Nothing worse than eating from a bad restaurant. We ordered the combination pho. It came out nicely and the portion looked ok. BUT the taste was way under authentic and full of artificial/msg flavor. You should know that the real pho broth cannot be that clear looking!!! Never come back. Thanks!

This place is a hidden gem! So surprised not a lot of people know about it. I've gone here a few times. Even with a large group of 20 people, they were easily able to accommodate us all and bring food and drinks out very timely. I was able to try the Hu Tieu kho (dry noodle) with the flat noodles this time. This elevates the dish so much. Hope you're lucky enough to try it before the runs out.

The World class service here is excellent. Great family atmosphere and good vibes. Very spacious and of course the food is excellent. I came in today it was perfect evening for Soup AOTA did not disappoint. If your out of town perfect place to bring the family!

All dishes we tried were solid. Each dish had great flavor. Only complaint is that the portions are on the small side, but would definitely go back.

I came here last night for the very first time with my nephews, and I have to say it was very satisfying! I am very picky when it comes to my Vietnamese food, but this spot just hit the spot! The service was on point, we didn't even have to ask for more water she just kept bringing us some when saw we were running low. If you love Vietnamese music like I do then you'll love their playlist as well haha.

We got the catfish hot pot to share between two people ($55). Soup was good an plentiful, but I feel like there could have been more food. There was a decent portion of catfish, but I feel like they could have filled up more on veggies. There was only 6 slices of tomatoes, a large handful of beansprouts and some okra and some other crunchy green veggies. It also comes with some rice noodles, which isn't my favorite type of noodle (not their fault). The broth was a nice sweet and sour flavor which was perfect for a cold night. Overall, it was good, but it costed over $70 with tax and tip and we left feeling satisfied, but not full.

Food is good and service was fast. This place felt very homey and we loved the options. The workers were so sweet to my daughter and I love when the staff interacts with us in a more informal, fun way.

Had a great time here with a few of my friends. We had the quail, clam (both Thai and basil), soy sauce fried chicken, hot pot, hu tieu kho, tea drinks, and clay pot catfish... Everything was perfectly prepared and brought out in the order that we requested. Flavor was on point and sauces/soups were sufficient for our group of 8.Parking, seating, and restrooms were easy access with little to no effort or excessive waits. Note that the restaurant is right next to a Kumon learning center.The only *potential* hesitation or gripe I can think of --especially for my non-Vietnamese brethren -- is that English is not the staff's first language, at least from my own experiences and observations. This was not an issue for me. Their menus have photos, dish names are translated to English, and each line item is coded by letter+number, which is easily understood by your server. If you try to order something custom or off-menu and the staff appears confused, you're on your own.Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I'd do it again.I'll be back. Parking: Restaurant is in a business plaza, so there is a lot of parking. If it happens to be busy, there is neighborhood street parking nearby.

Today was a very sad day. An old friend of ours had passed away leaving his only brother of three siblings left amongst them. After the funeral a friend and I decided to get lunch. Both to continue hanging out after the funeral had ended, and also because his birthday was this past week and I wanted celebrate with him. He chose this place which was about 4 and 1/2 mi from the funeral home. It is a Vietnamese restaurant that he insisted was a great spot. When we got inside and got our menus, he was gushing over the various options the restaurant offered. And admittedly it was quite diverse and looked really good. Dishes that were what I would consider on the higher end of Vietnamese restaurants relative to your typical noodle house. I ordered the seafood Hu Tieu with the clear noodles and he ordered the version that was dry. That means that mine came in a soup broth, where his came with the broth on the side with a large ted bone in it. One of the things I'll note outright was that their soups were priced lower than pretty much anywhere else. I've gone to eat soup. Bulls were between 14 and $15 were typically I see Vietnamese noodle soups going for 17 to $18 on average. When the food came out I was further impressed by the amount of ingredients they included in the soup. For instance, if there's ever shrimp in a noodle soup, you typically get one to two. This bowl of soup had three. It also had two and a half meatballs, four pieces of squid, and was typically generous all around, including the amount of noodles that was in the bowl. The broth was yummy, and the portion was significant. We also had some Heineken in a bottle, because when you eat out of Vietnamese restaurant, the Vietnamese beer choice has to be Heineken. The venue wasn't very crowded, and the decor was relatively modern. Service was nothing to write home about, but it was prompt and good. Based on how good the soup I had was, I definitely would come back and try other menu items. I'm told that the Bo Luc Lac here is quite good, and given how reasonable their prices are, I want to give it a try at some point. I recommend this place based on the one item I ordered. Maybe order exactly what I had and see if my taste matches yours, or try something else on their menu and let me know what I should try next.

We were a big party but there was only one other group. I ordered the spring rolls with shrimp and the fried squid rings, typical combination Pho, and the clay pot fish. The pho was just ok. The broth was not as tasty as the other pho places around here, and the meat was very little. I expected more. Sorry to say. The claypot fish was not good. It definitely didn't look like the previous posted pictures online. Maybe i ordered the wrong thing at this restaurant. The appetizers were the best items we ordered. Our food was served almost one by one. They were probably understaffed?

Went here for my birthday lunch with bestie and she decided to treat me instead. Thanks Bestie!! The place is clean and the staff are nice. This is a Vietnamese restaurant. We ordered 2 types of snails. The tiny one was cooked with coconut milk and boy it's delicious! There's a special way to take out the meat or else you will have a hard time getting it out . The big snail (not in the picture ) was delicious also with sweet and sour from tamarin paste. The mango salad is superb. Fresh and crunchy. The main entree which was seafood hotpot was delicious but a bit too salty for us and the staff add more broth and it worked but still too salty for my liking. There're plenty parking spaces so it's a plus.
