    Daily lunch specials

    I love this neighborhood establishment. We usually pop by for lunch but decided to get take out this evening on this chilly evening. The restaurant is always super clean and staff are so kind & helpful. When you walk in the door, go straight back to the counter in the back to make your order. They have large menu screens above the register, hand held laminated menus or a we code if you prefer to use that for the menu. My go to dishes are usually the pho and the hubby loves their combo fried rice. Service is quick. Food is consistently good and the atmosphere is family friendly. It's a great place to meet friends for a meal. Easy to have a conversation and not feel rushed, Tip of the day is to sign up for the rewards program, it's amazing how fast they add up.

    A grade!

    Been awhile since I been back here. I used to stop through during high school football season and grab a Banh Mi sandwich and a coffee and be in heaven! Fast forward to today when I drove by andhad to stop in my fix! I called in my order before I got there and the service got me in and out. They were super nice and communicative at the counter, great service! The sandwich....well it was a miss today. I don't know exactly what was different, but the seasoning of the chicken was not what I'm used to. It was lacking. The veggies were crisp. The bread was fresh. But the chicken wasn't seasoned the same. That hurt because this was our cheat meal and we were salivating thinking about how good it used to be. In all honesty It could've been just a miss today. At least I hope it was.

    Pho with brisket and meatballs to go was ok.

    Ordered to go. They gave me two small slices of meat along with meatballs, veggies weren't fresh. Overall, it was ok. I had better one.

    Trying this place for the 1st time! Place is very clean and neat. Waitress welcomed me in as soon as I opened the front door, which was nice. Order #9 with chicken to go. Took about 3 to 4 minutes to get my order ready and left. Overall, nice, clean, cool place to have some Asian food.

    Eveytime I come to 3 pho bowl 09 I am impressed with how clean it is. I see the workers always cleaning non stop. The customer service has always been great the cashier was patient on Friday with my big group while I helped explain the menu to them. Now to the food, I am very picky with Vietnamese food since I am half Viet. Everything is good here from the bánh mì to the gọi cuốn. My only issue personally is the pho it's not good the broth to me is a big deal and it's flavorless here. Everything else though I can say it's delicious. If I want Vietnamese food and don't feel like making it I'll come here. Really though I came to realize there's not really a foot "authentic" spot here in San Antonio. I definitely recommend in Houston!

    Sadly wouldn't come back. I got the brisket steak pho, at first glance it didn't look good... the broth color was just off. I wanted to give it a try and hoped it would be good despite appearance but I was let down. Broth was underwhelming, not much flavor in it. I had to add lots of sriracha and hoisin sauce. The portion of bean sprouts given wasn't much, which is not a big deal had everything else had better flavor and appearance. In the second close up photo you can see the texture of the brisket ??? Not too sure what that is but it looked like chewed up and spit out food. The employees were nice and attentive. Quiet setting for 12pm lunch time. Peaceful.

    As mentioned in a previous review, it smells like a nail salon and acetone because there is a nail salon next door. You first order at the counter and take a number and grab a table. Cute little place with nice Vietnamese cuisine artwork. Got the Saturday special, brisket pho and beef meatball pho. Beef meatball pho is usually my go to pho order. The biggest turn off is that the broth is sweet! I'm not sure if this is the case normally or if this batch just had an extra handful of sugar but every spoonful of the broth was more sweet tasting than beef. There was an adequate amount of noodles and beef balls and brisket with a side dish of fresh bean sprouts and Thai Basil. I would go back and try it again as it seems like a decent and clean restaurant. Perhaps next time will not have such sweet broth.

