Phở Zen

I visited this restaurant today in Sunnyside. Walking in, the atmosphere was nice and calm, with soft Christmas music playing and cute décor!!! it felt cozy and welcoming.

There was only one server working the floor, and she looked very busy, so I don’t place any blame on her. However, when our food arrived, the soup was only warm. I personally prefer it very hot, especially since it was a beef soup meant to cook the meat in the broth. Because the broth wasn’t hot enough, the beef remained uncooked.

I considered asking for extra hot broth to finish cooking the meat, but given how busy the server was and that she was the only one attending several tables, I didn’t want to add to her workload. This felt more like a kitchen issue than a service issue.

The portions were very generous, which I appreciated, but I was disappointed that I couldn’t eat the meat since it was still raw. I’m pregnant, so that’s obviously not something I can risk.

Overall, the experience was okay. With hotter broth and a bit more attention to food temperature, it could be much better.

The food is good and the portion is better than the other one I tried in the area. The taste may not meet my high expectation but it is delicious. The staff crew is so nice and frequently check on us. The atmosphere is welcoming. Definitely going back more often ❤️

Just tonight, I went to a restaurant with a group of 7 people. The food came out very quickly and was delicious. However, the older female server brought us to-go boxes even though my friend still wanted to keep eating. And her attitude seemed like she wanted us to eat really fast and leave

The food and service were alright, but the service could have been better. They didn’t check up on us often, and the waitress had an upset attitude. We tried the pho, and it was alright. We had way better pho elsewhere. I got the pad Thai, and it tasted nothing like pad Thai. It has a tomato taste to it. However, the portion is massive for the price.

It was OK but not great. The pork was a bit chewy, and the wrapping on the salad rolls a bit tough. The flavors were enjoyable in the vermicelli bowl. The potstickers were fine but not amazing.
The basil was old and had a bug on it, so I don't think we'll come back.

Service was poor, got sat at a wet table, when informed server and asked if she can dry it, the waitress said there’s a napkin there you can dry it. Had me at the table for a while without a menu, then came to take my order with no menu. lol very rude and clearly not happy with their job. I will not be back. Also the lemon grass chicken was not the best

I haven't tried their other foods because of wanted to stick strictly with their name and I am not disappointed. I got their special bowl Pho Zen which is their dac biet. It was so much food. We will go again. And the price is nice! We'll have to try other meals other than pho another day.
