I had to take off 1 star because although the pho was delicious with flavor and good proportion of meat to noodles, the Vietnamese iced coffee was too sweet and the rolls I ordered to go were just okay to me in regards to taste and flavor. Overall, if you're craving pho, this is your spot but for the other items, I wasn't blown away. The restaurant was clean with a lot of seating. There's a lot of street parking available.

My lemongrass tofu arrived sizzling in a hot bowl, and possessed an abundance of flavor. It came with a size of aromatic jasmine rice and separate vegetables, some of which I liked and some I did not want, but at least having them separated gave me the ability to choose. My green Thai tea was strongly flavored and something sweet gave me a bigger charge than I anticipated. As I was hungry, adding some rolls was not a bad decision. There is a great vegetarian Vietnamese restaurant in the suburbs, but for anyone who wants to be in downtown Alexandria, this place has some quality to offer.

Ambiance and seating is like other places but the Pho stands out for me. Recommend you map it and go.

(fair warning they do sprinkle some peanuts on there, look out, if you are allergic)! In case you don't want to read the whole thing: 10/10 pho. The portion is so worth it! The flavor is amazing and so hearty yet refreshing. Also I am 99% sure my food came within minutes of ordering because I did not even get the chance to open my book. The way I rate pho, are two things, one, the noodles, and two, the broth's flavor. Noodles: Because nothing hurts more than a yummy broth with some overcooked noodles that breaks when you try to eat them. Pho Saigon Pearl is doing it right, their noodles are perfectly cooked, you can pick them up and they're not clumpy, they don't fall apart (literally God Bless) Broth: bone broth is soooo good for your overall health and every time when I am feeling slightly under the weather, I look for a good ole pho place for some yummy broth. No one wants flavorless and greasy broth, and it's awkward to ask for salt, but LET ME TELL YOU GIRLLLLLL THE BROTH (fantastic give me 14 of em) it is sooooo perfectly seasoned, it is perfectly salty and gives you that beautiful completed flavor of meat and veggies. The ambiance is nice, lots of lighting, clean interior and spacious set up. Overall: 10/10 would recommend. Literally kisses all around because I already feel better I CANNOT wait to come back again!

The pork chop was a good size and while a little tough to cut with the butter knife provided, it was also very good.

The parking was off the street and is free for 2 hours. There were plenty of spots available just at the front of the restaurant. We ordered the Whole Fried Flounder and the Massaman Curry with shrimp and for dessert the Magnolia Creme Crepe. I am partial to good Crepe dessert... and this place offered different selection. A plus! The food was freshly prepared and was very tasty. I would recommend trying this place out. You will not be disappointed.

Always appreciate the minimalist yet still eloquently-decorated aesthetic of the restaurants, complete with a window to view the kitchen, which itself seemed relatively clean and well-kempt. Ordered the Woodear Mushroom and Mint Salad, and the Mogu Shiitake Mixian Ramen. The mushrooms were light and chewy, yet savory with citric and garlicky elements, and overall very refreshing. The ramen was solid in most respects, with a decent variety of vegetables and multiple proteins, including tofu, shiitakes, soybeans and marinated egg (which I enjoyed despite typically not liking hard-boiled egg too much). The noodles were a little bland, however, and didn't taste like they absorbed much of the broth. Overall, I'd say 4.5 stars are more accurate; YbP Noodle House is a regular haunt for me because the quality is there in most respects.
