I got the beef pho. It was good, I just wish it came a lot more hot, temperature wise. Service was 10/10. Everyone was very nice.

Excellent spicy beef noodle soup and Vietnamese chicken sandwich. The soup is flavorful and the beef is good quality. The bread is warm, soft, and crunchy. All ingredients are good quality.

I went here after work! I was famished! I was so happy w how cute their decorations are! The music was lovely! Sauces chili oil so good! And i cant believe they have Banh Khot! As its a bit labor intensive. Ive only had it at Tayho. Well this is their mamas recipe! Its a crispy coconut crepe w shrimp. They gave me fancy butter lettuce shiso and mint wraps for each one! I feel so pampered! Its now my favorite order! Noodle soup too is perfect for winter rainy days. Parking is a lot and super convenient location! Thx so much for feeding this famished lady. ?

It was really good! The food was delicious and the service was fast and friendly. The restaurant was very echoey, but the food mostly made up for that

Delicious food deserving of more recognition. Some of the best bánh mì and fusion-based dishes in this part of the Berkeley/Oakland border.

Not enough meat! We had the grilled BEEF (Where's the beef?) Vietnamese sandwiches / banh mi, with hardly any meat on them, and boba smoothies, that were small but good.
They have a giant picture sign in their parking lot that shows a sandwich overflowing with meat and vegetable ingredients but that wasn't the case in reality.
Not only was there hardly any meat but they didn't even try to overflow it with extra vegetable toppings like sliced carrots, daikon or peppers to cover up the lack of meat.
The few pieces of meat in the sandwich did actually taste good and the sandwich bread was good too. But when you buy a beef sandwich you expect more meat inside than the sandwiches we got. Maybe it was just a bad or inexperienced cook, we will try it one more time and report back with an edit of this review if they have improved this lack of meat problem. (People return repeatedlyir to restaurants for the good food if those restaurants skimp on their
food customers won't return, even if everything else in the restaurant is perfect.)
The server did a good job and was polite so I do not blame her.
The interior seating area of the restaurant seemed clean but I did notice people talking and laughing at other tables seemed very loud and I think it was because most of the walls are bare and there's nothing on the floor to absorb the sound. But that is very minor compared to ordering something with meat and getting only a few pieces. It's just something to be aware if you notice it's crowded, know it's not going to be quiet inside.
I actually want this restaurant to succeed so maybe people eating there should just get the pho or try something else until their sandwiches meat servings improve.
They do have a large parking lot if you're looking for lots of off street parking.
I do hope they can solve this issue and I can return to edit this review with the good news.

Nice menu selection with great deals on combo meals. The dry noodle was excellent, good flavor and lots of toppings. I am weird and like 2 bowls of soup for my dry noodle. One bowl to dump in the noodles and one for sipping. I got charged $4 for the extra soup, a bit on the high side for broth, but overall still good value for quality.

The spring rolls were crunchy and fresh. The ginger chicken was succulent and flavorful. Waiters and even our fellow diners were kind and attentive. The food is the draw — be prepared for really bright lights.

We ordered pho and vermicelli bowls, and ate in the restaurant. our food was five stars! It took a long time for the vermicelli bowls, but they were worth the wait. Attractively plated, the proteins were freshly made, and all tasted great. The restaurant is bare bones but what we expected; the tables could use a good washing down as they are sticky. In any case, we highly recommend this one!
