Good Vietnamese food at optimal price. Many varieties of dishes.
Will come again!
Will come again!
My kids took us, saying it was somehow the best cuisine they had. They did not fail us. Large portions, great staff, and all the food was amazing.
Banhmi sandwich was delicious however the sanitary of this place is a little ehhhhhhh. Eggs rolls were also good. Cash only establishment.
This place is the best! Incredible Thai food with amazing owners and staff that make sure you are well taken care of. We don't even live in Aurora, but have been to this restaurant three times. It is a must-stop for us every time we visit from Wisconsin. I cannot recommend it enough.
Good food. Really nice service. Extensive menu that given a lot of options. I had the veal pho which was good. Great place to get some hot pho and the people there was really friendly and nice.
O man I cannot say enough about this place ... food was amazing service was amazing everything came out fresh and hot ..went out with 4 kids and wife for birthday dinner and walked out so full and happy definitely recommend 👌 trying this place
This is a no frills, cash only hole in the wall. My family has been coming here for years. We go out of our way to get the banh mi sandwiches and the egg rolls. This is one of the few places that make the egg rolls with rice paper instead of the wheat paper. Their fresh spring rolls are good too but can sell out throughout the day. And the ice coffee is a perfect jump-start in the morning. I recommend this place to any foodie. But remember cash only.
If I could, I’d love to rate this restaurant for 10 stars! in my opinion, this is the best restaurant to eat pho soup, fried dumplings and wantons with cheese. large portion sizes, pleasant atmosphere and compliments from the establishment. nice waiters. I definitely recommend it!
Great food. Always enjoy the bento box and calamari 💖
Tried Vietnamese mixed fried rice. So wonder!
Tried Vietnamese mixed fried rice. So wonder!
I have gotten my favorite from them twice now maybe even more and I just didn’t realize it was the same folks. But yesterday I made a large order and I accidentally ordered Thai coffee instead of the Thai tea. Two to be exact the larges on both. Well, when I realized it when I went to pick them up I apologized and I told her I’d be happy to purchase the Thai teas in conjunction to now my Thai coffees. She said; no worries take the coffees and we will have 2 teas also made up. She didn’t have to do that at all! I would have gladly paid another 10 bucks for the other two because it was legit my fault. So thank you 🙏 for being so kind and allowing us to also try the coffee as we had never had those before! This is why I will continue to drive 40 mins from east of Denver to their location for their food because they are LOVELY people, they care, their food is PHENOMENAL and they are easy to park at! Thank you again!
If you want sushi or some other things then this place is for you. The service is really good and the wait is pretty low. As for the sushi, it is also pretty good and so are the appetizers. I haven't gone to a good sushi restaurant in a while but this one is up on my list now. ^^
So good!! The gentleman serving us is very kind and helpful. The appetizer "Heart Attack" Stuffed jalapenos with spicy tuna and cream cheese, fried and topped with unagi sauce was Fantastic and the Sushi was Perfect! The Chef even came to the table to greet us, so nice. 10/10 👌
I used to love the sandwiches here. I went recently and it didn't hit like it used to. Typical Asian strip mall parking situation... very few spaces in a tight corner. I had the fried shrimp rolls and I wouldn't buy again. Cash only
Hidden gem! Great food and wonderful service. I had the Chicken Pho and Chicken Spring rolls, it was so flavorful and fresh. I highly recommend this place!
Such a hidden gem! Amazing ginger ale, chicken dumplings were perfect to start. Mama Lee’s beef curry was divine! Vegetable fried rice was a huge serving and so good. Everything tasted homemade including the ginger ale. We will definitely be back. Thank you!
Pros:
-Decent parking
-Prices are good
-Com tam is standard
-The drinks (sinh to) are cheap than what I am used to seeing
Con
-Sinh to honeydew and soursop were just okay. They use power and kerns juice.

