I tried the 12,900 won beef pho and 14,900 won spicy beef pho, adding free bean sprouts and mixing noodles and beef with sauce. Verdict: a generous, satisfying meal with both clean and spicy broths. ## Good to know - **Address**: 2F, NS Building, 133-9 Naseong-ro, Sejong-si, South Korea (세종 나성로 133-9 NS빌딩 2층) - **Weekday hours**: Mon–Fri 10:30–20:50; break 15:00–17:00; last order 20:20 - **Weekend hours**: Sat–Sun 10:30–21:00; break 15:30–17:00; last order 20:30 - **Parking**: Free restaurant parking - **Beef pho**: ₩12,900 - **Spicy beef pho**: ₩14,900 - **Extra bean sprouts**: Free - **Seating**: Tables for 2–4, larger tables, and private rooms *as written by the visitor on Sep 11, 2026* ## Inside Mekong Thai Sejong Naseong Branch and the menu ![Exterior of Mekong Thai Sejong Naseong Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-01-owq2t-900.webp) Mekong Thai Sejong Naseong Branch (메콩타이 세종나성점), located in Naseong-dong, Sejong, is a casual restaurant where you can enjoy both Vietnamese and Thai food—and, beyond that, some of the best Asian dishes. ![Interior of Mekong Thai](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-02-3bgtd-900.webp) ![Seating inside Mekong Thai](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-03-ry1zm-900.webp) ![Large-group seating and private rooms at Mekong Thai](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-04-yesxn-900.webp) Once inside, the space is wide and tidy. The tables aren't cramped together, and there are tables for two to four people as well as seats for bigger groups, so it looked like a nice place for a family meal. There are private rooms too, which makes it great for group dining. ![Mekong Thai pho menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-05-poc7x-900.webp) As you'd expect from a pho specialist, Mekong Thai has a seriously wide range of pho. Along with classic beef pho, there are shrimp wonton pho, spicy beef pho, tom yum pho, and seafood pho if you want something a little different. There are plenty of rice and noodle dishes too, from stir-fried noodles such as pad thai and mie goreng to fried rice, khao phat curry, and nasi goreng, so I think it would be great to come with several people and order a bit of everything 😆 ## Side dishes and beef pho ![Basic side dishes for pho](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-06-1nmyu-900.webp) ![Table sauces and tea](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-07-1cumf-900.webp) Pickled onions and pickled radish came as the basic sides, and there were sauces on the table to enjoy with the pho. Tea came with it too, and it was delicious haha. ![Pickled onions and pickled radish](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-08-70vek-897.webp) ![Sauces served with pho](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-09-ti111-900.webp) ### What does the beef pho taste like? Beef pho (₩12,900) The portion was incredibly generous 👍 There was plenty of beef, with lots of onion and scallion piled on top, so it looked appetizing from the start haha ✨ ![A bowl of beef pho](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-10-wrabe-900.webp) ![Beef pho topped with onion and scallions](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-11-p2kvg-900.webp) The broth was rich without being overpowering—clean and mild! The signature pho aroma wasn't too strong, so it had an easy-to-like flavor 😊 ![Mild beef pho broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-12-vqphq-900.webp) Picking up the noodles and beef together was so good 👍 With tender beef, rice noodles, and crisp bean sprouts all in one bite, the texture was lovely too. ![Pho with beef and bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-13-vfumf-900.webp) I like a little heat, so I set aside some beef and noodles and quickly tossed them in the sauce for a totally different flavor. It was mild and clean on its own, but once mixed with the sauce, the savory depth really came alive and it became richer and more punchy 💛 ![Pho tossed in sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-14-1hzwz-900.webp) ## Spicy beef pho with extra bean sprouts Spicy beef pho (₩14,900) The broth already had a faint red color, and with mushrooms, beef, scallions, and red chili on top, it definitely looked warming and spicy haha. By the way, extra bean sprouts are free. I love having loads of bean sprouts in my pho, so I added a big heap 😋 ![Spicy beef pho with bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-15-1sbfh-900.webp) ![Spicy pho with extra bean sprouts](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-16-1t778-900.webp) Rather than simply being hot, it had the savory depth of pho broth with an added warming spice, which was delicious. There were quite a lot of mushrooms and beef too, so it was generous right down to the toppings. Personally, I recommend the spicy beef pho if you like a warming, spicy broth ✨ ![Warming spicy beef pho](https://img.superchart.com/images/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho-17-e322d-1200.webp) It had been a while since I'd properly enjoyed pho, and Mekong Thai in Sejong really hit the spot! The beef pho had a clean, mild broth that was easy to eat, while the spicy beef pho had an appealing peppery, rich flavor. I also loved mixing the noodles and beef with sauce now and then for a different taste 👍 With generous portions and a wide, clean dining room, this was a great spot for a hearty meal! Mekong Thai is somewhere I'd like to visit again whenever I'm craving a steaming bowl of pho in Sejong 🌿🍜 ## Where it is - Mekong Thai Sejong Naseong Branch (메콩타이 세종나성점) (메콩타이 세종나성점) - 2F, NS Building, 133-9 Naseong-ro, Sejong-si, South Korea (세종 나성로 133-9 NS빌딩 2층) - 세종특별자치시 나성로 133-9 NS빌딩2층 - 36.490647, 127.2580493 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A9%94%EC%BD%A9%ED%83%80%EC%9D%B4%20%EC%84%B8%EC%A2%85%EB%82%98%EC%84%B1%EC%A0%90/@36.490647,127.2580493,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@sejong-table-clock/sejong-mekongthai-spicy-pho/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
