Tonight I only had the seafood pho soup.

We went in the middle of the day on a Friday and the restaurant and the street were pretty quiet. The outdoor seating was nice and shaded and the service was fast.

Not sure what they do different in the back, this is the best pho I have ever tried. Keep trying new places here and there to confirm that this one is the best. The broth is magic, no need to add Sriracha or the plum sauce. Worth the drive no matter where u come from.

All the way from Canada, we found this little gem! We had a warm welcome . The food is excellent, and the portions are generous. All prepared with high quality and fresh ingredients. A must try.

Just average. Nothing stood out. Papaya salad was very bland and not spicy like it should be. Steamed potstickers did not have a great taste, and the pho is ok. I like the thin rare beef which they do not have, and the Tai was not as good.

Best Vietnamese around!! The fried spring rolls are delicious. The pho broth is the best. Their fried rice is the best fried rice I’ve ever had in my life often times I get the vermicelli with lemon grass, chicken or pork. You really can’t go wrong here. The food is very well done

One of my fav Pho places in the area. The food is always good. The service is good. I always like to sit outside if the weather is nice.

Pablo Buendia
Pho was good, in my opinion really good taste, and I eat Pho all the time. I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because they do not have Siracha bottles, they repackage the Siracha into little cups with little spoons and it is a pain to use it that way. The restaurant is very nice looking inside, I sat outside in their very nice outdoor tables. The location and atmosphere are great.

First time in the city and at the restaurant. It was nice to have some hot soup on this really cold day. Having driven through a lot of cities and states where Vietnamese food was not available it was very refreshing to see something I’m so used to in Toronto. Food was good not great and prices in USD were a bit more expensive than what I’m used to. However, it was great to experience the amount of diversity that is in DC, especially when it comes to food.

Food was delicious and service was very friendly. The lemongrass tofu vermicelli was delicious and full of flavor. The staff accommodated my vegetarian dietary needs by swapping fish sauce out for a delicious soy sauce based sauce. Will be coming back here!
