Pho Pier 77 Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato 


North of the heavy tourist areas of Pier Park, resorts, and Wonderworks of Panama City Beach is Pho Pier 77, a modern and relaxing spot for Vietnamese cuisine facing the beach. My wife and I had rented a cart for the day traveling up and down the beach and stopping in for a bight at lunch. First starting with some spring rolls and fried wontons, and finishing the meal with my wife having the chicken Phở while I had the beef. The flavors of both soups were spot on, fresh, and service was top notch for a beach style restaurant.
