    In a shopping center with plenty of parking right off the freeway. Great location. Inside has plenty of seating and a nice feel. Service was excellent and very friendly staff. We ordered pork spring rolls with a small bowl of Pho and the grilled chicken and rice. Everything was pretty good except the chicken seemed to be old. I realize you have to cook chicken ahead of time. Otherwise the customer is waiting forever. But this chicken was really dry.

    If you come here looking for a quick lunch, this is the place to go! The food comes out fast fresh the servers are nice and attentive, and the vibe in this place is just really relaxed and try their teas they are really good. I come here a lot so I know what to expect. The pho is great, but I wanted to try something different with the stirfry noodles and they did not disappoint. They go boom.

    1st of rolls hard could not bite thru them

    I ordered spring rolls with grilled pork, before I ordered I asked if they were made fresh and the waitress said yes, she left and not even 2 minutes she was back and my rolls were dry and hard. I called her back to my table And explained they were dry/hard and premade she kindly offered to remake them and returned with a semi warm roll and the 2nd one was the same hard roll. Needless to say do not order the spring rolls they are premade and hard!

    Visited this new location on their soft opening and we are glad there is still a pho restaurant location in this area. Located where Pho'Tastic used to be, the inside is clean and spacious. Parking is not an issue as it shares the surrounding parking lot with the shopping center. Has a large variety of dishes and drinks! (But no che dessert as of yet.) Pho: Scratches the itch but would rate 3/5 (for Corpus standards, probably closer to 4/5 out of the local selection). Broth tastes strongly of spices and a bit watered down. Drinks: They excel at their drinks. Great variety and flavors on point. Their Thai brûlée and Thai milk teas, for example, were sweet (but not too sweet) and no chemical aftertaste that some Thai teas have. Strawberry matcha was light and a nice balance of light matcha milk and tangy sweet strawberry puree. Boba was the perfect bouncy consistency. Would rate 5/5! Overall, would recommend for your Vietnamese food cravings given the local selection and convenient location off of SPID. Will be back to try their other dishes (there are 3 that are weekends-only that we are curious about including banh xeo or Vietnamese pancake, a childhood favorite).

    The food is on point. I had the chicken pho the first day and came back the day after to try their white chicken and rice dish, wish was just as delicious. I plan on going back for the weekend pancake dish.

    Food was great and the serving is more than enough. The place was nice (though we didn't eat there).

    ZERO STARS AND DO NOT RECOMMEND…read more Horrible food, horrible service. When I arrived at the restaurant, there were many dirty tables that had not been bussed. I was seated and my drink order was taken. It appeared they had one server working the entire restaurant, including a party in the side room. Waitress came and took my food order and I did not see her again till she gave me my bill. Ordered a two entrée dinner. Totally not worth the $19 it cost. The chicken and mushrooms and the Hunan beef were served to me cold like they had been sitting in the back for too long. Everything on the plate was dry and lacking sauce. The fried rice and the egg rolls were warmer than the food that was served to me. Everything lacked flavor. I was not even provided soy sauce to try to enhance any of the flavorless food. Up charged for a hot and sour soup that was thicker than any gravy I've ever put on food that I've eaten. Did not eat the soup took about three bites of the food and stopped eating. Waitress gave zero crap about my experience. Charge me $25 for my meal that I barely touched. Never coming back.

    Enjoyed this restaurant the food was delicious. Robert really did a great job. Taking care of all…read moreour needs . Very professionally coming back just For that one dish that you have to go to the same place because you liked it so much of the way they made it.

Well, my "dish to compare" is sweet and sour chicken so that's what I ordered. My wife ordered the Shaken Beef. She also wanted some wonton soup. The chicken inside the fried pieces was so shredded it was actually fluffy inside. I guess if your teeth are painful during eating that's a good thing...but it left me...used to eating palpable meat pieces inside the S&S chicken, this was incredibly disappointing. It was almost flavorless. My wife's beef cubes/pieces were very chewy. By her description (and I tried one piece and concur) it was beef flavored chewing gum. I have to guess it was very well marinated low quality beef. Oh...and we had visitors of the fruit fly variety. They were quite frequent in visiting. The fairly pushy waitperson also put two extra meals on our ticket. Only after we went down the ticket and saw the extra entrés and did she come over to correct it. Left us wondering if she was trying to take advantage of a couple of older people. Speculation, but billing errors leave bad impressions. We won't be back.

Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We ordered crab rangoon and pork eggrolls (I don't eat either so no feedback for that). I ordered just water to drink and it tasted terrible. Not filtered - I guess just straight out of the tap? Not sure but I ended up ordering tea which was fine. Their drinking glasses were lil pitchers which were cute. We asked about the spice level and the waiter said there were no levels - it's just "however the cook feels like it that day". ‍ I got the chicken lo mein, TONS of food for $16. Flavor was good but too oily for me. When the check came around I noticed the cash vs card price. About $3 extra to use a card. Who carries cash these days? They don't have a modern POS machine so they took my card to the back to process. Their tipping suggestions were 15,20,25,30%. Overall, it was okay but I probably won't be going back.
