The egg noodle bowl on the top with fried chicken and tofu was phenomenal. The chicken was similar to fish sauce wings and the tofu was very caramelized and had a nice salty coating of sauce. The bottom was nem nướng and pork with the woven noodles. It was a very big portion, but the fresh herbs/veggies made it feel balanced. An order of spring rolls were also ordered, but wasn't in the photo. It was ordered with crispy pork belly. Based on some reviews, I was skeptical about ordering the pork belly, but I was pleasantly surprised. The skin was very crispy and you could hear the crunch from across the restaurant. The restaurant is very open with big windows, but I liked the concept of the open kitchen look. The service was really good. We ended up ordering pork belly and shrimp for our spring rolls and the worker politely came by and told us they were out of it. He was able to accommodate for it and was very kind about it. Even though you can order at the table with a QR code, the staff was very attentive.

It's a Vietnamese delicacy you can't find anywhere else in Oregon so I'm glad to have to a Portland restaurant to offer this. They give a plentiful amount of fresh herby veggies combo with fresh hot rice noodles alongside tender flavorful char siu and SUPER CRISPY pork belly! The staff are friendly and the store is extremely aesthetic, the interior has this spin on modern Vietnamese style of decorations. Great interiors that's won't disappoint your date. I absolutely recommend coming here for their niche Vietnamese food!

They always greet me with a smile and are consistently warm and friendly. The food is always fresh, delicious, and consistently prepared. What means the most to me is that it never upsets my stomach. I have an autoimmune disease, so finding a restaurant where I can enjoy a meal without stomach pain is incredibly rare. I've eaten here more than 20 times and have never had a single issue. My go-to order is the lemongrass chicken with sautéed string beans and a Diet Coke. If you're looking for great food, outstanding service, and a place that truly values its customers, I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try!

Back then, I felt their prices for everything was a bit higher than most other similar places around, well that's not the case anymore. We recently dined here twice, both during lunch hours. Service is attentive, and the place felt comfortable. My kiddos had the Pho ga but felt the chicken was a bit dry and lack flavor, but otherwise delicious. I enjoyed my beef Pho, it wasn't the most flavorful but a very solid 8/10. The crispy pork rolls were excellent, fried perfectly, and both the Vietnamese coffee as well as the pineapple smoothie for the kiddos were well made.

I really wanted to love this place. The website is adorable, the menu looked great, and there are…read moreplenty of positive reviews, so maybe I just caught an off day. I ordered through DoorDash and went with the Vegan Pho and salad rolls. On the positive side, they were generous with the tofu, which is more than I can say for a lot of restaurants. Unfortunately, both dishes seemed to have the same secret ingredient: salt. And then a little more salt. The pho broth was already pretty salty when it arrived, but somehow managed to become even saltier overnight. By breakfast the next morning, I was pretty sure it could have been used to preserve historical artifacts. The salad rolls were packed with tofu, which I appreciated, but whatever marinade was used had enough sodium that my old horse Mika probably would've mistaken it for a salt lick. To be fair, my Pescatarian mom and Omni husband both enjoyed their shrimp rolls, so not everything was a miss. Overall, the food was edible and filling, but the heavy hand with the salt kept me from fully enjoying it.

Star of the show was the shaken tofu-- I HAVE NEVER HAD A DISH LIKE IT. Omg. I inhaled it. It was so beautiful and so tasty!!!! The lemongrass comes through so perfectly. Spring rolls are HUGE! and tasty! Only one recommendation ( and reason for 1 star less) for the management: my shaken tofu arrived in the plastic to go tray and had leaked oil all over the inside of the paper bag and probably my driver's seat too. Just advice to please change the container to something airtight. I'm saddened by the loss of the sauce that could have been consumed but it probably all over my doordasher's car lol

We were brought here based on my MIL suggestion and let me tell you! The food was amazing! The environment was great and clean. The bathroom was also clean as well!

The pork chop that came with my dish was tender, I was able to cut it with my spoon and the shrimp wrapped in tofu and fried was probably my favorite! The dish also comes with shrimp as well that was delicious all by itself. We had also ordered the Vietnamese Coffee- boy did that have my heart racing, but oh tasted sooooo good!

The pork had a great char, the shrimp were grilled well, and the crispy wrap added a nice textural crunch. Steamed broccoli was a fresh addition, and the side broth hit the spot. * The Pork Chops with Shredded Pork Skin (Bì) & Egg Meatloaf (Chả Trứng) plate was decent, though a bit average compared to other spots nearby. The flavors were fine, but nothing particularly stood out. * Noodle Soup: The spicy beef noodle soup had a rich, deep color and a generous amount of fresh herbs and onions, though the broth lacked a bit of the punch and depth of flavor I was hoping for. Overall: It's a convenient neighborhood option with generous portions and fast service, but given the quality of Vietnamese food along Powell and 82nd, it lands right in the middle for me. Good, but not quite a standout.
