From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and genuinely friendly customer service. I ordered the extra-large brisket pho, and it was absolutely incredible. The broth was rich, flavorful, and honestly one of the best pho broths I've ever had. Everything was perfectly seasoned and tasted fresh. I also ordered the chicken pot stickers, and they were just as delicious. Between the outstanding food and the excellent customer service, this place definitely earned a new regular customer. If you're looking for amazing pho in Hemet, I highly recommend giving this place a try.

Egg rolls 4 come with an order. Yummy!!

The cashier didn't seem too enthusiastic about answering questions, and the sandwich itself was pretty thin. They definitely skimped on the protein and seemed to compensate with extra veggie toppings. For the price, the portion-to-value ratio just wasn't quite there. Despite the cons, I'd still come back to try some of the other sandwiches.

Service was be sufficient considering we were the only ones there. I probably won't be back.

Brisket and cheddar sandwich ($16.95): this brisket is exactly how it should be, as it was seasoned, tender, and requires only a little effort to chew since it was tender. The caramelized onions and gooey cheese went well with the brisket and the buttered toast, 5/5 stars! Large size of mac and cheese: one of the best I've had, as it was indulgent! The creamy cheese sauce was seasoned and just completely covered the tender macaroni, 5/5 stars! The service was efficient as you order at the counter and they provide your food in a timely manner, despite the constant arrival of patrons.

They're both seasoned with a thick rub that packs serious flavor. The meat is incredibly tender and soft--just melts in your mouth. It's definitely on the pricier side, but the quality makes it worth it. Sides like the mac n cheese and baked beans were just okay--not bad, but nothing special. However, the Oreo dessert waffle totally stole the show. It was absolutely amazing and the perfect sweet finish. Highly recommend for BBQ lovers who appreciate bold flavor and tender meats.

We stopped by to get a quick fix to my Chinese food cravings and were so happy with our meals. The interior is clean and has plenty of seating if needed, but I love taking their food to go and it's so fast that you're in and out of there. My husband especially enjoys the rice noodles because he's a fan of thinner noodles for the texture and chew. I love the classic chow mein that they serve. Our favorite meat is the jalapeño chicken, which is pretty much like orange chicken with a kick to it. I also enjoy the mushroom chicken, beef broccoli, and teriyaki chicken. With their extremely fair prices and super quick service, you are in for a treat.

My partner and I also ordered the Seven Seas soup which did not disappoint and was very delicious, in addition, he ordered the Screaming beef which we "screamed with joy" because it was really tasty. Service was quick and we were acknowledged as soon as we entered. We were able to get a booth because the place can get full. We were served our drinks first but I have to mention some of the food items were not brought to table in the usual order or flow. I would suggest to mention to the food server to bring the appetizer first then the soup along with the rice and other entrees; however, I'll admit towards the end of our dining experience it didn't matter anymore because we had an appetite and finished it all!! Will definitely come back to try some other menu items. Thank you!

It's as if someone walked in, expected a local town hangout to be filled with racists and rednecks, and saw what they wanted to see. Hemet is a multi-racial town with a lot of hard-working folks of all races. I saw that in the clientele. Many people have stopped wearing masks in public. While I may question their wisdom, my wife and I wore ours when we walked in, as did many others. We received excellent, friendly, albeit informal service. Nobody even blinked. The food was hot, tasty, and plentiful. The coffee was as good as diner coffee gets, which means that it was fresh, hot, and rather strong. Not the best coffee I've ever had, but I enjoyed it, and I'm a bit of a coffee snob. Beyond that. It's a diner, folks. They don't have a wine steward, nor a matre d'. The food is basic. It's not "fusion" or any sort of cutting edge cuisine. It's just good basic diner food. No, it's not slick or corporate. It's not a nation-wide franchise with menus decided by focus groups. It's not fine dining. They don't have any of that. What they do have is good diner-style food, fast and friendly service, and a relaxed atmosphere. And if that's not what you're looking for, then why are you walking in there in the first place?

Hash browns and Homefries 7/10. I hope they make some changes there.
