There's also plenty of outdoor seating, which was perfect for us. I came with a group of 14 and we were seated outside right away. Luckily the weather was amazing, so it made for a really nice dining experience. The scenery was aesthetic and the service was impeccable. I ordered a customized pho bowl with beef slices, tripe, and tendon. The broth tasted authentic and flavorful. As someone used to Houston pho, I was actually impressed. I also didn't leave feeling super thirsty afterward, which usually tells me the broth isn't loaded with MSG. Their milk tea boba was pretty good too. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this spot to tourists or anyone looking for a solid bowl of pho.

I arrived seeking a vegan bun hue, a spicy lemongrass soup. I was told this was not available, but…read morethe vegetarian menu nonetheless had some worthwhile selections on it. My lemongrass tofu arrived sizzling in a hot bowl, and possessed an abundance of flavor. It came with a size of aromatic jasmine rice and separate vegetables, some of which I liked and some I did not want, but at least having them separated gave me the ability to choose. My green Thai tea was strongly flavored and something sweet gave me a bigger charge than I anticipated. As I was hungry, adding some rolls was not a bad decision. There is a great vegetarian Vietnamese restaurant in the suburbs, but for anyone who wants to be in downtown Alexandria, this place has some quality to offer.

About a 1-1.5: Not sure what is going on with Noodle Box, but their consistency in terms of the…read morefood preparation and flavors, along with their drink menu, needs a lot of work. We have enjoyed this semi-fast casual Thai eatery for their noodle dishes and their teas - however, the noodles have been constantly overcooked, being gummy and overly 'swollen'; the sauces are hardly dressing any of the ingredients. The drinks, in which we usually find refreshing, are super watered down and flavored with artificial syrups, making them undrinkable. We have left tossing multiple items, as they were just inedible. In addition, the space just has this unpleasant sewage-like odor, which isn't great if you plan on dining in. Staff are pretty friendly. No dice, Noodle Box.

Rating only as a coffee shop, I was quite pleased with my cup of Joe, where it was full-bodied,…read moresmooth and with no harsh notes. Service was quick where I enjoyed my cup outside on one of their tables adjoining the business. Besides coffee, they would appear to serve the full assortment of drinks you would expect to see in a barista type operation as well as sandwiches where they serve breakfast and lunch during the course of the day. Nice! Overall, if you're looking for a quick cup of coffee that is not a chain coffee then this is an excellent option for you especially if you are in the area. The other key thing to note is this shop opens at 6 AM Monday through Friday so if you're an early riser like I am, keep that in mind.

AMBIANCE: I came here to meet up with a new friend for a…read morequick morning bite. It was the perfect spot to do just that. you walk in and can feel the spot is a neighborhood gem. that being said, i felt like a slight outsider being new there--not a them thing, just a me thing :). They deff have regulars. It's smal and cozy; the furniture is mismatched and i LOVE that. Now, if you have customer-anxiety, i like to call it, i would deff look at the menu beforehand so you know what to order. I walked in and there was a couple sitting closest to the cash register and i was like "oup!! can't take too long. everyone knows i'm here and i need to make a quick decision" so i just ordered quickly without really the taking time to look at the menu (whenever i go to new coffee spots i like i choose a fun, unique drink if they have it and i just derped). SERVICE: The owners were running the cash register on a saturday morning. I love me some business owners! So it made me happy to support this business. they were quick, kind, and efficient. The drink was made QUICKLY! I was in and out in under 8 mins. So saturday morning around 10:30am/11am -- i got quick service. FOOD: The iced coffee was so yum. I got a small iced vanilla latte. It was honestly perfectly. I like my iced coffees sweet but not too sweet. I didn't have to add anything but i could still taste the coffee profile. it was a joy to drink. for a bite to eat, i had the corn muffin (pretending to make myself feel better about eating something "healthy"). It was AMAZING. Totaled around 11 bucks. Definitely crumbled easy while eating it, as I was breaking pieces off with my hands while I chatted. All in all, i'd come again for sure.

I stopped in for a quick lunch. it wasn't terribly busy aside from the friendly regulars who were eating at the table next to me. The service was timely and hospitable as I was able to order quickly and was offered drink refills pretty routinely throughout my time there. Their menu features appetizers like summer rolls, veggie gyoza, crab & chicken shumai, and entrees like lemongrass pan fried noodles, broccoli stir fry, pad thai, and lo mein with your choice of protein as prices range from about $10-$20 per item. I kept it simple and tried the fried rice with pork. Overall excellent dish: large portion size, a sufficient amount of protein, and a nice combination of ingredients with the shredded carrots, bell peppers, peas, scallions and onions. I'll certainly be returning to try out a few more of their menu items.
