out of town and nothing compares, except for MAYBE pho in Asia. I’ve come to Boston a few times for family vacation and each time I make a point to go back here at least once and it is always so so good. Friendly people, amazing food, great flavor and honestly worth the trip to Boston alone. I never write yelp reviews, but these people deserve it. If you needed a sign to check this place out, this is it … GO! "

      M.W. – Tempe, AZ

      "Love this place. Pho is best in Boston & Vermicelli noodle salad with shrimp, pork and egg roll is amazing. 10/10 would recommend this place."

      T.W. – San Francisco, CA

      "We’ve been going to Pho Pasteur since the 1990s, and it is still the gold standard for Pho. The broth is intense and ethereal, rich with star anise. The noodles are a perfect al dente. The pho Tai, Nam, Gan, Sach (rare steak, well-done flank, tendon, and tripe) is superb. The tripe is delicate and crunchy, and the rare steak is just right. Order the small Pho size, which should satisfy most appetites. The price is right. We’ve had Pho all over the US, and this is one of the best in the nation. Conveniently open seven days weekly."
