The food here is fabulous always fresh and delicious. The restaurant is clean but not a great atmosphere. It could benefit with some music.

I wish I could agree with others who had good experiences. It took me 45 minutes to get and eat a couple of good imperial rolls, and some inferior pho, even though the restaurant was virtually empty. I finally gave up on waiting for service and went up to the counter to order, and after they delivered the pho no one came to check to see if it was OK. It wasn’t. instead of the proper herbs a few torn lettuce leaves were floating in it. The only condiments provided were bean sprouts and lime, which is fine but not enough. I expected herbs at the least. The proportion of noodles seemed excessive to me. I’ve eaten this dish many times in other area, restaurants, and been very pleased with it. This experience cost me $23 so I can’t even agree that the food was very inexpensive.

One of my long time favorites in the area. We visit family a few times a year and prioritize Viet Thai on our places to grab a meal at. Food is fresh and delicious and the family that runs it is very nice!

We love Viet Thai. Such fresh and delicious food. Family owned and very consistently good. One of our favorite places.

We ordered takeout. The pad thai was good, but the crepe was burnt on one side and mushy on the other. The young person at the counter was rude and kept throwing things my way on the counter... the paper to sign, the pen, as well as the food that was haphazardly packed in a box. I don't expect to be waited on hand and foot, I just expect the person behind the counter to be polite to me. Unfortunately, I don't have many reasons to go back...

We went there recently for the first time and will go back for the great food. The veggies are really fresh and tender crisp. The atmosphere is very clean but some areas within sight are cluttered and piled high. (put up some curtains, de-clutter or move the stuff.) The woman who ?served? us was obviously not interested in working or being a pleasant waitress. She sat by the cash register and combed her eyelashes, adjusted her makeup for about 10 minutes and flicked her hair. Her cell phone was a constant. To top things off, I asked her some basics between the yellow, red and green curries. She said she didn't have a clue and HATED curry. Plus, she could not get an answer to our questions from anyone. Two other customers left after their meal and as they walked out said good-by and thanked them for a great meal. This waitress didn't even acknowledge them to return the pleasantries, although clearly she was very close by and could hear them. But I have to admit, those veggies were fresh and wonderfully prepared.

I’m sorry but this has to be said but the food was bland and tasteless. Definitely not even close to a 4 or 5 star experience. Fried spring rolls were the highlight of the food ordered and the were greasy and gross. The Beef tendon soup had no authentic Vietnamese spices at all . No star anise, no cloves, no cinnamon, and had barely any meat or tendon. Very lack luster and full of MSG. The veggie dish had no brown sauce, no spice, no flavor. Complete an utter disappointment. So sad and totally wasted $40 on sub par Vietnamese food. Never again.
