    Yummy Pho Rare Steak, Flank & Tripe
    Randy D.

    Stopped in for dinner and was really happy I did. Parking situation is a little crazy, had to park a bit away and walk over, lots of traffic in the area. Was seated right away and given a menu. Service was quick, ordered my usual fresh rolls and pho with everything. Rolls were very good, fresh and loaded with shrimp and pork. Pho was good, nice flavor to the broth and loaded with meat. Looks like almost every other pho place inside, utilitarian and industrial. Enjoyed it and would definitely come back

    I love pho, and it just happens to be in the area. I've never been here until today and I really liked their broth. It has almost like a sweet lingering taste. The portion is very generous as well. I had the egg rolls, which were delicious and crispy. The place gets pretty packed for lunch and a lot of people also get orders to go, showing that it's a favorite for a lot of people. The service is excellent, super friendly staff and fast to get food out and clean the tables. They're located in a pretty busy plaza, but the food is really good and that's why you can tell people choose to come here. I would like to try the vermicelli and rice next time. Because I'm coming back!

    The atmosphere of the place is industrial, yet cozy and the staff are pleasant. The Pho is incredible! The beef rib pho was our absolute favorite! It's a giant hunk of meat and a very comforting broth. The meat and noodle portions of all the pho's are also very generous. The only critique I would have would be for the spring rolls to be a bit larger. Overall great place and we'll definitely be coming back!!

    Pho rare steak and brisket

    Food and drinks were great. Service was wonderful. My go to spot when I need my veggie fixing. Their zucchini noodles are so addicting and all time fave!

    Wagyu beef served on a sizzling iron plate is a great deal. You would not expect such a high quality beef from a pho restaurant. A special dish created by the chef and sourced from Ranger Cattle. Love it! The pork broth was kind of salty but the side salad was great.

    Expensive for what they're serving

    Hủ tiếu special is not special when there is no pork belly. Y'all should have what you put in your menu. The broth tastes just salty and water, bland. Phở with rare steak and brisket. Got home with no rare steak. No green onions. Broth has no flavor. Very disappointed. If you don't know any better.

    The 3x I have been the food is just great. Meats are quality and the produce is fresh. This last time I decided to try something on the lighter side- grilled shrimp and zoodles (zuchini noodles) instead of the vermacelli. They were fresh and a healthy portion. Service is always quick and efficient too. Cute spot to eat it as well, with cool artwork on the walls! Another top reccomendation is the beef short rib and pork egg rolls!

    Need to give an updated review. Years have gone by and the service and consistency of this place is still top notch! I could eat it every day. Lunch is served if you want someone other than Pho I recommend any of the charred meat plates with a side of broth.

    Pho brisket
    Gregg M.

    As usual, I experienced excellent service, outstanding Pho and comfortable ambiance. My rare steak and brisket Pho was outstanding today. Very lean proteins and very fresh herbs and jalapeños. This is a great neighborhood restaurant. Keep up the great job! Surely a repeater for me.

    Seafood pho
    Kimm N.

    Food : 4 the seafood pho was good but their hu tieu special noodle has really tasty broth with hint of fried dried shrimp in it. The spring roll was ok. Service - 5 fast Ambiance - 4 basic simple quick hop in and out setting.

    After flicking it off the plate, the guy crawled off.

    We were excited to try this place and the food looked good...until we saw the bug in the vermicelli. The tea had been good, but we gagged seeing this Lil guy crawling within our near-lunch. The host said he'd inform the kitchen, but...no thanks. The place was packed, so I wonder if like on Oprah, "everybody gets a creepy crawler in their luch!" Or we were the only lucky ones. Done with "Broth and Bugs and Basil."

    Packed and painfully loud. As a Vietnamese person, flavor matters -- and this missed. Dry noodles were average, side broth had zero depth. Pho's only redeeming part was the beef rib; once that's gone, it's just bland noodle water. Veggies were sad. Meh.

    Beef Rib pho
    LeeAnne W.

    If you follow Texas BBQ you will see that this is the most inexpensive way to have a dino rib. The beef rib pho is heaven on earth and the meat portion is huge (see pics). The bao bun sliders and vegan egg rolls were a delicious addition to our meal. I was super impressed with the pho. That beef rib was tender and delicious. The service was freindly and efficient and the food was very delicious. I love this area and there are many decent restaurants to enjoy. I would definitely return.

Parking can be difficult but not an issue if you just wait a bit for a grocery shopper. Time to Order: 5 minutes for appetizers, 12 minutes for dumplings and soups Crab and Pork Soup Dumplings: 5/5 still fantastic Black Fungus with Onions: Nice and light, like a little salad with pickled vegetables. Nice and crispy. The good old Hot Spicy Stew #25: 5/5 still incredibly filling and they're so generous with meats! I keep forgetting to ask for swapping the glass noodles with their regular hand pulled noodles, would do that. Friends had other noodle soups and enjoyed them all, as I thought.

There were water, bowls, utensils, and sauces in the lobby for anyone to grab, which was nice. We ordered their cucumber salad, beef noodle soup, and lamb noodle soup. Cucumber salad was 2/5. It wasn't the authentic smashed cucumber salad, the flavor was missing something, and I mean, for $7 or $8, you would think it would be amazing....it's not. Pretty disappointing, I'd much rather have my sister's over these. Beef noodle soup was meh. Nothing special. Broth was very simple, like they just added salt and that's it. Meat was cooked very well. My soup came with 1 piece of lettuce, weird.. Lamb noodle soup was the same as the beef noodle soup; it did come with the black fungus, seaweed, tofu, and some vermicelli clear noodles, along with their handmade noodles. Made sense why it was only $13.95 for the noodle soups. It's reasonably priced probably due to not being authentic, though, I wouldn't pay more than $10. They had handmade noodles, which many people do like. However, their noodles were very bland, along with their soup. I didn't find anything special here either. Maybe I'll get their dumplings or fried noodles the next time we come, but it's a no for me.

Plenty of vegan options with tofu both soft and fried, fresh veggies galore, and all the brown sauce you can handle. My personal favorites are the mapo tofu and mushroom tofu, but the dry sauteed green beans definitely deserve and honorable mention. Great portions all around; order two dishes and you'll have a whole feast. Lunch deals are a great value but even dinner pricing is very reasonable, too. It's an ideal spot for a low-key meal since it's usually not too busy, not loud, not flashy, and not the type of place that attracts annoying wannabe influencers.

I'm a big fan of the spicy beef noodles. Love the bouncy chewy noodles with the fresh bok choy. You can see the photos I took the soft, long cooked braised beef cuts. I am very surprised the beef is very tender extremely tender and love the the big cuts of gelatinous goodness. Tendons for capital T for tender. The broth has a strong beef flavor and overall great dish. The pad Thai on the other hand, it's a good attempt at Pad Thai but in my opinion is too sugary. Love the noodles with the peanuts on top. You have the soft noodles with the crunchy peanuts. It adds a nice contrast of crunchy and soft at the same time. You can see the sliced carrots and the beef. I also added chicken. It's a good dish, but it's in my opinion missing more bean sprouts and it needed more tamarin sauce. More fish sauce, and it would've been nice to add stirfry basil so you could taste the basil leaves when you stirfry it. It's also missing eggs. Maybe I didn't see any of it. I didn't taste any eggs or it was just covered in sauce, but who knows it was still good. I ate the whole thing.
