Excellent Chicken Curry Noodles & Banh Mi
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I had the chicken curry noodle soup and a chicken banh mi. Both were excellent.
The soup, in particular, was the best thing I've eaten in a long time, incredibly flavorful. I also appreciated the good amount of food for the price.

Favorite Pho and Banh Mi!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the chicken pho, and it was truly excellent. The chicken pieces were perfectly prepared, free of any fat or grizzly bits.
The broth had a really good flavor and was seasoned well. I also tried their chicken banh mi, and the bread was perfect. The chicken was seasoned well, making it a very satisfying meal overall.
This place is now one of my favorite pho spots.

Great Food, Reasonable Price
My experience at this restaurant was positive. The parking is free, and the environment is relatively clean. The price is reasonable for this area, and the taste of the food is good.
It's definitely much better than the nearby stores. It is worth recommending.

Best Pho in a Long Time!
My experience at this restaurant was genuinely fantastic, offering some of the best pho I've had in a really long time. I ordered the rare beef pho, and the meat flavor was absolutely delicious. The broth was equally delicious, and the proportions were perfect.
To top it off, the Thai iced tea was really great; I regretted only ordering one and wished I had ordered two.

Excellent Pho and Great Patio
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food was so good that everyone at the table was quietly enjoying their meals. I particularly enjoyed the Pho, which was on point with plenty of meat and a delicious broth.
I will definitely be making a trip back here the next time I'm in town. Additionally, the outdoor patio eating was quite nice.

Rude Staff Ruined Dinner Experience
My experience at this restaurant was unfortunately marred by the extremely rude behavior of the staff member at the front. My husband, who doesn't speak English, was trying to communicate, and I attempted to translate for him. However, the staff member was in a really bad mood.
After he paid, the staff member slammed the food on the counter and turned his back. It's disheartening to see people working with such a negative attitude. The service was a significant letdown, impacting the overall atmosphere.

Seriously Dank Pho, Worth the Price
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially with their seriously dank pho. While it was a bit on the pricier side at $20 for a large, the amount of meat in the bowl was incredible, even more so than the noodles. I was very, very happy with the food and would definitely come back here SOON, especially if I lived closer.
The Service, Atmosphere, and Food all received a perfect 5/5 rating.

Tender Beef and Great Portions
My experience at this restaurant was a pleasant surprise, as I went on a whim before a Padres game. I was impressed with the really good portions and the really good meat quality. The beef was probably some of the most tender I've had at a pho restaurant.
Considering what they're offering, the prices were decently priced.

Small Portions, Okay Food, Good Service
My experience at this restaurant involved ordering "The small" portion for $15 + tax. I've had larger "small" portions elsewhere that were more filling; this one was not. The food was just okay, and the broth lacked the savory depth I prefer.
The dining area is not very large but feels nice and open. The service was good.

Fantastic Pho Spot in San Diego
My go-to pho spot in San Diego, conveniently located near the Downtown Gaslamp and convention center. The food quality is consistently fantastic, and the staff are incredibly nice. I particularly enjoy their vegetarian pho!
