5/5 for the Food and drinks, it was spectacular, great serving sizes and good variety! The variety of beverages and the cola’s they had!

Rating 4/5 for Service since I can’t speak to the service when it’s busy, but it’s spectacular when it was not so busy. Food came out quick and they checked up on us often.

Atmosphere 4/5, again it wasn’t busy so can’t fully speak to the vibe of the restaurant. But as it was calmer and slower...

One of my regular Pho spots. Proper week-long broth, light and delicious and many configurations of meat and veg combinations. Great in-situ, delivery or take home.

If you like spicy, request their home-made sour chili sauce that is on the tables in the restaurant (its delicious) and that they give you extra hot jalapeños as they seem to cater to a less spice-tolerant clientele.

This place is so yummy!!! Really really good pho. I've been here twice now and gotten the 30 hour beef pho with brisket both times and it's just soooo yummy. Buttery meat, very very flavorful broth. Just wonderful soup. I'm really impressed and will definitely be back!
