This place was a fantastic find for lunch on the drive back to Texas. Their Bahn Mi is a little pricey but worth the price. The chicken breast was tender and seasoned well. I also tried the fresh rolls and those were delicious! Fresh and flavorful. My son loved them as well! We ordered online and our order was ready promptly at the time estimated. The shop itself is a good size located in an older strip mall. read more

As a Vietnamese person, and someone who used to work at a pho shop -- plus my family owned a business -- I understand how hard and difficult it is to open and run a restaurant here as an immigrant. Because of that, I usually don't write bad reviews. But I'm writing this because I genuinely want the owner to read it and understand. I love my culture and our food, and everywhere I go I always try Vietnamese restaurants. I chose this place because it looked like a mom-and-pop shop, and I really like supporting local businesses. We dined in during lunchtime, and it wasn't very busy, so we got seated right away. We ordered: - Rice with Grilled Beef: it tasted good and the portion was decent. We added a fried egg on top for $2.45. Everything was okay, but the color of the pickled vegetables didn't look fresh to me. - Vermicelli with Grilled Shrimp, Pork, and Egg Rolls: also a decent bowl, no big complaints. But I asked for no bean sprouts, the server repeated it to confirm, and it still came out with bean sprouts. Now here's the part that really disappointed me. Everywhere I've been, when you order a rice plate, it usually comes with a small side of soup. This place didn't, so we decided to order one. I knew we would be charged for it, and that's fine. But $8 for a small bowl of beef broth -- barely around 4 oz -- is honestly outrageous. I understand pho broth takes a lot of time, effort, ingredients, and experience. I respect that. But this? This didn't feel reasonable at all. I'm not expecting anything to be given for free just because I'm Vietnamese and I speak Vietnamese when I order. Even if they offered, I wouldn't take it. That's not the point. The point is, I felt really disappointed -- because this is my own people, and it made me feel like I got taken advantage of by my own people. I'm speaking up like this not to bash a small business, but because I want them to understand: every dollar customers spend is money they work hard for. You shouldn't take advantage of that or use excuses to raise prices like this. And what made it worse is that I've heard from locals who've been there and personally know the owner that "they only do that to people from out of town." That honestly made me even more upset. You might make extra money from one visit, but you lose trust permanently. read more

Hesitant to post but I feel the owner needs to know. Actually advised her too. Ordered beef pho and bun Bo hue. The portion was incredibly not appropriate for the prices they charge. My son was still hungry after his bowl. Literally I counted the slices of meat and it's less than a kid's portion. I had to ask for our drinks. Food came out before the drinks. I understand inflation but this is incredibly disappointing. I used to own a restaurant do understand completely but this beyond ridiculous. Ordered 2 bowls and a coke. $50+ Not about the price because it's not about that. Don't mind paying for good food but this is very much taking advantage of customers. read more

Super yummy spot! And wow the size of the spring rolls are as amazing as they taste! Will have to go again! We didn't have one thing that was bad. Everyone was so nice to. read more

Easy to see why the restaurant was empty. Service was surly. Couldn't accommodate a simple request that I literally get at every other VN restaurant. The waitress wouldn't even try to find out how much a small cup of broth would cost. Along with shaking beef and spring rolls. Dark, dingy, empty is a bad sign. read more

Good spot to get some pho or spicy beef noodle soup (bun Bo hue) when you don't want to cook all day long. read more

I imagine this is a new restaurant because there are still some kinks that need to be ironed out like an "open" sign was off when the spot was indeed open, and the owner does not allow tap water to be served. Weird, right? The service was fast. The food was refreshingly different from what you'd expect in LA. Not the best Vietnamese, but clean flavors in the pho broth (tasted like a quick broth, though), fresh ingredients, and tasty drinks, just don't ask for tap water. read more

Another amazing find in what has to date been an exotic food desert! The owner is Vietnamese, and one can definitely taste it in the food. I've enjoyed vermicelli bowls and stirfry tofu here so far, and as soon as my fast has ended, I shall be diving into a large bowl of phò, which I suspect will rival the excellent phò I already found at Viet House. It's a storefront restaurant, so it may not look like much, but it is definitely authentic and worth a try. Service is lovely. read more

The food is fresh and well seasoned. The service is great. It's a small space, but plenty of table space for dining in. I enjoyed the quiet setting making it easy to talk. read more

I'm thrilled that we have phở in West Monroe, and even happier that they're thoughtful enough to include choices for that rarest of West Monrovian, the vegetarian! The people working here know me by name and they're so kind. And I literally have enjoyed everything I've had here, both dining in and taking it home. read more

Delicious beef pho. I've had the chicken and it is good as well. I also love their banh mi pork sandwich and milk tea with boba.

There is limited seating here at this restaurant and the tables that were available weren't real clean. The service was lousy or at least our server was. She had a horrible attitude and spoke to other customers this way as well. There was another server who came by to check on us and she was super sweet. Their saving grace is that the food was good. We had the spicy noodle with beef and a pork banh mi sandwich. The broth in the soup was great with wonderful spice. The beef was a little tough but edible. The banh mi is a must get. Will definitely be coming back but only ordering to go. I would rather dine at home if I have to wait on myself. read more

A great place that fills a need in our area. Had the traditional pho, will be back often!

Great place! Owners and employees were all very nice. Food and drinks were amazing. Very chill atmosphere.

In town for work and found this small pho place. Ordered their beef pho with pork egg rolls as appetizer. The broth was fragrant and sweet. There are not many places that I don't have to add hoisin sauce to the broth. The egg rolls were good but a bit wet/oily on the inside. Could just be how the filling is made. Service was great. Everyone greeted me with a smile. Food came out quick and hot. Would definitely go back to try other items. read more

Fantastic Pho! The broth was excellent, and there was a good amount of beef for the price. We will be back!

the place is unorganized, the owner is absolutely terrible. took over an hour for a bubble tea because the "owner wasn't at the store yet to make the teas" but they continued to take orders for them. I tried calling and they had me on hold for over 30 minute. The owner was even yelling at her employees. Don't support this place. Very sketchy read more
