Très bonne pho, excellent bouillon. Un peu plus chère mais très généreuse. Beaucoup, beaucoup de boeuf. Les rouleaux printaniers sont aussi excellents.

Tout est une question de goût.. & les goûts ce discute pas.. Bref très très moyen mais la qualité des aliments est bien & portion très généreuse pour le prix. Première fois je mange se genre de soupe & ça m'invite pas vraiment à réessayer. Je préfère de loin une bonne soupe Tum Yum aux crevettes..! Chacun ses goûts... Ou sinon la serveuse ma mal conseiller par rapport à mes goûts personnels mais encore la j'ai vraiment pas été impressionner. Je serai pas sévère dans mes notes parce que je respecte les goûts de chacun & que je peux pas juger vu que c'était ma première fois avec ce type de soupe!! Mais je suis Tum Yum forever!!!!!

Petit restaurant au décor simple & service de base mais les plats y sont excellents. La viande est gouteuse & fraiche, & les soupes sont les meilleures que nous avons goûtées.

Been there a few times & I love a dish that has grilled pork in it . Sadly the service we got on that day was so so - we didn't get any tea , the waiter got lost with drinks he brought us drinks from a different table order , he forgot to keep the spoons on the table .

In Any case who cares about the service if you have great food :)

One of the few restaurants open the day my friend & I wanted to grab some food. Well, my friend really wanted some Vietnamese soup, specifically, because he wasn't feeling well & the weather was absolutely awful cold with tons of snow from a recent blizzard. It was during the Christmas holidays, we were disappointed that our favourite restaurant was closed. A passerby suggested Pho Tay Ho. Wow! We were very impressed. We both had versions of the soup. I had the seafood soup & he had the chicken soup. My friend had suggested that "seafood" soup doesn't always mean what you think, but in this case, I was very pleasantly surprised. Excellent high-quality seafood, including quite a few large shrimp, grilled & put into the soup. Wow. My friend really liked his chicken vegetable soup as well. Our only disappointment was the imperial rolls we ordered as appetizers. They were really small. My friend joked we should have gotten two orders each instead of two orders between us. They were good, just kind of disappointing in size.

The service was excellent. I look forward to going there again!
