Chicken pho

Been coming here for years and after today I won't be back! Ordered chicken pho with extra green onions. Usually it is full of veggies, onions etc...Brings it out and has hardly any green onion in it, no veggies, broccoli or regular onion. I told him I asked for extra and I don't mind paying, he leaves comes back and says they told him NO because they are running low. Even when I offered to pay extra! So you're gonna charge me $20 for chicken broth, noodles and 8 single pieces of green onions?! They could have at least offered a different veggie to bulk up the pho since they're running low and that's not my fault.... Pathetic! If I had know you were rationing green onion or broccoli(veggies) I wouldn't have come. Aside from that bs the broth is really good and the chili oil as well. If I ever give it a second chance I'll call ahead to make sure they have what the soup comes with.

Bun Dac Biet

Honestly the best thing I've ever had and their combination pho comes second everything here is so good and refreshing omg all their teas and drinks SLAP this is THE best place I've ever been too and I hope they'll be able to expand and get bigger while still upholding that amazing food quality I fell in love with. When you dine inside you treated with complimentary water and a very quick waitress that checks on you regularly. All the food comes out FRESH and quickly who made my dish but I thank you it really taste like it was made from the heart Please keep it up the food here is absolutely amazing 100/10 stars

Beef pho
Lorna R.

Cute little place for great food. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was delicious and so was the boba tea.

Grilled pork and spring roll bun noodle bowl.
Mike W.

Tried this per a friend's recommendation and was not disappointed. Far better than any Vietnamese food we have in Gainesville, clean and pleasant restaurant (albeit small), and fast service. The bun (noodle dish, not like a bread bun) I had with grilled pork and a fried spring roll was through and through quite good--the pork was flavorful and not too fatty, the spring roll nice and crisp, the noodles were not soggy, and the salad part of it also fresh. No complaints at all and again, better than any I've had in Gainesville--only issue might be the menu is a little limited to mostly pho and bun, not a whole lot of different dishes. Still I highly recommend them.

Crab Rangoon and Chicken Pot Stickers
John M.

Stopped in for a quick bite and a break from driving. We ordered each of the appetizers: shrimp spring rolls, crab Rangoon, chicken pot stickers, and Cha Gio (Vietnamese fried egg roll). Each were quite delicious. Proved just enough for the two of us as a meal. Then back on the road.

Combination Pho
Lisa O.

Took my husband for his first Pho experience. We enjoyed it very much. He had beef. I had combo with chicken, shrimp and wontons. Service was adequate. We will go back. Plaza isn't fancy but go on in.

I love everything about pho me and my gf come here at least once a week we absolutely love it ! service is great , food is amazing, timing is great very comforting place and food

Boba
Jean G.

Very tasty Vietnamese food. Get the pho with wonton and pork and don't forget the Crab Rangoons. Bother milk tea and fruit teas were spot on. The service was very quick and friendly. The ambiance is very cute and has plenty of parking.

I broke my yelp hiatus just to post about this meal. This is the best grilled pork I've ever had,…read moreand as you can tell from the photo, the portion size is WELL worth the $15. Oh my god, I took a single bite and didn't speak to my friend for 15 minutes as I continued munching it down. It was amazing. The vermicelli comes underneath this mound of pork holy grail, and while I'm used to having my vermicelli with these bowls cold and a bit thinner, and there being significantly more noodles than meat ratio, I'm thrilled to say that not this bowl - this bowl was 60% pork, 30% noodle, and 10% veggie. I'm taking every bite with 2-3 pieces of pork. I'm soaking up the juices with the noodles. I'm crunching on a few cucumbers to balance it out. I'm savoring every piece. Absolutely wonderful. I'm so excited to go back and try every one of their dishes. The restaurant itself is small, located inside of a shared mini-food court place with a pasta-to-go restaurant and a boba tea shop, and has a really cute sitting area. There is a nice older lady who works the front/takes orders/delivers the food. Well worth trying to fight to find university parking just to eat here.

This is a small location in a courtyard in college town, and it was amazing. I had Summer rolls,…read morevermicelli bowl with pork and egg roll. Flavors were perfect and a huge portion for a decent price. Everyone working there was very polite and friendly.

