    House special pho and breadsticks. We brought our own shrimp paste and Thai chilis lol
    Amanda S.

    Honestly there are so many other pho spots that is way more flavorful. And for the price I don't think it's worth it. They only offer one size as well. They have a little side station where you can grab your own bean sprouts, jalapeños and limes. Service was ok, but I think it was because they didn't have too many servers and we arrived at a time when it was kind of busy. It's a pretty spacious spot and they're also connected to a boba spot. They also have outside seating if you want to sit outside. But overall I wouldn't go back when I have other pho spots closer to me.

    Breadstick & calamari
    Jaycee T.

    Service was ok. They were really busy. Not much choices on the menu. Just a lot of different soups. I got the calamari, #1 house special, kids pho. This place is really pricy. My pho alone is $17. The broth was just way too sweet. It's not authentic tasting. I had to bring my own shrimp paste and Thai chilis. Also it's self serve when it comes to the toppings for your pho, they already add basil into your pho. Calamari wasn't good, no flavor just spicy. The sauce it came with wasn't good. This is just my personal preference.

    First time going here thanks for LT and that was the best side of beef rib I've ever tasted comes in it's own portion of broth. I call that the kiddie pool the main portion was the deep end which I drowned the beef rib in after I fished out all the other meats. The broth was unbelievably flavorful and had most of the condiments. They have a little side bar for sprouts and lemon and 3 crabs FS. Also got a fruit tea to go with my lunch The Grapefruit Queen. Ambiance had smooth jazz playing and not too loud and tables and floors were super clean. This is top tier in my book. We even ordered to go and you have to get something from the Teazona menu.

    Loved this little bowl for the sauce!

    As a self-proclaimed Pho fanatic, I've slurped my way through bowls all over Fresno. But this one? This one rewrote the rules. The meat was of quality, the fresh noodles made this experience unique, and the broth held me in a warm, savory embrace. If you're looking for a Pho experience that'll leave you speechless (and maybe a little spoiled), you know where to go. Great customer service and clean space! Love this spot!

    Trying something new!

    This place was such a great experience for me and my husband. We had been wanting to try this one out for a while but their hours vary, like they close during the day and open for dinner. Anyhow from the beginning let me just say how much I love the business park. It is absolutely gorgeous! The lights wrapped around the trees and the cleanliness and the restaurants just stand out! I was a little confused as to how to get in to this restaurant. It was surrounded by a black gate with no entry... We ended up going through the Teazona door... no big deal! It looked to me like the businesses are linked together cause when we walked in, immediately there was Teazona signage on the wall, but everyone was having their pho dinner so hopefully they make the entrance pleasant to look at when you walk in. It kind of looked like they just opened the tea side. Right from the get go the customer service was great. The staff was very attentitive, not at all pushy. They immediately took our order. I tried chicken pho for the first time and even though I enjoy house special pho which was what the hubby ordered, I had never tried the chicken and it was delicious and felt authentic. Yes sounded like everyone was recovering from being sick but that's also what makes the place special knowing that warm pho is gonna help you feel better. The vibe was awesome too and nobody was too loud. The music was formal and very chill. It helped make our dinner feel like a date night. We will be making a return to try the veggie pho... sounds so perfect right about now... The chile sauce was fire just perfectly made! Spicy is always better! This place is a MUST TRY! 10 out of 10!

    Great place to get soup. It you're new to ordering pha, get the #3. It's beef broth (amazing) with tender slices of beef. Yum!

    Rare steak pho and egg rolls
    Jacklyn R.

    BEST BEST pho in town hands down, it is on the pricier side but 100% worth it. The egg rolls were sooooo delicious! My fiance couldn't stop talking about them and telling all the workers how much he enjoyed them. New fav spot for us

    BBH WITH rib
    Meena V.

    First time there and it was great experience, we were there on Friday night right after work. I order BBH BEEF RIBS and it wasn't bad at all. The portion of RIBS is not bad (just perfect), but a little portion of the noodle and offered 1 size. My two little sister ordered bbh special and sweet & sour soup. The sweet and sour wasn't her liking so she waste it. Also it has pineapple in the soup.

    The service was great. The pho was delicious. I honestly love the broth. I really enjoy their boba too. So bomb. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting. Nice lighting. Calm music. Self serve condiments.

    I honestly really enjoyed the pho. The broth is the perfect amount of sweet, so all you really need is a wedge of lime. That's it. A little fish sauce if you're a salty girl like me. The flavor is really fresh and light. I love that they use bigger rice noodles (pad Thai noodles) I feel like it holds the soup better. Although I do feel like they give you a little amount, considering it's a $15 bowl. (4/5) We got the the fried bread sticks. Nice light and crispy. It kind of taste like the oil they fried it in. But after a while of sitting they get a little chewy. (3/5) We also got the fried shrimp. Super crunchy, super fresh. The dipping sauce for it was a spicier sweet chili. So good (4/5) The shrimp spring rolls were okay, it's the sauce that's important. The sauce needed some salt, or something else added it to it because it was a little plain. But good thing we had left over sauce from the fried shrimp and just mixed it together--this elevated the springs. (2/5) Takoyakis, I love takoyakis, and they make a good one. Nice and creamy inside. No complaints(5/5) The service is okay, I don't expect much from authentic places like this. It could have been a little better, the main waiter looked annoyed the whole time. We asked him something he was super short about it. LBut the one with the glasses was pretty nice. Kept our waters filled.

    Delicious

    The bowl of pho I had was delicious! The noodles were different and I honestly prefer the ones every other place serves...but everything was perfect. The mango slushie with mango jelly was insanely delicious! The gyoza was perfect...calamari rings were perfect..egg rolls were perfect...restaurant was perfect!

    Vegetables with chicken broth pho, osmanthus hot tea.
    Quiche L.

    Great pho at this spot..good ambiance and super nice staff. I had the chicken broth with veggies. It was perfectly flavored and the vegetables were fresh and crisp, not soggy. My server was named Rosa. She was mature and personable. Very polite and engaged me in my selections (which is rare nowadays with younger people). I must also rave about the delicious osmanthus tea! Wow, so good! I can't wait to return.

    Shrimp pho
    Reagan J.

    Very flavorful pho. I have never had a bad food item here. They are super fast and huge portions. I can't eat that much so I get the kids size and it's perfect for me. I wish they were open during lunch all week.

    Yes! Thank you!

    Is it Hanoi style pho?

    Yes thier pho tastes so different compare to other pho restaurants, so i believe it is north side pho

    Is it takeout only?

    No. They have inside and patio dining too.

    Why they closed so long?or they no longer in business?

    They are remodeling.

It is my absolute go-to. I do enjoy their seasonal drinks as well such as their maple pecan latte!

The interior is definitely maximalist, with plenty of framed photographs, stickers for sale, little trinkets, and plants hanging all around. There is no space to sit inside - to be honest there's barely any space to wait for your drink - but they have plenty of outdoor seating to soak in the garden vibes while sipping on your drink. I ordered the matcha latte with marshmallow cold foam and lucky charms (this was their seasonal one for March), and I grabbed the mocha with marshmallow cold foam for my sister (another seasonal drink). The matcha was decent, but it wasn't until after I got my drink that I noticed they have an option to do "ceremonial matcha" for an extra charge.

I'm usually a chai kind of gal and the snowflake chai sounded enticing. The snowflake chai reminded of Christmas in a cup. I could smell the cinnamon which I love and tasted the vanilla. My drink was a perfect cup to start my day. They also sell pastries from La Boulangerie. I picked up a cream cheese croissant and it was yummy.