    Well, I can now add this Pho place to my top five in San Antonio. If you have been following me, you'll notice image been going around San Antonio trying Pho. Well, this is now one of my go to places. I got an order of their summer rolls, ate one there, & brought the rest home. They're very good. They don't fall apart after one bite, I appreciate that a lot. They have two pieces of shrimp in each roll. But their peanut sauce is so good. I had to get a container of it to go! Now, onto this really great pho. I always order tendon pho. Tendon is very low in fat, high protein, it is my go to choice. Some have issues with the texture. The establishments always comment when I request tendon, not something Americans care for apparently. It is my favorite. The broth they use is, honestly, the best I've had to date. It's clear, rich & super yummy. I had forgotten the Hoison & Sriracha when I started eating it, it's that kind of good. They give a nice size serving of the basil, cilantro, mungbeans, & jalapeños. Which I appreciate. I like a lot basil. I normally have to request more, but they delivered. The noodle ratio, & texture was perfection. Not too much, not over cooked, just right. The amount of tendon provided was better here than most places. Also, the tendon was not overly gelatinous, it had a good consistency & great flavor. If the tendon is over cooked, it will become very gelatinous, & stringy. It's gross then. But, they cooked it perfectly. They also have Stubborn Soda, if you saw my Ming's post, you know my love of Stubborn Soda's Root beer, it's amazing. With that stated, I did not get soda, I got unsweetened tea. I do judge places on how well they make tea. Well, this establishment makes very good tea! I'm normally a one glass girl, if I request another glass, it's good. But, if I get two refills, it's really good tea! Well, I had three glasses! It's quite good. I talked with the owner & chef to inform him how fantastic it all was, imo. Truly a good Pho place. Try them out when you're near Randolph AFB, in Schertz, or around the area. They are worth the drive. Enjoy!

    I came in after a day getting some errands done. This place is set up nice. It's quite modern with plenty of seating. Coming in, it smells like a nail salon. I realize that there is a nail salon next door, but that smell can be overwhelming. You have to pay before you choose where you want to sit. I don't like that, because if the service isn't good.....basically leaving a tip before you get served is weird for me. However the service was great. I got a steak, brisket, and meatball phó. Broth was perfect. Great flavor. I got fried Eggrolls. Those were great as well. I don't recommend the curry. They had a special for spicy chicken curry. It was extremely soupy. It wasn't spicy. I was hoping for a nice Thai style curry but was disappointed. The other items were great. I recommend the phó!

    Great service and ambience, unfortunately pho was lacking a lot. Broth was lacking significant flavor.

    Service and food couldn't be better Drive over an hour just…read moreto eat there Large amounts of food

    I'm usually in the Schertz area about once a month and was craving Thai food, so I decided to try…read moreThai Chef based on the Yelp reviews--and the fact that they're open on Mondays, which already puts them ahead of a lot of restaurants. I stopped in around 3 PM. First impression from outside wasn't great. Some of the lettering on the sign was peeling, there were a few bird nests around the exterior, and the phone number signage only showed the "210" area code. Still, the reviews were strong enough that I decided to give it a shot. Inside, the menu was surprisingly extensive, with Thai, Chinese, Pho, and sushi options. I briefly considered sushi, but figured Thai was the safer bet given the restaurant's name. One thing that stood out though was that the sushi bar itself was mostly blocked from view by decorations and bottles, so you really couldn't see the fish or prep area. Service started off well. I was seated quickly and the waiter brought menus right away. I asked him whether he preferred the red curry or the Pad Phet, but he mentioned he was new and hadn't tried either dish yet. I ended up going with the Pad Phet because it offered a combo option with chicken, beef, and shrimp. For appetizers, I ordered the Thai spring rolls and seaweed salad. The spring rolls came out quickly and were very good--crispy, fresh, and probably one of the stronger parts of the meal. My entree arrived shortly after and was also enjoyable overall. By the time I finished eating, I assumed the seaweed salad had simply been forgotten. Then, while I was trying to flag down the waiter for the check, he returned with the salad and apologized for the delay. To his credit, he acknowledged it right away. The presentation was nice, although the salad itself felt a bit underdressed. What held the experience back most for me was the overall upkeep and atmosphere. There were quite a few small things that individually wouldn't matter much, but together created a worn-down impression: peeling wallpaper in several spots, empty boxes near the entrance and wine storage area, and wine bottles arranged somewhat haphazardly. Even little details--like the obstructed sushi bar and uneven decor--added up to a space that felt less polished than it could be. Overall, I enjoyed the food and would consider stopping in again when I'm in the area, but the restaurant would really benefit from a little more attention to presentation and maintenance to better match the quality of the meal itself.
