    Meeeeeeeh...just ok. As a premise, I am not a Pho eater, but this place came with such high recommendations from our hotel that we made the 15 minute drive. The service was nice enough. The food came out hot and fresh and fast, but I ended up pretty much picking my shrimp out of the dish and eating the rice. It's about a 5 out of 10 for me. I would not necessarily come back. But if it was the only thing left in the world, I'd eat it. ‍

    10/10 loved this!! My friend and I both got vermicelli bowls and enjoyed them! The chili sauce on the side makes a great difference (not pictured). The waiter was very kind. We did order some egg rolls and I'm guessing the waiter forgot to put in the order because it was not on our receipt and we never received them but the food was so good and filling we didn't even need them. The place was clean and quiet inside. I would come again.

    Place was pretty empty and we got our food quite fast. The dining area was very clean but did have a that dirty mop water smell. Food came out fast and hot. Both kids enjoyed their food and our waitress was great. She was very attentive. I did notice after we ate that they have an overall health score of 84. Hopefully they can bring that up because their food was delicious.

    Pho was AMAZING! seriously my new favorite pho spot, not to mention customer service was very nice .. no long time for order to be taken and food brought out shortly after. the food was amazing.

    This place has changed names and possibly owners. Sorriest excuse for a sandwich that literally had 3 small pieces of chicken for nearly $9?!! You got me fuxked up! Couldn't switch it out since I had already bit into it. Switched out for chicken pho which wasn't much better. Skimped on the chicken and the broth wasn't like when I've gotten it when it was Pho Vy. Definitely won't return to this sad establishment.

    Came here on a lovely Saturday night and I was craving some pho! Came here and it wasn't that lively but I enjoyed it, it was quite and calm. I was seated quickly as well! I got some pho tai with meatballs and though it was tasty I felt like it was missing something. But that could just be me. I got some beef summer rolls and it was very tasty! I also got some spring-rolls which were okay. Overall my experience was nice. I enjoyed this place and the quietness.

    Showed up to this restaurant at 725p on a Sunday. As we walked in the lady stated I'm sorry we are closed. There was 1 couple there dining. I told the lady oh I'm sorry. I thought y'all closed at 9pm per yelps posted time. She said no. We close at 745p. She then said we should have locked the door but didn't. Keep in mind it wasn't 745p. Either way. I'm not sure why businesses are open at all if they don't want business. Believe me. I get it. Short staffing everywhere. But that was not a factor in this case. Plus. Posted ours on google stated 845p and Yelp said 9p. Hell, their door even had the posted time of 9p. Bad business.

    Great food and good service! It was mostly empty when my friend and I walked in for a quick dinner. Service was great. Menus and drinks were quick. The waiter kept an eye out and waited until we set down the menus before asking if we were ready to order. The food came out quickly but not too quickly. The chicken pad thai was amazing and hit the spot! It was very flavorful, not overly spicy, and very filling. I devoured it! My friend got a pork pho and it smelled amazing. She said it was wonderful. A great blend of flavors and well balanced. The meat was well cooked. I really liked the side of herbs, fresh bean sprouts, and limes that came with the pho. Plenty to share between the two dishes. The place was pretty clean. Same goes for the bathrooms. A little run down, but clean. A good little hole in the wall place. Very convenient location. Will go again.

The staff is super friendly and courteous :) ! We usually order the beef vermicelli soup, and a variety of dumplings :D ! They serve our food pretty promptly, with the soup still hot and tasty, and the dumplings steamy and savory :D ! My sister doesn't eat pork. So she typically orders dumplings that don't contain pork. I eat all kinds of meat. So I always order the pork and chive dumplings :D ! Whether you come in on a weekday or weekend, it always helps to come early if you can! If we want to go there for lunch, we try to get there as close to 11 am as possible when they first open. As it gets closer to 12 noon, it starts to get really busy, and it's harder and trickier for the staff to seat you. There is both booth and table seating. It's a great restaurant to catch up with friends, family or even colleagues over a good meal :) ! The parking lot out in front is a pretty decent size. But it can fill up pretty quickly when it gets busy! We also love ordering frozen dumplings to go :D ! For sure, we will definitely come back :D ! Kung Fu Noodle never disappoints :) !

I got the beef noodle soup with pork and chive steamed dumplings combination that comes with tea or soda. With tax, this is all under $20. The soup was better than what I've had in San Antonio and noodles were not too doughy with lots of beef. Pork chive dumplings were delicious! Staff was friendlier than other places that are asian own:). Casual place to eat with friends for great bowl of noodles and dumplings! I would come back to try other items off their menu. They have skewers as well!

    Wah Kee remains my go to for comfort Chinese food. After having spent years faithfully going to the…read moresame Chinese restaurant because it was close to my house and not realizing that the food quality had gone down remarkably, we decided to try a different place and here we are. It's been about a year or so since we've been coming here fairly regularly and I really cannot complain about anything specific. Most meals are excellent with a I miss now and then, but overall, I would never complain about that. The price of their meals seem to be stuck in a world without crazy tyrant leaders, and inflation out the roof, though I don't know for how much longer that will remain. Wah Kee! Stay true to who you are and you'll always have happy people coming back to you!

    Everyone raves about Wah Kee in this part of town and, since it had been many years since we'd been…read morethere, we decided to give it a try for lunch in case things had gotten better during that break. We noticed the decor had changed (yes, I said it had been many years) and it was quite nice! We were seated promptly and placed our drink order (tea came with lunch). We ordered Rangoon as a starter. The lunch specials came with soup and egg roll, and fried rice. DH ordered his litmus test dish for American style Chinese- General Tso chicken. The portion was generous. The sauce was tasty. The chicken pieces tasted like your average frozen nuggets tossed in sauce. It's that familiar "seasoning" to the chicken and coating- iykyk. Not bad at all, just not the best. He enjoyed his egg drop soup. I opted for Hunan Beef. The sauce was thicker than I prefer, with an almost gelatinous consistency. The hot and sour soup was nice, a little more sour than hot. We both thought the fried rice that came with lunch was a little bland. Maybe the entree version is better? Each special was under $10, and it's definitely a great value.

Walked in and waited for a few minutes before someone handed us menus and told us to sit wherever. Just handed us menus...in a kind of "just go sit down kinda way". Not real friendly. The appetizer we ordered (veggie steamed dumplings) came out with one less dumpling than promised on the menu. My wife's noodles were nothing special, as was my spicy/numbing pot. I felt my pot in particular, was over-loaded with huge chunks of veggies that could have been better chopped as to be more manageable. More chicken and beef in that chicken and beef pot, too, please ... The person waiting on us, if you could call it that, was not personable and could not have cared less about interacting. His drive by meal drop-offs were the epitome of antisocial. Probably won't return.
