Great food and great service. Thai chicken curry soup was flavorful with fresh ingredients. It's got a good spicy kick. The fried spring rolls were excellent too.

None of the Asian restaurants on Grove Street really make the grade, and this one proves no exception. The clientele was boisterously loud, and most good restaurants invest in sound proofing their ceilings so that it isn't bouncing off the walls. I love how the owner says to just do takeout, and certainly the service was lackluster (no chopsticks, had to call out to get attention), but the food was forgettable and a shame, not representing good authentic Vietnamese food at all. The soup broth for the phô, a fundamental element for any decent Vietnamese place tasted like water. I mistakenly thought this was the relocated Saigon Grill, where the food was delicious. Save the time and money - don't go here.

Complete waste of time for a second time. They put closed signs at 8:30pm on a Saturday night. Also, half the time they are closed on random days. These folks don’t know how to run a restaurant. Don’t waste your time or effort coming to this place.

Nice spot for Pho. It’s in a hotspot area so food is slightly more than many Pho spots… but it’s still good

This is the best Vietnamese restaurant in Jersey City and beyond! The depth and love that you can taste in the pho broth is unmatched! Our go-to orders are the beef pho, spicy lemongrass beef soup, clay pot pork and any of the clay pot curry seafood. You simply can never go wrong with any dish you order. Great drinks too!!!!

I get delivery from here often. It’s one of my go-to spots for Vietnamese food. I always get the fresh spring rolls. The peanut sauce is spot on and the shrimp is fresh. You can never go wrong with this appetizer. The beef vermicelli is really good too. Love all the fresh vegetables they use and the pickled radishes and carrots are absolutely mouthwatering.

Horrible customer service. There is definitely discrimination. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Food is also not worth it.

The spicy lemongrass beef soup is dynamite- but as others have said $25 for soup is a bit pricy. If price doesn’t bother you, worth a visit!
