Good Chicken Pho, Skip the Beef
As a Vietnamese, I found the Chicken Pho here to be very good. The broth was particularly solid. However, the portions could be bigger.
I do not recommend the Beef Pho.

Great Vietnamese Food and Chill Vibe
I'm so glad there's finally a Vietnamese restaurant in this area! I have eaten here many times and love the food and chill environment. The good food is always served quickly, and the nice staff are a pleasure.
I also appreciate that they have big windows.

Incredible Pho and Service!
My experience at this little family spot was absolutely fantastic. I had the most delicious pho I’ve ever tasted, and I’ve tried a lot. The noodles were incredible, and the quality of all ingredients was top-notch.
The service was also incredible – kind, hardworking, and just delicious! I highly recommend this place.

Bland Pho, Nice Staff
As a Vietnamese person, I'm always excited to try new pho places in the city. Sadly, the pho dac biet here was really bland. Considering the price, I'd honestly rather go to Richmond or Sunset for better.
The portion was large and came with plenty of meat, though. I would not get it again. The staff were very nice and attentive.
I'd come back to try more of the non-soup offerings, as those are a bit easier to get right. I will update this review if I ever go back.

Delicious Wonton Soup and Delightful Service!
I'm so glad we stumbled across this place and decided to stop. The wonton noodle soup was delicious, and the service was delightful! It was a quiet atmosphere, making it easy to talk.
We were a group of 3-4 people and enjoyed dinner, with the price per person being $10–20. The food, service, and atmosphere all received a 5-star rating.

Delicious Pho, Fairly Priced!
My experience at this restaurant was really delicious! I stopped by and the food was quick to arrive. Everything was well portioned and fair priced.
I particularly enjoyed the chicken pho, which was a standout dish. I will definitely return.

Amazing Bahn Mi and Spring Rolls!
I had an amazing experience at this restaurant! I ordered bahn mi and spring rolls to go, and they were fantastic. The place is a true gem – it was clean, the service was fast, and the location is prime.
I'm hoping this will be my new spot for pho, and I'm already a repeat customer for their bahn mi sandwiches.

Delicious Pho and Garlic Noodles!
I'm so glad this place opened up. We've come back multiple times for their beef and chicken pho as well as the garlic noodle special entree with grilled pork – all very delicious! The imperial roll and fresh spring rolls were also good, with the peanut sauce being a little sweeter than I'm used to.
Good portion size as well and friendly staff. The chicken pho has definitely filled the Turtle Tower-shaped hole in my husband's heart 😂.

Phenomenal Pho and Savory Chicken!
My experience at this restaurant was absolutely phenomenal! Hands down, the best pho we’ve had in the city – it was deep, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The five-spice chicken with rice was just as impressive, offering rich and savory flavors.
On top of that, the service was great. Without a doubt, this spot has earned a place among our new go-to favorites.
