The food isn't super good, but it's very tasty. The staff are also friendly. It was a bit disappointing to use disposable water cups!~ (There may be circumstances I don't know about)

The Red Volcano is out of this world. Highly recommend. This picture is just one part of it, the full meal is larger. Definitely get this on the menu.

Really good Meatball Pho, broth had great flavor but was lacking fat pearls, Meatballs had good flavor and bite. Vegetable Spring Rolls and Dumplings were also good. Would visit again.

Had their pad thai -ish dish. Positive was that it wasn’t overly sweet. But terrible here. Cook is just bad. I will need to go back home and eat something else.

I enjoyed their seafood noodle. It's stir fry style with thin noodles. Ingredients were fresh and sauce was so good. I liked how they didnt make the dish salty as the most of restaurants often do. A good amount of large calamri, scallops, and shrimps were in the dish. I will definitely order this noodle again. I will go back for seafood fried rice next time. Also, they had a nice Vietnamese iced coffee. It was strong and sweet with cream as it should be. I liked it very much.

I cannot say enough about this place. I usually get the Pho but today got the Bon mi. Outside of Vietnam-this is the BEST I've ever had. They cook the tofu perfectly, sauce is amazing, bun is perfectly crispy. And not expensive at all. Can't wait to come back!!

Delicious pho! Sometimes I get pho and am disappointed it isn't ramen, but not the case with this bowl! So satisfying, full of flavor, hearty yet light rice noodles. Tried the shrimp and Veggie pho with beef broth. Worth it being a little more pricy than some of the other pho in the area.

The place is nice but the service staff is terrible. We arrived and chose a different table than the one the waiter offered us and he got angry, then he rudely threw the menu at the table, we were ready to order the food and I looked at the waiter and called him and he ignored me, we waited Approximately 20 minutes for our order to be taken (the restaurant was relatively empty). We ordered two soup-pho and they brought us only a plate of vegetables so I wanted to talk to the waiter and when I called him he looked at me in a contemptuous way and did not approach the table, he looked at me and opened his eyes as if asking what is the matter. What I wanted, so I asked him and with his bad actitud answered “you have to talk to the person who brings the food” he give his back and just he continue walking . So I had to wait for the food and well he brought me a fairly small portion of what I asked for. We hadn't finished eating yet and another person from the restaurant (waiter) came up and handed me the bill. We wanted to order dessert but with that attitude we decided to leave. We felt uncomfortable the entire time. We decided not to return to this restaurant, it is not worth going for the food and not feeling welcome, having to accept bad treatment and pay for this.

We ordered tofu banh mi which was okayish and penang curry with veggies which was very much okayish, since I am vegetarian I could smell and taste the fish oil in all veggies and overall. I’d not recommend. Thanks.

Delicious! Great menu with a lot of options I haven't found at other places. I always get an iced coffee to go, it's so good!Parking: Parking is available and is free for the first hour. We were on and out in an hour without feeling like we were rushing at all.

I don't know what I can write, but the food and service is the BOMB (e.g., excellent). Consistent fresh tasting food. The staff is spot on service.
