I really liked the noodles and spring rolls and crispy egg rolls that we got.
Everything came out hot and fresh, and the portion sizes were pretty good.
My mom actually likes that noodle place better than other recent spots we’ve been to that are more highly rated on Yelp (#iykyk) if you know, you know.
There are many parking spots around there.
And afterwards, there are dessert places and other shops that you can go to for after eats.
Enjoy.
Overall, the food was only ok. Egg rolls were delicious and served with lettuce. The pho was a disappointment though. Broth was light and tasted watery. The noodles were in clumps (old and mushy) and precut making using chopsticks impossible. The thai tea was brewed and not from a can.
Service was fast but not great. We didn’t get water refills until after we were done eating and they delivered the right dishes we ordered but to the wrong people at the table and had us do our own rearranging of food.
Prices are on the high side and Definitely not worth what you get. I’d say try it once if you haven’t but I Unfortunately will not be a repeat customer.
I am a pho-king pho maniac. I love Pho. I could eat Pho everyday every meal every year. My wife calls me pho-king crazy. Okay i’ll stop.
I’ve tried almost every single pho restaurant in South Bay. And I take pho rating very seriously simply because pho was what got me surviving through college as a poor college kid. There are only a handful that I could really say good.
I would give this place a solid 4.0 out of 5.0. But I feel like it’s going to get better after the soft opening.
Broth
Pho broth is known for personalization per chef. It really is the only part that allows pho chefs to truly show off their recipe. This place’s broth was, if I have to describe, “clean.” I like my broth like the restaurant boiled a whole beef legs in a lava boiling water. But sometimes, I do appreciated clean, not too strong taste broth as well. This place has all of spices correct and but less oily.
Noodle
This might be an unpopular opinion but I do like harder and chewy noodle than “just right” soft. I don’t know why. This place has slightly harder noodle so I definitely did not complain!
Meat
I might have to deduct a point on this part. Their meat was a bit dry.
Size
One of things that really made me happy was their size. I ate a large size and a lot of places these day do not serve large. Large is supposed to fill you up with good amount of meat and veggies. This place served it right. I was very full!
Overall Experience
I would definitely come back!
Week2: Pho soup with three meats (P1)
Beef broth deliciously tasty.
Third week in a row, trying other menu items: crispy pork belly sandwich (M2), and mixed salad with grilled pork (A7). Quick service improvement; many customers were doing take-outs, house-full to capacity, served items very tasty (light and simple).
I rarely write reviews, but after dining at this incredible Vietnamese restaurant, I felt compelled to share my experience. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the owner, whose genuine friendliness set the tone for the entire meal. You could immediately feel the pride and love that goes into both the food and the service here.
We started with the spring rolls, which were absolutely fresh and perfectly rolled—crisp vegetables, plump shrimp, and a peanut dipping sauce that was rich, nutty, and flavorful. A great appetizer that already had us excited for more.
Next came the pho, and let me just say—this might be the best pho I’ve had outside of Vietnam. The broth was incredibly fragrant and full of depth, clearly simmered for hours. The meat was tender, and the noodles were cooked just right. It was the kind of bowl that warms you from the inside out.
We also ordered the bun bò Huế, and wow—what a showstopper! Bold, spicy, and full of complex flavors. The balance of lemongrass, chili, and beef was masterfully done. It’s a dish that not every Vietnamese place gets right, but here, it was absolutely on point.
What made the experience even more memorable was the hospitality. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, constantly checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. They were knowledgeable about the menu and clearly cared about creating a positive dining experience.
The owner came by our table to chat with us, and it was obvious how passionate he is about the food and making every guest feel like family. You don’t get that kind of personal touch everywhere.
This restaurant is a true gem. Whether you’re a long-time fan of Vietnamese cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place will not disappoint. Delicious food, generous portions, outstanding service, and an atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. We’ll absolutely be back—and bringing friends next time!
The food was great, the boba was great, the service was also great.
Highly recommend it if you are looking for a good soup.
