    Pho House Specialty Noodle Soup
    Michelle O.

    I ordered for pick up and the process was seamless. The food was ready when I arrived. I got the beef and brisket pho. While the broth of the pho was flavorful, the portion size here has sadly shrunk. My recent order of the beef & brisket pho contained 5 short pieces of thin, sliced beef and small handful of noodles. The pho broth was a more reasonable size, which was a saving grace. The latest 2 pictures are my most recent order of pho and spring roll while the other 2 pictures are my order from last year for comparison. A little disappointed!

    Really great and friendly service! Came on a Sunday around dinner time and we were seated immediately. Pretty chill spot, only a few other groups in there and it was pretty quiet. Summer rolls were fantastic and refreshing. Pho was absolutely soul warming, really just lovely. My one and only complaint was the grilled chicken on the pad Thai tasted a bit too much like the gas I'm guessing they used for the grill. Other than that, would recommend everything else!

    Pathetic pho portion

    I don't know what happened but today I ordered a take out for pho and the portion is the smallest portion I ever had, across different pho restaurants. Their previous portion is not that bad before. In other restaurant, 2 pho portions can feed 3 of us. Furthermore, the beef meat is already cooked where usually, is left raw for take out. Even the bean sprout portion is small and they didn't give mint and basil leaves. In summary, meat ends up overcooked, incomplete and I am still hungry after the meal. Hence, only 2 star. Don't think I'll come back

    Pleasantly surprised to find this place with delicious pho and banh mi. You wouldn't miss a lot if you skip the spring roll but I do like the banh mi. It's good. Service was also great, we came in around 3 pm where there's no crowd and the place is quiet and nice. I do recommend the grilled beef banh mi, the bread is lightly toasted and the grilled beef is tender and tasty. I remembered our host saying you can't go wrong with any banh mi filling you choose, so when I come back next time I will try a different one.

    In my opinion, this is one of the staple Vietnamese spots in town. I usually get the beef cubes platter when I got to Vietnamese restaurants but this time I wanted to try their Pho. Boy.. This place made me fall in love with Pho again. The broth was so good and the meat was tender. There is plenty of seating inside or you can take out as well. For Vietnamese places in town, this is one of the top places on my list.

    Curry Noodles with chicken

    Ordered curry noodles with chicken for takeout. I liked the taste and I'm glad it's not spicy. The location in Communipaw is more spacious than the one in Jersey Heights.

    Make sure the curry chicken is not red inside. Tell them well cooked. Other than that, I like their curry stew.

    The food is great (tasty and delicious) and the service is very good…read more Ambiance is nice too. I have been coming here more than 5 times, this is my spot for Vietnamese food. I highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.

    $75+ for the tiniest portions we have ever gotten. Called for takeout and picked up ourselves - not…read moredoordash or uber eats. Left a $10 cash tip which we regret after opening the food. Stuffed calamari ($25) - there were literally 3 in the dish. 3. I ate one and you're seeing everything else we got. Beef rendang ($24) - 4 pieces of beef. Not wagyu... Pork w spring rolls on vermicelli ($24) - reasonable enough portion but very overcooked. Should be a staple of any Viet spot so idk what they're doing here Would call them right now but they close at 9.... on a Saturday.... I will update this review if I'm able to reach them during biz hours for a resolution but this is easily the most disappointing meal I've had all year. Save your hard earned money and go to Ela's greek or literally anywhere else on this block, even Dominos. EDIT: Went in next day and spoke to a manager, only mentioned portion size and showed the picture, didn't get a chance to say anything about everything being overcooked. He had clearly heard these complaints about portion size before, because he immediately launched into saying the cut of beef + tendon they use for the rendang yields that as their standard portion size. He refunded the calamari. I still won't be going back and would never recommend this place, but wanted to acknowledge the resolution. Also my husband unfortunately wasn't there to speak to them, but he's been in restaurants for 25 years and knows they served chuck, not a fancy cut...

    A Decade of Love on a Plate: A Local Favorite That Punches Above Its Weight…read more This place is the definition of a neighborhood gem--the kind you almost want to keep secret, yet can't stop yourself from praising. Cheap and cheerful on the surface, it punches way above its weight class, delivering inventive, clean, Asian-inspired food that's masterfully cooked by clearly skilled hands--and made with real love. I've been coming back year after year for most of this restaurant's 10-year lifespan, and that consistency is no accident. Every dish tastes intentional, thoughtful, and deeply satisfying, with a clear goal: to feed people love on a plate. It's a super veggie/vegan friendly that easily wins over even my "meat and potatoes" husband--who happily cleans his plate every time. In an era where genuine hospitality feels increasingly rare, Perry single-handedly restored my faith that quality service is not extinct. Warm, attentive, and authentically kind, Perry makes every guest feel seen, welcome, and cared for--without pretense or attitude. This is food that nourishes, service that uplifts, and a place that keeps you coming back not just for the flavors, but for how it makes you feel. A true neighborhood treasure.

    Mediocre food and very slow service!…read more This place was a disappointment for what I hoped from a highly rated ramen place in the area. The service was quite slow, almost waited 1 hour for entrees to be brought to the table. It's a small place with limited staff working everything. The food was fairly basic. The fried rice seemed to be bland and below par despite ordering the spicy version. My friend who ordered the ramen liked the soup but the meat was not fully cooked and felt chewy.

    We've lived up the block from this place for 3 years and finally sat down to dine in. It was empty…read moreand the girl serving us was the only one there and didn't really provide us with customer service. We had to wait 15 minutes just for our sodas. The dishes are very unique in cultural sourcing - it's not what you expect of a regular Chinese restaurant. The servings are HUGE and good for 2 servings. The ambiance is not that great even though there's a big space and there was a lot of junk sitting around the place like extra stock of drinks and boxes all over the place. I don't think people really eat-in here. When I did takeout, it was still not worth the price of other similar restaurants in the area. Also this place doesn't have combinations sold together -- you have to buy rice on the side for EVERY dish which is not a traditional way to serve each dish in general. The prices here are not worth trying it - way overpriced and overcharged! Should be more affordable since we do not get the rice with the combination plates.