It's everything you'd want and crace in a Viet place. Only behind the best places in the actual land of Vietnam. The food was immaculate with tiny variations from what's usually found in Vietnamese food. Just enough to give you that feeling you go when you first tried Vietnamese food. Be nice to the servers too. Young friendly and polite guys. 9.5/10 for everything.
The pho broth here is delicious, nice and fatty and flavorful. First time trying it, good stuff.
So good! We got the chicken wings, lemon grass chicken and beef fried rice. And combo dry noodles. Everything was outstanding and delicious. Highly recommend. We'll definitely be back next time we visit. The lemon grass chicken was my favorite
The Pho Ga is great, the broth is yummy and the noodles are just right. Parking is super easy and right off the main street. Customer service was friendly and fast. Food came hot and ready to munch on a takeout order. Would recommend and revisit!
Don't order to-go or to get delivered from here. Attached is a picture they have on Door Dash of the Dodging beef. The other sad picture is what I received. You can tell which is which. Their quality has gone done. I've ordered from here before and it's sad seeing how their food quality has gotten.
The vegan pho was without a doubt the best I’ve ever had in my life, the broth is so flavorful and you can really taste the love. I even got the pho through delivery, I can’t imagine how good it is in person.
I sushi all over the world, this place owners by Mike and Mark serves the best damn sushi
Wow... That's all that comes to mind with this place.
By far the most amazing customer service I have ever experienced in my life.
We were only in town for 3 nights and decided to visit, and it was definitely the highlight of our vacation.
Not only was the food amazing (especially the lamb curry), but the employees were so hospitable, friendly, enthusiastic, and fun to talk to.
Brandon, and Twon (spelling?) and the other 2 servers, you guys rock.

If you’re from Southeast Asia, all I can say is it will taste just like home. Definitely will be back.
This little mom and pop restaurant deserves your business. It's run by a very kind couple that takes a lot of pride in their food.
When I walked in, I wasn't really sure if I wanted to stay...it was pretty empty. Sometimes that's not a good sign. But many times it just means they can't afford marketing which is expensive. I took the gamble and decided to stay. I didn't regret it whatsoever. Every dish came out fresh, delicious, and it was wonderful! We didn't have to wait a long time for our food either. What I also like about this establishment is that it has a liquor's license and serves booze. Something that the other local establishment that I usually go to doesn't have. Sure, The atmosphere may not be the most beautiful I've ever been to. But the vibe is what makes those 5 stars .... and that is everything.

Really great sushi. I got the Jalepeno Yellowtail and the Colorado Roll. Both were fresh and tasty.
Far from fancy but I don't care. Every other poke place in town has a "fishy" day once in a while but never these guys. The fish never tastes fishy. The restaurant never smells like fish. I see them clean the prep area after almost every single customer. They even manage to do it while maintaining a better array of options than any other poke spot. There are other places that, at their best, make better food than Poke In the Bowl, but every single one of them has off days. This place is reliable, clean, and always fresh. I'll keep coming here as long as they don't ruin the streak.
Nice little restaurant.
I was in the neighborhood and decided to investigate.
The place is very clean and I ordered because everything looks very fresh.
I was pleased with my order. It's a little pricey for a bowl and a green tea.
My only pet peeve is the plastics used. Not eco-friendly.

