Amazingly underwhelming - the food's not bad, it's just not that good. Expected better from a Chinatown restaurant (even though it's Vietnamese). Good Vietnamese food is fresh - this was not, and the food is pretty bland. It's a dive, which I don't mind, but service is not friendly either (am I expecting too much)? Would skip, try a different restaurant nearby.
I thought this place was really good. I'm not very knowledgeable about pho. It's not my favorite dish so I rarely ever get it. But when my friend ordered a bowl, I helped myself to a tasting. It was delightful!- really smooth and flavorful. He said it was more greasy than usual, but hey, I guess that's how they get that flavor. I'd definitely order a bowl from this place. I got the vermicelli noodles with the fish sauce. It's a classic favorite of mine and this place didn't disappoint...read full review
Your average NYC Vietnamese restaurant. Everything tasted good though portion was kind of small compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I've been to. The pho also seriously lacked toppings. Service was ok, nothing special. There are tons of other Vietnamese restaurants within the vicinity, I'd probably try another place next time.
