The other day, I finished trying all of the phở places I could find in Fitchburg and Leominster,…read moreand a majority of places in Worcester. I felt that it was appropriate for me to come back here and see if my (and my wife's!!) opinions on phở have changed in the past year. I actually live down the street from this place, and despite being in very close proximity I've only been here... 4 times? Located in a small strip mall right next to the N Main Street, Leominster Dunkin' Donuts, this place has been a solid fixture that I've passed by nearly every day since I could even remember anything. Google AI Overview tells me they've been open since 1998. With that said, the parking is a pain since it requires diagonal parking and little room for error when backing out. It's a shared lot between a few other businesses too, so I don't really understand how they can manage on busy days. I've only come here for dinner and the place has a nice, very dim atmosphere. This seems exactly the kind of spot to bring your partner out for a quiet dinner; I don't think I heard anyone else around us talking lol. The waiting staff were friendly and attentive but I can't help but feel disappointed that no one speaks Vietnamese; they said they were all Hmong. Anyways... Sparkling Salty Plum Drink ; this drink is always delicious in every place and this quality matches all others. and I'm always left wanting more. recommended. Gỏi Cuốn ; Vietnamese salad (or fresh) rolls. I order this at every restaurant that serves it. I have to be candid here - this is the worst one I've had out of the dozens of Asian restaurants I've eaten in. These rolls were mostly lettuce, so the crispy and watery texture is all you can taste and feel. The peanut sauce was also the most flavorless I've tried as well. For the first time ever my wife had to scoop a decent amount onto her roll just to taste something - she always dunks the teeniest tiniest corner at other places. Do. Not. Recommend. Phở Bò Viên ; this was the first phở spot I brought my wife and both of us agreed... we did not like the phở here. Have our opinions changed? Not really. The broth is very light with a delicate beef flavor. I could see myself enjoying this in the spring time if I was looking for a light lunch. As I got further in the bowl the tangy and oniony flavor really comes out and I'm left finding it unpleasant. Upon first taste before I dug in, my wife still found the broth too sour. This place also has the samn damn problem as many others: the noodles are TOO narrow and slippery and they rob most of the volume of the bowl. And you better eat it fast before it's too soggy. The meatballs here were way tougher than other phở places. Hủ Tiếu Nam Vang ; this was my wife's choice and off the bat she said this bowl is too sweet. That's actually crazy since she finds most places to be too salty and too sour. I took a sip of it and had to agree. The broth is light but has a strong seafood-forward and sweet taste. She managed to eat all of it, but she really had to alter the bowl with lime juice and Sriracha to make it palatable. Overall, we didn't particular like our last visit, and our minds haven't really changed after giving it another shot. Maybe I'll come back some other time to try the rice dishes.

I usually give it a 5+ hoping it would have a scale of even 10 but today I can't. We went on Thursday around 3 o'clock ordered our normal full with tender steak and faux with brisket. My brisket was very tough and needed salt desperately. I have to say this is the first time I've ever complained about the food. The broth has always was out of this world. We've been lucky that we've always been waited on by the owner. She's absolutely a delight, always smiling and just a positive individual. We had a new waitress Thursday. Fairly young and sad to say didn't seem very happy to be there. The service was OK just not very friendly. We will go back as we have always had a really good meal here this being the first time we weren't 110% satisfied

Without that, it resembled a slightly richer bowl of pho with wider rice noodles. Not bad as a noodle soup on its own terms, but it isn't an actual Bun Bo Hue. I also ordered spring rolls ($7). These had both shrimp and some tofu-meat approximation - not the new-age plant-based stuff, mind you, but the sort of fake meat that Buddhists have refined and perfected over a millennia of not eating meat. The rice paper was a bit chewy, but not yet stale.

My son loved his Pha, my curry was delicious (spicy, but just enough to wake up your mouth while eating, not so much to cause you to pause or sweat), and my husband kept raving about the egg on his dish, saying he would have liked 2 or 3 of them. We enjoyed a very good meal! My only comment is that there was only one man taking orders and serving, so be patient; he really could have used someone to help out. I definitely recommend this little spot, I know we will be back.

The tofu sandwich was equally flavorful. The tofu, marinated in a not too spicy soy sauce, was crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

It is take out only, but there is one single table inside where you're welcome to eat if it's available. They offer bubble tea, smoothies, Vietnamese coffee, bahn mi, fresh rolls, bun (vermicelli bowl), pho and ramen. I ordered a chicken bun, my friend got a Cajun chicken banh mi and we both got Vietnamese coffee. You can watch the bahn mi being made and when the fresh roll is cut open you can see the steam come out of it from still being warm. All the ingredients are very carefully placed into the roll and it's wrapped to go. My friend ate hers while we waited for my bun so she could enjoy the fresh warmth of the roll. She loved it! My bun was great too with fresh, crisp veggies, chicken, vermicelli, basil, cilantro and topped with chopped peanuts & Sriracha because I wanted it spicy; it also came with a yummy sauce on the side. I enjoyed the coffee, but my friend found hers to be a bit too sweet for her liking. The food does take a bit long, particularly my bun, but it's made fresh & definitely worth the wait!

Our friend tried the Rice Bowl with Steak and Shrimp and a Bao Bun which was delicious. My mom loved her sandwich. The bread alone was enough to make me decide that I must try one next time. My Pho broth was well flavored. The chicken pieces were slightly smaller than what I'm used to from other places, but there was plenty to enjoy. There was an adequate amount of noodles, basil, sprouts and jalapeños. My Summer Roll, while quite enjoyable, was a little difficult to eat. I'm used to having my roll cut in half and this was served whole. The wrapper started to fall apart at one point, but I made sure that I didn't lose anything.
