We ordered vegetable and tofu dishes from here to try it out. When we got them home we were basically provided with 85% noodles, 5% vegetables, and 10% broth. We decided to try again because everyone has an off night. While not feeling well I called to ask for just the broth from their tofu and vegetable pho and was told they don't have vegetable broth. I clarified and the woman informed me that the tofu pho is made with beef broth. I'm not saying the world needs to cater to vegetarians, but there are enough of us that a tofu dish of any kind is typically made without animal products. So that was great. I don't typically write reviews but hopefully others that are looking for good vegetarian pho will see this and take a hard pass.

Overrated!!

Update: much better than previous visit, but still overrated.

The food is average, interior and service are basic, yet such high rating??! People in the area probably set the bar too low!

Pho was average. Has a meaty aroma and lots of grease.
Fried rice was bad. Very very greasy and underwhelming in flavors.
Banh mi was among the worst I've had yet. Dry meat, old bun, not much veggies, and a gallon of bbq sauce. Ugh!
Thai tea was actually good contrary to everything else. Flavorful yet a bit sweet.

Service can improve a lot. We were served fried rice instead of rice and bbq meat that we ordered. No silverware or chopsticks, no good knowledge of the menu or helpful recommendations.

I could see the owner cared about this business, and I feel bad writing thia review. However, unlike the reviews that fooled us into eating here, it was among the least quality Vietnamese food we've had in a while.

Might have been an off night, so we'll try it again just to be sure the high rating is legit!?

A cozy, friendly little pho shop. I was a little disappointed with their spring rolls- the shrimp in mine tasted a lot like it was just a cold cocktail shrimp- but the pho itself was fantastic and the beef in it was cooked to perfection

Amazing food! I’m from Texas, visiting the area for new job training and had THE best pho soup and shrimp spring rolls I’ve had in my life, hands down. It’s hard to find good spring rolls and pho soup back home. There are places, but none that compare to Pho Lotus pho broth. The owners are so friendly, so sweet and so personable! I enjoyed eating here and talking with the owner :)

This is truly the best restaurant around. The food was absolutely perfect. It was seriously to die for. Quality. I highly recommend C6 on the menu, it was awesome. On top of that, the service was great too. We always had someone checking on how we were doing and I appreciated that. This restaurant not only has the best Asian food I've ever ate, but some of the best food I've had in my life. It deserves 10 stars but sadly I can only use 5. Keep up the great work!

Vegetarian options: The food is very healthy and a large portion of it is vegetables.

Parking: Lots of spots, the area is never really busy.

I highly recommend the vermicelli rice noodles with grilled pork (C1), tastes the closest to authentic I have had in the US (after living in Vietnam for 4 years). The waiter was nice and the food arrived quickly.

My empty plate should tell you what this place is all about absolutely amazing. I had very low hopes walking in the door, but I am just so happy that it’s right in my neighborhood. And sorry I couldn’t get you guys a picture of the plate but trust me it was amazing. Do not treat this like that movie on Netflix and ignore it for five months stop in and get you some of this good food.

I was so excited to see A Vietnamese restaurant closer to Lititz than my other favorites. The staff greeted me right away. Very kind and informative. I ordered my two favorite things along with some iced coffee. Everything was so amazing!!!!! This food is healthy and delicious! I will absolutely go again and again!
