I don't know if the waitress meant to do this, but we asked for to go utensils and she brings them and places all the utensils on the table with no napkin underneath it. I don't know if manners are taught to that particular waitress, but they should learn some manners. If they do this in front of you, could you imagine what they do with their food in the kitchen.

Got there right when they opened on a Wednesday at 10am and the pho soup was fresh and rich. I got a medium bowl of the #3 beef noodle soup with tripe and it was beyond delicious. It hit me to my soul! So satisfying and healthy! I cleaned my bowl and drank every last drop of that broth. The staff was all male, so I didn't experience the hovering lady that some previous reviews have mentioned. I was given my soup and left completely alone, not rushed to pay. I, of, course, left a tip even though nobody asked. I enjoyed a peaceful, quiet meal.

The food here is really good and quick service! Clean food area. Ken the owner is hilarious and has great professionalism!!! I love their Coffee as an ending to my delicious meal!!!

The food is so good. Everytime we are in town, we always try to make it there. ?Food: 5/5

Still just 'alright'. Service is better than previous visits, but the food is still mediocre - spring rolls didn't seem to have any mint, BBQ pork was overcooked and dried out, and the prices are a bit steep compared to other places. There are other places that are better, but if I'm desperate, this still remains an option.

Authentic food and boba is the best! Customer service is great! The best part is the quality never changed since the time of 2007.

Honestly not sure what's so terrible about this place, but we've gotten takeout from here plenty of times with family friends who live nearby and it seems good to me. Service is fast, they do the basics well (we're usually getting beef pho and grilled shrimp and beef on vermicelli for kids, and the pork chop / egg / shrimp cake rice plate which is tasty), and service has been reliable the times we've ordered out of there. Menu is nothing unusual, it pretty much is your table stakes Vietnamese menu so don't expect anything special to write home about, but it's been a decent option in the area and hasn't failed us yet.

Bánh Xèo - Crispy Crepe The cashier asked me to get inside and sit wherever I want. But for a while nobody gave me the menu, I went to find it by myself. I ordered Bánh Xèo, it tasted ok, crispy outside but the inside the flour is not really cooked. When I almost finished it, I found a piece of plastic.

Excellent quality, there’s nothing sub par about this place. You get large portions lots of noodles tons of meat and the flavor of the broth is better than most. Some are about the toppings, some are about the broth, and the meat portions but this place has a good balance of everything. I’ve been going here for years and they’re consistently on point. So if you got a hankering for pho this is the spot.

No crab meat in the bun rieu but their broth recipe is still best flavor among the Vietnamese places I’ve eaten all these years. Pork chop rice plate is my kid’s usual order. Don’t come here expecting great table service. Come in, eat, and pay the owner sitting at the register on your way out.
I usually come here because the food is descent. The issue I have is that they don't have good customer service - no greeting, no happy expressions, take orders of other people who come in after you. But this time, the older boss man decided to give himself a 15% tip and no receipt. Be careful when he's ringing you up.

It may be hard for me to write a detailed review for a pho spot since I really cannot discern much difference between bowls of pho. That being said we have been here two times recently and had hot good soup with efficient-bordering on too efficient service. The process of paying is a bit different...go to the register with the table number to square up. If this is stated somewhere I have not seen it. The parking lot here is undersized so at prime time there is some waiting and luck involved.

We did take out and was thoroughly disappointed. Ordered the chicken pho and beef pho , the soup was real bad and meat looked disgusting. Hard pass. Don't do take out. And not recommend

They force you to tip.Even word "tip"showing up on the receipt.Its ok but perhaps maybe with a little smile & not frowning from the cashier part.
