decent but not life changing

Yummy! But the flavours had diminishing returns after the first few bites.

Ordered the classic pho and Tom yum soup, with the tofu fresh rolls on the side. The rice paper on the rolls were soaked for far too long, and the peanut sauce was kind of disappointing.

Updated from previous review on 2026-07-12

Pros: Big portions, Nice imported tea from Vietnam

Cons: Peanut sauce was overly sweet, Disappointing rice noodles-to-tofu/veggies ratio

Good food, long wait times

We had the pho and vermicelli with tofu. We both preferred the vermicelli, as the pho broth wasn't as flavorful as we would have liked - but that's just our taste.
The staff was super friendly, however, we waited a long time for one of our dishes, while the other arrived with acceptable wait time. We had to choose between waiting and eating the first meal almost cold and one of us being almost being done when the other one's food arrived.

That said, this might have been a one-time thing and mistakes happen. We still enjoyed our food:)

Pros: Great selection, Amazing peanut sauce, Friendly staff

Cons: Food didn't arrive at the same time for table, Long wait times

Very Good Food

I liked the many vegan options and had a difficult time deciding. I liked the tofu a lot, but didn’t really like the eggplant in the banh mi or the fresh rolls.

Pros: Good number of vegan options

Cons: Didn’t really like the eggplant

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're so glad you enjoyed our tofu and vegan selection.

We appreciate your feedback on the eggplant. We like to rotate fresh seasonal vegetables to keep our dishes as fresh as possible, but we'll definitely keep your comments in mind. Hope to see you again soon! 🌱🍜

I absolutely love the Vermicelli in Spicy Lemongrass Soup #52 ! As a vegetarian, finding dishes with such bold, layered flavors can be a rare treat, and this one truly hits the spot. It reminds me a lot of Vegetarian Hue Beef Noodle Soup from Vietnam, with its deeply savory broth and delicate balance of spices, must try! 👍🏻

Terrible

The pictures on the menu are extremely misleading showing lots of vegetables, crispy tofu and a delicious amount of sauce. The actual meal, comes with 5 pieces of vegetables, spongy soggy tofu and barely any sauce. On the rice dish there wasn’t enough sauce for the portion of rice they give you. In the end, it’s cost us $145 and we didn’t finish one plate of the 4 mains we ordered. The only thing we enjoyed were the summer roll appetizers. We would not go back again

I opted for their vegan and gluten-free Pho, a dish that I had been eagerly anticipating. Each spoonful was a revelation - the broth was rich and flavorful, brimming with aromatic spices that danced on my palate. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the array of fresh vegetables added a delightful crunch and freshness to the dish.
