    Food: **** Clean: ***** Service: **** Ambience: **** Found another hidden gem in town, the portion is so big and price is pretty fair. Seems very home style restaurant with authentic service and food. Lemons grass chicken dry noodle is good! Very flavorful. Pho tastes good too. But I wish my broth can be hotter. But overall is good and will return

    Stopped by Pho S for a weekday dinner, it was quiet with only one other diner. Sadly I lost the photo of it, but I ordered the pho with beef and brisket flank. The flavor was decent, except the broth was quite dark and heavy. Adding some lime helped balance it out, though it might be a bit intense for some tastes. Portions here were very generous. The regular pho is $15, the large is $16, and for an extra $3, the additional noodles are a great deal -- you get a ton with that too! One standout feature is the variety of condiment sauces provided at each table, including fish sauce, which isn't something you see at every pho restaurant. I didn't try it, simply pointing out that it's a nice touch. Bathrooms were clean. Not sure if I'd come back, but all things considered a solid 3.5.

    We took a road trip up north and hadn't eaten anything on the drive up so we were hungry. We didn't find many places we wanted to eat on this strip and we didn't wanna venture off too far since we came by for a car show. Stopped in for a quick bite. Very cute and clean restaurant. Staff was nice, but very quiet and didn't really check on us throughout our meal. We had salad rolls and the pork plate. The salad rolls were good, but very skimpy on all the ingredients inside. The rice plate was surprisingly very good. The pork was cooked perfectly and the meat was soft and tender. The marinade on the pork was hands down the best pork plate I've had at any of the Vietnamese restaurants I've gone to. My husband rarely eats pork and tried a bite and he also felt that the marinade on the pork was one of the best and most flavorful pork plates he's had. Will definitely stop by again if we are ever in the area.

    Everything was great. The service was good and location was quiet. Large pho combo was amazing; Broth was flavorful and loads of meats. You get the amount you pay for. Large was $16. (Photo below is what I had left after scooping two portions out for the kids) then still having some to take home after I finished my portion. Amazing chilli oil and hot sauce. Newly decorated and lots of seating. High chair for babies were clean. Egg roll was ok not horrible; my kids love it.

    P3. Large Pho Rare Beef and Meatball.

    Great pho! Generous portions. Atmosphere is much nicer and warmer than most pho places. Service is immediate and attentive.

    Fried Rolls

    Located on the busy, commercial main drag of 16th Ave SW. The parking can be tricky as you need to back into the angled parking that lines the street. The interior is nicely decorated and has a modern and warm feel. There are lots of high tables and chairs and a few regular tables and chairs. Place your order with a server at your table and then go to the counter when you are finished with your meal to pay. Ordered the following: Fried rolls - nice and crispy, filling with pork, carrot, onion, and daikon was OK and not my favorite Pho combo (large) - generous portion, packed with sliced beef, brisket, meatball, tendon, and tripe, noodles were good, veggies were fresh, broth tastes sweeter than most pho restaurants but is still tasty.

    I have been coming to this location since I was a kid. Loved the original White center pho. Best broth in my opinion but it's been through a few different owners so I wanted to try this since everything was remodeled and looked so nice inside. The area definitely got upgraded. Interior is a lot brighter and more spacious than before. Service was decent. They came by rather quickly to grab our order. My bf got the brisket pho and I got steak with tripe. The broth was very aromatic and rather dark. It was a bit too sweet for my liking so I did use like two lime to cut some of it. For a reg bowl it was quite large. I barely made it half way when I started getting sick of how rich the broth was. Loved the assortment of spicy condiments on the side. It was a pretty good bowl of soup besides how sweet it was. Good place to try since it's in the neighborhood. Not sure how likely I'll be back though haha.

    Their pho and spring rolls are excellent but their pad Thai was one of the grossest things I've ever eaten.

