The food was awful. The Pad Thai tasted like ketchup. Who puts green beans into fried rice? It wasn’t even fried, it was steamed. 🙁 The egg rolls and pot stickers were overcooked as was the meat in the spring roll. The food was so bland. The employees were friendly but so, so unorganized. It used to be amazing when we lived in Yelm 7 years ago…so disappointed.

Absolutely Not! I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone I liked or cared for. I would though, like to thank the person I spoke with over the phone. They were able to right my order and threw in an extra sauce when we came back to pick up missing items. I felt the flavor was lacking and everything was over cooked. The rice was old/re-cooked (fried rice dish), and the protein was either missing from (what was described) or tiny bits of over cooked, hard to chew, with a jerky type of consistency. The order was $70 dollars or so. I am by no means mentioning the price because I felt it wasn’t fair. I do think when money is spent, the product should be worth the price, regardless of the cost. Also, I believe businesses grow/get better when reviews are both good and not so good.

We would give this place 4.5 stars. The service was great. The decor is a bit bland, but the restaurant itself was clean. 3 people had the Pho, 1 spicy 2 regular. I had the teriyaki, and lastly 1 had the Pad Tai. All the food was delicious and filling. We had the spring rolls for an appetizer and they were really good. They are much bigger than i expected and the peanut sauce is really good. The server was really nice and kind. He was a younger gentlemen with black rim glasses. We would definitely come back. Avg spent per person was about 18 with appetizers, 15 without. I would recommend this place for Asian cuisine.

I had pho and boba here to warm up while my power was out for a few days in December.
The building itself is quite old and desperately needs updates. They have a huge TV with a talk show (quietly, but audible) on that I honestly appreciated since I hadn’t had power for awhile. If you’re looking for a fancier atmosphere this is definitely not it, but to me it was cozy.
The pho was good and a generous size, the boba was authentically strong on the tea-flavor side, but a little “thin”/watery in my opinion; could use more cream & topping options.

I cannot get enough of their spring rolls and peanut sauce! Its so good! The pho here is good too. My boys always get the spicy bowls but I like most of their dishes here! Be prepared to not get great table side service or much service at all. I have been here multiple times and often have to go to the front to ask for a refill on drinks, or anything we may want or need. Aside from that the foods good and I enjoy eating here.

This place used to be great once upon a time. I would drive all the way to yelm from other cities just to get some food here. I don’t know if they had a management change or what, but their food and service have gone way down. I ordered food for pick up at a specified time I was there during the specified time. The food was already waiting on the counter when I got there. It was cold, like warm at best. I complained about it and they took the food to fix it. I am pretty certain they just reheated the food. It wasn’t good, the recipes have changed. I was missing items and I had to fight with them to even get it apparently reheated and not even replaced. I had 2 side pho and they literally gave me broth, thyme, jalapeno and bran sprouts the rice was hard and crispy and nothing was up to the standard this business used to have. I would not recommend wasting your money I spent almost 60$ and ended up throwing away almost everything.

If I could leave zero stars, I would. I don’t normally leave reviews, but this was exceptionally bad. My husband and I ordered the fried rice and pad Thai. The pad Thai was ketchup with rice noodles. My husband’s rice tasted old and was bland. Both dishes were completely inedible.

I was extremely disappointed. I have never received such a small amount of meat when order pho. The flavor wasn’t terrible. Not the best not the worst. But I certainly would expect more meat than 5 thin slices. Staff was extremely friendly though.

Having traveled to Hanoi, Vietnam 6 months ago and have tried Michelin star rated Vietnamese cuisine. I can genuinely say I was very impressed with the Pho here! I was hesitant to go based off of the recent reviews. But Im new to the area and didn’t know the restaurant before. Im so glad that I decided to go. I ordered a spring roll and beef pho. I was not impressed by the spring roll and rate it 3/10 as it lacked sustenance and flavor. However the Beef Pho made up for it completely. The service was very quick and customer service friendly. Until I find better, I definitely will be coming back. It’s one of the only reasonably priced restaurants for quality that I’ve experienced in Washington so far.

Interesting location for a pho restaurant, but had to give it a go since it was in town. The inside looks like it needs to be remodeled, because it looks very plain. The service was good, and was greeted upon entering. The pho on the other hand was pretty bland, and almost too greasy. It felt like the noodles were just sliding through my chopsticks. The egg rolls were good, and came out hot. I would save my money though and go to Seattle for a better bowl of pho.
