We were in the area shopping and decided to stop in. I had heard of this place before and it was highly recommended by Vietnamese co-workers as being authentic. They weren't wrong! The food came out so fast, and yes, it reminded me of my mom's cooking. The phô had beautiful, savory broth. Some places do too much star anise or cinnamon but here, it was just right 👌🏼The prices are super cheap and the portions are huge--typical Viet fashion. I was so excited about the food I forgot to take pictures.

Staff is not friendly and charged me more than what was originally told.

Pho broth was good. The lo mien tasted awesome! But the service sucks. The lady who took our order was rushing us to ordering. We never been there. It was our first time. Wasn't nice at all. When we were done, the little boy gaved our billed and to go boxes as we asked for. Put $10 tip on the table, took the bill over, paid with cash and told the lady that she can give the change to the little boy. Behind me, she put up $3 in the air, waved it and said just $3 to her worker. I turned and said to her that, that can be given to the little boy. I guess $3 didn't satisfy her giving it to that boy, so I took my $15 tip back and left with no tip on the table for their service. Worst experience ever just because $3 tip wasn't good enough for that boy to bring my bill and 1 togo box. Will not be a returning customer!

Food hasn’t been as good as it was years ago. Has gotten really expensive. The 1B is now $15.95 but food was pretty salty. They also over charged me by $2 on my credit card so be careful. I calculated before I left the tip on the table and tipped accordingly. Don’t appreciate the dishonesty. Probably won’t be back.

We shared several appetizers, all were very flavorful and delicious! The mild spice was perfect for me who doesn't like spicy, the spicy was great for my heat loving husband.

This place was disgusting. I would not recommend this place. Me and my friend went here to get pho and when we got it it was disgusting. They got a baby cockroach in my friends pho and on my pho there was a small little pink substance. It was not meat as it would not turn brown after being in the hot soup like the rest of the meat. They made us pay for the food when we said we are gonna go somewhere else. They kept trying to force us to order a new one but after that there was no reordering from the disgusting insanitize place. Very nasty place.

You guys aren’t going to want to eat here anymore. I found a small cockroach in my PHO. And we told the waitress and she proceeds to make us pay for our food, which is so ironic. We didn’t want to cause a scene so we paid and left.

The food is always great here. What I don’t appreciate is the fact that they decided to add an extra $10 tip on my card/receipt after i left without my acknowledgment. Im just now seeing the total of the charge on my transaction history and I’m shocked they would even do that. It comes off as very dishonest and shady.

This place is ripping people off! I ordered 2 steam dumplings and they are 6.50 each. Okay . When I get the bill it’s for 15.26 I’m like wait a minute something off. I asked the lady to give me the receipt . She give me one without the break down. I’m like no give me the proper receipt. When I see the break down a magical 90 cents appears and 50 cents for take out. I’m like well that explains why it’s 15. No one could tell me why they charged me 90 extra cents . Rip off . They try to scam people. If you do this to X amount of customers a day it adds up to 100s of thousands extra a month. Avoid at all costs
Great food and quick service. One of my favorite places for pho.
