This restaurant is amazing! The food is super delicious and truly authentic. You can tell they put a lot of care into every dish.The Saigon-style pho was fantastic. The broth was rich and flavorful, and the meat was perfectly cooked. The meat with vegetables was just as great. Everything was fresh, juicy, and full of flavor. Each dish came out hot and smelled incredible, like a little trip to Vietnam.The service was excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I will definitely be back and highly recommend this place to everyone!

This was a pleasant surprise of a restaurant. The interior design far exceeded my expectations. I haven’t tried many Vietnamese restaurants- this was quite nice: the food was delicious and the presentation made it a great experience. The bathrooms could use a little updating to match the decor and general vibe - but the food was delightful- I would dine here again. I even saw another item on the menu I would like to try!

We got an appetizer wonton soup, spring rolls, and bahn mi sandwiches. The soup was delicious and flavorful! Wontons were big. Spring rolls were full of herbs and veggies with a nice peanut sauce. The sandwiches come in either 6 or 12 inch, I got a 12 inch grilled chicken. The bread was soft and the fillings were perfect. I can’t wait to come back and try the pho!!

What a nice surprise! We just randomly selected this place and turned out to be such a great treat! We were welcomed by Le, he was super nice and great sense of humor. The food was amazing, their spicy level is up to my liking we’ll definitely come back again!

I always get take out.READ THE ENTIRE THING.The service is bad. Like, so bad that the front desk told me they just stopped taking orders online randomly and sometimes have to call twice to call in for food because the phone doesn’t get answered. Got lightly scolded for asking for no bean sprouts.I eat here regularly because I’m scared the wacky stuff they do is gonna eventually put them out of business and I don’t know what I’ll do if that happens.The food is excellent, made with so much love, the staff is endearingly bad at take out orders and painful on the phone with getting my order right, despite me ordering 3-4 days a week for the exact same thing.I absolutely love this business and the food. They keep me laughing and I hope to God they’re open for forever.They also added those little sesame treats twice as an apology for making me wait, they’re truly the sweetest people with the best of intentions, and they make the best pho around.Worth calling again if they don’t answer, they’re the best.Definitely the brisket pho. It’s the best. Leave some for me.