    I'm updated my review to reflect a recent takeout dining experience…read more A couple weeks ago, we ordered 2 salads, and 2 sandwiches. We ordered pickup. Upon arrival to our house, the order was incorrect, whoopsie! We called back and the waiter who answered mentioned that we had accidentally taken a staff meal home. None of our to-go boxes were labeled. How could anyone know? This is a rookie mistake. It's been a while since this Goblin worked in food, but that's a non-negotiable. Especially given a place that prides itself on catering to restricted diets and lifestyles. This is exactly how you let a pumpkin seed slide into a seed allergy order. Instead of letting us keep the meal, she asked us to bring it back to the restaurant. We were happy to do so. Everyone deserves to eat. Should we have kept it for ourselves? We bring the food back, and the waiter explains that there was a mixup, and apologized. They handed us another to-go box (which wasn't labeled) and tried to end the conversation. "Have a good night!" We had to then explain to this waiter that our wives demanded something in return for the error, which was true. The waiter/bartender had a puzzled look on their face. Customer? Demanding I make something right? In my workplace?! A direct statement void of passivity about the quality of my service? With conditions? The audacity! We live in a world where we, the customer, bring back your incorrect order for you, waste our time, and we just get a, "thanks, have a good night!" This goblin had to claw his way up the ranks pillaging for gold which doesn't come easy. Everyone knows food cost in Seattle went up ~%46 since 2019. Wages haven't. We told the waiter our wives wanted a slice of cake. The waiter was shook by our audacity, and moved towards the fridge behind the bar to consult with two chefs who were shutting it down. We were arriving near/at close on a Monday. The other two chefs body language exuded "just give them the rest of the cake". There was a couple moments of pause and hushed conversation. The waiter pulled out a large serving plate with only a small chunk of Chocolate Mousse Cake left. Instead of putting that into a box, apologizing, and fixing the problem. They conferred about the legitimacy of our claim with the chefs. Hesitantly, they cut the cake into a small slice, put it in a box (which wasn't labeled) and handed it to us. What's hilarious is that they would leave such a small piece going into the next day of prep. Why not just 86 it right there? Why was it so hard for this person to acknowledge they made a mistake, and do something kind for us in return? The chefs clearly understood these fundamental building blocks of customer service, had they not been there in the front of house, I'm sure the waiter would've made an excuse to not remedy the situation. From all of my years in food service, if something is wrong, you make it right, end of story. By owning the error, you keep your integrity. Even a small gesture like 10% off one item, between the hours of 7:35pm- 7:45pm every third Monday, however inconsequential and trivial, makes people feel like you've made things right. These basics need to be addressed with FOH staff. With food cost nearing the price of rent each month in Seattle, customers should feel empowered to speak their mind respectfully. My only reason for going into excruciating detail is the hope that this can be a teaching moment, and more people can eradicate passivity. Passivity is a threat to community, culture, service, and so many other integral parts of our society. It's OK to disagree in public. It's OK to check someone. It's OK to tell your server "No, honestly, it wasn't that good, here's why..". When we deny the truth about our experiences for fear of disrupting the status quo, we withhold an essential part of building stronger, more diverse and resilient communities. "Goblin D, don't you think this is a bit too deep for a food review?" No, and if you've made it this far, the two stars are for the two chefs who made sure we got our cake.

    Loved the portobello french dip sandwich! Lots of shrooms, cooked perfectly and very well seasoned…read more My spouse said the barbecue sandwich made with tempeh was good but not great. My friend very much enjoyed the tofu bahn you. Although we all really enjoyed the nachos, they were not what I expected. I expected cashew cheese sauce that was cheesy tasting. It was very different from that but tasted great. The lentils and tomatos were very well seasoned. They are not spicy but are yummy. The kale salad was good but I have had a better vegan one in SF. The service was friendly but slow. On the plus side, there was zero pressure to rush. I look forward to going here again when I am next in town. I want to try the mac and cheese and one of their pretty cocktails.

    I have been wanting to try this place for a while. I got the iced Cardi B (a latte with house-made…read morecardamom brown sugar syrup with espresso and almond milk) and my fiance an iced mocha. The first sip of the Cardi B, my eyes rolled back, and I nodded to how good it was. It's not too sweet (I ordered all of this online on their website for pick up and was not able to ask for it half sweet, but glad they didn't over-sweeten it). The cardamom flavor is prominent, so if you don't like that flavor, I'd choose something else. I also ordered some breakfast items. I got the Lil' Verda, which is a breakfast burrito on a flour tortilla with scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, avocado, and salsa verde ( I also added sausage to it). It's pretty tasty! It's a big burrito for being on a medium flour tortilla. I got the fiancé a breakfast sandwich on a brioche bun (you can choose what bread you want; they even have gluten-free) that came with scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese, and I added bacon for him (adding a meat was only $2, which is reasonable). As I said, I pre-ordered everything on their online ordering system. My order was ready when I got there as promised. The staff member who helped me was super nice and pointed out where the hot sauce (Tapatio) and straws were. They do have separate windows for ordering and pickup. If you order online, just head to the pick-up window. It is a little spendy (breakfast sandwich w/ added meat $10.75, burrito w/ added sausage $12.75, and two espresso drinks at roughly $8 and some change), however, everything is going up in price (Gas is up to $5.09 +), so take that as you will. Overall, it's a cute little spot nestled in a neighborhood. There is street parking, but it's in an area that isn't too hard to find parking, as it is further away from the very busy spots of West Seattle. I'd come back, perhaps take the fiancée there so we can enjoy it fresh.
