The servers can be rude at times. Probably because they are over worked, and under staffed when busy. Not the customers fault. The food is pretty good, but their Thai tea sucks. Something about the Thai tea flavor is off, and different from what I'm used to, and I've had it at lot of different places.

Not at all a good restaurant. Rude staff. Frozen spring rolls..food was edible but not at all good. I will never be back. Don't waste your money or time here.

An awful experience overall. I was ignored repeatedly and the food served was mediocre. Everyone working seemed to have a scowl on their face and every employee was rude to me. Take my advice and go somewhere else.

Vermicelli dish with grilled shrimp.

Service below average.
Restaurant is completely sub standard.

This place can see some remodeling after a few decades but the food is always the best and I still drive an hour to check them out most weekends.

Please DO NOT rely on all of these 4-star reviews. I am NOT able to recommend any of the foods here. I'm so sorry.

Rude waiter, sub par food, no effort. Skip it

We moved tables after the Hoisin table sauce bottle exploded (for no apparent reason, maybe the sun or over filling) & splattered across the ceiling and on my nephews. Could have taken someone’s eye out & not even a discount or concession was offered. Even after pops jokingly asked. Never going back.

I like coming here good food the only thing that I don’t like is that the server’s are always in the hurry for you to order: You barley sat down and look at the menu for 5 minutes and the waiter is asking you if you’re ready to order. Like hello I just sat down give me a few minutes so I can decide what to order.

MORGUE VIBE ! My wife and I were out on our Sunday bike ride to the downtown area. LUNCH TIME ! A couple of places where we usually eat proved unsuitable on the day so we started riding home at around 2pm. AND THEN ! As we passed In-N-Out Burger near the freeway overpass I remembered this Vietnamese joint that my wife thought might be worth a try one day. I suggested we have lunch here before we ride up the big hill to home...my wife agreed ! After parking our eBikes on the vacant back patio / front patio ( hard to tell ) I headed inside for a look and a menu. NOT IDEAL ! Dark and dingy came into my mind first....and it was almost empty. I asked a server for a menu and took it outside to show my wife. We are more than familiar with Vietnamese food and the menu had the usual suspects. It was the quality I was more worried about. In the end we decided to give it a go. My wife ordered 2 x Number 50's....Grilled Shrimp, Pork Vermicelli & Eggroll. DEFINITELY NOT A CHEERY PLACE ! The staff walked around like zombies and made no effort to be friendly to us. Even though the ratings on Google Maps and Yelp were okay I would say this joint has been running on fumes for years. Our lunch order arrived pretty fast and looked okay. BELOW AVERAGE ! I ate the 2 shrimp in my bowl and most of the chewy flavorless pork belly. Surprisingly more than a few people started to show up for dine-in or pickups. GIVE THIS PLACE A MISS IF YOU WANT QUALITY FOOD !

So I walk in and it seems to be a mom and a dad and possibly your uncle and aunt that worked there staring at me an odd silence for about 20 seconds and then finally one of them decided to greet me with pick up not are you here for pick up? How may I help you just pick up I said no I would like to order a sandwich pork sandwich. The gentleman responded what kind of sandwich, but decided to yell it then I repeated myself pork, please. He then went to the cash register and put out his hand did not say anything but put out his hand referring to my card. I don’t know if it’s a language barrier or they feel as if they should just treat people like scum, but I felt very insulted. He did not tell me how much the sandwich was. He just went to charge the card. I stopped him and asked him how much is the sandwich and then he told me eight dollar. I said OK. He ran the card and I sat down and waited for my sandwich. He said it would take about 10 minutes I waited for about five minutes and my sandwich arrived instead of the gentleman handing the sandwich to me. He decided to place it on the opposite side of the room and said your sandwich is over there. I felt very disrespected and I thought that was very rude that he could not just hand me the sandwich. The customer service here was very sad. I do not recommend going into this restaurant due to the customer service lacking skill
