Off the beaten path. Fun and reasonably priced Vietnamese food. Pho or have a hot pot and pick your fixings. It was pretty quiet when I was there.

Choose your broth, then go to fridge and pick dumplings, proteins, veggies, noodles, eggs. They bring steaming bowl of, for us, kimchi broth, set on hot plate, and you add your ingredients. It was delicious!

Doesn't look like much when you drive by, but this place is an awesome low-key gem. Always fresh, friendly staff and very healthy. It's rare for a restaurant to constantly have delicious fresh herbs, but hot pot always does . 5 starts. Highly recommend.

This was simpy excellent! I ordered a variant of anbitme on the menu, Pho Tai Chin. Excellent! This was super authentic and the place was spotless. So great!

This place used to be my secret lunch spot but no more. I recently invited two of my girl friends there with our kids. We were a group of three mommies and 5 kids. The wife of the owner was not happy to see us there. She started telling us about their insurance issues with kids and that we have to monitor our kids. She was just plain rude and didn't seem to want our business. This is definitely not a kids friendly restaurant. BTW, it was not the hot pot side but on the pho side.

OMG , wow ! This was an amazing experience. You start off with choosing your broth and then going to see what you would like to add to it . The broth cooks in this big pot and you add the toppings of your choice and wait for it to cook . While waiting I enjoyed an amazing appetizer. The Tom Yum special broth was so flavorful , i've never had anything like it . This is definitely 5/5, the food is amazing , staff super nice , and the environment is very calm and pleasing .

I will be the first to say how that I love Vietnamese cuisine but this has to be some of the worst food I have ever had the displeasure of ingesting. I will never return this place. An extreme waste of money! I also didn't appreciate that the woman who may have been the owner tried to upsell us when I asked for Pho and my husband asked for Hotpot. Oh well hopefully the next place will not leave me disappointed and still hungry

I was pretty excited to see a spot to get pho and bun salad not too far from home. The restaurant itself is in a quiet shopping center and conveniently located next door to an Asian market! My mom and I decided to eat before we try to shop. This place has two sides, one for pho & another for the hot pot. We'll have to come back to try the hot pot. Service was good, but I recommend ordering in English if your Vietnamese isn't spot on. I ordered a Bun Tom (shrimp vermicelli salad) and was brought a Pho Tom. Our server didn't seem to have a problem fixing the order, but I still felt bad. The pho was strong on the lemon grass and isn't served with as many vegetables or toppings as we are used to from other similar pho restaurants. It did come out hot and had plenty of noodles and broth. Price is right for the size of bowl. My bun salad seemed small for the price ($13) but ended up being the perfect serving size for lunch. The vinegar dressing was as strong as I'm used to here as well but not bad. I'd have to say it satisfied our craving, but could use a little "something" that was missing. I will say the shrimp tempura was crispy and tasty!

Absolutely the best restaurant I've ever been to. Fun to go with friends because you can physically pick out the food right in front of you. Not to mention the broth is to die for. Especially the chicken broth because it is so perfectly seasoned. It is very well priced and very affordable!!! Please go here! I go here with my two best friends at least once a week!

The owner lady is very rude. We did a big order and asked for my basil, she gave us a bad look and brought us only one stem, I said thank you and she just walked away. I said thank you again and she said OK! We were the only people in the empty restaurant, you would assume she would be happy were there. Never again will go or recommend.
They have soup & other stuff. It was a new experience for me. U pick ur broth, choose the meats & other add-ins. They charge per plate of add-ins. In addition to ur bowl. U throw in all the add in to ur broth that cooks at the table. When it's done, u get to eat. It's different but fun. We were the only ones there.

Has some of the best Pho in the area also the vermicelli is fantastic. Wonderful flavors and everything is cooked to perfection they packaged our to go order perfectly so the noodles didn't get mushy. The restaurant is beautiful and smelled amazing and the owner are very friendly.

A little gem in Lake Park. Enjoyed the Hue noodle pho which had savory flavor. Not all Vietnamese restaurants offer that. Clean place and friendly servers. Would return if in the area.
