The food here is always consistent. I order the spring rolls, crispy egg rolls and a beef pho every time I go. The staff aren't particularly talkative but they are quick to greet you and food hits the table fast. The same guy that served me my first time is still here and doesn't look like he's aged these last 16 years. I also believe I'm the first guest he's smiled at. LolThis is my favorite pho spot in Arizona and trust me I've been to plenty. The dining room is rather quiet, no music just light talking amongst tables. It's usually busy everyday. Sadly they are closed on Tuesdays and Fridays so make sure you don't try those days. Cheap, delicious, and a must have in Phoenix. As long as I live here I will always be a loyal customer

I think that was a bit rude to withhold just the one order. It made it a bit awkward at the table. A couple tables that ordered after us were still served before the last guy in our party. My food was fine. However, their bahn mi has a giant cucumber slice that ruined the sandwich a bit. We're used to cucumber slices instead of a whole cucumber spear in the sandwich, but I guess that is just personal preference. The plate I ordered is probably not popular (#64) since she had to re-check the menu when I ordered. All of it tasted fine, though. No one ever came to refill our water or check in if we needed anything else. I'll probably pass on this place next time there is an invite. Maybe I'll try the other Vietnamese spot down the street near Popeye's the next time I get a hankering for some Pho or Bahn Mi.

The spring rolls were delicious, fresh, and the peanut sauce on the side gave it a good touch. The egg rolls were hot and crispy. The pork fried rice was flavorful and more then enough for us three to share. The pho's were both really good. The broth was served hot, had really good flavor, and was served with a lot of noodles and meat. Service was good. They had people going around picking up plates as we were done with hem.

We came around 12:30 PM on Saturday and our orders came out pretty quickly. We got the pho tai (rare steak), goi ga (Vietnamese chicken salad), and the fried pork egg rolls. The pho was just okay. The broth was pretty bland and lacked a depth of flavor but the noodles were a good texture and the portion was good for the price. The egg rolls were crispy and good but nothing super special. The goi ga was my favorite!! Refreshing, light, flavorful, and the portion was HUGE. I got a medium and couldn't even finish it all and for only $10 it was such a steal. I would 100% come back for the goi ga and would love to try some of their other dishes since it's so affordable but I wouldn't get the pho again.

While we looked at the menu, I couldn't decide what alcohol I wanted, spirit, beer, sake, wine, etc.. finally order sake bomb with Asahi and the bartender came over and let me sample one of the sours - just cause! I'm awesome! Thank you! Wish I had room to order! For dinner we did: - Filet Spring Roll - Chuck Norris Spring Roll - grandma Trans firecracker wings - Crispy Rice on sizzling plate with Filet My words cannot describe how amazingly delicious it all was. The spring rolls were equally filling, flavorful, refreshing, and savory! Flavor explosion! The firecracker wings drenched in the spicy sauce was so good, we kept dipping some of our kids fries in the sauce! Lastly the Crispy Rice dish with filet, WOW! A bite of that, with some broth on the side. I couldn't easily swear it's one of the most savory dishes I've had in AZ. What a hidden gem! On top of this, as a parent, it's always stressful eating outside of your own home with your kiddos, but the staff/owners were so accommodating, I felt comfortable and grateful! They were so nice and my 3Yo is wild, but they didn't make us feel bad and they continued to smile and even give him a high five as we left. The location is clean and vibey, and we were all comfortable the whole time. So glad this fam came FOB in 1981 and hope they continue to rock it because they deserve it! What a great location and so glad we went. Can't wait to go back.

The place is very clean inside, nicely decorated, and had background music playing (I hate places that are dead silent). A nice spot for me and my girlfriend to enjoy our lunch and talk over a bowl of pho. I was intrigued by the veggie pho because they used baby corn, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and asparagus. I don't really like vegetable broth so I asked if the broth could be their beef broth which they said was ok. My girlfriend had the chicken pho like she usually does and we shared a spring roll. I have to say that I was blown away with how delicious my pho was. It had such a nice clean beef flavor that you love when enjoying pho. The vegetables worked incredibly, but I' sure any of their beef options are stellar (I just wanted veggies). No doubt one of the more memorable broths that's I've had in a long time! My girlfriend's pho was also super flavorful and had a nice aroma as well. She ended up eating all the broth and had a bunch of leftover noodles and chicken. I would really recommend not serving the chicken diced in cubes because you can't get those nice chopsticks full of noodles and chicken. The roll we ordered was good, but probably not something I'd get again. They use filet mignon for it, but I think I would prefer to have them use a less expensive cut and give me 2X the meat. Finally our server Enrique was cool and very attentive and let us know about their Sunday pho special which was great. This place might not be as traditional as the other places where you see the entire family working and have the beat up menus, but it's they definitely make pho worth checking out for yourself.

In fact, I'm pleasantly surprised by their growing menu and their willingness to better themselves by listening to Yelp feedback.

In the best way possible, service hasn't changed - it's still the same friendly owner greeting you with a smile and overall cheerful attitude. You can tell that they are actively growing as a restaurant and I can't help but want to cheer them on! Today, I had their banh mi pho with a side of Chinese donuts to dip into the pho broth.
