Was my go to spot when it first opened.
Had to ask for straws and sauce dishes multiple times.
When we got our appetizers, we didn’t receive any plates. We asked if we can get some plates so we can share the food. They asked how many.. usually servers will give you plates based on how many people you have. That caught me off guard.
We ordered pho, but spoons were missing. Would be easier if they had utensils and napkins on the table like every other pho restaurants.
One of our waters spilled, no one offered us napkins or a new glass of water. Didn’t even bother asking at that point.
Food was just fine, service needs some work. Felt like we had to ask for common sense things over and over.
Probably won’t come back.

I've been a regular online ordering customer of this restaurant, enjoying the pho special for over a year. The broth was consistently excellent, ranking among one of the best in the Beaverton area for me. However, I've noticed that the broth has become watered down lately, lacking the rich flavor it once had—almost reminiscent of a prepackaged Vietnamese pho from the grocery store. Unfortunately, I may have to consider ordering my pho from a different restaurant moving forward.

Food tastes great and comes in decent portions. Friendly service and hassle-free. The only downside is the lack of AC. Still ok to sit inside with the fans if you've lived in or been to places where AC is not the norm.

We used to come here often when the restaurant first opened. During the opening period, they even offered complimentary pudding, and the place was always lively and bustling. However, there was one female server who was consistently rude and unpleasant, which left a bad impression. The final straw for us was the disappointing takeout experience. The portion size was much smaller than when dining in, which made us feel cheated. After that, we didn’t return for years.
Recently, we decided to give this place another try after a very long time. We ordered the Pork Vermicelli Bowl and the Pho Gabo Special. The vermicelli had well-seasoned meat, and overall, it was slightly better than the average vermicelli dishes we’ve tried at other Vietnamese restaurants.

We wanted to go to Noodle World but were disappointed to find it had closed. Feeling deflated, we came back here instead. This time, we had the Brisket Pho and the Beef Stew Noodle. The beef stew reminded me of my favorite at Pho Nguyen, where the soup is rich and flavorful, the meat is tender, and both the beef and the large chunks of potato are generously served, giving it a hearty, rustic feel. This version was good as well, with a similar broth, but the meat wasn’t as tender, and unfortunately, it didn’t include any potatoes.
Overall, the food here is still quite enjoyable, and we were glad to revisit it after all these years.😊✨

I'm not a very confrontational person, so I didn't want to cause a scene in the restaurant so I'll just leave this review online. But I'm really disappointed that this is the second time in a row in which there was a tiny fly in my pho. The SECOND time this happened. The first time, I was like, "okay, whatever, the pho is still bomb." But the second time today, I'm just disappointed. Still good though. But please keep the kitchen clean and free of bugs and flies! I don't want to see it in my pho anymore. I love this place, the broth is amazing. Just don't want this happening again.

Came in 30 minutes before they closed and they said we couldn't dine-in, which was annoying but I also don't want to be the reason they stay late. They ALLOWED me to order take-out and sent me off with cold pho. I don't mean room temperature. It was refrigerated. The people suck, the food sucks, don't go.

The large pho is the same portion as other places mini pho. Maybe I just got stiffed because the meal was to go.
For better portion and fresher ingredients I recommend going up the street to happy bamboo

Flavorful broth in the shrimp pho, very impressed! Good service, and they went above and beyond to get us an extra bowl so we could share the soup.

Sheeeee.. 20$$ wth!!! For basic soup that was designed to be an affordable option these gouge trends are out of hand. I’m not returning with these 12$ mark ups with no actual changes in quality. Idk. The flies were fighting over my left overs.
