If your looking for a truly authentic food experience, look no further. The food was delicious & very authentic. It's not your typical pho flavours you are use too. It is very good, do not get me wrong, just not your typical pho taste. This is a million times better than. Highly recommend the chicken wings & Shrimp rolls.
Absolutely breathtaking, spectacular, & high-quality food I've ever had. This is the place to come for a cozy, warm, & filling meal. It's truly authentic with amazing service. I will be recommending this place to all of my friends & family!!

This was our third visit, & once again, we had such a lovely experience. Besides the delicious food, we especially came back to see Ms. Ngoc - a truly friendly, warm, & lovely server - who often worked in dayshift. Her kindness & positive energy really make a difference & are hard to find elsewhere. We hope to see her back again soon. Such a great team!
Called about 20 minutes ahead for a group of 4. When we arrived, the place was packed - full house - & yet we were seated immediately with no wait. That alone deserves a mention.
This was actually my fourth visit, & it continues to deliver. Ordering was quick, the menu is simple & straight to the point, & the real star here is the food.
There was a new item on the menu: Mì Bò Kho - braised beef with egg noodles. Even with the restaurant being slammed, the food quality was solid & consistent. Their condiment tray is really good & honestly sets them apart from other pho spots - it elevates everything on the table.
One hiccup: one dish for our group of four was forgotten. After a quick reminder, it came out, & they kindly added a complimentary chè thanh nhi?t, which was a nice gesture & appreciated.
Yes, service was on the slower side - but given how busy it was, it was completely understandable.
The bill? Under $30 per person, taxes & tip included. Hard to beat.
Will I come back? Yes.
Do I recommend it? Absolutely.
My go-to recommendations:
Bún Bò Hu? (BBH)
Their tamarind spicy paste - don't skip it.
Solid spot, good value, & consistent food even under pressure.
