Pho was good, not the best I've had, but fairly decent. The broth tastes like it's missing something, but besides that, it's good. Portions were good as well.

Absolutely the worst pho soup ever!! tasted rotten, and tough!! Thought it would come as a ready made soup. Had to cut up all the tough, rotten meat and put soup together. Ordered spring rolls , they were not good either. Other place in Smokey Point so much better.

Stopped by for dinner. We both had the Vermicelli bowl one beef and of chicken. They were fresh and delicious. The beef was tasty and had a perfect char to it. The sauce they had on the table side was excellent. They also came with egg rolls in the bowl. The service was good. The food was excellent. I will return.

Ordered to go. Added a to go fee. And per order to go fee.
Asked for hoisen sauce on side and they mixed Sriracha nd hoisen in same container and when called to ask they told me that was standard. Never had them flat oit lie and refuse to make it right. Eat in everett all the time and had a great experience but the to go service was very unprofessional. The call to them went unanswered and just made me feel as if I made the wrong to go choice. Will not be coming back and will tell my friends to not go either. Horrible Horrible Horrible.

Typical looking Vietnamese restaurant on the outside and inside, although inside did seem pretty clean, which was nice. Service was quick and attentive. Booth are comfortable! The food was great! I I very much enjoyed the pork vermicelli dish as well as the tofu spring rolls. Everything seemed very fresh and was very flavorful. $38 total for lunch for 2 after tip not bad. Would come back for sure.

The believe this place has the good and the bad. Let’s start with the good!
(TLDR: Great tasting food. Terrible pricing on To go orders and terrible service for to go members.)
Their food was amazing and delicious. I would say it’s the best pho taste spot in Marysville/Arlington. I ordered the steak vermicelli noodle plate and a side order of thee egg drop soup. The vermicelli plate was cooked great good portions of meat and veggies with good portion of noodles. The egg drop is probably my favorite egg drop soup I’ve tasted with the right amount of creamy goodness.
The atmosphere was busy and very clean and tidy. I’d say this place is perfect for those looking to be able to sit down and talk with one another without having to yell across the table.
The bad is simply the pricing. Their menus at first glance have fair pricing to the area. Although what I don’t like is their to go pricing and service for to go orders. While dining in you are offered standard prices a good pho bowl and some high priced appetizers. The to go prices for items have a .75 cents fee added onto the price of each item and then you are charge with another to-go fee at the end. When I first showed up it took them some time to notice me waiting to be seated and when I finally was sat and ordered, they did not give any estimates on time to which my order would be out. When the food was finally ready they brung it out in a bag all ready to go they were quick to pull up the pay menu. Which again the pricing is not great.
Please take everything I said in this review with a grain of salt as I may be the outlier. I do hope they sort out their pricing and customer service issues as this place is 50% close to 5 stars. I hope this review helped in some way.
