    They close at 7 pm (right during dinner time). Unfriendly and very odd. We were about to walk in only to have the door shut in our face. We were in the area and had hoped to get pho takeout for dinner. We were not even trying to dine in. Nope. Not possible. Which restaurant closes at 7 pm on a Thursday night?

    Fried spring rolls

    Ordered the pho with steak and tendon plus an extra side of tendon, and they did not hold back -- super generous portion! The broth was clean and flavorful, the steak was tender, and the tendon had that perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture. Also grabbed the crispy pork spring rolls -- golden, crunchy, and delicious with the fish sauce. Service was quick and friendly, and prices are really fair for how much food you get. If you're a tendon fan, this place is a must. I'll definitely be back for the pho and to try their Vietnamese iced coffee next time.

    Ambiance: (5/5) Great building with parking right outside. Price: (4/5) The pho is a little more expensive than others in the area. Food: (5/5) The pho broth is so complex. It has great flavors even without any additional sauces. Best pho I've had in this area. Service: (5/5) Food comes out quick and staff is very nice.

    My parents and I stopped by for dinner this past Friday evening. FYI, they close pretty early at 7 PM. 19. PHO TAI NAM GAU GAN SACH (L) - 14.95 This pho comes with eye round steak, flank, tendon and tripe. Upon first sip, the broth was well-seasoned but doesn't contain a rich or deep ox-bone flavor. As I continued to drink the broth while eating the noodles and meat, I found that the broth was getting unpleasantly salty. I was also reaching for my cup of water after every bite. My parents' broth wasn't as salty so it's definitely somewhat inconsistent? The meat quality here is quite good and they give you a fair amount. The noodles were perfect in texture. The servers here were nice and we were in and out the door within 25 minutes. Great for a quick meal, but hopefully the pho broth isn't as salty next time.

    A lot of options with good taste and no msg aftertaste. The service was lacking where you have to flag them for your water refills even though they're not busy and they're kinda just sitting there, staring at you. Also had to flag staff for toilet paper as the restroom was completely out. Kid-friendly location. Prices were high for the ambiance (or l

    Looks like a hole in the wall from the outside, but the food was really good and service was super fast! Would definitely stop by if Im in the area again.

    Vermicelli with grilled pork
    Scott W.

    This is a non-descript place with ok food. If you want to eat and aren't looking for "wow" then this place is fine. For me, the flavor just wasn't there. There's free parking and the staff is friendly enough. The setting was clean and comfortable and I think the customer base is folks looking to eat. My vermicelli with grilled pork had a lot of meat, but the meat was tough and had no flavor. I found that disappointing. My wife's pork chop was so so.

    My boyfriend and I have been on a journey to find the best pho place within 10 minutes of us. So far this spot takes the cake out of the 5 places we've been. The broth is delicious and is what deserves the 5 stars. We also had a vermicelli noodle bowl and the summer rolls. All equally yummy!! I'll 100% be back.

    Pho

    Crowded, not super clean, service is poor, however.... Best Pho in the NOVA area. Broth is great and hot, meat is tasty and plentiful, noodles are great with a good chew and flavor. Salt level is good.

    I ordered the vegetarian pho with veggies and tufo. The broth was very bland and the tofu was nothing to rave about.

    Their fish sauce is delicious

    How could I have missed this awesome pho shop? Broth is delicious, meats are high quality, noodle dishes are A+, rice dishes are craymazing. Finally introduced friends to this place, all.were impressed with the quality and flavor. Noodle and rice dishes are pretty hefty - I think they're large enough to split between two people. Prices are reasonable for the area, and seriously, the food is really good!

    #17 Pho and Pork spring Rolls
    Lily C.

    This is a no-frills Vietnamese restaurant with the variety of menu options but the main staple being pho. You can get many different beef toppings in a small, large, or extra large bowl. They even offer chicken pho. The broth comes out piping hot and bursting with flavor! I didn't have to use hoisin or sriracha sauce in my bowl, although I do like to use them as a dip for my meats. If you're not feeling soupy, they do offer rice and vermicelli with grilled meat entrees too. I didn't see a whole lot of options for vegetarians though. The Vietnamese iced coffee barely filled the cup and the flavor was a bit lacking. I do recommend the coconut drink though! The service was ok as I don't really expect much from casual Vietnamese restaurants, to be honest. When we entered, a server asked how many from across the restaurant and pointed to a table, in which I sat in a ripped booth chair. He dropped off menus at the table, and come back shortly after to take our order. No one stopped by to see if we needed anything or how we were doing but it was fine. We received our appetizer spring rolls at the same time as our pho bowls. The restaurant isn't too big and became crowded really quickly. I even noticed a line at the door by the time we left. There's a few parking spaces out front but other than that you'll probably have to park in the street.

They had a good selection of alcohol and non-alcoholic drinks. They had a 5-course tasting menu for $75 (also a vegetarian version) or all you can eat for $88 (Monday to Thursday). A lot of the appetizers had shellfish, so just read carefully. They do have a few options that don't include. Ordered the Risotto and it was absolutely DELICIOUS (my friend added scallops). Dessert was Yucca cake with ice cream which had an amazing combination of flavors. I'd come back to try their other dishes and drinks. Overall happy with the experience. (We had a reservation for 7pm). You don't have to wait for your whole party to get seated which was nice (at least for under 4 people). Seemed ADA friendly.

Hoang Viet Restaurant can be hard to spot, as it's inside one of the little indoor shopping complexes in the corner of the broader Eden Center complex, right across the street from Happy Lamb Hot Pot. However, if you are lucky enough to find this shop, prepare to be wowed with some of the best and most authentic Hue cooking in the DMV. This no-frills restaurant centers on Central / Northern Vietnam, with a particular focus on Bun Bo Hue, a super flavorful spicy beef and pork noodle soup with a rich, spicy broth and tons of mix-ins. I'm still dreaming about their bun rieu, a beautiful crab and shrimp noodle soup that comes with a generous helping of chewy rice noodles, tender and juicy shrimp, and a deeply flavorful, slightly spicy, and slightly sour and tangy broth made with tomatoes and crab. It comes topped with fresh scallions and green onions, as well as a few fried onions for a bit of crunch. The service is efficient and friendly, and the food comes out incredibly quickly. When you're done eating, you can walk up to the cashier to pay.

We also got the Bún bò Huế which is a noodle dish with different cuts of pork and beef, a shrimp paste meatball, pork blood and rich broth. We also got lettuce, mint and limes to go on top of the soup which added a nice freshness to the whole bowl and changed the flavor in a great way.

The seafood bird's nest dish had minimal portions of seafood -- four small shrimp, two small scallops, and three small pieces of squid with less-appetizing pieces of vegetables -- all for $23! Moreover, the shaky beef dish was dipped in baking soda or baking powder, making the dish tastes quite bitter.The bitter taste could hardly mask the fact that the beef cubes have been sitting around for a few days --the meat were partially rotting. Three dishes cost us $71. including tax, We left the restaurant still feeling hungry.
