We came here because of the vegan section of the menu, which we definitely appreciate…read more I ordered the vegan spicy lemongrass pho ($16.75) and vegan tofu lemongrass saute ($16). Both supposedly come with veggies, but the veggie portions were pathetic: a few slices of carrot, 2-3 pieces of snap peas in the soup; onions in the lemongrass tofu, plus a few pieces of raw cabbage, carrot and daikon on the side with the rice). The main portions were only moderate. The pho had a few pieces of each of the vegan beef and tofu, a moderate vermicelli portions, and admittedly a nice salty broth. Not the worst we've had, and I guess I shouldn't complain about vegan options in a town like this, but this was a pretty lacklustre meal given the portions and lack of veggies. Hard to recommend it for that reason.

This was one of the best Thai restaurants we've been to! It's a small family run business and their…read moreservice is top notch! However, the prices were a bit on the higher end and the portions were smaller than what we are used to with Thai food but it was worth it. It was our first time trying Tom yum and Tom kha soups. Both were delicious but the Tom yum was soo good. The panang chicken curry was also really delicious. The spice was spot on and there was a lot of chicken which was appreciated. Overall, great experience and we will definitely go again if we are ever in the area!

Don't sleep on this restaurant just because it's at the Hard Rock Casino - Jubao Palace Noodle Bar…read moreslaps so good, it will make you "hit" on a hard 20. After being here a few times, Jubao Noodle Bar is where it's at and truthfully do fine by itself without the casino. So at this point, you should already know that Jubao Noodle Bar is located within the Seminole Hard Rock Casino & Hotel - Tampa. However, it should be recognized that navigating the casino floor does get frustrating. The easiest point of reference is to first understand that the base casino floor is essentially separated into two parts (Part one is where the curved escalators and hotel towers are at and part 2 is the larger part, containing the Hard Rock Cafe and the majority of the table games). Jubao Palace Noodle Bar is located right after the point where the hall from part one connects to part 2. Clear as mud right? Now that you've successfully navigated here, it should be noted that the line and wait can get ridiculous. Not sure if there are specific times when it gets super busy, but it seems like it doesn't die down after lunch hours hit. The small size and amount of tables doesn't necessarily accommodate to the traffic. Be prepared to wait. Speaking of tables, there are several regular tables that seat up to 4 patrons, however the majority of the seating are high tops and bar seating. Don't be alarmed if you get paired at the high tops with other random patrons. The menu itself is very simple, but I can assure you that you can't really go wrong with any of the choices. My "go-to's" are usually the roast duck noodle soup (with egg noodles) and any of the fried rice (crab is the best though). They do offer snow pea leaves which is a Cantonese cuisine classic. It's a great restaurant that is overshadowed by the venue that it's located in.

We arrived around 10:15 p.m. on a Friday night, with the restaurant closing at 11:00 p.m. Maybe that contributed to our experience, although several other parties were seated after us, so we weren't the last customers of the evening. We ordered quickly since we already knew what we wanted. My partner ordered the special, I ordered the ramen, and we shared the fried shrimp dumplings as an appetizer. Our server was friendly and attentive, though it was clear the staff was beginning to transition into closing mode. Unfortunately, that affected the atmosphere. While we were still eating, employees were spraying tables and mopping nearby. The smell of cleaning chemicals mixed with our food, which made the dining experience less enjoyable. When my ramen arrived, it looked more like a wonton soup or pho than the ramen I was expecting. I didn't question it because I assumed it might be their interpretation of the dish. However, the broth was quite bland, and the vegetables were still somewhat undercooked. The chicken had no seasoning, it tasted like it was boiled within the broth. After a few bites and sips, I decided not to finish it. My partner seemed to enjoy his meal, though he tends to be pretty easygoing when it comes to food. I didn't try his dish since it was very spicy and that's not really my thing. The restaurant is in a great location on Central Avenue, which makes it a fun area to walk around and people-watch. However, with most dishes priced around $20, I expected a better overall experience and higher quality food. Unfortunately, this isn't a place I would return to.

The servers could not have been friendlier and answered the many questions we had about the menu. The menu is huge with many different options, but I had to try the Pho with ribeye and brisket. I was not disappointed at all as the broth was delicious and it was a huge serving (I upgraded to jumbo and it was worth it). My wife had chicken stir fry with Udon noodles and it was good. My daughter had drunken noodles and it was also very good. None of us could finish our meals and we took home boxes of food. We liked everything so much we even ordered fried rice to go. The service was absolutely fantastic and all the staff were also friendly and helpful. Portions were great and the prices were very fair. Overall one of the best new places we've tried in the last year and we will definitely be back.

I got the chicken pho and there is SO MUCH you get- so it's definitely worth the price ($15 which was really reasonable in my opinion). This was perfect for the gloomy weather and the little cold I came down with. We tried the krab rangoon and the fried tofu which were both good as well! I love the crunch to the rangoon and it was balance of filling to size. Everyone else in my family got the Vong Way which they all really enjoyed. You can also swap out things in the bowls (ex- if you don't want chicken in the vong way you can swap it out for tofu, which is what my parents did). Our waiter was super kind and helpful and kept checking in on us. Inside itself it cute with all the doodles on the walls and floors. Even in the restrooms had doodles.
