The food is severely average. The people seem nice enough. But this place is beyond filthy. Hard to understand how health department has not shut them down. Seriously.

Overall not my favorite place. Lead server was great and was accommodating. The food tasted uninspired. There was a Salmon + Rice dish on the menu, I had asked if they can cook the salmon plain (no sauce, no seasoning) for a toddler to eat. The salmon that came out was caramelized crusted over, and had a hint of sweetness to it. It seems as it was pre-cooked and they just washed the seasoning/sauce off of it.The broth was okay, it was missing a dimension to its flavor that I’m used to in other Pho places. The Pho Gai (chicken) was made with slices of white meat chicken, not chunks of bone-in dark meat chicken as I’m used to it other Pho Gai places, where the broth is truly immersed in the chicken umani flavor.One plus, they were serving their lunch specials even on weekends.It did the job for a meal, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here.

We love supporting the local business. Staff is friendly., services prompt and the pho broth is delicious. We typically attend for the lunch special which includes a soda and appetizer roll and large broth for $14!The atmosphere is certainly not high class, but with good quality food and pricing it doesn’t have to be!

Service was quick, and the restaurant is pretty hidden and quiet. I got the crispy noodle stir fried, which had a really nice variety of vegetables and yummy sauce. My friends also liked their pho and clay pot rice. The restaurant is also sorta dark and nicer than expected.

Hands down the best spicy hue soup in all of northern VA! Excellent chicken and meatball pho too. I love starting the experience with complimentary shrimp chips and chili oil. Then an excellent bowl of hot soup (hue or pho). The service is fast and pleasant and they remember their regulars which adds a layer of pleasantry for me when I go :) they even remember our order! I highly recommend trying this spot.

Incredible food, my mom and I got beef and chicken pho, as well as spring rolls. All were fantastic and the service was quick and consistent. I also got their freshly squeezed lemonade which was definitely fresh and delicious.

I really like this place and the food. I can't say anything about authenticity but it tastes great and is a relatively fair price.

No, not the owner of this place but I tend to go here a lot because the food is very good and consistent. Ordered what I typically order but was tempted to go with the clay pot. Next time! Try this place, it's not very busy most times and service is very good too.
Good pho. Spring rolls. Reason able prices with luncheon special. Kid friendly. A nice family restaurant.

Not sure how/why this restaurant rates so highly?!?? Food was decent but overall unremarkable. None of us walked away overly impressed. The actual facilities are horribly dated and in need of a major overhaul. I went to the back of the restaurant to use the bathroom and it looks to be in shambles. No hot water to wash my hands and very dirty.

This place has a great lunch special: pho, appetizer, and soft drink for $13.95! Good service and in a cute area - on Fairfax Main Street. Luckily found parking right outside at noon on a Friday

My wife ordered lemon grass chicken and this has to be the worst Vietnamese takeout I’ve ever had. Chicken barely tastes like it has any marinade. Food is dry and bland. Hospital food tastes better. Food used to be good here, but quality has consistently fallen off. I had to throw it out and make packaged ramen for dinner.
