I'm from California too.. The only negative thing I have about what I ate was that my bowl wasn't hot. It was warm, not hot where I'd need to cool it off. It's not a big deal for me but for some people.. they'd want it hot hot. Aside from that.. pho was great. I'd come back again if I make my way here. Ohh one more thing.. the pho isn't sweet! There were a few places that would put so much rock sugar in their broth that it ruins everything for me. So, if you like it sweet.. go find another restaurant. This restaurant made it right!

I ordered a Large Beef Pho, that costs almost $20 (includes tax), and requested Meatball, Tendon, and Tripe (per the menu that allows you to select up to 3 cuts of meat). Instead, I was only given 2 cuts: steak and brisket, which was not what I asked for. First and last visit from me since the restaurant can't be bothered to provide correct orders. I rate a pho restaurant on how authentically Vietnamese the food is and how the restaurant appears, being a Viet born from Saigon myself. I still ate the pho because I already paid for it, and it was just average at best. The broth was lukewarm, noodles were too al dente for my preference, and the best part of the pho was probably just the steak. When I visited the restaurant, there were several tables filled... but I noticed there was only maybe one Asian customer.. Typically, if you go to a good Asian restaurant, you'll find customers with similar ethnicity dining in, which hints at the quality and authenticity of the food. Their menu also didn't list a special pho or "pho dac biet" compared to other restaurants I've been to, which usually is a combination of listed ingredients, and my go-to so I can taste a bit of everything. Maybe it's their "Combo w/all cuts" but that doesn't tell me what comes with it. The service was nice enough. I was greeted when I arrived and my order was taken correctly, but somehow made incorrectly. I had high hopes for this place, since it's close to the mall and I like the name of the restaurant. But with my order being made incorrectly and the pho tasting average, I'll pass on coming back here again.

But Capitol Market is very local to me and I've shopped there a few times over the last year or so.

The checkout area can get a little crowded with peeps coming in and out the door. PS - The last time I was in, the restaurant next door was open and whatever they were cooking smelled delicious. Note to self: come back to the restaurant and try some pho.

I ordered the grilled chicken vermicelli bowl, which was a generous portion filled with noodles, vegetables, and chicken. It was good, but not exceptional. The chicken lacked a distinct grilled flavor. However, the standout feature of the dish was the sweet fish sauce. It was incredibly delicious and definitely the star of the dish. The service at Pho 102 was mediocre. While not unfriendly, it lacked the warmth and attentiveness that makes a dining experience enjoyable. I had to get up and ask for a takeout container and my bill, which made me feel like I was forgotten after my order was delivered. An offer to refill my water or a check in to see how the dish was would have made a big difference. Overall, I'm not sure if I'll return to Pho 102. There are many other pho joints in the area, and I'm more likely to try a place that offers better service and a friendly smile.

The peanut sauce that accompanied it was very sweet and thin, and both rolls fell apart as soon as I took the plastic wrap off. The pork bao was different than any other Ive had, it reminded me of a jelly donut in both color and tastes. Again, a little sweeter than I'd like but the dough was amazing. Finally, the noodles. The chicken was really tasty, the sauce was good, and the portion was quite large. Altogether pretty good.

The pork wasn't grilled, it tasted like it was microwaved, there was no flavor at all, the veggies were limp, there was no jalapeño or anything and no Vietnamese mayo, the only good part was the bread. We ordered three sandwiches, one for each of us and one for our son. We just shared the 1, and gave most of that to our dog. We brought the other 2 home. My son took a bite and couldn't eat any more of it. And he eats everything lol I absolutely hate wasting food and money like this. I was really, really looking forward to a bahn mi sandwich. I'm having oral surgery in a week and won't be able to eat them for a very, very long time, maybe never again. We live in Aberdeen and were in town for a doctor's appointment, and our usual spot is closed on Thursdays. So I found this place on yelp. Huge disappointment. And I'm bummed that I have to leave this review because the service was great. The gentleman at the counter, who took our order and cooked our food was super friendly and nice. And maybe the other food there is good, but if you're looking for a bahn mi, go somewhere else. It was literally the worst we've had.
