Pho was delicious, it was a bit sweet, but overall perfectly balanced. The service was quick which was greatly appreciated. The ambiance was a bit cramped, but it's ok, the pho makes up for it. Everything tasted fresh which was great, from the noodles to the meat, clean tasting. The broth was clean and not cloudy and fatty. I would go back here again. I hope they adjust the sweetness levels!

They do good job Pho soup. Service they very fast and the food taste excellent. Sometime very busy but that just mean the food is good. Sometime the chair feel uncomfortable but that ok because everything is they do very well.

This might be the best Pho I've ever had. Many Vietnamese friends agree with me. The service is fast and efficient. Clean too. Not necessarily friendly, but not rude either. It's a busy restaurant!

I enjoyed the #1, to-go, for two days while being sick. It's filling and yummy. I would definitely get another #1. I want to go again and eat at the restaurant just to experience any difference, if it exists, between to-go and dining in.

1. Writing your name on the list & wait to be called.
2. Lady comes with menus
3. Lady comes back very fast to take order while you're still trying to decide but that's ok, you quickly pick one & hope it's the right one
3. Food comes out quick & you eat
Typical pho restaurant with indoor & outdoor seating so plenty of seats.
Menu limited though but covers sufficient toppings but tells you they focuses on the pho.
I think the soup tastes pretty clean & refreshing.
Ordered 2 large pho as we usually split with our 2 kiddos, but the noodles ratio to soup was a bit off so we actually had to order a side noodle. Big bowl of soup to what appears to a reg size noodles.
Ordered side rib to try which is very tender but I don't think worth 7.55 as many places include this as their #1 special that costs like 2 more.
The meatball pho surprised me with the quantity! Usually places cuts them I half and you get like 4 whole pieces but these are whole pieces.
The coffee was a bit bitter, could used a bit more condensed milk but tolerable and very strong.
Overall good pho but I'd try somewhere else if I'm the area.
