The cutest gem of a place! With super nice employees. Would highly recommend for a quick bite. Very authentic.

I don't even know where to start.. first I ordered a Thai tea. it has chunks!! it wasn't properly made and powder everywhere. The Banh mi bread was stale the veggies weren't cut. the spring roll was okay mainly because the sauce CARRIED the whole dish. The service was also so trash the ladies at the front register never know the prices. No price signs anyways as well. No hair nets or hats even though they are around all the food. The space itself is actually alright.I don't even know where to start.. first I ordered a cup of Thai tea. it has blocks!! it was not made properly and the dough was everywhere. Bread was stale, vegetables were not cut. spring rolls were okay mainly because of the sauce BRING the whole dish. The service is also very trashy, the ladies at the front register never know the price. Anyway, no price tag. There were no hair nets or hats even though they were all surrounded by food. The space itself is really fine.

Imagine you walk into your grandma's house and her old lady perfume is attacking your nostrils causing you to gag. The tofu with pork stuffing was breathtaking. I almost got a stroke from how horrible that pork was. The food is old and tastes absolutely horrible. The pork stuffed tofu is by the worst save yourself if you don't want mutating genes. The chicken they have is also dogwater. What poor chicken died to be made into that horrible chicken leg. Service is terrible, they pick and choose who they want to serve edible food. I got the roasted pork about one pound and paid. Shortly after they speak in Vietnamese to another customer saying the roast pork is terrible and they wouldn't even sell it to them. If you're not in their clan, they make sure you never come back. How dare they say right in my face the pork is bad to another customer and sell it to me 3 minutes before. Do not ever come here as I will not. Save the shit and keep your dna safe by not coming here. It's actually just such bad food and service you'll be on the suicide hotline.

This food shop is not competitive compared to other nearby Vietnamese food shops. Some food items are overpriced. For example, a tiny portion of Vietnamese bean pudding (che dau) was almost double the price compared to other shops. Banh mi was sold at the same price, but it has much less meat and vegetables, and the pork was full of fat.This was my first time to the shop so I gave it a try and bought quite a few different food items. I noticed some red flags when I first came to the store but I decided to give them a benefits of doubt. For instance, even though it has a better parking area, better location, bigger store, and looks good inside, it has significantly fewer customers than a nearby shop where people often have to wait in a long line at the checkout. There were other red flags as well, but it is too long for me to say it here.After giving it a try, I feel like I just wasted my money. I don't think I will come back again. I prefer the other stores.

The food here is local fast and ready to go. The people who work here are always nice and provide great service. However the only thing I don't like here is the lack of respect the owner has for her workers. I always catch her yelling at them in front of everyone like they are children when I come in. Soon she won't have no one working for her if she keeps that going. If your going to open a business you need to treat your workers with respect so they can help your business thrive. I don't see it thriving here, I won't be coming back.

I heard this place has the best beef noodle soup so I decided to try it myself! I ordered beef noodle with a side of beef ball. I was surprised with the tenderness and deliciousness of the meat. Their broth is clear and not too salty.... It's a delicious soup that doesn't make me thirsty! The broth is definitely not generic and feels hearty. Will be back if I'm in the area

Food is so damn good it's gonna turned in to Như Lan Restaurant one day. It's just as delicious as I remembered. I wish I lived closer! I haven't visited it in a few years and it still managed to have the same great quality and hospitality. It's a few blocks away from the downtown area if you're looking for wholesome meals. We like to do a la carte style here.