We love our experience in Thai Bite of Fusion! The food was very good 👍 My husband ordered Pad Thai and I ordered coconut cream soup 🍲 both delicious were excellent! We would be back there!
Come for the food stay for the hospitality! This was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in Colorado. I recommend getting the ginger ale (it has particles on it but that’s because it’s homemade). Hospitality truly at its best!
Today me and wife went to Saigon Tokyo and we were well served and well feed. Host promptly help us with the menu and drinks. Young lady and completely satisfied with her professionalism.
Terrible service, I just came to pick up to-go food for my Mom. I had to stand in line for 15 mins, and there was only one lady in front of me, and the servers and owner saw me but didn't bother to greed me. I know the owner is making drinks for the customer in front of me, but he can just say, "We'll be right with you." One customer, who knows the owner and server, came in, just walked straight to them and picked up the food he ordered and paid them at the cash register. He totally skipped the line and walked out with his food. Finally, after some time waiting in line, the owner finally acknowledged me and said "uhh what do you want?" I know this is a Vietnamese restaurant, and I don't expect much about customer service, but this is terrible. I am not going to come back here since there are so many good Vietnamese restaurants around this area.
I just don’t get it. I ordered student noodle, pad Thai, and a combo noodle soup. I called my order in on the phone and they said 20 minutes. I arrived 25 minutes later expecting my order to be ready, which my soup was but they didn’t even start my student noodle or pad Thai. I had to wait 20 more minutes before getting my food. While I was waiting I wanted to sit down but then the waitress looked at me like I wasn’t supposed to so I stood back up. 1/5 on service and atmosphere. Now the food. The student noodle and pad Thai were just terrible. It was dry and inconsistent so you get random bites of no flavor and bites of overly saltiness. See the pictures for how clumpy they were. The eggs weren’t cooked well either with burnt edges and sogginess. 1/5 on food.
Omg everything is soo delicious got the combo noodle soup dry with a large bone marrow broth plus Chinese donut stick
The best and affordable food and restaurant in town, only Vietnamese cooking and they serve so many authentic Vietnamese-Asian recipes. Drinks are various and cheaper than other places. Have options for large to small groups of customers, the chefs and workers are amazing they work really hard. Must try Bun Mam (the noodle soup) and Com Tam (Vietnamese Broken Rice). Don't know where to have Cool Vietnamese Ice Coffee with Condensed Milk? They have them all, I really love this place!
Prices out of control now. $1.35 per egg roll. One of those things that used to be beautiful and special is now just a cash grab. What do we as the consumer gain for it’s the prices doubling? Is it twice as tasty? Do they no longer make you feel bad for asking for the fish sauce? Goodbye Achau. I once loved you. Now you’re just a memory.
Uncomfortable ambience. Stared at repeatedly, being the only non-Vietnamese there. Beef stew was heavy-handed and one piece was chewier than leather.
Excelent good food , I'll be back soon thanks
Most of the dishes were good but the fish soup was a bit too sour for my taste. Great value and friendly service.
This is probably the third or fourth time I’ve ordered from here. I have only had their pho, so I wanted to try the banh mi. Ordered the pork. It was delicious! The baguette was fresh and had a good crunch to it and the pork was perfectly seasoned. Not the best or biggest banh mi I’ve ever had but it was definitely delicious and on point. Also ordered the strawberry tea, which was perfectly sweetened, not too sweet. Delicious Pho has never once disappointed me and is a hidden gem.
Come here for rice paper but it tastes very salty. The chicken wings is good in this restaurant.
Steam Pork, Dry tofu and sticky rice , vermicelli and shrimp sauce is so delicious. And deep fried squid —> I recommend these.
And I came back 3 times.
And I came back 3 times.
Their pho is good - I’m surprised this place wasn’t busier when I went (it was a holiday weekend). The staff was very nice and helpful. The only thing I didn’t prefer was red onions in the pho vs white.
I used to love this place but it has certainly gone downhill. I ordered bun dac biet (combination bowl) and was served this. 🤢 26.00 later, asked for extra meat. I was charged for extra meat but did not receive. I will not be back.
This was going to be a five star review which I only give out to places if they were amazing. The food was good and the service was good until we got the bill. We were charged up to $3 extra per dish. I asked one of the staff about it and he said they were waiting on new menus. The waiter wouldn't even honor the advertised price. That is not OK, either you wait to do the price increase or you adjust your current menu. Lots of other places use a sharpie to cross of the old price and write a new one in or they put stickers with the new price on. They could have even told us about the different prices as we were ordering if they wanted to give good customer service. Instead they are dishonest and false advertise. I'm actually tempted to turn them in for false pricing. Don't waste your time.
Hidden gem! Next to the Seafood City Marketplace offer so many vegan options. I ordered a vegan cauliflower appetizer and pan-fried rice noodles with tofu and veggie, both are delicious and reasonably priced. I would definitely go back to try different options.
I’ve been coming here for a long time. This is one of the best spots for bun Bo hue and pho. Always friendly and fast customer service and other than the soups. The rice plates and egg rolls are also super good.
The food taste amazing and is always fresh. I’ve eaten at several Poke places across Houston and this one has it all, large selection of protein, veggies, and toppings. You get plenty of food for your money. I’ve never left hungry or unsatisfied.
This place is good! Prices reasonable, food was fresh (especially the tuna). The place is clean and well maintained, even the bathrooms. Will definitely be back to try different combinations
Fried rice portion got smaller by more then half. Before 2 of us could comfortably eat a fried rice dish, now I myself is not even full after finishing one. This portion is like same as $2/scoop chiness fried rice! This is not a $15 fried rice dish! Since original owner sold this place, it just going down.
The beef pho was very good, and the herbs and bean sprouts were fresh. I ordered a coffee milk tea with tapioca, and it was a great way to finish the meal. Very tasty!
The egg rolls are amazing as is the vast majority of the food here. It’s fast and just amazing. Cash only so make sure you hit up an atm first.
The food tastes good , but they take forever to bring the order in, although the restaurant isn’t too busy.
Additionally we had ordered one pad Thai to dine in , they brought it after waiting 20 min as take out, which didn’t make any sense.
If they improve their customer service , a worthy place to go to.

