    This place was super good!!! I am a big fan of pho, and have a couple favorite places in the valley (from phoenix) and this place is definitely now in my top 3! The food was delicious, the noodles were perfect and generous, and the broth was fantastic. I ordered the pho tai. My server was also very friendly and made sure to check in often. I travel to pinetop a couple times a year for work - I will definitely be back. YUM!

    This was my dinner. It came just like the picture in the menu.

    Pho-tasting! So happy to have Pho available here in Pinetop. They just opened and are working out some kinks, but the quality of the food is great. Staff is friendly and service was good and fast. So looking forward to making this a regular place for my family and I.

    Food is good. Unfortunately they do not honor their happy hour that is still advertised online. Went today and was told no after looking at our bill and asking about it.

    I'm not a Pho expert, but I thought it was excellent. The servings are very generous...you can order the kid size. The service was great even if a little slow. Ambiance is "industrial". We did ask them to turn down the volume of the music. Definitely, coming back.

    The place was nice and busy. People were friendly. Even though we arrived before a 10+ party that did not delay the service. There plenty of food and was good. The only negative was the price was a little high for Pho. Glad we tried it and worth a stop to check it out

    I frequent this place when I am in town. It saddens me to see some of the reviews. Yes, the service…read morewas kind of slow to start, but everything worked out in the end. I ordered the green curry with shrimp (extra spicy). I eat dishes with high level peppers... ghost, reaper, etc and I thought the dish lived up to the extra spicy qualification and was very good. Hopefully, the issues stated in the recent reviews are being addressed and the place gets back on track as I try to support small, family run businesses.

    I almost never leave negative reviews, but this experience was so disappointing that I felt it was…read moreworth sharing. A friend and I decided to try this restaurant because we wanted to give it a fair chance, despite its many negative reviews. We ordered the Pad Thai and the Pad Kee Mao. Both dishes arrived with a thin, brown, watery sauce pooling in the bottom of the bowls. From the moment they were set on the table, something seemed wrong. The aroma was unpleasant, and after only a couple of bites, we both knew we couldn't eat them. The flavors were bland and unbalanced, and neither dish bore any resemblance to the classic Pad Thai or Pad Kee Mao we've come to expect. I ordered my Pad Kee Mao "Thai Hot." Despite the menu clearly describing it as spicy, there wasn't even the slightest hint of heat. Our server was very kind and apologetic. She explained she was new and went to get the owner. Unfortunately, that's when the experience went from disappointing to completely unacceptable. The only solution the owner offered was for us to order two entirely new entrées, which we declined. He immediately declared, **"There is nothing wrong with the food,"** without tasting it or addressing any of our concerns. We politely asked to have the meals removed from the bill since we'd taken only a couple of bites, but he refused. He also declined to offer even a partial discount. At that point, we simply said we would pay the full bill and leave. Instead, the owner became increasingly confrontational. He raised his voice and demanded to know where we'd eaten Thai food before and whether we'd ever even been to Thailand, repeatedly telling us that we **"know nothing."** Thai food is one of my favorite cuisines, and I've enjoyed it at restaurants all over the country, so that was an incredibly bizarre response. I've also managed restaurants for most of my career, and I understand that not every guest will love every dish. That's simply part of the business. What matters is how concerns are handled. Never, in all my years in hospitality, would I have dreamed of speaking to paying customers the way we were spoken to. The conversation reached an entirely different level when he looked at us and called us **"IDIOTS"** while we were standing there trying to pay our bill and leave. At no point were we yelling, demanding free food, or causing a scene. We had taken only a couple of bites, couldn't eat the meals we'd been served, and were simply hoping for a reasonable resolution. Instead, we were insulted for respectfully voicing our concerns. When I again asked if we could please just pay and leave, he continued yelling and finally said, **"If you don't pay, you'll be sorry."** At that point, all we wanted to do was get out of there. This review isn't simply about food that missed the mark. It's about an owner who appears completely unwilling to accept feedback and who chose to berate his customers instead of addressing a legitimate concern with professionalism. The food was among the worst Thai food I've ever been served. What made it truly unacceptable, however, was the owner's behavior, which was shockingly unprofessional, openly hostile, and far more offensive than the meal itself. I genuinely hoped this restaurant would prove the negative reviews wrong. Instead, we left understanding exactly why so many people had written them. For the sake of future customers, I sincerely hope the owner takes those reviews to heart. Whether that means revisiting the recipes, investing in better kitchen training, hiring a new chef, or improving the way customer concerns are handled, something clearly needs to change. Otherwise, this restaurant will continue to drive people away and has little chance of improving its reputation.
