Good food and service, and the atmosphere is okay, but it was mostly empty. :(

Went in for lunch on a weekday, was greeted by a friendly woman. Upon ordering we saw that the drinking classes were dirty and had not been washed. Once our food came we saw that the limes that we had been given were rotten and discolored but still served. The bean sprouts were also starting to rot and get slimy. The spice levels really need to be evaluated. Way too spicy for what we ordered. I got chicken with my pho and it was dry and tasteless. I would say it was about a week old. Would not recommend or come back! DEFINITELY NEED TO IMPROVE!!!!!!

Food is always ready extremely fast and is very yummy! I’ve lived many places and had lots of pho in my life and theirs is one of the best I’ve had! Glad they are close by as we will be frequenting often!

I REALLY wanted to like this place, and was trying to support local, but $75 for 4 takeout meals that were mediocre at best, was wild to me. We picked up within 15 minutes of ordering, but our Pad Thai was so dry it was stuck together in a big clump. The bottoms of our styrofoam dishes were even completely warped. The sesame chicken had more tiny pieces of fried breading than chicken, and the fried rice was cold.I will say the flavor of our meals was good and the crab rangoons were very good, but I can pay half that price to eat at another local Asian place that has MUCH better food.Sadly, I can’t see us going back.

The Pho prices are similar to others in the metro area, but portion size is much smaller. They didn't ask about spice levels and our Pho was very mild with little flavor. In addition, it was only warm and ended up cold a few minutes into lunch. Service was adequate, but a painfully loud door alarm went off repeatedly disturbing any conversation.

Had a delicious bowl of pho this evening with the cold rain coming down outside and it warmed me right up! Service was extremely friendly and food came out very fast. I will be back.

You couldn't go wrong with any Thai place in the Metro. Unfortunately, that's not the case anymore. 3 strikes and this restaurant is out for me. The first time, it had been open for a month, and both of our orders were way too spicy at level 2 compared to others. I chalked it up to being new. A couple weeks ago, I gave it another shot and grabbed my wife some pad thai at spice level 2. It was almost inedible and the flavor was off. Last chance and the pho was OK, and my drunken noodles were unrecognizable. The noodles were absolute mush and the dish looked like a mess. The awful flavor reminded me of cheap gravy. The dumpster had a decent meal that night. I wanted to like this place. Farewell.

Asked for 4 out of 5 on spice and it was mild. Then they made the dry wings with a side of sweet and sour which was advertised to come as spicy wings. Main dish came with almost no meat in it.

Amazing Pad Thai A must try if you are looking for Thai in the northwest metro.

They need to seriously reevaluate their spice levels. way too hot to eat, and I only ordered level two. Mongolian beef had gristle in the meat.
