I came here with a friend, excited to get some spring rolls (fried and fresh), and I also decided…read moreto get Pho, which doesn't happen but once in a blue moon since I'm not a big fan of eating pasta or noodles much.
The restaurant wasn't busy at all, except for one of the staff members, who was eating and taking a break, and later a couple walked in to eat. The staff was quiet, yet friendly enough, and they were prompt to serve us.
The fried spring rolls were good, as were the fresh spring rolls, but they weren't anything spectacular. I certainly wouldn't send them away if I was offered them. I got the spicy beef pho, and I was painfully disappointed, as there was absolutely no flavor to this whatsoever, though it was a hearty bowl. My friend got a chicken pho and seemed to enjoy it, but when she tried mine, she agreed that it was extremely bland, from the broth to the meat. I noticed that it looked like they used a mixture of chicken and beef, rather than just beef as well, unless I was unaware that beef can turn white in color when cooked. I have trained in culinary school though, so I'm pretty sure I can tell chicken from beef.
Overall, while some things were good, it is hard for me to rate this as anything but average since the things I liked were average, while the Pho was not something I enjoyed at all. It was disappointing, but still not horrible, and perhaps my dish was just an off dish for them.
