1 month agoUpdate: 2/20/2025: This is definitely one of my favorite places to come to. I enjoy all the different options of but my favorite is the number five large with extra peppers. However, the spring rolls are a must have item for me as well, but after eating so much I have to have a cafe sua da or iced coffee it’s delicious I recommend spending at least an hour, lol the portions are amazing Number one I’m a huge Vietnamese food fan growing up in Seattle I got to eat it all the time and I absolutely love this place they’ve done so well to make the food convenient and easy and it’s perfect to enjoy outside. I had to of course had to have the pho with beef and tendon it was the number two on the menu I was greeted immediately and by the way everybody is very friendly, even the interior of the restaurant makes me excited for the days when we can actually go back inside again. They kept everything very clean sanitizers available at the front desk if you want good cheap food then you need to come here this place is beautiful they’re working very hard I am coming back!! One thing I love is to get the extra peppers of course in hot weather that’s not desirable but vitamin C and healthy content load up the bean sprouts let the broth soak in through the super mouth watering I’m going to try many other items on the menu!

1 month ago*Delayed post from May ‘25 Came here for some comfort food and left very satisfied! Our party of 2 waited about 20 minutes for a table to open up around 8pm on a Sunday as it was packed, with large parties waiting both in and outside the restaurant. Our server was short with us, not very hospitable, and we had to ask for things multiple times, but the food was so good I honestly don’t think the service is a deal breaker for going here. The atmosphere is very family oriented too, with long tables and large, shareable portions for everyone to get a little bit of everything. We ordered the Cha Gio (Fried Egg Rolls), which came out burning hot and were crispy, well stuffed, and had a fantastic savory flavor. Wrap the lettuce and vegetables around a roll and dip it in the fish sauce for a great combination of flavors, textures, and temperatures. We also ordered the Pho with Beef Flank and Brisket. The broth was full of umami flavor and the beef was tender, falling apart as we scooped it up into a second bowl for sharing. I suggest ordering additional vegetables on the side to load up on the fresh ingredients for a balanced bite.

2 month agoMy family and I came to try this place since their friends said it opened recently. We think the food was good. This was my family's second visit! We definitely recommend for the price and portion size! - Bun bo hue (no onion): the broth is a little bland, i added black pepper and a bit of salt. it's not as flavorful as i had hoped. it came with chicken, beef and tendon. the beef was not super fatty so that's a plus. The only reason it has at least a 3 star is portion size. 3.5/5 - Egg roll: this is our favorite. we could eat this as the main dish and have came back to buy more of it. the meat to vegetables ratio is perfect, not too much vegetable filling. it was super crunchy and perfect deep fried. 5/5 Service: Nothing out of the ordinary, simple. It was a little hard to get a hold of them to get fork for a friend of ours but ordinary attentiveness. Atmospheres: not too loud, not too bright and plenty of space. If you have left overs, ask for boxes then you pay at the front table. Overall, Great experience. The food is okay. I'd recommend the egg rolls only. If you like it a little less well seasoned/salty or less spice/kick in your food then this would be for you!

2 month agoAbsolutely incredible food! Their shrimp pho is both cheap, delicious, and is offered in huge portions! Their shrimp spring rolls are amazing too! The fried pork rolls are good as well, not too deep fried at all. Additionally, the service & atmosphere were both amazing as well!! We always receive our food less than 10 minutes after we sit down, and the restaurant is decorated beautifully!

2 month agoAs an extreme pho lover, I take my soup really seriously! This place is the perfect spot to satisfy my quick and random pho craving. However, there’s a few suggestions I would make. Firstly, I would like the broth to be more hot. Most of the time, the broth comes out lukewarm to medium hot ish, which throws me off a bit. Secondly, the workers tend to stare at their customers a lot, which is probably because they are new and they want to see their customers reaction, but to be honest, I feel like I have to be self aware of how I eat lol. Besides that, I love this place, it’s clean and even the bathroom is nice!!

3 month agoAbsolutely enormous bowl of shrimp pho with large amount of shrimp. So delicious! Ordered the #43, I think, grilled beef or pork and egg rolls over noodles with lettuce and cucumber to take with me. Excellent! Reasonably priced, very nice restaurant.
