All good! Another hometown staple, I eat here all the time with the family. Excellent service, clean and so so parking (depends what time you come). If you come during lunch it does get busy but not out the door busy, you'll be able to be seated. Dinner is no problem. Food is delicious! Phở, vermicelli, rice plates, the rare beef noodle soup and of course the spring rolls are all good! Then the iced coffee and thai tea, so good and so strong! Prices are great and again service is excellent. You know when your iced water is always topped off!
A very cute and well kept Vietnamese restaurant. The Pho broth is super. Sized just right and most Pho offering below $10.00. Did not try the rice bowls nor the appetizer, but they looked delicious, served at other tables. Friendly and efficient staff. I would go there again, just for the pho.
I love this place lots! I usually crave & order the Chicken Curry Stew but they have sooo many delicious options. The staff is always super friendly and sweet. Ambiance of the restaurant is warmly welcoming. It’s a great place!!
Typical pho place, with good food. Only trouble is that my order wasn't actually ready for another 10 minutes after I arrived to pick it up. Other than that hiccup, staff was friendly, spring rolls were fresh, and the broth was good. The only thing is that it seems they recently changed the name of the business to Dope Pho.
I ordered their vegetarian pho for dinner. When picking up, the restaurant had a really nice, dim-lit relaxed vibe. I am a vegetarian, so for those curious, their veggie pho actually comes with veggie broth. Great packaging with generous amounts of basil (my fav.) and it was absolutely delicious.
