Pho was great but personally I prefer thinner noodles. The thick noodles sucks up a lot of the broth so it makes the texture a little soggy. The tenderloin and meat was perfect, it was really soft and easy to chew. Broth was a bit oily but still tasty. Portions and prices were reasonable but the real star of the show is the lemongrass beef jerky. It was so so delicious! 10/10 would buy again 😋
Love the newly renovated vibe and the food was delicious! The fried rice had a nice smoky flavor and the sesame chicken was tasty and crispy. The pho had a balanced flavor ratio but was a little salty with slightly larger noodles than we are used to. The cream cheese wontons were also delicious! Attentive service.
Pho is good, but not outstanding. It’s the type you want on a cold day and you want something savory. The fatter noodles are what makes this place stand out. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and want some homey pho.
Came here for the first time after work as I was super hungry. We ordered a rice platter plate, fried chicken wings and chicken fried rice. I always try rice platters everywhere I go and honestly this was not one of the best that I’ve had. It was salty especially the fish sauce that came with it. Was disappointed in that so I gave the rest to my boyfriend. We asked for just chicken fried rice and they came back with fried rice but no chicken. Everything was over priced. I’ve honestly had better and for better pricing.
My first time here. A very good hole in the wall that you don’t want to miss. Got an egg roll noodle salad (bun) with some cream cheese wontons on the side. I usually always ask for extra sauce for the salad since some places never give you enough, but they give you enough. I’m now saving the second container for something else. Egg rolls were filled heartily, crispy, and just so good. Wontons were perfectly fried too. I’ll come back again when I work in the area. Go eat here, you’ll have no regrets.
I went here with my mom last night after work for the first time. The service was great! Greeted by a sweet young lady who made the most amazing Thai jelly tea! There was tons to choose from on the menu. Everything was super fresh! Not only do you get a huge amount of food per serving, but they don’t skimp on the meat! I do wish the egg rolls were bigger, but that’s my only complaint. This is one hidden jem that you don’t want to overlook. I’m definitely going back with my partner!
There is a 4% fee for credit cards.
I ordered the shrimp and pork spring rolls. The spring rolls and sauce were excellent; the pho not so much. I didn’t like the broth and they use wide rice noodles. My other favorite item is their wonton soup.

On another note, there is a section of the dining that is for employees only. The person working the register was also preparing vegetables. Not one time did I see them without wash their hands. If you have to prep food, wash your hands after handling money.
Reminds me of my moms restaurant. Being able to enjoy some home cooked food in this little hole in the wall. Cant gatekeep this one; gotta support our people! Fresh spring rolls were great; a lil too much mint but i just picked them out.
I know, I suck. But broth alone without condiments was already superior than Quangs in minneapolis. 9.2/10
I will say the vietnamese coffee serving size was too small.
