Prices are way too high. One person should not be spending $30-40 on lunch and a drink. Sorry!!

Great place for food
I hav been visiting this restaurant of over 15 years but their prices have gone up through the rough. The quality and flavor along with the very pleasant and amiable atmosphere haven't changed. But $14 for a bowl of noodles is just a little over the top. I do realize that everything is going up but along with the prices the quality should also be reflected and that hasn't happened here.. So sad to see this, we won't be back.

Locally owned. Supporter of local arts.... Tucson Origami Club meets here the first Saturday of every month at 10am.
I like the rare steak pho, the sandwiches, and the Spring rolls.

Had the pork-stuffed chicken wing and spring rolls. The service was good, no complaints there. No flies or anything crazy inside, but as unique as the entree was, the food really falls flat, almost to the point I'd forgotten to write a review. There must have been a change somewhere based on the reviews I'd read versus my experience. On the plus side, this has convinced a friend to teach me how to make spring rolls at home.

(TL;DR Full Price for Half as Nice)
Having eaten at both locations and trying multiple dishes between them (Phó, Claypot Chicken, Seafood Curry, Spring Rolls, and Pork Stuffed Chicken Wing) i post a 1 star review not because the food/service/venue is particularly revolting, but solely on the principle that its at the end of the day, a scam. A place can be mediocre enough that a harsh review feels necessary, to steer others away in the hopes that they try better. Because we certainly have better restaurants for each of their dishes and cuisine. The distinction between each asian culinary is almost sacred, so places that claim to do multiple usually and almost always, fails to capture the essence and quality of one let alone multiple (with rare exceptions, including fusions). The quality and quantity of ingredients were lacking in every dish. The most watery peanut sauce ive ever seen/tasted. The weakest Phó broth. Inconsistent temperatures in the same dish. And nothing, absolutely nothing felt freshly made to order. The Clay Pot chicken wasn't cooked in the Clay Pot, just served in it. Stone Cold Clay Pot.
Yummy! Love this place. Always amazing food and nice atmosphere.

Food always fresh and delicious
No flavor... Small potions...
And asian restaurant that serves Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese food. Their egg rolls are good. I have tried their pho. It's decent. And I have tried their lo mein. I personally liked the egg roll. If you're in the neighborhood and you're curious, give it a try.
Parking: It's in a plaza. They also have a drive thru window

I went here a few weeks ago because I was in the mood for some shrimp fried rice and spring rolls. Their shrimp had this weird, spicy, chemically taste to it so I called and told them as soon as I got home and opened the food. The manager told me to bring the food back, which I did..the next day.... (gross, how is that even sanitary?) and he looked at it & told me he could only refund me for half because he thought only about half of the food was left. I am appalled, the taste was gross and the fact that he asked me to bring back opened food and then took it an inspected it in the same environment used to make fresh food that other people had to eat is just nasty....what if I was sick or had COVID? Then to have a customer legitimately raise a concern immediately and you only offer to fix half of the problem is just down right CHEAP!! Don't eat here if you like clean, quality food! In my opinion the manager behaves like a gross cheap skate.