I fell in love with their fried rice!! We live in the area and found incredible reviews on this restaurant. One day we came to try their food and it was absolutely delicious. Just like the other reviews this place is a hidden gem here in City Heights. I always get the same order which is the House fried rice. Their food comes in big portions and I love to have left overs to enjoy the next day! I highly recommend this Chinese noodle restaurant to anyone!
A lot of different kinds of Vietnamese food conveniently Togo !!!! They sell an assortment of different foods and beverages. I would say tho there banh mi is lacking I would only recommend the BBQ pork because the meat is very good. But sadly there banh mi lack any kind of mayo or pate unless you buy an option which has that. And also make sure to bring cash they don’t accept card. There egg rolls etc other than banh mi very solid. (Not trying to take away customers but right next to them Paris Banh Mi is right around the corner if your Trying to get banh mi)
First: hole-in-the-wall alert 🚨
First impression was: hole in the wall.
Services are amazing: friendly & fast
Got the Banh mi Bo “beef” kho this is really good. And the steak and eggs 🥚 is pretty good. Would go back and get the soup Nam vang. Cash ONLY.

Best Pho in Chicago! The tittle of this restaurant is no lie. I was extremely surprised yet super happy at how good this Pho was and the bbq grilled chicken. I’m a hard critic of food and this place deserves applause 👏🏾
Important notes:
- most used entrance is in back with the big parking lot
- cash only, pay at counter when you’re done
- ask for menu if you need it
There are 2 entrances to the restaurant - the correct one is in the back with the big parking lot ha! If you go around the front you’ll usually find the door locked but if you keep trying to open it someone will come to your aid. If you hear a bird chirping you’re not crazy, there’s a robot bird in the corner. If you go when it’s busy you may have to wait but the staff does sense the urgency and they haven’t forgotten about you. Good customer service! If you don’t already know what you want you’ll have to ask for a menu. My guy got the Nam Vang rice noodle soup and I got the stewed beef rice noodle soup. So good! Don’t forget to squeeze lemon in the dip bowl with salt and chilis. Wonderful dip for the beef! We also got iced lemon juice which was incredibly refreshing. I’m a small person and the small stewed beef rice noodle soup was very filling! Next time I may just get the stewed beef with the baguette instead. The tv plays showing flea market scenes of Vietnam. Overall great experience! Kind and authentic vibe!
Also you may see an old woman selling produce as you exit the parking lot - if only we had more cash/smaller bills maybe we would’ve bought something from her 😭

