It's beyond reasonable and the portions reflect it, yet they're perfect. The staff here was very kind and accommodating and if I'm not mistaken this is a local business owner.

Had Bun Xao and Pho Ga, and my son meant to order rare beef pho but accidentally ordered beef stew, but he had zero regrets it was delicious with huge chunks of beef. I've never had Vietnamese beef stew before but it was very much like American except with vermicelli noodles. My Pho was excellent, but I would have appreciated a bit more protein and it seemed to be lacking a little in saltiness could have been light on salt, soy or fish sauce. Easily remedied at the table. The bun xao also would have appreciated a bit more protein. I cant emphasize enough these were minor issues. Pricing was very good, no complaints.

The beef stew pho was excellent, warming, and fresh. The fried rice was delicious. Parking can be challenging to find, but other than that we would highly recommend. We are looking forward to trying many more dishes here.

Anyway, he was there last night and is a really nice person. He told us that he wants everyone to be able to enjoy delicious Vietnamese food that's also healthy -- and everything we ate last night really was delicious and felt healthy. We started off with his homemade limeade and that was very tasty. The tart and the sweet flavors had a perfect balance. We ordered what they called eggrolls but to me were really friend spring rolls. They were crispy, flavorful and not a bit greasy. We then had the grilled pork chops over rice and the shrimp pho. The pork chop had a good flavor and the pho broth was really nice, as were the shrimp. The restaurant was not that busy so we hope that more people discover and try it. They have a parking lot and the restaurant is right on Boston Avenue so the next time you're thinking of going out for Vietnamese please give VanDo Pho a try.

Their menu choices probably need to be expanded to attract high school students (and others) who might otherwise go out of their way for bánh mì sandwiches or creative Thai cooking rather than their meager main course choice of soup, a pork chop or a chicken leg. I had the beef pho and ordered the chicken wings and egg rolls to go - which were a replacement for the spring rolls which I'd gone there to try, but were not available. The blonde wood tables and freshly painted walls created a clean environment, supplemented with a shining new stainless steel kitchen. There's a traffic light to help your exit onto busy Boston Ave., and it has its own parking lot. Service was prompt and polite. The waiter and chef weren't wearing masks. I should have left at that point. The pho was sub par; the beef was very chewy, the broth lacking that sweet/hot ginger beef bone punch. The mandatory accompaniment of cilantro, bean sprouts and mint or Thai basil was MIA. Hubs declared the chicken wings to be very tough, and the egg rolls looked and tasted like the generic-probably-purchased-frozen-in-bulk type. Wish I could be more pro-pho about this place, but here's to hoping things will improve.

I had the following and do recommend each of them: -Bahn mi: authentic ingredients, only negative is there's no clean way to eat it but the bread is perfectly toasted, the pickled veggies are crunchy and refreshing. -Grapefruit tea -Pork belly buns, I was so pleased at the quality of the meat. You could practically drink it. The flavor overall was fantastic -Simple Pho: broth is very pleasant and reminiscent of my favorite pho place so this really stood out to me. Added an egg which was perfectly soft boiled. The ambiance was bar-like on one end, and had a separate nice dining area with Interesting light fixtures and decor. Wait staff was very kind!

The broth was nice--if you're used to Japanese ramen or Taiwanese beef noodle soup, you might expect something richer, but this is exactly how pho should taste. By pho standards, it's a solid dish, though the beef ball could be better. The pork belly bao was excellent and full of flavor. My wife ordered salmon with ramen noodles and said the salmon was perfectly seared; she loved it. We also tried a few boba teas, and they were all tasty. Our total was just over $90, which felt fair. This is a great spot worth supporting--a unique and satisfying meal. Great service and ambience.
