Pretty decent food in a convenient location. I was visiting one of the shops on arcade and did not notice this restaurant was here. It was kind of hidden. I think they need a sign on the sidewalk or something like that. But they had great service and good pho. The atmosphere was a chill vibe and it was kind of quiet. In my opinion the egg rolls and the beef Pho is a good combination

The best pho on the east side, hands down. The place is a little divey but it wouldn't be authentic good if it looked like Manny's steakhouse. The young hosts and waiters are lacking service skills but the owner is always good to us when we go.

Neatness/0We got there sat down, one of the high chair they have still had previous customer food all stuck onto it, the receptionist/waiter made no effort on cleaning it, we had to look for a clean highchair ourself.Some of the tables were not fully clean from previous 0We order a bowl of pho and the meat ball seems like it is ground beef that they have made into ball and boil into meat ball it was extra large which is alright but it being ground beef it's got a weird texture to itI do not recommend this place

I came in on a Saturday and my friend & I happened to be the only one dining. The food came out super fast but my grill pork meat had a weird taste and the rice was soggy. I had 3 bites and left.

Stopped in for a couple of Bhan Mi sandwiches for lunch. One of the best Bhan Mi I've ever tasted. Just delicious. Nice ladies working the counter too.

Very good Pho and Bahn Mi. We were happy to find them open for an early lunch on July 4th. Friendly service in a clean, modern space. This was a back-up option for us after finding our first choice closed for the holiday, but we're glad we found it and we'll be back!Vegetarian options: Tofu Bahn mi and vegetarian spring rollsParking: Small parking lot just north of the building

We dropped in for a late lunch this past Sunday. The new location is spacious and pleasant with spare and attractive decoration. Service was prompt and polite. The food was indifferent: chicken fried rice and chicken lo mein. The noodles were underdone to my taste and I suspect had come from a box of Creamettes vermicelli. The chicken fried rice also underperformed; just satisfactory. Sesame oil might have helped. The pho and other dishes might be as fantastic as some say, but these items need work.

Nice and clean inside the restaurant. Good tasting food. Had the bun Bo hue. They use thin noodles which is not the right noodles for this dish.

Owners can at least greet and smile? Otherwise, Not a bad place for a fresh bowl of pho on the east side.

Cute space and decent food! Highly recommend the cream cheese wontons and pho. The fried rice wasn't bad but it was a bit black pepper heavy which I didn't like. I did wish the service was a bit quicker/attentive.
