The service and food have always been great when I went. And the Vietnamese spring rolls here are one of the best things I have ever eaten in my life. Such a treat and the pho is so yummyy too. The Vietnamese iced coffee too 😆

I used to come here often until one day I came and ate with 2 family members and we tipped a few bucks but the lady or one of the waitresses at the front desk demanded that we give more tips and wouldn't let us leave. Absolutely vile.. never came back since then.

I frequent this place with friends when I'm in the area. As with any pho place I judge them by their broth and noodles and their signature is what I usually order. If not, then I order the noodles with pork chop, that comes on the side.

Unlike a lot of pho establishments after Covid, the broth here remains the same- full of flavor and not watered down. They also give a lot of scallions and cilantro (which I love) and a slice of lemon to enhance the flavor of the soup. The noodles aren't overcooked and have a nice chew to them. The bean sprouts that you put into the soup are consistently fresh and adds a nice crunch to everything.

I also love their pork chop, also rich in lemongrass flavor. The only thing is that they only give one pork chop. Most places give at least 2.

Overall- a place I would come back to. The staff are friendly and very efficient. You get your food quickly- so while it can be a place you go to in order to catch up with friends or family, it can also be a place to get in and out of very quickly as well.

Food was decent. Attitude was terrible. The lady looked at me like I owed her a million dollars.

We paid for the meal and included tip. Then we were told that the tip is 15% and demanded that we pay more. Tip is based on how well the customer felt the service was. How does it make sense to ask the customer to pay more tip? Be ready to pay more tip if they feel it isn't enough.

They gave me the wrong order for takeout. I got pork chops with rice and instead of rice they gave me noodles and a broth. How do you mess up this bad seriously. Make sure to double check and open your order

Good price for the food that you get. The restaurant closes earlier than other ones along 8th Avenue.

Rubbish, stealing money from customers, claiming wrong change, and even rubbish service. They also ask guests for tips. What is a tip? Tips depend on your mood. You have such a service attitude and you still want a tip. Why do you want to ask for a tip? Tip, do you want some dignity? I just came back and opened it and found out that it was packed in the wrong size. The leftovers from other people’s meals were also packed for us. It was really rubbish service. We only had a piece of pork chop rice, but when we came back, we opened it and looked at it. Two copies, really rubbish, never come back and expose their family.
