Slow service if your not white, over priced pho you can get better pho on the east side, they portion the amount of Sriracha and Hoison sauce you can have, $1.50 for sliced onion. If I knew that I would have brought my own.

The vegetarian banh mi is huge and delicious!

I am sick today after having Bun Bo Hue here, I suspected it is food poisoning.

Very good. But a bit pricey. Otherwise I would recommend

I’ve ordered the Chicken Pho here three times now, and while the flavor is great, I’ve noticed the portion size for the chicken (for takeout) is surprisingly small—only three strips. I kindly asked if portions are weighed because I was willing to pay for extra chicken, but the employee’s response was, ‘I don’t know, I just work here,’ which wasn’t very helpful.

Additionally, I requested egg noodles but received rice noodles instead (3rd time), so it’s worth double-checking your order before leaving to avoid mistakes. The food is good, but the service and attention to detail could use some improvement.

Great dishes with traditional flare and flavors. Amazing selection of bobas, teas, and smoothies. Inviting and friendly staff.

$20 bowl of pho, very little meat, average food, not worth it

The egg crepes was supposed to be very popular and famous. Didn't like it at all. Too oily, little bit of pork and shrimp, lots of bean sprout. Not very tasteful.

Banh mi sandwich - just like others. In fact, just so so.

Ice coffee - It's premade, you didn't have to drip and pour it in ice. Way too sweet. Flavor is Strong enough though.

Service - we requested 2 simple customizations, the waitress forgot both. Waitress asked what drinks do I want with the sandwich, I said I didn't know it comes with drink and order ice coffee, ended up cost me $5.

The place is nice and clean. Presentable but that's about it.

Frankly, for the quality and the price, not impressive.

I ordered a combination pho with some spring rolls for takeout. I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere of the restaurant, really nice decor and really nice waiters was greeted and helped right away. The pho broth was the winner here, it had very strong beef flavor that barely needed any add ons. I do feel like I got a lot less protein than most pho places I have been to but overall not bad for the price.

Vegetarian options: I saw a vegetarian section on their menu

Parking: Lots of parking due to the osh being closed

Wheelchair accessibility: I saw curb ramps and a wide sidewalk

The service outside is typical, but the kitchen needs to rearrange staff and improve their preparation process. They are extremely slow in serving, even with fewer than four tables. The long wait for food was disappointing.

Bun Bo Hue was tasty, but missing the pork blood and bone. The Bo Luc Lac didn't come with the tomato rice. Those 2 things caused the 4 stars rating. Otherwise it was a nice place. I will go back and try other dishes next time.

For a restaurant that doesn't even have much of a sign except big letters saying PHO and COFFEE on the windows.. Its a hidden gem among the Vietnamese restaurants in this area! It's interesting how the restaurant is laid out because it looks like it takes up two storefronts, complete with 2 doors. It was a little confusing to find the proper entrance but I think it's the one with a big high ceiling inside. There is outdoor seating and indoor seating with an interesting configuration. That did not mean that the owners of the place really decked the place out with Vietnamese art and pictures showing where they're from! They even have a little fountain inside. They also have a very extensive menu for this type of restaurant, particularly on the boba and coffee side (owing to its name)

The food is just amazing! I ordered the beef cube steaks for $19 and it arrived on a sizzling hot plate! Both the flavor of the beef as well as the Bell peppers, onions and garlic that went with it paired very well! Waiters came by often with lemon water.

I couldn't say the same for the spring rolls, even though they were hot, it felt like it was lacking substance in its filling and the dipping sauce didn't really help either...

The staff is very nice, and payment is very easy with tap to pay available. Overall, I like to come back to try more of the menu, but at these prices, it's getting into premium territory so be sparingly about it along with the tip.

Parking: Parking in the shade is very easy
