This establishment offers a more affordable dining option compared to other restaurants. While other establishments charge upwards of $60 for lunch for two, this establishment provides a meal for $20 to $25. Although the quality of the meal may not be as high as that of other restaurants, the price is significantly lower.
The price of the meal has increased from $9 to $17, which is a substantial increase. However, for the same price, you can now expect a more substantial meal at other higher quality locations compared to the broth and meat you get here also they’re a large portion is now the same size as the small

We wanted to stop by for lunch after some shopping and ordered the Vegetables Pho, Beef brisket Pho, and the Shrimp Tempura. The food came out fairly fast, and we started to eat. The Pho (soup) was delicious, and there was a good portion of brisket in the Pho. The only reason I gave it a 4 stars instead of 5 stars was the service. As we were still eating, the server dropped the check without even asking us. We had just started to eat, so I felt we were being rushed out. It wasn’t busy either. There were only a few tables, including us. I would recommend dining there, but don’t expect good service. Just go for some good Pho.

Food was below average with very cheap ingredients. Menu photos are misleading, dish #24 shows an egg included, but it’s actually an extra/side. If items in the picture aren’t included, they shouldn’t be shown. Won’t be back.

The food quality was below average. I ordered the #27 filet mignon cubes. While the beef itself wasn’t chewy, the rest of the dish was disappointing. The rice tasted like low-quality packaged rice, and the overall plate felt careless and poorly prepared. For the price, the quality and attention to detail just weren’t there.

The food is decent and reasonably priced. All of my friends got the Pho noodles which looked appealing, but I got the pork and shrimp spring rolls, and boy am I glad I did! The spring rolls were only eight dollars and were super filling. There was also peanut sauce which did not have a fishy flavor…though I like fishy flavors I understand others do not
Both outdoor and indoor seating are available and what I liked most about the restaurant was the quick and efficient service. A pretty good visit which is best with friends.

Extremely disrespectful and abusive staff.
This was one of the worst dining experiences I’ve had. The staff was not only rude but verbally abusive toward customers, using disrespectful and inappropriate language.
Being spoken to this way is completely unacceptable, especially in a customer-facing business. No one should be insulted or humiliated just for dining at a restaurant.
Food aside, the attitude alone is enough to make sure I never return. I strongly do not recommend this place!

Years ago, I used to like this place. I tried it again twice and I sadly have been disappointed. Not sure what is going on but they need to go back to their head chef and redo their menu or recipes or whatever. I hate to leave negative reviews but I’m not sure if I would return. I’m the type to ask for a box if there is left over food. I did get a box but I ended up not eating my leftovers.

We were eager to try this restaurant. The staff was nice. The food was utterly disappointing. We were served water that was slightly warmer than room temperature with no ice that tasted like tap water. The spring rolls had an unusual wrapper. They tasted like they had been cooked hours earlier and warmed in the microwave. They were dry and chewy. They left an oily residual film in our mouths. The pho broth tasted like it had been watered down. The filet mignon, onions, and mushrooms tasted like it had all been cooked separately and then tossed together. It had an oily rancid after taste. The rice was dry and tasted like it had been cooked days before. When the food was plated, the sauce from the entree and salad dressing all ran together and into the rice.
We were so surprised by how awful our meals were. We will not go back.

It’s one of the worst services I have ever experienced. I guess the waiter was not having a good day. He did not respond to me the entire time, only got a few ” en” and one time he said “ok”.
Unreal!!
The food was good, but not good enough for me to go back again.

Food is of large quantity and I’d say it tastes pretty good. However, the overall quality of food is really bad. I hope my picture is enough to tell you how hard those noodle pieces were.
Service is non existence. I have dined in a couple of times in the past year. With the exception of one person, no one cares to be a server. They point with their head. They don’t check up on you. If you need to ask for refills or extra sauce or just anything, you have to track them down and even then, they say you wait. Getting a check? Picking up your food? Yeah good luck. You will be neglected and your food will be thrown to you. They were busy watching something on their phone and talking to each other.
If you are already in the spectrum shopping, I’d recommend doing a to go order(taste is decent and quantity is large). Otherwise, this is not a good place for dine in.
