I just recently discovered Pho soup and Roots was recommended to me by a co-worker since I told them I wanted to get some good soup for my cold. I just love this place and glad my first experience with Pho was here. I love the broth that comes with the Pho it's so tasty, wish I could buy it by the buckets! I've only done order pickup.
Delicious food, a modern twist on Vietnamese cuisine. We tried three different kinds of meat dishes, and all three were outstanding—tender, juicy meat, flavourful sauce, and good-sized portions.
The soup was underwhelming, but it may have been meant to be spiced up to taste with sauces available on each table. The dinner was very affordable (about $25/pp), which hasn't happened lately anywhere else. Overall, it was a great experience.

Update to highly recommended. Visited again and exceeded expectations. Softshell crab salad was crispy but melt in the mouth soft. A simple fried chicken rice had a light crispy skin and juicy inside. A touch of sweet and sour sauce on the chicken was spot on. Lemongrass beef and shrimp vermicelli bowl has flavorful but surprisingly not sweet. Even the fish sauce that came with the chicken rice has more umami and less sweet than the usual stuff.
