    Beef Pho Fresh Noodle Soup
    Christine N.

    Okay, so I was ready not to like this spot especially considering how awful parking is here. As well, I generally notice that Vietnamese spots that only do English menus aren't that great. However, I was so pleasantly surprised and impressed by their pho. The broth was super clear and tasted just like mom's home cooked pho. The meats were tender and veggies fresh. I also ordered their mango lilikoi drink, which was sweet and refreshing. I wasn't particularly a fan of the order then seat yourself to be served after style, but the servers and cashier were friendly and the food was good which mattered most. The place is clean though a little on the small side but there's outdoor seating too.

    Really good Food great customer service. I love this place already. First impressions is always the best. Open late and keeps the food fresh.

    First it might be best to walk, take light rail or ride share app to get there due to difficult parking. I was very fortunate to find a spot right in front. You order at the counter then take a seat and the friendly staff brings the food to you. I ordered vegetable pho and ca phê sửa da which was very good and of generous size. The pho broth lacked richness and possibly salt but the vegetables were fresh so overall I enjoyed it and give it 4 stars. 5 stars for the iced Vietnamese coffee. The decor is nice and the environment is clean and tidy. This restaurant is locally owned.

    Came here after a night of drinking with friends and it definitely hit the spot! They are open late and food came out very quickly! The cashier was warm and friendly. Since this place is near a university, it was open late and quite popular. The broth was decent and they even accommodated extra noodles for my husband. It is a little on the pricey end but that is to be expected.

    The pho and shrimp spring rolls are extremely good, definitely my favorite place to get Pho. The only thing I don't like abt this area (and it isn't their fault) is the parking but expect it to be like that anywhere near Mill Ave. I do really enjoy this spot tho! The ambiance is chill and the service is very good

    Went to this cute place while visiting my daughter at ASU. Convenient location with lots of parking in the back. We ordered the vegetable pho and boy was it good. Vegetables came on the side with a spoon chopsticks and plenty of napkins. The broth was a perfect combination of savory and salty. Everything was fresh. The decor was modern with a huge TV on the wall showing still shots of exotic locations around the world. There was table side service and our plates were cleared promptly. When in the mood for pho don't pass this place up.

    Parking can be difficult here. We parked on the street with metered parking. Food itself was okay, nothing extraordinary in my opinion. Compared to other pho establishments I thought the broth was alright, somewhat sweet. Will say it's next to ASU and open late so that's great.

    Fresh Alley Vermicelli Noodle with Korean BBQ ribs on the bottom, Spring Rolls up top and Ube to the right of them
    Colton G.

    My lovely girlfriend and I decided to DoorDash some dinner last week on 10.30.25 and I told her to browse through my saved stores on it and let her pick someplace out. This was what she wound up picking and I'm glad she did! I've been here before, once with a buddy of mine, and though I can't say much about the inside of the place as I don't remember too much about it, it was a nice serviceable, chill little spot in downtown Tempe and I'm sure it's a great spot for college students to go and lounge/eat at. The DoorDash we got consisted of Pho fresh noodle soup for my girlfriend with a side of the beef spring rolls, and vermicelli noodles with Korean BBQ ribs for me with a side of egg rolls and an ube drink. The ube drink was absolutely delicious and was probably my favorite part of the meal, with the Korean BBQ ribs being my second favorite part. I believe in ube supremacy, that shit is a holy elixir. The taste of the Korean barbecue wings was exquisite as well, and the noodles were pretty solid but nothing too crazy. I will say it gave me 0 stomach issues after eating so that is an absolute win in my book. My girlfriend loved the fresh noodle soup, and the egg rolls were delicious and their sweet and sour sauce was amazingly tasty! I put my noodles in a bowl with some of her broth and it definitely elevated them in terms of taste, their broth is served like a warm hug from a loved one, it is very refreshing and smooth. Overall we like this place and we will more than likely DoorDash it again in the future or maybe we will stop in next time we're in Tempe, we'll see. Solid spot that I'd recommend to anyone living nearby or any ASU student

    Pho shrimp
    Sarah S.

    I ordered the food by DoorDash, and it was very tasty. I got the shrimp fresh rolls, shrimp pho, and starry lychee. The fresh rolls were ok but not the best I've had. They were smaller than usual and difficult to chew, but the peanut sauce was nicely flavored and thin enough to dip or pour. I liked the zingy flavor of the peanut sauce. The pho was a nice generous portion with lots of extra sauces that i requested. The shrimp was plentiful and fresh, but some of the salad ingredients could have been more fresh. The starry lychee was delicious!

    It's busy after 8pm because all other Pho restaurants close and it is open until midnight. The Pho is good with good size portions. They have small sides though. If you order a side of vegetables it's not worth it. Good place to eat in or take out. Lots of other items on there menu too. Parking can be a problem there. Next to ASU so if you're walking it's a great location.

    Overpriced for what you get. Portions are small, flavor's mid, and there are way better (and cheaper) Viet spots just down the street.

The A/C worked well enough despite the dining area filling up with hungry customers. Seating is laid-back, and ready for a group of four or those willing to share a table. Cordial, English-speaking staff are efficiently working and made sure we were well hydrated during a particularly hot weekend. The food was not as we expected. I had the rice plate and my husband ordered pho. My rice plate was filled with enough rice for all the protein that topped it. My favorites had to be the pork chop and the egg & meat loaf. The pho was fragrant - as it should be - but the flavor of the broth was not developed enough. It tasted like salted water, and the beef flavor only came from the slices they put in the bowl. Maybe we were asking for too much, but the flavors were generally light [at best] and definitely not what I'm used to. Even the nuoc cham tasted watered down...how is that possible? Overall: 2.6 stars. Edible and decent food. The wait staff are quick and personable to the faces they know. If I never had Vietnamese food before the rice plate is filling and good enough to come back for. The pho, however is deceptive - smells great but the taste is watery and lacking.

In fact, I'm pleasantly surprised by their growing menu and their willingness to better themselves by listening to Yelp feedback. You can really feel the spirit of home-cooking and the cozy atmosphere of a locally owned restaurant here. In the best way possible, service hasn't changed - it's still the same friendly owner greeting you with a smile and overall cheerful attitude. You can tell that they are actively growing as a restaurant and I can't help but want to cheer them on! Today, I had their banh mi pho with a side of Chinese donuts to dip into the pho broth. Absolutely delicious and great concept. My constructive feedback is if they can dial in their pho broth (which I already enjoy) to have more in-depth bone broth/spice flavor and less reliance on maybe the salty aspect. I'm excited to see the future of this establishment,
