I went to their Grand Opening + 1 Day. Was biking along and thought I might drop in. I was pleasantly surprised. It was also previously a Pho restaurant under a different owner, and I have been there before. The previous establishment didn't accept cards (cash only) which was a major drawback for me. They also improved the decor and the staff seem appears much more friendly. I tried a rice plate and will go back for actual pho next time.
Service is insanely fast. Some people say the staff are rude but I like the quietness of it, idk, I think they just spare the BS. Really
Good pho

Best Pho in Oakland. I've tried them all and although some are close ... Pho Hoa Lao is delicious.
