I ordered Taiwanese noodles with shrimp to go. Absolutely delectable!! I added Thai chili oil for a Lil heat!!! I usually order Pho, I wanted something different. Love this food, very inexpensive.

We have been here many times. It is located inside of Pan Asia, our favorite store in town and in our opinion it puts out some of the very best Asian food in St. Louis. Mostly Chinese but with pho too. Start with sweet BBQ pork and crispy roasted ducks hanging there and I am hooked (great for take out, whole or half). But the other dishes this bistro turns out are bursting with flavor and well priced. We usually eat there but they do a lot of take out. Beef cumin is our favorite dish with seasoned dry beef pieces on a bed of cilantro. Tres bon! Also Ma Po Tofu (silken tofu cubes in a pork or seafood sauce), beef chow fun and the best fried rice I can find in town (with bits of that sweet BBQ pork if you choose that one, sprouts and more). Garlic eggplant is very special too (spicy but sweet at the same time). Most (but not all for sure) dishes are on the spicy Szechuan side of things but not overdone at all. There are many soup and pho bowls, including one I love with tender melt in your mouth short ribs! Many different kinds of noodles as well. Dan Dan Noodles is a fav with its Szechuan peppercorns based sauce, and hard to find these days but addicting! We also like the egg noodles which are those thin noodles served at dim sum places, onions, sprouts and choice of protein. The chow fun noodles are locally made and great. Anything else they need is right there in the store and very fresh. This is not a fancy place but feels like some sort of street cafe as you sit and watch the world of shoppers go by. Lots of dishes we havent tried yet so we will continue to come here all the time. Very well priced. Fast service. Give them a try and shop with them after your meal! Best price on lobsters in town in this international bazaar with a huge seafood department. This is the real deal all around.

The food is too greasy for stir fried noodles! The oil is old
It was my first visit and the produce was the best!
The woman at the counter was very helpful with suggestions for me! She asked me what I was interested in having and gave suggestions! She wanted to make sure my order matched what I wanted to eat! I appreciated her taking the time with me and not rushing me through! Five stars for the service and food. I am sorry I gave a 3 star on atmosphere. I prefer eating in a more intimate setting. I loved the people and the food!!

I've had pho from many different places throughout my life, it's my favorite dish. This is definitely one of the best, and I've been coming here since they first opened. However, I’m giving it 4 stars because the price has gone up, and the portion size has shrunk. I just hope they don’t get too complacent.

It’s like a restaurant one typically finds in SE Asia…crowded, noisy & questionable cleanliness. Ordered two Seafood Pho medium bowls for $9.99. It was ok for me. I thought it was priced too high. The food came out very hot and quick. I’ll probably come back to try other dishes.

This place is located inside Pan Asia. I usually ate Pho here when I went grocery shopping at Pan Asia. Food came out pretty quickly. Pho broth is pretty good. Price is fair, good portion. I loved that the veggies served with Pho had been always fresh which made a huge difference compared to other places. I also liked their beef chow fun a lot. I had their Pork and egg bun ( banh bao ) once, but I didn’t like it - the bun was soft but filling was not fresh and too little.

I was very skeptical about eating here, but finally pushed past my fears of gastrointestinal upset and did it. I will say their Pho is probably the best I’ve had and I haven’t had a bad dish. Everything is fresh and excellent! It’s become a regular affair.
