The staff was friendly and attentive. The restaurant was clean, nice, and welcoming. Our food did not take long to arrive, and it was made fresh. We (party of 4) enjoyed eating there greatly and plan to do so again tomorrow.

Found hidden place looking for something homemade and fresh. Was NOT disappointed in pho broth. Egg rolls where perfect.

Bbq pork Spring rolls were great. The bun bo hue was nice and spicy! Broth was a bit fatty but good and spicy :)

I am Vietnamese and I have to say it is the best Banh mi so far in Sacramento. 10/10.

Single handedly the absolute worst pho I have ever consumed. The broth tasted terrible. I have never in my life wanted to untaste something so bad. I honestly don’t know how you can sell something with such bad quality. This is the first time I have ever left a review but I felt compelled to. I wouldn’t eat this even if I had no tongue to taste. Waste of money.

This is by far one of the best Vietnamese spots in the area. Amazing food and great atmosphere. You can taste the quality in the broth and noodles. The appetizers were also very delicious. Highly recommended!

Had the pork Bahn Mi and a beef Pho. The bahn mi was great, a light toast on the bread and delicious pork and veggies. A little light on the cilantro but overall still great.The Pho though left a lot to be desired. It’s just needs…more. More veggies and especially some more beef, ours only had 3 slices.

I would try their bahn mi it’s very good. Their pho broth taste closer to a minute made pho. If you want to try their best dish, try their bahn mi. If you like pho, have it somewhere else.

Great music, and service! But what blew me away is the best Bahn Mi sandwich I have ever had. The bun was really fresh and I had an explosion of flavors in my mouth!

Really great pho. Super great staff. The owner is really friendly, down to earth and genuinely interested in sharing his family’s authentic flavor.

This place is clean, and the atmosphere is legit. I can hang out here for a couple of hours before leaving.The service was great.Now, onto the food. If I ate with my eyes, I'd be full and content. The plating looked good and delicious. But I'm sad to say that this is all I could mention.I had the combination beef pho and added the rib bone for $5. It's quite expensive for a bone, but I thought it was worth the experience.My wife bought the chicken pho.Upon receiving my bowl, my eyes widened, and my mouth started to water. The first thing you should ever do with pho is taste the broth and then add your personal flavors. Upon tasting the broth, I was shocked at how sweet and bland it was. It tasted like hot water with a pinch of salt and a ton of rock sugar and zero aromatics. This broth was disgusting. Fast forward, same with chicken pho. My wife and I didn't eat it.We decided to keep it to ourselves and ordered a charboiled pork bahn-mi and egg rolls. Another tab, and another disappointment. The egg rolls were.... too salty and lacked any other flavor.The bahn-mi, on the other hand, was good. Although there was no patay, the vietnamese Mayo was good by itself with the normal ingredients.Oh, my wife had the Thai tea too. This drink was also a hard pass. My coke was the best tasting thing in this restaurant.Down $75 and I'm still hungry, looking for food. This place to me, is a hard pass for anyone looking for good pho.Posted 4/5/24

Delicious, the pho was very flavorful, you can see it in the color of the broth, big spring rolls, crisp bread for the banh mi and great price. I asked if the sauce for the spring rolls was gluten free and they helped me find a sauce that was!