We came here for lunch while TDY at Buckley. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the food was amazing. We were able to eat on our lunch break pretty quickly, and we tried too many things. The spring rolls and crab rangoons were amazing, and I love my sweet and sour beef. I highly recommend this place for lunch.
The Hu Tieu was maybe the best soup I’ve ever had in my life. Unbelievable. Only Vietnamese people in there when I went. I can’t wait to return!!!
1 star for the spicy Jalapeno zero stars for the sandwich. Other than that the chicken Bahn mi was the worst we have ever had. It seem they didn't care and just used old, dry leftover top portion of chicken and no sauce. The chicken was old and dry, very hard to chew. We couldn't even salvage any parts to eat because it was so bad. Into the trash where it belong. Not worth $7 in our opinion.
DE-LI-CIOUS. Absolutely spectacular rolls, both sushi and egg, beautifully made. Friendly staff and a quiet, comfortable atmosphere, can't wait to go back!
You can enter from behind of the restaurant, park in the same lots with Safeway. We ordered 1 Nam Vang noodle with soup and another without soup (the dried one). The foods are delicious, however the bowls are not that big although we ordered large size, and there is no quail eggs for the Nam Vang.
They only accept Cash, no credit card.
The kitchen looks a little bit low hygiene, hope they can keep it more clean.
I would come back definitely, want to support local restaurant.

GOOD PHNOM PENH-STYLE NOODLES SOUP
The outside of the restaurant is not too appealing same goes for the neighboring businesses. Once you are inside, this restaurant is a bit more inviting, and it serves delicious Phnom Penh noodle soup. You can order one with egg noodles or another with regular pho noodles. Both taste good.
Vietnamese iced coffee is a little bitter and not sweet at all. I had to ask for more condensed milk. The server was nice enough to add more for me.
This business accepts cash only, so be sure to prepare for it. I did not see any signs posted at the entrance until I had a conversation with an older sister who mentioned it on the phone, so I started looking for the posted sign and asked the waiter. She calmly told me, “Yes, cash only but don't worry, eat first.” I ate a little, then ran to Safeway to get some cash. There’s an ATM inside the store.
Anyway, I want to share my experience. So, you know what to expect. Good people, good food!

My friends and I had a great first experience here! We are all from Canto region in China and the food here taste very authentic! I loved the combination noodle soup I got -- very good size, variety of ingredients, and really good flavors! I'll definitely come back here and highly recommend this place!
IS INFLATION A MYTH? How did they whip up our food in like 3 minutes? Why did my huge portion of soup (pictured) that came with 2 slices of duck, 2 shrimps, meatballs, a drumstick, a bit of pork and my choice between different types of rice or egg noodles, only cost 11.50? My buddy got the bone marrow soup (not pictured) and it was only 5 bucks! Quality food perfect for struggling students in the area (lol), hearty and healthy. The soups taste like pho soup btw.
Whatever garlic sauce/pieces they use are are also packing with flavor. They put it in our soups and also in the popcorn chicken. Just one thing to note though, all the garlic deliciousness are in one spot on popcorn chicken plate. I recommend picking some up and eating in conjunction with a piece of popcorn chicken.
Will be back. Prices like this are like a relic of the past that we need to take advantage of! What a gem of a place.

Went with a group of close friends before departing Denver back home to San Diego. The service was okay (language barrier), the price of the bill was decent but I did really enjoy the food. So much that I added on another order during our meal. My girlfriend had to send hers back bc she didn't want her dish spicy. My other friends seemed to enjoy their Sushi. Would have given this restaurant 5 stars but the girls that were serving us would act like every request we made was beyond difficult, and would give an eye roll as well. Put your girls in check.
Been wanting to try Wicked Chopstix for awhile. Soup on point, full of fresh ingredients, noodle al dente. The large Special pho shareable for two. The mango shrimp salad was really fresh. And when we had a small issue, the manager made it right. Staff professional and attentive. If you're craving some pho or like to try one of the items off the extensive menu list, this is the spot.
For just under $14 I got this bowl. Their regular size is massive and a good price. Quality was great. Really enjoyed this particular combination.
I ordered online and immediately went to pick it up. Got there and the food was ready. Really quick, great for being on a rush but wanting a healthy and quick option.

