Incredible and authentic small business complete with the background sound of Vietnamese news channel. Food quality is great, time to serve is a bit longer as it was staffed by literally 2 people and all food was made fresh to order. However they are incredibly kind, clearly are loved by the community, and simply make great food.Come here for food made with love, but don’t expect this to be a fast food restaurant or a fancy or romantic place.

TL;DR: Go elsewhere.Where do I begin...The place doesn't look great. But I like my pho places no frills, so that was no issue. We were greeted nicely and sat down. It was around 6 pm and nearly empty. Ordered an iced coffee and two lemonades, plus tofu rolls and our mains (a pho and two Bun dishes).They're low on lemons. Ok, fine, change lemonades to another iced coffee and a bubble tea. My hubby gets his iced coffee. And we got waters. Onward...Tofu rolls come out. The homemade peanut sauce that accompanied this dish was delicious.Then we waited. And waited. And a family that is obviously a regular customer comes in. They're greeted with hugs, started ordering, and food started flying out for them. We were still waiting. Still no second iced coffee or bubble tea.After about 30 minutes, our food shows up. Well, the Bun dishes do. The lady owner, who put sauce bottles on the table of the family, gives me a small bowl with a few squirts each of hoisin and Sriracha. When I asked for the bottles, she points to the bowl and says, "I gave you some."Say what?!The Bun dishes that my hubby and son ordered were basically iceberg salads topped with a small portion of noodles and meat. Both of them left hungry.My pho? 3 small slices of brisket, 3 smaller slices of eye round, and not enough noodles. The broth was bland and somehow became a flavor vacuum as I tried to save it by adding hoisin and chili garlic paste (also homemade and really good). But it was beyond help.How this place is still in business is baffling. A waste of money, time, and energy that could have been better spent at BK.And no, my kid never got his bubble tea, and my iced coffee got handed to me unceremoniously as I was reluctantly paying the bill.

I don't deviate from the pho TaiToday I had seafood and chicken pho and it was so delicious! I'm never sure about squid, but it was tender and incredibly delicious! Came with what I assume is house made Sriracha (if you like spicy food, highly recommended this yummy sauce). Everyone was very nice.Bathrooms are there for customers as well as on premise parking :)

I absolutely love this place. The 2 people running the restaurant are so nice and welcoming. Despite all of the reviews saying otherwise, our food came out super fast. It was a huge bowl and super flavorful. We both got the #1 Pho. I will be coming here often!

My family and I live in maine and visit our friends in Cranston. This is a must go to. From the time we leave maine we are already thinking about what we want to order. Everytime we come here same consistent delicious meal that is clearly 100% fresh Ingredients. We always order an additional meal to take home just to savor it alittle longer. Great owners that care about serving you the best authentic Vietnamese food. Can't wait to come back again.
Food is great! We got soup, rice dish and a couple of appetizers, everything was great!Service is very friendly but slow!Place itself is nothing to write home about

Mom and pops owned restaurant. Full Disclaimer if you decide to eat here please bring patience with you, this restaurant is ran by just 2 people.Started my evening with a delicious freshly squeezed lemonade. Fresh , and very sweet.Had also the eggrolls and nime chow but they call it something completely different. It was great and fresh. Then to the star of the show the beef pho. Lets just say it was worth the wait. The broth is very flavorful you don’t even need to add anything to it (unless you want to make it spicy). 100% worth the wait. But keep in mind the service is slow but the food is fresh!

Little hole in the wall of a restaurant. The dining area smelled of cigarettes and was very cold, but that aside was a great meal. Pho was delicious with the best broth. They remembered no cilantro. And came quick!
