If you're considering ordering their wonton soup don't. I counted FIVE wontons and TWO slices of beef. The order is mostly noodles. I should have gone with my instincts and made myself a bowl of Romen noodles. Super disappointed. Do better Fresh Elements!!

Ordered a delivery from “It’s pho girls” on door dash and traced back that the food is made here. They messed up our order completely. We ate it anyways because we were hungry and couldn’t get ahold of anyone to correct this issue. The food was extremely bland and there was virtually no meat. Avoid Fresh elements and “it’s pho girls” unless you want noodles that are basically in water.

Ordered takeout pho. Super bland, wasn't what we actually ordered. They didn't provide any Onion or cilantro like it says in product description.

My boyfriend and I love this restaurant. He took me to it for his birthday once and now any time we're in Salam we eat here. It makes us feel better when we're sick, or sad, or after Christmas shopping. We drive all the way from McMinnville to have it. The service is different it's not someone constantly on you because it's a family restaurant and there's normally only one person there when we go. He's always very friendly and talks with us when he has the chance but mostly he works between cooking cause he's running the business. He's always very humble when we say we only eat pho here saying there's tons of others in other places we should try. We get the beef pho and egg rolls everytime, we make it spicy ourselves with the chili sauce and other sauces at the table. The portions are always perfect and we never really take anything home. The parking is good but it's a small parking lot so we've had to park across the street at the family dollar before.Parking: It's a small parking lot but there's tons of parking across the street at family dollar if the parking lot in front of it is full

Stay away from this restaurant! Here are a list of what I didn’t like about the place:1st - They kept the light to their restroom off. I had to use a flashlight to find my way.2nd - The restaurant was empty the whole time we were there. There was one other customer but he was finishing as we entered.3rd - The food was mediocre. The boba milk tea was basically a mixture of last minute put together condensed milk with ice tea & some boba. Not to mention their Thai ice tea was terrible. Vietnamese drips coffee wasn’t good either.4th - The size of their egg roll was a joke. Their fish sauce was tasteless.5th - They don’t give you a breakdown of their charges. I believe they over charged me for my bill.

Went here with a friend who highly recommended their Vietnamese Noodle Soups. He ordered a Spicy noodle soup, and I got a General Tso's Chicken just to have something else at the table. The service was abysmal, the two (Owners?) working did not check on us after seating and once the food was brought, again ignored us. The waiter (Chef?) did not attempt to make my food Spicy as I had requested. The images in the menu appeared to show Family Style portions, but my chicken dish was just a few pieces of breaded fried meat, tossed with what appeared to be a store bought orange chicken sauce... Super unimpressed. My friends dish however was surprisingly solid, with a well developed flavorful broth, all the appropriate vegetables on the side, and a decent portion. Our plates were the same price, but I was super jealous I had not ordered what he recommended. Probably won't go back just for that dish though.

The vermicelli was super subpar. If I didn't know what I wanted I might have been happy but there was no cilantro, no fish sauce, it was missing so much. Really it was just rice noodles with onions & meat, a tiny bit of lettuce, and a couple bean sprouts. Not the flavor profile I expect from that dish. Portions were generous. Same with the fresh rolls, it was just iceberg lettuce, rice noodles, and shrimp. No other veggies, no herbs. Really subpar
The signature pho brought life to my soul on a rainy day as Beethoven's 5th serenaded us from above. Very comfortable environment, I had to fight off the post meal nap. Hospitable indeed

So, ordered here for convenience. Bad choice next time I'm just making a further drive. The spring rolls were just shrimp when the menu said pork and shrimp. They absolutely had no flavor in the least bit. The crab puffs were tiny and no sauce. The signature beef pho came with very little beef and had no flavor. The yakisoba had very little meat but tasted ok. For the price I would have expected way better. In addition the chili oil cup I asked for was not even filled half way. I'm guessing the owner was the one who helped us and he wasn't friendly whatsoever. I had asked him for a second chili cup and he seemed very bothered. I'm not surprised there were no other customers there. Would not recommend.

Got delivery and food was uneatable. Ordered beef Pho and the meat is always served rare and you cook it in broth. They sent it already in broth so the meat was very tough and rubbery. It was also very fatty. Also found a long hair in the soup before eating it. Had to throw away entire meal. Very disappointed and poor quality. Will not be back.

We had our first orders from there delivered . Portions were great and quite tasty and on time . My issue was we both ordered extra peanut sauce and there was absolutely none! It’s the reason I love Pad Thai so much, it was definitely a very spendy lunch for 2 but I’d eat there again

A touch run down in decor, but the food is priced according to the times, comes in large portions and is delicious! ? A new must for me when visiting downtown!
