Also it had that hallmark delicious Chinese food taste (probably msg) that I love! The egg drop soup I got was delicious as well. It was almost eerily quiet while i was here. Some music would probably help. I was the only person eating here the whole time I was in, but a few pick up orders did go out. I'm def coming back here if I'm in the area though because the food was delicious. Also I tested their water (which tasted good) and it rang 17 ppm (the reader goes 1-600, 600, 1 being pristine) which is pretty clean. :)

Picked up a Regular Spring Roll and a Grilled Pork Banh Mi to go. The Spring Rolls were fresh with…read morelettuce, shrimp, pork and vermicelli noodles. It was served with a peanut sauce. They tasted fresh and delicious as a great way to start the meal. I also ordered a grilled pork banh mi. The sandwich tasted great and had a nice balance of sweet and heat with the jalapeños. It had generous amounts of pork, pickled carrots, cucumbers, cilantro and jalapeños. Together, the flavors came together nicely. It is one of the best ones I've had. The ambiance was modern, nice and clean. They had nice background music playing. The employees that waited on me were nice and friendly. Their service was also good. Looking at the menu, they offer several noodle and rice dishes as well as pho. I like the number options available and look forward to trying other menu items in the future.

Solid 3.5/5. Food…read more(2.5-4/5). We had 4 grilled pork vermicelli with egg rolls, 1 pho tai with beef meatballs, and 1 spring rolls. Vermicelli was a 3.5 as it was fresh and a good serving (4) but the grilled pork was on the cooler side and didn't taste as crisp and fresh off the grill as you'd expect (3). Best part of the pho was the broth as it wasn't too salty like it can be sometimes elsewhere (4). Veggies were super fresh. Sliced beef was previously sliced and the whole chunk was placed in so you had to tease apart the slices from each other which was a little different than my experiences elsewhere. SKIP THE SPRING ROLLS. Picture had three shrimps/roll. Ours had 1/roll on one side with a slice of pork (I think) on the other. Seemed pretty skimpy if you ask me (2.5 at best). Service was good (4). Location was in a small strip mall with a Mexican and Indian place next door. The bars over nearly the entire front storefront were definitely interesting. For an out-of-towner, this part of Kent seems like a Santa Ana/Westminister/Garden Grove of OC, CA kind of an area with different ethnic offerings up and down the street.

My friends and I met up here for lunch this past Saturday. one of my friends doesn't live to far…read moreand has been. We made the mistake thinking it was open at 11 on the weekend but they open at noon luckily enough a few stores were open and we were able to waste some time before lunch. We were seated quickly and given water which was filled often. We went three stars and shared three dishes. PAPAYA SALAD (SOM TOM), PHAD KEE MAO (DRUNKEN NOODLES) and I believe the TOM YUM FRIED RICE with tofu. I like how thin the papaya is for the salad. The spice level at three was perfect for us enough of a kick but not taking away from the flavor of the food. Space is warm and welcoming, lots of seating. Definitely would stop by when in the area again.

First time here and it already made it onto my top 5 favorite Thai restaurants in Washington!…read more A friend recommended we meet for lunch here and all 3 of us not checking the hours assumed they opened at 11 but of course we came on a Sunday... at 11 only to realize they opened at 12! We looked around other spots to eat at and ultimately decided to wait it out despite our grumbling tummies (or maybe it was just me)! We walked around the area and ended up in Daiso next door killing time and I picked up some art supplies to my ever growing pile. Finally it was open and we walked in, got sat, the staff were very friendly and smiling the whole time. Of course I thought we would be ordering at least 4-5 dishes to share but we ended up with a papaya salad with prawns (they are huge!), Chicken Pad Kee Mao, and the Garlic Fried Rice. Usually when it's me and my husband we always have to order our OG 3 dishes when we try a new spot but obviously I wasn't with my husband so we made a mutual decision and BOY THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The portions are pretty dang big! I don't think I've ever ordered a papaya salad on my own but the prawns? Did I already mention how big they were? Sheesh. The Pad Kee Mao?? I've had a few at different restaurants and really thought I just didn't like it and it wasn't my thing but I shoved a forkful into my mouth and immediately texted my husband saying we need to come back here like ASAP. It was so delicious! Something about it made me think "oh yea this is definitely what I expect when I think of Pad Kee Mao". I saved the best for last. GARLIC Fried Rice? Why have I never tried such a dish? (Hubs and I usually order Pineapple Fried Rice)... but holy moly. My love for garlic can keep a vampire away for miles! Best. Garlic. Fried. Rice. I'll definitely be back despite the fact I live an hour away but that's not going to hold me back.

This restaurant easily stands out as a top tier choice choice for pho in WA. Even with a bit of a…read morewait, the impressive portions make this a must visit spot for a comforting meal. P10 Pho (Steak, Brisket, Meat Balls, and Tripe) (5/5): Hands down one of the best pho I've had. The bowl was packed with a tremendous amount of different beef cuts, and the meat to noodle ratio actually leans heavily toward the protein, which is a welcome surprise. The soup stays consistently hot throughout the entire meal, likely thanks to the stainless steel bowls they use, ensuring every bite is just as delicious as the first. Logistics Tip: Arriving on a weekend morning shortly after opening is a great way to secure a table, but keep in mind that the service can be a bit slower if there's only one waitress.

Nice dining room and they paid constant attention to any tables that had turned over to make sure they cleaned it very quickly. I was there for about 45 minutes and they had a steady line of people and food delivery people picking up orders. The menu had a lot of different options. I went with spring rolls and brisket pho. The broth was absolutely incredible. The portion size was perfect, not overly huge like you get at a lot of places. The sliced vegetables were fresh and delicious. The two people waiting on customers were great. Very kind and professional and worked hard to make sure that things were clean and the orders were all accurate. Great Value and I highly recommend it. Looking forward to my next visit.

That said, the food didn't quite meet my expectations, especially considering the prices. The pho broth was on the sweeter side, which may be a preference for some, but wasn't my favorite. I also ordered a banh mi sandwich and was disappointed that the bread wasn't warm or toasted. Overall, the ambiance was the highlight of the experience, but I'm not sure I'll be back.

Authentic, delicious, and reasonably priced…read more I really think this place is underrated and I don't understand why. The food is very authentic with all the traditional Vietnamese flavour you expect from a family operated establishment. The grilled pork is juicy and flavourful, the Banh Mi' has a crunchy outside and a fluffy inside with all the great taste you expect from a quality sammy. I ordered the grilled chicken rice dish and loved every bite. The grilled pork spring roll was super fresh and is honestly one of the best I've had in a long time. Give this place a try when you're in the area, focus on the food and you'll be pleasantly surprised how good it is. Note: the bad reviews are from people who consistently bash and trash on Yelp. The best reviews are coming from Yelpers with Vietnamese last names. Who do you trust more when reading a review on Vietnamese food, Karen Smith or Tram Nguyen?
