I would say it's nice styling please , with all decorations , pretty much empty no lines in Friday night. But as person who was in Vietnam for a while I can say food can be much better and authentic than it is. Some original flavor of Vietnam I didn't find in my PHo soup and summer rolls.

The food is okay, ordered rice noodles beef broth with fish balls. Few pieces of fish balls, bland soup base given the price it charged.

I want to love this place, I really do. It's close to me, it's pretty authentic, I want it to be a happy place where I can go get a comforting bowl of pho. Unfortunately, three times in a row now, I've found so much hair in my food, that I can't even really think of eating here without gagging a little. Which is a shame, because without the hair, it's great food. Last straw were about five pieces of hair *in my mango boba tea*, which was all kinds of disgusting. But the real topper was that they had to transfer me to four different employees to get to one who understood my problem. I was promised a refund for the undrinkable beverage, which was not actually done -- I got the sense it was promised to get the angry lady off the phone.The fact that it's been three times shows I was willing to try again, because, y'know, accidents happen. But three times? And in the boba tea??? Love of god, people, learn what a hairnet is.

Broth is delicious. But the noodles is hard and broken, I expect the texture of noodle more fresh and soft.

Stay away!!! We ordered delivery for vermicelli pork and also a chicken rice dish. Immediately noticed a strand of hair in the pork dish so didn't even try it. Apparently the chicken dish was even worse - husband who has an iron stomach got food poisoning that last 3days!! This place must really not pay attention to sanitary upkeep.

I've been eating pho for a decade, but today I wanted to try something new. I ordered the Vietnamese raw beef salad and pho with grilled pork chop, and both were fantastic! The raw beef salad was especially amazing - it was so flavorful and refreshing. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves pho or Vietnamese cuisine.

We just had dinner here and we all liked it.Service was warm and welcoming. The pho was delicious and the portions huge. My child had the banh mi and it was a hit.It is byob. It is also one of the most family friendly restaurants I’ve been in a while. It still feels grown up and nice, but I could not help but notice that children felt very welcomed by the staff.Some of the items in the menu feel a little overpriced, but I guess that is downtown prices sometimes.We will add it to our regular rotation.
PROS1. Beef Rib Pho Soup with Chinese Broccoli and Ginger was soooooooo Flavorful. Muy delisioso!2. Fresh Pressed Pineapple Juice.3. Tasty Half Tea/Half Lemonade.4. Friendly Staff.5. Restroom is Clean.6. Interior is Cozy and Vibrant.7. Prices are Reasonable.8. Grilled Pork was Perfectly made.

Love love love this place! This is my go to for pho around Jersey City. Only second to Saigon Cafe Millburn, but that place is 40min drive away. This is pretty good. My go to dish is pig feet rice noodles. If you love rice noodle (not pho; pho is like white thin linguine, while rice noodle is like rich thick spaghetti), and spicy food, you are gonna fall in love with this. I always put lemon squeezes on top. Spicy sour? Who would resist that? Would die for it during a snowy winter day! Their spring roll is also very decent. Service is very fast. If I order online and opt for picking up, it's usually ready within 15 min. I also dined in door. A good place to hang out with friends. Certainly a casual place. Staff are very friendly and helpful and try to make the dining experience great!

The food here is so good, perfect portions! I don’t consider it to be that pricey. I prefer the boneless pork chops #108 with white rice, tomatoes and cucumbers. They also have fresh jalapeños! Don’t forget your Vietnamese iced coffee! So delicious! The atmosphere is nice and super clean bathrooms. The employees are so friendly. It’s a few steps down from the sidewalk, I wouldn’t call it the basement. Parking can be tough. Enjoy!

I rarely write Yelp reviews, but this was....oi. My partner is Vietnamese and grew up in the San Gabriel valley, so we were excited to find an east coast Vietnamese spot with authentic dishes like caramel pork and frog legs. That excitement quickly vanished upon opening her chicken pho, which was made with BEEF BROTH and featured broccoli (?) and dried-up, unseasoned pieces of chicken. My beef pho was mediocre (especially for the price), broth was poorly seasoned and both our noodles were so overcooked they fell apart. Summer Rolls weren't really summer rolls at all- no pickled vegetables or cucumber....just yellowing shredded lettuce in a wrapper with tough shrimp. To quote my partner- "these people are either not Vietnamese, or remarkably bad cooks." IT'S BAD Y'ALL

I have been eating pho for over a decade. This is not authentic Vietnamese pho. It’s obvious in the broth. The beauty of something so traditional and affordable is that when it’s done right it’s magic. This is watered down, improperly made, falls apart, little to no flavor, weird rendition of the classics we love from Vietnamese food. I feel I overpaid and I’m so disappointed.
Good portion, good variety. Love the Vietnamese coffee Parking: Parking right on the side of the restaurant. Less than 20 spots though.
