Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the food. The rice tasted like it had been cooked a long time ago — it was dry and even slightly crunchy. The spring rolls were also quite dry, and the dipping sauce had an unpleasant flavor. The only highlight of the meal was the Thai iced tea, which was delicious and refreshing.

7th Time, Last Time
It's often said that you can't truly judge a restaurant until you've been there multiple times. However, my recent experiences here, particularly my 7th visit, have made it clear that sometimes it's better to trust your instincts earlier. Unfortunately, this will be my last time dining at this establishment.
Service
The service has been consistently disappointing, and it's hard to ignore it any longer. The restaurant opens at 5:00 PM for its second shift, and for the last three visits, the host has greeted us with an unmistakably negative attitude.
From eye-rolls to muttered "ugh"s under her breath, it's clear she isn't too thrilled to see us or to be working there.
On a recent visit, we arrived at 6:00 PM, and the restaurant was empty. The host, however, proceeded to seat us at two of the least desirable tables in the place--awkwardly located and offering poor views. (She literally only gave us 2 option tables) I've always preferred sitting next to my significant other, and for the past five visits, we've consistently chosen a specific table. It's not an unreasonable request, especially when the restaurant is nearly empty, yet every time ! politely ask for that table, the host acts frustrated.

What makes it even worse is her behavior when I point out the table we've always sat at. Instead of simply accommodating our request, she became visibly annoyed, complaining about an impending "rush hour" and the likelihood of a large party. Mind you, this was all happening in an empty restaurant, and we were the only ones there. It felt like we were being punished for asking for a small comfort--a simple request that should have been a non-issue.
Overall Atmosphere
Despite the charming ambiance of the restaurant, it's difficult to overlook the growing discomfort with the service.
When the staff's attitude becomes so off-putting, it detracts from everything else. What should be a relaxing evening out for us has now turned into a frustrating experience. A warm greeting, a friendly attitude, and accommodating service go a long way in creating a memorable dining experience.
Unfortunately, this place has lost that spark, and it's hard to justify returning for what is supposed to be an enjoyable night out.
If you're looking for a place with good food and a pleasant experience, I would suggest looking elsewhere. The food, while tasty, isn't enough to make up for the consistently poor service. For me, after seven visits, it's clear that this restaurant just doesn't value its customers enough to make it worth coming back.

I used to love this place—the pho is seriously amazing. I kept coming back just for that. But honestly, I’ve had enough of the attitude that comes with it.

There’s one chunky girl working here who acts like being nice is physically painful. Every time we come in, she looks irritated, rolls her eyes when we choose to sit together, and storms off like we just ruined her day. Meanwhile, other people get VIP treatment—smiles, friendly service, the whole deal. It’s clearly not about being busy, it’s just about who she wants to be nice to.

I don’t need a red carpet, but I also don’t need to be treated like a burden just because I want to eat good pho with my people.

Food: 10/10
Service: Straight-up disrespectful

I’m out. Plenty of other spots with great pho and decent human beings.

Probably one of the best pho I’ve had. Spring roll was the cherry on top. Our waitress was amazing, down to earth staff, great food. All in all loved it.
