Food is delicious! It’s always a hit when I visit. The short ribs are juicy and flavorful , I always add and egg roll . They offer a soup to sip when you dine in . Lime infused water . And the price is unbeatable!

First time customer, and last time customer. This is some of the worst Food I've ever been served, I had the pork vermicelli bowl and some spring rolls, both were very very bad. The spring rolls smelled as if the shrimp had turned, I gagged when I brought it up to my face. Inedible and disgusting. The pork vermicelli Bowl was bizarre and a little off-putting, the pork itself looked as if they took bacon and dyed it orange. The pork was pretty flavorless but the cucumber tasted a bit old and slightly rancid/ decayed. I didn't get any more than a couple bites into it when my stomach flipped. The people working there were super polite and the vibe was pretty mellow. Will not be back.

They have the best pho and banh mi in all of Seattle. I've been to many and this is by far my favorite place. The outside of the restaurant doesn't look the greatest but inside it's large and beautiful. I highly recommend you check this place out. Please note: If you're coming in you will need to get up and go to the front to pay. They don't bring you're check to you so don't just sit there and wait :)

Yummmm!! We got the small beef pho with filet mignon and meatballs. Super flavorful soup, and the noodles were great quality!! They had a good chewy texture, not limp or overcooked. I asked for less noodle and more soup, which was perfect for me. Environment feels clean and classy! They also have chin su for hot sauce, and labubus for sale!! They also have happy hour from 2-5pm, where you can get 25% off your meal.

Ok I found my new phone spot!! the Pho is so so good. I have been looking for a place with solid pho for a while now and even though there is a wealth of choice in this area, the pho is a cut above the rest. It had such succulent chicken! I’ve literally never it so well done like that before. The noodles were great. The broth was so so rich and the service is outstanding. My husband had the bun bo hue and we could not get enough of that deeply umamiladen broth. The only thing that threw us for a loop was the chicken wings which were battered and fried? That was unnecessary and was hoping for a fish caramel sauce sort of preparation but outside of that wow we just kept raving about it as we were eating it. I can’t believe I haven’t mentioned it yet, but the Vietnamese iced coffee was next
