To be honest, nothing really stood out. The food was okay, but not memorable enough to make me want to come back. The customer service was also quite minimal - not bad, but not welcoming either.

What disappointed me the most was the portion of meat. I ordered the curry chicken with rice & vegetables, as well as the fried noodles with chicken & shrimp. Both dishes came with very little protein - only about 3 pieces of shrimp, & the chicken portion was also quite small. It felt like we were mostly paying for vegetables rather than the main ingredients.

I've been to other Vietnamese restaurants, & for a similar price, you can definitely get better portions & more satisfying plates elsewhere.

Overall, it's not terrible, but there's nothing that would make me return.

I was highly impressed with the quality of the food. The vietnamese pork chop with white rice was pretty good. The runny fried egg really adds this authentic feel to it. The fried banana was just ok. The service was a little bit slow as the place was packed with customers going in & out at a good pace.

The staff was friendly & the service was fast. Our soup arrive fresh & hot. It's a family restaurant, very original Vietnamese pho restaurant. Our orders come with free hot tea. There's only street parking. They accept cash & credit.

I visited for dinner.
The service is very fast & the staff are attentive.
I ordered the chicken & shrimp rice rolls. They were delicious, especially with the accompanying peanut butter sauce.
I also ordered pho ga (chicken pho) but I was surprised that the chicken was fried chicken that was cut into pieces. My experience with chicken pho from the many pho restaurants I've been to in different cities in the US & Europe that the chicken comes in thin slices & boiled rather than fried. I also didn't expect the soup to have vegetables like carrots, cauliflower, & broccoli. Although I think it was healthy to have them, but again this was unlike the previous similar dishes I had in other Vietnamese restaurants. Also, the broth was kinda bland. I had to add soy sauce to make it a bit flavorful.
The prices were okay.
