UPDATE: REPOSTING THIS! "Look... the people were really nice. However, the food was pretty rough. Barely any meat in the pho when taken to-go. the soup is not your typical pho, it was a weird variant and maybe i am unfamiliar with this style of pho, but it was truly disappointing. The serving size was so small for $20 per pho and it was $8 for 2 crummy spring rolls that had one shrimp cut in half for each spring roll. The other reviewer that said the peanut sauce was wack, was correct. it was not the normal sauce, it was some weird oil with peanut butter bits floating in it. The crab rangoons were not bad. I just really would not recommend this to someone who really loves pho." - I said this a month ago and took it down because the owner called to harass me questioning why I left a bad review. She called me 2-3 times at 9-10pm at night trying to get ahold of me. She left a voicemail saying she wanted to talk in person and explain to me the purpose of "tax" and "having to pay for bills." At this point I was scared and removed my review but let me just say, if I could leave 0 stars, I would. read more

AMBIENCE When other reviews have mentioned off the beaten path, it surely is! It's a renovated little home style restaurant with 7 little tables. FOOD Crab Rangoon's were tasty - I've always thought these were just cream cheese in wonton wrappers and deep fried but you could actually taste the crab flavoring. They also served it with their homemade sweet and Sur sauce which was delicious! As for entrees we got the stir fry noodles with veggies and the Pho. Firstly, we had thought the pho was only on weekends but it is available EVERYDAY now! The flavors are SOO complex, and unlike any pho I've tasted before. And it's made completely form scratch/no MSG included... they had a side of jalapeño type peppers and Vietnamese peppers they are home grown. My husband loved it so much and he's kins a pho snob! As for the fried noodles, omg they were absolutely delicious - sprinkled with their home made fish sauce , it was the noodles were nicely seasoned and JAM PACKRED with veggies! SERVICE The kindest owners!!! :) read more

Only giving 2 instead of one cuz she stayed open until 8:10 to let us get our food but wow I wish she just said she'd be closed. We ordered rare beef pho to go and she put all the meets and the noodles in the same container so the noodles got mushy and the beef got hard and rubbery on the way back to our place. The broth just tasted like hot grease. The peanut sauce was basically just oil - no flavor. It was 30 minutes both ways to arrrive at a meth house looking place. Waste of an hours drive and $50 bucks. So disappointing. Put it in the trash where it belongs read more

The food was quite expensive and the place is hard to find. The gentleman taking the orders was very cordial and pleasant.

Food is cooked as you order. Chef is amazing. It's a small house and your food is cooked with love. We have gone back several times. read more

Fantastic Vietnamese food! The restaurant is small but the staff really work hard to make you feel welcome, and the food is exceptional. If you care more about quality food and service than ambiance, give it a go. Most everything is made in house (Fish oil and Chili oil in example). read more

Great food , fast service and fresh food good service , very quiet inside Good prices read more

Wonton is amazing. Couldn't stop eating it...thought I wouldn't sit down and eat inside because it is warm and all the lights are off. I hope she is getting enough business because the food is awesome, can't wait to try more read more

Good things come to those who wait! Food is cooked to order, spring rolls came out first though, which was great. They no longer have hamburgers, grilled cheese, or French fries, so it's Vietnamese food only, but it's amazing. The ingredients are so fresh! It's a small house with a handful or so of tables, but with no one else there, our family of 7 was plenty comfortable! Highly recommend if you are in the area and have time for an authentic meal. read more

stopped by due to a change of plans and the staff was super welcoming and very friendly. We got rained it and had some delicious pho, it was a nice little cozy spot. Definitely check it out. read more

Such a hidden little gem. Husband and wife are the most pleasant people and the food is outstanding.

