I ordered chicken vermicelli for take out. The food was literally ready in a box in 30 secs. I’m not sure if the chicken was reheated from the day before or morning. Otherwise the vegetables were fresh. I wish there was no fried onions added to the vermicelli and basil leaves instead of the coriander leaves. Overall the food is tasty with good portion. Eating areas are small. It’s better to get take out.

ordered multiple items and each of them was excellent. Definitely recommend the green rice and fresh spring rolls. The chicken slider and the pork bahnmi were excellent as

The pho was terrible and the ingredients didn't seem fresh. I asked for a replacement, but they showed me that all the food in the refrigerator was not fresh. This is the worst Pho I've ever eaten.

Overall: 3.6/5 (dine in)This is a small storefront that's street facing so it might be hard to find parking right in front. I was surprised when I got there because I thought it was a sit down restaurant but the set up is really for take out/delivery. They have bars & stools along the side of the walls but at max, the restaurant can only seat 8-10 people. Customer service is good here though.Pork Belly Bun Slider ($5.95): Better than the grilled pork slider but was just okay.Grilled Pork Bun Slider ($5.75): The grilled pork was very dry.For both sliders, they gave a lot of carrots which I liked but they were lacking all the Vietnamese flavors. The buns were soft though.420 Downtowner Special ($10.25): We were both so disappointed when we tried this. The presentation was nice but the taste was mid. The green colored rice and the shredded chicken were bland. The pork on top was a bit less dry than the one in the bun and was the only thing with flavor.Nam Nam Wings (5 Wings For $7.95): The wings were the best item of the night. They were crispy and tasty.

The food is pretty good but the restaurant is dirty. The bar seating is sticky/ dirty; we decided to do to go. The bathroom had tinkle sprinkle on the floor and toilet. It’s just unclean…

The Banh Mi with the broth dip was un-pho-gettable! Highly recommend it! The staff was very kind and they make a pho-nomenol banh mi!

This place was okay. The service was not the friendliest. The seating area was very small and kind of dirty. The food was good.

An unexpected and delicious meal! Was visiting a friend down in Newport Beach and was craving some good Vietnamese food. Thanks to good old Yelp reviews, this restaurant looked like the perfect solution! Tip: There's a small parking lot for the shopping center behind the building. Park there, for free! I had the spring rolls with pork and the 420 Downtowner with grilled pork, so delicious. Savory green rice topped with juicy pork and grilled pork! Never had anything like it before! Service was relatively quick. You order at the counter first and then they bring it out to you. There were maybe 8 seats total in the restaurant. The back portion was closed. So good! Will be back again!
