First time going. The milk teas are so good and the pho has such a delicious broth. Chicken was a bit dry (it was in the pho), lo mein and egg drop soup are also delicious. The staff is kind and attentive. We'll be back to try out more items!

First time here. The food was really good and the staff is super attentive and sweet. I don’t know if it was the owner or just a staff member but my daughters cried and he came out the kitchen and gave her a box of strawberry cookies. That was really sweet. Their bubba teas and smoothies are great too. The prices are almost cheap compared to other places. Will definitely come again.

First time here today. I’m not sure how to express how this is the dinning experience I expect anytime I go anywhere. The service was great, the place is cozy and the food is delicious. The place is kind of small but I’m definitely coming back. A really nice young man from the restaurant walked over to our table and randomly gifted my toddler and another little girl at another table these cute little cookies.

Plenty of fun decorations hanging around the inside. There is the classic assortment of Vietnamese decorations, but for fun, they also have a grass wall with flowers on it. Great spot to take a couple photos. Very clean inside. Tables were clean and not sticky (!!) TV in the corner of the room was fun to look at at times too. Service was very fast and everyone was friendly. Seeing the kitchen and hearing chatter in the background made me feel like I was eating at my grandma’s house. Atmosphere: 9/10
Food was great. I got the grilled pork banh mi and my husband got the grilled pork rice platter. We also shared a beef pho. My husband really appreciated that the rice platter came with an egg roll. This is the first place that we’ve been to that gives an egg roll on the side of your rice platter. The Vietnamese fish sauce was delicious when paired with the egg roll. The egg roll itself is also the most similar I’ve had to my grandma’s egg roll so that’s amazing. Grilled rice platter: 7.5/10
The pho was delicious. As soon as the bowl was on the table the Vietnamese aromatics filled the air and I knew I was in for a great time. Of course, you have to add a bit of sriracha with it. I couldn’t even get a photo of it because we dug right in. This dish is definitely a must have. Beef pho: 9.5/10
I got the Grilled pork banh mi. All of the ingredients were exactly what I was craving. The crispy and light French bread, the savory pate, and the spicyness of the jalapeño really brought it all together. I think we may have had a bad batch of grilled pork. We went about an hour prior to closing time. It could have used more char to give it that iconic Vietnamese grilled pork flavor. We will definitely come back here and try again. Grilled pork banh mi: 8/10
Notes: I really appreciate this is a Vietnamese-owned local business. One of the servers told us that a lot of local people become regulars and I can definitely see why. The server also said Kathy is there every day making food for people.
Bonus points: Food was extremely affordable. We ate for $37 and we got more food than we usually would. They have a reward system(!) For every $100 you spend you get $5 off…there’s not too much to complain about there.
This place is definitely a must try if you haven’t tried it already. We will definitely be coming back. Overall restaurant score: 9/10

Some of the best, if not the best, Vietnamese food I’ve ever had. The vermicelli bowl is my go-to but today I had the grilled pork banh mi and wonton soup. It was so delicious!!!! Best banh mu I’ve had in a long, long time and the wonton soup was fantastic as well. Always love grabbing lunch here. As does most of our office.
Great food and great people running the place. Cannot recommend enough!!!!
The food is great! I ordered the vermicelli bowl with shrimp. There was practically no wait, the food was ready pretty fast. There’s high tables and the atmosphere is nice. The servers are attentive and friendly, I would definitely visit this restaurant again!

Sleeper spot in Pasadena, I would always pass it up on the way to the gym and once I checked it out. I gotta say the city needs more places like these, mom and pop restaurant with authentic Vietnamese food. None of that fusion bs that’s fancy and does too much. Nope, just plain good food, I recommend the spring rolls and the rice platter with chicken. Fairly macro friendly and true authentic viet food, this and Southmore Asian fast food are the best viet places in the area.
