No frills spot for a quick, large meal. The portions are enormous.

Excellent pho (5/5) with large portions, reasonable prices, and friendly staff. The pho had great beef flavor and was huge for only $14. The spring rolls (5/5) were also excellent – piping hot and completely filled with meat. Their Vietnamese iced coffee (4/5) while mostly ice was great too. Highly recommend.

One of my favorite places to get dinner. If you want some pho, this place is perfect in every way. I wouldn’t dare to try a different restaurant. The staff was very friendly and the service was pretty fast. If you don’t eat pork make sure you ask the waiter what kinda broth they use. Overall the place was amazing. Highly recommended.

Not sure what’s in the house avocado sauce but OMG I loved it! I put it on every dish I had. Portions are very generous and service is great.

Just left a delicious dinner at Sao Mai and my tummy is full and happy. Every single dish was delicious. Spring rolls were crispy and filled with delicious pork. The shrimp was hot and crispy, so were the wings. The bahn mi sandwich was 10/10. The rice was flavorful and was the perfect compliment to the squid, shrimp and marinated pork. I love that everything came out piping hot and fresh. You can tell (and taste) that everything here is made with lots of love. My daughter is a picky eater and she tried and liked all of the food. The service was friendly and efficient. It felt like we were a part of the family just over for dinner. I will definitely be back. My only regret is that we live too far away to order takeout.

Got the bun sao mai and the pho chin nam. Both were great but I personally preferred the bun sao mai. The pho broth tasted very clean and light.
