    Love this place. Service is fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Chill ambiance feels like old style asian restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food was yummy and very affordable.

    This is a fantastic hole in the wall. If you approach it that way you will be super happy with this place. Authentic Vietnamese food, deep menu, prepared fresh to order. Super tasty, fast, generous portions and great prices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean, nice dining room, no-drama service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] What's not to love? I will be back!

    Best pho I have ever tasted. The service was quick and friendly. I don't quite remember the ambience but it was only because my little and I were very sick that day. Highly recommend this medicinal food

    Have this place a try for the Bobby tea that my son was craving, it was good, while waiting we saw some of the dishes served to other patrons and they were large bowls so I will be back to try their food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The dining area is large so there is plenty of seating and the sounds of their fish pond adds a relaxing environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    This place serves the BEST authentic vietnamese food! I hade the lotus salad.

    I've been wanting to try this place for years and today was the day......Sssssoooooo Good! I knew it was going to be the real deal when I walked in and saw Vietnamese folks eating. I feel the same about Mexican restaurants. If I see my people, it's going to be authentic. I had the Chicken Pho and egg rolls. I have to say this broth was soooo good. Super flavorful and really stood out among other places I've tried. It was all great, very hot and the best I've had so far. I also got an order of egg rolls which were a 10/10. So good, I ordered a second order and I was already full but still, I had to go for it. The only call out was the soup was 9.99 according to the menu and the egg rolls were 3.99 each order which would put my bill at 19.45 after tax. When the waitress rung me up, the total was over 21.00, why? I hadn't paid yet so it wasn't a fee for using a CC. Nothing major, just a pet peeve for restaurants these days that don't give you a paper bill but instead ring you up at the register. I got a receipt but it was not itemized. Overall, really loved the food. PS, you are not going here for the atmosphere , it's all about the food. The building is old but clean, and the inside is outdated but again, this is about the food. Can't wait to go back.

    Great service, another locally owned gem! Lotus salad is sooo good and the vermicelli bowl is generous! Careful with the xl pho it's nearly a gallons worth of broth hahaha our food was fast and perfect temp and portion! Super chill and quiet environment and we forgot to take all the pics we were too busy eating it all!

    I absolutely love this Vietnamese place. Owner and family staff are super friendly. They remember who you are and service is great! My go to ordered is the C01. Com Dac Biet substituted pork chop for grilled pork and P01: PHO Dac Biet. Both dishes are packaged with care and the quality is the same as dining in. The grill pork is so good along with the egg/meat loaf, fried egg, and bi! The pho broth was flavorful and great for a rainy day or when feeling under the weather! The perfect cure! Both authentic Vietnamese dishes reminded me of home and the taste of Vietnam! Thank you!!

    Food was very good my husband had Pho and I had the fried rice with beef, quiet place, kind of hidden but worth to try, fast service, would be back to try something different.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a cute hole in the wall Pho spot.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 10/10 recommend for-sure! Food came out within minutes and they were so attentive! Will be coming back.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service and ambiance was pretty nice[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], my partner and I went around afternoon and we had gotten the pork summer rolls 8/10. My partner got the stir fried lemony grass chicken and she really liked it. I had gotten the char siu pork fried rice 9/10 would recommend to a friend!!

    Closed when I went there just now at 6pm. Not sure why? Usually open at this time

    They close every year at this time. The waitress told me that they go home for the holidays !

    Finally got around to trying this place out and regret not going sooner! It's a small(ish) place…read moreso there was a small wait on a cold day but well well worth the wait! Once we got sat we placed our orders and had food in front of us in 15ish minutes? It was great. The wings were delicious, you could throw the sauce on a tire and I'd eat it. The bowls were so refreshing and delicious and the pho was perfect. I can't wait to go back! Give this place a try, be aware the parkings tight, don't get overwhelmed or thrown off find the parking get inside and be ready for some amazing food from amazing people! Side note: everytime the older Vietnamese women came to clear our plates as we finished she told us good job for fishing our food and tbh it felt so warming and homey without thought

    I am afraid that I must change my review of Pho Kim Long. I am sad to do so because this was one of…read moremy favorite local restaurants for over a decade. However, my most recent encounter has soured me completely, and I think I will never return. My favorite dish here was something that did not appear on the menu, Bo Tai Chanh salad. Even though it was not listed, they would whip it up at my request. It consists of beef cappaccio on an iceberg lettuce salad with Vietnamese vegetables and a fish sauce based dressing. Tonight they refused my order. What makes this refusal all the more frustrating is that Pho Bo Tai Chanh (the soup version) is listed on the menu and promoted as one of the favorite dishes. All that was needed, to meet my request, was to cut up half a head of lettuce and throw the non-liquid ingredients of the soup on top. Every restaurant should remember the customer is always right. Their only purpose is to meet their customers' requests to the best of their ability. I understand when a kitchen cannot meet requests with the ingredients or equipment they have. For example, I always call 24 hours ahead to order Peking Duck because the traditional methods require that amount of time to prepare the dish. Or I remember being refused a request to have my meat served rare when the restaurant had already cooked all its meat to medium rare using sous vide. I don't expect the kitchen to do the impossible. But every kitchen must be ready to meet special request whether health related like peanuts, shrimp, gluten, salt, carbohydrates, etc. or relate to tastes or ethics like vegetarian, vegans, seafood, etc. To fail one's customers is the first step to being one of the numerous restaurants to fail and become irrelevant. Any restaurant that refuses to meet reasonable requests fails the fundamental test for good service and does not deserve to be patronized. P.S. I end up going down the road to Yaya's Thai Restaurant (another local restaurant) to get something that met my tastes and preferences.

All things in my mind brought this down from a 5 star to a 4. Clean up the tables is definitely something the restaurant has control over. We sat down, and the acetone smell dissipated so either I was use to it or they turned down a shared ventilation system. The food though was the big surprise! It was excellent. We ordered the Special House Bun with beef, pork, chicken, shrimp and a crispy egg roll. The proportion of vermicelli noodles to fresh lettuce, carrots, cucumber, bean sprouts and peanuts provide d that perfect bite were one ingredient dominated the other. All the proteins were cooked perfectly. The real winner was the lemongrass Banh mi with once again perfectly proportioned ingredients. We also ordered the fresh spring roll, which never came but wasn't missed except that they did try to charge us for but did remove them. They definitely have some work to make this a comfortable dining experience but I wouldn't let it stop you from trying some phenomenal Vietnamese food.
