I’ve known this place for years but for the first time went in and it was amazing! I wasn’t sure what to order and the hostess helped me and was very nice. I got the #2 and thai tea which was really good :) Nearby there was a father and son (who i think are regulars) and the staff were very nice and interactive with them it was really wholesome!

We found another great Pho spot. The owners were so nice. They were about to close but they stayed open for me and my family which shows a lot of value they have for their customers. Cindy and Andy were very welcoming and would definitely go there again. Their brith for the Pho was on point, their chicken wings were crispy and not too salty with real fried garlic and their rolls were also another favorite. Check this spot out, you will definitely not be disappointed.
