Just barely ok, but not great with respect to authentic Vietnamese cuisine. Chefs are Mexican according to staff so don't expect true Vietnamese food. The lemon grass chicken was really not good, and the fried spring rolls were not served with wrapping lettuce in true Vietnamese style and the fish dipping sauce was not flavorfull. The experience was not that good when compared to other similar restaurants close by, so look around for alternatives as there are many. Their star rating is way too high for what you get. Must be from people who don't know good authentic Vietnamese food and quality.

Pho is delicious. The stir-fried noodles in the second photo had a weak taste and a strong garlic taste, which was a little strange

This is my third time at this place and me and my family loves it! The owner and his wife are so friendly and chatty. The pho bowls were rich in broth; very flavorful and authentic vietnamese. We’ll definitely be coming back here whenever we’re in this area

As a government official for the City of Downey I will never eat here again. I'll talk about food, service, and atmosphere. The soup base is good. The service is poor. They only greet you to have a seat, take your order, and when they deliver your food. Other then that they don't check to see if you need more napkins or if there is anything else you would like to order. I was sat down today the hostess placed one napkin on the table and then removed it. I figured they were going to provide a napkins when the food came out no big deal. When the food got placed on the table there was no Napkins. So I asked for napkins. They only provided one at least they could have given me two. It's soup what do you expect. To top it off I requested no onions in my soup well guess what I recieved onions. Instead of the guy taking my soup I just told him bring me a plate and I will take them off myself since I'm allergic. It's not like I can't take them off myself. So he brought me the plate. Then I ask for limes because they only gave me two slices. I was ready to pay and they tell you your total and you pay. Little did I know they charge $0.50, I think it's extremely petty they charge for condiments that would come with the pho soup. I hasn't didn't have much time to dispute the charge and question why because my lunch was over. I am letting it known here. Have them review your order before you pay. Never would I ever thought I would be charged for limes. If that was the case I should have told them to give me a discount for getting my order wrong. As far as atmosphere there's nothing special it's a space with tables and chairs with some background music.
