This place is very clean and decor is well put in an old school Asian way. The lighting is pretty dim and the huge space makes you feel a little bored. The owners were too busy chatting with the customers at one table that other customers were feeling a little out of place.
Anyway, the basil, lemon and bean sprouts for the pho was amazingly fresh. The lemon was perfectly ripe, basil was not wilting, and every single bean sprouts had their ends trimmed....it's pretty amazing how much detail they put into their vegetables. The pho was pretty good and the best part was that there was so much meat in it. The rice dish was ok but the portion was very small. The spring rolls...I've never seen such tiny spring rolls but the flavors were very nice.
I have to tell you about their bathroom. It was nice, clean, and spacious. I don't know about the men's side but lady's bathroom is one of the nicest I've seen in a public location. They even use the bath & body works hand soap.
*Location = convenient, right across the street from Lee Lee's Market
*Price = on the expensive side for pho
*Decor = traditional nice...you don't have to feel like you are compromising your standard for niceness just b/c you want pho
*Service = efficient but it would be nice if the owners treat every customer equally
Would we go back? Sure
Is this our first choice for pho? No, we still prefer Pho Ao Sen overall
