The is the most welcoming place I have ever been to super kind staff specially VN made my day I recommend to everyone!!

Pho
Emma P.

I LOVE THIS SPOT. The servers are always so kind and friendly and they always suggest the perfect bowl for you. The pho is always great and so are their banh mi's and summer rolls. They're always busy but other than that the ambiance is cool.

Pho

The worst pho I had ever had. No flavor. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The soursop smoothie was pretty tasty. I thought I was stumbling into a hidden gem. But as I continued to see small groups of college kids roll in after I ordered I knew this place wasn't going to meet my expectations. You can serve college kids anything and they're happy lol Prices were reasonable, the portion was a nice size but the flavor just wasn't there. Now I have to buy dinner elsewhere because honestly I'm not forcing myself to eat it.

Nice full bowl!

I gave this 5 stars 11 years ago but have since had a lot more Pho. This is a very thin traditional clear stock. Good flavor. Has a fair amount of salt or msg in it. Not a lot of meat in my #12. Large was $16.50 and the coffee was $5.75. So, kind of a pricey lunch, but it is fast, reliable, friendly and the noodles are perfect. These days a tend to like a more full bodied stock. Best I have found is Nam Pho over in Annapolis. It's really good. She even makes her own chili sauce (sriracha) from scratch.

Large #1 pho

Overall, Pho VN One really hit the spot for my pho craving. For about 15 bucks, you can receive a HUGE bowl of pho with comes with all of the fixings. There is an option for a smaller bowl for about $14 bucks. I also ordered the fried spring rolls, which were about $4 for two. If you are not super hungry, I would recommend skipping the appetizers because you will receive a huge portion of pho. The ambiance of the restaurant is very modest because you might see a few broken tables with yellow tape blocking it off. However, I think that's kind of par for the course for many Vietnamese restaurants that I have visited in the area. The restaurant is great for larger parties. During my visit, I saw a couple of groups with 6+ people. I thought the service was pretty good because the waiter/owner checked on me a couple of times during my meal. Also, the food will come out fast. For instance, my pho came out before my spring rolls. ;) I was a little annoyed that it took a while to receive my bill. However, I think that was on me because I did not realize that you are supposed to get your bill and pay at the register. Although the food was great, I do not think that I will go too far out of my way (e.g., driving more than 20 minutes) to dine here. However, if I have a pho craving while in the Beltsville area, I'll definitely will return.

Well done round and tendon
Leizle A.

If I am being honest for a large bowl, it's very little meat and noodles here and I even bought extra meatballs. I tried to order extra tendon but they said they only have enough for pho and not for a side. Doesn't make sense to me if you're going to charge extra and then say you can't do it. Meatballs were just okay. The broth was just okay. I wanted to ask for extra of the bean sprouts etc, but honestly wasn't enough food to take any home. Usually if I place a large order at other pho restaurants I have plenty left to take home. For the price I do not think it's the best value, but it's just okay. I did enjoy my Vietnamese iced coffee. The service was fine.

Thai tea, Pho #1
Brandon K.

Today I mistakenly tipped with a much larger bill I didn't see and the hostess was kind enough to double-check / let me know without hesitating. I am so grateful for the honesty (and did tip extra after). As I mentioned in a previous review, the pho was flavorful and hit the right spot - would recommend!

I ordered the pastichio and spanakopita and omgggg it's so good. The pastichio came with pita and side salad. I am obsessed; it hits every single time. I love the crisp edges on the top of the pastichio and the way the pasta and bechamel melt into the meat - it's very satisfying. I ordered my food directly on their site for pickup. It was ready when it said it would be and everyone was kind in handing it off and letting me know where the utensil and napkins are if needed. The restaurant is cute. My friend and I have sat outside to eat once to enjoy our food and it was relatively calm and quiet. I love this place so much and maybe someday I'll stray from my usual but ehhh it's ok.

