Came here for brunch with some friends. Service was good and our server was friendly. The mimosas were reasonably priced compared to other places.

The food was decent and they had a decent selection of foods but a bit on the pricier side from what I was expecting.

I wouldn’t mind coming again for sure because it had a cozy vibe to it and overall had a good experience.
Came here for a celebration with a large group. They were only able to accommodate us at an earlier time (5pm) since it’s a smaller space and not really meant for large groups. Definitely more for intimate dinners.

We used their valet services which is really one guy running around, and the staff didn’t seem to be too knowledgeable on how much it costs since it’s another company (it’s $20).

The staff here were very courteous and service was great, (but it was also super early so there were maybe 2 other tables seated at the time). We ordered a lot of food and everything tasted delicious. The seafood appetizers were so tender and delicious, I would highly recommend them. The only thing I was a bit disappointed in was the carbonara. It wasted pretty mediocre in my opinion. Other than that, we had a great experience here.

The prices here are really great and the rolls were made quickly.
They tasted good especially for the price but because they’re a smaller shop the food isn’t as fresh.

I wouldn’t mind ordering from here again considering their price point.
Family run restaurant by a Vietnamese family!
Love how extensive their menu is and how authentic the pho is. As some of the other reviews mentioned, their broth is REALLY good. I made the mistake of adding sauce to it before even tasting it which you do not need to. In fact, do not do it. The broth is perfect as is.

Prices are reasonable for the portion and if you’re into spicy food, they make their own hot sauce you can buy as well!

I was a bit off put by some of the negative reviews here but decided to give this place a try anyways.

I ordered delivery directly through them and not through one of the other delivery apps. (I would recommend this btw). For one thing, I got my order and I called them after placing my order to ensure they saw it and were processing it after some of the negative reviews here but they told me they were already in the process of making it. Also, they say right on their site that delivery through them takes around an hour so you shouldn’t expect anything less. From the time I ordered to the time I got my delivery, it was an hour so I can’t blame them for being honest upfront.

Food was reasonably priced considering everything has gone up in price these days. Portion sizes matched the prices and every dish was hot and tasty. The only one I didn’t quite like was the deep fried squid. I was hoping it’d be tender but it was a bit on the chewier side and it lacked salt.

I would order from here again. Everything was packaged well, portion sizes were good, price was reasonable and food was tasty. Delivery was on time and seamless.
