We ho her a lot after shopping! Until today everything used to be great. The server was always nice to us. Today she looked stressed and for some reason busy with us and 4 other tables. Food used to always be good, and it was today until we found bugs in our soups. Accidents happen of course, but WOW the atmosphere changed when we quietly showed the bugs we found and quietly asked just to pay for the shrimp rolls so we could be on our way. The server was disrespectful and loud and the cook for whatever reason came out didn't say anything but just starred at us. The bill came and was correct with the discount, I politely asked what was the total amount so I could atleast tip accordingly and the server raised her voice saying "I already discounted the bill what else you want", smh so upset she didn't even realize I was still trying to give her a proper tip.This used to be a great restaurant to go to BUT probably never again

Food was okayService was really bad. Even as students we tipped the server, but got called back to tip even more. Got called back and was told minimum tip is 15 dollars and was forced to tip.

Bad attitude! Bad service! And bad sanitation issues! We found two bugs in the soup and we asking to change the soup. They agreed at the first time, after the waitress bought the evidence back to kitchen. Then they suddenly changed their attitude. The owner of this kitchen told us they are the black paper and trying to EDUCAT us what black pepper looks like in the soup. What disrespectful behavior! With the sanitary considering, I will not suggest anyone go to this restaurant. There are lots of other good restaurants in Cleveland. DO NOT GO TO THIS RESTAURANT!

Horrible service. The line was super long when there are plenty of seats open. Got seated after a long time, no one brought out the menu for 10 min and when we asked to order twice the lady said not to talk to her.

BEST wonton soup I’ve ever had. Tender slices of pork, delicate stuffed wontons, layered and complex flavored broth. Service is always spot on!

Located in the Asia Plaza, a delicious Vietnamese spot! A huge parking lot out front, and a large restaurant with plenty of tables. We were able to be seated immediately on a Saturday night. The staff was very quick and kind, giving us extra bowls so we could sample each other's meals. Our table started with the A2 Garden Rolls ($6), which were fresh and delicious, accompanied with a peanut sauce. I got the P2 Pho with Brisket ($13), and the broth was to die for! So tasty, it did not need much other spices or sauces added. I also got to try the spiced pork in the vermicelli noodles, and it was divine. Some of the best flavored pork I've ever tried. The menu is also HUGE with: pho, vermicelli, banh mi, fried rice, noodles, etc. I will be back to try more!

We had lunch at Pho Sunshine yesterday. We were a party of three. I had the Eye of Round & Meatball Pho, my Wife had the Deep Fried Chicken Wings, and our guest had the Dark Meat Chicken Pho. We also shared three of the rolls with come two to and order. My Wife, and I had Hot Jasmine Tea, our guest drank ice water. In regard to our meals: The Eye of Round & Meatball Pho was quite good. The noodles we cooked properly, it had a fair amount of meat, and was not overwhelmed with green onions, but had the right amount. Our guest, and I were given one plate of bean sprouts, with four sliced jalapeños. I found this to be improper. We should have received one plate each, and should have received much more sliced jalapeños, or some type of sliced peppers. I would prefer Thai peppers or Serrano peppers to Jalapeño. There were plenty of bean sprouts. My Wife was happy with the Deep Fried Chicken Wings. She cannot eat Tomatoes or Peppers, because they cause her to have a Fibromyalgia flare-up, so this limits her choices. She wanted a side order of vegetables, but we were told that they were out. I was unhappy with this, as was my Wife. This was in the early afternoon, and this was completely unacceptable! There is a grocery store less than 150 feet away from the restaurant, and it is attached to the Asia Plaza. So they would not have to go outside to purchase some vegetables. Needless to say, my Wife was not satisfied, and still a little hungry after leaving the restaurant. Our guest had the Dark Chicken Meat Pho. The meat was light in color, and did not even taste of dark meat. She even asked the Lady who served us if it was dark meat, and was assured it was with "Trust me". It did not look like dark meat to any of us, and our guest described the meat as almost flavorless. She was not entirely happy, nor was I. The Hot Jasmine tea was the proper color, but was not fragrant, or having the nice, rich taste of Jasmine tea. I asked the Lady who served us what type of tea it was, and she said it was Jasmine. I told her it was a very low quality Jasmine tea. Jasmine tea should be aromatic, and have that pleasant, rich flavor. As for service, the Lady who served us was very pleasant, and attentive. It is unfortunate that they are missing on the negative points that I have mentioned. A Vietnamese restaurant should care more about their customers happiness, and should not be lacking in any point. The owner(s) of Pho Sunshine in Asia Plaza need to step up, and make some changes to what they sell, and serve, their customers. We love Vietnamese cuisine, and left a little disappointed. The meal cost around $64 after tax, and I left her a fair tip, as she deserved it.....unless she is an owner. Perhaps I should have asked. Will we return, possibly, but apprehensively, if we do. There menu has a pretty good selection to give them another try. We will be back to Asia Plaza regularly, but I am currently scanning Yelp for Vietnamese, and Chinese restaurants in the area.

Negative it should be if there is the option. Horrible food quality, poor customer service, and rude owner for honest feedback...

Best soup eating environment in town, cool booths and natural light. very tasty rich broth. I feel stronger from drinking it. server was super nice and called us honey, i love this place and will be returning

First and foremost, the pho is very good! The broth is rich and the noodles and veggies/meat are fresh. I also tried a pork and cabbage salad, which was surprisingly delicious. I wasn't expecting the pork to be so tender and rich, and the dressing that came with it was a perfect sweet and sour. The service was friendly and brought us our food within a reasonable timeframe. Definitely on my list of recommendations for anyone who wants pho as well as other options.
