I had the Oxtail pho, it was very good this is the first pho restaurant for me to offer beef tendon and it was a game changer. The pho broth was aromatic with all the pho spices. I also ordered the shrimp spring rolls and papaya salad to go. The shrimp spring rolls were ok they were a bit small and im not really a fan of the peanut sauce (I should have got chili oil) the papaya salad was in my option not good. I did notice when I ordered it said it was in a vinaigrette and I was expecting a traditional papaya salad with palm sugar, fish sauce, and chili's (it has not spice at all)

Never never go to this place I was a regular costumer and order two soups my moms one had a hair a I immediately let the waitress know. Instead of having a good attitude the owner told me that I have to pay it because we already consume it WE BARELY STARTED AETING this is extremely disappointing not only I got nauseas loooking at my mom piling her hair out of her mouth but them telling me I need to pay the plate this is disgusting never coming back and I’ll recommend you never doing it too

Flies flying all over the place, tendons in the pho smelled bad & extremely chewy. Also, the way they serve the peanut sauce for the spring roll... seriously?

First time here and loved it. I had the veggie egg rolls appetizer to start...crunchy and delicious. For my main course I had the veggie Banh Mi sandwich, which was loaded with veggies and tofu. Tasty as well... especially with the hot sauce! Plenty of seating inside but no outdoor seating. Great location in the Walmart shopping center too.

Entering the restaurant at first glance it’s nice and quaint. The server was fast to take our order and to never come back to the table after bringing out our appetizers and entrees. I enjoyed my Bun Bo Hue Tai Duoi Bo expect the oxtail we’re still under cooked and rubbery along with the very chewy tripe. My husband had the Pho Tai Bo Viên which was okay, but could have been better flavor wise in the broth. Our appetizer were great and definitely disappoint , the hot tea was also nice. When exiting we notice how disgusting and sticky the floors in spots it’s so thick it’s black. Definitely will question if we will come back.
