Sign in to reviewFirst time in this place today. I had just dropped my vehicle off at the mechanic down the block, and was looking for a place to have lunch. I first walked into the Persian? restaurant two doors down, but their menu seemed a little expensive so I came here, where the lunch prices were clearly $3-4 less. A woman who seemed like she could be the owner recommended a dish to me that was delicious! It was a Vietnamese dish. I told her I liked spicy, and while it wasn't super-spicy, I quite enjoyed the flavor of it. It was a large bowl of vermicelli noodles, chicken, and fresh veggies. Clean restroom, clean restaurant, kind people, good food, and reasonable prices. My bill came to less than $17 for my meal, which included $2 for a can of Coke. I would DEFINITELY eat here again.
Amazing! The food was so fresh, flavorful, and ready quickly! I've been here twice and it was even better the second time! Definitely will be coming back. The atmosphere is pretty and quiet. I'm craving more food from here already and compared to other asian restaurants, these prices are great!!
Fast service, tidy sweet restaurant and good food. I had a vegan banh mi with tofu and it’s was delightful. Portion is maybe a little light (price is fair) so if you’re hungry get a side. Make sure to specify your dietary restrictions.
I was on my way home from work and was craving spring rolls. I looked at this place and wanted to try it out since there was very good comments. They were not lying. The staff is very nice, food was so yummy 😋 and very affordable with a large meal portion. Thai tea was delicious w/ tapioca 😍
Little mom and pop shop/family owned and run with great sandwiches and pho and great prices! Literally $5.75 for an incredible sandwich at the time of the post. Most Pho bowls are $11. They have a kids pho (dine in only) for $5! A great deal!!
