    #41 comes w dipping sauce and side of broth
    Patricia D.

    Me and my daughter come here once a week. Quick service and everything is always delicious. We always get a large 41 to share. The pork is so crispy and flavorful, the dry noodles are a nice alternative when you don't feel like pho, and the broth is tasty. We love this place so much.

    This used to be where the Pho Danh used to be next to the Hong Kong Supermarket. I'm usually a person who doesn't order the pho bowl but another noodle soup, however, this time I wanted to go back to my roots. Portion was good! Broth was delicious! Service was good! Che Thai was delicious! I'm actually craving for it now while I'm typing this!! Overall, it's been a while I've had a good bowl of pho. I usually don't put the hoisin and sriracha in the broth until I've tasted the broth. I know it's good pho when I don't even have to put it in at all and this is one place I didn't! That's saying a lot! I give a Truc-a-Licious rating of 5/5 stars!!!

    Pork with. Veggies and noodles.

    Went here yesterday for lunch after picking up a few things at the Hong Kong Market. Walking in through the front door I knew it was going to be good. The place was spotless, quiet music playing in the background, clean tables, and staff attentive as soon as you walked in. I ordered the spring rolls and were stuffed with pork and shrimp. They came with a good peanut sauce. As for the main dish, the #34. A noodle salad loaded with veggies and pork. So very good and large portions of pork. This place is great and highly recommend it for a good quiet lunch.

    Not Just another PHO place don't get me wrong I like Veit PHO but the owner here is Thai so they do Thai soup too. So this is why we travel about 30 minutes here about once a month the boat noodles are the best but also Yen da pho is delicious:)'

    Ready for some yummy pho

    Awe I loved my to go experience here . The staff was very sweet and the older woman behind the counter is probably just the most adorable thing you could ever meet . I ordered the # 17 with extra tendon for $2 because I'm a greedy little bird and love love tendon in my pho . The broth was pretty tasty nothing super interesting as far as flavors go but it was a tasty classic beef broth which I enjoyed very much . The meat servings are very generous & I was satisfied for how much extra tendon I got for $2. I haven't had pho this enjoyable in a while I wasn't feeling super great upon pick up so I appreciated the prompt and kind service along with the delicious food I will definitely be returning .

    So fresh and so clean.

    Clean, attentive, and delicious. Fresh veggie plates for our bowls of happiness was the winner besides the authentic flavors of our food. Surely will visit again to try their Thai boat noodles.

    We love this place! They are generous with lettuce, basil, mint and bean sprouts. The basil is so fresh we have sprouted cuttings. The spring rolls are delicious and beautiful. And their peanut sauce is hot and sweet! The pho is wonderful. We need to explore more of the menu

    Nothing like one on one with my daddy with Pho. I wanted to share a priceless moment on yelp.

Service is ordinary, she speaks little English but can get by ordering, we order first at the counter the sit anywhere. Braised egg is 2 for $3.50, salty but expected since it's marinated. Came out steaming hot, and yolk was not overly cooked and dry, not bad. Starting with the Chinese hamburger I felt sad and know not to expect too much from the other dishes we ordered. First the meat look different than what others have posted before, and it was kinda dry and too salty to eat. There was no other spice, only the meat juice flavor. The bun they use was stale to eat. Traditional way of making this should be the flaky oily pancake, or at least make the buns softer to eat. The mutton stew was clear and very heartwarming to drink on a cold day. But the portion is super small for the price. The glass noodles were gone in literally two bites. I had none to share with my boyfriend. This dish come with the burger bun too that you can soak them in the soup so I guess this is the extra carb make up for the less noodles. Oil splash noodle is their specialty? It was good but didn't wowed me. Noodles are chewy and well cooked, came with lots of bean sprouts. The sauce is flavorful and actually not too oily which I enjoyed more. You can add the beef for an extra charge, it's the regular braised beef, was just ok. I find it funny that their all food arts on the wall look nothing like the actual way they serve it.

On my most recent visit we ordered mapo tofu with pork intestines off the specials menu - a hybrid of two of my favorite Sichuan-style dishes. The blend of bouncy, savory morsels amidst tender, saucy tofu was at once revolutionary and so obvious; why hadn't I yet seen this at any other restaurant? And sure, innards may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's important for you to know that none of my past orders from the 50+ item menu have ever failed me, whether enjoyed in the restaurant or at home. Maybe you'd prefer the aromatic, classic, perfectly balanced three-cup chicken? Or the sweet-skinned duck, glazed so delicately that specks of sugar crystal threaten to jump off onto the plate as you pick up a juicy slice with your chopsticks? And if you're vegetarian, might you consider the punchy garlic eggplant or the wok-kissed string beans? I could go on. Do yourself a favor and come see for yourself, though I'd recommend parallel parking on the neighborhood streets behind the restaurant rather than the rocky parking lot, to save you some trouble. Bring friends and chow down family style - you'll need help covering as much of the menu as you can, but you'll definitely have to come back to try everything.

On the table was a holder with chopsticks, soup spoons and napkins. It was a chilly, blustery day - I so enjoyed the Henan-style lamb with noodles soup! Three kinds of noodles: wide, hand-pulled with a nice chew; thin, textured tofu; crystal. Happy with the two quail eggs. There was a nice amount of wood ear fungus, kelp? and fresh cilantro. The lamb was tender and the broth flavorful. I saved half of the soup for dinner and chowed down on the pork bun. It was hot and toasty from the bun being grilled.

I thought it was solid and it is actually enough for 2 meals to be honest. Noodles were chewy and soak up all the chili oil and garlic flavor. It's a bit oily, there's a puddle at the end but I'd say it's pretty solid. I would say that northern pasta edges this one out just a bit for best chili oil noodles in Houston tho

She immediately asked what we wanted in a rude tone, which set an uncomfortable atmosphere from the start. There was a sign on the table advertising a "free appetizer" if you take a photo and tag the restaurant on social media. I followed the instructions exactly as stated, but when I mentioned it, the server initially refused to honor the promotion. After I pointed out the sign, she appeared upset and walked away. I saw she went to speak to another employee and cracked a smiled and looked over. She later returned and offered a small discount instead. The issue wasn't about the money or the discount, it was the principle. The promotion was clearly advertised, and I simply followed the restaurant's own policy. It was disappointing to feel like the restaurant was reluctant to honor something they were actively promoting. I hope management addresses this because customer service and consistency with advertised promotions make a big difference in the overall dining experience.
