Excellent food and service. Don’t let the unassuming look of the place fool you. Very convenient and fast. We love eating here! Portions are very generous too.

Wow! What delicious, authentic Pho. The owner was very accommodating to my request to combine the tofu and vegetable versions. Hot. Fresh. Ample portion size. I wish I lived here so I could come back regularly. The BanMi sandwiches looked huge, too.Vegetarian options: Sandwich and pho can both be vegetarian

Awesome bhanmis and Vietnamese iced coffee. The bread is amazing, homemade. We usually eat there, nice casual atmosphere and very friendly owners.

The food is solid here. The French rolls are great and the bang mi sandwiches are a great lunch option. Try the lemongrass tofu (vegetarian option)

The pho is always the best here. I had chicken pho and a tofu sandwich. They have excellent service and always so friendly. Walked in the restaurant and was closed but they served me and my fiancé.
