    Entrance
    Jim C.

    We were looking for a semi-healthy lunch after having indulged in BoJangles the previous day and this came up in a search, turned out to be next door to our AirBnB. The steamed gyoza, pho, and mi xiao we had were all really tasty. Service was quick and attentive. Great place to stop by for a healthy lunch or dinner if you're in the area.

    Brisket pho

    Easily the best Vietnamese in town. Best I've had in a long time. We ate the chicken poring rolls, brisket pho, and bbq pork, and the food was so fresh and bright. Great depth of flavors. Will be back

    Thai Matcha Boba

    Their food is always the best. Anyone trying to say otherwise just to troll should be removed from this Yelp app. Their food is always fresh. Even their sauce in the meal I tried today was perfectly balanced, the fish sauce was hardly noticeable. Which is perfect. I also loved seeing that they now have green Thai tea. I have and will always be their fan since they have opened. The people who run this place are also the best.

    Every yummy and well priced food! I came back two days in a row! That should show for something, seriously. The service is beautiful, very nice and authentic people. I cannot rave about this place more!! And don't get me started on the boba drinks, oh my goodness 10/10

    Soap suds!!!

    I've had my share of pho/Vietnamese meals. I'm in the middle of some Tennessee not close to any metro city... And this is some of the best pho I've ever had BUT one negative... The bowls are not properly rinsed of dish soap. I can taste the soap it in the both.

    chicken and steak hibachi

    very nice atmosphere. very polite staff. the food tasted amazing. meet the minimum char req

    Brown sugar boba tea
    Robert B.

    This place is extremely close so if I have an immediate craving and want to avoid going to exit 4 on I-24 for Vietnamese food this place will fill the bill. It is nice and great for family dining. Parking is not a problem either. So now to the food critique of what we had. The first one was beef pho. The broth had too much of a cinnamon flavor for my taste and was also a little too sweet. The amount of noodles was great compared to other pho places in Clarksville. The beef also seemed to be of lower quality. The second entree was the vegetable tempura. No complaints as the tempura was excellent. The vegetable variety was good although the absence of sweet potato a bit surprising as it was definitely missed. Finally, We had the brown sugar boba tea. While tasty some of the boba was undercooked in the middle. Overall my rating is a strong 3. The service on par with others so nothing to raise this a 4. Worth another visit just to try different entrees.

    Chicken hibachi & the spring rolls. Delicious!
    Eliza R.

    I love this place and order from here all the time. I can't tear myself away from their fresh spring rolls - the peanut sauce is addictive! I get the Hibachi chicken and occasionally the steak. Both are excellent. I'm not a fan of the chicken pho but that doesn't affect my review simply because the main entrees are spot on. The service is fast and friendly. I just wish they weren't closed on both Tuesday and Wednesday.

    Cheesy J’s - J-Avocado toast with micro greens and prosciutto

    Cheesy J’s

    3.2(26 reviews)
    2.6 mi

    It is with some measure of disappointment that I visited and write a review for Cheesy J's. Based…read moreon their menu and my love of crispy toasty cheesy sandwiches, I had fairly high hopes, despite the fairly mediocre Yelp ratings. But I'm afraid I need to confirm that my hopes were unjustified. First, some good bits. The staff was super friendly and helpful, though with an establishment (like this) where you stand in line and order at the counter, staff quality doesn't enter as much into the overall impression of a place as with a sit-down full-service establishment. As senior citizens, we got a 15% discount, which is a substantially larger discount than we generally see for seniors. The pickles were pretty good. My wife said that her pickles were the best part of her meal. For me, the pickles and the cream soda were kinda tied for goodness. The washroom was pretty clean. The eating area was nicely set up and I didn't notice any un-bussed tables (though it appears that diners are expected to bus their own tables, which I did). And now, the rest. My wife had The Dip, Wet. First, we were a bit confused that ordering "Wet" meant that they would put the Jus on in the process of constructing the sandwich, rather than providing Jus with the sandwich for dipping. But the staff was happy to provide a container of Jus. She found the sandwich overall to be sufficiently "meh" that she asked me whether I really wanted to take the leftover half sandwich home. I thought that since it wasn't actively bad, I'd go ahead and finish it later. I had Cheesy Brisket. I thought it was kinda OK, though the meat was not nearly as tender as I expect from a brisket dish. (My first bite, I couldn't fully bite off a piece of the brisket, so the entire slice slid out of the sandwich.) My wife thought that the meat tasted bad. I thought that the taste was OK; it was just that it could have stood some additional cooking time to get tender. Oh, the best part of the sandwich was the crispy cheesy bits around the edge. Both came with a "taste" or sample of their tomato soup. This was useful, as we both now know that we would not be happy buying the tomato soup. I don't think that it is Campbell's, but I think that the quality of taste is comparable. My wife had the combo with a side of cole slaw which was not horrible, but she didn't eat very much of it. I had the combo with a side of Mac & Cheese. For me, freezer section Mac & Cheese from Stouffer's is pretty good and I give it a solid 3 stars. And, for me, the Kraft box with the orange powder is a solid 1 star. This was somewhere in between. I had a few bites of it, but it wasn't worth eating or taking home to eat later. Their drinks are mostly Pepsi products, plus Iced Tea (sweet and non-sweet). I started off with unsweet tea, which I found to taste a bit odd and weak. So I dumped it out and got the cream soda, which was pretty good. In summary, while Cheesy J's is not actively bad, I don't see myself choosing to return. P.S. I didn't notice until I got home that the menu they gave me does not have all of their sides listed. Not sure whether anything else might be missing. P.P.S. I didn't notice until later that I was charged $1.16 for "Advantage Program". Unsure what this is, as I didn't order it.

    Customer service was stellar when I visited. It was well lit and there's a mix of seating perfect…read morefor catching up with friends or relaxing with family. I appreciated the amount of cheese oozing out of my sandwich and the burst of flavor from my Rajin Cajun. My family member was equally satisfied with the brisket. You get picked and a little cup of tomato concoction for dipping. The sweet potato fries had a nice buttery taste and comes with a sweet icing (but doesn't need it). Next time I'll try their potatoes. If you're concerned about price points, this one is strictly about the convenience-not a value meal. Enjoy

I don't always like to try other pizza places and rely on trying something new when it is served at someone's house. You all know what I am talking about when it comes to spending your dime to go out to eat. Well, I am glad I finally tried Chris' Pizza Village because I found a new place for my combination pizza. Now Pizza is a matter of preference for most people, me included. Do you like thick, do you like thin, Chicago or New York? However you may prefer one over another I am more of the person that likes what is on top of the crust. This is why I am so pleased with the pizza I got here and the price. I tried this place twice before giving a rating because another quality is consistency. If I am ordering pizza for guests I want to make sure it comes hot on delivery and tastes just like it did the first time I tried it. Well, no problem here because both times our order came without complaint and cooked to perfection with no skimping on the ingredients. Try this place and let me here what you think? Considering the price, the ingredients, and size I not ordering from anywhere else. Others can continue to spend their money elsewhere bi I won't. Great job, friendly service, and local, not corporate.

The website just says closed, but seems to imply that it is just for the day. But no phone number seems to indicate more than that. Not a good omen for a take out pizza restaurant....