We live…read morein The Villages, unfortunately there just aren't any authentic ethnic restaurants in The Villages. There are wanna be Chinese restaurants in The Villages but the food is Chinese-American and I would not even eat there or recommend them. Yummy House in Ocala was actually referred to us by the owner of Square 1 Burgers in The Villages, another fantastic restaurant but that's another review. Yummy House offers a variety of authentic Chinese dishes, and they also offer Dim Sum on weekends. The first time my spouse and I went there, we couldn't believe the choices. We used to always drive to Peter's Kitchen in Orlando but it was over an hour to drive there for us. Ocala was much closer and to be quite honest just as good as the restaurant in Orlando. Every dish I've ordered there has been out of this world. Which makes it so hard for me to choose my entrée. I do have a favorite server at Yummy House. His name is Ming. So, when I dine at Yummy House, I always ask to be seated at Ming's area. I also golf in Ocala which friends, about 8 to 12 of us. After golf, we normally have lunch together too. So, Yummy House is at the top of the list for us. When we do, I call the restaurant ahead to make a reservation and ask them to assign Ming to us. Ming always provides excellent service and especially with me being Asian, he kind of knows what type of dish I like and when I order a dish he will normally make suggestions to add to the dish or cook a certain way that knows I would like. He also makes suggestions to each person in our group and sometimes he'll tell them to try a dish that he's sure they've never had before. He tries to take them out of their comfort zone. They've always been happy with his suggestion. The restaurant itself reminds me of some of the Chinese restaurants I've been to that is not a fast-food restaurant. Very authentic inside. They also offer a beer called Lucky Buddha. I think everyone likes to order the beef because the bottle is in the shape of Buddha. Yesterday, we met friends at Yummy House who are visiting from Boston. Unfortunately, Ming was off and another server took care of us. He was a good server but just not like Ming who really goes out of his way to talk to you, joke and laugh. However, he was not a bad server but he was just there to provide server and do his job. So, I cannot fault him for that. So overall the entire experience yesterday was good. I highly recommend Yummy House if you are near the Ocala area and are craving for authentic Chinese food.

It's in a really nondescript location, tucked away in an old gas station store. The store was a combination of hot food and some pantry staples like gochugaru and ramen. I ordered the Hot Bob, which was the spicy pork shoulder over rice. It was so delicious. We shared a kimchi pancake - it was a really sizable pancake but I wish it had a bit more flavor.

This is located inside a gas station, so when you enter it looks like a regular convenience/gas station, but then you see the menu with all the dishes they offer. They had so many delicious items on the menu, but I only went with the Japchae. I didn't wait long, it took about 15 minutes and while I was there, I got to look around and noticed all the Korean products around the store. Once I got my food, I sat at the tables they have in a corner and got quite a bit of food. It's a good serving. After trying the Japchae, I understand now why this spot is so highly rated. The Japchae was well seasoned came with a lot of delicious veggies and a side of rice. If this spot was close by I would eat there on a weekly basis! Really great spot to check out when in Ocala.

The toppings were fresh and we really enjoyed our meal here!

The restaurant is in a strip mall surrounded by two Indian eateries and an Indian grocery store…read more There is lots of parking. It's a decent size and it was clean and most of its customers on a Sunday at lunchtime were Asian. Our servers were two young men and they were very attentive. We had the Vietnamese crepes (our favorites) that came with two smaller ones (instead of a large). The crepes were a bit thin and skimpy on the shrimp (lots of bean sprouts and maybe one shrimp cut in half in each crepe). My husband had beef pho, wish he said was tasty but lacking a decent amount of beef and tendon. I had the bun cha (rice vermicelli) with pork and fried spring rolls. The rolls were not tasty. And my dish had two small slices of pork and so many noodles I brought home a container of noodles and veggies (after scarfing down my two pieces of meat). Being from South Florida, and having travelled to Vietnam last spring, we have eaten lots of Vietnamese food. While the food was not bad, it could have been better by starting with heartier portions for the price. Lunch for 2 was about $50 including tax and tip. P.S. The fish tank was clean and very engaging!

My wife and I were in town for a long weekend of Gator sports. As we packed up our things Sunday…read moreearly afternoon we wanted to grab something quick before we headed home. We went to Vietnam a couple years ago and now anytime she has a chance to get Banh Mi she does. We'd been here before but I think they recently added the Korean sticks to the menu. I always get a #1 without cilantro or mayo. They haven't messed it up yet. Pate is not really an American thing but it's a good combination. There's a dark sauce they put on the sandwich too which is really good. There's are freshly sliced jalapeños so take note if you don't like spicy. They are very thinly sliced so it's not overwhelming but there's a little kick. My wife got a sandwich but also tried one of the Korean sticks. She got the stick without a hotdog. It was basically a block of cheese coated in diced potatoes, kind of like frozen breakfast potatoes you can get at the grocery store. They deep fry it so the cheese is completely melted. I think she's glad she tried it, but I don't think she was impressed. We'll just stick to Banh Mi next time.

It took a while for anyone to greet me to take my order but after I ordered it did come relatively quickly. Not as fast as other banh mi places though. The banh mi itself was probably the worst one I have ever had. The bread tasted refrigerated and was very chewy. It actually took a lot of effort for me to bite and chew it. Definitely not good eats. Ambiance was nice with plenty of seating.
