Gia Lam II Reviews
Rude service and demanded more tip
One of my favorite pho spots price reasonable
I ordered pho to go. The container bowl they provided was too small, I couldn't pour all of the broth in. They included bean sprouts but no cilantro. The pho itself was just okay. It tasted like they went light on the spices to cut back on costs, so the broth lacked depth. On the plus side, they were very generous with the meat and broth.

Gia Lam II, located on 8th Avenue in Brooklyn, is a long-standing Vietnamese restaurant known for its great and fast service. The spacious interior has a cozy and warm atmosphere. The menu is extensive, but the classic bowl of pho, #1 dish, and summer roll are customer favorites. The pork chop pho and flavorful broth are also highly recommended. The broth remains rich and full of flavor, with plenty of scallions, cilantro, and a slice of lemon to enhance the taste. The noodles are always cooked just right, with a nice chew, and the bean sprouts are fresh and crunchy. The Vietnamese spring rolls are considered one of the best things to eat here, and the Vietnamese iced coffee is also a popular choice. Despite only accepting cash, there is ample seating, ensuring no wait time. The restaurant's consistency in food quality and friendly, efficient staff keep customers coming back over the years. It’s a place suitable for a quick visit or catching up with friends and family.