The nice crust on the pork, fries, and fresh chopped veggies separate this gyro for me. Definitely worth a stop next time you're not sure what to eat. The menu is very complete, something for everyone. The service is always prompt and friendly. The gyros, calamari, and other items are cooked to order, so you can call ahead if you don't want to wait. The sitting area is not very big, but I believe they have arranged the space to make it comfortable without being too crowded. Very cute Greek decorated with a beautiful picture of Greece for a complete Greek experience. 100/10 recommend

Found this place after walking around UMD and looking for a local spot to eat. Saw the reviews…read morehere and went with my mother. I will admit I was skeptical when I drove up to park in another hellish mixed use development. It screamed chain and average from the outside, inside...well I was wrong. Nice decor although with a lot of QR codes scaring me (after wrestling for 8 minutes with QR code parking in back) that I might have to order that way too. Again not. We were immediately seated, super friendly server, the menu was super exciting. Authentic Szechuan dishes and some American Chinese, I wanted a lot! Had some great crab/pork soup dumplings, terrific garlic sauce eggplant, and a standout recommended ghost pepper spicy beef dish with celery, snow pea, peppers. Mom got a shrimp lo me-in. A lot of food brought home. Similar with the couple next to us. Hot pots on the menu, whole fish, so much to try. Flavors great, but especially nice service that made a place that felt like a QR card laden chain a lot more like a homey cozy place.

Ordered takeaway- the vegetable spicy hot pot with bean curd sheets, lotus root, woodear mushrooms,…read moreseaweed, bak choy, and green beans, and the beef shank appetizer. Total came out to approximately $42. What's hot - Menu. Pretty good variety! There's something for everyone, even vegans. There's meat, veggies, tofu, seafood, dumplings, noodles (to include noodle soups), and rice dishes. For example, there's a good variety of the different types of tofu, like bean curd sheet, fried tofu, and regular tofu. There's a good variety of veggies, as well, such as bak chow, egg plant, lotus root, woodear mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, etc... - Quality. Very good, with the exception of the spice level, which is addressed below. Both dishes were well-seasoned and not too salty. There are a good amount of spices involved and more than the standard Chinese spices. The beef in the appetizer was tender, thinly sliced, and also came with a good amount of thinly sliced cucumbers and green scallions. All the veggies, with the exception of the green beans (which were a bit on the raw side) in the hot pot dish were tender, as well. For an ethnic Chinese restaurant, my opinion is this place is legit. - Location. Conveniently located in a plaza with other restaurants and shops. It's pretty easy to find, as well. - Layout. Their layout is pretty good, but their tables do not appear to accommodate groups of more than 4-6. They might be able to push together some tables together, though. - Price. Given the portions and quality for ethnic Chinese food, it's reasonable and good value for money. - Service. I arrived a few minutes after I was originally told my order would be ready. My takeaway order was packed and ready when I arrived. The hot pot dish I ordered comes with rice, which was enough for 2 people. The food was also well packed- no leaking and the takeaway containers did not fall apart. Their staff appear to speak both English and Mandarin, as well. What's not - Spice level. For the hot pot dish, I ordered the normal spice level. However, the hot pot dish in combination with the the beef shank appetizer was a bit too much. I could definitely feel my tongue tingling midway through the dishes. I have a pretty good tolerance for spice, so that I could feel my tongue tingling means something. However, that this was the normal spice level for the hot pot and the appetizer dish was too much. My point is to be prepared. - Parking. There is a small parking lot in the complex, but it can be tight. Street parking is dependent on the day and time you go. This neighborhood is a bit dense, so parking is not the easiest to find. Final Answer Would like to return and am less inclined to order anything spicy.

The ambiance reminded me of a typical Honey Pig KBBQ feel just with a comfier waiting area with some reclining chairs, rocking chairs and couches. If you enjoy Honey pig flavors you'll definitely enjoy the bowl lunch options for a quick take away option!

