This place isn't even open! Do not buy the groupon!

It’s a Mexican restaurant now. The lady at the counter said it’s this way for about a month.

I bought the Groupon deal a few months back. I went there on Thursday and it was closed, even though the website said it was open. The place looks like it's been closed for months. Do not buy the Groupon deal, it is false advertisement! They won't answer there phone either.

No, no, no....had a craving for some Vietnamese boa BUT this was not the cure! Their boa come frozen and probably from Costco. No taste and over priced. In this time of Covid, they handle the food bare handed. Will NOT be coming here again.

Pretty darn good pho run by very nice people. I just went in for the first time and they gave me a free boba tea with my pho tom. Wish they had more on the menu, but for a tiny place like that I understand it can be hard. The pho was absolutely terrific and the boba tea was sooo delicious. Definitely going back again.

Fell off a cliff for quality this year. Used to be excellent.

Over priced for the portions you get ...don’t bother ordering extra the prices go up but the portions stay the same not the first time this has happened to me here.

I can see why I came upon a groupon for this place ?. People preparing the food weren’t wearing gloves and were going back and forth between things. Meats in both my beef and chicken pho were reaaaally low quality. Also ordered bubble tea and it was very clearly made from instant tea and bubbles. Didn’t finish either of my orders and won’t be going back unfortunately.

I have never written a bad review before, but this was the worst food I've had in a long time -- maybe in my life. I picked up shrimp pho, beef meatball pho, vegetarian egg rolls and bubble tea for my mom's birthday, and was very disappointed. It was a terrible waste of $40 and made the birthday dinner a bummer. The noodles in the pho were a firm brick, exactly like the plastic-wrapped already-cooked kind you get at the store. The beef meatball was inedible in texture and flavor. There were about four shrimp in the shrimp pho. After picking the shrimp out, we dumped two whole bowls down the garbage disposal. It was a waste of herbs, but they were wilted anyway. The vegetarian egg rolls had only cabbage inside and no flavor. (The T.HO pork egg rolls on the menu were not available.) The sauces included were not bad, but there was nothing good to eat them with. The milk tea had only a few boba and they were hard and bumpy, presumably old. I am sorry to be so negative, but I think people should know when the quality is this bad.

I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it either. The broth was so hot which I was happy about. However, it lacked some flavor. The meat was a bit tough and tasted a little metallic. I'm use to a lot of toppings which I did not get. I only wish there were jalapeños and fresh basil that was not wilted and fresh limes!The bean sprouts were a little warm too. I added a lot of sriracha though and it made it so much better but my noodles were mini bite size so it was very difficult to eat! This place is your typical hole in the wall, the menu is small but service is QUICK! I did not like the vegetable rolls, I found them to be very soggy instead of crunchy and lacked flavor.

Not great , wifey shrimp pho was spoiled ? so That went right in the trash . I had the tro n the meatball was actually really good . Broth lacking flavor bad . I was a lil taken back by how rude they were when Leving the store . Shocking cause we were so nice n very excited to try them n even told them . The egg rolls were the only good thing we had . Expensive for size thou with no meat at all ??‍♂️ Will NOT recommend this to anyone ! ! !

My fiancé had a groupon for $40 so we bought a lot of different things on the menu. Boba tea: I got the mango which was tasty. I wish it had more ice and also fresher boba. The tapioca was stale and not squishy. My fiancé got the taro flavor and it taste like sweet, watered down milk. It wasn't either of our favorites. Pho: we both got pho. I got the rare steak and fiancé got the meat trio (beef, meatball, and something else I can't remember). The broth was tasty, but my meat didn't seem fresh or it was just a bad cut of meat. It has a weird taste to it. The veggies that came with it were good though! They gave us plenty of sauces. The bean sprouts weren't too fresh but still edible. Fried veggie Dumplings: these not the best. They were not crunch but more soggy. Fried Egg rolls: we had ordered spring rolls but they gave us these instead. But they were Yummy! I'd get them again.

Very friendly family owned business. Great atmosphere. Not a great location but not too bad. The food smells wonderful!

Open for carry out or delivery only during COVID but usually they have a decent amount of seating for a small cafe. Having eaten Pho in many different places...one of my favorite things is how Vincent's packages their ToGo Pho. They use these round ToGo bowls that make it easy to combine and eat anywhere. Almost everyone else gives you broth in a cup with the rest in a cardboard or styrofoam box; this is a pain when your traveling and don't have Tupperware to reassemble the meal. The portions are good size and it is quick, great for lunch or dinner.