We happened on this place accidently. What a find! It is a little house with about ten tables. At 3:30 Tuesday afternoon, we were the only ones there. My husband and I ordered the Peanut Beef. It was fresh and tasty. The food here is way above the Vietnamese food we get at home. We'll be back. read more

Unique place with good food. Drove here on a super dark night, and was questioning if I was in the right place because it looked like someone's house from the outside. Not a typical restaurant feel. I felt a little freaked out, but so glad I went in and picked up my order! We tried the house vegetable stir fry and fried rice with chicken. Both were delicious, and had the quality of a home cooked meal. Highly recommend! read more

Quaint little restaurant, almost home-style. Ran by an older couple... I love the sweet tea. The food is amazing! Freshly cooked, I had the Roadrunner's Nest. I wish I had taken a picture but the presentation was so appetizing I forgot to. The dish is in a tomato base, hard noodles in a shape of a nest topped with 3 quail eggs. Very good. I also recommend the spring rolls and the garlic pork. read more

These people are wonderful! It's like being in their home. The food is cooked to order and the flavors are so good! Presentation beautiful. Everything is homemade with care. There were 5 of us and all of us agree the food is fabulous! It's a small place, but don't let that out you off. Try this place you won't regret it! read more

This mom and pop spot is delicious. My husband and I have been here about 5 times and have enjoyed it each time. The only item on the menu I did not care for was the roadrunner's nest. It was bland and had way too much going on. I highly recommend the snow pea stir fry, Larry's special, peanut beef, rockin chicken rice and steamed chicken cabbage! The staff was so friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back each time we are in town! read more

We ate here for dinner tonight (first time). It was absolutely fabulous! Freshly made Vietnamese. Terry and Mai take care of their customers. Of you are anywhere near Canyon Lake, TX you should stop bye. We had an egg noodle with beef stir-fry, Garlic Pork, egg noodle soup, egg rolls and crab Rangoons. The rangoons are TO DIE FOR!! In house fish sauce and sweet & sour sauce. Wow. SO good! read more

A friend recommended this place a couple of weeks ago! I decided to try it this week for lunch! First , the menu posted on Yelp must be outdated by years!!! I was there so I decided to try the food! I was the only person there at lunchtime! The Vietnamese lady was friendly enough! They appear to cook everything to order hence the one star! I ordered the "large order of shrimp fried rice" and an egg roll (1). $2.75 for one egg roll. I think the fried rice was like $8.99. So like $13 something with the tax! No problem except the large fried rice was about a nickel okay a dimes worth of perhaps jasmine or basmati rice! The shrimp what there was were these tiny frozen salad shrimp (tasteless) lots of peas (frozen I think) and so small a portion that I had to go buy lunch after that. The "menu" stated the price was $3.99. Finally I do not know who or why all these reviews were more than generous? I like to build up local businesses but don't appreciate just plain wrong info on their website ! read more

Food was not great. Ambiance is terrible - hole in the wall - ac set to 80 bare ceiling - terrible experience. Service was not great. read more

To start, the food is Vietnamese style where the service in this place is spectacular. At the beginning I ordered some egg rolls, which I tell you, you can enjoy the vegetables in it because you feel how fresh they are, they really are made at home. The Garlic pork has a combination of herbs and spices that is extraordinary to the palate and the Wonton Soup is spectacular with that spicy touch but pleasant on the palate. Warning you have to wait for the food, the wait is not extreme, but it isn't worth, because everything is prepared at the moment, so keep prepared for good fresh food. Certainly I invite you to visit this restaurant, you will enjoy it and by the way tell me about your experience.... !!!! read more

Sitting here and thinking about it; I feel that the word shack was not really correct. It's a small simple place but it's nice and always very clean - perhaps not what that word might evoke. I would just say that if you have a large party you might want to do take out. I would also say I agree with the owner on another response - it wouldn't be safe to let your small child run around in here and other patrons wouldn't like that either. They don't have regular fish right now but they've got shrimp and the crab for those delectable Rangoon that I just had! read more

We tried this place because of all the great reviews, well here's another great review! The service was great! I had the Teriyaki chicken and it was delicious. My husband had the wonton soup, egg rolls, and chicken and rice and he enjoyed it so much he wants to go back tomorrow. read more

This is a delicious hidden gem of a restaurant. The woman who cooks the food is so good at what she does. The food is fresh - and she makes it fresh so sometimes the wait for your food can take a little while especially if it's a big order. It's worth the wait though! read more

Roasted peanut beef, garlic pork, & wonton soup were the best I have had! They literally made everything fresh!

The beef and rice plate was really good at a even better price just wish they were on doordash so I could eat it more

Absolutely must have if you live here or are just visiting. Super fresh food every time I have been and that's at least 12 times SO FAR. I have tried just about everything and have yet to not like what was out in front of me and I'm pretty picky read more