Oh my goodness… if you love finding hidden gem/ mom and pop own or privately owned restaurant that are so good, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE! I came here with some friends after a retirement ceremony down town and we tried everything we wanted and it was amazing!!
First we got the Chinese donuts with a side of warm condensed milk, at least I think that’s what it was. The donuts were so delicate but had an amazing crunch and the side dip of condensed milk was just the cherry on top! Just a nice sweet starter. Then we got sat and pepper calamari and salt, salt and pepper shrimp and egg rolls as appetizers (I know it sounds like a lot but I was with a few people) the salt and pepper seasoning on these was absolutely amazing! The peppers were so pronounced but not in an overwhelming way and it complimented the salt on both the calamari and shrimp! It was really such a beautiful stunning and tasty appetizer! We were trying not to take to many at once! The egg rolls were also delicious, nice fresh flavors inside them and just really delicate! My friends ordered the pad Thai which was pretty good. My other fried ordered orange chicken a it was so fresh! It taste like they had just made the sauce five minutes ago from actual oranges! It was so pure! And I got the bone beef stew with rice noodles and oh my goodness it was so wonderful! If you like pho you will enjoy this soup! It is not pho but PLEASE, don’t limit yourself to just pho because there are so many more soups out there! It was so light and fresh and the meat was so tender in it!
The staff was so nice and tentative to us! They were also very welcoming! Ugh I want to go back already!!

Good to go dim sum. Not the best, but passable in this area. Prices are surprisingly middling, not the cheapest but not the most expensive. Selection is less than other places. Side sauce is excellent and almost worth a dedicated visit.
The restaurant is located inside a complex building and is upstairs to the left of the building. There are many parking lots, but they are filled quickly. The food was excellent, and delicious at a reasonable price. The owner is friendly and pleasant. I highly recommend it to anyone
07/22/23: If you want to try Vietnamese cuisine, this is your must-to-come place. The small cafe shop serves excellent food with a cozy and warm Vietnamese atmosphere. Customers often come through the back door located near the Subway side. If you come through the front door located in the MLK, please bang on the door to get the owner’s attention. I hope it helps
Parking lot is usually pretty full, but aside from that the food is fresh and good and reasonably priced. The place is kept clean and the service is pleasant.
Bun Nuoc Leo was delicious. It was a generous portion filled with pork, fish, & shrimp. Each bowl came with its own portion of veggies (bean sprouts, mint leaves, cabbage, and chives) which is awesome. The broth was a little salty, easily fixed with lime. Would definitely come back for this particular dish.
Solid local dim sum place. You can never go wrong with the siumai or the beef offal stew here.
7/2/2023 update:
I think the Pho has improved and the amount of fresh veggies they gave with my recent orders have been consistently abundant. The sandwiches are also pretty tasty with the addition of large amount fresh veggies and pickles daikon & carrots.
Their rice and bun still on the average side but the Tom yum chicken soup was delish.
2022
The beef broken rice plate was ok. The cucumber 🥒 was a little old and the tomato slices kinda soft. The pickled veggies were just carrots where I usually would like some daikon mixed it. The beef was in various sizes giving the impression it is the odds and ends thrown in.
The brown sugar milk tea was a tad on the sweet side but still nice. The boba was very soft with a bit of chew, I liked it.
The lychee tea I couldn’t figure out what is right about it. It is more of lychee milk which is kinda weird. Both drinks were filled 90% with lots of ice, even though I asked for less ice.
I think the Pho has improved and the amount of fresh veggies they gave with my recent orders have been consistently abundant. The sandwiches are also pretty tasty with the addition of large amount fresh veggies and pickles daikon & carrots.
Their rice and bun still on the average side but the Tom yum chicken soup was delish.

