We went when they opened at 4 pm on a Saturday after a show. Not only were they opened, but they seated us promptly. This is a nicely laid-out restaurant in the Rockridge area. They have a large vegan menu, and the food is authentic. I bit on the higher side but likely comparable to the neighborhood.

Vegetarian options: They have a large vegan selection with choices of "beef", "chicken", and "pork belly". You can't go wrong with any of them.

Got the beef pho with rare steak and brisket. The portions I received were terrible for the price of ~$18. Such a small amount of noodle compared to other restaurants of comparable pricing. Finished all my noodle in three bites and just had meat and soup. Portions need to be fixed. Was still hungry after I finished the meal.

they have so many vegan options! Spicy lemongrass with vegan beef and pork belly is my fave. But really, it's incredible to go to a pho place that has more than one vegan soup ?Also, the servers are always so kind and welcoming, every time I visit.

Delicious pho, definitely an underrated place, there's always seating. Also a good selection of cocktails and other dishes!My only plea - please y'all, turn the heat up in this joint! In summer it's chilly and in winter I'm actually sitting at my table shivering.

I absolutely love this place and their staff! Last night I ordered takeout 15 mins before closing, but shortly after ordering my street was shut down. I called them to let them know and they held the food for an hour! I still wasn’t able to leave my house because of the street blockade and they called me to let me know they would leave it at the next door bar for me. I was so moved by how compassionate and accommodating they were! On top of all that, the vegan pho is BOMB and I crave it regularly!!
