This pho restaurant is a great place to go for a quick and affordable meal. The pho is good, but not the best I've ever had. Their fresh spring rolls are so yummy! The staff is friendly and efficient. Overall, this is a good option for a casual meal. I will definitely be back!

Revisited this favorite spot after the "remodel" (sale), and it's okay... all they did was add some decor... don't get me wrong, the cherry blossom trees and ivy walls are nice, but the old furniture, desk, and meh bathroom walls and floor have not changed an iota... so lipstick on a pig. Divey vibes are acceptable when the food is good and cheap. Not so much when the food is not good and no longer cheap... and their servers need training on how to bring out Pho with more sprouts, and the utensils (spoons not just ladles) and flavoring (chili oil missing) in a "spicy" seafood pho. Need a real chef here if you're upping prices. There are much better options around, even if it's another 10m drive to get yummy vs. mediocre Pho. Legit Costco has better in microwave bowls. Dinner for 2 people, one app 2 Pho entrees with a $7 tip = $50... after all the corrections. p.s Cool robot, though it never came to our table.

visited on a whim a couple weeks ago on a Saturday, had a lovely time. their broth was delicious in their pho! unlike some other places, there was a distinct flavor difference between the slices of meat and tendon in the soup versus the broth, and it wasn't just 'salt' or 'fish sauce' different, there was something fundamental about it, I'm convinced it was homemade broth (as it should be). It was a delicious change from other times I had had less-satisfying pho. the service was very friendly and enthusiastic, and they had a cute little robot bringing some of the dishes around. I loved that their 'combo' deals included a tea or smoothie drink, and not just a soda! their bahn mi was huge, as were their pho portions. and it someone in your party is dying for fries, you can get those, too. we don't live nearby, otherwise we would be back more often to try more varieties of dishes on their menu.

Dined in couple of times, always ask their beef tender fully cooked because I breastfeed my baby. Ordered for pick up couple of times, they always send the beef non-cooked even I ask fully cooked. Never wanted to complain about it and didnt want any negative energy when we eat. But this time, I am very disappointed again, I mean it was so chewy and thick, plus non-cooked. It looks like its cooked, but its juicy inside. Whats the point we order ahead of time and pick it up. Probably not ordering, dining in again even we live across the street. Dont wanna waste my time, money, energy. Goodluck to the business

We will come back again. Stopped in when driving by. The food was delicious. The staff was really friendly. Service was quick. Appetizers were brought out by a really neat little robot with a cat face, kinda cool. I had a traditional pho soup. My girlfriend had the hibachi chicken. Our appetizer was the chicken spring rolls, freshly made.

Wonderful Meatball Pho! Perfect flavor. Those trying to eat healthy with low cal dishes can’t go wrong at Pho Lover. Really tasty egg rolls and fried pot stickers too. Our server couldn’t have been more helpful and pleasant. When’s the last time a server told you how much your business meant to them? Plus they have a talking robot serving some of the food and beverage items which by itself is worth the price of admission. Check out Pho Lover!

Stopped here for a quick bite. Had the bang me sandwich and the bread was delicious, the perfect amount of filling.

My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. Since we arrived, the attention was rude and slow. It took them a long time to take the order. When the food finally arrived, it was cold and tasteless, clearly prepared with little attention. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I was really disappointed with my experience. I ordered for delivery. The food was all packaged well, was hot and fresh. The pho broth was tasty. But the meat was SO fatty it was basically inedible. A major disappointment
