This place would have deserved a 4+* service , however, we got a very rude & stoned face server (tall guy wearing thick dark rim glass🙄 who does not know what customer service means ). When he brought our meals to us, he did not know his dishes, got our meals mixed up & got ticked off when we asked him the number that represented the meals we ordered lol. Thank goodness for a young server named Vu whom saved the day. Thank you Vu you've done a great job.

This place offers an amazing bowl of chicken pho.

The broth is light, herbal, & incredibly flavorful. Noodles are not soggy at all & compliments the chicken perfectly.

Do not miss the Vietnamese beef tartare. It's an amazing explosion of flavors with amazingly fresh thinly sliced beef.

Though the broth was FANTASTIC, I think I ordered the wrong thing. I got #14 with beef & was disappointed. Low quantity & quality of beef & overloaded with freezer bag veggies. My girlfriend's chicken version had the same problems.

Still glad I went to experience the broth, but I would get something else. I look forward to going back to try their vermicelli.

Good service (fast as balls) & cute ambiance.

As it stands, Pho Nguyen downtown is still my fave!
