| - The food here was great, the rest...eh. I am not a huge soup for dinner person, but the brisket (#1) pho was perfect. Very much a meal. Liked the sauce options as well. Not realizing the size I ordered the combo with the sandwich, ( combo #10 I think). Lovely crusty baguette with delicious fresh French inspired herbs. A little heavy on the mint for my preference, but overall tasty.
The down side was the atmosphere. From the outside I was apprehensive, though the place was packed. Inside wasn't much different. The tablescape reminded me of a take out resuaraunt where they really don't want you to stay. I went with hubby, the kids, and another family. They couldn't fit us at 1 table so we separated. Not a huge deal but FYI if you have a large group (there were 10 of us.)
I was slightly frustrated that our meal came out before we got any drinks. If I wanted the food that fast, it would have been amazing. I think if we would have timed them from the time our order was taken to receipt of food.... 90 seconds? Really not sure how they did that!! My preference is to relax at dinner though, so beyond the sheer amazement of the speed, I was not impressed. We did have to ask for our drinks several times but beyond that the service was ok.
Overall, an excellent place for takeout would be my recommendation.
