Where do I even begin? This place used to be a solid spot back in 2021, but whatever made it good is long gone. We were excited to revisit what we thought was a delicious Vietnamese restaurant — but what we got was a complete disaster.
Let's talk about the Pho, which should be the crown jewel of any Vietnamese restaurant. Instead, it tasted like hot water with a hint of sadness. Honestly, you’d get more flavor from a 99¢ instant pho packet at the grocery store. It was that bad.
I ordered the steak flanks — they were drenched in some overly sweet sauce that completely killed any natural flavor the meat might’ve had. As for the egg rolls, they were an absolute mess: soggy, mushy, and borderline inedible.
My wife had the Pho as well, and she couldn’t even finish it. Her exact words were, “This doesn’t taste like Pho at all.” We used to look forward to the boba here too, but now it's just sad — watery, bland, and definitely not worth the price.
I don’t know what happened to this place, but it’s nothing like it was. Save your money and your taste buds. This was hands-down one of the most disappointing meals we’ve had in years.

Avoid! I ordered a lemongrass dry noodle bowl from here. The dish sucked, the chicken tasted like curry (not lemongrass), the noodles were uninspired, the lettuce was simply tossed in straight out of the Costco pack... there was just no love in anything they did there. When I told the service about it, they didn't care.... They don't care and it shows in the food they serve. I've had amazing dry noodle bowls with grilled onions, spices, fresh herbs, sliced crunchy lettuce, and delicious sauces for half the price at Noodle Bar in Marina, CA. This place, on the other hand, served the blandest noodle dish I've ever had. What a waste of money.

I recently visited this restaurant with my husband and ordered the vegetarian pho. Unfortunately, the dish was extremely bland and lacked any real flavor, even after adding sauces. It was seriously just water (with a hint of chlorine) and veggies. I love vegetarian pho, and I know for a fact that it can be very tasty when made well.
When I mentioned this to the staff, they simply didn’t care. The cashier later justified it by saying that’s just how vegetarian pho is, and that I needed to add all their seasonings to make it flavorful. I found that response quite disappointing.
It honestly makes me feel sorry for them—to see that they couldn’t care more about what they serve or how their guests experience it.
Overall, I was very disappointed and won’t be returning. Not recommended.

I don't know what yall are doing back there in the kitchen but no!!! Please for the love of God put some pride back into your food and service. Your food is over priced for the quality and the quantity you provide. I ordered a lemon grass chicken and received 6 pieces of bland boiled chicken with white rice. Take some pride in your food yall are representing Vietnamese cuisine in this tiny town and this is what you feed the people? I swear being from another culture I can probably make better lemon grass than this. Everyone if your looking for great Vietnamese food this ain't it. Save your money save your hopes. This Vietnamese is not Vietnamese food. It is Americanized Vietnamese food. Their pictures look better than the food actually is. Very overhyped. It's a shame you don't care.

One of the best Pho’s and egg rolls I’ve ever had 😛

I ordered the Pork Spring Rolls on Doordash, and left instructions behind to replace their peanut sauce with fish sauce because I have a severe peanut allergy. When my order arrived, the restaurant still sent out my food with the peanut sauce. They used to be very cautious with matters like these, but nowadays they have seemed to grow careless. When I called the restaurant to let them be aware, they put me on hold and eventually hung up on me. Please, if you or a loved one has severe allergies be careful when ordering or dining here!

Pleasantly surprised by how good the food and drinks were here! We were passing by this town and decided to give this restaurant a shot - one of the best places we stopped at during the trip! The papaya salad had great, authentic flavor (and not spicy), my pho's broth was rich and flavorful, and the boba was soft and chewy! The milk teas were also very good and the flavors were on point. I would definitely come again if I'm in town!

The food here is super delicious! I always get the house special, which has a great variety. I wish they had an option with just the tendon and meatballs though- those are my favorites. The boba here is pretty solid as well.
Service is fast, friendly, and efficient! You seat yourself upon entering and you have a menu basically right away- food arrives about 5-7 minutes after you order.
The tables are a bit small and the music is a bit loud and consists mostly of instrumental covers of 2010s pop songs. A bit bizarre and distracting. Those are minor gripes though, and overall I love this place.

The pho was so delicious and came out very quickly. I got the beef combo #1, it had lots of meat and noodles. Additionally, the pho was very affordable - great value! The inside was nice and well maintained. I would definitely recommend coming in for a bowl of pho.

Just didn't make it for me. My stir fry chicken was very tough and dry. The rice was ok. The men's room was out of order. I won't be back.
Very nice place. The food has amazing flavor 😋 love the assorted springs rolls

Pho broth is rich and yummy.

Ordered a steak and meatballs pho and broth was delicious. But i can't believe they didn't have any chile oil tho, like whaaaa? Customer service was also non existing. Once they took our order the waiters didn't even look our way

We usually really enjoy this place but I ordered on DoorDash and they didn’t want to give the dasher extra fish sauce because they said it costs extra? There’s no option to add it on DoorDash. I don’t really enjoy their pho broth without extra fish sauce.
