The soup was warm rather than hot, & the beef was very fatty. My friend & I ended up mostly eating the vegetables & noodles. We only had a few pieces of beef because we were quite hungry.

On the positive side, the vegetables were fresh & the spring roll was good.

After leaving the restaurant, we both said the same thing - we had never had pho this bad before. 😅

Stopped in for a quick bite & was seriously impressed. The food is legit-super fresh herbs & plenty of meat. The servers are really attentive to make sure everything was okay. It's rare to get this kind of service at a casual spot. Big fans!

Highly recommend the bun bo hue & their imperial rolls. Generous portions & the food comes out pretty quick.

The bun bo hue is not spicy, so I highly recommend adding some saté or chilli oil to it to give it an extra kick. They don't skimp on the meat & there is a good portion of noodles. Everything always tastes fresh!

It's a small & cozy restaurant, where people eat & go. So stop by if you want a comforting bowl of noodles!
