Been here a couple times and I really enjoy their foods. One of my favorite dish is vermicelli with grilled pork and roll. It may look small in the photo but the portion is perfect! I’ll definitely come back.
I saw reviews of this restaurant in the Cleveland magazine and decided to give it a try; it was a pleasant surprise. It is the only place in Cleveland that actually has “broken rice” in its broken rice dish - other restaurants just use normal jasmine rice, and it is a game changer. The grilled pork chop and the meatloaf are really good too. They have plenty of seats, so a large group can easily gather here. Their menus have a variety of dishes, and I can't wait to...read full review
Great food and a pleasant dining environment. We came by in the afternoon between the lunch and dinner rush, so the restaurant wasn't crowded at all.
Everything we ordered was flavorful and well-prepared. With a Southeast Asian staff and local Southeast Asian customers dining in, the atmosphere felt truly authentic—and the dishes matched that expectation.
Definitely a reliable spot for authentic pho in a clean and comfortable setting.
