  • We ordered the red curry and the spring rolls.
    Disgusting.. The spring rolls were burnt. The veg in the curry was odd and for sure from a bag of frozen veg and the flavour and colour was completely off.
    They say the Pho Dau Bo on Fischer Hallman is better, but I won't be eating at this chain ever again. I was surprised I didn't get food poisoning.

  • Order: Red curry chicken, spring rolls

  • The service is horrible. They treat you like dirt. The food is ok and so is the price. I never crave it but the soups are ok. So is the Vermicelli.

  • Order: Vermicelli

  • Good lighting and clean, very fast service, good pho, okay portions (may not be fulfilling for some)

    You do go up to the counter and pay the bill on this fancy machine (enter tip amount or %), which caught me confused :)

  • Order: yellow curry chicken, black bean chicken, chicken/pork chop combo

  • Not like your average vietnamese place tries to be fine dining or anything. The atmosphere reminded me of a fast food restaurant, although we did have real chairs and silverware. The food came out really fast (literally 5 minutes) and tasted good. I think i got the small bowl and it was huge! I cannot imagine how big the XL bowl is!! Our waitress paid attention to our meals fairly attentively. I think their menu must have had 100 items in it so it took awhile to choose something, especially seeing it for the first time.

  • Order: beef noodle soup

  • This was a takeout order. While waiting, the waitress offer a nice large glass of tea, which was very nice. The order was prepared promptly, less than 10 minutes. The food was hot and overall quite fresh and tasty. However, the sprint rolls were a bit on the bland side. One was prepared with shrimp, and I was dismayed to discover the shrimp were cut in half lengthwise, but arranged so that you couldn't tell they were cut in half. This is a sign that they're cutting corners. The fried chicken was a little overdone. The pad thai was tasty. Both needed a a touch more heat and a bit more flavour. Portion size could have been a bit bigger too. Overall, not bad, but there are better places in town. Maybe this is the reason the restaurant wasn't so busy.

  • Order: sprint rollls (two types - Bi Cuon and Goi Cuon Tom), noodles with chicken (bun ga nuong), and chicken pad thai
