| - We came for Sunday lunch here. It wasn't even half full. The lady greeted us and asked of we'd like hot or cold tea. We asked for cold, since it was so warm. She brought the tea and gave the four of us, 3 menus, she said there wasn't enough for one each.
We ordered a large & medium special Pho, Grilled Pork Vermicelli, Tripe only medium Pho and 2 pork Belly Skewers. The Pho Broth is really light and bland. Not much depth in flavours and not aromatic, it's fine if you like plain food but I prefer a more robust broth. There isn't a choice of fresh or dry noodle, they just have one kind. My son ate the vermicelli and said that it was good. The pork belly skewers were very good, juicy and not burnt at all. They were the highlight of the meal.
As for the superior service that everyone has mentioned, we didn't receive it. The lady was overwhelmed and it was hard to flag her down. She was pleasant when we did get to interact with her. The teapot was tiny and held 5 cups of tea, my kids were parched. We weren't offered any more liquid during our meal. So it was a good job that we were heading to Coco straight after.
The young guy totally ignored us, they need more staff here as it was barely half full and hard to get service. I don't think I'd ever return for Pho, the size is small too and pricing is quite high. Seems a lot of these Yelp reviews are not genuine......
