I only come here for the Pho. The broth is not salty but savory. That's good because other Pho restaurants have you drinking 5 cups of water afterwards. portion size is mid with a few slices of meat and couple meatballs. The portion size will not satisfy a normal adult. I can't say that it's worth it to drop $18 and not be full. It is enough to satisfy the taste buds though.

I had an excellent meal here! The star was the steak pho—the broth was incredibly flavorful and rich. I also tried the vermicelli bowl, which was fresh and tasty. Don't miss their Vietnamese coffee; it's strong, sweet, and the perfect finish to the meal. The portions are good size, making it a fantastic value. I would definitely recommend this spot and will be back soon!

The portions were good, the price a little high ($15 for 7 pieces of fried wings) but the food is good. We had the combo pho the broth was clean, light, and tasty. The fried chicken with house spicy sauce was flavorful and crispy. We also ordered the shrimp summer roll which was lightly wrapped so it almost fell apart while eating and the dipping sauce had chunks of peanuts in it.
The service was great with a friendly attitude. It's a small space so they are able to frequently check on their patrons and refill water in a timely manner.
The atmosphere was simple. Not a big place for crowds, mellow music was playing at a comfortable level that talking at you table was manageable and you didn't overhear neighbors or have to shout to talk to each other.
Overall, this was our first time and it wasn't disappointing. If the opportunity comes, we would eat here again.

My first time trying this Vietnamese restaurant. I went during off hours, so plenty of parking and I was the only customer.

The menu is extensive typical of a Vietnamese restaurant, but I am here to try the Pho. The broth is very light, but beefy. Not too sweet. But its missing the essence of the spices, like the cinnamon, star anise, cloves, coriander seeds, cardamom and fennel. Also the smokiness of the onions and ginger. I just prefer my pho broth to be heavier on the spices. But I still enjoyed it. The rice noodles was perfect, and the meat toppings is a little on the stingy side. Also only one size bowl.

I also tried the Summer Rolls with BBQ Pork. It was just average to me. Service was good, attentive and refilled my water when needed. Came to check on me a couple of time. My Mom called me while eating and I ended up ordering the Chicken Pho for take out for my Mom.

They did get busier after I sat down with mostly take out orders.

I will definitely come back again. I like the convenience of satisfying my Pho cravings and I don't have to drive to downtown/Chinatown.

Fantastic little Vietnamese place. Over multiple visits I tried the pho, vermicelli noodles, banh mi, and everything was great. The service is excellent and the owner is extremely generous and kind. Highly recommend stopping in for a bite!

It was okay. I was disappointed with the meat inside of the sandwich :( .. There was very little meat and most of it were fatty pieces too. The sandwiches on the other tables were huge.
I should've just ordered the pho.
