I walk in, say “large number 9” as I sit down. 45 seconds later, a large number 9 has appeared on my table. 5 minutes later, the check. Flawless experience.

The food is incredible, however the customer service there is bad. We’re regulars there and always pay and tip but everytime we go the man that is at the front never talks to us, he’s very quiet and isn’t patient. We were going to order something, he came up to us ready to take the order then ignored us and walked away so we had to wait even longer to order. They always rush everyone out by bringing the bill shortly after the food gets there which rubs us the wrong way. When we are eating, the servers put utensils on the table we’re eating on to re stock it, that was completely rude as we were still eating and that could have waited until we were done. The servers also use bad language out loud when they converse with each other, when none of us want to hear your curse words while we’re trying to enjoy the food and the environment. I’ve talked to other people who eat there too, and they told me they’ve had either the same experience or similar experience. Even tho the food is good, I won’t eat there with bad customer service that spoils my food.

The owner came out to greet us and he personally is the main cook there making most of the meals. They were very welcoming and prepared us a table right away as we were walk in customers for a party of 7!

Service from staff was awesome! Pho was mid, broth was not flavorful, noodles were too soft, cuts of meat were cheap, side vegetables that came with the pho were old, and vietnamese coffee was mid too. I felt that the owner was rushing for me to finish my meal.

Disappointed with their bún bò Huế. Instead of using the correct soup, they used phở broth.

Refused to serve us because we had our “legit” service dog with us…saying they only allow small service dogs and ignoring the fact that we explained it was illegal according to ADA laws. Well now they’ve been reported to ADA for violating the law and we will never return. Places like this are not worth the time or effort to patronize.

Rudest customer service I’ve ever experienced. I am traveling with my mother in law and her service animal and we were refused service because they “only allow small service dogs”. We pleaded our case about service animal laws but between the staff and the single customer we were harassed enough that we had to leave. Service animal or not, go elsewhere because this establishment it not worth your time or money.

Amazing food, awful service. The young male server needs to learn some manners.

You can’t go wrong with the pho from here. Sure the staff isn’t always friendly but you don’t come here to be friends with the staff you come for good tasty well priced pho and that is exactly what you will get.
