First time trying this place on Monday and the food was great! Fried spring rolls were good. They have a big nice drink menu also! The only reason we didn’t give 5 stars for service is because one of the servers kept staring at his phone when we tried to get his attention. The older gentleman server was awesome though. We will be

I never leave bad reviews but this is the second time the beef in my pho has tasted foul. It was inedible and I had to throw it away. I got delivery through door dash store front.

I've been here before a few times back as a student, but it looks like they changed a lot, in a good way. I think their pho is great for a wintery day. It's a little mild compared to some other broths in other places, but in ucity, it's a godsend. It definitely hits the spot in a warm, comforting way. I wish we had more pho options, but I'm more than happy with this location. I'll be back to try more of their other dishes and options.

The pho broth was overly sweet and unbalanced. You cannot taste any of the spices. If you want real GOOD authentic pho go to pho 75.The Vietnamese coffee was obviously not made the authentic way and tasted of artificial creamer.Utensils were not properly stocked, sauces were not filled, and the waiters seemed to actively avoid making eye contact with patrons.

Very disappointing experience. Broth was bland yet way too sweet and the cả phê sữa đá (Vietnamese iced coffee) was made with weak coffee and too much of some kind of artificially flavored creamer instead of condensed milk. When we pointed out our order was wrong, even though we placed it in Vietnamese, the waitstaff didn’t care and actually paid even less attention to us the rest of our stay. To top it off, we paid cash and were never offered change. Gỏi cuốn (summer roll) was alright and decor is cute.

I had take out pho with brisket. The broth was tasty. I didn’t add the brisket because it was gray. Also had iced carrot drink that was delicious.

What a delicious place. I had a wonderful vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and spring roll. Yum. My girlfriend had brisket pho which was delicious I tried some of the broth it was so good... she also got some kind of egg cream soda drink that was out of this world. I had the Vietnamese iced coffee and it was awesome. Will definitely be going back. I also loved the decor and music. Thank you

Pho and wonton soup taste too sweet. Hard breading and not enough flavor on the salt and pepper shrimp and the garlic shrimp.

The shrimp was expertly prepared to perfection, exhibiting just the right texture and flavor. Every other dish presented a delightful taste experience, each distinctly infused with authentic Vietnamese flair. This dining experience was thoroughly enjoyable, and I am certainly looking forward to visiting again.
It's so been so many years since I've been here. YEARS. I remember having somewhat of a bad experience here and so I put it to I rest. My daughter dined here the other night and came home raving about it so I had to see for myself. I ordered crispy shrimp spring rolls and grilled pork pho. The spring rolls were delicious and the pho was warm and comforting. One thing I might add however, is I expected the pork to be a slow grilled meaty pork chop. Thick and tender. I received grilled pork but it was very thin . More like "shaved" pork. It still tasted ok, however I was a tiny bit disappointed. The place is small and it felt like it was important to eat and depart, however the food was decent and the complimentary coconut jello was a sweet surprise. (BYOB!)

Convenient spot for students in the area. I've only tried their vermicelli, which is really yummy, but the meat is always slightly too oily for my liking. They definitely reduced their portion size over the past two years while increasing their prices.

Honestly not bad. I'm more impressed with the non-pho options here. The food was cooked well and my catfish in clay pot was immaculate. The only real gripe I have is the fact that the prices here are quite high. The meatball springrolls were interesting but not something I would ever get again but the sauce it was served with was delicious. The fried sping rolls were also fried well but a bit heavy and debatably almost too much food.