When we checked in with the hostess, she said 20 minutes and I was surprised and happy. We were hungry. That 20 minutes past and then another 20 minutes passed before the hostess finally told us our table was ready. The place was packed. We were at table 22 which is in the front. Shortly, after being seated, I noticed there was a leak in the ceiling dripping onto the floor behind me. It didn't hit me. We waited, and waited, and waited for a server to come to our table. We informed another server that we didn't have one and she said she would go look into it. She didn't. At about 30 minutes we were trying to decide if we should leave, but I decided to go find the hostess and inform her that we did not have a server. 5 minutes later Tim showed up and apologized and took our order. I also informed him of the leak. He asked if I was getting wet I said no, but they should do something. They didn't put a bucket down. They didn't offer us another table. I ordered water. Tim brought a carafe of water and drinks for the other people, but never brought me a cup so we had to find him again and ask for a cup. When the robot arrived with our food, it went to the wrong table. It went to the table next to us, which was empty. Our food finally started to come, and our hot plate was placed. We asked for additional sides and when Tim arrive to check on us we had to inform him that the sides had not arrived. About 3/4 of the way into our meal, another family came in and sat at the table next to us. They were IMMEDIATELY greeted, set up and had their order taken. Also, when the place is full, it's loud. If you are noise sensitive, make sure you have your noise canceling headset. I've been to a few Korean barbecue places and I would say the food here is average. It wasn't awful. It wasn't phenomenal, but it wasn't good enough to make me want to go back.

A friend who is a novice to this type of cuisine, was interested in sampling a variety of Asian style dumplings, and this place definitely fits that description. The spot can get busy during the prime time 6-8pm dining segment, so I'd recommend making reservations to guarantee seating. Located in the heart of Arlington at the intersection of Wilson and Clarendon Blvd, parking can be a challenge but if you're willing to walk, there is usually availability in the surrounding neighborhoods. The interior is beautifully decorated. Tile flooring is complimented by blonde hardwood ceiling and wall accent pieces, while bamboo lighting fixtures provide soft illumination. The menu is rather extensive and runs the gamut from soup based, fried, and steamed dumplings. There are also appetizers such as scallion pancakes, tofu with perserved duck eggs, and dim sum ...but we decided to stick with the more traditional style steamed dumplings. A pot of hot jasmine tea arrived to share and we appreciated the refills of hot water through out the meal. Pork soup dumplings - or xiaolongbao (XLB) - arrived first and I provided a brief primer as to how to enjoy this dish. XLB are delicate steamed dumplings filled with seasoned pork and a rich, savory broth that bursts with flavor when you take a bite. My recommendation was to nibble off a corner, and then allow the contained broth to drain into the soup spoon. If you bite directly into the dumpling first, it will likely make a big mess as soup squirts everywhere. We agreed that the pork broth was extremely flavorful and not too salty. I also suggested making a dipping sauce of the black vinegar, chili oil, and just a tiny splash of soy sauce. Dipping the XLB into the sauce amped up the spice and enhanced the flavor. The other two dumplings arrived a few minutes later. Of the two, the chicken and shitake was preferred. Seasoned chicken and earthy shiitake mushrooms are mixed and then steamed to bring out an umami-rich flavor. This was quite good. I grew up eating this type of pork/cabbage dumpling, so while it was solid, to me, it was quite "boring." The pork dumplings needed the dipping sauce for sure. Service was fine. Dirty plates were removed when appropriate while water glasses and the tea pot refilled when necessary. My only observation, and not a complaint, is that I can understand why some reviews say this place is "expensive." I don't necessarily concur with that assessment since I think the food is quality. However, paying $11-$15 for a plate of 5-8 dumplings can add up quickly. Still, for a restaurant where a diner can try a variety of different dumplings in one spot, I think the prices are reasonable. Dinner for two adults - a pot of tea and three entrees - with tax and tip came to about $61.
