I was craving pho but my usual place was closed on NYE so I tried here. The flavor was good but the amount of food for the price was not worth it in my opinion. One meatball was sliced into three pieces and one beef shank cut in three pieces? I'll stick to my usual place.

This place serves an awesome bowl of pho. The beef stock with an exotic blend of spices topped w sprouts, fresh basil and a dab of Sriracha and hoisin puts it over the top. You can choose a variety of meat in the bowl. I usually get rare steak but the meatballs or brisket make this simple dish a very hardy meal a side of dumplings or fresh rolls compliment pho. This family run restaurant is a place to get some authentic comfort food.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Michael Clarkstar · Mar 2025

It was epic, and it’s definitely a new hangout spot for me! My waiter did vanish for a spell, but things eventually turned out pretty good. The food was good, not many selections, but decent quality. Would definitely recommend coming to hang out here, but keep your wait staff on their toes - if not, it may be Chinese New Year till they return to render service. Cool place, and nothing remotely bad to say, but wait service needs a slight tune up… More reviews, and cool adventures coming soon… Support me by following, and telling others about my professional reviews.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Alex Markiewicz · Feb 2026

I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately it was a disappointing experience. I ordered takeout, and the pho was packed in a styrofoam cup with no sealing or wrapping. It ended up spilling in my car, which was incredibly frustrating and could have easily been avoided with better packaging. The portion size was smaller than expected for the price, and the overall quality didn’t stand out. Customer service was also less attentive than I would have liked. With improvements to packaging, flavor, and service, this place has potential — but as it stands, I wouldn’t be eager to return.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mark S. · Oct 2025

This was a very positive experience. I was looking for a good bowl of pho and found this family owned restaurant. Definitely more flavorful than the chains that I've been forced to go to because they're closer. The broth was good, the portion was adequate, though I love a very large bowl of pho... The service was great and the atmosphere was clean and as expected. I would say that pricing is a bit on the higher side than I would have expected for what I received, and in comparison to other places I've been. All in all, a positive experience and I will definitely try some additional items on the menu.
