This lived up to the good reviews on Google. Nice decor, good service with a smile and attentive. Food is very fresh and well cooked. My curry could have been seasoned slightly more but still delicious. Will definitely come back!!

I got lemongrass beef vermicelli and I’m a fan, the beef was really flavorful and the sauce that came with the noddles was a great compliment and very unique. I’m not sure how to describe the taste but definitely different and worth a try. The service here was great and very friendly. The restaurant has a cool design if you’re looking for a date night or something with a nice atmosphere.

Staff were very kind and the food was nice and fresh! I love how tasty my food was, the flavors were amazing and the potion was the perfect size! Seafood is something easy to mess up and the shrimp was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I will definitely seek this place out next time I’m craving some Vietnamese food.

Excellent service and food was the best pho I’ve had in a long time. The Bamboo sprouts were fresh and it actually was made with beef broth. Fried tofu was great. The quality of the napkins and eating utensils were really good too. Enjoyed my experience.
