“First time stopping by despite living here for 5 years! Great food, very clean restaurant and extremely friendly owners. I got the pho dac biet and it was very filling- enough to share with my two kids. 10/10 would recommend and we will be back.“

“Best place ever! They literally made EVERYTHING themselves, they even use real fruit for their smoothies! The most amazing place ever!
We came and just sit and kept ordering one thing after another!
Highly recommend this place and has to give respect to the owners and his wife for their effect for making excellent food!“

“Definitely the food was AMAZING! I was half and half when I entered this restautant but I really wanted to try this egg pancake thing and it was the best decision.👍
Often when I crave for salads or fresh herbs, I try other-than-pho dishes. It was the perfect dish for today. The cook is older grandma who is experienced in Vietnamese food and I was able to feel this is local taste of Vietnam. Employee was kind and recommended me bone-broth Pho for next time. I will visit again!“

After Food was served the waiter never came back. ( to check if everything was ok, if we needed anything else, box to bring home leftovers, get/pay check, etc. )“

We stopped in for lunch. My daughter and I shared (D1) a wonton/dumpling and pork Ramen soup. The pork was so savory, and the broth was perfectly seasoned.
My son and husband shared fried rice and chicken. They cleaned their plates. You can tell they take great pride in their food.
Highly recommend!!!!“

They are so hardworking, kind, and genuine. You can really feel the care they put into what they do. It makes an already wonderful meal that much better. Such a lovely place with great food and even better people. I always feel amazing after eating here. Highly, highly recommend!!“

“I really like this pho place and come here quite often. In my opinion, it’s one of the best value-for-money pho spots in the area. The interior has a very classic, old-school Vietnamese vibe, which I really enjoy.

The staff are super friendly and welcoming, and the food is very filling for the price. The large pho portions are huge. My husband and I can barely finish one bowl, and there’s always a lot left.

The spring rolls are delicious, especially with the slightly sweet dipping sauce. The chicken is tender and flavorful, very authentic. Overall, a great spot and definitely worth supporting.“

“So good! Plenty of space to sit, not crowded for Friday dinner. We had the steak and brisket pho with a side of spring rolls. The rolls were perfect, just the right amount of filling and the dipping sauce wasn't overpowering. Our pho broth was aromatic, with both the brisket and steak tender and a little bite left to them. We had the large bowl, and it was only 13 dollars! We'll definitely be back!“

“Good pho, 3.5/5. Really enjoyed the broth flavor, pretty good fresh noodles, meat was a bit sub par extra chewy texture and fat around edges. Given the hefty price per bowl, and restaurant name, should improve quality of meat served.“

“Great Manu to choose from, great price too!“

“Great food and beautiful outdoor seating.“

“Great food..clean restaurant..definitely quick service“

“I come here almost daily because I am obsessed with their match Tres leches with matcha boba and egg pudding. It's a combination that lives in my taste buds memory. like the marriage between a matcha frappe with flan. At the family table came boba and a snow cap that easily translates to tantalizing flavors jumping for joy! Then the Bahn mi is packed with the perfect ratio of meat, picked carrots, cucumber, and JALAPEÑOS!!! I love a jalapeño that delivers and these always hit the mark. The fact that the ingredients are fresh and natural are major brownie points.“

“Good food & service. Robot caddy that delivers food to table was fun to watch 😋“

“Unexpectedly amazing - heard it was delicious, but then read some poor reviews, but went anyway. Ended up going twice in one week cause I liked it so much. Highly recommend eating in as the vibe is great, good drink menu and the food was even better fresh on the table. FAST too, if you're in a hurry. Favs are the Pad Thai and Pad See Ewe for me.“
