The food use to be so good until not long ago me and my cousin in law went to eat there and their pho taste it so bad. The broth taste it like the dish soap water and no flavor at all and it was so plain. So then we let the cashier know why it taste it like that and she went to the back and came back to tell us why it was like that because she say she give us the wrong broth… so tbh it feel like they give us the dish wash water. She told us the broth next to the pho broth is something else and won’t tell us exactly. But then we didn’t pay for it and I appreciate that she was at least honest about it. But then I feel so bad that I taste it the broth like that and wish it could’ve been better than that.

The service was slow even though it was not busy. I ordered the steak pho & the broth tasted very plain, no flavor, only 5 slices of the steak. My cousin’s wife had ordered the beef combo pho & her broth tasted worse than mine, like dirty water. It was my 1st time there & my cousin’s wife tried food there before a couple yrs ago & it was good so she recommended this place. This was sadly a disappointment for us. I appreciate that we didn’t have to pay after we told the worker but overall was not satisfied.

The food is sooo good, so much flavor and perfect combination of spices. The yellow curry is my favorite and every bite tastes like the 1st, Amazing! The portion size is big, well worth the price and its made to order (from what i can tell)! The server is kind and funny too :)

I went with my brother and we were the only ones there so while we waited for our food we just had a cool conversation with the lady behind the counter and she gave us some free chai tea. The food was delicious and the portions are fat would definitely recommend this place and I'll definitely be going back.

I'd rather not come here but my husband likes their laab. The dining area is sketchy to say the least, makes me think how the kitchen looks.

We came by one day, no customers but the workers were busy in the kitchen. After standing there for a minute or two going unnoticed the lady finally came to the front with an attitude as if we were an inconvenience. My husband wanted to order laab but she said itll take a while coz theyre busy prepping for a $200 order..really? I was immediately turned off and told my husband we should leave.

Maybe its the biggest order theyve ever gotten , which is sad. But that was one of the worst customer service I've ever received from such a dingy place. Never returning !

Food and value is amazing, $14 for curry that could last for over a day to go and the pho here is $10, which ill try next. The place isnt nice looking but i couldnt care less when the food have good portions and are cheap. Service is a bit iffy as well but it was just a wait since they are busy with orders and obviously ran by a few people. Maybe just take it to go and eat somewhere nice. I ate a few small plates and im full and 2/3 of the curry is left and i can make my own rice. Def will come here when i want cozy authentic food to take home but maybe not dine in

At first I thought this place was some kind of mob front because of how the entrance looks and they used to only accept cash (now they accept everything). But they have amazing food. Fantastic flavors. Curry was a bit spicy and very delicious. Pad Kee Mao was perfect. We also had spring rolls, and it all came out to only $41. Go try it. Let me know how the Laab is. Several Door Dashers came in and out while we were there, so try that route if you don't feel like going out.

Love their food great flavor and great portions and prices. They get a little busy sometimes but they are up front with the wait times. Totally worth the wait every time but they are usually fast.

The phone service here was unacceptable. Instead of being polite and helpful, the person on the line was dismissive and downright rude. Restaurants are in the business of hospitality, and it was clear that courtesy and respect are not a priority here. Very disappointing.

I ordered the pho and sandwich special so I got to try their sandwiches and soup in one go. All the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. Tasty meat on both items. It came with a soda and the price was great.

The lobby was a bit warm and there was some clutter but there was a TV to watch and the lobby was clean and free of foul odors

Will visit again for all my Pho needs and to try some other foods.

I ordered bbq rib and pork sticks. The taste was not good. It was grilled too dry. Worse, I had severe diarrhea after eating it.

The building is very run down and the inside of the restaurant is a bit messy. The bathroom had hand soap that had been watered down and mold on the floors.The restaurant had suitcases and shoes laying around. Aside from the restaurant being pretty dirty, the food was decent. The green curry was good and packed a kick. The chicken pho was very good and light.
