Nothing beats a hot bowl of pho after being up on the mountains all day. I got the rare beef and tripe in beef broth. No complaints. Ingredients are fresh. Portions are fair. There is no small or large option. Prices are a tad higher than the Bay Area. They also serve some basic Chinese and Thai dishes. I didn't try them so I can't say how they area. Seating can get cramped fast esp during peak time. I recommend coming early or ordering take out. Yum!

We wanted something hot because of the weather. Family loves pho, so we decided to try this place. The place is small and they don't have help like most restaurants. The waited was 30 minutes. We ordered the vegetarian pho, the P1, and the p4 on the menu. I was impressed that the broth had flavor. The size of the bowl was perfect, not to big or not to small. The family was happy with their pho, and the price was okay.

Please pay attention to your credit card statement if you pay this restaurant by credit card. They will amend your gratuity, and total is more then the original amount you should be paying. I have disputed and provide a copy of the original receipt to the credit card company. If you don't have the habit to keep all the receipt and check off with your statement, then it's your own loss.

Pho is good, price ok but only provide 1 size about middle size. Rice is also good too.

Came here after a long day of snow activities ready for some warm pho and a quality meal with friends. We entered the line after a group of 5 who were seated almost immediately and then we were seated at a table for two. We told the host, a man wearing a grey vest with a Calvin Klein tattoo, that we were expecting 2 more people to join us and he said there would be absolutely no way. He said the restaurant closes at 8 and after 7:30 it is strictly "To-Go" orders only. He further explained by saying that he had an 8 top (party) waiting and then after them, 4 more people and then another group of 2, so there would be "no possibility". We cancelled with our two other friends but stayed since we had already ordered our drinks and been seated. We were enjoying our pho when I checked the time to see it was 7:33 because we saw a group approaching. The group entered and the same host asked "for here or to go?" And proceeded to seat them at a table to our left. We were shocked!! Shortly after, another group came in and he seated them as well! It was 7:45 by this time. At 8 PM a party of two got seated directly behind us and the same man told them "just so you know we close in 20 minutes". Not only did he tell us to stop our two friends from joining us when we were seated at 7:05, but he also said no dining in was allowed after 7:30 AND that they close at 8! These were all lies, and even here on Yelp and on Google it says the restaurant closes at 8:30!! We couldn't help but feel discriminated against by his odd lying and inconsistency because why did he treat us, the only two women of color in the place, this way? There seem to be multiple complaints about his service and I strongly advise anyone considering coming to be prepared for this. The pho here wasn't good enough to have to deal with feeling targeted. I likely won't return here.

Walked in and they sat us down. Didn't give us any Menu, then just skipped us and started taking orders from guest that arrived after us. We asked him and he was rude and said they were busy. Place is a small shop, your half brain is just slow and can't keep track of who came in first. Screw this place. We walked out...

Overcooked Pho noodles and the broth is nothing special. Save your money and go get McDonald's instead. Wait until you get back into Sacramento to eat pho. The beef meat balls in my pho were spoiled (smelly, slimey) and the waiter with the "CK Calvin Klein" tattoo on his arm had the audacity to say this to me when I informed him about it: "Everyone else ordered the same dish and no one said anything about the meatballs" as if he didn't believe me. No apology at all. He needs to understand when something like this happens, it's important to acknowledge the customer and their concerns. Food and service is well below average here.

They deserve at least 4.0. Fresh ingredients and good prices. The broth is flavorful, slightly salty but I didn’t mind. Give it a try, haven’t found a better one around the lake yet.

The food had great flavor and the spring rolls were awesome!! Unfortunately they were short staffed but even with that they got my food out fast and were very sweet!! My order was perfectly made!!

Waited over 20 mins for party of 9 which isnt too bad but the food is definitely not worth waiting for. Soup is super bland. Taste like I'm eating hot water and noodles. Theres no beef or beef bone flavor at all in the pho. Told the waiter and they didn't do anything about it. Will not return.
While in Lake Tahoe, this was our favorite place to eat! Not only was it affordable compared to the rest of South Lake. But it was so damn good! I recommend the grilled pork pho, combo fried rice, and the combo chow main. Staff was super nice and awsome too

This place has gotten a lot better but I still get an upset stomach hours later, even after avoiding the pho.Food is better, service is better, but still room to grow.

Pho was on par with some of the best pho places I've been to. And I'm surrounded by pho restaurants at home (East San Jose). I'll be sure to come here again next Tahoe trip.

Delicious, prompt and friendly service. Was in Tahoe on a cold rainy day a few weeks back and the hubbs and I wanted pho to warm up. Their vegetable pho hit the spot! I want to drive back just to have it again.
