    Organic green tea
    Craig M.

    I feel very conflicted as I write this review, but as someone who prides themselves on being honest in their Yelp reviews, I am going to say what is going through my mind. The food is great, but not excellent. The service is ok, but not great. The position size is over the top and not skimping. Having said all that here is how I came to this conclusion. The day I went, there was one person working the front of the house seating guests, taking phone orders, taking orders, delivering the order and bussing the tables. He was extremely nice and obviously was working hard to take care of his customers, but it did require us to wait longer times between receiving our drinks to when the food arrived and we were able to get our check. For appetizers we ordered the vegetable spring roll and the chicken satay. The vegetable spring role was dry and needed hoisin to make it easier to consume. The chicken satay, I could have eaten a dozen of those. That was the best part about the entire meal. My wife and I both ordered Pho. Hers was all veggies and I had the house large. Mine included steak, beansprout, scallion, beef, onion, flank, tendon, tripe, cilantro and veggies. The tripe was inedible. It was so touch I couldn't even chew it. The steak was good. Flank was ok and tendon was a bit chewy as well. The bowl was so big that I couldn't finish half of it and had to take the rest home. I feel bad in one sense because the owners are very sweet and they put a lot of effort into their food, but they jus fell short on this occasion. I am willing to go back and give them a second chance, but compared to some other places I have had Pho, they are in the middle, but not on the bottom. They are worth trying again in the hopes they correct some of the items I mentioned above.

    This place is amazing, fresh, deep flavors, crips veggies! Nothing bad can be said about the food. You can tell it's been there for a while, the decor is traditional it's quiet and welcoming inside. But the service and menu could use some work. The woman took a very long time. We asked for the bill about 5min after my son finally got his "fresh squeezed lemonade." It was obviously made with some kind of limeade syrup that was all settled and thick at the bottom of the cup and strangely warmish. 5 stars is because the quality of food deserves it and maybe if it's busier they'll hire servers with experience and a sense of urgency.

    Pad Thai

    Unfortunately we won't return. Pad Thai was VERY sweet and I can only describe it as if you imagine Pad Thai coming in a can. My husband always finishes his Pho and only made it a few bites. Steak was hard to chew and fatty. We are leaving hungry. We had to interrupt their tv watching to pay the bill after waiting a long time for someone to come over. Restaurant is clean so there's that I guess.

    Those Pizza Hut keystone windows.

    Love the old Pizza Hut style! Service was quick and efficient. Shrimp fresh rolls awesome. Beef satay best I've ever had. Chicken great also but smaller portion. Prob just by chance. Can't wait to come back to sample more menu items.

    Not the greatest broth for this pho connoisseur but it will do. Even though the broth was decent, the pho noodle itself was al dente, cooked to perfection. The bowl was packed with meats no skimping on that . The shrimp spring roll was fresh and decent. Overall my only place to go for decent pho near work .

    The service was excellent and made me smile. I was hoping for bun cha but was satisfied with beef ball pho. The place looks like a pizza hut converted int a healthy mom and pop restaurant, delightful!

    Pho, beef noodle bowl and spring roll
    Gladys M.

    The food was very good. We had the chicken Pho & beef rice noodle bowl. The interior was very clean and the service was fast & friendly.

    Delicious beef Pho. What a great place.  Basil lime scallions, delicious broth as good as places I've been in San Diego ca

    Food: only got the Pho it was so flavorful and a very large portion! Service: they were greeting guests, taking phone orders, and able to efficiently take care of tables They also had smoothies and other cool drinks will definitely be back a hidden Gem

    Vietnamese egg meatloafmust try!!
    Veronica G.

    Every single time we are in Lewiston! Even if you're not, trust me it is worth the drive!!! this place needs more credit! We absolutely love this place! Being from Texas we know good authentic Vietnamese food..owners are always so humble and welcoming. Hot tea is settling on a cold day! We try different menu items everytime we go but our fav are the Bahn Mi Sandwiches, try with a fried egg! Never leave hungry! Must try if your in Lewiston

    Vermicelli dish with sugar cane
    Christopher D.

    I'd give this place more stars if I could. They're brand new and they're still getting everything running smoothly, but that didn't dampen our enjoyment of our lunch today, which I would call a "symphony of flavors." Everything was fresh, fresh, fresh, the portions abundant and the quality superb. Appetizers were wonderful (spring rolls and crispy pork rolls) and the main dishes were large and exquisite. My mango smoothie with boba balls was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive. Is this a budget restaurant? It is not, but the quality and flavor made lunch worth every penny. Will definitely be back again.

    This is a small hole in the wall looking restaurant right along the Main Street of Biddeford Maine…read moredowntown. We just happened upon it. We are so Happy we did! This was a rare, hidden gem with excellent food and service. We ordered for appetizers, fries dumplings, chicken satay, fried egg rolls, crab rangoon... they were all served with sauces and they were delicious. The portions were adequate for one person. We also ordered Udon noodles with beef which was tasty, very good ... well seasoned but little spicy heat. The portions were enough for taking home almost half the dish. The large Pho was a tasty treat! It had lots of noodles and flavorful broth. I did not think they gave enough green stuff, so i asked for another plate of sprouts and Thai basil. Our serve gladly and promptly brought another plate. If you go here, you'd want to ask for more.

    We ordered for pick up and decided to eat at our Airbnb. The inside is super small but very homey…read more The food was absolutely delicious however although we got larges I felt as though the portion sizes were a bit small. Coming from CT I am a bit more used to a larger amount of chicken, broth, and noodles. However that does not diminish how good the food is. I would have ordered two bowls to go had I known. Finally, the service was very quick. We had barely put our order in and we were already heading over to pick it up because it was ready within 15minutes. I will definitely stop by again if I'm ever in the area and next time I'll definitely have a seat inside.

    We go here every time we're in Portland. Plenty of free parking out back. They've got the best…read moreprices on mushrooms anywhere in the city. The produce can be hit or miss, but the mushrooms are always prime. Same with the fresh herbs. Massive lengths of garlic chives, absolute trees worth of mint, and lots of other weird and delicious leaves of various sorts. I was able to find plenty of pre-chopped frozen lemongrass, which I now will only buy frozen, becuase it's so fresh tasting and not as much of a pain to prepare. I made a soup where I used a full half cup of the stuff, which is never something I'd have done if I had to chop that by hand! Half the items don't have a price sticker or a sign that states the prices, but when you get to the register, they're happy to do a price check for you so that you know what you're paying. I'm assuming that with such a small physical space, and that variety of stuff, it's hard to constantly keep on top of prices on the shelves. If the cashier were annoyed at being asked the price, I'd not shop here, but I've always had them be happy to tell us the prices with no issues. Seriously though the selection is insane. There's stuff that I'd never imagine I can find easily in New England, but it's right there on the shelf. The noodle variety is great, with plenty of gluten free noodles for those who need it. Plenty of dried mushrooms and tea too!
