    Beef and meatball pho
    Nghet N.

    This place was excellent. Everything was fresh, the broth was rich and full of flavor, and the staff was very friendly. I especially loved that they were generous with the herbs because let's be real, what is pho without extra herbs? A solid 5-star experience all around. I'll definitely be back.

    Food was so good, service was really great, I had the tofu with curry , the hot and sour soup, and crab rangoons; all tasted amazing, everyone loved their dishes.

    Visitors from California and we were super happy with the quality of the pho here! Authentic, super reasonably priced, broth was delicious, serving size of noodles and broth was quite generous despite ordering the small bowl size. All the vegetables including the basil and the bean sprouts tasted extremely fresh. Everything just hit the spot perfectly. Unassuming store front with a small parking lot. Family-owned business, somewhat small and dimly lit but clean and well decorated, friendly and fast service. Would 100% come back!

    Portland is the place where you can find lots of Asian restaurants but when you're in to Vietnamese foods this is the place to be. Very good food and friendly people and the place , even though it's not so big compared to some other Asian restaurants in the area it's nice, clean and very well decorated. Me and my wife both have pho and the broth is ver hot which is so important for the soup and superbly well seasoned and the vegetables that you add on your pho they were all fresh. They also offer free soup as a start . As of now they're still pretty cautious because of the pandemic so they're accepting reservations only and take outs too. They have ample parking space even though they're located on one of the busy area and their price is very descent too.If you' re craving for Vietnamese foods I would say this is highly recommended.

    Has not been here in awhile . Was a little chilly in side but they had some small heaters. This is a very comfortable place to be small and cozy. Wish I had read the reviews about the pho before I went. The miso soup that comes with dinner was very flavorful We got the pad Thai it was excellent so of the best around . Service was excellent had a great chat with the waitress she was really welcoming. Will definitely go back and try the Pho.

    Probably the best banh mi sandwich we've ever had. We are no strangers to the banh mi- as we…read moreconsider ourselves foodies who have lived in SF, LA, and other great food cities. However, we were blown away by the sandwiches we picked up here on our way to the airport. (Easy to call and order) For $11 each, the sandwiches were a perfect (and generous) ratio of bread, meat, pickles, jalapeno and sauce. Our hands down favorite was the lemon grass beef which had such good lemongrass flavor. The lemon grass chicken was also good, tasty chunks of satay-like chicken meat. The pork was fine but paled in comparison.

    I'm sure many people in Portland, Maine enjoy this style of Vietnamese food, and I can understand…read morewhy. Coming from the Bay Area in California, though, my expectations are a bit different. Vietnamese cuisine there is typically much brighter and more vibrant, with bold flavors, fresh herbs, and a noticeable balance of acidity, sweetness, and umami. This meal had all of the right components, but the flavors felt much more muted than what I'm accustomed to. My guess is that the recipes have been adapted to better suit local tastes rather than aiming for the more assertive flavor profile that's common in areas with larger Vietnamese communities. If you've never had Vietnamese food before, you'll likely enjoy it. If you're used to Vietnamese restaurants in places like San Jose or the Bay Area, you may find yourself wishing for a little more brightness and intensity. Overall, it was a pleasant meal, just not the style of Vietnamese food I was hoping for.
