Good pho and nice quint place.
Super cute little restaurant! The outdoor patio space is really nice and the huge parking lot is awesome for parking a large trailer!
The food was excellent! I ordered the ginger seasame chicken salad and loved it! Perfect, filling portions and the jasmine tea is so good! I can't wait to come back and try the Bahn mi!

Excellent Experience!
I had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious—everything I hoped for and more. Since it was my first time visiting a place like this, I appreciated how helpful and friendly the staff was, making me feel comfortable and well taken care of.
I ordered the brisket sandwich and a bowl of broth with spicy lemongrass, and both dishes exceeded my expectations with their rich flavors. I was so impressed that I ended up tipping a second time!
Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

We ordered the Texas Pho half spicy and it was divine! With a brisket banh mi. Not your traditional/authentic Vietnamese pho, but a delicious Texan fusion. Large portions, very reasonable prices, and they have a drive through as well.
me and my bf came here to eat after shopping around at watters creek and it was so good!! i love banh mi so much and the one i got here was delicious. the pickled carrots really elevated it i just wish there was a little less of them bc each bite is either only meat, only carrot, or only cilantro. otherwise its really good price wise and the service and atmosphere was so perfect!! i love the little jazz instrumentals ☺️ and my bf loved his brisket pho ^_^

We had a great day here. I’ll preface this by saying we visited on a rainy Friday afternoon after double checking Google for business hours. I also ordered a noodle bowl and my friend had a rice bowl. We didn’t have any pho, so I can’t speak to that. I also always ask for everything very nicely. Sometimes people just make mistakes. I’ve never had an issue here and my little one likes the play area.
I loved the rainy day vibe and iced coffee and soft jazz music. Me and my friend parked there and caught up over our food for a couple of hours. It’s a charming little place and I loved my food. The classic iced coffee was good and very strong.
I will admit it’s a little pricey so dining here is a special treat. Especially when the sweet guy with pretty eyes works. He knows who he is. Kudos for making it such a nice visit.

This restaurant is a destination due to its location. Good business strategy turning an old gas station into a restaurant with lots of parking spaces and outdoor seating. Very neat concept and nice decor with a collective theme.
Even though I felt that the broth can be more flavorful not necessary with MSG enhancement, but it was hot. The stainless steel bowl served kept the soup HOT! That’s important for soup noodle.
Hot food hot, cold food cold.
I also felt that the meat portion was generous even though the pho is kind of pricy. I enjoyed the pho!
My rating as 5 is very satisfied

Broth was bland. I didn’t receive any condiments more utensils with my to go order. Thought it having a drive thru was a game changer but I received lemongrass broth when I did not order it.

Not authentic. It's half a bowl of bean sprouts, dry meat, and sweet broth. No herbs, hoisin, sriracha, or limes. All for $17. Not real baguettes for their banh mi so it came out soggy and that's $11. There's so many real Viet restaurants in the area that are so much cheaper using better quality ingredients. I always drive by this place and it's empty. I understand why now
