    Great service and the food is exquisite. I couldn't find anything wrong if I tried. It makes me feel at home, with lovely lights and decor.

    First time ordering to go. Did not expect this. I was very hungry and the broth was super hot and filled way up for me to put all this together in a car. Grrrrr! The food was decent when I put it together at home. The chicken seemed boiled too long and hard to chew though.

    I'm only giving it four stars instead of five because I don't remember the Sesame Chicken that well--even though it was only two days ago. I know I finished it though. And the Chicken Satay was very good. Some people seem to be disappointed in the Pho and service, but I didn't order Pho and had no problems with the service. I can only speak from my own experience. Therefore... Recommended.

    Props for true to style experience. The value is above and beyond. Big bowls of hot pho. An excellent spot to introduce a novice and new dining experience. Must pho. There are other choices as well but this is hard to resist. I added Tofu and got a quart of broth to go. Excellent!

    A8 - Cheese Puffs, create your own pho bowl with chicken and well done flank.

    My mom and I came to try this for the first time in the area, we have been craving for a delicious broth/soup. We have passed this restaurant a million times and I'm so surprised that we never stopped by before. I'm so glad we did! It was beautiful on the inside, the decorations and how the inside resembles the culture is beautiful and peaceful. Our waiter was really patient with us and helped us out for our order. We got an order of cheese puffs that came with this delicious pineapple sauce! So delicious!! And we shared the X-large pho with beef and shredded chicken and the broth was so amazing. We could not stop talking about it after we left. I really can't wait to come back!! Absolutely loved this restaurant, and the prices were amazing/very affordable!!

    Soup sides!

    I yelped some good pho while I was in the area, Saigon cafe came up and I tried them out. It was busy inside and there were many people being stuffed in/out. The staff was a bit short and curt, but provided good service. This is a 3.5 rounded up to a 4-star. I wanted to consider how busy it was when I was there and how restaurants are all having staff shortages. My main complaint was the appetizer. The A9 app says it is: "Strips of sweet potatoes and shrimp mixed in a tempura batter, fried until golden. Served with tangy fish and pineapple sauce." When it came out it was stacks of sweet potato fries (like frozen in a bag kind) cut into squares with a fried shrimp on top. It looked nothing like the menu photo and was served with some lousy fish sauce stuff. The pho was some of the best I've had though! It came with a giant plate of cilantro and goodies. The chicken and fish tasted great. I loved the broth and the fried onion crunchies in there. If I'm in GA again I would come back here for the pho on a slower night, to see if the experience is better.

    Some parking available right by the restaurant. It does get busy during lunch rush. Some staff wore masks but no social distancing enforced. Good place to grab a bowl of pho when you are in the area. Thai tea: just the right amount of sweetness and the boba is nice and chewy. Spicy basil with chicken: got the lunch special, so it came with an egg roll. Super crispy and warm. The chicken was tender, however, not spicy at all. If you are in a time crunch, definitely go for a bowl of pho instead!

    We went for a late lunch. It was great to see staff fully masked properly. We were seated in a section by ourselves. We felt very safe. The fresh sitting rolls, summer told were delicious. The rate eye of round was equally satisfying. Service was also great. We will return!!!

The flavor was good and the onions were nicely sautéed. The only critique i have for this dish is that the pasta was definitely overcooked, and mushy. Ambiance: decent size restaurant, multiple booths and tables. a spot to take family or go on a date; has really good parking.

From the outside it is modest and easy to miss but inside it feels warm casual and full of life. It has that neighborhood energy where you can tell people have been coming for years. The service is quick and straightforward yet still friendly in a genuine way. The pho is the highlight. The broth is rich and deeply flavorful with a clean finish that shows it has been simmered for hours. It is the kind of broth you keep sipping even after everything else is gone. The noodles are cooked just right and the portions are generous. The meat is tender and fresh and pairs perfectly with the herbs lime and sauces on the side. It is not trying to be trendy or upscale and that is exactly why it works. If you want comforting authentic pho that hits every time this place delivers.

The Phở Tái is my go to menu item and one of my favorites in Metro Atlanta while my wife loves the Phở Rau Cải (veggie pho) with beef broth instead of chicken broth. The broth is a little sweeter than most places, but I think that's what I love about it. The Crispy Fried Duck and the Moo Grob Pad Ped (Pork Belly) are also excellent. The Panang Chicken or Shrimp Curry is another favorite of mine and the Pork Chop plate is very filling. My wife tends to get the veggie stir fry with tofu as well as the veggie spring rolls. But if you are looking for something packed with exceptional flavor, the minced pork GRA POW is a must try! The cashier, who also happens to be the only server, is also the chef/owners wife. Great people! They have treated me like family since my very first visit. She is extremely hospitable and very personable. Whenever my mother is in town she LOVE coming here simply to see her and enjoy their food. I get a huge greeting every time I walk in the door and she always asks how my mom and wife are doing when I'm by myself. I truly feel like an honored guest whenever I dine here. If I'm being real, there are a few menu items that are a miss for me (such as the calamari), but overall I enjoy their menu of family recipes very much. She is Vietnamese while he is Thai, which is reflected in their menu. Enjoy! PS - I had to search for and upload a few pics from my computer files that I've taken over the years. Still can't believe I've never posted a review or pictures. You ever have that happen to you?
