    Red curry. Sorry was too delicious to take pictures first.
    Jenny T.

    Pros. Our wait staff was great. They were really professional and kind. There were two gentlemen serving us. The decor is nice. Restaurant seems clean and well managed. Menu is very diverse with lots of options including many vegetarian dishes. Red curry is delicious. Pad Thai is great as well. I liked the tofu and vegetable rice plate but the tofu was a little dry and not the best. Cons. And these are small complaints. Seating is a bit uncomfortable but I understand they are trying to fit in many tables. The restrooms had one single stall for each men and women. I could see that being an issue during a rush. Overall you could go here often and have new things to try each time. We had a pleasant dining experience and recommend!

    Rare steak

    Food was delicious! My boyfriend and I come almost once a week we're so addicted. The service is fast and friendly! The portion size is great and broth taste fresh!

    I ordered a Combination Pad Thai with beef, chicken, and shrimp, and it was absolutely horrible. The shrimp tasted rancid, and both the beef and chicken had an odd, unpleasant flavor that made the dish inedible. Out of concern for food safety, I threw the entire plate away. When I called to report the issue and ask about a possible refund, I was told I would need to drive back to the restaurant and bring in the food--despite already explaining that it had been discarded. The manager insisted that no refund would be considered unless I returned the order. I've been a customer for quite some time, but this experience showed a complete lack of care or accountability. Expecting a customer to transport spoiled food back to the restaurant is unreasonable and disappointing. I would have expected better intentions toward loyal customers, but unfortunately, this experience has made it clear that customer satisfaction is not a priority. This will be my last time ordering from here.

    Shrimp and pork vermicelli

    Ambience 4/5 Not a bad place, a really cute we decorated place that definitely gives a pho/Vietnamese restaurant + Christmas Texan vibe! There is plenty of parking outside ! Very clean place Service 4/5 The people were very nice and our waitres checked in on us but for some reason we had to wait really long time far order to be taken. And the food it took a little bit longer as well compared to a lot of other pho places I've been to. Food 4/5 We ordered the pho combo and the pork and shrimp vermicelli and got an ORDER of egg rolls for checking in on Yelp. I gotta say. These egg rolls SAVED ME. They were the star of the show!!!! The pho was pretty good, large size and pretty flavorful soup. They were also generous with the noodles. Their soup was made with more star anise than the ones I'm used to in Cali but overall still very yummy! Now something to know about me is thst I always get vermicelli wherever I go to eat at a Vietnamese place and this was a bit disappointing. I got the spiced pork and the shrimp vermicelli, literally came with two shrimp. Overall wasn't as flavorful as other places I've been. But the veggies were generous and fresh! If you do decide to get this, PLEASE get one with an egg roll if you come here. Overall betweeb a 3.5 to 4. Leaning towards the latter due to the service and the egg roll!

    The menu is so vast that you can come in everyday for 60 days and have something different. This is probably our 10th time and we seem to gravitate to our yummy and delicious selections every time BUT today we chose to try the Bun Rieu Crab Meat Noodle Soup - wonderful broth, tender shrimp and very tasty crab cakes. This is certainly a restaurant for adventurous eating experiences. As always, service is always attentive and courteous. I do like the dessert offerings on the menu as well. Plenty of parking and easy access from the street. Quiet enough to carry a nice conversation. We love watching the cooking channel aired on their tvs

    New lighter colored flooring.

    After a brief closure, Pho 4 Star has reopened with new flooring and some new plates too. Same delicious food!

    Pho 4 Star, I wish I could give you TEN stars! The people are always polite, and the food is DELICIOUS! I've tried the pho, as well as the lemongrass chicken rice plate with a vegetable spring roll, and was blown away both times. I look forward to dining in at some point!

    Large VN Spring Rolls
    Trisha R.

    My parents and I have been coming here for years. It's great to see this restaurant become progressively busier over the years. They do stay busy with takeout orders and dine in, but they are quick to get people in but still provide great service. We never feel rushed and all the servers we have had are great. We've liked everything we have ordered. The large VN Spring Rolls are a MUST. We get them every time. Pho and Vermicelli Bowls are great. Last night they were pretty busy and they usually only do Bánh xèo on Monday and Wednesdays. Luckily they were able to make some. It does take extra time so if you are ordering it just be prepared. I believe they quoted me 30-35 minutes and honestly I don't know if it took that long because I was enjoying the large VN Spring Rolls and catching up with my parents.

    We came here recently and the service and food was terrific. Our waitress (Ty) was awesome and made…read morethe visit very nice. We split the fried shrimp platter and the shrimp etouffee (with dirty rice instead of white rice). The food was delicious. We went around 4pm on a weekday, so it was practically empty, but the atmosphere and vibe inside was incredible. I loved the nautical theme. They were playing a lot of rap music which was funny since we saw elderly people eating there who probably thought that was odd. I assume the nighttime vibe is lively and much different. And the restroom was not the cleanest there, even with an empty restaurant. But other than that, I'd recommend everyone go visit and enjoy!

    I met a friend and we decided to share a boil - the three boil choices don't have any prices listed…read moreother than "market price". We selected the Mr Crabby boil - pretty standard, 1/2 lb king crab (2 legs) 1/2 snow crab legs (1 set of legs), 1 snow crab claw ( one set claw plus legs), 2 pieces of corn, 4 pieces of sausage, 4 small red potatoes. The crab was cooked fine, the claw meat was a little overcooked but the corn itself was soft / soggy and overcooked. The drinks weren't bad at all, a hurricane and a vodka soda. The server had the crab crackers in their back pocket, not what I would consider clean especially with a $100+ boil that I'm about use them on and the final bill was $180 after tax, before tip. If I would have known l that I'd be paying $100 per person to spilt a boil and one drink each, I would have gone to Smashing Crab, SAT Asian, a Pappadeaux and spent probably a good amount less. Very disappointed given the surprise price point: talk about sticker shock and an average dining experience.