Love dinsam great food. Serve indoor dining.
Nices people in this place! ! They served you with smile and well spoken 👏, my first time here definitely will be back , I would give 7 Star if I could .
Best poke bowls in the city. I have been coming to this place since they opened and they never disappoint. The fish is always fresh, the toppings always ample and the cost is very reasonable for what you get. The staff is great too, very helpful and always willing to go the extra mile. I highly recommend this place to anyone who needs great poke at a great price.
Never again, I thought I would save some money and try this place since other Dim Sum places are around $4-$5 per plate with a wide selection, this one is around $3 and around 10 items. Better to spend a little more and feel great with what you ate, than spend less and feel horrible.
Very tasty and affordable dim sum in the heart of Little Saigon, the line is always long but worth it
Hole-in-the-wall offering delicious, authentic Vietnamese noodle soups. Friendly and efficient service. Highly recommend their beef stew soup (#4) and their #2, both with rice noodles. Broths were flavorful and savory. The beef and tendon were extremely tender. Their sliced pork and organ meats were also very tasty. Look forward to trying their sandwiches next time!
I finally went to this restaurant and very happy I did it. Their menu had some unique dishes. There were no photos on the menu, I looked at photos from google reviews to figure out what they may look like. Everything we had was good. I especially liked Wide egg noodle with chicken and turmeric soup. The broth of pho was also tasty. Their service was good. I will go back to eat different dishes.
Off street parking is available. Good for a whole family. The place looked big enough for group gatherings.

Only reviewing the boba smoothie which we saw advertised on the store front poster. Ordered taro smoothie with boba. The guy made it in front of us using fresh taro, not powder. Very tasty and creamy; you can still taste the taro (wasn't ground up too fine), just the way I like it. Boba also had nice gummy chewiness to them.
Picture menu of their dishes look enticing. Bless these hardworking folks who open 7 days a week to feed us.

Food was good. Service was ok. Then bam instincts kicked in telling me look down on your food. And there it was a baby fly inside my spring roll !!. They need to do a better job cleaning up there restaurant before THEY get shut down. First time here and the impression I received is that I will not return back.
Small selection of dim sum but the food was OK. Price was reasonable.
This place does have some of the best egg rolls and they're cheap. $.70 or $.90 depending on the wrap. Perfect to bring to a party. The other food was good too and well priced. It's cash only. There's an ATM at the market across the street.
The only negative is the parking. It's very limited and not much street parking.

The food was great and really authentic.

I loved their menu with pictures. It is simple, straightforward and easy to understand.

Pretty good pho. They offer a wide variety of menus. I wanted eat a bamboo duck noodle soup but it was out. I had chicken pho instead. The broth was thicker and a bit a salty side compared to other places. I thought the toppings for the noodle were a bit skimpy as well. The dish tasted good. No vegetarian / no vegan dishes ( may be you can ask to modify ingredients for some of the dishes). Parking lot available.
Went back to eat different dishes.
We had duck noodle soup, spring rolls ( not cooked ones), pho. They were very accommodating with our needs. Food was very good. They were busy and we had a hard time to get their attention though.

I'm a vegetarian and there is nothing veg on the menu, but I took a chance on asking for vegetarian bun (rice vermicelli bowl) with tofu and they made me a beautiful one. See picture below. Very fast and kind service. Definitely a neighborhood crowd.
This hole in the wall is the best place for dim sum, par none. Everything is freshly made daily in the morning. Get here early otherwise you'll be out of luck. They made their own sate & hot sauces.
I love the ambiance at this place. The food is very delicious especially the Obama Noodle and the Pho. The broth had a unique clear and crisp taste which i dont think anywhere else has. This will be my new to go restautsnt for Vietnamese food and Pho.
This restaurant is extraordinary fast in its service; the only problem is they got the order wrong, twice. LoL! I think it's the language barrier. The food is decent & worth coming back a 2nd time to try out other dishes on the menu. Note: if you want tripe (cow stomach) in your pho noodle, be sure to say "stripe" because that's how it's spelled in the menu & how thwy say it there. 😂
