    Chicken Spring Rolls
    Natalia R.

    Food: 5/5 Chicken Spring Rolls: I was immediately surprised when they brought this dish out to me. The chicken was freshly grilled, which added a nice char. The smoky chicken enhanced the spring rolls and was worthy of my positive review. Service: 5/5 From the second I sat down, the waiter was quick to tend to my needs. I never once had to signal for him to come over. Ambience: 5/5 The TV was on and the volume was lowered upon request. The interior is inviting and clean. The temperature is cool. This has been my go-to restaurant in the East Valley for many years.

    I wasn't feeling well and I was wanting some Pho so my amazing bf brought me some and it hit the spot. It was hands down one of the best shrimp pho's I've had in a while and it was very filling. They were generous with the shrimp and noodles I'll definitely try again.

    My Favorite Pho place! If you are looking for authentic food this is the spot. We are regulars and we are never disappointed. Service is always great. My favorite dishes are the Pho #21, the shrimp egg rolls and Thai tea.

    Shrimp and Pork Spring Rolls - Spring rolls with shrimp and vegetables, served with dipping sauce, alongside a Coca-Cola and fresh herbs on a restaurant table.

    Stop in for late lunch had spicy chicken shrimp Pho it was delicious... now I know there are hundreds of Vietnamese Pho throughout the city. Pho Number One served clean tasty and not too spicy Pho with the right amount of shrimp and chicken the noodles were very flavorful in the broth was delicious and not too salty. I also had an appetizer. Shrimp and Pork Spring Rolls with the tasty, mild sweet dipping sauce. If you are in the area of Dobson and baseline, stop in and give this place a try, you will not be disappointed.. I also like to have that the service was great ambience of the restaurant was very clean. Had a big screen TV so you can watch sporting events..

    Came here for Pho, tried their beef pho and spicy beef pho. They both tasted good enough, but I've definitely had something better around this area. But when it comes to Pho, it's always filling and warm no matter where I go!

    The food is tasty here and the service is very good here. The price is pretty affordable. It is reasonable for the food. The rice plate, pho, and vermicelli is what we ordered and the flavor of the food is very nice. The environment is very clean and there's a lot of space to sit a lot of seats and tables.

    Brisket pho - A bowl of beef brisket pho featuring slices of beef, onion rings, and chopped green onions in a clear broth, served on a black table.

    Really good, really fast, no complaints but nothing too unique. The broth was quite tasty - another pho place to add to the roster if I'm ever in the area and looking for no-frills.

    Wanton soup - A bowl of wonton soup containing dumplings, chopped green onions, and cilantro in a clear broth.

    I haven't had pho in over 10 years. It was definitely time to try it again. Phenomenal. Just amazing. Why did I wait so many years to have pho again? This place offers a full on coconut as a drink. They bring out the coconut with a hole on the top to consume the drink AND eat the coconut filling. I guess this was a young coconut so the nut part was all soft and creamy and amazingly delicious. I had never had one of them before. the wanton soup was great! The broth tasted like pho broth. The beef was delicious! Definitely need to go back soon.

    Soup brisket,trips tendon - Two bowls of pho with fresh herbs, bean sprouts, and lime on a black table at a Vietnamese restaurant, with side plates and condiments.

    Bun Bo Hue ( Spicy beef noodles) and Bò Lá Lốt và Heo Nướng Cuốn Bánh Tráng (Grilled Beef Wrapped with Betel Leaf and Grilled Pork)
    Le T.

    I happened to find this vietnamese restaurant in Mesa and wanted to try their Bun Bo Hue. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue (Spicy Neef Noodle) and Bò Lá Lốt và Heo Nướng Cuốn Bánh Tráng (Grilled Beef Wrapped with Betel Leaf and Grilled Pork) to go. The Bun Bo hue was flavorful with a slight hint of spice and had a generous amount of brisket. I definitely recommend the Bun Boe Hue. The Bò Lá Lốt và Heo Nướng Cuốn Bánh Tráng was also good. The meet was very flavorful and they also have Mắm Nêm (dipping sauce made with fermented fish) which was a little sweet for my taste, but if you added a little bit of lime and chili paste made it delicious! The service was quick and fast! I called in ahead of time and placed my order and by the time I arrived it was already. They also have a fridge full of vietnamsss desserts and pickled papaya and cabage to take home. I am looking forward to try the next time I am in. If you are in the Mesa area and are craving some vietnamese food, I would definitely recommend to try this place.

It's been…read moreabout 1-2 years since I've last eaten or ordered from here and decided to order to go for dinner. The web link on Yelp didn't work so I used menu photos from Yelp. 1. Item M14 -Gang Kiew Waan Roti from the photos says it's served w/ roti. But we were charged an additional $3 for roti, which was not mentioned to me when putting in the order. Only after we received our order and saw the receipt did I check Google. Web link on Google works and it appears they changed the name of the item and removed roti from the name. 2. To go portions are small for the price. Chicken larb was enough for like 2 people and had only one piece of lettuce. Papaya salad was also small and 1/2 the container was garnishes (carrots/cabbage). 3. For a noodle soup, any other place would put noodles separate from its broth. My khao soi came all in one container. Forgot to take a photo while it was in the container but there's an old photo of it somewhere on Yelp. 4. Crab fried rice had barely any crab. 5. There was no white rice. Places usually provide some white rice regardless if you order fried rice but I guess that's an extra charge here. 6. We ordered medium spicy for majority of the dishes because one person can't handle spicy but everything came out mild tasting. Even my khao soi, which I ordered hot spicy level, came out mild. 7. Thai tea was missing. After ordering, I asked the person on the phone to read back my order to me. She listed everything I had ordered including the thai tea. But after the order was picked up (not by me), the thai tea was not included in the order. It's a bit out of the way from here to there so no one is going to drive all the way back to get it. I went elsewhere close by for the thai tea. Order w/current pricing from their site: Tom Kha Chicken (med) $18 Thai Papaya Salad (med) $14 Larb Chicken (med) $16 Green Curry w/Ckn Zucchini Eggplant (M14 Gang Kiew Waan Roti) $20 Roti $3 Khao Soi $17 Crab Fried Rice (mild) $25 Thai Iced Tea $4.50

Based on my experience, the strong reviews here feel a bit overstated. I was hoping for more authentic flavor and seasoning than what was served.
