Great restaurant with authentic Vietnamese food. Dishes to look for include 'Beef 7 styles' Nong Thong Tastes, and broken rice dishes. DON'T EAT PHO here. They don't know how to cook beef or chicken Pho, so''''n/ I give 1 star less.

Ordered 2 bowls of pho to go. Presentation was great especially for to go packaging, but lacked flavor - didn't have the authentic Vietnamese taste in broth at all. I tried adding every spice and seasoning to fix it, but could not come close to fixing the broth. Waste of $24.

3.5 stars. The food is good, but relatively pricey. The special vermicelli was $17. Next time I would go for the regular vermicelli only for $14.

Horrible, the waitress watched me the whole time, and the food taste rushed, no flavor. I was disappointed

The place was empty at 3pm but appears to be a great place for families and large parties. We ordered three of the four kinds of fresh rolls. All were delicious.We can't wait to go back for dinner.

Fresh and delicious every time. Sweet local family owned, we dine here all the time - check out the beautiful booths. Just lovely and light..

Came here for dinner with my family. I was disappointed. The place looks nice. Decorated nice but the food was not great and the service was terrible. We tried it, now we know

The steamed fine vermicelli is actually make your own spring rolls and it tastes amazing as well as being fun and a large portion size. We also love the salty shrimp, eggplant, ginger pork, banh xeo, and soft-shelled crab spring roll. We come here regularly because it is inexpensive, very tasty, and the tables are pretty far apart. We wouldn't recommend everything on the menu, but try a variety and I'm sure you'll find something to like. They also either have no music or very quiet music, which is a plus for us.

I really liked the ambience, decor, and the huge menu. They offer a variety of Vietnamese cuisine that's much more expensive than just a Pho restaurant.

I went here with a party of 9 to host a special birthday dinner for my partner. They easily accommodated our big group with generous seating and an amazing assortment of food and drink. Service was quick. We were a table of vegans, vegetarians and omnivores and there was plenty of delicious options for all. We will definitely be back!

Such a strange place! We came for the ambiance. The food was mediocre at best. The service was awful. The lady acted as if we were bothering her the entire time. We were the only customers there at 7pm on a Friday. Strange energy.

Not sure how this place stays open, never seen more then 3 tables and the space is huge. Tired and sad service and food, bland, not fresh. Took some friends here a while back and they were all disappointed.

Pho was really bland. That's all I have to say cause that is all I got. I would not recommend this at all. Maybe the other dishes are more hopeful

Yummy Vietnamese food at an excellent value. Family run place. I usually get the pho and some sort of spring roll.

This restaurant was highly recommended by a friend and it certainly did not disappoint. There were numerous vegetarian options. It was almost difficult to choose. The food came out quickly and was presented nicely. Everything was so delicious. I will definitely return and bring other friends as well.
