this is my second time coming back. i can't remember much about the first time except it was cramped inside. this time we sat on the patio because my friend brought his dog. *note to dog owners: your dog is welcome since they have a patio!* however, the patio is also next to the trash from the neighboring building. much to my pleasant surprise it didn't smell.
this place is similar to other pho places that it's small and not the cleanest of places, but that's how pho places are. the surprise was the restroom, which was quite clean!
i got bun (vermicelli) with a fried spring roll and beef wrapped in herbs. the spring roll was the worst spring roll i ever had in my life. it looked really ODD and tasted like a bad egg roll from a chinese fast food joint. the bun and veggies were fine and normal. the beef wrapped in herbs was fine too.
i also got the banh xeo (this egg crepe with bean sprouts, a bit of pork and shrimp inside). it was really good! crispy the way i like it. i recommend it.
so would i come back? yah, i'll just order something else as my entree. my friends' dinners looked more appetizing and they got rice and soup noodles.
